One other result of the deflationary policy has been a jump in unemployment, which rose last month by 100,000, to 370,000.

Died. Gus Edson, 65, cartoonist, who in 1935 switched from sports on the New York Daily News to comic strips when he took over The Gumps after the death of its creator, Sidney Smith, for the next 25 years kept the noisy ("Oh, Mini"), argumentative family (Andy, Min, Uncle Bim and Momma De Stross) yelling happily at one another until its popularity waned and he turned exclusively to Dondi, the sentimental story of an Italian waif in the U.S., currently in 138 newspapers; of a heart attack; in Stamford, Conn...
