MESSAGE FOR DEC, /
ENGAGES PRESIDENT
Begins Consideration of Sub
jects to Present to Regu-
lar Congress Session.

President Wilson has begun con-
sideration Of his message to the regu-
lar session of Congress, which meets
December l, it was learned at the
White House today. He soon will be
ready to put his ideas on paper, he
has told those about him.
Whether the message will be die
tated or written by the President de-
pends on his condition. He is mend
ing rapidly, but DR.. Grayson does not
want him to undertake too much.
Most of the messages to Congress,
as well as the note to Germany have
been written by the President him.
self, on the typewriter he keeps in
his study. 1t is unlikely that he will
be able to write the coming message
in this way.
One other departure from the Presi-
dents usual course will be forced by
his illness. Since coming to the White
House he has appeared before Con-
gress personally at the opening OF
each regular session and read his
message, but it Is improbable he will
be strong enough to go to Congress
on December l.
Because of the unsettled labor con.
ditions and the doubtful state of the
Peace Treaty, the parts of the Presi-
dents message dealing with these
subjects will be the last put on paper

former bank money will be released
to help local enterprise throughout

Government officials said here today.
This vast sum. no longer attracted
by speculation, will be available to
business men in need of cash to In
crease production, build factory addii-
tions, buy new machinery and boost
business generally. II is believed.
This will tend to help reduce prices

Part OF the money should be avail

money to finance his work.
No Need For Inquiry.
Unless Federal agencies are proved
to have been concerned there is no
need for Congressional inquiry into
the stock slump. This is the view ex-
pressed by House leaders today. Such
action Is considered as possibility.

NEWTON, n. j., Nov. 13.-with the
arrest of a young man yesterday, Of
fcials here believe they have caught
the man who has jabbed a needle
into arms and backs of a score of
young women recently.
Miss Edith Hopkins. daughter of
County Clerk Hopkins, was on her
way to school when she was accosted
by a young man and felt a sharp
sting in her back. She screamed and
he ran away.
The girl returned home and a ply
sician was summoned. He said a plain
sewing needle probably had been
used. He was certain II was not a
hypodermic needle. The description
given by Miss Hopkins led to the ar
rest of Roy Condit, twenty-five years
of age and married.
Condit protested innocence, but was

Please come along with little imaginary bust

get through, you aren't interested
1t is something about this DEAR beautiful wonderful
romantic historic old town of that all love and all
want to see made the finest in the world.
Here's my imaginary business question: fH yousfol-
low me patiently you find what hope good moral at
the end of it,
For the purpose of this little discussion you are the
owner of comfortable profitable attractive wel-estab
shed growing hotel at let say the southeast
Fourteenth and + streets, where the Ebbtt stands.
Now your imagination has got to jump. Maybe you
thought was jump to put yourself in the hotel bnsness
Jon one of Washingons principal corners but your next
jump is further and harder.
Imagine that the east side of Fourteenth from the
Ebbit to Pennsylvania is vacant lot! That's
going some, isn't ti Nobody but Dr. Tndal remembers
anything like that)
Those imagnations however necessary my story
and keep them in mind you'll have to agree with
In the ultimate conclusions of this arceand that's what
I'm after especially in your Mr. Senator and yours
Mr.. Representative. So please follow carefully.
Now YOU'RE in Business.
You running hotel where the Ebbt now located
You have $50 You have two restaurants Every
night for five years you turn people away because you
haven't enough to meet the demand. Streams of

any rooms to rent them.
Likewise your restaurants turn away and scores
people at breakfast lunch and dinner You crowd your
tables together feed many you and still are
wholly unable take of the huge that flock
Iy our dining rooms.
Now, remember, that been going on for FIVE YEARS
One day you stand out Fourteenth street beside
hotel and you look at the lot between YOUR
hotel and Pennsyvan avenue, and you say:
If just could buy that lot and build extension to
my hotel I'd be able to do lots business
You go into your Office and call up the owner of the
vacant lot.
''How much for your lot next to me7'' you ask
"a hundred thousand dollars,'' he replies
You look at your balance sheet You've made two
