Economic Highlights Point to Strong 1939 Outlook
Economic forecasters foresee nineteen thirty nine as the best year for business in a decade with a recovering economy gaining strength. Optimism centers on a massive electric utilities spending drive of at least two billion dollars to add 1,330,000 horsepower, and plans for further expansion if approved. The President’s Emergency Board opposes wage cuts for rail workers and rejects a 15 percent railroad wage cut request, signaling cautious balance between growth and costs.

Slats Diary Reflects Simple Week From Oliver N Warren
A child’s diary recounts a week of small events and family humor. Sunday wakes early, a dented tooth tale on Monday, editor’s space woes, Meddy school luncheon, a tense exchange over a magazine, Friday’s after school discipline, and Saturday’s near mishap as Emmy visits downtown.
Fragmentary dialogue about streets and drivers
A fragmentary exchange describes pedestrians and drivers with mixed attitudes. One speaker notes some people walk as if they own the streets, and others drive as if they own the car. The moment ends with an implied unspoken remark from Emmy.
