AMERICAN gamblers win
about $1,314,945 in the
first day's draw in the Irish
sweepstakes. They got back
about HALF as much as they
put in.
Economists will point out
that in the transaction British
exchange benefited to the ex
tent of more than a million dollars.
HERE'S a tip for Hitler, Sta
lin, Mussolini, et al, who
are all badly in need of foreign
exchange to finance purchases
of needed raw materials not
produced in their countries: -Start
a lottery of some sort.
American saps will fall for
It. They fall for ALL the get-rich-quick
schemes.
CPEAKING-of finance, here
are some figures worth di
gesting: Since January of this year,
the U. S. treasury has spent
$2,021,100,497 and has taken in
51,629.591,090, leaving a DEF
ICIT of $1,291,509,406. (Note
that the figures are all in bil
lions). In the same period last year,
the deficit was only $997,939,
596. In other words, we're going
into debt DEEPER THAN
EVER.

Washington, Oct. 21. Among
the anomalies of our haphazard
government, not the least stag
gering is the fact that the great
economic experiments of these
last years have been undertaken
with a minimum of reliable in
formation on the true state of
the American economy.
Up-to-date, representative fig
ures on business conditions, em
ployment trends and the like are
pressingly necessary. The large
staff of new deal economists
have done their best to supply
them in an informal way, col
lecting and arranging the unco
ordinated data available
from government and private
sources. In order to have a con
stant check, Secretary of the
Treasury Henry Morgcnthau, Jr.
long ago made a deal with
twenty-five of the country's big
gest corporations to supply him
secretly with weekly sales and
future orders figures. These are
seen, however, only by the secre
tary and the president, to whom
they are shown every Monday,
during the regular Roosevelt
Morgenthau luncheons.
LET'S BE
FRANK ABOUT IT
0 For a long time, Medford has been
known as a community appreciative
of outstanding musical attractions .
There have always been requests to
bring Medford some of the "big
name" attractions of the concert
world . . .
m. This year Medford will play host to
three of the greatest concert attrac
tions erer presented here names that
are known wherever musle-lovers
gather . . .
m OSSY RENARDY Is undoubtedly the
m0,t sensational "find" In his field
since Jehudl Menuhln flashed on the
scene ... a brilliant 18 year old
Viennese violinist who stood the na
tion's critics on their respective ears
last year . . . and left them limp with
his genius ...
m. DONALD DICKSON Is well known to
rsdlo fans through nis appearances
on the Chase and Sanborn programs
... but he Is even better known as
one of the most talented to say
nothing of being the most handsome
baritone of" the Metropolitan Opera
An n. ...
m. MARIAN ANDERSON, of course,
needs no Introduction. Long before
she became known to the general
public through Mrs. Roosevelt's publie
admiration, this world-famed colored
contralto has been the delight of
music-lovers. Her appearance in Med
ford is unquestionably one of the
biggest events that's ever happened
here ... It will be her only appear
ance between San Francisco and Port
land during the year of 1940.
m, Renardy, Dickson and Anderson . .
there's never been a series like this
before In Medford. And. to be per
fectly frank about it, If Medford turns
out for the series as expected, and
proves that It REALLY DOES WANT
"BIO NAME" ATTRACTIONS ....
next year's series will bring more
world-famed artists here.
m So. IT'S UP TO YOUI Do you want
"big name" attractions? The ONLY
WAY to know is by your response io
season ticket sales, and by your turn
out for each artist's appearand . . .

The fact Is that another chapter la
going to be written In the curious
history of the bureau of forplgn end
domestic commerce. When President
Hoover headed the commerce depart
ment, this bureatt was his special pet
and, when he left the White Houne
tn 193S, It wa a rery great establish
ment. Then President Roosevelt Is
sued his economy orders, and his
first rommerce secretary, old Uncle
Dan Roper, possibly remembering
that most of the Hoover appointees
must be Republicans, bravely cut the
bureau In half. Having gone so far.
Uncle Dan then attempted to Improve
the remains by stuffing a deserving
Democrat Into the bureau here and
there.
Throughout Roper's regime at com
merce, therefore, the bureau was
completely Ineffectual, except for the
work of lta national Income expert.
Robert Nathan, and one or two other
Isolated men. Then, a few months
ago. the president prepared the way
for a reorganl ration by transferring
the bureau's foreign service to the
state department. And now the re
organization Is to be carried out, with
emphasis on building up reliable ma
chinery for reporting on the economic
state of the nation.
The bureau's twenty-sU regional
offices, scattered Insanely across the
countryside, are to be consolidated
Into twelve offices corresponding to
the twelve federal reserve districts.
A career sorvloe of about 1A0 econom
ists, statisticians and analysts Is to
be established.
Tor the first time, the region si
offices will be required to keep In
touch with the main Industries In
their regions, to form confidential
relations with the most representa
tive firms, and to get the full fact
on regional business conditions. The
bureau's Innumerable divisions will
be merged Into three main ones,
under the headings, "industrial,'
"International" nd "research,' and
the bureaus work will be coordinated
with that of the department of agrl
cultures eoonomlats and other neatt
of government thinkers.
The end objective, of course, will
