| Sumario: | It is hardly surprising, as the New York World observed over a year ago, that business men, after listening to the endless optimistic promises emanating from Washington, "have at last been driven into the skeptical attitude of Hotspur." They have observed U.S. President Herbert Hoover and his officials, in a manner curiously reminiscent of Owen Glendower, trying to conjure up the genre of prosperity by invocations at the White House. In the fall of 1929 the tenor of the White House conjurations was to deny that anything was wrong. Even before the market crash, the charms were set to work.
