Labor and Materials Cheap.
Fright now labor and business ma
terials are unusually cheap. Repairs
and remodeling that used to cost 81, 1000
can be done for about $3.50. This is q
good time to build, as well as repair, for
every dollar spent in building gives the
safest investment that can be made.
Because Of present low prices 1t is GER
tain that every dollar so invested will
be worth a dollar and half in a year
or two.

What Price Solon?
(New York Herald-Tribune)


 One of North Carona's Representatives MT Charles L. Abernathy, who warmly opposes all talk of Congressional salary cuts rashly and illogically argues that because his home community paid him legal fees amounting to $20,000 per annum his worth to the nation Congressman cannot be less than $0,000. This is illogical because it would be very easy to conceive of a man worth a mill lion a year-to Hollywood for instance-who would be worth much less than nothing to Congress that his minus value could be only technically expressed. It is rash because the feeling has been sweeping over the American people at least two or three times a year, ever since the Continental Congress drove General Washington to tears of vexation that the great show on Capitol Hill is inordinarily expensive burlesque upon democra- cy and because this is of those times.
 Every intelligent American knows that the leg slatve business of the nation could be far more efficiently transacted by twentieth of the mem- bership of the two houses at fraction of the cost if the members were selected for their ex pert knowledge of various national problems. The major constitutional function of the two leg isative bodies and of other groups of Federal gov- ernment is however, to work as automatic brakes upon tendencies toward autocracy, obligarchy bu- reaucracy demagogery in each or all of the others. But when such spokesman as MT. Abernathy reminds the American people of the price they pay, in salaries, office expenses, mile age, frankage, government literature and seeds for the pettfoggery and recaltrance that characterzes Congress,s discharge of its functions he is also reminding them that brakes the legislative bodies have come to be many times more ponder ous unwieldy and expensive pieces of machinery that the authors of the Constitution could possibly have foreseen.
 When MT Abernathy talks, in such times as these-and with Congress in the head lines-of the specific worth of a Congressman he drives the public to pad, pencil and simple arithmetic; and the legislative Cassius who thinks too much is far less dangerous to his colleagues than the one who starts the people reasoning.

End Lame Ducks"
Olympic Olympian)

The legislatures of four states have already rat- fled the lame duck amendment to the Consttu- tion which would advance the inauguration of pres- dents from March to January and would do away with the archaic short sessions of discredited con- gresses
 This speedy response indicates that the amend nent will not be long in getting the necessary rat fication by three -fourths of the states. That is quite as it should be-
 Once ratified, the amendment will make the gov err,,lent at Washington much responsive to the will of the people, and will end a great deal of lost motion in Uncle Sam's federal machinery. May the remaining 32 notifications come through as speedily as the first four did!

Business Waits on Elections.
Cincinnati Enquirer)


 It is an unfortunate but apparently infallble rule of democracy that people insist on the right to choose their public officials and then mistrust their own judgment Just now Germany, France and the United States are engaged in general election cam paigns Germany is nearly finished, the outcome certain France will vote in another month or six weeks The United States has long and turbulent road to follow before new President and Congress are determined upon.
 The popular decisions to be made in these three major nations have tremendous implication for the economic future of the world. France and America are the only large countries in a strong financial position Germany is the great question mark in the capitastic world. Great Britain, SIX months after a general election and Tory landslide, has set her course for an indefinite future-the only important industrial nation with no popular decision to reach this year. .
 Waiting has become the universal pastlme ln all these countreswaitng for business to turn the cor ner waiting for revolution, waiting for sign rom Heaven or just waiting for something to happen" " This tendency bad enough already In US stutlylng influence on trade is becoming worse as the elections draw nearer It appears that people as whole have little confidence in the ability of the people AS a whole-in their own abilty-to choose thelr leaders at the polls.
 The happy outcome which now IS certain Ill Ger many on April 10 is at least index of what may Inc exnected from the other elections Of 1852 Con servatism and sanity dominated in the Reich, al though extreme radicalism and reckless natlonalsm gained a little It is not unlikely that Ill France and the United States the popular response VIII De much the same If this is true, there surely Is no reason for the hesitant waiting that has supplanteo the confidence and action needed in business

Of, if David could only know
 half how happy she was, sh, thought as she opened the door returning from having tea witt David.
 Gar had telephoned earlier ir the day that he would be late tonight There was some troublt with the lighting at the Little theatre. She mustn't wait dinner for him.
 She wouldn't cook anything for herself. When Gar came shed make a mushroom omelet.
 And as she stitched on a hand kerchief she was making fer her fathers Christmas box she thought of David and the pleasantness of her encounter with him. He'd .ried very hard to be disagreeable. Almost as if he wasn't glad things had strengthened out with her and Gar But it was silly to think he really felt that way, he'd said so often that he wanted her to be happy, he'd only seemed half hearted because he was low in spirits, discouraged.
 '>Im glad I talked straight from the shoulder to him." Kitty mus ed. And I'll do it every chance I gesl" Her own rosy security made her the more compassionate for David. Shed seen him cften She'd invite David and Dorcas up to the apartment for supper some night.
 Of course David was too proud to ask Dorcas to marry him. He had said Doicas wouldn't com promise. That's all he knew about women-But at this point in her thoughts Kitty felt @ sharp prick If memory. That day out in the title home, David had said to her: The most you can do is com promise and then you won't be anywhere" That was David'S feel ngs, now, that she'd compromis- 1 sd, with her self respect, perhaps le thought, or with her ambi- ions.

enings after Kitty and Gar took possession of the place. Marge and Diana and Isobel Peters and Red and Hubby and Sewall Buck, and little later, Paul Somerset.
 They'd been riotously gay. Red had brought 8 Satchel filled with the mahings for cocktails and he and Gar had mixed them, shaker after shaker, until Kitty's neat kitchen was cluttered with peelings and bottle tops and empty bottles. Kitty had assembled sandwiches and cakes and olives and coffee At half-past one the operator at the desk in the lobby called to say that a complaint had come in about ths noise and everybody Tad shrieked at t1lat--everyone ex- ,cept Kitty. The party was a suc- cess! They went at three o'clock leaving the living room in a sorry mess of empty glasses and plates and cigarette stumps with a pail of cigarette smoke hanging over everything.
 Now that's the kind Of even ing I like-I hope the crowd sort of makes our place a headquar- ters," Gar had declared with inn mense satisfaction.
 'T don't like Paul Somerset, Gar"
 "Oh, he's all right for his kind. Marge is just having little fun live talked it over with her"
 Cars friends had seemed more friendly. Or, perhaps, Kitty had thought as She fused in the kitch- en over the refreshments, it was that she felt different toward them now, in her role as hostess. Tub by had seized a chance to squeeze her hand and ask her if he wasn't | MT. Fixit? You can count on me, Kit. I'm not going to breathe a word about it." She wished she | could tell him that she wasn't | ashamed of working alt Stratton's | but there had been no time, then Hubby thought of it as Gar did. |
 She's hated having Paul Som erset come, she'd caught herself | watching him with Margery Cros- by, and thinking of Carol. Was 1 he seeing Carol now? Or had | their quarrel at the Hoffman that | day ended their acquaintance?
 It had taken her the greater part of next day to restore order 10 their dolls house. But she had | worked cheerfully. Gar had liked his evening.
 Pleasing Gar gave glanor to ler every thought, every task.
 Her pride in Gar, her belief hat he could do anything, was wholly restored. She shared his when he talked about lis work. His father had trans erred to his office one Jonathan Drew who, in one capacity or an- ,ther, had served Walton and Win CTS for fifteen years. Gar called inn Old John. Gar said he was $ Faithful as an old shepard dog. Ie had laughed at Kitty's dis nay one morning when they both Iverslept. "Old John can talk to hat man who was coming in at en o'clock. What have I got him or?" And she had lost her alarm n a little rush of pride that Gar lad important conferences and Old ohm under him to take care of hem until he had got around.
 Gar was the lover of those irst weeks of their marriage. She cit no jealousy when the Players demanded his time. F'rqueently Ie telephoned that he'd be late or dinner, he had to see Decker r someone else, sometimes Mar cry Crosby. Now and then omrnittee met in the evening tut she had not felt left out, as he had at his mothers home; here was always his homecoming, moment apart from all others n the ectasy of closeneSs.
