 Month

Topeka, Kansas - (UP)-Kan- Bas, which legally has had no taste for liquor in many years, is going to vote on repeal of the state pro- hibition law at the November elec- tion, and close observers of such matters predict that after tho election Kansas still will be dry.
 Kansas and Maine, the original dry states, have come to the part ing of the ways. for while Maine went wet this fall. the prohtbi- tionists of Kansas confidently pre- dict Kansas will not fall into such error.
 That there be no mistake. how ever. a rousing campaign to keep the dry laws on the books and the Urinking of liquor still in the class of an adventure, is underway. with the drys rallying behind the slogan. Keep Kansas Dry for Kansas Youth"

MINIATURE R. R.
 BUILT IN CELLAR
Conn Man Has Unique Set Up With Tracks, Sig
 nals, Tunnel, Bridge

Hamden, Conn.-(P)-S. G. Gill; patrick is builder, president, gen eral manager and sole stockholder of the Spring Glen Inter-connecting Lines, one of the most unique min- iature railroad systems on record.
 In the cellar of his home are 2S0 feet of tracks, switches, tun- nels, bridges and roadbed of an electrified roalroad, all handmade. The main line passes through a tunnel under the coal bin, while bridge route crosses in front of the bin. When Gilpatrick needs a shovel of coal for the furnace the bridge span lifts, block signals click throughout the system and operations temporarily are sus- pended until the furnace has been accommodated
 The rails are all of brass and rest on gravel roadbed on which $500 hand-cut ties have been spread. Steel pillars supporting the overhead electric system are im- bedded in cement bases. Ordinary shoe buttons are used as insulators five gross of them.
 The block signals of the New York Central type, are especially intricate. There are "A relays on one stretch of line alone and 8S separate wires. The road is equip- ped with al safety devices and never has had a wreck. Milwoukee type locomotives can attain a scale speed of 90 mile an hour. The road was built by Gilpat- patrick in three years, during spare time. and is by no means com plete.

Youth Fined $25
 For Hitting Girl

The world seemed a dark and dismal place last Satur- day night to George Sadula, As, of 210 Alder street. The lady of his heart, Mary Brin- kus, who also lives on Alder street, had listened coldly to his repeated proposals of mar riagc and the dance that he was attending at q Green street hall didn't seem at all enjoyable as a result. Then, to add to his misery, Mary had given a decided "NO" to his request for a dance, and she was starting to glide about the floor with someone else. That, for George, was too much, so he went into action.
 The world seemed even darker and more dismal this morning for George Sadula, for he heard Mary relate that he had knocked her down as she started to dance, and that he had also knocked down her partner, one Joseph Laboulis. The depth of everything was reached for George when he heard Judge John F. McGrath imposing on him q fine of $25 and costs for assault and breach of the peace.
 Mary Brinkus, very much aggrieved, related this mOrn- ing that George had let fly g well-timed right to her jaw and that she had hit the floor, after which he repeated the process on Laboulis. Mary said she had no use for George and had gone to great pains to make that clear to him each time he proposed.
 George, speaking in his own defense, said that Mary had once promised to marry him but had later told him that 1t wasn't such a very good idea.
 At this point Judge McGrath interposcd: "A woman has a right to change her mind as well as q man. $25 and costs"

 Motor Patrolman Joseph Garvey found that out last nnfght when he lost a tooth in the line of duty. He was driving a police cruiser down Sunnyside avenue, with a pencil in one hand. He saw a car ahead and applied his brakes. The brakes worked so we'll that the car stopped almost on a dime, sending the pencil into Motor Patrolmat Garvey's mouth and neatly knock ing out a front tooth.

LISTING OF STOCK
DRAWS CRITICISM
PeCora Tells ProberS Ap-
provaI Ignored UnfavorabIe
Balance Sheet.
BY the Associated Press.


Evidence was presented to Senate
investigators today that when the
stock list Of the New York Stock
Exchange approved q new issue for
the American Commercial Alcohol
Corporation last Summer, the ex-
change had In its possession infor-
nation which market oficials con-
ceded was suspicious.
simultaneously, e. A. Golden
weiSer, director Of the Research Di-
vision Of the Federal Reserve Board,
recommended to the House Interstate
Commerce Committee that some
modification be made Of the marginal
provision requirements In the Fletcher
Rayburn stock market regulation bill
TO prevent q restriction OF credit.
Goldenweiser also favored some
legislation to control the abuses" of
the stock market and said the meas
ure before the committee. contained
some of the things he wanted to see
enacted from q social point Of
view"
PeoOra Offers Evidence.
Ferdinand Pecora, Senate Banking
Committee counsel, submitted to the
stock market investigating group
what he said was evidence that in
formation described as suspicious was
in the office Of the Listing Committee
when it approved the alcohol stock
issue
Frank Altschul, chairman Of the
Listing Committee, testified, however,
that members Of that group had not
seen it when they approved the list
ing application.
The information in question was
described as a balance sheet for Nox-
on, Incorporated, q subsidiary Of the
alcohol company, showing $270, 900 in
bills receivable and $4,000 in good
WILL out of total assets Of $3.50. .000
When this was called to his atten-
ton yesterday, AltSchul conceded it
would have aroused suspicion" and
probably would have blocked approval
OF the stock issue.
He explained then that the balance
sheet either had not been received
when the issue was approved or that
1t had not been referred to the COM
mittee through an error.
First Alternative Rejected.
Committee members said the first
alternative in this explanation was re-
jected by the evidence submitted by
Pecora in his effort to prove the ex-
change Is incapable Of self-regulation
and requires Federal control.
1T is not good time to restrict
credit" Goldenweiser told the House
committee in reply to a question by
Representative Bulwinkle, Democrat,
OF North Carolina as to how far Con-
gress should go in regulating credit
Some modification Of the bill Is
desirable" he said, referring to the
40 per cent marginal requirement.
THE margin provisions are likely
to result In a restriction Of credit. 1t
should be made to apply to future
loans, or loans at the time they are
made. but probably not required dur
ing the whole life Of the loan. There
should be little less rigidity and
more discretion"
Goldenweiser suggested the measure
require persons buying stock on mar
gin be compelled to sign notes TO
