 soundness of the Presidents monetary pro-
 gram. For the first time in his distinguished
 the Governor has neglected his own
 sound advice always. to Hook at the record
 The Committee charged that the United states has suffered the collapse of its banking system through sticking to the good old fashioned gold standard" adding:
 These the facts, not "baloney" It
 takes insight into financial mechanism and
 careful study to understand these problems
 .. Rebuilding a really sound money and
 a proper medium of exchange is too com
 plex to be dismissed with the epithet
 "baloney." Blindly returning to the old gold
 standard is not the solution Insight and
 constructive statesmanship required
 The Committees position seems to be the one taken by most of the country While the first reaction to MT. Smiths attack was that 1t was the signal for a wide-open split in the ranks of the Democratic party with him leading to antl-Roose- welt clements and the old line conservatives against the pro-Roosevet and liberals, that has appar- ently not developed. Public support of the Presi- dent proved too strong and widespread for rlft in the party to be risked by a few who mlght desire to cause the President discomfort

BUILD A TREATY NAVY.

Secretary of Navy Swanson's plea for an orderly naval building program which will give the onteo States the full strength permitted under the London Naval Pact is based on a comprehensive unoer- standing of all the major factors in the nternatloha situation It is not the argument of jingoist or militarist He is neither, For many years prior to his appointment to his present Cabinet post by President Roosevelt he a member of the senate Naval Affairs Committee and one Of the most thorough students of Naval questions in congress Originally a subscriber to the theory that thls country should lead the world to disarmament by actual example he has been forced to the con- clusion that the results to date have been all negative While America has neglected deloerateiy to build a Treaty Navy, in the hope that other powers would follow her lead the other slgnatorles to the treaty have kept building to the limit allowed.
 The Geneva Disarmament Conference, from which so much was hoped last month, failed due to Ger manys withdrawal from the gathering and her notice of withdrawal from the League of Nations. It was slated to have resumed it's meetings agaiii this month but postponement has been taken untli after January 1, and little hope for concrete achievements is held out

 The United States cannot ignore these facts Secretary Swanson, it is evident, has not been unmindful of them in his annual report to the President It seems plain that if the rest of the world will not disarm, then this country will have to arm itself at least to the point where it per- fectly able to care for national interests and na- tional defense.

 The statement follows in part

that was the distortion caused by
the angle at which the picture
struck the screen due to the .act
that the protector was up under the
roof
The average person might think
it impossible for the motion picture
screen to introduce any large
amount of distortion without the
audience being aware of that fact.
However Tuttle reported that
tests we're made, and the fact dis
covered that large amount of dis
tortion could be introduced without
the audience being in the least con-
scious of any unpleasant or unreal
istic effect
Other engineers commented on
the fact that the present vogue for
curves began after the depression

scripps Howard Science Editor

The fact that in the average mo-
ton picture theater the projection
booth is located up under the roof
at the back Of the balcony may &C
count for the vogue of the boylsh
figure among women. That is the
opinion Of Clifton M Tuttle, mem
Der Of the staff OF the Eastman Ko-
dak Company's research laborato-

Until recently. when fashion ex-
perts say curves began to regain
thair popularity most women
seemed intent on losing weight and
the chief topic Of conversation at
bridge tables was diet-the Holly
wood diet, the pineapple juice diet,
the milk diet, etc
SOciologists and psychologists
have blamed the fad on everything
they could think Of including the
World war. But Tuttle charges it
against the movies
His reasoning is as follows Movie
stars became exceedingly popular
Many girls wanted to look like their
favorite movie stars. The movie
stars looked exceedingly thin. Con-
sequently, the girls took to dieting
But there Is something the girls
didn't know: The movie stars all
looked thinner on the screen than
they really were The reason for
