The overproduction of goods that brought on the present crisis is not like that of other periods; this time it is the saturation point. The sharply curtailed consumption to day is not primarily a reflex of a distress cut In income but a return to the "natural" level. The un employment figures of today are not emergency figures. They reg ister the permanent effect of our trinmnha in industrial efficiency, in methods and machines. Taking care of perhaps 8,000,000 persons out of work is a big problem, but that pan ho. solved if it is a temporary problem. But wnat tne country must now look forward to i. thi. hns-a mass of idle workers as a permanent feature of our eco- nomic me. aucn is mo " frn "In Vind" todav.
