Largely in Revised
Recovery Plan.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. IL In
creased government pressure for
crop control and foreign trade ap-
peared today fundamental in Presi-
dent Roosevelt's plan to boost COM
modify prices higher and peg them.
Credit expansion to utilize some
Of the power of idle American
money appears, also, to be a part
Of the program.
The American Bankers ASsocia-
ton convention here the latter part
Of this month will offer the admin
istration it's chance to outline the
next development in price recovery.
Mr.. Roosevelt is scheduled to
make the principal convention
speech, supported by Chairman Jesse
Jones of RFC and Leo T. Crowley,
chairman of the FDIC. The men
coming here will represent about
three-quarters of the banks in the
United States.
There have been indications re-
Gently of improved relations between
banks and the administration. The
financiers gave useful assistance in
the recent conversion of Liberty
bonds.
A year ago the RFC head was
blasting the banks with criticism
for refusing to make loans when
their vaults bulged with cash. He
says now that there is some "ti-
midity" among the bankers but that
there is a general disposition to CO.
operate.
This change in the Jones atti-
tude became noticeable some
months ago when dispatches from
Houston revealed that his own bank
had decreased its loans and in
creased its cash in the latter part
of 1888.
Mr.. Roosevelt apparently does not
believe dollar manipulation will bulk
largely in further price increases
and sterilization. He seems to have
been converted to the theory of
Henry A. Wallace, secretary of ag-
riculture, that the Roosevelt none
tary policy has been mere tempo
rary money fagic."
Mr.. Wallace contends that dollar
devaluation was necessary and de-
sirable, but that the benefits it
rendered by increasing the export
of American surplus goods can be
only temporary.

MINTON TO Get
LABOR'S VOTES.
PARTY CLAIMS
Senator Has Done About
Face Democratic Official
Charges.

Indiana labor's antipathy to the
candidacy Of Senator Arthur r.
Robinson, Republican. was voiced
today by Robert Z. Mythen. director
OF the Democratic labor bureau, in
commenting on Senator Robinson's
purpOrted Endorsement by the
twenty-one railroad brotherhoods
Mr.. Mythen pointed out that SEN
ator Robinson's Endorsement by the
railroad organizations was only for
the Republican nomination prior to
the state convention in June.
Consequently, the Endorsement
for nomination had little real sig
nificance, because Senator Robin
son was unoppOsed IN the conven-
ton.
Mr. Mythen also pointed to the
high praise by the brotherhoOds Of
Sherman Minton, Democratic nomi-
nee for senator. in which it was
said
Scores Lii Arthur
while Mr.. MintOn has no public
record beyond that of public coun-
sellor for the public service commits
sion, in which he made a good record
and was regarded as being liberal
and a progressive, he is highly es-
teemed by such of our representa-
tiveS in the field as have expressed
an opinion"
In effect" Mr.. Mythen asserted,
"the high praise of Mr.. Minton
by the national legislative repre-
sentatives of the railroad brother
hoods on information from their
field men, is an Endorsement of Mr..
Minton."
Senator Robinson has done an
about face" on labor, Mr. Mythen
charged.
Campaign Attitude Changed
while he made a good voting
record in behalf of labor" Mr. My
then asserted, his campaign at
titude has changed on his own rec
ord. and he now is opposing the
recovery program he supported when
voting in the senate.
This has caused many of the
senator's labor friends to brand the
senator with inconsistency and
lack Of sincerity in voting as he did,
and has brought a feeling that his
votes were for political expediency
in his own behalf.
This attitude on the part of Sen
ator Robinson means the loss of the
labor vote in Indiana, which will
go to Sherman Minton, who has
pledged himself to support President
Roosevelt"

IF YOU are in the market for a
smart day-in and day-out dress
that will see you safely around
the clock, we recommend this
one. 1t is a dress that can be
easily and economically made at
home, even by women who never
before have attempted dressmaking.
Its lines subscribe to the continued
trend toward simplicity in daytime
clothes.
The one adorning detail is the
scarf collar, which is shaped to fit
the neck prettily in the back, and in
the front has the appearance of
casual scarf, slightly crushed and
pulled through slash off-center on
the right.
Tucks at the shoulder give just the
fullness required through the bodice
front. The straight-line skirt is
supplied with a pleat at the side
seam. The waist, dipping into a
point below the belt, adds inches to
the effect of height. All in all, this
is a modish dress, which looks right
whether 1t Is made in silk or in wool.
Indications for Spring show navy
blue leading in Importance over black.
Both are expected to be worn exten-
sively with trimmings of white or
natural color In printed fabrics, the
same forecast holds good for the pre-
dominating backgrounds, introduced
over which will be vivid reds, wines,
blues, yellows and greens. Further,
fabric variety is represented in mix
lures of wool and silk, the combined
results of which make for a beauti-
fully drapable fabric especially smart
in dresses of this general type. Sheer
wool crepes come in an attractive

Conquering Contract
BY r. HAL SIMS.

East knew that the opponents had
some sort Of spade suit. Outside Of
that. all was blackness After what
might have passed for thought, he
laid down the queen OF hearts. i
Unfortunately for East and West,
the lowest heart West held was the
seven spot. and since the declarer
rapidly dropped his third highest
heart on the trick, East may be ex-
cused for reasoning that his partner
liked the lead.
At this point Mr.. Kennedy could
count eight tricks-four hearts and
four diamonds. The question of the
hour was: Where is the ninth trick?
II a spade trick gets by the opponents,
all will be well. But II West gets the
lead with the ace Of spades. he will
surely shift to club. A little fore
stalling seemed to be in order. Mr..
Kennedy confidently led a small cluS
from the board and went up with tn,
queen in his own hand.
East won with the ace and re-
turned o second heart. After the
ace Of clubs was located in East's
hand, North decided that West held
the ace Of spades. He won the sec
ond heart lead in dummy and played
small spade toward his queen. West
naturally ducked. West was under
the impression that Mr.. Kennedy held
the queen-jack Of clubs third, while
East believed that the declarer held
the king, queen, ten of clubs and was
congratulating himself for not having
opened the suit. The ninth trick was
home. Amid cheers from the by.
ISLANDERS, three no trumps was chalket
up for the home team.

Steamed FIG Pudding. .

Chop very fine one cupful Of beef
suet and mix with two cupfuls of soft
bread crumbs and half a cupful of
white -four which has been sifted
with one and one-half teaspoonfuls of
baking powder and half q teaspoon
full of salt. Add two cupfuls Of finely
chopped figs, busted with little
flour, and two eggs well beaten with
three -fourths cupful Of sugar, then
mixed with two-thirds cupful of milk
and one teaspoonful Of vanilla. Mix
all the ingredients very thoroughly,
turn into a well-greased and Toured
mold, cover and steam for three and
one-haf hours. Unmold and serve on
q lace-paper dolly; garnish with sprigs
Of holly. Serve in slices, topping
each with rounded spoonful of
vanilla ice cream.
Evening star., 1934-12-20

The importance Of q partial is
minimized in cumulative scoring. It
is far better to try for dubious game
than to sign of safely at the three
level. Mr.. Kennedy, however, actually
believed that there was game in
the hand, once his partner had
opened fourth hand with a bid of
one spade. Disdaining construction,
he leaped Immediately to three no
trumps.
1t so happens that four hearts is
a much, much safer contract, and 1t
so happens that South cannot make
four hearts, II he stands on his head.
That annoying jack of spades is in the
wrong place.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. SPROwLs.

THE human machine is capable OF
l taking on an unlimited number
of automatic responses, /. E., habits
well learned. We think automatically,
automatically become angry and
afraid. More important, however, are
all those automatic responses whereby
we do our daily tasks. It is conceiv-
able that many OF us would not be
able to stay at them II 1t were not
for the fact that we are able to re-
duce the major part OF our duties
to purely automatic response. Inere
are typists who can strike the correct
keys while thinking Of something re-
mote from their work. This is rare.
but 1t shows how automatic our habits
become.
Our personality traits are all auto
matte. Some are beneficial, many are
not. The problem of habit-breaking
is even greater than that OF habit
formation.
How can habits be broken? The
surest way of failing to break habit
is to try to break 1t. The unlearning
of a habit can be accomplished best
bv learning q new and more desirable
one. Positive action Is always more
valuable than negative action. TO
learn is generally easier than to un-
learn. The old habit will often drop
off more easily in new surroundings,
for habits have remarkably close con-
nections with the surroundings In
which they were acquired. No falling
back upon the old habit should oc-
cur when learning and practicing a
new one to take its place. 1t would
only prolong the struggle and increase
the effort required to break it. There
is also danger that the habit you
are trying to throw off will gain a
stronger hold than ever and finally
become impossible to eliminate.
