Those Writers.

It was very interesting to read of the opinions of leading writers, in- uding Rudyard Kipling, that the end of the depresson was not yet in sight, that it was only midnight, and the dawn a long way away. People of that ilk know so little about de pressions that they very often fail to realize that the bottom step is the lowest.
