DEPAUW CHAPEL “We repeat the Lord’s Prayer so often and it is so familiar that it requires our greatest effort to grasp its full meaning.” declared Dr. Walter Bundy, speaking in Gobin Memorial church Wednesday morning for DePauw’s regular worship chapel. “No prayer is shorter or richer in its content than this prayer. Not one word is wasted and yet not one major interest of a Christian life is omitted,” said Dr. Bundy. "When, where, and why Jesus gave the prayer we do not know, but wo do know that it had in it all Jesus hoped and believed, all that he thought and taught.” After discussing each part of the Prayer, Dr. Bundy pointed aut that, if we repeat It consciously, we are immediately impressed by its broadness and freedom from any narrow secularism.

1929 Peak Seen For \nias Pusli

FORECAST LIBERALISM

TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 18, (UP) — Maj. George L. Berry, federal coordinator of industrial cooperation, forecast before the American Federation of Labor convention today that the U. S. supreme court would accept President Roosevelt’s overwhelming re-election as a mandate favorable to liberal legislation.

HOLIDAY BUSINESS BOOM IS PREDICTED BY COMMERCE OFFICIAL WASHINGTON, Nov. 18, (UP) — A holiday business boom, hitting 1929 prosperity levels and rising 10 per cent above last year, was forecast today by department of commerce officials. Assistant Secretary Ernest G. Draper said preliminary reports from all fields indicated many lines of business would operate at 1929 peaks. He based his contention on improved conditions, lessening of unemployment, higher earnings and distribution by scores of corporations of millions of dollars in dividends, and increased wages and bonuses. Major factors in the improvement picture: 1. Dividend distributions by many corporations because of increased earnings or a desire to escape the 1936 revenue act’s provisions for a heavy levy on undistributed surplus. 2. Increase in cash income of farmers from $7,201,000,000 last year to an estimated $7,750,000,000 this year, although it is still below the $10,417,000,000 in 1929. 3. Estimated 8,975.000 unemployed as against 15,000,000 in 1935. 4. Estimated rise in national income from $53,500,000,000 in 1935 to $60,000,000,000 or more this year. 5. Industrial production at its highest peak since 1930 and rising. “Business is continuing at a rapid rate,” Draper said. “Undoubtedly part of the acceleration is due to the increase in dividend payments. The laggards in industry appear to be capital equipment, construction, and export trade but even in these fields the trend is upward. It looks as if we can see an increase in business for the end of this year and during the coming year. “Of course, profits cannot be expected as proportionately large as in 1929 and 1930 as prices in many lines are down but this undoubtedly works to the advantage of buyers in the lower income groups.” Administration economists reported that retail sales were running about 15 per cent ahead of 1935 but below those of 1929 because of cheaper prices. Bank deposits arc above $46,000,000,000, an all time peak. Payment of the soldiers’ bonus was cited as another factor stimulating trade. Another is the steady creeping of steel toward 1929 levels. It is about 12 per cent below that year but profits are frequent and wages have been increased, it was explained. The automobile industry is enjoying one of its best years from the viewpoint of manufacturers and distributors, while labor and farm wages are higher. Despite the general increase in wages and profits, experts predicted that the ratio of national income distribution would not be affected materially. Retail trade, generally, is expected to be about 15 per cent above last Christmas season. Mail order houses, on the basis of increased buying power, reported to the department of commerce that trade is improving rapidly.
