Secretary of Commerce Predicts Better Times
Lamont's Report to Hoover Reflects Confidence in Future
Future
Describing the advance in efficiency of production as the fundamental cause of the rise in the standards of living has been a major concern of our national existence. Lamont said
Washington, Dec. 15- (UP)—Conferently looking to the future and a continuation of the forward march of business in the region, a predicted lost night that when the present recession is over the upward movement in industrial efficiency and promotion will be on course.
His report to President Hoover on the status and progress of American industry and commerce during the fiscal year 2014 showed that the effects of the stock market crash of a year ago, but pointed out that "priestly timing" has been made as a result of the recession.
Permanent Advance Evident
"This progress in the production per man during recent years is conclusive evidence that the advance in economic activity has not been wholly or even entirely driven by the business cycle to be followed by an equally great downward movement.
"It has marked a permanent achievement, and when the present recession is over the same upward movement will unquestionably be resumed."
Employment during the year declined 37 per cent, the Secretary said, while wages fell off 3.5 per cent, the difference increased by the prevalence of part-time work.
The cost of living declined about 5 per cent between November, 1929, and June, 1930, according to the report.

Shepard Lawyers Start to Assault Evidence of State
Witness Declares Death of Major's Wife Caused by Alcohol Poison
Kansas City, Dec 15—UP) (DE)
defense attorneys begin an attack today to tear away the structure of circum-
stantial evidence built around Major Charles A. Shepard by the government in an effort to enclose him of murder.
DEFENSE WINS TODAY
The first smashing attack of the defense was delivered through Major J. E. Shepard, a neurologist at Mrs. Shepard died. The witness testified that he diagnosed Mrs. Shepard's illness as chronic neurotic aloebic psychosis, a condition akin to delirium
The government's case had been developed around previous medical testimony that the death was caused by his use of a sterilizer and not by alcohol. Mrs. Shepard was not a user of alcohol. This was regarded as a first introduction of the defense claims that personal identity and sexual identity were army post and contributed to the filing of murder charges against Shepard. Major Strickler describes Mrs. Shepard's account of the death, "Could you detect an odor of alcohol?"
Major Striker describes Mrs. Shippard's condition when he was first called. "Could you detect an odor of alcohol?" he was asked.
Then the defense called Major W. A. Rose, Ft. Ris. Bilet dentist who testified that he gave Mrs. Shepard mercury treatment and told her a woman told him she was tired of food.
"The yes of alcohol was very strong." he replied. The government arrested him and tried to tempt him to show that Mrs. Shepard died from mercury poisoning only. The defense is attempting to show that any one of several causes might have caused the death.
"Go away and leave me alone," she said, "I don't want to get well. I have no desire to live."
