so it makes number of remarkable statements about
the investigation.
"The Electric Bond and Share Company has not
objected to being investigated" says the Journal
But, it continues, in horror, 1.-The federal trade
commission demanded access to all files of utility
companies regardless of whether they contained evil
dence pertinent to the declared objects OF the in
vestigaton and regardless OF the private and con-
dental character of much of the company's cor
respondence."
And in protesting, the Journal says, the COM
pany has raised issue of fundamental Importance
whether the constitution protects corporations and
their stockholders from the prying eyes of a fed
eral agency"
The record of the federal trade commission pro-
ceedings shows that information sought from the
Electric Bond and Share Company has followed with
strict fidelity lines laid down by the United States
senate in directing investigation OF public utility hold
ing companies
In practically every instance. questions put by
Chief Counsel Robert E. Heay have followed the
exact wording of the Senate resolution.
Under this it was made mandatory for the COM
mission to find out and report on these things:
Growth OF the capital assets and liabilities of public
utility corporations doing an interstate business de-
tails concerning their security issues extent to which
they control subsidiary companies services rendered
by holding companies and the amount of payment
they receive and the value detrment to the public
OF such holding companies
1t was questions about these matters. declared
pertinent by Commissioner E. C. McCulloch that Of
Ulcers OF the Electric Bond and Share Company refused

should like to hear the Wall Street Journal explain

No information has been sought of the Electric
Bond and Share largest of the holding companies,
which state regulatory bodies do not legally obtain
from local utility companies. No attempt has been
made to get evidence which would harm the COM
panies their clients and stockholders any more than
state regulation harms the clients and stockholders
of local companies.
Until this information is obtained by federal
authority and steps taken to provide regulation for
interstate power business, this great monopoly of
natural resource is practically out of public control

Change Means ProSperit

Politicians continue to tell us that
our prosperity is due to their work,
and that If anything is changed we
are likely to lose it.
AS a matter of common sense, our
prosperity is due to nothing so dis
tinctly as change-change of style,
change of custom, change of method
which creates new markets, makes
room for new enterprises md de-
velops new fields of employment.
What is more, we shall stop being
as we'll off as we are the moment
we interfere with the process Of
change and improvement.

ASSAILS HOOVER
FLOOD STAND
Joe Robinson on Way to
Indiana From St. Louis.

BH United Press
EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill, Oct. 81.
Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Ar
kansas, Democratic vice-presidential
nominee, was en- route to Evansville,
Ind, today, after an address here
in which he declared Herbert Hoo
yer changed front on federal respon-
slbility in flood control expense.
He charged Hoover received inn
mense popularity on his tour OF
investigation of Mississippi valley
flood conditions through his cham
pionship of the cause Of flood suf-
ferers but that when he returned to
Washington he reversed his attitude
and joined others in insisting local
interests should assume a large part
of flood prevention and control ex-
pense.
1.-THE only explanation of Hoover's
change of front is that being a
member of the Presidents cabinct
and having acted in some sense as
an agent of the President, he
readily surrendered his own views
and acquiesced in the Presidents
proposals that flood works. shall be
regarded as joint responsibility o.
the state and of the federal govern
ment," Robinson said.

duties as the editor of Life, wrote his
motion picture criticisms for the
syndicate for which he writes, as
we'll as for his own publication, and
even attended daily rehearsals for
his play, 1.-THE Love Nest" which
also meant altering and revising its
script almost daily.
No, this is how the record of play
writing came about. Into the edi-
torial sanctum of Life" there ap-
peared one day the actor, Roland
Young, with the challenge-query,
why, don't you do me a play, Bob?"
Young continued with the eXplana-
ton that Arthur Hopkins, the pro-
Queer, was looking for a play for
him and would give anything play
able a chance.
Sherwood then brought to light an
idea which had terminated shortly
before as dramatic nucleus, but
which he had considered even in its
embryonic stage with regard to a
different actor. He soon changed his
mind after talking with Young,
however, who was wildly enthusi-
astic about the idea" In fact, Mr..
Young persuaded the busy editor to
begin the first act that night.
He also stayed up most of the two
following nights to finish the act,
which was Immediately hurried over
to Hopkins. Hopkins, contrary to his
usual won't, read the opening portion
of the new play and was eager to re-
ceive the remainder.
The next two weeks were frenzied
ones for Sherwood, and equally so
for Young, who parked on his trail'
constantly until the play was fin
ished, following him to his Office, to
lunch, to his home at dinner time.
The comedy was finished and
wicked off to Mr.. Hopkins, but
that well-known producer was busy
rehearing Pauline Lords new play
and could not read the finished
script until several days later.
To take the play to Messrs. VIM.
A. Brady Jr., and Dwight D. Wiman
was tinidly suggested, and imme-
diately acted upon. That was Fri
day, we are told, when the play
wright turned out 1.-THE Queens
Husband" and Brady and Wiman
received it.
On Monday, the play was cast
and met for its first rehearsal I'M
der the direction of John Cromwell.
It opened at the Providence opera
house, Providence, r. L, on January
16, 1923, and had its New York
premiere at the Playhouse, on Janu-

Commissioner.

Charles w. Kern, school commits
sioner, hasn't much use for "all this
talk" about sanitation, it developed
ct the school board meeting Tues
cay night.
The discussion started with sug-
Gestion Of Superintendent Charles
T. Miller that Indianapolis modern
ize it's elementary school system by
installing paper towels in school
buildings, so pupils can wash their
hands.
None of the grade schools is given
towels or soap, some principals pro-
viding rags instead of towels, Miller
said.
II saw a set of pictures passed
around in one schoolroom and by
The time the pictures got back to
the teacher, they we're almost black
from grinny little hands," President
Theodore F. Vonnegut said.
BOsh, Says Kern
A motion that cost of placing the
towels in all grade schools be in
vastigated was passed, with Kern
voting a vigorous may"
"ADd I mean no." he said. "a lot
Of this talk about sanitation is bosh.
If you would follow out all these
llygienic rules, you would have to
sterilize a door handle before you
opened the door, because someone
else had touched it.
Children should be sufficiently
sterilized at home in the morning
to last all day."
The board elected Carl w. Eurton
to succeed Jacob H. Hilkene, re-
signed, as building and grounds
superintendent. Eurton, assistant to
Iiilkene for three years, has been
acting superintendent for several
weeks.
Frank Osler, a school engineer,
was named Eurton'S assistant. APP
pointment of Eurton and Osler was
recommended in a letter from the
indianapolis Engineering Society.
Gets Salary Increase
Eurton's salary was fixed at $4,000
and Osler'S at $4,000 a year. AS as
sistant, Eurton was paid $4,000.
Two delegations from Irvington
and Brightwood were heard, asking
improved branch libraries. Spokes-
man for the Irvington delegation
was George S. Cottman, 1886 North
Ritter avenue. The Rev. Victor B.
Hargitt, 2414 Station street, repre-
sented the Brightwood Civic League.
"Out in Irvington we are more
interested in books than in most
any other section of the city, yet
we have the second worst branch
library building in the CITY," Cott-
man said.
