Friday, No"ember 8, 1929UNCLE CY'S COLUMN

New York.Last week I had about a day in NewYork city. A day is quite enough. Thecity always amazes and depresses meand lets me come home delighted withthe rural charms of our so-called"sleenv city."My host up there was a Wall Streetbroker, and I have rarely listened tosuch harrowing tales of disaster and to

such a mou rn fu l commentary on theinstability of human judgment.Undoubtedly t he marke t was frightful, but, after all, the people who werecrushed were t hose who were contr ibuting nothing to prosperity or industry,who were specula ting rather than invest ing, and who , because their activities were t hos e of the gambl er , had tosuffer the gambler's fate and lose a ll onone hand.Business should not be cripp led; i tshould r eturn to a normal point wherethe investment in stocks will s ecur e afair return in earnings rathe r than aspeculative return due to the fluctuations of the market. Just as the fooli sh v irgins car ried lamps without oil,so the foolish speculators carried stockswithout owning them. Today they a rehigh and dry. I am s or ry for thembut t hev had i t c onj ing .The people who buy now while themarket is low and select securities ofknown good earning capacity and pu tthem away as they would bonds, arethose 'who wiII be s aved hea rt ac heswhen t he nex t pan ic a rr iv es , whi ch Ihope will be far off . \Vh ile I was over there I went downto the docks to meet a man whom Ihave not seen for some time. While Iwas waiting for him to get through thecus toms I observed t he many strangecreatures ther e. I believe that most ofthe customs officers are a f riendly, decent lot who, if a llowed to , wi ll carryou t their orders with as little frictionas possible.One incident brightened the waiting.About six feet from th e gates th erewas a sudden crash of glass and a.delicious aroma of spi ri ts . Within af ract ion of a s econd no one could beseen ncar the wreckage. Laughter wasnot confined to passengers alone; thecustoms guards roared too. Then someprim lady came along and t he headguard asked, "Was th at y ou r bottle,madam?" * New York seems unreal and artificialto me. I cannot ad ju st my bucolicItastes to so much stone and concrete.I t is mer ely a molehi ll , producing noliving food. hav ing no gree n verdure,and a temple to t he conce it o f man andthe efficiency of machinery. The sensation of driving up a ramp abovecross-traffic. around a balustrated, terrace-like drive, through a tunne l, d ownanother ramp, and finally out of theGrand Central Station onto Park Avenue leaves me breathless.* Then t her e a re t he buses. I used toen jo y sit tin g a-top t hem and rolling

and j ol ti ng up Fif th Avenue gaz ingdown on the sleek motors and hurryingpedestrians. This week I f ound mysel fat 33d Stree t and had a l uncheon engagement in twenty- five minutes at49th Street. I elected to take a bus.\Ve started and sat, t he n j us t s at whilelights flashed green and red and g reenagain. I was fifteen minutes late andreturned in the Subway. * It has been years since I have usedthe Philadelphia subway, but I a lway sdo in New York. The t yp es one s eesare so grotesque. I wonder how theywere bred a nd why t hey s houl d be all owed to live. They are so ugly, sod ir ty , and so unk ind in appearance.* *Manhattan is full of taxis. I usethem too much there and regret it.Here I t hink nothing of walking fromFifth to Twenty-second Streets, bu t

there I am an old man needi ng t o becar ted about beh ind a c lick ing, lee ringmeter. * *
