BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON. Aug. 12.-Flap.
perism is slowly passing in the
United States. according to Deets
Picketts. research secretary of the
Methodist board of temperance and
public morals. Furthermore, the
world at large is getting better and
more people are going to heaven, he
said in an exclusive interview.
THE Flapper mode was the young
women's reaction to freedom"
Picketts said. After the war, girls
became more independent and were
freed from a certain state of society
oppression.
After a splurge of unique mod
ernism they are gradually adjusting
themselves to better standards. A
new type Of modern, sensible Amer
lean girl is developing from the flap
per rags.
There is no real harm in paint,
powder, short skirts or boyish hobs.
Some carry it to extremes. That is
vulgarity rather than immortality"
Picketts said one reason why
f1apperism is dying is that the av-
erage young men do not approve it.
He said the boys liked to go out with
the ultra-modern girls, but when it
came time to select a. wife, the
young men usually proposed to
young women with some old-fash-
Toned ideas, at least.
Meantime, Christianity Is spread.
Ing and the world is becoming NOR
ally BETTER" Picketts continued.
THE world is passing through a pc.
Rod Of chaos where people have be.
gun to adjust their spiritual minds
and forge ahead to cleaner stand
ards.
There is less immortality. less
real SHINING now than there was 100
years ago, but there is more vul-
garity."

Bv United Press
NEW YORK. Aug. 12.-Active
demand for high-grade rails was the
outstanding feature of today's SEES
sion. Atchison and Norfolk &
Western reached the best prices Of
their market career, while brisk
buying also went ahead in New
York Central, Canadian Pacific and
other issues with dividend records
of long standing.
This demonstration of strength in
the rails was particularly impressive
in view of the fact that the specu
lative community was frankly wor.
ried about the outcome of the To-
cal federal reserve board meeting
after the close, at which the ques-
ton of continuance Of the 3k per
cent rediscount rate was scheduled
to come up for consideration.
In addition the General Motors
dividend meeting was a source of
uncertainty so that the trading fra
ternity was in a nervous state all
day. This condition was reflected
in extremely erratic fluctuations
among the industrial leaders. Fur
Their bad breaks took place in steel
and General Motors during the
morning, the latter breaking below
200 on heavy offerings. Large stop.
loss orders were caught on this drop.
which appeared to strengthen the
stocks technical position. After
rebounding to 200 again it met
support above that price during the
remainder OF the session, notwith.
standing determined professional
efforts to force it lower.

LONDON. Aug. 12.-Work on the
palatial new quarters which will

together and converted into one big
luxurious building. Altogether there
are fifty.two rooms including a de-
lightful suite for Mrs. Houghton
which comprises a bedroom. boudoir
and sewing room. a visitors re-
ceiving room and Houghton's own
special suite.
About 100000 was spent on the
buildings by Morgan when he re-
sided there. and s15o,00O additional
has just been spent by the Ameri-
can government ir reconstructing
and redecorating the buildings for
embassy purposes.
