on

j
"The
cause
of
our
present
economic
troubles
has
been
clouded
in
recent
years
but
it
seems
to
me
quite
easy
to
find.
During
the
war
we
snot
off
the
savings
of
centuries,
we
destroyed
millions
of
tons
of
shipping,
we
took
out
of
productive
effort
millions
of
men,
we
killed
off
millions
of
the
flower-of
our
youth.
In
spite
of
that
ghastly
blunder,
in
spite
of
the
ten
years
of
extravagance
and
jazz
which
followed,
in
spite
of
every'
country
in
the
world
raising

walls
and
foolishly
trying
to
sell
to
all
and
buy
from
none,
in
spite
of
our
huge
debts
and
taxation.
In
spite
of
the
extravagance
and
sen-
Ulty
of
some
of
our
governmental
leaders,
in
spite
of
all
these
mistakes,
I
say
that
the
forces
of
recovery
have
been
and
are
working
and
are
too
strong
to
be
overcome.
I
am
going
to
predict
that
within
a
year
or
so,
possibly
a

possibly
a

we
