president Of the Republican Women's 8
League Of Pennsylvania.
Mrs. Frank w. Monden, president Of
the league, who presided at her flrst
large affair since assuming her ONCE,
did it in a businesslike but graceful
manner, her cultured voice reaching
the more than 800 women seated In
the room.
She read a letter of welcome and
commendation from the President,
which was received warmly, and all
curing the program Mrs. Mondell
showed her aptitude for her position.
However there was an amusing moment
when Mrs. Mondell halted in reading
the autograph letter and remarked that
1t was difficult to read. But that Is
the case with most autograph letters
Of the great.
Her introduction of Mrs. Hoover was
brief, but graceful, and Mrs. Hoover
made an address of few words, but to
the point. Justin LaWrie, tenor, gave
group Of songs, accompanied by Wini-
fred Mccall Lawrie Mr.. Wilbur, Sec
retary OF the Department of Interior,
made the leading address, adapting 1t
TO the women's viewpoint in politics.
He stressed President Hoover as the
great humanitarian, and told the
women that they must not be set apart
In politics, and spoke of her powerful
influence, and said the time had gone
by when the few could run the Govern
ment.
Mrs. Gam proved herself a forceful
and graceful speaker, and Mrs. Hert
was received with applause Mrs. Ellis
Yost spoke, and while Mrs. Virginia
White Speel was on the program, she
was prevented from attending the
luncheon by illness.
Mrs. Hoover arrived promptly, ac-
companied by her house guest, Mrs.
William S. Sims and secret service
man OF the White House staff. There
was no effort at a reception of all the
guests preceding the luncheon, but
many fingered to be received by Mrs
Hoover following the program. She
wore not the Spring outfit that might
have been expected, but a velvet gown
and hat quite in keeping with the
temperature without and showing her
independence of character. To relieve
the somber tone of the black dress ana
hat, she carried a cluster of yellow jon
quilS. Mrs. Gam also wore a black
costume, but of satin, and Mrs. Mon
delpS costume of black with little
white was particularly becoming and
effective.

regard for precedent were, besides Mrs

Following several years of drastic
price reduction, all leading tire manu-
facturers with the exception of Fire
stone have joined in advancing tire
prices from IL per cent to Is per cent,
effective June 81. Whereas levels had
reached the lowest point in history and
eliminated profitable operations for
most companies, the new increase
primarily has been designed to meet
the excise taxes to become operative
on that date. and to provide small
margin for the companies. A stimula-
ton in production since enactment of
the tax bill will probably be sharply
curtailed later in the season until these
stocks can be moved into consuming
channels. No announcement of similar
action has been forthcoming from the
leading mail order concerns. although
Sears, Roebuck officials are reported to
have stated that tire and tube prices as
announced in the company's Midsum-
mer flyer catalogue will hold until the

NEW YORK, June l8.-SugaT pro-
ducers are counting on the durability
of the American sweet tooth" to sus-
tain a recent rally in sugar which has
carried prices up nearly so per cent
since June l, the sharpest for any COM
modify in long time.
With production, still outrunning con-
sumption. there Is well defined move
ment developing to cut down paintings.
In Cuba, particularly. this movement
appears to be gaining force. Advices
from the sugar island state that, with
government appreciation. Cuban pro-
ducerS may form a pool which would
withdraw 100000 long tons of raw sugar
from the market
Latest available estimates indicate
that the American public is still con-
suming around 100 pounds of sugar per
capita each year. In 1910. the American
used on an average of 1877 pounds of
sugar year; in l920-the year of rec
ord high sugar prices-9ll pounds and
in 1880, l04 pounds. His biggest sugar.
eating year was in 1929. when he ate
an average of ll9 pounds of sugar
year.
