 This figure, equal to the estina- ted losses suffered by all neutrals during the World War. marks an increase of more than $250,g0O,000 over the 1929 outlay.
 It was arrived at in a survey be- gun last July. by the committee on recent economic changes of the presidents conference on unem ploment, in appraising public con- struction as factor in business stability.
 Including expenditures for roads and bridges constructed by federal. state, municipal and local govern ments, it was estimated that high way construction is likely to show the largest increase among the many projects pushed forward to halt depression, when final records for the year are avaiab ble
 The main sources of the state and local highway and bridge work were found 10 lie in gasoline taxes and in motor vehicle fees.

Among the art books in the H- brary's collection is, George Bel lows: His Autographs" with an in troduction by Thomas Beer. To fully appreciate the genius of George Bel. lows one must know his lithograp phs. Against the best advice of his friends and at a time when lithography has been superseded by etching. he brought to this older medium his remarkable energy and scorching honesty, and created in it a series of prints that remain tell ing comments on the whole close packed history of the first quarter Of the twentieth century. He notes the drama in a college hazing, a country prayer meeting. and the lynching of Negro. He is immensely entertain ed by the dalliance of lovers, the reducing exercises of stout woman and the heroics of Billy Sunday.
 It vas inevitable that, that re- spending 10 war-inflamed ideas, his pencil wrought graphically the dread results of its ravages. This volume is an authoritative and com plete index of Bellows's Autographs. carefully edited by Mrs. Bellows with the collaboration of Robert Henri and Eugene Speicher and pref aced by d brilliant piece of critical biographical writing by Thomas Beer.

JHI DEAN AND THE
 LEGISLATURE,

Alarm is being felt Tn certain circles because Governor-eIec Cross has moro than So appointments to make during the next two years; and, by heck. he may try to appoint somebody the Republicanized Legis- lature doesn't like. So it is being suggested 10 the Dean mildly and persuasively, will he please exert restraint; will he please step on the brake instead Of on the ac- celcrator. The boys in the organlza- ton 10 not want partisan fight, understand; what they want is col laboration-on the part of the Dean.
 Which is enough 10 make donkey laugh.
 During the campaign Dean Cross remarked on a few occasions that helping 10 operate university and having hand in educational finances made one appreciate eff cient methods Of control. He could have well added that he would not require, when elected governor, too many suggestions from those who regarded him as "only a professor" during the election campaign.
 Let the Dean sail right in and run his own show. II the Legislature refuses 10 play ball with him, let him take his case to the people, n statements bristling with hard facts and fiery rhetoric, like Al Smith did with his opposition Legislature in New York.
 There are ways for a Governor 10 make Legislature sick at heart.
 After the Dean is through with the Legislature it will be the Legis- lature Who will need a doctor, not the Dean.

He himself IS fanatically dry, and being in place of power in the Republican party, he seeks to swing 1t into being national prohibition party-with the aid of such vets on election day who habitually vote Republican regardless Of such an issue. Senator Tess realizes fully that the success Of the Republican, dry combination in the past has been due 10 considerable extent upon the adhesion of Republican vets who did not vote Democratic. as was the case in 1928. Being a good politician. he would continue the alliance for the benefit of his party.
 But new times. new leaders. Sena- tor Fess of the old school He is in a class with Senator Watson of h. diana. an Old Guard leader who is rapidly slipping New Hands are ob- taining control; and among these is Senator elect Dwight ". Morrow Of New Jersey. who has discarded the party fetich of prohibition.
 The Republicans face a serious split over the dry question; they are sowing what has been reaped. The recent voting in Massa chusetts, New York and Illinois, not 10 mention the voting in Indiana and Ohio-all important northern states needed by the Republicans in presidential campaign - has indicated the change in sentiment that is taking place.
 Prohibition, it has been said, has "bedeviled" politics ever since the Amendment and the Nolstead Act became operative, The bedeviling process continues and gains mo- mentum every year. Hope ten years ago that the mere beginning Of the dry regime would automatically end discussion and that the fruits Of the law would become so self evident that everyone would be willing 10 let well enough alone has faded. Senator Fess, wearing political binders, evidently thinks the situ- alton can be cured with statements He acts as if he enjoys making them. Yet he cannot change the in eyitablc. His main accomplishment is to intensity the growing opposi- ton to prohibition as VIC have it and Of which hc so consistently complains.
