There Is Still Much Work Left
for Us to Do

Those sleek, streamlined trains
that the railway lines have been
throwing about the country lately
come close to being the most encour-
aging single thing that has happened
since the depression.
Or, to oe more exact, the public's
response to them does.
Since those trains appeared, the
newspapers and magazines have been
full Of predictions Of vast new rail-
road construction programs. Hand
in hand with this has come q great
revival Of interest In new types Of
construction In other fields.
Makers of steel houses are stirring
from the long sleep. Automobile
makers are playing around with new
designs. Even the output Of such
things as refrigerators and household
furniture has been affected.
Now all this, to begin with, is sim
ply the process Of putting ourselves
on tiptoe to peer into an enormous
rev field that Is fairly begging for
industrial expansion.
A great opportunity awaits Ameri-
can business, somewhere not far Oft.
it begins to look as II We would be
moving into It In the near future.
But there Is more to It than that.
It also signifies the revival Of tho old,
traditional American spirit. We are
discovering that the world is not COM
ing to an end, after all-that there Is
work to be done, and lots Of It, and
that We might just as well roll up our
sleeves and get busy on 1t.
We talked 50 much about over-pro-
duction. over-expansion, and over
capitalization in the last four years
that we fooled ourselves into think
ing that We had left our golden age
away off behind us somewhere.
Everything was finished, all the big
Jobs had been done, and the only
thing that would ever set the wheels
going again was a great program Of
occasionally useless public works.
Then we saw couple Of brand new
types Of railroad train, did . little
meditation. and discovered that It
just wasn't 50.
There Is enough work crying to be
done In this country to keep us al
busy for generations.
When We have remads the worlds
greatest railroad system, rebuilt some
millions Of homes, harnessed III our
streams. restored our failing forests,
checked soil erosion and performed I
dozen other similar 5o-year Jobs
then It may be time for u to look
around and ask, what next7"
But W won't see that time. Our
grandchildren may. II they live long.
Greater than all other troubles Of
the depression was tho paralysis that
fell on the old American spirit Of de-
termination and hope. That spirit Is
now reviving. There could not pos
sibly Be better augury for the iu-
ture.

Mrs. Beatty knows, because she
herself has that same love of dolls.
Each year, when she comes to
take her place as doll expert and
advisor" in the L. S. Ayres & Co.
toy department she looks over
the doll collection carefully. And
Christmas Eve, when the stock of
dolls has been depleted by Christ
mas shoppers, and when every
question has been answered as to
how to care for the Christmas
dolls, she slips behind the parti-
ton and tenderly lifts a box,
which she carries home with her.
1t is her own Christmas doll,
to be added to doll family which
fills every nook and corner of her
own home.
Il love these dolls just as the
little girls to whom I sell them
do" she laughingly explains.

THERE'S a look of yearning

afterward, Mrs. Beatty began guild

Very tiny girls always want

MONON SLASH
is DEFENDED BY
STATE OFFICERS
MCNutt Joins Tax Board in
Answer to Attack Made
by Payne.

Defense against allegations Ilss.t
the state has favored big business
in reducing the Monon railroad
valuation 40 per cent was offered
today by the State Tax Board, Gov.
Paul V. McNutt and H R. Kurrie,
president of the railroad
The replies were in response to
published charges made by Gavin
L. Payne, Indianapolis business man.
Gov. McNutt said yesterday he had
not received any communication
from Mr. Payne and that he had
learned Of the charges only through
publication.
Mr.. Payne expressed surprise that
his letter had not reached the Gov
ernor, explaining that it was sent
by special messenger.
In his broadside against the tax
board Mr.. Payne charged that the
small home and farm owner had
been Disseminated against by the
order 'rebating" the railroad taxes
for three years
Board Members Explain
Philip Zoercher. tax board chair
man. and Albert Walsman and Gay
lord Morton, the other members,
joined in a reply to Mr. Payne.
They explained that the Monon
had been given permission by the
United States Circuit Court to OBJ
tain a revaluation on a fair and
equitable basis.
Had the tax board refused to
act" the statement said, "a master
in chancery would have been APP
pointed to investigate and make
report to the court of what the
master thought was a fair valuation.
Delay would have been caused, the the
costs would have mounted and then
the valuation might have been fixed
at a lesser amount"
Rail President Replies
Local officers in the counties
where the Monon has properties, were
consulted, the tax board said. The
railroad is making payments now
where the local officers have sent in
corrected amounts.
The statement from Mr. Kurrie at
his offices in Chicago pointed out
that the railroads unpaid and ac-
cruing tax bills were So large there
was no chance of meeting them.
He termed the revaluation in the
best interest of the taxing units
concerned.

interest in dolls which was appar-
ent several years ago. In the last
three years, according to Mrs.
Beatty, they have become newly
interested in these make believe
children, and sales in dolls have
increased
There are certain types of dolls
which are merely fads, and which
girls want just to show their lit
tie friends during the Christmas
holidays. The new Shirley Temple
dolls, which have been introduced
by one manufacturer this year,
are of this kind
They look almost exactly like
the popular little movie star, and
girls who have followed her in her
recent pictures recognize hercloth-
ing as copies of the dresses in
which she has appeared on the
screen. Every dress is a copy OF
one of Shirley Temples own.
But the doll which is creating
the most interest in little girls
whose maternal instincts just are
beginning to develop is the new
Dy-Dee baby doll, which also is
a new one this year"
MRS. BEATTY, like the little
AVA girls to whom she sells dolls,
cherishes them, and finds it diff
cult to give the old ones away.
Sometimes 1 get them out,
freshen them up, and give them
to children whom 1 know, but
more often I buy other dolls for
gifts, for these of my own are too
dear to me-" she said. 81 can Wis

U. S. MOVES TO
!. FINANCE PUBLIC
POWER PLANTS
Aid Promised New York City
in Effort to Erect
Own Utilities.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O-Presi-
dent Roosevelt opened the way to-
day for Federal financing of munic-
ipal utility plants throughout the
country as another step in his mill
tant fight for lower electric rates.
The President struck at the very
heart of the privately owned utility
industry when he joined forces with
Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in a
threat to build a publicly owned
power system in New York City.
Possible far-reaching consequences
of the Presidents action were re-
f1ected Immediately on the New York
Stock Exchange, where utility stocks
reeled to lower levels. Wall Street
frankly was apprehensive.
Roosevelt Assures Action
Machinery for putting through a
$15,00O,O0O PWA loan>to the City of
New York for construction of an
electric plant was thrown into high
gear. President Roosevelt assured
Mayor La Guardia of preferred &C
ton on the application.
Mayor La Guardia went from the
ire dental conference to the office
of Harold likes, Secretary of Inter
ior and PWA Administrator. He
emerged, still smiling, and an
nounced he had received reason
able assurance" that the loan would
be approved.
In reply to a question as to how
much the public power system would
involve, the mayor said it all de-
ponds on which one of two courses
the city follows,
Two Courses Open
eff they (the private utilities) be-
have" he said, like laW-abiding
citizens, we will follow one plan.
Otherwise"
The otherwise" he indicated,
might mean the city would go into
the power business by selling cleo
tricity directly to consumers. The
final cost of the plant, estimated up
to $1O7,OOOO00, would depend upon
which course is followed, he said.
If the New York loan is made it
was believed probable other cities
will follow in making application for
loans to buy or build electric plants
to operate in competition with pri-
vately owned companies, at least
to the extent of supplying power
and electricity to municipal, state
and Federal buildings.

NRA To DEMAND
PROSECUTION OF
CODE VI0LATORS
Immediate Court Action to
Follow Blue Eagle
Removals.
BVUuifedP-ess

BIZ United P~css
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Blue
Eagle removals in future are to be
followed quickly by prosecution of
code violators. Sol A. Rosenblatt,
NRA compliance and enforcement
director, said today in announcing
nine regional centers for a greatly
speeded code compliance effort.
Regional officers who are given
authority TO act On all code COM
plants have been requested to in
vestigate and attempt TO adjust diff
fculties within 70 hours after they
are reported. If investigation proves
the complaint justified and adjust
ment fails. regional officers then
may remove the right to use NRA
insignia, and prepare court prosecu-
ton in cooperation with local dis
trict attorneys.
Mr.. ROsenblatt expects this new
system to make quick inroads on
pending complaints of labor and
trace practice violations. OF the
former. which involve failure to
meet code wages and work hours,
15,026 cases we're on hand Dec. 8.
In the previous two weeks, he said,
5000 cases we're cleaned up" but
5000 new cases were submitted.
IS Blue Eagles Removed
There we're pending at that time
2740 trade practice complaints, of
which 300 have been handled, he
said. Fifty-six Blue Eagles were re-
moved from Dec. to Dec. II. Here
after Blue Eagles are not going to
be removed unless we believe it can
be followed up by immediate prose-
cution," Mr.. Rosenblatt declared.
The enforcement drive is taking
up a new type of case in which an
executive order was issued by the
President to bring viOlators to
justice. The order prohibits dis
charge of employees who report their
employers for code violation. TWO
court actions have been started in
Chicago, and will be followed by
swift investigation of all other such
complaints, according to Mr.. RoSen-
blatt.
The regional headquarters will
have a director, administrative as
sistant, compliance council COM
posed of representatives for en-
ployers and labor, with an impartial
chairman: an attorney from NRA
litigation division, who will work
closely with Federal district at
torneys, and a stable staff OF
trained investigators.
Regional Centers Named
Regional centers are Boston, At
lanta. Cleveland, Chicago. Dallas,
San Francisco, Omaha, New York
City and Washington.
Two-thirds of trade practice COM
plants deal with price violations,
Mr.. Rosenblatt said labor COM
plants mostly are in service codes,
which have been badly tangled since
all national trade practice provisions
were dismissed by executive order
in midsummer.
Workers have secured restitution
of s1.468.O47 wages due them by
proper observance of code standards
in cases settled for 60,167 employees

how the little girl will look Christ

What kind have I selected for

From behind the partition in

GREEK AND ROMAN
TREND IN SANDALS

The shoe designers, who are taking
themselves as seriously these days as
the old masters immortalized in the
Metropolitan museum, have delved in
to the ancient history of many nations
to produce the array Of sandals and
ghillies, bejeweled dance slippers and
tailored pumps that confront the mod
ern woman whose grandmother used
to be contented with one good service
able pair Of shoes year.
The up-and-coming deb this season
will wear sandals modelled after those
worn by Helen of Troy, or beach slip
pers such as once adorned the pink
tipped toes of Cleopatra.
Authenticity Greek and Roman in
their inspiration are the new sandals
worn not only for beach wear, but to
complement any kind of summer
sports costume. They're simple affairs

sole, leaving the toes altogether I'M

centers around fabric gloves and the
matching accessories which go with

coverings, with perhaps little vari-
alton in design and stitching and color
now and then.
However, here on the stage of
fashion this very moment speaking for
themselves Is an endless array Of
gloves made Of every material known
to the ingenuity Of man and revealing
wealth of ideas which are simply
breathtaking in point of originality
and audacious styling.

for suits started the Juror by ere

enthusiasm Chanel and Talbot, those
two foremost originators of sportswear
vogues, sponsor fabric gloves with
matched accessories for spring and

Takes Much Water to
Quench Engines Thirst

Long-distance nonstop runs and
high speeds on our railways demand
enormous quantities Of first-class
water, much of which is purified by
being passed through understanding
plants before it is supplied to the
troughs placed between the running
lines at convenient points.
Between 5000 and 5000 gallons Of
water are carried in locomotive
tender, and into series of troughs
varying in length between 600 and
700 yards hinged scoops are lowered
by the fireman Of an engine running
over the troughs, the speed of the
train forcing the water through in
ternal vertical pipes leading from the
scoop to the tanks of the engine ten
ders. By this means, between 1900
and 5000 gallons of water can be
picked up In Is to 20 seconds, and
on the assumption that a passing
train picking up water draws 1900
gallons from the troughs, it is calcu-
lated that the normal water level is
regained In less than five minutes.
The water troughs are filled from
Storage tanks with capacity of any
thing up to 10000 gallons. Each
trough has its own valve and aux
iliary tank apparatus preventing the
passage Of train on an "up" line
reducing the level of trough on
'down" line. The Flying Scotsman
