MESSAGE TO CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, March 29. - Tn another direct special message to Congress, President Roosevelt this afternoon asked Congress to pro- vide Federal supervision over in- vestment securities. He declared the public has sustained severe losses through practices neither ethical nor honest" thereupon it is proposed to invoke the power of the Federal Government in inter- state commerce traffic to control the new securities.
 Move Is Started
 Preparations are already under way in the House and Senate to expedite the new legislation. Hear ings to be heard by the Interstate Commerce Committee will start tomorrow.
 The President also informed Con- gress he will soon propose legisla- tion relating to better supervision over the purchase and sale of all properties dealt in by exchanges
 Further Legislation
 The President also spoke of leg islation he has in mind to correct the unethical and unsafe practices on the part of officers and di- rectors of banks and other corpora tions. What we seek is a return to a clear understanding of ancient truth that those who manage banks, corporations and other agencies, handling or using other peoples money, are trustees acting for the others"

tain that your class standing spelled

upon the same for your child?
Don't your own memories say any

A mark? 1t is SO easy to forget these
things. Maybe your child has twice
your former power. Your standard will
not flt him in any case. He must work
on his own. Get as close to that as
you can and try to be satisfied when
the child has done all in his power to
acquit himself according to his ability.
II you are a college graduate with
honor marks and your child cannot
pass the entrance examinations, don't
try to make him by telling him how
good you were and what a disgrace he
Is. He didn't make himself.
II you are an artist and YOUR child
an artisan, make the best of it. Bet
ter good artisan than q bad artist,
any time. II you have an artist for a
son, don't try to make him lawyer,
though there has been a long line OF
successful lawyers in the family. It
isn't possible for him to be anything

who does poor school work don't tell
him he has to be a teacher. He isn't

All you succeed in doing when you
try to hold a child to an impossible
standard is to make him unfit for what
he might do and render him unhappy
where he might have been full of the

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

I say almost straight" because the
compass needle does not point directly
toward the poles reached by Peary,
Amundsen and others. Instead the
needle turns toward the spots which
have been called 1.-The Magnetic Pole
of the North" and 'the Magnetic Pole
of the South
The Magnetic Pole of the North is at
a point northwest of Hudson Bay, just
about at the western edge Of Boothia
Peninsula.
The Magnetic Pole Of the South is
close to the border Of Victoria Land, in
the Antarctic region.
II a hole could be drilled between
the two magnetic poles, 1t would miss
the center of the earth by several
hundred miles.
Why do the magnetic poles exist, and
why do compass needles point to them
instead of to the North and South Poles
of geography? Scientists have not yet
found a certain answer to this question.
Possibly it Is due to the tilt Of the
earths axis II 1t were not for that
"tilt," the weather would be almost
the same north and south Of the
equator As 1t is, the tilt causes us
to have Winter In December. January
and February, while folk In Argentina,

made tests. and he found that the
needle would point toward the north

why it should be so, the earth appears

Everyday Psychology
Personality and Character.
By DIR. JESSE v. sPRowLs.

PersonalLy anu Cnaracter.
A great many laymen confuse the
terms personality and character. A
great many psychologists, who should
know their terms, make the same mis-
take. SO why find fault with the lay
men?
When you speak of character you
mean that part of ones personality
that YOU can count on. When you
speak of personality you have in mind
a combination of traits which taken
together constitute personal force.
Don't lose sight of the force idea.
If you want to know the difference
between personality and character, go
to any bank and try to borrow hun
dred dollars on your personality. 1t
may be done: has been done. But you
will get farther if you present your
character, which is generally SYM
bolized by third party in terms Of
an endorser.
Perhaps we can get down to the diff
ference this way. Character is your
inward self which has been tried. Per-
sonality is your outward self. which
looks good. indifferent or bad, but has
not been tried-neceSsarily.
Personality can be camoufaged a
great deal. Character will crop out in
srite Of everything.

it in front Of a brisk fire until 1t
begins to curl up. Then start at

the skin off gently.
Rugs should be turned around
