JOBS ASKED
BY ARCHITECTS

Enlistment Of private architects
and engineers by the Federal Gov
ernment has been urged upon
President Hoover and Governor
Roosevelt by the architectural
profession Of the State Of New
York, it is announced by the
American Institute Of Architects.
Such action, the architects as
sert, would speed the national
program of employment. and re-
lieve acute distress in these pro-
feSSions.
Copies Are Sent
Copies Of resolutions adopted
by the board Of directors of the
council of registered architects of
New York State, of which Albert
L. Brockway, of Syracuse, Is chair
man, and by the architects emer.
gency committee for the region of
New York, of which Julian Clar-
ence Levi, Of New York city, Is
chairman, have been forwarded
to the President and the gov
ernor, as well as to Secretary
Mellon, Of the Treasury Depart
ment, Col. Arthur Woods, chair
man of the Presidents emergency
committee for employment, and
Col. Frederick S. Greene, of New
York, State superintendent of
public works.
Aid Is Asked
The resolutions said in part:
"InaSmuch as architectural
and engineering plans and
Specifications are essential to
the construction of public
works, the attention Of govern
mental agencies may legitimate
~ be called to the fact that the
question Of unemployment Is
more acute in the professions
of architecture and engineer
ing than it has been in many
years
Therefore, the utilization of
the private practitioner in both
these professions by the various
governmental authorities a. as
SOciateS would be actively re-
heving a serious professional
situation, as well as furthering
the progress Of public works Of
all kinds"

CADILLAC ADDS
TOURING CAR

A seven-passenger touring car
by Fleetwood has been added to
both the Cadillac Wight and
Viz lines.
The Viz touring is on a 14O-
inch wheelbase and the Weight
on the regular 134-inch wheel
base.
These body types, in keeping
with the new lines of the Cadillac
Weight and Cadillac via, denote
unusual fleetneSs and grace.
This quality is accentuated by the
almost straight sweep of double
moulding around the body and
the snug manner in which the
burbank cloth top folds back.
Storm curtains may be quickly
fitted to make the cars virtually
weather tight and as serviceable
as a sedan for winter driving.

very large, of the concealed bolt
type, with hub caps Of cleaning
chromium plate set off by q
black ring circling the Chevrolet
emblem in the center. Wheel
finishes harmonic with the wide
variety Of body combinations.
Front tenders have been raised
slightly at the forward end to
achieve a lighter and finer ap-
pearance, and the sweep Of the
rear tenders has been made more
pronounced.
Such fine car features as assist
cords, ash receivers, arm rests
and silk roller curtains harmon.
izing with the interior trimmings
may be found in various models
in the line. All sport models have
a larger rear deck to add to the
comfort of the rumble-seat pas
sengers.
Has Tool Compartment
The coach has a compartment
for tools beneath the front floor
to avoid disturbing rear-Seat
passengers. All closed models
have the slanted non-glare wind
shield and adjuStible drivers
seat. Mohair or broadcloth trim
ming is optional with all closed
models.
The now famous 50-horsepower
vaIve-in-head six-cylinder engine,
which Chevrolet introduced in
1928, is retained in the new car
in all its fundamentals, although
it has been refined for greater
rigidity, smoothness and durabil-
ity. Ribs added to the cylinder
black achieve a 43 per cent in
crease in rigidity with only q
IL per cent increase in weight.

THE DIET

It is not hard to reduce the weight

much as a half pound to a pound a
| Gay for q time without injury. Usual
ly, it is advisable to start a reducing
| diet with a fast, using either grape
| fruit or tomato juice, as this will also
have a cleansing effect on the system
| and bring about q marked improve
ment in all of the physical functions.
| Often, too, an apparent increase OF
energy will be noticed as the body be-
comes free of its burden OF toxins and
avoirdupois. There may be marked
mental improvement with a strength
ening of the willpower, and an in
creased ability to think clearly. Ply
steal culture exercise should not be
used during the fasting period, but
may be started as soon as the diet is
begun.
The fast on grapefruit or tomato
juice proves satisfactory for many,
and may be taken for from five to
ten days, using a glassful of the juice
every two hours during the hours one
is awake. While on this diet, and for
several days afterwards, it Is good to
Use two enemas to assist in elimina-
ton. The diet following this fasting
regimen may be al follows:
Breakfast: One egg, prepared in
any manner except by frying. Two
or three slices of Melba toast.
Choice of one of the following stew
ed dried fruit: Prunes, raisins, april
cots, figs or pears, or baked apple or

McC lusky Fishermen
May Improve Lakes

McClusky, N. D., March 5.-Mem-
bers OF the 1saak Walton League of
McClusky are directing their efforts
toward stocking lakes in this area
with fish.
Since the organization of this
sportsmen's club recently, several
lakes near here have been inspected
to determine their possibilities as fu-
ture homes for certain species of the
finny tribe. The depths of Sheyenne
lake near Martin, and Florence Lake.
southeast of McClusky, have been
measured.
Sheyenne Lake is at a low water
mark at this time, being from three
and one-half to four feet deep, but
Its depth can be increased by proper
placing and construction of a dam, it
was said.
Florence Lake showed a depth of
from five to six feet, and this lake,
tCo, can be raised about two feet by
constructing a dam across a narrow
outlet at the north end. Both lakes
have sand bottoms. Later, samples
of the water will be analysed to de-
termine whether or not it is suitable
for fish.

The NorthWest's Stake in the. Oleo Bill
minneapolis JournaD

04AA
There can be no question where the stake of the north
west lies with regard to the adoption of the bill now
pending before the United States senate which would
place its dairy farmers on a basis of equality with the
oleomargarine manufacturers producing what amounts
to a synthetic butter colored with palm oil.
The Townsend bill. now before the senate, corresponds
to the Brigham bill just passed by the house, where a
fight was made to get it out of a committee after all
arrangements had apparently been made for its chloro-
forming. It provides a tax on yellow oleomargarine. The
rate is fixed at 10 cents a pound. This tax will have
the effect of compelling the sale of oeomargarine for
what it really is.
Here is a matter touching the welfare of every town
and city and every resident Of the northwest since 1t is
an effort to check the unfair competition the dairying
industry has had imposed upon it by the oleomargarine
manufacturing industry.
The oleomargarine product coored with palm oil, ad-
mitted duty free, duplicates the appearance of butter
to such a marked degree that it is possible to serve it
as butter to consumers without their knowledge, since
only analysis can establish the comparative nutrition
values.
DR.. McCollum, of Johns Hopkins university, one of
the worlds most famous nutrition experts, declares that
the consumer, to get the same amount of vitanins con-
tanned IN a pound of butter, must eat 30 pounds of ole0-
margarine. This is an apparently authentic measure
OF the consumers interest.
The dairy producers interest, as far as the northwest
is concerned, hardly needs elaboration again. Oleomar-
garine sales are cutting the Minnesota dairy producers
normal market approximately $l50,0OO a day. Every Sec
ton of this state, Of North Dakota, South Dakota, Mon
tana and Wisconsin must bear its proportionate share
OF this loss.
As the farmer suffers from this competition, so must
every interest dependent upon him suffer. There Is no
town or hamlet, or no organization in the northwest,
that can afford to allow this situation to go unprotected.
Every voice that can be heard should be raised to demand
immediate action in the senate on the Townsend bill
before it Is too late.
The northwest will pay dearly if the measure, which
means literally millions of dollars to its dairy interests.
Is lost through senate indifference.

New York World a Memory

Joseph Pulitzers New York World, which has been
merged with the Telegram, has had an ~illustrious career.
It has been a militant force for good in city and national
politics, and an intrepid defender Of the rights of the
people as its publisher saw them.
With the death Of Pulitzer and the demise of several of
the men who made the World a great newspaper, the old
fighting spirit declined. It's management became more
or less routine, with only flashes now and then of the old
fire. The genius of the elder Pulitzer was not in hts
sons, only one of whom has his flair for successful news
paper building. That one is publishing the st. Louis
Post-Dispatch, ~profitably operated and faithful to the
traditions of its founder.
Few newspapers which have lost their indemnity have
been so mourned as the World. It held an unusual and
unique place in the affections of its readers, but it could
not live on the code of ethics established by its fighting
founder; nor did a glorious past meet the weekly bills.
It had lost more than three millions before the SONS
decided that the instructions of their father not to sell
must be ignored and the terms of the will upset to
protect the estate itself.
Not so long ago the Chicago Post, a newspaper which
made a special appeal, passed into other hands. Present
day demands and competition unheard of in the days Of
the elder Pulitzer force publishers to revolutionize meth
DDS and policies. In New York, for instance. The World
once was considered rather sensational in the develop
ment of news, but today it's methods judged by present
are exceedingly conservative. The elder Pulit-
ger had a vigorous manner in news and editorial treat
ment, but then came Hearst with newer and more
touches. Following Hearst doomed the noisy
and flamboyant tabloids which found a ready sale in
an age which moves much faster than when the elder
Pulitzer directed the policies Of his newspaper. His sons
found that they had lost the old World field. Its circul-
alton declined. The clientele to which it appealed was
captured by such newspapers as the Times ard Herald
Tribune. There was nothing else for the sons to do
but merge it with the New York newspaper most ca
able of operating the World along the lines laid down by
the founder who was one of Americas greatest journalists.

A Ten Billion-D Dollar Congress
minneapolis Tribune)

The seventy first congress, adjourning today, goes on
record as a 10 billion-dollar congress. That sum rough
ly measures its total appropriations and establishes
a peace-time record
1t Is not SO long ago that the country marked with
some concern the record of its first billon-dollar con-
gress. Now, however, it has arrived at a place where
congress is not at all loathe to spend 10 times that
amount.
The session nov closing has been marked by unusual
demands on the public treasury. Nearly $70OO0O00, in
all, wes appropriated for drouth relief. Vast sums were
authorized for projects designed to alleviate the unem-
ployment situation. The veterans relief loan bill added
tremendously to the federal governments fiscal worries.
AS a result, increased taxes are foreshadowed.
The tendency to raid the federal treasury on the
slightest provocation and to make the federal govern
ment foot the bill for everything from highways to public
health steadily increases. That tendency, it goes with
out saying, must inevitably be submitted to the acid
test Of pay day.

Today Is the
Anniversary OF
CORREGGIO'S BIRTH

On March S, 1894, Antonio Allegri
Correggio, great Italian painter, was
born at Correggio, a small town near
Modena, from which the painter re-
ceived his name.
He was the first among the mod
erns who displayed that grace, soft
ness Of effect and that combined ex-
cellence Of design, color taste and eX-
preston in which he is still unsur-
passed. His canvaseS are peculiarly
impressive because of his wonderful
treatment of light and shade, of
which he was the greatest master
among Italians.
Almost before he had seen the
great masters, he became a master
in style all his own. He was the
founder of what is called by some the
Parma school of painting.
His best works are priced as highly
as those of the greatest masters and
he is ranked with Michelangelo,
Leonardo Ga Vinci, Raphael and IT.
tian among the five most eminent
painters OF Italy. His Holy Night"
now in the Dresden Museum, is class
ed among the worlds IL greatest pic
lures.
