Is Not Addition to Wealth.
BY JOHN T. FLYNN
a TEW YORK. Aug. 29—Joseph § P. Kennedy has written a Book. He used to be head of the ‘Securities Exchange Commission ‘and his book is entitled: “I'm for Roosevell.” There have been campaigns which were known as battles of pamphlets. The 1932 campaign was called the battle of the radio. Pef“haps this one will be called the battle of the books. Jambks Warburg wrote one called “Hell Bent for Election” aimed at Roosevelt. Lewis Douglas also has dischanged a book af his former chief. Harold fckes, Henry * ‘Wallace, others have written books for campaign consumption. None of course has equalled Mr. warbureg’s Mr, Flynn broadside which is said to have sold 300,000 copies, unless it be David Cus hman Coyle’s. * “«Pncommon Sense’ for Roosevelt. "But of course no one can say how many were sold ih the market and how many were distributed by various committees. But now. Mr. . Kerninedy comes forward with his book. - * o n TT is unique. It is principally an appeal to rich men to support . Rooseveli—Mr. Kennedy himself being a very rich-man. He goes to a good deal of pains to tell rich men what Mr. Roosevelt has done for them. One of alone I can notice here. it is fundamental. Mr. Kennedy, being stock-mar- | . ket-minded, says that since Mr. ~ Roosevelt took office. and began saving the capitalist system, there has been an enormous increase ‘in wealth— wealth, of course, being the thing the man of wealth is most interested in. To prove this he cites the fact that since March, 1933, the prices of all “stocks—on the Stock Exchange and “on the over-the-counter markets— = Rave increased in value by a hun“dred billion dollars. Mr. Kennedy, therefore, thinks our wealth has Increased a hundred billion.

what is wealth? A 4 ¥ house is wealth. A machine "is wealth. A factory is wealth. The mortgage on the house or “factory is not wealth, It is merely . evidence that someone has a claim : against the wealth. A share of stock is not wealth. It is merely ‘evidence that -some person owns ‘a part of the corporation that owns the wealth. The wealth is ~ the factory. The factory is part of the national wealth. Enlarge the factory, put new machines in the factory, build a second factory and you increase the national wealth. But leave the factory as ft is and increase its price, or ingrease the price of the shares in ~ the corporation which owns it, and . you do not increase the national - wealth. The factory is part of the “national wealth; the shares are mot, | : A 2-8 u Sa) M- KENNEDY makes the misbeg take of confusing wealth with prices. If we have 300 -million “bushels of wheat prided at $200,000000 and then we destroy a ‘hundred million bushels, we will only ‘have 200 million left. This _ perhaps will create a scarcity and ~ the price will rise so that the 200 million bushels will be worth ~ $300,000,000 where the -300 ‘million bushels were worth only $200,000,900. The price has increased ty

INCREASE EXPECTED IN HOG SLAUGHTER’
Federal Bureau Says Diop in Pork Costs Likely.
By United Press WASHINGTON, Aug..29. — Hog slaughter in the 1936- 37 marketing | year may run 10 to 20 per cent larger than in 1935-36 because of drought, resulting in lower pork prices this fall and early winter but. higher prices later, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics said today. The bureau said this year’s drought” may reduce hog farrowings this fall with the result that there may be no increase in the fall | hog crop over last year and the 1937 spring pig crop may be smaller than in 1936. The 1936-37 hog prices may average about as high as in 1935-36 since the probable increase in | slaughter supplies will be about offset by the further improvement in consumer demand now in prospect, the report said. Increased exports of hog products are in prospect during the fall and winter months because of the larger do hog slaughter, the bureau sai

FARMERS! JULY INCOME ATTAINS RECOVERY PEAK _
Cash Received From Grain Given as Cause for Boost in Total.
By United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.—Despite the worst drought in the history of |
modern American agriculture, farm- |
ers’ July cash income totaled $733,-
000,000, the largest July income since 1929, the Bureau of Agricultural | 3 Economics reported today. = Cash income for the first seven months of the year totaled $4,024.000,000, including payments from the government, the. highest since the corresponding months in 1930, Farmers’ cash income from the sale of products alone was $711,000,000, the highest July total since 1929. Income from sales in June this year was $582,000,000, and in July, 1935, it was $451,000,000.
Aid Below June Figure
In addition, farmers received $24,000,000 in government rental and benefit payments in July compared with $57,000,000 in June and with $19,000,000 in| July of last year. A marked gain in income from grains, especially wheat, caused the increase in cash income in July as compared with June and with July 1935, the Bureau reported. Wheat receipts in the principal markets were the fourth largest on government records for July, Maretings of other grains also were large with receipts of oats and barley at the principal markets being the second largest on record for that month. Prices of meat animals in July were slightly lower than in June put higher than in July, 1935. Increased marketings of animals last month aided in raising the income from that source. Farm income for the remainder of the calendar year is expected by the Bureau to continue higher than in the corresponding months of 1935.
WEEKLY CLEARINGS
Times Special NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—Bank clearings for the week ended Aug. 26, totaled $4,524,896,000 for the 22 leading cities in the United States, Dun and Bradstreet reported today. This was under the aggregate for the week preceding, but the negative gap from the 1935 comparative of $4,552,390,000 was narrowed, the report said. All except three of the cities reported gains. The largest gains were registered at Boston, Pittsburgh and | Cleveland, the report said.

NEW CHEMICAL PRODUCTS HELP ~ OTHER TRADES
Industrial Leaders Rely on Laboratories in War on Depression.
BY MEADE C. MONROE United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 29, — An ever-widening sphere of consumps= tion is the chemical industry's contribution to economic recovery. Re= search keeps “the industry cycle turning. New inventions, new manus facturing processes, new uses for old materials.come from the labora< tory. Chemists demonstrate how better
In times of expansion like these, they keep manufacturers constantly on the jump to meet competition from the factory across the street. The result: Better profits, more new factories, stimulated employ= ment, new uses for invested capital, wider dissemination of a family's | income—these are the ingredients of | recovery. : : Money Needed
All through the search workers have been busy, Little was heard of their work, There was no money to develop their discoveries. Now they are ready, as the nation emerges from depression. Government officials, looking toe ward new industries and new prod= ucts to provide the final recovery stimulus, believe the chemical ine dustry will satisfy much of the market for so-called “prosperity goods” which citizens demand as their ine comes increase.
The chemical industry is highly mechanized. Its 10,000 firms hire only about 250,000 workers. Its contribution to recovery will not be
employed directly in the industry, it=self. Its: products, moreover, are basic materials, production of which
may be stepped up without hiring additional workers.
New Products
_It is in new ways of combining these basic materials into new and better products that the recovery value of the industry is measured, When a new plastic is invented, for instance, a new company is formed to manufacture it, a face tory is built or rented, sales and merchandising staff established, skilled and unskilled workers hired. Research brings about constant change in manufacturing methods, It discovers better and cheaper ma« terials with which to make products, then finds new uses for the displaced materials. Much of the research is conducted by private companies.
Cotton Cited
When cotton men, for instance, find part of their market taken by rayon, they hire research workers who find that cotton can be used to manufacture .plastics, cellulose 2 | products, building materials and the like. Finding their product dis-. placed, in turn, lumber chemists find that wood can be ground up, treated with chemicals, and used to make rayon. Rapid expansion in invention of new plastics hold perhaps more promise than any other type of product emerging from, the chem-=-ical laboratory. Familiar trade names include: Celluloid, bakelite,:
blette, tentite and dozens of others,
Wide Range ; Plastics now are used in a host of products—photographic film, toiletware, - pens, handbags, watch crystals, spectacle frames, electrical parts, phonograph records, shat« ter-proof glass, gears, gaskets, bear= ings, airplane propellers and for
| making modernistic furniture. 1
Glass can now be spun so fine that it resembles downy cotton,
i can be woven into clothifine enough
for use in making ladies’ undergarments. It can be pliable as well as brittle and can stand swift tem perature changes. Aromatics—In this field, chemists have sought to reduce the retarde ing effect on sales caused by un-
cals, manufacturers can destroy of« fensive odors in products such as fertilizer, glue, paste, ink, lacquers, Synthetic camphor—Once 80 per cent of camphor was imported. Now it is made from domestic turpentine, at great savings. Its chief new use is as a plasticizing medium in _
Next—Air conditioning.
