There Is a natural hesitancy about forecasting the future In view iof the fact that so many predictions early in 1930 have been more or less upset by unfavorable developments during the year.

As a rule government officials make lengthy statements for the newspapers and magazines reviewing the achievements of one year and pointing with confidence toward the next year. Instructions have been issued In some cases to eliminate the annual predictions altogether and in some instances officials have acted without any particular word from higher-ups. The consensus seems to be that silence at this time will be less embarrassing than any attempt to analyze either the causes or effects of the present depression. One of the most Interesting documents that has come out of a government department is a pamphlet which discusses the business depression Incidentally but which primarily aims to guide the cotton farmer. Sofrpests Market Study The bureau of agricultural economics recommends that cotton production be based upon prospective market demand Instead ot upon prices of the preceding season.

"My observation and reading lead me to the opinion that new parties cannot be successfully organized by a few men or a few leaders, however sincere they may be," Borah said In a statement Sunday. "New parties have to come up from the grass roots.

It takes some single dominating issue accompanied by dramatic crisis to swing people from their old moors Into new positions. "There are at least four or five vital issues before our people and a new party could not agree on a platform on all of them and could not satisfy the constituencies on all of them any more than can the old parties. "Take power, prohibition, farm relief and the duty of the state and national governments with reference to at least two great problems, who will write a platform that will weld together constituencies throughout the party? "I do not see any new party but I do see some realignments which will be evident In legislative matters rather than in any open announcement on the part of either leaders or constituencies, that has already taken place to a marked degree."
