The best Judgment here is that any war involving any European nation would stimulate business in the United States for tlw time being.

The usual “Charlie horses’’ and pulled muscles are keeping the number who report to practice reduced. A few-more serious jnjuriea are cutting down bn available material. “litttle Shorty’’ Home suf fered the first bid hurt of the season when he tore the ligaments of his right hand during an early scrimmage.

The squad is weakened for the time being by the ^id>sence of Moore from his usual place at fullback. He received a leg injury ^during the scrimmage with the var sity and has been forced to miss prac tice for several days. Gordon Helms is being hindered by a severe “Charlie horse,” but has continue to fill his ball-carrying assignments in practice. Tbrtunately, none of these injuries are ! permanent, and. the freshmen should jbe able to throw tjiair full power ;against the Carolina frosh in the opening game'. 'According to reports, the P. C. yearlings will need all their man power when they go against the Bid dies.)! The university -has another big firndmian squad which has plenty of weight and experience. That is only the Hrst of a difficult five-game schedule whi^ the P.

It is the, belief o( the best inform ed officials dealing with foreign af fairs here that a real war involving more than one"European nation is in the cards. Such a war would bring about temporary ^prosperity, but would also advance the date of the next de pression. Already enormous amounts of gold are on the way from Europe'to Ameri ca, sent over here partly for greater security and partly for speculative use in the event of war. Uusinesa and Jobs Sifting carefully ^all of the indica tions in regard to business conditions which come into Washington, and sep- amtlng the political bunkum from the facts, it is firmly believed here that material business gains are being made, regardless of the war question. There are many signs of improvement. A real residential construction boom is in the making. This is inevitable in view of the increase in the marriage rate*and the biAh rate. New homes are ihcrearingty in demand, and ac tual re-enrployment is progreasing faster than the usual government sta tistics show. There has been a recent awakening on the part of the Administration to the fact that there never has been and never will be a time when there is not a large num^r of persons un employed. President Roosevelt re marked the other day that we must reconcile ourselves to a""considerable percentage of permanent junemploy- ment. ___x The plan for a new census of unem ployment has been dropped. Some ob servers attribute this to fear that ac tual figures would show that* there has been no real reduction in the num ber of unemployed as a result of the Government’s work relief efforts. That would be bad politically for the Ad ministration. The hope now is that within two or three years businessVill have so far recovered as to take care of all but the unemployables and the elderly workers who are to be pension ed. Only a few look for a really nor mal business era before 1937. Getting “Security’’ Pmid Plans are shaping up for the al lotment of emergency relief funds for putting the Social SMurities act into operation. The appropriation for this old-age pension, unemployment insu- .rance, child healthy protection plan was included in the Third Deficiency bill, which was killed by the late Sen ator Huey Long’s eleventh hour fili buster. The appropriation for enforcing the potato-control amendment to the AAA was alM included in that bill. Nobody however, if trying, to get any emer gencies fundv io put that into effect. Secretary Wallace regards that as a “hot potato” which he is very wHling to drop. The project of putting a quota <m potato-growing and sendiiHK farmers to jail if they violate any of the rigid restrictions of the law, is likely to D.
