STEE8E SAYS NO SURE WAY
TO FORETELL RECOVERY
(Fairbanks News-Mner.)
' One nan’s guess is as good as an
other’s as to the time business will
atop descending the valley of depres
sion, will straighten out and then
start climbing the; hill which leads to
prosperity, in th aopinion of General
James .Gordon Rtaese.
Recently from Naw York, the finan
cial heart of the nation, he says wide
ly divergent view* are held there by
lmders.
, There is general unanimity of opin
ion, however, that business can be ex
pected to improve somewhat aa aofai
as oagrees adjourns.
Business is generally hesitant when
Congress is dealing with meaBuree
affecting it, and this year more than
wver, when the Federal deficit makes
■neoeeeary the imposition of heavy new
Bnsiaeos ti waitiag to see just what
$»rm those taxaa will take, said Gen
eral S tec sc.
Peiwonally ha believes in the sales
tax , declaring it to be a much more
affective means of raising needed
revenues than heavy estate and n
cumt taxaa.
Oiee the budget has been balanced,
he looks for a decided improvement
in sentiment. The dollar will be
atraagthened in foreign markets and
industry will be heartened.
General Bteese did not attempt to
Rtnce a Fellyanna glo wover present
conditions. They are admittedly bad
and may conceivably become worse,
tot Ike la set oae of these pessimists
wbo believe, that prosperity is a thing
<rf the pest, eo far as the United
fibeiee ie concerned.
Rome leaders believe recovery will
etart this summer; others believe an
other year of depression must be
and different limits are fixed
hy Still others, but there are few who
d»> not believe a substantial better
ment win take place at net too dis
tant a date.
