HOOVER MEETINGS

less Gloom.

1.-THE conferences which President
Hoover has held in Washington with
leaders in major fields of economic &C
tivity have done much to restore con-
fldence by demonstrating the vast pro-
grams of industrial rebuilding and ex-
pansion that lie ahead" it is declared
in the current issue of the News 3ulle-
tin on Economic Conditions issued by
the National City Bank of New York,
which is edited by George E. Roberts,
former director of the mint, a vice
president of the financial house.
In regard to general business condi-
tians. the bulletin states:
THE termination of distress liquida-
ton in the stock market has been &C
companied by better feeling generally
on the part of the public toward bust
ness. AS people have had opportunity
to bring a calmer judgment to bear on
what has transpired they are coming to
realize that the prosperity of the coun-
try Is not dependent upon the fluctua-
lions of the stock market. This is not
to say that the fluctuations in the mar
ket do not affect business, for it Is a
we'll known fact that they do, both psy.
chologically and by affecting the pur,,
chasing power OF large number OF
people. Such fluctuations, however, are
not the major influence in shaping the
course of business. In the end the
stock market must be guided by bust
ness. and not business by the stock
market. If the business situation Itself
is sound. as We feel it is, then business
should have no need to fear serious o.
protracted depression.
Business Was Receding.
Gwen before the cecline of stock
prices, business was receding from the
unusually high levels of the Spring anc
Summer, and doubtless the occurrence!
in the stock market will tend to inten
sify this decline. Loss of buying powel
on the part of many people will un.
doubtedly have its effect on various in.
dustries catering directly to the public
and the natural heSitancy induced by
the severity of the market decline may
temporarily affect some other lines al
well. Obviously it is still too early Il
tell much about this, but admitting al
these possibilities. we are still unable Il
be gloomy over the outlook.
1.-THE essential fact, wherein the pres
ent differs from most periods OF grea
stock market declines in the past, L
that business itself is healthy and ha!
not been involved IN overexpansior

actual work will begin on a building
program, which involves an ultimate
expenditure of more than $4,000, 900
and which it is hoped will be completed
by 1882 so that Washington Cathedral
may be the scene of an inspiring reli-
gious service in commemoration of
George Washington's two hundredth
birthday anniversary.
The first $4,000 cubic feet of stone
was ordered early in the Summer after
funds for its purchase had been secured
in a special effort conducted by COM
mittee headed by former Senator
George Wharton Pepper. It is esti-
mated that the entire amount of stone
| required will exceed 100000 cubic feet.

A design after the manner of the old
Maryland colonial houses, whose archi-
tectural mode has continued to charm
through the years, has dictated the
form of the new home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Duncan Phillips, now rapidly nearly
completion on spacious, partly forest
ed site lying along Ridge road between
Wesley Heights and FoXhall Village.
The dominating features of the sill
houette of the house are the central
portion and two balancing wings on
either side, with relatively low connect
ing links. -Four distinctive, tall CHM
neys rise above the roof of the main
section of the structure, with two of
lesser height rising above either wing
to carry out the symmetry.
The wings each terminate in octag-
onal bays, form which Is found in
the old Montpelier mansion near Laurel,
Md, and the Hammond Harwood house
at Annapolis.
The house is located on the highest
hlllock Of the property, from which the
rolling terrain falls away in slopes, COW
cred with picturesque old cedars From
the front terrace of the house there is
view to the east over the Georgetown
University spires, down the Potomac,
and somewhat to the left, the upper part
of the Washington Monument. The

to make possible this vista from its

limited amount of white marble has
been introduced in the form of arches

treatment of the house. such as cornices
and columns, is carried out in wood, de-
signed with the refinement Of detail
characteristic of the old work.

The chairman Of the Fine Arts body
thus raises his voice publicly in sup
port of the movement started by Presi-
dent Hoover for radical changes in the
facial appearance of the State, War and
Navy home, to make it conform in ex-
terror style to the Treasury Department
Building, which balances the White
House on the east.
The Navy Department, crowded out
Of its partnership with State and War,
the writer points out, has found refuge
in temporary cement building that,
during the World War, was permitted
to usurp a great slice of the lands de-
voted to the Lincoln Memorial" This,
he continues, amounted to AN intru-
sion into the design of Potomac Park,
which has become little better than an
open-air garage for automobiles of en-
ployes.
THE State Department must soon
find new quarters, for it, too, is being
pushed out on the porticoes. Perhaps
it may be deemed wise to find a new
location for the War Department, and
to remodel the ridiculous architectural
creation into Offices for the
President and the Department Of State,
thereby providing meeting places of in
ternational conferences and facilities
for entertaining greater gatherings than
the domestic White House can accom-
modate.

Scientists are proving the health
value of the vibration we think of as
light. Shut out the light and you shut
out health. In the twilight zones grow
bacteria and the enemies to mans
health. Even outdoors, when the shade

germs cannot live under exposure to
sunlight. 1t is mans friend. We must
