expense of the toiling masses. He
will call for a further slash in the
wages of the lower paid federal en-
ployees, recommending wage cuts
amounting to "at least $55o,000 900"
and a general organization of gov

posals will be under the pretext Of

which aims at further depressing the
standards of the workers, denial of
unemployment relief and abolition

deceive the unemployed millions with
promises of future work. He is also

He is expected to insist on payment
of the December instruments and to
call on Congress to create a conf
mission TO study the war debt ques-
ton separately with each debtor

Hoover's decision to deal with the

The National Farm Relief Confer
ence opens here tomorrow. Already
several hundred farmer delegates,
elected at mass meetings in neigh
borhoods. others elected from the
lower units Of farmers organizations
whose leaders oppose the conference,
others sent by the United Farmers
League, farmers mass organization
that officially and whole heartedly
supports the call 10 conference, are
in Washington.
A good many Of them came in with
the National Hunger Marchers, from
points all over the country, and have
been, since Sunday night, interned
with them and held prisoners in the
camp on the outskirts Of the city.
Sixty others, who came together,
wearing their blue cotton overalls,
put up at tourist camps around the
city.
Others are still on the way.
The conference will be four days
long, Dec. to Dec. 10.
Indications are that 1t will draw
up demands on congress for a mora
torium on farm debts and taxes, no
seizure of farm lands through fore
closures or tax sales, and for real
relief to the poor farmers.
Practically all the delegates now
here and on the way are instructed
to stand for this, as a minimum pro-
gram, in the conference opening to-
morrow.

FactOry-Built Homes

Any real estate man can tell YOU
that there is surplus of housing
these days. So can any banker or
any mortgage company But when YOU
look into the situation you will find
that the surplus is strictly surplus
OF homes for the middle and upper
classes. For the man who has to keep
e family on $50 week or less there is,
and for years has been, an acute
shortage.
Consequently the news that large
New York interests are preparing to
market "Ford-ized' homes, fabricated
in the factory. erected in three or four
days on the purchasers lot and pur-
chasable on the installment plan. is
exceedingly interesting. This would
make ultra-modern homes available
for some such price as $4,000 or So. 500.
The man who now has to live in what
economists call the "blighted areas
would gain immeasurably-and so. in
the long run, would the community

A COLD DRAFT BLOWS THROUGH
THE UAW HAW CORNER

Seven Yale students have been used
as experimental material by Drs.
Winslow and Greenburg 1--WE are not
going to diyulge the identity of the
students, because We don't want to
give their mamas or papas any anXi-
ety.. The investigators exposed the
students to drafts and chilling, in 26
experiments
The seven students are still alive
and not much the worse for their ter
rible experiences.
They were exposed to alternate high
and low temperatures, and the inves-
tigators observed the effects on
pulse, respiration, blood pressure. sur
face temperature and temperature of
the lining of nose and throat. From
these experiments the investigators
concluded that chilling of the body
surface produces contraction or
blanching of the mucus membrane
lining nose and throat, which is ac-
companied with dryness or decrease in
the normal mucus secretion,
That is rather the opposite Of the
effect popularly ascribed to exposure
to chilling. However. a little thing
like that doesn't detain these "scien-
lists" long. They make no bones at
all of citing the blanching effect of
chilling as lowering the resistance"
of the mucus membrane. If nobody
knows what resistance" is, that's no
concern Of the scientific gentlemen
they wash their hands of that.
Pursuing the experiments on the
seven students Drs. Winslow and
Greenburg observed that chilling the
feet or the head had similar effects.
However, they reluctantly report, only
one of the seven subjects developed
cold during the course of the ex-
periments. Whatever that may mean.

Thus. conclude the savants, while
drafts apparently may predispose one
to colds. chilling of the feet or other
part of the body as a whole has no
demonstrable influence on respirat atory
infections.
This will come as a shock to a lot
OF old women in the profession.
But it won't make bit of differ

the laity very much, not as Drs. Win

We can defer our plan to turn over

are heroes who are willing to get their

scientists observe the effects, I sup
pose the dear old "cold" delusion will
survive.
