Business Boom Forecast 7 z
After ten drab years of depression and recession, most
of us undoubtedly are inclined to look with a certain amount}
of skepticism on forecasts of returning prosperity. But despite all this, there is undisputed optimism in the air at_ start
of 1940 — a new spirit of confidence in business circles—
which indicates that both California and the Nation finally
may be on the road back to solvency.
From W. F. Mitchell, Sacramento investment. expert,
‘whose incredibly accurate forecasts of recent years have identified him as ““The Babson of the West,”’ comes a definite proing of the recession when others were still asserting “recovery is here,” and who has been pessimistic to. a fault when
pessimism seemed justified, now boldly predicts a business
boom in the offing. =
Our financial and business indexes.’” reports Mr. Mitchéll, “‘are promising the full dinner pail to business and labor.
How-fully this promise is realized depends to a large degree
upon the extent to which government interferes with business
during 1940. However, the business and financial world is
looking forward to a presidential election year with faith, hope
and charity — faith that 1940 ‘will bring peace on the labor. *
front, and that democracy’s profit system will survive; hope
that the closing days of the New Deal will bring a real and permanent breathing spell for business, and charity for the illadvised experiments of the past.
“England, France, Germany, Russia, Japan, China and
many, other countries are no longer competing with us in the
world trade. And it is obvious that America will become the
foodstore, clothing shop and major manufacturing source for
a world at war. Rising prices are inevitable, bringing to our
farm centers the first real prosperity in several years. This
will undoubtedly assist in awakening the financial world from
its long period of lethargy—and 1940 should be profitable for
American labor, American business and American finance.”
That message, in light of the fact that Mr. Mitchell is
noted for his caution and conservatism, carries the’ ring of real
assurance. Aind there are other sgins and portents which seem
to confirm it. Here’s to 1940!—Contributed.
Legislature Double-Header :
Congress is getting back on the job again, after its brief
holiday, faced with the task of levying new taxes, raising the
limit of the national debt, or cutting appropriations to the bone
in a desperate effort to stem the tide of rising public expenditures. And at Sacramento, Governor Olson has called a special session of the State Legislature for January 29—with_taxation, again, as the major issue.
No one, at this early date, can accurately forecast the
outcome of this “‘legislative double-header,”” but new spending and tax programs promise to be far less popular than at
any other period in the past decade.
President Roosevelt, apparently bowing to the public demand for less spending; has let it be known that he will swing
he economy axe on virtually all budget items. Relief appropriations are due to be slashed to a new low; the CCC and
NYA are likely to be hard hit, and farm benefits face drastic
reductions. Of particular concern to California and_ other
~‘western-states is the fact that reclamation projects—including
Central Valley, Grand Coulee and Colorado
threatened with cuts as much as 50 per cent below what the
Reclamation Bureau considers minimum requirements.
: ’ California, desperately in need of a breathing spell for its
taxpayers, must expect to take the bitter with the sweet. In
all probability, however, sufficient funds can be secured to
continue work on the vital Central Valley Water Project. But
under the circumstances, schemes to add from $50,0000,000
to $100,000,000 to the cost of the big project by providing
for steam power plants and power distribution systems (units
not contemplated in the original act) are expected to meet
speedy rejection if submitted to the legislature. And in light
of probable slashes in federa! contributions toward relief costs,
the legislature may also be expected to see to it that relief rolls
are purged of all chiselers and that relief is granted only to the
needy and deserving. The legislators, from current indications,
are making ready to swing the axe on all unneeded appropriations. And many governmental frills and luxuries are due for
drastic pruning —Contributed.

RED CROSS WILL
MAKE GARMENTS
Mrs. W. C. Perry. Red Cross production chairman, is calling for additional volunteers for the refugee
garment making program to start
year. Her telephone is 593W. ies
Mrs. H. P. Davis, recently returned from visiting relatives in Norway
will give instruction in knitting to any who, feel
the need of it in order to contribute
warmth and comfort to the war Victims of Europe. Mrs. Davis tells interestingly of the beautiful handiLerafts of her native Norway, where
all the local Red Cross chapters are
iow busy turning out knitted garments for refugees and sodiers. Samples of her own work are evidence
of the high standards of workmanship of which she speaks.
A year ago the destitute ones for
whom the Red Cross garments are
destined, were happily celebrating
the Christmas season in their own
homes. After our ‘‘Merry Christmas”
. with good food, heaped with gifts
and pleasures—how better can we
keep the Christmas spirit glowing
than by knitting or stitching it into
warm wool garments for those: who
in one short year have lost so much?
Mrs. Perry says that part of the
wool-and other materials is already
here. and she would like to have the
names of those who will help so that
organization of the work can be-completed without delay after January
first. She hopes that the enthusiasm
of our war days will be revived in
the service of those now in such bitter need. Those who can and will do
this work, please call 593W.-. without
further delay.
Robert Grant, Jr., son of Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Grant of Virgilia, is visiting friends in Nevada City, where

Grant is now superintendent of the
