ARGUMENTS HEARD
INADVERTISING CASE
Supreme Court Interest Keen In
Points Involving Anti
Trust Law.

BY the Associated Press.
Arguments before the United States
Supreme Court on the validity OF
Joint advertising rates under the Sher-
man antitrust act aroused unusual
interest from the bench at yeSter-
days session.
The case was brought by the In
diana Farmers Guide Publishing Co.
of Huntington. Ind, claiming triple
damages for alleged losses Of $l46,131
between 1929 and 1888 through COM
bination Of five companies publishing
five papers.
These five companies operated, 1t
explained. through the Midwest Farm
Paper Unit. Inc. offering combination
advertising rates in seven publications
issued by them.
The five companies forming the
combination are the Wallace Publish
ing Co, Des Moines: the Wisconsin
Farmer Co., and the Webb Publirhing
Co.. both of Minneapolis; the Prairie
Farmer Publishing Co.. Chicago, and
the McKelvie Publishing Co., Lincoln,
Nebr.
Eben Lesh and U. S. Lesh. counsel
for the Indiana Farmers Guide, as
serted the five companies had agreed
to give a rate of S4,870 for a full page
advertisement If inserted in all seven
publications but If inserted in only
six the rate would be $5,l67 or $297
more than for the seven. They argued
that this prevented advertisers from
selecting their publication in place

THE TARWATER GIRLS
GIVE SPLENDID SHOW
Rebecca and Her Sister Penelope
Entertain at the Univer-
sity Club.

. Rebecca Tarwater certainly must
: have grand time slyly watching the
!. human beings about her and enter
tanning her unbounded sense of hu-
!, NOR with the funny little things every
. one does. Otherwise she never would
have been able to conceive and in
:. terpret so keenly the sketches she
presented, with groups of mountain
songs, gay 80" ballads and spirituals
at the University Club last night.
Rebecca, assisted by her sister Pen
elope, thoroughly delighted and COM
spletely won the large audience with
cher pantomimic caricatures and gay
Interpretations of the songs. Prob
rably the most enjoyed of the num-
sbers, at least according to audience
sreaction, was the group of touching
ballads Of gay 90" days, recent
"'Drunkard" ertr-actes, sung by Re-
rbecca with the vocal and piano aid
sof her sister. The other songs. spir-
ettuals sung in duet by both girls, and
mountain songs and lullabyS done by
rRebecca with delectable pantomime
ssalso were keenly appreciated.
The serious note of the recital, and
possibly the one most well done, was
"a new study in mimicry performed
before an audience for the first time,

aiScheink. an aged teacher of acting

TREASURY REPORTS
BOOTLEGGING DROP
Federal Liquor Revenues Show
Gain, Indicating Decrease
in Illicit Rum.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A. steady decrease in bootlegging in
the past four months was reported
yesterday by Secretary Morgenthau.
He said this was indicated by in
creasing Federal liquor revenues, larg-
er sales in State-owned stores and
higher prices for illicit alcohol.
Morgenthau added that increases in
liquor tax receipts from as early as
August indicated that the rise in COL
lections was not merely seasonal"
one coinciding with the advent of cold
weather.
Disclosing that 81 per cent Of alcohol
tax criminal cases handled by the
Federal courts between July l and
October l had resulted in convictions,
Morgenthau said the attitude Of the
courts was an important factor in the
campaign to make the entire liquor
industry yield taxes.

And suddenly Hetty remembered Vance En-
ders. He was engineer with construction
company, and he might know Chris Engineers
hung around together, wore the same kind Of
buttons, belonged to the same clubs and so on.
She looked him up in her little scribbled ad-
dress book and wrote him, asking him where
he hiding and why, and would he get in
touch with her? few days later her tele-
phone wanted her, and it was Vance Enders,
quite bit astonished.
We'll, it's good to hear from you after all
these months. May take you to dinner?' he
asked politely.
Sure" said Hetty so promptly that the words
seemed to have crossed at Francis street and
Seventh.
Hetty met him at restaurant so that Mar
celia would not know what was afoot. Vance
came in, looking substantial and prosperous. a
feat these days, almost unparalleled.
1T is nice to see you,' he said.
"Tharks," said Hetty politely. But this
wasn't what she wanted to talk about, for Mar
cella's case had grown more desperate Oftener
disappeared, looking determinedly happy.

powerfully. Why, yes, he did; not well; yes.
in a way Of speaking. Why?
Can you take message to him for me?'
What is the message?"
Ask him If he ever heard of Napoleon"
Vance laid down his knife and pricked up
his ears I'm case he has heard Of Napoleon.
what is he to do about it?"
Tell him to pay no attention to his battles
but to get to his love letters and study his heavy
artillery"
Vance shook his head. 1T may mean some
thing in code. What has Napoleon got to do
with Chris Appleton?'
"A great DEAL" said Eetty, going into de-
tails.
A FIER she had sent Vance with her dis
patches, Hetty settled back, pleased with
the fine work she had DONE She began to
speculate how Chris would respond Would
he get Marcella on long-distance? Would he
telegraph her a heart-broken message? Would
he send dray with flowers? Or would he
come himself, humbly, and yet with ecStacy
flung across his face?
He came the third day. Chris did. Hetty
who was planted at the window saw him get
out of the taxi and come up the steps. He
buzzed his button, but no answer. Marcella
was out. OF course, that was shock to him,
thought Hetty.
Hetty's own doorbutton buzzed, and arrang-
ing her hair and allowing smile to homestead
her face, she opened the door.

Sign of Confidence


Just as the federal deposit insur-
ance corporation instilled confidence
into the American banking system.
so does the refusal Of some strong
banks to accept its further protection
indicate continued growth Of a spirit
Of optimism.
Thus the announcement that q
commercial banks have resigned from
the fund Is pleasing rather than
doleful information. It means that
the managers OF these banks are con-
fident Of their ability to meet all de-
mands upon them and that this con-
fidence extends to their depositors.
All told, 1913 banks now have with
drawn from the insurance corpora
ton. including 1877 mutual savings
banks. Most of them are In small
communities, thus signifying return
Of confidence where it counts most.
Big banks with imposing assets might
be expected to be the first to break
away. One does not expect the great
to be afraid. But when small banks
strike out on their own 1t means that
the spirit Of optimism Is pretty gen.
orally restored.
