Dangers of inflation to the nation's economic structure, and the peril of pyramiding the national debt were cited by Conger Reynolds, public relations counsel for the Standard Oil company, in a talk before 175 Kiwanians and guests at a dinner meeting in the Decatur club Tuesday night. Mr.

Reynolds was introduced by C. LeForgee. The speaker illustrated his discussion, of financial trends with charts distributed at th tables and showing how the economic progress of the nation has been in cycles of considerable regularity. Mr. Reynolds saia tnai the business curve has already started upward, and that the forces needed to return industry to its normal level are already at work.

Sees Trade tJpturn Factors contributing to the busi-imturn are higher prices for forrv, nroducts. production in creases in steel, motor cars, electric power and other industries, Mr. said. He viewed with deep concern the threat of infla tion, described conditions ne naa rni.j in France and Germany fol lowing the World war, and de clared that the small investor would be hardest hit by any inflationary measure. Even the "controlled inflation" adopted by Viae caused manv there to lose more than three-fourths of their life's savings, Mr.

Reynolds Mr nualified his praise for the New Deal with the state ment that some of its plans were not as effective in actual operation as they appeared "on paper." Trio Gives rrogram.

and handled Davidson's advertis ing. They were, friends, but they did not agree upon anything. "Your copy is lousy," said Banks, as usual. "It suits me." said Davidson. "Writing your own copy." said Banks, "is just as antiquated and uneconomic as if you tried to mak your own shoes.

If you'll put your advertising into the hands of an expert "Meaning you." said Davidson. "No. I've seen what you do. Whether it's a doormat or a plumbing fixture or a breakfast food or a pipe tobacco, you get that baby and that girl and that old lady into It." said Banks. "Certainly! That's sound psychology That's "Well.

I don't want any psychology." said Davidson. "I simply want to tell the public that David son Curtain Rods are made of the best material, that they don't rust or warp "You're all wrong" said Banks. "The public He stopped short. "Davidson!" he murmured. "What's that?" "What's what?" "That vision "Oh.

That's the girl who's taking Miss Gale's place until she gets back." said Davidson coldly. Now, about this copy" "Do you mean to say that you can work with her in the office?" "I can," said Davidson. "And I'm going to, right now. Here's the copy." Banks had more to say, but it had no effect upon Davidson. Davidson was very busy the fol lowing morning; he had no oppor tunity to speak to Miss Loring.

But he was more and more determined to speak. After lunch he approach ed her. "Miss Loring," he said, "the thing is, I've got to make some drastic cuts." "Oh!" said she. "I thought you looked sort of wistful." He winced at the word. "I'm sorry," he said, with formality.

"But the salary I can offer you won't make it worth your while to stay. Conditions" "Aren't they awful?" she said earnestly. "But don't be unhappy about having to cut my salary, Mr. Davidson. I can manage perfectly well on much less "You can't take that point of view, in business," said Davidson.

"Business is a a grim struggle." She shook her head. "That's not my philosophy," she said.

Drouth Broken By Heavy Rain In Middlewest 300-Mile Strip From Dakota to Texas Still May Suffer, Weather Records Show. WASHINGTON (UP) The drouth which turned whole Midwest states into searched Saharas appeared to be over today except for a nationwide belt 300 miles wide. U. S.

weather bureau statistics for the past six months showed that rain and snow over the mid-Mississippi valley had been exceptionally heavy. The one dark spot in the map wag a belt of extraordinary light precipitation immediately east of the Rocky mountains from North Dakota and Montana to Texas. Rainy Season Ahead This western plains region, ex tending from the Dakota bad lands to the Rio Grande, usually receives its rainfall during the three spring months of March, April and May. If yiis fails this year, these sections are in for a worse drouth than last year, officials predicted. Already dust storms have been reported from these sections where less than half the normal precipitation was reported.

"The drouth over a large area had been broken but over the western plains there has been no relief whatever." said Joseph B. Kincer. chief of the division of climate and crop weather. More Snow for Mountains In the great basin west of the Continental Divide, precipitation was slightly below normal although murh more satisfactory for the farmers than last year. More snow is stored in the mountains which may be used for irrigation purposes than last year, it was pointed out.

The sub-soil in this section needs more rainfall but the conditions are far superior to! last year. The Eastern Ohio valley also was below normal but this region immediately west of the Allegheny mountains was not severely hit by the drouth last year. Midwest Above Average As an example of the tremendous increase in rain and snowfall throughout the mid-Mississippi valley, Kincr cited La Crosse. where the precipitation lacked only one per cent of being double the normal. Other cities all the way down the Mississippi river to the gulf were far above average.

The lowest precipitation figure in the distressed western plains area was reported from Amarillo. where only one quarter of the normal -ain fell. Other representative reports from the area included Pueblo. 38 per cent of normal: Cheyenne. 44 per cent, and Bismarck.

(UP) Peace such as the University of Iowa has not enjoyed since the first crack of a paddle inaugurated Hell week settled today on the campus. The only sour note was the continued scurrying of messenger boys bearing telegraphed inquiries of mothers who wanted to know whether their sons had survived initiation into Greek letter fraternities. Mrs. Joseph J. Runner, wife of Professor Runner of the university faculty, took the initiative in abating the state-wide furore she aroused by writing to President Eugene A.

Gilmore that her son, Kenyon. had been brutally by a too enthusiastic initiation Into Phi Gamma Delta. Mrs. Runner said she "absolutely" does not blame Phi Gamma Delta for his condition and added that reports of his illness were "exaggerated." With Mrs. Runner extending the olive branch, the inter-fraternity council met and established a "court" empowered to discipline brotherhoods that overstep hazing rules, which ban the practice.

University faculty members said 'the incident is closed." -Mr. Louise Whitman, 06, Dies in Sullivan By Correspondent. SULLIVAN Mrs. Louise E. Whitman.
