Part of t'ue changes result naturally enough from development of plans for submission of new national poll-cles poll-cles to congress which will convene again In about six weeks. The other oth-er part comes from a sudden determination deter-mination by the administration to revise its recovery methods. Possibly the most significant of the forthcoming change In recovery plans is the determination to try, at least, to get away from direct relief. Instead of plain gifts of money, the administration Ig now seeking to find additional means for creating work so that individuals needing help may obtain their relief in the form of Jobs for which the government will pay. Officials still are loath to discuss exact figures, but they are, nevertheless, never-theless, going steadily forward with plans for converting the vast fed era! relief machinery into an extensive ex-tensive program that will embrace such things as slum clearance, low cost housing and rural rehabilitation. rehabilita-tion. Mr. Roosevelt will wait until the last moment before he fixes In his own mind how many hundreds of millions of dollars will be needed to carry out these projects. The total cost obviously will depend somewhat upon how quickly the dole can be abandoned. It may run Into billions of dollars because, according ac-cording to some authorities, removal re-moval from the dole is going to be opposed by certain types of persons. And, it seems, they can hardly be blamed because once the government altered ' its traditional policy and made direct gifts of money it created cre-ated a new psychology and the people peo-ple who benefited thereby quite naturally will be unwilling to have the source of the gifts closed for this easy manner of living. One of the plans under consideration consider-ation as a part of the whole program pro-gram Is provision for employment by direct federal subsidy for housing. hous-ing. Under this plan, the government govern-ment would advance -part of the cost 'for individual homes of low price construction. In keeping with' the theory that the number on relief rolls will descend de-scend In direct proportion to the revival of private construction, advocates ad-vocates of this plan contend that the cost would be less than outright out-right relief. They say that with the government advancing part of the funds needed, private lending agencies would feel more secure and would offer aid In the form of the remainder of the loan necessary. neces-sary. 1 It has long been recognized that recovery cannot be accomplished ; without a tre-Need tre-Need Private mendous Increase Construction ll construction. Private construction, construc-tion, however, will not go forward In a period of uncertainty now no more than It has in other years, and the experts have decided that the government must take the lead In this direction. They have advised ad-vised the President there can be no real upturn in private building operations unless a start is made by the government. Whether this Is the right theory, of course, none can foretell. It may turn out to be the government Is pouring additional ad-ditional funds down just another rat-hole as It has on numerous other occasions in the course of recovery re-covery experiment My conversations conversa-tions with men In both public and private life, men who are qualified to judge, lead me to believe that there will be considerable construction construc-tion resulting from this program. The conclusions which have been expressed to me, It must be said frankly, do not Indicate that there will be any such total of new construction con-struction development under the new administration program as the enthusiastic exponents of the program pro-gram now contend. : There are numerous reasons for these conclusions as they have been explained to me. One of these reasons rea-sons and perhaps the most Important, Impor-tant, Is that no one Is going to build a bouse unless he feels that he can continue to pay for It Another road which the administration adminis-tration Is now following In its ef- ; forts to cause Eating Up money to flow on Bank Loans more freely is the recent ruling easing eas-ing restrictions on bank loans. Heretofore, banks have not been permitted to make loans of more than 10 per cent of their capital and surplus for Industrial purposes to ne borrower. The treasury now has abrogated this provision, long regarded as a sound banking ruling, and has told the banks they can loan more than 10 per cent pro-Tided pro-Tided the amount loaned above 10 per cent ts guaranteed by the Reconstruction Re-construction Finance corporation or the federal reserve system. It tapper ei that on almost 'the same day that the treasury policy was announced, one of the largest banks In the United States reported privately that one of its vice presidents presi-dents had returned from a six weeks' scouting trip in an effort to find places where it could loan money. This man visited important cities In 18 states. He Is a practical practi-cal banker and he is thoroughly acquainted ac-quainted with the means of approach ap-proach to potential borrowers. But his six weeks' tour netted one loan application That bank's report may sound silly sil-ly because there are so many people peo-ple that need money. Yet it must be remembered that a bank Is trustee trus-tee for the funds placed In Its care by Its depositors and It cannot hand out money with reckless abandon. It must feel reasonably sure that there will be a repayment and this was the thing which the bank's rice president failed to find. There were plenty of Individuals and corporations corpora-tions that needed money but they had no security to offer and little to guarantee that they could re-pay the borrowed funds. Financial experts, therefore, are not unduly excited about the latest treasury ruling which was released with much gusto and with statements state-ments that this will free "many hundreds hun-dreds of millions" to business. I am told that the banks are chock-full of loose cash. Reports to the treasury treas-ury certainly indicate that to be a fact But when borrowers who need money have no security and when business Is at such a low ebb that only the minimum of funds Is needed, need-ed, I believe it can hardly be said that the bankers are wholly to blame. The bankers have been vigorously vig-orously criticized in the last four or five years and obviously a considerable con-siderable spanking was due them. On the other hand, I think it Is a plain statement of fact that you can no more force people to borrow than you can make a horse drink after you have led him to the trough. Senator Gerald P. Nye, North Dakota Da-kota Progressive Republican, has started on a speak-Unusual speak-Unusual ng tour that as SpeakingTour ter as I can find, is without precedent prece-dent The senator Is chairman of the special senate committee named to Investigate the munitions, aircraft, air-craft, and shipbuilding . Industries, to determine whether these businesses busi-nesses have been active In foment lng trouble between the nations of the world. The committee has held hearings covering a period of three weeks, and the hearings will be resumed re-sumed later with the prospect that they may run on for many months. Senator Nye is making a series of .six speeches In the United States and one In Canada, dealing with the question of who really starts wars. He has announced that he desires to tell the country how nations are driven into conflict and the inference infer-ence Is, of course, that he believes munition makers and others producing produc-ing material for war are at the bottom bot-tom of the heap. But the point is that Mr. Nye personally per-sonally is an advocate of government govern-ment ownership of all plants now engaged In the production of anything any-thing used in wars between nations. He is authentically reported to have a draft of legislation In mind which he will present to the forthcoming forthcom-ing congress. He Is not alone in holding this belief for at least four other members of his committee commit-tee entertain the 6ame general trend of mind. There are seven members of the committee so that It Is apparent ap-parent the Nye plan will have a majority ma-jority of that committee supporting it If and when It Is presented to the senate. I have examined records rather comprehensively In an effort to discover dis-cover whether ever before any senator sen-ator or member of the house had gone out to the country with an appeal ap-peal for support of legislation under un-der a circumstance such as this. The committee has three or four months more of Investigation ostensibly os-tensibly to ascertain all pertinent facts. Despite the fact that the senate sen-ate has voted money for the committee com-mittee to make this investigation and the money will be spent at bearings. Senator Nye has proceeded proceed-ed to make known his views In advance. ad-vance. Disclosures made by the committee commit-tee thus far have been accepted generally, I think, as showing there was some fire as the cause of the smoke. Certain testimony given before be-fore that committee linked some of the American munitions makers with foreign interests whose designs were of a political character. It was shown how some of the foreign agents had attempted to provoke trouble between nations of Europe and the logical assumption Is that If such activities occurred In two or three instances, they must have occurred oc-curred In many others. Nevertheless, Neverthe-less, there Is a considerable amount of criticism heard In Washington about Senator Nye's plan of action because, it Is contended by these critics, it Is hard to see how tnj senator can conduct an unbiased In-1 vestigation after baring committed j himself la this tnequlvocable way.! a Waatera XtwJtwper Cnlaa, Whole Nation Benefited.

UTLEY UICAGO'S A Century of Progress exposition is over. Truly worthy of the time-worn time-worn billing, "The Greatest Show on Earth," It attracted 88,-800,843, 88,-800,843, paid admissions, more than any other world's fair anywhere, any time. A total of 22.320,450 paid to see it in 11)33 and 16.4S0.387 in l'J34. On the final day, October 31, 1034, 372,127 persons filled the grounds to bid the Fair farewell. Conceived In the sky-scraping heights of a free and easy prosperity, prosper-ity, it was born in the subterranean darkness of a heart-sickening depression, de-pression, amid a national chorus of "don'ts" and "noes' and a worldwide world-wide ballet of apprehensive shivers. From the rags and tatters of Its early - boyhood, it rose, like the stripling "Slnk-or-Swim," "Strlve-and-Succeed" hero of a Horatio Alger Al-ger novel, with its chin up and Its eye clear, Into a prosperous young business giant, and married the boss' daughter. It paid off. More than that, It will likely show a comfortable profit That is 'something unheard of in International- expositions. No world's fair, not even the World's Columbian" exposition of-1893, generally gen-erally held up as the shining example, ex-ample, ever returned to the good fairies who financed It more than 10 per cent of the glittering millions they showered Into Its coffers. No one ever expected the others to pay off. Few except the skillful pilots at the helm ever expected this one to repay dollar for dollar. The 1933-1D34 World's Fair has already made itself felt as a stimulus stimu-lus to business in Chicago, the Middle West, and throughout the nation. Before two hours had passed since the opening of the exposition in its second season, on May 20 of this year, the official register in the Sears, Roebuck building had recorded record-ed visitors from all forty-eight states and fifteen foreign countries. Of the 39.000,000 visitors more than 15,000,000 were from outside Chicago. They came from the four corners of the land. California and Florida rated among the highest of the states in Fair attendance. All of the tourists and travelers that these and other states, north, south, east and west, sent to the Fair spent money on their way to Chicago, Chi-cago, In Chicago and on their way home. Visitors Spend Freely. Before leaving for the Fair, out-of-town visitors prepared for the Journey. They bought new shoes, hats, clothing. If they drove, they had their cars put into first-class condition by local mechanics. They spent money on the way in hotels, restaurants, filling stations, garages. If they came long distances, they stopped off to learn the charms and fascinations of intermediate cities and itpent money In them. Some six or seven million bought railroad tickets. Another two or three million rode motor coaches. Either way, they spent money which the transportation lines will, In many cases, spend again along the routes of travel. In Chicago Itself, the association of commerce of that city estimates, they spent $70,000,000. Much of this in the natural course of exchange will pour back to manufacturers, and Industries throughout the country, helping to make more Jobs, create new wealth and new spending power. The money spent during the period peri-od of the exposition is only a start Desires created among potential buyers by the exhibits at the Fair will affect their spending for years to come. Millions for the first time felt at the Fair the contort of a!r-conditloned a!r-conditloned houses. Farmers saw for the first time the manifold advantages ad-vantages of prefabricated steel barns. Housewives learned the charm and efficient simplicity of the newer modes In furniture, saw how their housework could be lightened and their leisure time Increased In-creased by simple household appliances. appli-ances.

Nation's Spending Power. Generally, the millions who saw the Fair represented the 'sending power of the nation; certainly the 15,000,000 who could afford to make the trip from other pnrts of the country were, for the larger part the spenders of their communities. They have already bought and will continue to buy countless articles which were primarily Impressed upon them at the Fair. A Century of Progress and its exhibitors ex-hibitors and concessionaires created employment st the Fair for more than 4.0,000 persons. Half a million mil-lion men and women were given Jobs lasting from a few months to two years, before the Fair opened. Only 115,000 of these Jobs, which were largely concerned with preparing pre-paring exhibits and construction materials, were in the Chicago area. Thousands of the workers during the Fair period were recruited recruit-ed from outside Chicugo. The money which all of these workers earned will, at least in part be spent In their home communities. Much of the $50,000,000 spent for construction and maintenance be fore the Fair opened found its way out of the Illinois metropolis. Perhaps no less interesting or Important than its economic effect was the cultural effect of the Fair. With gay shows, colorful 'foreign villages," dozens of unusual spectacles spec-tacles and bountiful free entertainments entertain-ments competing, the Hall of Science Sci-ence drew more than 34,000,000 visitors, vis-itors, some 90 per cent of the total attendance. Ovir 4,000,000 visited the Hall of Religion. More than 2,000,000 persons visited the Art Institute's $75,000,000 display, de-site de-site the fact that It was not even located on the exposition grounds. Band shells for two great symphony sym-phony orchestras were always filled. Investors Are Paid. What the effect of A Century of Progress will have upon the expositions expo-sitions of the future is easy to foretell. fore-tell. Here is an exposition which asked for no grants of money from anyone, and got none. Before the market crash of 1929, Its sponsors went out and got $0,500,000 in pledged loans, many of them through the Influence of Charles Dawes, who from the start was the financial guiding genius of the Fair. Though collection was not begun until after the crash, more than S3 per cent of the money was collected Immediately. Every one of these Investors, plus others who raised the total to $10,000,000, has been paid bark. Subsequent fairs will have a difficult time getting the government windfalls of the past In the face of that record. A Century of Progress, further, did not give space away to exhibitors, exhib-itors, as other Fairs bad done. It made them pay $10 a square foot and sold them on the Idea, even In the face of depression and careful Industrial economy everywhere. In the nail of Sconce visitors could see actuaL laboratory experiments experi-ments In pure science, gripping In their drama of man's fight against the darkness of Ignorance and for the torch of progress. In the exhibit exhib-it buildings they saw how this science sci-ence was applied In the actual proc-ess proc-ess of every Industry, from the making mak-ing of silk hosiery to automobiles. . The fascination of it all was a drawing power few could resist Persons of small means traveled hundreds of miles on horseback, on bicycles, on foot to see it Some bartered their way In with eggs, chickens, from produce. And on the closing night more than 872,000 Fair fans braved the chill October weather, staying till the last dog was hung" In early morning, while hundreds of thousands thou-sands more thronged outside the gates because there was no room to get In. Contemplating Figures. With the Fair gone forever the heyday arrived for the master minds whose unholy Joy Is the business busi-ness of figuring out how far all the world's fair visitors would have stretched If laid end to end, and all that As a matter of fact they would have stretched more than sixteen six-teen times around the earth at the equator If none of them drowned lying in the oceans. The lights which made a dreamland dream-land out of the Fair by night drew enough current to supply a city of 00,000 for a whole year. The Intra-grounds Intra-grounds buses carried 21,000,000 passengers an aggregate total of the equivalent of seven trips to the moon, with plenty of mileage left over. Concesslonnalres sold 10,000,-000 10,000,-000 hamburgers, B.OOO.OOO hot dogs, 4,000,000 boxes of pop corn and a million bowls of chill concarne, In addition to the millions of complete meals served in the restaurants, proving that Fair visitors, like armies, travel on their stomachs. All of this must have been more than gratifying to Rufus Dawes, bis brother, former Vice President Charles Gates Dawes, Inox R. Lohr, general manager, and the others oth-ers who did what the whole world said couldn't be done In what was virtually the worst time In history to try doing It What Is to become of many of the memorable features of the Fair? Much of the contents of the Hall of Science Is being moved to the Museum Mu-seum of Science and Industry in Chicago. All historical exhibits of the Ford building are going to Henry Hen-ry Ford's museum In Dearborn, Mich. Sally Rand snd her fans are going on tour, as is the cast of the Old Glol theater.
