totaIed only $3,490.
Mrs. John A. Johnston, director OF

To Stress Home Safety.
One Of the principal objectives Of
the roll call will be to assist the chap
ter's program Of cooperation with the
national organizations home-safety
campaign. It was pointed out by Of
fcials that Of 10000 900 accidents re-
ported In the United States last year
at least half occurred In homes. Slips
will be distributed s.mong school chill
dren calling attention to possible
sources Of accident at home. Officials
believe this will encourage parents 20

trical and heating connections and
other danger spots. A committee to di-
rect this campaign is headed by DR..
Roy Lyman Sexton.
Booths were set up today In de-
partment stores and banks to enroll

Red Cross will help these until their
claims have been adjusted. Instruc-
ton in home hygiene. including the
care Of the sick at home. is another

PHILADELPHIA, October 15.-Lewis
w. Douglas, former director Of the
budget, warned last night Of . COL
lapse Of Government credit II exces-
sive spending continues, and ques-
TONED whether the Roosevelt admins
tration's estimates Of Government in
come had not been deliberately over
stated"
In . speech for delivery at . meet
ing sponsored by the Sentinels of the
Republic, he described the admins
tration as financing deficits" by an
"insidious and'deceptive method" One
factor In the process, he said, Is the
Governments use Of the "so-called
profit on gold with which it purchases
its own obligations whenever they ap-
pear to weaken-with which, In other
words. 1t rigs the market In its own
securities"
Douglas warned that eat some time,
II excessive spending Is continued, the
artificial supports must collapse, and
with them the credit Of the Govern.
ment.
Fears BANKRUPT System.
when this happens we will ex.
perience a bankrupt banking system,
for 1t now holds approximately go Der
cent OF the Government debt, q bank
rupt Federal Reserve System, for 1t
now holds almost $2,500. .ooo. 900 of
Government obligations. We will have
great mass Of unemployed. and no
Government credit on which they can
subsist."
Douglas. who quit his budget post
earlier In the Roosevelt administra-
ton, said the revised budget esti-
mates for the fiscal year 1886, pub
lished September 30, have been re-
1erred to as an evidence Of q change
In policy from one OF deliberate
spending to one Of bringing the
budget into balance. The speaker
said he did not find "a scintilla of
evidence to indicate a change of
policy"
Revenue Gain Questioned.
He asserted 1t Is not known on
what Is based the estimated increase
Of revenue from $4,000, ,ooo, 900 to s4,-
47o ,ooo, 900.
1T Is to be hoped that the esti-
mated increase viii be actually real
lied. But however high may be our
hopes, the fact remains that the
revenue collected up to the fourth
day Of October of this year was but
25 millions greater than the revenues
collected during the same period for
the fiscal year 1885. Can it by any
chance be that the estimate Of rev.
enue has been deliberately over
stated?"
Douglas headed q list Of WELL
known speakers. one of whom will
be heard nightly this week in con-
nection with an anti-New Deal ex-
hibit at Philadelphia theater. The
Sentinels Of the Republic states its
primary purpose Is ito maintain the
fundamental principles Of the Ameri-
can Constitution" The organization

CLUBWOMEN CONCENTRATE on
AMERICAN PRINCIPLES

America will be a better place when
more women, and men too. follow the
example set by clubwomen of southern
California, gathered at CaleXico for the
annual southern district convention of
the California Federation of Women's
Clubs. Behind the gaiety and fun of the
convention is d more serious note demon
strating how thoroughly these women
understand the need for study of cur
rent world and national problems.
Washington Close-ups," Neutrality
and Munitions Control" yourselves En-
Masse, are among the subjects chosen
by speakers at the closing day of the
convention. Even in the night devoted
to entertainment and joliification, the
women based their skits on serious sub
Jects, lampooning the League of Nations
in a witty series of sketches touching
largely upon political and economic
problems.
Better government will be result of
the interest taken by the clubwomen of
southern California and their sisters in
every part of the nation in the affairs of
government. Their opinions play an in
calculable part in moulding the ways
of any country. Well informed as they
are, the women put to shame many men
whose daily contacts should educate

the events of the day. In homes and
offices, the influence exerted by them
is one of the greatest factors in bring
ing about thorough understanding by
other individuals of the things which ev-
cry citizen should understand
There was day when clubwomen were
regarded merely as factors in the social
world, eXerting widespread Influence
there but having little to say elsewhere
All that is changed, largely through
such meetings as the one at Calexico.
The womens clubs, now, play as great
a part in public life as most other organ
izations Since this is true, it is vital to
the we'll being of the government that the
clubwomen know fully the political and
economic problems of the day.
That they do realize the problems is
demonstrated in meetings like the south
ern district convention.

EVEN POLITICIANS CANNOT
MAKE BUSINESS BAD

Whatever the political hue and cry in
coming months, there is no person or
group who can truthfully deny that
business is better. This column pointed
out yesterday the upward trend indicat-
ed in drastic reduction of federal and
state relief rolls by unemployment of
former jobless persons in private indus
try. Latest indication of better times is
the announcement that the United States
foreign trade in October was the heav-
lest since March, 1881. Imports also
were largest since March, 1881.
Indications that better times are not
local or sectional have been coming thick
and fast for several months. Building
trades, always a reliable barometer of
business conditions, report steadily in
creasing prosperity. Other lines of bus
mess have followed suit. Regardless of
political affiliation, leaders in industry
and finance are agreed in the belief that
still better times are coming. They can
not all be wrong
There will be much said to the con-
trary in the next few months-aimed
mostly at a political goal. Dire predc-
tions will come one after the other On
the other hand, there are some who may
attempt to color with an even roster hue
the already rosy prospects for business
betterment.
Remembering that business is better,
the average American has only to keep a
level head during the brewing political
storm season, remembering also that he
cannot believe all he hears. He will
come out on top in the end
