Replies to Five Questions
Cover HomeL Lighting Field
Yes to Flash Means All
Necessary Points Are
Provided.

In a recent talk, given by Miss
Leona Berlin, head of the home
lighting department of the Indian
apolis Power and Light Company,
on one of the regular Wednesday
morning broadcasts at 9:15, over
WFBM, these five questions we're
asked of all listeners. If all the
questions could be answered yes,
the home afforded an example of
excellent lighting.
To show what can be expected in
the lighting of a home these ques-
tons we're asked:
Can you see to read comfortably
in each one of the chairs in your
living room without shifting them
about2
Is the chair so placed in relation
to the light so that when you look
up from your book the light from a
bare lamp does not strike you in the
eyes?
Can you sit at your desk and write
so that your hand does not throw a
shadow on the paper or reflect a
glaring light from the paper into
your face?
Is it possible to sit at the farther
end of a davenport and have plenty
of light for reading or sewing?
If children study in the living
room have they comfortable place
at which to work with plenty of good
light for close eye work?
Good light may be had at no adj
ditional or little extra expense. This
is in the reach of all, and if help
is needed a representative of the
home lighting department of the In
dianapolis Power and Light Co. will
be glad to call and make a free
demonstration.

LOANS TO SOV|ETS
OPPOSED BY WOLL
Note to Hull Urges Against
Plan as Part of Debt
Settlement.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 6.--Matthew
Woll, acting president Of the National
Civic Federation, made public today
a letter to Secretary of State Hull in
which he urges against making any
loan to Russia as part of that nation S
debt settlement, and also against eX-
tending long-term credits to the
Soviet Union.
His letter was the result Of re-
port made public by the Foreign
Policy Association which said that a
plan under consideration by the debt
conferees would provide that the debt
would be gradually collected by the
United States in the form of addi-
tional interest paid by the Soviet
government on American credits
which the u. S. S. r. wished to Sc
cure as an integral part of the debt
settlement"
While We admit Wolls letter
said, that it is highly desirable that
an agreement be reached with the
Soviet government for the payment
of Russian debt, I am sure I voice
the feeling of the majority Of Amer
ican taxpayers when urge upon you
the inadvisability of making any loan
as part of the debt settlement or
extending any long-term credits to
the Russian regime for the purchase
of American goods.
The policy of advancing our own
funds to enable foreign nations to
purchase American goods during the
past decade. while perhaps benefiting
certain individual manufacturers and
banking institutions, has cost the
American people enormous sums
which will never be repaid

CHICAGO, August 6.-Cattle moved

Handlers and commission mer-
chants employees, their l2-day strike
settled. returned to work to face a
heavy rush of live stock.
Under the terms of the settlement,
arranged Saturday by Hugh S. john
son, N, R. A. administrator, the first

last night and others returned this
morning The strike involved 800
handlers and 400 commission mer-
chants employees.
The Union Stockyards g. Transit
Co. was unusually peaceful as the men
returned. The district had been en-
tirely cleared of the $50 non-union
men whom the company hired in their
places.
An agreement was reached when
the company promised 48-hour week
to all regular employees and 40-hour
week for so-called extra men" each
week that receipts reach 1000 cars.
Federal Judge Philip L. Sullivan
agreed to re-enter' the case as an
arbitrator. He made an award last
