The two exhibitions of fine print
ing, Printing for Commerce." and
Fifty Books of the Year" are to
continue at the Heron Art Institute
through Sept. II, instead of Aug.
81 as announced, owing to an UNI
expected cancellation of the ex-
hibition date which was to have
followed the Indianapolis period at
the art institute.
To many people the interest in a
book or a piece of advertising lies
solely in the text which it presents
for their perusal. It's appearance
is too often insignificant in their
eyes although it must, perforce,
exert a psychological influence upon
them of which they may, however,
be fatally unconscious. But to the
one who has learned the joy of
pleasure in lines and forms, in colors
and textures, and in contrasts, a
book or a piece of advertising or any
other printed matter is at once
significant not only for it's context,
but for any visible qualities of at
tractive "set-up," fine Typography
excellent printing, and other mani
festations of fine craftsmanship.
To such a one the two exhibitions
of Fifty Books of the Year" and
Printing for Commerce." shown in
the court through Sept. IL are full
Of unexpected treats" It is i'm
portant for Indianapolis to have had
the exhibition period extended, as
the prescribed period is ordinarily
two weeks only.
Those who have been interested
in the problem of the Nearer East
during these weeks of benefiicence
on the part of citizens of Indianapo-
lis and other cities for the felief Of
people of the Nearer East will be
interested in seeing an important
exhibition of the art Of these peo-
pies. Pottery of the thirteenth,
fourteenth and fifteenth centuries is
shown in cases on the east stair
landing. This pottery will be shown
at the institute for a short time
only, when it will be sent to the
museums of Denver, Oma ha, Day
ton, Baltimore, Buffalo, Los Angeles,
Rochester and Milwaukee.
The color scheme of the colonial
exhibition of portraits by Waldo,

Just before the recent first primary in Texas, we
remember vaguely something about Governor MA"

by single vote she wouldn't dare to show her face

We recall also that Ma said something about if
she led Mr. Moody by $4,000 votes he should be ex-

TRACY
White House Spokesman
SmotherS Flare for
Farm Relief.

The great new light with regard
to farm relief did not dawn for
President Coolidge after all.
1t f1ared for a moment, but only
to have the White House spokes-
man hide it under a bushel of higher
priced wheat.
The President, according to this
will O. the wisp mouthpiece, knows
nothing about a scheme to have
big business help the farmer.
That settles the matter, of course,
as long as the grain market remains
bullish.
Meanwhile, the four-day back
ground is worth recording.
Sunday papers seemed quite sure
that, though the administration was
still opposed to direct Government
aid, 1t would look favorably, if not
enthusiastically on the formation
of a 500, 100000 pool by private in
terests for agricultural relief.
Monday papers limited that big
business was not altogether pleased
with the task cut out for 1t.
Tuesday papers found treasury Of
flcials cautious in Secretary Mel
Ions absence, but willing to recall
that a $25, 200, 900 pool of similar
design and object did good work
several years ago.
Wednesday papers found the
White House spokesman insinuating
that the President had no idea what
the commotion was all about.

Water Bill Refused

American consuls can have their
uniforms Numbered at Government
expense, but they can not buy
special drinking water.
Keyne V. Granum, vice consul at
Rangoon. included an item of S11.20
in his expense account for special
drinking water.
By way of explanation, he sub.
mitted a report Of the city health Of
ficer which stated that the municipal
water contained too many micro.
organisms.
The report did not state that the
micro organisms were noxious. so
the comptroller general ruled that
Mr.. Graum's expenditure was not
allowable on the ground that his pur-
chase of special drinking water was
based on mere apprehension of
cholera, dysentery and other diseases
and not on immediate necessity.
In another ruling the comptroller
general held that the laundering of
uniforms worn by consular and
diplomatic representatives was
praperly chargeable to the Govern
meht.

Camp Nelson DOdd

Camp Nelson Dodd was made
possible largely through the
generosity of Mr.. J. Foster Dodd
of Delaware, who gave the orr
ginal site of twenty acres on
which the buildings and tents
stand in memory of his brother
Nelson Dodd, whose life so we'll
exemplified the ideal of the
Camp-the development of mas
ter men after the life of Christ.
The Newark Y. M. G. A. in
connection with it's promotion
campaign is distributing bro
chures showing scenes at the
camp taken in 1925, and also
some interesting data. Among
other things is the statement
that before summer a suspen-
sion bridge will be built across
the river which will give easy
access to the athletic field op-
posite the camp site. This is
one of the most needed improve
ments at the camp and will
greatly facilitate transportation
across the river, especially when
the water is high.

A TIRELESS WORKER

The union label is a tireless
worker for the cause of trade un-
ionism and the only fuel it needs
to keep it going is a demand for
it on all purchases. 1t does not
cost a penny, and it is most
powerful engine of progress. 1t
works in daylight and darkness,
in good weather and bad, in peace
and war, in progress and retro
gression. In fact, in all condi-
tions and under all circumstances
it is the one friend that can be
depended upon never to desert
those in whose cause it is enlist
ed. This wonderful friend is at
the immediate call of every mem
Der of a union, ever ready to
render service. Give it a chance
to do its great work by demand
ing it on everything you buy.

The corn belt spoke, and in accents

Notwithstanding the fact that Sena-
tor Albert B. CumminS, who was

supporting the McNary- y-Haugen bill
for farm relief the Iowa farmers and
many of the business men who have

Another important factor in the

felt among the voters Of Iowa at the
treatment accorded Brookhart in the
Senate, when, some two months ago,
he was unSeated and Senator Daniel
r. Steck, Democrat. declared elected
in his stead. Brookhart had been re-
turned by his State to the Senate

COMMITTEE ASKS
COAL INQUIRY AID
Attorney General Requested
to Send Advice on Means
of Procedure.

Acting in accordance with the de-
cision reached by the Senate District
comittee yesterday afternoon, Chair
man Capper today transmitted the re-
quest that Attorney General Sargent
designate a member of his staff to ad
wise the committee how it may pro-
ceed further in obtaining information
from local dealers as to coal prices in
Washington last Winter.
The committee was prompted to
take this step by the last report it
received from II. A. A. Smith, of
the office of Controller General Nc
Carl, who has been assisting the COM
mittee since it began the coal inquiry
more than four months ago.
Mr.. Smith had been instructed by
the committee to ask a number of
dealers to permit an inspection of
their hooks. The committee did not
have any particular dealers in mind,
h,t wanted figures to serve as the
ba sic for conclusions as to the rea-
sonableness of prices.
M NcCarls representative report
ad that he wrote 10 nine dealers, two
of whom replied they would permit
an examination of their books and a
third stating that his records had
been inspected by the United States
Coal Commission several years ago
and he did not feel he should be sub
iected TO another examination. At the
date of the report. April %, Mr.. Smith
said six of the letters had not been
answered.
Senator Capper said today the COM
mjttee wants to have a representative
of the Attorney General attend the
next meeting of the committee Mon
dav to advise it whether it has author
ity to take any further steps toward
obtaining the information requested.
