PEPPER COMPANY 1958 Editor's note: The Cowhouse Philosopher on his Johnson grass farm out on Cowhouse Creek reports on economics this week, without any affect on the situation.

Dear editar: As I understand the reports from Washington, the recession, if we had one, has now hit bottom and things are picking up, although you've got to derstand us eco nomists speak only in general terms and it's possible to have a private recession in the middie of a boom, and I suppose private boom in the middle of a recession. theory of ing the only spell is to only answer It's sort of too much riages. Generally argue that too long in J. A. At any rate, I've been interested in what caused the thing and yesterday afternoon I found out from a newspaper the wind had blown against a fence out here on my farm.

When a fence has no more wind resistance than mine, it's not good farming practice to leave a newspaper lodged against it, so I pulled this one off and read it. According to it, nine economists were called on by a Senate Committee to explain what caused the recession: and they thought it over and reported "the recession was caused by the good times of previous years." This seemed to suit the Senate Committee, but it doesn't suit me. That is, I'm not aguing over whether it's right or not, what I want MEEKS WILL PREACH AT LIBERTY BAPTIST CHURCH Bro. Raymond Meeks will fill the pulpit at the Liberty Baptist Church north of Gatesville at both the morning and evening services Sunday, July 6, in the absence of the pastor, O. D.

Fuller. Church leaders say that the general public is invited to attend the services. to know is, if good times are to blame for bad times, and everybody la always struggling and hoping for good times, aren't they just inviting a recession? When Congress passes a law trying to end a recession, isn't it just arranging for good times which will in turn bring on another recession? I tell you, don't like this economics. It's like arguway to end rainy have drouth, or the to a drouth is a flood. like blaming war on peace, or divorce on maryou might be able to too many Democrats power will bring on too many Republicans too long in power, with the thing switching back and 1 forth every few years, and that might be right, but I'd just as soon have some other rangement for the economic sys.
