When the Buffalo team, consisting of boys. won the eastern regional Championship in Walnut Hill park recently the many spectators agreed that it was an organization of unus- ual brilliance The spectators djd not guess wrong.

IMMIGRATION BODY
 MAY BE REVAMPED
House Group. Wants to Deal
 With Mexican Immigrants

Washington, Sept. ' LP - More than two weeks before the gavel calls the house back into session. there has arisen a demand for the organization of the house immigra- ton committee, so that it may be ready to tackle the Mexican immi- grafton problem in the early days of the regular session.
 While 1t is asserted that certain defects in several of the immigra- tion bills passed in the closing weeks of the roth congress exist and should be corrected, belief has grown among some of the commit tee members that it should be or Ganizcd early to renew it's work on a western hemisphere restriction measure.
 The old box bill on which extend cd hearings were held in the last congress, must be revised, it is pointed ouh if it is to be reintro- duced, since, as the measure stood, 1t would have applied the old quota regulations to western hemisphere nations. Since the hearings on that measure, the national origins pro- visions have gone into effect, and some changes would be necessary if the bill is to be made to fit the existing quota laws.
 However, some members of the committee have come to believe that other means than quota limi- tations might be worked out for dealing with Mexican immigration. They pointed out that special meth ods were worked out for handling the Japanese and Chinese problems and suggested that special legisla- ton might be written to halt the procession of MeXicans they say are coming into competition with American laborers.

stop -thru-trahc"

yellow stop p-thru-traffic' signs which have been distributed along the sidestrcets near where they jut into the main stem.
 Our grapevine authority tells us that the traffic regulators are not at all pleased about it. The trouble seems 10 be that old habits are long in dying. And in order to accelerate the education being disbursed warn- ings will be issued and after that the process of pulling in" some of the offenders will start.
 And We have been wondering whether even that will do much good. Any student of human nature will agree that the outlook is at least gray if not dark.
 And there is the education given free gratis 10 the lordly pedes- trians. After d motorist downtown parks his car he becomes a pedes- trian, and We have been noting with mingled feelings. that everybody does not seem to be thoroughly educated about the traffic blinkcrs. It is our opinion, too, that they never will i'm bibe enough Of this species of cdu- cation. The amber lights take longer in coming than any Of the others and too many of Us seem to be in a hurry.
 Under the circumstances We con- tinue to pin our faith in traffic cops. i There is something human about q traffic cop, and nobody. whether in an automobile or on shoeleather. needs to wait second longer than is necessary, Doing business with q ! traffic cop is not the standardized procedure that one meets with in connection with blinker or sign. | The cop pushes traffic of all types right ahead and everybody feels safe and satisfied, Besides, it is an evil looking person indeed who doesn't get a smile and how-do from the traffic cop, and that in itself makes | for good feelings.
 Another thing: The traffic cops do not try 10 educate anyone. They l themselves have all the necessary education required to facilitate travel, and the motorist and pedes- trian doesn't need to worry. And when some smart alcck disobeys his hand waved signal he gets pinched. or at least is subject to a verbal dis cussion.
 These mechanical toys doing traf- fife duty don't do that. They don't do thing but rile folks. And it is promised that before the traffic regulators get through flock of ad- ditional automatons will go into place. just as soon as the city can find the money to buy them. All in the name of labor saving machinery
New Britain herald., 1929-09-07

Political observers in Washington seem to be agreed that among the opponents Of the proposed tariff measure will be found numerous stalwart Republicans from the West. These, it is said, will oppose increases in the industrial section of the bill, And without their aid the bill cannot pass The outlook gets worse every day. The longer the delay and the re- sulting opportunity for analysing the proposed industrial tariff changes, the less the likelihood of a united front by the very party which in theory is supposed to favor as much tariff as possible.

Barber Reveals Secrets of Running Up Your Bill.

of Running Up Your Bill.
 Now the truth may be told.
 You males who have often won dered how a barber wheedles you into buying more service than you expected, read on.
 4 tonsorial specialist of long eX- periencc has explained how it is done.
 When a customer comes into the place of business, the face of the barber lights up. He runs up to his chair and stands at attention like tin soldier. The custo1ner sits in the chair and the enterprisins bar Der asks his needs. The barber's face takes on a sad look when he finds his customer wants only a shave. The barber proceeds to shave his man and, being an expert, is finished within a few minutes. The barber. however, has not only shaved his customer. He has talk cd him into getting haircut. This talking a man into getting a haircut is one of the abilities of good bar Der. When the barber is about half finished with his job of hair cutting, he remarks about the beauty of his customers hair. The barber notices that the man is susceptible to sug- gestionS, so he states that his hair is starting to fall out and is badly in need of a singe. The customer gruffly asks how much the singe will cost but instead of telling him the price the barber remarks that he will be well satisfied with the price and will receive more benefits than the price could possibly cover. While singeing the customers hair | the barber asks him where he has | been working. The barber tells his victim how dusty his hair is and after telling him how soiled the pill lows will be tom orrow from his head | he asks that famous question: Don't you want shampoo, sir?'' ! The customer looks at the barber feels of his hair and before he can assent, or dissent. the enterprising barber has his shampoo ready, The shampoo, finished. the barber is about to let his victim go when scrutinizing the mans face closely he notices many flesh worms. The barber looks aghast at his customer and gives him a short treatise on blackheads, explaining how easily they can be removed, and how they detract from a mans appearance He removes some and exhibits them The barber is asked how much tho massage costs as he is working or the mans face. When the barbel is finished he has one more thing to do-comb his customers hair Hair tonic is so beneficial and cost! so little," says the barber as h. applies it to his customers head.
 Then the whole job is completed
 The super salesman has no T'or'
 wares to sell. He has not the hear
 to make his customer take home <;
 bottle of hair tonic. He will sav'
 that trick for rainy day.
