As this recovery proceeds her statement sound convincing by its brevity. "But you kids were so In love with each other for years That's funny, calling you kids, but really I always think of you years ago when Jim was in the dough, and you were the life of the party. Damn it, Eve, there surely ought to be some way of working it out You still love Jim, Eve, I can see it in your eyes." CHARACTER ROLES jj-TAT ARE FAVORITES "What's the use of lying, Barney?

I suppose," he finished lamely.

"It's hell," said Eve shortly, "but what can I do? What was I trained to ever do? I have to be glad they let me creep in here.

Thus the full recovery of the heavy industries will soon turn the existing boom in the light industries into very big boom.

Yet side by side with all this there is unemployment which some authorities estimate at over 8,000,000 persons. And side by side with this unemployment there is increasing evidence of a shortage of skilled labor.

That cause goes back to the early days of the New Deal, to the inner contradiction between the monetary policy, of the Administration and its labor The monetary policy has been to create mass purchasing power by putting into the hands of the unemployed, of the farmers, of, the veterans, of contractors on pub. lie works, of the Army and the Navy, great quantities of inflationary money. This money, pins the funds at-; tracted from abroad by the devaluation of the dollar, plus the credit which Is built upon the inflated bank deposits, is creating a boom demand for goods, a cash boom largely. There is, or at least there will shortly be, more purchasing power than there are goods to be purchased. MEASURES ADOPTED AS LABOR POLICY On the other hand, the labor policy has consisted in a variety of measures 'to restrict the production of goods.
