Washington, May 4-Everyb ody
praised President Coolidge's economy
program until he really began to
economze. Then the yelp went up
immediately that he was hurting
business.
1t went up soonest, and still is
loudest, in Washington, because eras-
ing names from the government pay
roll honestly does put crimp into
local trade. Every time a public ser
want loses his job, Washington mer-
chants lose customer. What's more.
even those who aren't fired are
afraid they're going to be, so all OF
them are hanging onto every cent
they can.
Inasmuch rs about half Washing
toms population consists of federal
employees, this counts.
Most Of the de -jobbcd government
toilers leave for their respective
home towns directly after dismissal
They have to get back where they're
acquainted, to look for work. Gen
orally they probably are better of
for being driven out into the cold
world of private activity which, il
| more strenuous, also averages bet
ter pay than the governments. Few
of them look at it thus, however
The way they tell it, they're victims
of perfect hystera of pennyplnch-
ing. They simply were indispensable
in Washngt on, too. Others nigh
have been spared, but without them
selves the government will 20 smash

mony." (Which is what thrift i
called when it does hit "us,')
Not only is wedding out Of indi

SHOTGUN FAILS
TO BREAK NEW
SPECTACLE GLASS

London, May 4.-Unsplinterable
glass for spectacles has at last been
perfected, according to scientists who
witnessed demonstration in London
recently when hammers and even a
shot gun were used to prove the con-
tention of the manufacturers. This
glass, it is claimed, may be ground
to any lens curvature required for
eye glasses and spectacles, and is in
tended particularly for the use of
sportsmen and football players who
otherwise might have their sight in
jured by splinters or broken glass
in crash or through accident.
Included in the test was demon
stration in which the lenses were
fired at with a shot gun from dis
lance of 30 yards. No shot pene-
trated the glass, said the experts,
and no splinters flaked loose.
Though unsplinterable sheet glass
has been in existence several years
being used for motor wind screens
aviators' goggles and the like, scien-
lists declared they had not been able
to produce a hard, clear, safety glass
that would take the curves prcscrib-
ed by opticians for spectacle lenses

The bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce calls attention to the fact
that in the last five years Americans
have invested So 300, 100000 in enter

on top of huge investments prior to
the five-year period. Nor does it

remarks. Why not? Oh. because if
America ever gets into war with any
of the countries where the money is,
they'll simply turn it over to their
alien property custodians and it
will be gone for keeps. That's what
we did with German private prop

course he thinks others will be
glad to initiate if ever they get the
chance.
