BLUE
SKY Law WILL
WORK HARDSHIP

The Dennison blue sky bill before
congress would close the mails, tele-
graph and express facilities 70 any
man offering any security in IA In
dustriai undertaking not passed by
the ''blue-sky'' law.
In other words. a man from Call
fornia, Utah or Wyoming seeking
capital in Iowa for developing a west
ern enterprise rouid not use the mails
to sell his stosk I'm Iowa because his
corporation had not been licensed To
do business by an Iowa blue sky com
mission.
Our federal laws covering fraudu
len use of the mails. our state laws
covering the organization of corpor-
atoms and our blue sky laws offer
every safeguard necessary to prevent
the public being swindled. In the face
of such protection it IS uncalled for
meddling with business &c further
handicap the man seeking to develop
natures with laws which
would require so much legal advice
and expense that 1t would discourage
tho average man from undertaking
the task.

In broadway Rose which opened
yesterday Al the America theatre.
Mae Murray has again added to the
dramatic interest OF n powerful love
story a dazzling production conspicu-
Gus for Its gorgeous settings and Won
derful costumes. Not the least ister-
esting parts of the picture are those
episodes where Miss Murray is given
opportunity to display her ability as a
dancer. There she becomes the IDOL
of Broadway II receives the adula-
ton which is showered on the favor
ties of the Gay White Way. Success
in her career onl yserves to increase
desire for the love and happiness
which every woman Graves. And SO
when Hugh Thompson her to
marry him she consents in spite of
the act that she knows that his faith
er will disinherit him for marrying a
dancer. The Thompsons. you see.
were Of the Fifth avenue elite and
had an aristocratic young debutante
already picked out for their son, So
when they heard the news through a
detective they got exceedingly busy
with son Hugh. The result added CON
siderabiy TO Eosalie's knowledge of
human nature but nothing at all to
her happiness. However, that young
lady SOC learned that happiness is
often just around the corner. and In

Hundreds Without Work by Re-

An extraordinary building boom
features the employment situation in
Washington, according to survey of
the situation here by the United

Work has started on several struc-
lures to cost approximately S3,250,OOO

bricklayers, plasterers and timers.

of carpenters and other building
tradesmen is equal to the demand.
Laborers have no trouble in Secur-
ing steady employment.
Clerks Out Of Jobs.
While the industrial situation re-
mains good, unemployment among
general clerical workers remains
heavy, with additions of furloughed
employees from the government de-
partments, which have suffered re-
duced appropriations. the report as

the navy yard made reductions in
its forces, throwing a large number
of machinists out of work.
Increase in the number of employees
in laps concerns throughout the
United States is noted in the report.

current in the direction of an in
duStrial recovery is evident, not
withstanding difficulties incident to
lack of fuel and transportation. Ev-
idence of this is found, the report
asserts, in decided increases in ten
