Mr. Ecker said that he thought that
we are now very close to the condi-,
tion of business and industry 'w'hich
we must for a long time come to re
gard as normal. He thinks it is -fool
ish to look for a return of the boum
times in 1924 t^ 1928. And at the very
height of the” boom, he pointed out,
there were. a million and" a half un
employed. .

draw oh its reserves "to pay off obli
gations incurred in boom times is sug-
gested'^^H. Ecl^r’s /statement that
