Bailey Talks of Improved Times and Economic Outlook
Senator Josiah W. Bailey said the market value of all stocks and bonds on the New York Stock Exchange is now about the same as in 1926, signaling improving conditions.

He praised Congress backing Roosevelt’s major programs but warned of revenue needs to restore veterans benefits and federal employee pay. The report also mentions English theatre owners limiting broadcasts, Italian avalanches requiring rock removal, and 30,000 Jamaicans returning home from Caribbean locations.
