STAGE IS ALL SET FOR ANNUAL NEW YEARS
 MASK BALL TONIGHT

It may be tipping off what to-
 nights throng at the New Years Eve Mask Ball will be greeted with but, regardless of consequences, here's the dirt"
 Under a canopy of colored fes- toonS long strings of softened elec- tric lights will give forth new idea in illumination design and the orchestration platform will be in the middle of the large floor. Oh yes, the punch! Yes! Yes! This potent soft-liquor, ladies and those who come with you, will be served up one flight of four steps to the stage which is not set with cus- pidors, brass rail, towels, sawdust and girls, but most handsome corps of bartenders.
 But, and that's the rub" the punch will lack that kick" which levels all men, so to speak. The punch will be mild, the committee asserts, for the Volunteer Fire De- partment anticipates making this dance affair tonight the finest and most enjoyable of the organiza- tion's entire career. Rigid order will be maintained and woe onto any rowdies; woe onto them! whoa!
 Many and varied will be the costumes, judging from the inter est and secrecy manifest during the last few weeks. Tn conclusion the department cordially urges all Seward to join them tonight in bidding 1881 adios, and to fittingly welcome the arrival of another New Year; to enjoy with them night Of frolic.
 Prizes galore!

 Paris, Dec 8-(UP)-The end of "hard times" next summer and defeat of President Hoover next November were predicted to-day for the United Press by Madame Fraya, French seer.
 She foretold year ago the slump of sterling, death of Joffre, war in Manchuria, overthrow Of Alfonso and rise to power of Pierre Laval.
 By midsummer, Madame Fraya predicted, America will be smiling again and happy days will be pack on Wall street"
 "The United States will remain in an economic slump until sum mer but before the end of the year America will again be leading the world toward riches and prosper ity," she said.
 The great catastrophies of 1882 will not be caused by wars but by waters, Madame Fraya said. She predicted catastrophies at sea, floods and tidal waves but no wars or revolutions.
 She saw the disappearance of Briand from the political horizon by death or retirement.
 we are still under the disas- trous influence of Saturn--that acc counts for our misfortunes-and this will continue through several months of 1892 but constantly de minishing. Water will be respon.- sible for the worlds cataclysms of 1892. ,
 "The American elections will bring a complete change of politics. Hoover will not be reelected. Tn South America there will be much political agitation, a change of gov ernment in Argentine but no more revolutions.

Will Defeat Hoover
 And Hard Times In
 1882 Is Prediction
Madame Fraya, the French Seer Has Been FOretelling All Big Events for Very Many Years and With Amazing Truthfulness

"In Europe no thrones will tot ter, no dictators will quit their power, no revolutions will over throw established governmental, no rulers will die at an assassin's hands during 1882. It will be the quietest year, politically, for some time.
 "The May elections in France will see slight swing to the right center. Pierre Laval will ride through many political storms and be in power for the elections. l see the disappearance by death or retreat of a great French peace- maker. I see new men in politics, particularly an active young man who will rise to great rank. France need fear no revolution; her eco- homie troubles will be over in 8 few months. Unemployment will end before summer.
 Spain will be comparatively quiet. The republican regime will have it's difficulties but there will be no restoration of the monarchy. Alfonso has lost his throne and will never find 1t again."
 Madame Fraya studied the lines in the royal palm of Alfonso and told him frankly that he must find other work.
 Alfonso has confidence in the French woman despite the fact that her messages to him are al- ways gloomy, for she was the first to warn him of his fate when he visited her while passing through Paris several years ago. She pre- dicted a bloodless revolution at that time.
 Recently, Alfonso returned at the insistence of friends. His fu- ture left no doubt in the mind of Madame Frraya who told him in- stantly that there was no hope of a restoration.

remember before the depression how we boosted
that our economic system the most efficient and
perfect in the world?
Remember how we used to sheer at the poor fool
Bolshevis who could destroy. but lacked the brains
to plan system that would produce providing steady
jobs and living for its peopleP
Remember how Herbert Hoover settled the whole
question ten years ago by predicting the imminent
collapse of the inefficient Communist system and the
permanent prosperity Of the American system
Remember that when the world depression came
.ssia started to go up and we started to go down,
ntil today Russia is giving jobs to Americans who
can not find work at home?
These embarrassing memories produce conflicting
attitudes in Americans. One group denies the fact
which it lacks courage to face.
Another group concludes that Communism has
gone over the top and that capitalism is done for We
are inclined to think that such response oversim-
plihes the facts
The facts are that pure Communism and pure
capitalism do not exist. Russian Communism in
practice largely is modified by capitalist forms and
methods And European capitalism--even American
capitalism, to some degrees being modified rapidly
by socialstic forms and methods
That system which is most efficient in d social
sense is apt to survive. Whether it will be COM
rnunized capitalism or a capitalized Communism
eventually may turn out to be only onerence OF
words Anyway, the future will take care of that,
regardless of preferences
Meanwhile, there is very real and very prac-
teal issue It has been stated many times by us and
by Others 1t just has been restated with vigor by
Nicholas Murray Butler in Paris address on the
crisis in capitalist countries:
Let me call your attention to the fact that the
characteristic feature of the experiment in Russia, to
my mind is not that it is Communstic, but that it is
being carried on according to plan in the face of
planless opposition
A with plan, however much We may dis
like it. has vast advantage over group sauntering
down the road complaining OF the economic weather
and wondering when the rain is going to stop"
When are the Hoover administration and the
National Chamber of Commerce going to get five
year plan to stabilize production and employment
at a high level in America?
Don't they know that planless system can not
long compete with planned system2

The President Comes

A visit from the President of the United
States is always an event. Today the COM
ING of President Hoover is more than that.
It is an occasion.
To the glory of our citizenship be it said
that our people have the highest regard and
respect for the presidency. 1t is the greatest
Office on earth because it derives its power
from the greatest of all forces-from human
beings who select their own leader. Having
selected that leader our people are ever ready.
to pay honor and tribute to the Office and the
man.
Today the unfurled flags of welcome
are more than mere gesture. They are an
invitation as well. These flags and welcom-
ing throngs are an expression of hope that
today may make history for this land and
that before he leaves this city, there may be
given to the country very definite message
of policy and plan by which some of the pres
ert unfortunate economic conditions may be
dispeled.
In selecting Indianapolis as the platform
from which to make an important announce
ment that will put new hope in the hearts
of men and point path for the future, the
President does we'll. For this city is the
most American of all our centers, more per-
fectly representative of the traditions. the
aspirations, the hopes of the whole land.
It's people come largely from the strain of
the pioneer, have longest held to the ideals
upon which this land is founded.
The people today are looking for leader
ship and for real message. They are look
ing for a way. They are seeking light. They
want definite plans and a definite program
that will solve problems that are more than
perplexing.
For that reason, this city is glad to vel
come the President, to give to him gen
erous and eager hearing, to listen with open
minds to his word Of hope and counsel and
direction And in honoring the President,
the city aonors itself.
