This is because bank de-
posits, not currency, constitute the bulk
of the money. Bank deposits at the
calling of the bank holiday were about

including currency. about $6,700. .000,-
900. This is total of S46, ZOO, 900, 900.
If this sum were increased beyond
the Nations economic needs or in
creased artificially, there would be in

In the present situation currency
expansion is planned only to the extent
necessary to satisfy the demands OF
bank depositors Thus, if, on the re-
opening of the banks, the people with
drew $4,000, 100000, money in circu-
lation would increase to S8,700, 900, 900.
but this same $4,000, 100000 would be
withdrawn from bark deposits and the
total of all money-bank deposits and
money in circulation-would be the
same.
Currency expansion might be inf1a--

it and distributed it to the public.
This would be net addition to the
money supply.

Glass That Bends; Both
Bullet and Stone Proof

Unbreakable glass II said to have
been invented 1900 years ago. An
artist appeared before Tiberius with
a glass cup which he dashed on the
ground. It was not broken but merely
dented like a piece of metal. Then he
hammered the cup back into shape
with mallet. Tiberius asked II any
body else knew the secret, and when
the inventor answered NO." had him
beheaded lest this wonderful glass
should depreciate the value Of goldl
Now the secret which died with its
discoverer so long ago has been again
revealed In Germany, where glass mas
been produced which neither splinters
nor breaks. To test 1t three adults
used long sheet of 0-50th of an inch
thickness as see-saw, and the glass
Is reported to have shown an elasticity
similar to that Of highly-flexible steel.
As further test, heavy steel ball
was dropped from height Of 10 feet
on the glass without leaving any i'm
preston.
Railway authorities and the motor
car trade are keenly interested In this
glass, and It may be that the police
will not be Indifferent to It, a. its gen.
eral use for shop windows would tend
to reduce. II not abolish, the smash
and-grab" menace.-Tt-Bits.

a good puppy. except for the fact
that he would on occasion chew things

worst exhibition In this line happened
at the family's country place on LonI
Island at time when several guests
were staying over the weekend. II

left their doors ajar. In the morning
the dog was discovered by q member
of the family chewing on something
but apparently making little headway.
Examination disclosed that 1t was an
upper plate containing the "store
teeth" OF rather sensitive guest. who
wished It believed that his ivory smile
was all his own. There was nothing
to be done. Those teeth were beyond
wearing. The family could only wait
In horror for their guest to wake to

Los ANGELES
Garment Workers Strike
Against Slave Wages

Los Angeles, Calif.-The entire
force of the Imperial Cloak Shop
here struck against the low wages
which the company sought to impose
on their already poorly paid workers.
The strikers, numbering about IS men
and women, are members of Local No.
65 Of the international Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union.
According to a statement by B.
Surasky, president Of the local, the
strike was precipitated by the deter
mination of the manager to reduce
the wages paid women workers twice
in one day.
six and seven dollars a week for
experienced women is the prevailing
wage in this shop" Mr.. Surasky said.
"The hours are unlimited, running as
high as sixty hours week with no
pay for overtime. In addition, the
women were compelled to furnish the
pins necessary in making the gar
ments."
Mr.. Surasky said the wages for
men were recently reduced to $l4 and
SIG per week for from so to so hours
of labor. The workers were also re-
quired to pay for repairs of the sew
ing machines.
When the last cut was decreed, the
employees appointed shop commit
tee to present their grievances. The
manager refused to listen to them,
and the entire force walked out.

How you may get it, hold it; buy,
sell, give and take it;
How to inherit and bequeath prop

The rules concerning the CONTROL
of Property: that is law"
At least that is nine -tenths of it

But crime? Yes, | know-most
of it offenses against property and
property rights.
Murder? Well, the last thing a
man should be deprived of is the con-
troll of his own life
Murder is just the violation of that
supreme Property Right.
Freedom? Just the control of
ones own proper person: mind, body,
will.
Assault? Only an interference
with freedom.
Morals? Well, it is little shock
ing at ones first hearing Of case of
bastardy, to hear the judge say: "The
court is interested here concerning
the proper provision for the child's
care and education"
Let that be settled: and suddenly,
there is nothing before the court"

FAT PROFITS
Made By Giant Utility In
Slump Years

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Fat
