President Hoover Dealt a Solar
Plexus Blow

There are thousands Of Spanish American war vet
Grams. Names Of many Of these veterans have never
appeared on the pension rolls. The American con-
gress enacted a bin hberaizing the pension law,
granting a small increase per mslsh In the pension
paid to those who needed pensions rr gallant SER
vice TO the flag and the honor OF the nation and en-
aiding those who had not been enrolled to place their
names on the honor list.
President Hoover vetoed this most meritorious bill.
His veto message was sent TO the congress. What
happened filled the White House with gloom and sent
dismay to the hearts OF the champions OF his veto
measure. This is the record. the senate voted 81 TO
10 to override the first veto message Of the president
10 be acted upon and the house voted 29s to IA in pass
ing the bill over the presidential veto knife.
1t was the most crushing rejection OF a veto mes
sage that has taken place under the big dome in the
city Of Washington for many decades. Rifle bearers
OF the republic who are willing to shed their blood on
the field Of battle in defense Of the republic and It's
flag are entitled to the very best that the national
law makers can give them.
All honor to Senator Tom Connally Of Texas. He
Is a veteran Of the Spanish American war. He led
the fight in the senate for the rejection Of the veto
message and the enactment Of the bill. All honor to
Morris Sheppard. He stood with Connally in de-
Tense Of the veterans Of all the wars who are in the
land Of the living today.
Lest we forget. it was veterans legislation that
brought Calvin Coolidge some Of his biggest reverses
in congress. He had never been a soldier; he had
never barred his bosom to the bullets Of the enemy on
the field OF battle. Ills veto Of the soldier bonus
insurance measure was overriden in both the senate
and the house. He was given q thorough congress
sional spanking, but he mustered a greater following
than President Hoover mustered in defense Of his
veto Of the measure hberalizing pensions for Spanish
War veterans. Coolidge was spanked by a vote OF 50
TO as IN the senate and 3i3 70 10 IN the house. Place
the vote in the official register.

Arizona Bank Closes It's Doors

Way out in Arizona the Yuma Valley bank, the
largest financial institution Of that section, has closed
its doors. Its president had an abb. Depleted re-
sources occasioned by low prices Of farm commodi-
ties especially the condition OF the cotton market. he
said, caused the closing. Some day the cotton grow
es Of America may be banded together as one man,
use their brains as well as their hands ari their plows,
study cotton economies and be in a position to make
drastic cuts in the acreage planted In planting time
when they know the number Of bales OF cotton that
constitutes the carry-over from the preceding year
as well as the condition Of the cotton textile trade in
the mills and the markets Of the world. This is a
scientific age, and farming Is a scientific game as
well as a great gamble.

The Once Over
BY RADIO

LAALN IL A1RDAO
Copyright, 1890, by The Associated Newspapers)
The latest news is that a radio tube may soon re-
place the furnace, parlor stove and kitchen range for
hearng purposes. Radio is seen as the heating plant
Of the future. 1t viii ultimately give you entertain
ment programs. political speeches. news events. tele-
vision pictures, a hot fire and plain home cooking.
Whole families viii be able to keep comfortable by
twisting a dial, and when a man suddenly feels a
little chilled while sitting in a draft during a blizzard
ne will know that something is wrong with his wave
length or B batteries.
Fever tubes" will DO the business. The room viii
be equipped with condenser plates between the walls.
Heat waves viii be projected through the human body.
inducing a fever which will make a tenant asleep in a
snowbank think he is having a nap in a Turkish
bath.
II you're cold you just turn the dial until you get
a rush Of blood to the nead. If the gale is bowling
outside your window and you feel about to develop a
fever you will know that your radio heating system is
all right.
But If you still feel chilly you rap on the set for the
Radio Corporation to send up more heat.
You may figuratively kindle the fire with Amos n
Andy, build 1t up with the Goldbergs, fan 1t with the
~gingerale hour and keep it going with symphony or
chestras, Literary Digest programs and political ad-
dresses.
What will the American Of tomorrow do for his ex-
ercise? Nothing used to keep him more active than
the care Of the old-fashioned coal-burning furnace.
When the chill winds blew, science stretched forth its
hand and offered but one instrumental good old
fashioned shovel. When the blizzard howled with
out, you knew the occasion called for more coal not
for more radio appliances.
II the fire went out during the night you had TO
get UP in the cold and put in a laborious hour dump
ing the ashes and building a new blaze. 1t was Moth
ing that could be done with an outside aerial and a
set Of dry batteries. Keeping the house comfortable
during the winter was an effort. not an amusement.
n you had difficulty heating the home you notified
the coal man, not an electrician.
But soft days arc ahead. Metallic walls with con-
denser plates are to take the place of the full coal
bin; and the axe. shovel. stoker and crate handle
are to be combined into an artistic dial combining
the hottest features OF each.
The new invention heats the body instead Of the
room. Every person becomes an individual range.
But what the average man Will want to know is
whether, using the fever tubes, he can percolate the
coffee on his shoulders and bake a potato In the hol-
low OF his hand?
