Businessmen meeting at White Sulphur Springs favored the dole over work in public projects. Critics warn dole fosters decay while public works can revive idle labor.

Lost population trends in Chicago and other cities are noted, with a caution on future gains amid rural prospects and rising athletics costs at Washington and Jefferson College.
