WHEN THE PRESIDENT REGINS TO DOUBT

President Hoovers attitude to- ward prohibition has been commonly regarded as akin to that of a bone dry citizen who cannot see anything but good in the law. He has been regarded as a bone dry President. Perhaps he is; but evidence is be- shining to shape up that the Presi- dent has some doubts about the pos- sibilities of enforcement. This de- yelopment in the Presidents atti- tude, when duly confirmed, will be heartbreaking to many a dryswho has regarded the President as one of the Nerduns of the prohibition line.
 Far from being set in his ways about prohibition, it is likely that the President prefers to have an open mind about it. In this manner he is no different than millions of other citizens, who are neither radically dry nor radically wet, but who have been watching the noble experiment with an unbiased atti- tude.
 Ultimately it is these who will decide what to do about the law, and not the outstanding drys and vets.

MASS CONSUMPTION IN THE PHONE INDUSTRY

In almost every industry there IS an often-repeatcd axiom that the greater the consumption the greater the production to meet it, and the lower the price to the ultimate con- sumner.
 In the telephone industry this rule seems to be set aside. Phone officials tell us, especially when there is thought of raising the rates, tbat the telephone business is different from any other industry and that the more telephones are needed in a city the greater the cost of meeting the de- mand, and the higher the rates.
 Tn nations biggest telephone in- dustry is centered in New York City, where in the metropolis and it's environs more than 6,00O,o00 people need to be served, quite a percentage of whom are telephone subscribers.
 Last February the New York tele- phone company got raise in rates, after much acrid discussion on both sides; now it asks another raise. Cost of plant extensions, interest on investment, depreciation and repro duction cost all enter in the com- panys contentious, which have been placed before the New York Pubic Service Commission for considera- ton.
 Manifestly, if the telephone indus try's contentious are correct, then one shudders indeed as to what the telephone rates in New York will be when and if the metropolitan dis trict of New York ever reaches the 20,OO0,OO0 population mark. The rates in the greater city already are higher than elsewhere by a con- siderable margin, due it is said to the large population that needs tc be served; and if the rates progress siVely increase with the increase of population the future may see tele- phones in that city somthing for business concerns alone, and not a convenience for the average run Of ia miles.
 Through it's consistent demands for more money the New York Tele- phone company has made itself quite as unpopular as the Interboroush Rapid Transit Company; and that is saying considerable.

THE IINDBERGHS' RECORD
 FLIGHT

In flying across the continent in approximately 14 hours, Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh set new mark i'll cross-country speed. Even with one stop midway, the Lindberghs sur passed the previous nonstop record of Hawks, established last year.
 The intrepid colonel made an es- pecially noteworthy contribution to aviation when he rode above the bad weather extending over Illinois and the Mississippi Valley. Gndeter- red by adverse weather reports when landing for fuel at Wichita, the Colonel decided to ride over the storm high above the clouds. A lit tie decision like that is nothing in the Colonel's life.
 There is considerable difference between Colonel Lindbergh and even the ordinary good fliers. The Colonel seems to have something that is born in him. He is more than an eX- pert. He is a genius of the air.

BATTLE LOOMS IN
 REPORT 0N TARIFF
Democrats Predict Spirited De-
 bate When Facts Are Issued

Washington, April q R>-Demo- cratic spokesmen are anticipating a spirited debate on the conference re- port on the tariff bill.
 In statements issued today, Sena- tor Wheeler of Montana, and Rep resentative Garner of Texas, the party leader in the house, asserted that the conference committee was ignoring the farmer and placing the highest possible duty on industrial commodities.
 In addition, Wheeler said that objectionable as is this tariff bill 1t does not meet with the disapproval of President Hoover" The chief ex- ecutiye, he added, must have known in advance of it's writing that the republican leadership in con- gress would put up to him exactly the kind of bill to be reported by the conference committee
 Compelled Acceptance
 The Montanan went on 10 say that the republican conference had compelled the acceptance of house rates wherever they happened to be higher than the rates proposed in the senate bill and wherever the senate rates were higher than the house rates they were substituted for the latter"
 Garner. who Is one Of the con- ferees. said: Agriculture as usual has been ignored by the triff manip- ulators, who in a few days have undone the work accomplished by the senate coalition in behalf of the farmers and consumers
 He termed the industrial rates ac- ceptcd by the conference ''indefen- sible' and asserted that instead of the limited revision recommended by President Hoover the "represen- tatives Of industry were forcing" a general revision through congress.
 Finished with the rate schedules, except for a half dozen that must be taken back to the house for indi- ridual votes, the conferccs today turned to the administrative provi- sions Of the bill.

BETTER TIMES DUE IN BUILDING INDUSTRY

Building construction in the United States normally amounts to $s,ooo, ,o0o,OOo year.
 This is more than the gross oper- ating revenue of all the railroads in the country and approximately twice the value of automobile production.
 When the building industry lass business feels it immediately, It lag gcd last year-partly due to high financing costs when the stock market was eating up surplus capital at high interest rates-and the ulti- mate result is well known.
 A large share of the relatively large output Of the building industry is given over to wages and many other industries are dependent upon the prosperity of building. It was not without reason that the Admins. tration seized upon the building in- dustry as the cornerstone of renew ed prosperity.
 Reports on building during the first quarter of 1880 show a steady increase Tn contracts since January 1. But compared with the same months last year, January, Tebru- ary and March were behind to the tune of 21, 12 and per cent respectively. The decreased percent age of March indicates that April may be fully as active in a building sense as the same month last year.
 The decline in total construction during the first quarter Of the year was due 10 a bad showing in resi- dential housing, all other building showing q striking gain. It happens. however, that residential building normally accounts for about ono- third Of all construction; yet in the first quarter Of 1930 1t was almost 30 per cent below that of the same quarter in 1929, g year which, too. was a bad one for residential con- struction. But this is partly due to the fact that a surplus Of residential construction was created in tdC ten-yeer period after the war.
 The increase in building opera tons to a point quite in conformity with the record at this time last year means that the foundations of pros perity are being constructed anew. Let an eight billion dollar industry begin functionins properly and there is little doubt about the general cf- feet.

Washington, April 21 R>-Con- struction contracts totaling more than s3O3,000.000 awarded during the first three months of the year were interpreted by administration officials today as refectins lthe ap- peal of President Hoover for in- creased building as a means of busi- ness stabilization.
