AMERICA DEPRESSED
“NO FAITH IN ANYTHING. [United Press Association—By Eleotrit Telegraph—Copyright.] LONDON, December 22. “They have no faith in anything. I have never seen America so depressed,’’ said Sir Arthur Duckhain, return,ng from the United States. “The gambling boom is finished, and' people have not even money to pay the margins on which they bought. They switch off office lights as motives ot 'economy and they are trying to carry the unemployed "on charity. Employers guarantee that the staffs will contribute a portion of their salaries to charity. It can’t be done that way, but the dole seems inevitable.
“A satisfactory feature is the admiration of the manner in which Lugland has tackled her troubles.’’
