Banks distribute about 400 million dollars in Christmas thrift funds, likely supporting rent, taxes, and robust holiday shopping. This influx should provide a temporary business boost and sustain activity at a higher level into the season.
A column cites William Green of the AF of L warning that the century’s shift to machines threatens mass unemployment. It argues for shorter workweeks, higher wages, and government and state actions including a La Follette Economic Council, Wagner plan for 30 hours, and unemployment protections to avert charity wards and sustain industry.
A column coats Glenn Frank’s critique of American society with sharp wit, arguing moral over economic needs, then surveys voters and political trends. It cites six million independents, defense spending as a perpetual budget driver, and contrasts old prudence with modern excess, closing with a Maine 108 year old reformer.
Washington December 6 reports from Governor Roosevelt at Warm Springs suggest plans to remove the White House physician position. He would call in a doctor as needed rather than have one on duty at the mansion, a departure from earlier presidential practice. The piece recalls past entourages with Dr. Boone under Hoover and parallels with Wilsons physician Admiral Grayson. It cites Coolidge’s remark that the presidency is healthy and implies Roosevelts potential shift to external medical staff when he takes office March 4.
Health notes from the New York Academy of Medicine discuss how vitamin A deficiency, traced back to Osborne and Mendel, relates to urinary stones. The article explains epithelial keratinization in the urinary tract and suggests keratinized cells trap salts forming stones.

A New York column recalls a boastful reader clash over city noise and taxi speed with Chicago. It contrasts New York’s issues like rents and petty grafters with Chicago noise, then notes Belasco era theater memories and Matty Purcell’s failed noise shop before returning to Belasco’s stage crew awaiting inheritance funds.
