CALLED.
BEST MONEY
IN WORLD

CHICAGO, Dec. 13. Q.N.S0
Middle western business leaders
had the assurance today Of Jesse
H. Jones chairman of the Re
construction Finance Corporation
that the United States dollar "is
the best money in the world and
always will be 4"
Speaking before the annual
dinner meeting of the Illinois
Manufacturers Association, at
tended by the captains of indus
try in the Central West, Chair
man Jones appealed to bankers
and business men alike to sup
port the Administrators recov-
er program.
President Voices Confidence
In a telegram of greeting to
the manufacturers, President
Roosevelt said:
"With the cooperation of all
hands. as the Navy would put
it, we can look forward with
confidence to the future, and
/ know can count on the
members of your organization
for even greater effort in the
future than in the past toward
stimulating business recovery"
Jones declared:
"The cOuntry's greatest need
can be summed up in one word,
confidence Confidence in our
nation, confidence in the Presi-
dent, confidence in the men
we send to Congress, conf
dence in values, and confidence
i'm one another.
"NO one wants a sound dol
lar more than Franklin ROOse-
welt. I have no fear that the
President or Congress will make
it otherwise. 1t is the best
money in the world and al
ways will be-"
WANTS MONEY USED
Jones said the prime objective
of the Administration in its 1e-
covery program is to get more
money in use. He declared:
"The mere fact that we have
an abundance of available cir
culating medium does not do
the trick. We must find ways
and means of getting more
money in actual every day use."
The President has stated his
intention to increase the prices
of commodities, and with that
there can be no honest differ
ence of opinion, he said, and the
methods to be used to raise the
prices should be left largely to
him and to Congress.

ICE CREAM WAR
HITS WORKERS

Protests to the Consumers Ad-
visory Council about price-cutting
of two out-of town ice cream COM
panies were made public today as
employees of local concerns, declar-
ing their jobs were in jeopardy,
took up arms against the situation.
Employees of six washington
dairies. all under the Blue Eagle
and observing code regulations,
pointed out that the out-of-toWn
firms not only have not Joined
the NRA, but are underselling
local companies. The accused
dairies are the High Ice Cream
Company, of Richmond, and the
Breyer Ice Cream Company, Phila-
delphia subsidiary of the National
Dairy Products Corporation.
About 1000 workers in local
dairies are faced with the prospect
of losing their jobs, it is charged
one company having let seven per-
sons go and As more expecting
momentary dismissal.
Charles McCloskey, business
agent for the Ice Cream Workers
Union, asserted that with the
Breyer concern selling products to
retailers for from so to IS cents a
gallon, and the other at even lower
prices, ''sweat shop" wages pre-
vail.
A meeting of employees of Wash
ington companies has been called
for tonight in Trade Union Hall,
in the 700 block Fifth st. N. w., to
map out a campaign of action.
McCloskey said a committee would
be named to urge customers of the
two accused companies to deal
only with local firms.

John D. "Better,"
But Remains Weak

EW YORK, Dec. 13 G.N.SO.
Although John D. Rockefeller has
recovered from his attack of
grippe sufficiently to be up and
around the house at his estate
near Tarrytown, his family was
reported today to be concerned
over the aged financier's failure
to regain his strength with any
degree of speed. Rockefeller has
not been out of the house at
Pocantico Hills for more than a
week.

SCHOOL PUPILS AND WAR

IT IS not surprising that school children who
we're examined in a survey by two profess
sors Of Columbia university, should have re-
vealed a tendency to glorify everything con-
nected with war. Martial thngs-roll OF
drums. blare Of trumpets, men in uniform.
and all the fanfare and trumpery of war
have well nigh irresistible appeal to young
MINDS, and 10 many old ones
School children in the very nature of
things can have little appreciation Of the hor-
rors and cruelty of war; they see only its
glories Their text book heroes are great
soldiers, and they learn that the destinies of
their own country have revolved about war
Was not America born in blood? Was not
Lincoln hero to be emulated. even though he
led nation in war?
Nor is there any wonder that children have
little grasp of the machinery of peace Even
adults might be found woefully lacking in
knowledge of the Kellogg pact. the World
court, the League of Nations, and the intri-
cacies surrounding these. agencies.
But while the professors survey reveals
little that is surprising, it does call attention
to the need for bringing forcby nome to fu-
turc citizens the fact that war is a national
catastrophe and that as such it is TO be
