rate of six billion dollars year.
Whether this rate will be kept up
remains to be seen of course. So
far this year substantially 45 per
cent of our building operations has
gone into homes, and large part
of this represents home-ownership.
While it is not possible to tell
how many millions of dollars will
have been absorbed by new home
owning projects this year. 1t can
be said that more Americans are
now owning homes Of their own
than ever before.
This is partly due to the subur-
ban migration now taking place
throughout the country.
Good roads and the automobile
have helped. That is, they have
made the movement possible, but
what has been back of it all has
been the desire Of the people to
enjoy better standards Of living
to live amidst the beauties and
comforts Of semi-rural existence
where they may have their own
gardens and flowers and ample
room for rightful recreation and
pleasure.
This great movement has a pro-
nounced thrift aspect because
thousands of Americans are be-
coming home owners today who
would not have taken this step
otherwise.
1t is a fortunate circumstance
that this great movement-thism mi
grafton to the suburbs, which is
bringing with it such tremendous
amount of home-ownership-ha
been started. 1t has a general
stabilizing effect the value of which
is beyond calculation.
The man who owns his own
home is a stakeholder Of the
United States. He owns a tangi.
Bile part OF 1t. The erection of his
own home helps create new values
for others as well as for himself.
Through it communities grow and
thrive, and the entire range OF
social conditions is bettered.
1t is development of thrift
activity that should be hailed with
delight everywhere.

New Regulations
BY Supreme Court
On Cases Will Review

Washington, June S-(AP)-The
supreme court today promulgated the
new set of regulations made neces-
sary by legislation passed at the last
session of congress to give 1t greater
discretionary latitude in determining
what cases it will review, and to
bring about a considerable reduction
in it's burden.
Chief Justice Taft also gave notice
that when the court reassembles for
it's next term, October 5, the original
docket, which carries a number of
cases brought by states, would be
called with a view to eliminating all
cases which are not prosecuted with
reasonable diligence. A number of
the cases affected have been decided
by the court, but at the request of
states it has held them on the docket
to retain jurisdiction SO as to enforce
its DEGREES.
One of the most drastic changes in
the courts new rules which take ef-
feet July and render obsolete those
now in force. amends the regulation
governing admission to practice be-
fore the court. Justice Van De Van
ter, selected by the court to explain
, the rules, Shid that despite COM
mendable cooperation on the part OF
the members of the bar to see that
applicants for admission possessed
the necessary qualifications, it had
been found that men under sentence
and others disbarred in their home
states had been admitted to member
ship.
Because of this condition, he as
serted the court has introduced
rule which requires that an appll-
cant possessing the necessary qualifi-
cations shall file with the clerk of the
court a certificate from the presiding
Judge or clerk of the highest court OF
the state where he is admitted to
practice, showing that he possesses
| the requisite qualifications.

New Electric Iron Improvement Re-
suits from Inventors Observation
In Maine Lumber Camp

SUMS ArOAll inventors observation
In Maine Lumber Camp
Observation of a chance happen
Ing In q logging camp in the Maine
woods recently led to an improve
ment on the electric fatiron. The
improvement consists of a small
thermostatic device that automati-
cally turns the temperature off and
on, maintaining it as perfect as pos
sible for ironing.
The inventor. John A. Spencer, oil
the Spencer Thermostat Company
Cambridge. Mass, discovered the
principle of the new device while
visiting a logging camp in the Maine
woods. The particular camp was
equipped with an old-fashioned stove
and right-angled stove pipe which
to all appearances. had an ordinar,
joint with one side of the T closed
by cap. At ordinary room temper.
ature the cap was convex in shape
When the fire was burning, however
the cap would snap suddenly to the
concave position and snap back
when the fire was low.
To the men in the camp this wa.
a familiar occurrence. The snap.
ping back action served as an alarm
clock giving notice that the fire
needed attention.
But the inventor thought about it
and the more he thought about it
1t suggested disc type thermostar
and the principle of quick making
and quick breaking" electric cur,
rent.
The first real bi-metal thermosta
was put on the market in the form
of "fippers" or jumping coins"
The operation of the toy is sim
pie. The disc is heated to the tenn
perature of the body by rubbing il
! the palm of the hand or between
fingers, and mechanically pushing
the convex side of the disc through
so that it changes its shape to con
cave. After the "flipper" Is heated
to the temperature of the body, it Il
/ placed with the then convex sid,
upward on cool hard surface. TIL,
| cooling operation gradually changes
| ever SO slightly the shape of the dis
| until 1t reaches the critical O.
''snalp" through position. AS sool
| as this point is reached the follow
! ing-thropgh" motion takes place 81
rapidly and so forcefully that tn,
disc Immediately jumps into the air
This was only toy. When tn,
piece of bi-metal was much heavie
and changing temperature automati
cally affected it, the force and speet
| of the operation was found appli
cable to Enthusiastically operated
| controls and switches. In this way
disc type thermal switch has beer
developed.
| Among many applications of tn,
| new switch, in electrical, domesti,
an industrial fields, its use in tn,
electric flatiron appears most popu
! lar and revolutionary. BY merely al
| almost inaudible "click" back ant
forth the disc has been made to turf
