R.
M.
Winslow
Sees
Many
Things
While
on
Visit
to
United
States
And
Canada
and
Tells
About
Some
of
Them
The
people
of
the
United
Stater,
are
looking
forward
to
a
building
program
providing
the
United
States
with
much
needed
houses
and
other
buildings
and
at
th
same
time
taking
up
much
of
thi
unemployment
slack,
according
to
R.
M.
Winslow,
assistant
manager
;
Its
weekly
luncheon
yesterday.
"I
found
the
people
of
the
United
States
worrying
about
the
future
much
more
than
ever
be
fore,
Mr.
Winslow
said.
"The
jhaye
evidently
lost
much
of
the
'old
feeling
of
extreme
optimism
'and
they
are
thinking
more
solidly
j
and
less
exuberantly
than,
of
yore
J
,
However,
I
found
them
looking
for
j
better
business
conditions
despite
the
inflatory
methods
on
which
iiney
seem
to
be
depending.
;
It
Is
difficult
to
learn
much
ifrom
Americans
at
a
time
like
Ithis.
Nearly
everyone
is
either
de
finitely
against
the
administration
and
damns
everything
they
do
or
Is
strongly
for
It
and
refuses
to
see
any
faults,
according
to
fie
speaker.
Everything
just
now
de
pends
on
the
political
leaning
c!
the
person
with
whom
you
converse.
Mr.
Winslow
spoke
of
the
weather
vagaries
of
the
places
ylsited.
He
found
below
