U.S. Business

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-(R)-The na-
tion's business, entering the fifth
month of recovery, had reclaimed to- f
day nearly half the groun( it lost in
the slump from the relatively high
industrial levels in the spring and
summer of 1937.
Employment estimates indicated
well over a million workers have been
restored to factory payrolls and pay
envelopes fattened through added
working hours as plants on curtailed
schedules speeded up production.
October figures, presenting a pic-
ture of sharp contrast with the rapid
decline of industrial barometers in
that month last year, showed the
vast building industry far ahead of
1937 levels.
Heavy construction awards, trade
sources reported, were the largest for
the month since 1929. The Associat-
ed Press index of residential building.
where signs of vigorous revival first
were 'visible last spring and early in
the summer, by the end of October

Admiral Horthy Scheduled
To Lead Symbolic March
Into New Hungary
BUDAPEST, Nov. 5-(AP)-Hungar-
ian troops crossed the Danube today
for the first time in 20 years in be-
ginning the reoccupation of 4,875
square miles of their former home-
land awarded Hungary from Czecho-
slovakia through Italo-German arbi-
tration.
The soldiers advanced with flowers
bobbing on their shiny helmets or
falling underfoot and by nightfall
they had moved approximately 121/2
miles into the Slqvak regions of
Medve and Doborgaz, north of the
Hungarian towns of Gyor and Mag-
yar Ovar.

The projected reinforcements, the
outcome of an extensive resurvey of
defense needs which was intensified l
by Europe's recent crisis, were said to
be chiefly for the Army and Air Corps.
Also in prospect, however, is a re-
quest for increased appropriations toI
carry out this year's billion-dollar
fleet expansion act, which laid out
the Navy's course for a decade.
Details of the new rearmament
program were hidden in confidential
budget estimates, but in well informed
quarters, it was believed the Presi-'
dent's recommendations to Congress
early next year would include at least
tripling the Army air corps' present
goal of 2,320 fire line fighting planes,
fixed in 1935; undertaking immedi-
ately to equip the Army's "initial pro-
tective force 'of about 400,000 with
"essential" semi-automatic rifles,
anti-aircraft guns, bombs, tanks and
gas masks; and hastening the acqui-
sition of war reserves for a force of
1,000,000 which would take the field
within a few months in the event of
United States involvement in a new
world war.

Paul Van Zeeland, ex-Prime Minis-
ter of Belgium, who will speak here,
,Nov. 15 in the second Oratorical
Associatign lecture, is probably the
outstanding personality among the
,ounger generation of European
statesmen.
Still in his early forties, Van Zee-r
land has already established himself
in the fields of business, finance,
scholarship and politics. Upon gradu-
ating as Doctor of Laws at Louvain,
his flair for languages won him a
place on the Belgium Relief Commis-
sion to the United States. While here
he studied economics at Princeton
for a year, receiving an M.A. degree.
In 1935 Europe's youngest ruler,
King Leopold, appointed Van Zee-
land Prim'e Minister. During his two
years in office Dr. Van Zeeland
played a key role in the political life
