The Sleepy Hollow drama was q
demonstration Of the Socony sub
sidy which only WEAF and its New
England constituents enjoyed the
remainder Of us being compelled to
accept with 1t heavy crashes Of
static and constant fading. 1t was
produced BY Gerald Stopp and his
associates, who realized all the
comedy OF the various legendary
situations without losing 4 bit Of
their poetry.
Between crashes OF static the
clear voice OF Mabel Garrison came
to us from WOR with AL the Zine
mellow tone and uncanny flexi-
i1ity that have made II famous.
The Voters Service speakers, j.
Fred Essary and Charles j. Ross,
made interesting comment on po-
liticaI affairs in the early hours.
The Seiber1ings exhibited good
vocal control and orchestral speed,
after the w. b. and a. quartet had
essayed quite d few things its al
mirers asked Il to crowd into its
weekly WRC half hour. The Silver
String Jewellers made q lively APP
pearance with the Movie Club as a

DRIVE IN EAST

The Republican national commit
tee today formally recognized the
East the battle-ground OF the Presi-
Dental campaign and disclosed plans
for one of the greatest Organization
drives in history on the Atlantic sea
board.
Declaring that the Democrats
have virtually challenged their OPP
ponents to meet them on their own
ground I'm the East, National Chair
man Hubert Work asserted that he
was ready for the fight.
Work returned to his desk today
after a trip which carried him to
the Pacific coast. Not only had he
concluded that the greatest Repub-
lican opposition is In the East. but
he found reports from his scouts"
to this effect.
Apparently satisfied that the West
is safe but taking no chances,
Work also indicated that he would
meet the Democratic drive for far
mers' votes by a counter-attack be-
low the Mason and Dixon line.
The wet and dry issue will be vir-
tually ignored in the Eastern cam
paign, Work indicated. He said not
word about the attack of DR..
NlcnOIa0 Muffay butIeT1 PRESIDENT OF
Columbia University, upon the dry
expressions OF Herbert Hoover, the
Republican nominee.
Instead. he declared, the Repub-
licans are going before the people
on the ground that the country 10
prosperous and that nothing can be
gained by changing administrations.
THE people are enjoying more
leisure and higher wages, and the
result Is more prosperity and con.
tentment than at any previous time
In the history OF the country" Chair
man Work declared. THE question
uppermost in the minds of the peo-
pie seems to be, Why change and
disrupt the orderly processes of
Government which would involve
slowing down business.
Work found reports from Earle
Kinsley, Republican national com.
mitteeman from Vermont and his
assistant, and John Barrett, for
mer director-genera1 of the Pan
American Union. awaiting him.
Both have just completed Eastern
surveys and predicted hard fights

RAIL STRIKE

CLEVELAND. Aug. 22.-Another
arbitration meeting, to be held IN
Chicago, September 4, may forestall
threatened strike by 10000 west
ern railroad employees, A. f. Whit
ney, president of the Brotherhood
OF Railway Trainmen, said today.
The last arbitration meeting came
Ito an abrupt finish when com.
mittee, rpresenting the trainmen
and the order of railway conductors,
left the meeting and ordered strike
ballots prepared and circulated
among the members of the two
unions.
The unions had asked wage in
creases. ranging from 10 to Is per
cent, contending that present wage
scales are below those paid yard
men, trainmen and conductors by
railroads in the East and South.
The western roads offered a ia per
cent increase on condition that the
unions consent to the abolishing of
certain working rules.
At this point the union repre-
sentatives left the meeting. A
strike vote is now being taken.
The ballots are to be counted Sep
TENDER 2. and while the result will
not be made public at that time,
the unions are expected to make it,
one of their chief argumentative
weapons in the September 4 con-
ference.
]. w. Higgins. of Chicago, is to
head a COMMITTEE representing the
railroads at the conference. Whit
ney said he would leave here for
Chicago, September j. He said he
hoped an agreement could be
reached, settling the dispute, but
that messages he had received con.
corning results of the vote in west.
ern cities indicate that the two
unions are willing to enter into
Joint strike.

tides OF gold have reduced the
American credit base, and may call
for permanently larger draughts

Balance BETTER
Another outstanding character
istic Of the new economic situa-
tion Is q better balance between
urban and rural prosperity than
has prevailed since the post-arm-
istice boom. In spite Of the re-
cent weakness IN wheat, reflect
ing d bumper crop, and the set

try presage the best rural condi-
tiOns since 1919. The improve
ment is partly the cumulative e.
feet OF a gradual rise Of farm
prices in terms OF prices for city
merchandise since 1898. The re-
covery has enabled the more 81
ficient and successful farmers To
get their debts under control and
to nQtiidate bank loans.
May Retard Trade
Whether higher interest retep
will actually retard trade Il an
other matter. The cl1ief damperi-
ing effect Is likely to be to cut
down the demand for new ffnainc-
ing for the purpose OF expansion
and development. IL this occurs,
the stimulus from this type OF
activity will be reduced. Further
more, high interest rates viii
tend to make instalment selling
still more expensive, and may
make this important means of
distribution relatively less at
tractive to consumers.
With seasonal demand for
credit about to expand. the Fed

lost the race against time to
correct the brokers loan situation.

sonal ease viii be January and
February.
Three Major Issues
Between now and the first Of
the year only three important
factors could contribute to Off
setting tendencies toward high
interest rates. First, the fact that
interest rates are higher in New
York than in London and Paris
may attract gold to this center.
despite the policy Of foreign cen
trail banks to retain the precious
metal within their borders.
Secondly, q liquidation In the
stock market, IL another should
occur, will tend to release some
credit now tied up in collateral
loans. Thirdly, temporary re-
versal Of the open market policy
Of the Federal Reserve authorities
at the height Of the crop moving
period would contribute to the
supply OF available credit. Sea-
sonal expansion OF exports and 4
reduction Of tourist expenditures
in the fall should direct = flow 81
funds from abroad to this center.
