IMPORTANT PROBLEM
PUT UP TO ROOSEVELT
Decision of Railroad Rate Demand
May Affect His Career.

WASHINGTON, July 81. - An
other economic problem involving
the depression and his presidential
fortunes was placed before Cover
nor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New
York today, when the National
League of Commission Merchants
urged him to make formal protest
to the interstate commerce COM
mission against granting the rail-
roads demand for increased rates
on fresh fruits and vegetables.
Besides affecting national Ship
perS as we'll as growers and con-
sumers in New York, the proposal
interests the same groups through
out the country. The commission
men have waged a bitter fight
against many of President Hoover's
farm board policies, and their &C
ton in turning to Roosevelt for re-
enforcement gives political signif-
canoe to whatever move he may
make.
1t places Roosevelt in the position
of opposing either the large rail-
road interests or the producers and
consumers.

These contrasting pictures
are revealed by a check Of rec
ords at city hall, following an

an innate knowledge of what kinds Of
furniture ought to be used tcgether-
what rugs, what draperies and what
accessories. Yet when it comes to taste
in dressing Mrs. Smith just doesn't
seem to be there at all Her hat never
seems to be on speaking terms with her
scarf, and her wrap is quaTeling with
if not actually swearing at the dress
over which it is worn.
And so We who know Mrs. Smith
and Mrs. Jones might naturally con-
clude that the sort Of taste needed to
furnish ones house we'll has no bearing
whatever on the taste needed to dress
we'll and that well dressed women
shouldn't be expected to have very
attractively furnished houses.
Really there are hardly sufficient
grounds for such conclusion. and il
we'll dressed women occasionally turn
out to be poor interior decorators it Is
not because they lack the taste or be-
cause the taste that is needed for
furnishing a house and choosing the
right sort of clothes is very different,
but rather that they consider dress
much more worth while than furnish
ings. So with the badly dressed
women whose houses are charming
They really could dress we'll If they
wanted to, but for some reason or other
this doesn't seem particularly impor-
tant.
Choosing the right furnishings for
your house really is very much like
choosing the various accessories of your
costume-getting just the right gloves,
shoes, stockings, necklace. scarf, etc, to
g with dress or suit or wrap. Only
with furnishing room the problem
is bit more difficult, because unless
we have large funds at OR disposal we
have to make use OF many things that
We have en- hand. We cannot scrap a
chair inst We bought in a misguided
moment 10 years ago as readily as we
car discard a pair OF stockings that
we bought last week.
Not one woman IN hundred--rossi-
bly, not one woman in 50o-can furnish
her rooms as she would ike to. She
Simply has to make the best CT rather
awkward situation.

ers and they love more than other
women to have home. They set out
to get home; they accept the man as
a necessary condition; they are uncom-
Portable ever after.
Then there are the girls who think
that life is successful after their friends
say. She's married She's got a fine
husband and good home" I don't
who hasn't a man is a failure. But
If its a home you want, then you may
have struggle ahead of you before
you get man who will supply 1t. and
yet not be 50 annoying to you that
you can't marry him.
If it's the approval Of your friends
you're trying to get, it won't be so easy
to capture a man that you can show
off. But II you really want a husband,
some one to love and to love you, some
one for company, to talk to and listen
to, some one you want around, then
you'll get him. Nothing can stop you.
II you like the company Of men, if
you'd rather have the man then the
furniture, then anything you do will
get you husband.
Think how often you've said, What
did he see in her?" Well, what he saw
was girl who liked being with men,
who liked mems ways. He saw a girl
who liked being with him, who liked
his company, who'd rather have him
than any furniture or silver. Under
stand-who liked being with him-n-t
just being seen with him.

him
There is another fellow who makes
me lust as nervous" said Popup. Il
saw him over in Prairie-dog Town the
Other day"
who is he?" demanded Grubby
quickly.
They called him Blackfoot the Fer
ret" replied Popup.
Don't tell me that that fellow is
around also!" exclaimed Grubby. LAS
long as there are plenty of Prairie dogs
he isn't likely to bother us Gophers
much, All the same I don't like to
hear that he is anywhere near. Well
1 must fill my pockets and get back
UNDERGROUND"
Rather clumsily he made his way to
some fairly tall plants growing near
and cut one They he began cutting
this into short pieces and these he
stuffed into his pockets with his paws
and did it so fast that it was difficult
to see how he did it. His pockets be-
gan to swell out He worked fast, and
presently the sides Of his head we're
swollen out so that he certainly was
funny looking little fellow When he
could stuff no more in he turned, walk
ing with his big claws turned under
and made his way back to his hole in
the middle of the little mound of earth
and disappeared
The two young Prairie dogs chuckled.
Grubby had been funny sight and
no mistake. Those are handy pockets
he has. 1 wouldn't mind a pair like
that myself" declared Peekaboo
What for?" asked Popup. I'VE don't
need to store away food, for we can
go out and eat our fill every day. That
fellow wouldn't have chance if he
was surprised by an enemy even few
feet from his hole. So he needs to take
his food inside where he can eat 1t in
safety. 1 wonder what else he eats.
Let's go peep down his hole"
But when they looked for the hole
there was none. 1t had been neatly
closed from the inside. There was moth
ing to show that there ever had been a
hole in the middle of the little mound.
