the general economic sentiment is

In the Ford factory, he said, 25,600

ROOSEVELT HINTS
'REPA|RS'.F0RU.S.
Keynote for Speeches in
Future Seen in White
House Parable.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG,
Stan CORRESPONDENT Of The Star

HYDE PARK, N. Y, September A.
An informal talk to q group Of
Duchess County neighbors last night
and long distance speech two weeks
ago to the young Democrats meeting
In Milwaukee may serve as the key
note OF Mr.. RooSevelt's political ut
terances in the near future.
In both speeches he seemed eager
to impress upon Americans the theory
that old and WORKOUT things need
modernization and renovation, il life
is to be made happier and safer, and
that there is no need to fear neces-
sary repairs.
Speaks in Rain.
About a hundred men and women
stood in a drilling rain to hear him
last night. They sensed the signi-
ficance Of the New Deal parable he
drew from the repairs now being
made on the White House. He made
no direct reference to his administra-
ton or his ideas for improving the
Government, but he made it plain in
the comparison he drew between the
repairs going on at the White House
and Government itself.
Every once in a while whether it
be a human structure, things made
with hands, or things created by gov
eminent, we have to make repairs"
he said. Back in President Coolidges
time the White House roof leaked. It
was quiet dangerous, because the
water had rotted some Of the beams.
It must be remembered that the
White House dated back as far as
1896. 1t is one of the most historical
buildings in the United States and
it will remain as one of our most his
torical buildings, but every once in a
while repairs must be made. But with
all these repairs it has remained the
same White House, the same archi-
lecture, the same dignity and the
same beauty"
Vetoes Seven Bills.
The speech was made in front OF
the house Of Moses Smith, Mr.. Roose-
velt's tenant farmer. The Presidents
mother, Mrs. James Roosevelt, and his
sister-in-law, Mrs. John Roosevelt.
and his youngest son, John, motored
with him from the Roosevelt home to
the gathering
Mr.. Roosevelt yesterday vetoed seven
more bills. Six would have added to
the pension rolls Of the Civil War.
The President conferred today with
Postmaster General Farley. 1t is the
first time he has seen Farley since he
returned from the Hawaiian Islands.
Farley arrived at Hide Park with
Mayor Kelly Of Chicago, who came to
see the President about work relief
projects.
Others visiting at the Hyde Park
estate were Vincent DAILY, head of
the H. o. L. c. in New York, one
of Farley's principal lieutenants in
New York City, and Robert Jackson,
counsel for the Internal Revenue d.
vision Of the Treasury Department
Despite the political stripes worn by
those in this group, the President
insisted, while talking to the press
in advance of their visit. that their
coming had no political significance.

Suspicious of American officials were
aroused because the Commerce De-
partment checked up on Ethiopian
mining prospects only about two weeks
ago. Its official report indicated that
If Halle SelasSie has found any oil
prospects worth 60 cents, he has kept
them the biggest secret in the world.
Also, If there are any huge prof.
its to be made. no one yet suspects
1t Sdue the King OF kings and the
British promoter who offered the
suggestion.
The Commerce Department learned
that there have never before been re-
ports of oil IN Ethiopia and that no
real survey has ever been made of
its mineral deposits. 1t sums up the
mining possibilities in one sentence:
Little exploitation and no accu-
rate data on resources; potash, gold
and platinum irregularly produced in
small quantities"
Diplomatic "Oil."
For these and other reasons. officials
here will tell you off-the-record that
the Selassie- British promoters appear
to be prospecting more in oil of the
diplomatic kind than in petroleum
They will also tell you the Securities
and Exchange Commission would not
permit sale of stock to American in
vestors unless Selassie gets up bet
ter prospectus. Likewise, they sus-
pect that the reaon the details have
been kept secret Is that there are no
details.
Whether they are right about that
or not, they advise tongue-in-the-
cheek reading of European promotion
material from now on.
Roosevelt Keeps Formula.
President Roosevelt seems to be
clinging to his old recipe In making re-
cent official appointments If you
analyze the background of men named
to the two recently appointed boards
(social security and labor you will
find that his formula is one part prac-
tical, one part brain trust and dash
of politics.

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
Old Propagandists See
Marks of Trade in
Ethiopian News.
BY PAUL MALLON.

~ LID hands at the propaganda
game here believe they have
I noted excellent marks OF
~ their trade hidden in some
of the news from Europe.
The brazen Ethiopian effort to in
volve the United States by oil conces-
sions did not particularly draw their
admiration. 1t was too obvious to be
good. What caught their fancy was
the adroitly magnifying and insinuat-
ing reactions prepared for American
eyes in the capitals Of Europe.
For instance, one OF the best
knoUn American journalists abroad
iWote the other day about 'the
great profit" Which t0iH ensue "to
UhateUer nationals are inuolued in
the DEAL" meaning, OF course. the
United States.
Another yarn from the Ethiopian
capital called it "a $6o,o0o,ooo deal"
meaning that the promoters were 60
ing to spend that preposterous amount
of money in search of Ethiopian oil.
That kind of lure for American fish
(say the United States propagandists)
Is worthy of favorable comparison with
the best bait manufactured abroad to
hook the United States into the World
War.

Steps in Curing Underweight

l. The removal of any infection
which may mean examination by
physician and dentist.
.. The building up of the body by
the use of rich nourishing foods
such as butter, cream, bacon, milk,
eggs, meat, sugar, cocoa.
3. The use of an abdominal sup,
port at the beginning of the build
ing up process, as this not only
holds the organs up in position, but
gives the thin individual some gen.
eral support, thus enabling him
to be up and about more. This be-
ing able to be about more is help
full to the mind also.
4. Rest. Sometimes this means
4 complete rest for few weeks, but
for the majority where possible a
half hours rest morning aud aft
ernOon may be sufficient.

It's of thought-get away from theii
worries and fears. This will I'M
prove their outlook on life.
From the food standpoint these
individuals must follow the opposite
course to those who are trying to
reduce weight. Overweights eat
plenty of meat and eggs but cut
down on fats and starch foods. I'm
derweights while cutting down
slightly on meats, must greatly In
crease their fat and starch foods
The fat foods are butter. cream, fat
meat. The starch foods are bread
potatoes, sugars, pastry.
Doctor McCollum point out that
the all-round diet is necessary-as
more than fat on the body is need
ed for health.
Another point emphasized is rest
Rest is equal to food in maintain
ing and increasing weight. Some
times rest alone is sufficient to
bring on a satisfactory increase in
weight. These thin nervous indi-
viduals are usually so active that
unless they are actually lying down
they seem to be always moving
about.
Thus the thin Individual who
would store more fat must INCLUDE
in his program resolution to keer
himself calm, and cut down his ply
steal activity to the lowest possible
point. If he can get to the place
where he is willing to let others dc
some of his work, and take on some
of his responsibility-that is if he
can become carefree-he is we'll or
his way toward an increase in
weight.
However, all underweight is not
huC w liCl NONSAlCcOg vi " a
tendency to thinneSS, but may be
due to what is called focal infec-
tion; that is where an infection ir
one part of the body may affect
some other organ or may affect the
body as a whole. Thus infected ton
sils, infected teeth, infected sinuSes
infected gall bladder may be so un-
dermining the system that loss of
weight naturally follows. This
means then that an examination by
the doctor and dentist should be
the first thought when there is
tiredness and underweight.
when one wants to increase
weight it is wise to plan the menus
so that both salads and leafy veg
etables find a prominent place In
them. About One-Quarter to one
fifth more food than usual should
be eaten so that If rest is also TAX
en- this extra amount of food may
be stored in the body in the form
of fat"
