Wont I do, Pippin?"
She turned unexpectedly and
kissed her mothers lips.
But she grew quiet after Bill
was gone. She studied savagely.
Saturday after Saturday she re-
fused dates.
Why, I thought you wanted
a hundred hearts so you could
love them all, Pippin?"

Again and again Chickie tried
to break through that hard,
young reserve. She was used
to the girls sudden changes Of

That bit deepest of all into
Chickie's heart. Pippin was no
longer coquetting with her
father. She didn't date him up
for her Saturday afternoons as
she used to do, cumming off
to the laboratory to get expert
collaboration on her science
problems. No longer bobbing
like a gay golden flower at a
proud David's side.

Long before he took it seri-

D. k. EXPECTED.
On D. {, BILLS

Senate approval Of several Dis
trict measures is expected to be
obtained during the coming week
when unobjected bills of the cal
endar are considered.
On the calendar to date are
six District bills, but at least two
Of these will be objected to for
passage under unanimous con-
sent.
Among those which are ex-
pected to receive Senate sanction
is that designed to strengthen
the laws prohibiting gambling in
the District.
The other three measures the
Senate probably will pass are:
A bill to require the furnishing
of heat in apartment buildings;
a bill granting authority for
steam railroads to electrify their
lines within the District, and a
measure exempting from taxation
certain District property of the
national society, United States
Daughters of 1912.

BEER
PERMITS ASKED

The Federation of Citizens AS
sociations today asked the House
District Committee to institute
legislation modifying the Dis
trict's liquor laws so that a per-
son could obtain a license to
sell only 30 beer.
Although not stated in the re-
quest, it is understood the pro-
posed change would provide that
such licenses be much less eX-
pensive than the present ones.
The Federation opposed the
bill introduced by Senator Will
liam H. King (D,) of Utah, chair
man of the Senate District Com
mittee, providing for regulation
of foreclosures and deeds of trust
as unfair to mortgages"
Opposition also was voiced to
the bill of Representative Carl
M. Weideman CD of Michigan,
which would modify the Districts
liquor law and permit sale OF
hard liquor in residential zones.
The Northeast Citizens AS
sociation asked the committee
to act favorably on bill au-
thorizing a reduction in fees as
sessed by the recorder of deeds
and that the fee for recording
of miscellaneous papers be re-
ducd 81 to so cents. The aSso-
citation opposed the Black racing
bill.

ACTIVE DEMAND
FOR STEEL Barred
Structural Awards Larger.
Non-Ferr0uS Metals
Are Quiet.
- the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, February 3.-More
active demand tor steel products from
automobile manufacturers caused a
gain in steel operations during the
last week and the outlook was said
to have been further improved by
quick response of railroads to Federal
plans for stimulating railway equip
ment purchases. Structural awards
were also somewhat larger. However
improvement had not vet reached
mills rolling heavier products. Prices
were unchanged.
Non-ferrous metals we're rather
quiet. Copper eased "a cent to the
basis Of cents for electrolytic owing
to continued poor demand as con-
sumers awaited the outcome of code
conferences at Washington. Differ
ences were still said to exist between
producers and SmelterS over some
provisions proposed at Washington.
Declines in tin as result of eaSi-
ness of sterling in terms of the dol
lar again made consumers cautious
after moderate buying interest had
developed earlier in the week when
prices had rallied moderately.
Zinc rose 81 per ton in sympathy
with tighter ore situation and tirmer
views of smelters, although consumer
buying broadened only moderately.
Lead quotations were unchanged,
producers reporting a fair business
booked from widely divergent types
OF consumers, principally for Febru-
ary delivery.
Antimony remained quiet. with
business still confined to small prompt
lots.
