and every sally of the senator from Clay
evoked a volley of noes and gales od
laughter. He produced another letter
pleading for higher license fees. It was
from a successful physician on his way
to California for vacation. He waved
still another letter asking for higher
fees. That one was from tired bust
ness man who frolics each year in
Europe. After each letter Senator
Stiening repeated his inquiry Shall
vote for such thing?" and leveled the
appealing finger again at his colleagues
who roared mo" for him.
Whereupon the roll was called and
there We're some 40 noes" and less than
20 "ayes" for higher licenses.
The House and Senate played battle
dore and stuttlecock with the motor We
hicle license issue in 1888 for a good
many weeks. There is a prospect that
the two bodies will be deadlocked over
the same issue for some time this seS-
sion. The House has voted to keep the
same minimum rates that have pre-
vailed during the last two years but to
tax other cars at the original "a per
cent rate, an estimated tapping of the
motor vehicle owners pocket-book to
the extent of s1,300OO0. The Senate
has voted to continue the low rates OF
the last two years. The issue now goes
to conference, where it was for so long
two years ago.
The arguments advanced for higher
motor vehicle license rates are that the
highway department urgently needs the
money, that Minnesota will lose the fed
eral grant of So, 100000 unless it is able
to match that amount with highway
funds for construction purposes, and
that the loss of this money and the in
ability to carry on construction will de-
feat the employment of several thous-
and persons. The arguments in favor
of the low rates that have prevailed
the last two years are that in any event
Minnesota will lose, under the federal
statute. only one-third of the S., 500 .00C
federal grant, that this tax reduction
is the only tax reduction which the
present legislature will be able to grant

that the people generally desire the
rates of the last two years to continue
Added to these arguments is a reluc-
lance to grant additional funds to a
department whose activities are SC
tainted with politics.
Almost from the very beginning of the
discussion of this matter back in 1898
it has been a political issue. Other
factors, like road contractors, have a
finger in the pie but politics has both
hands in it.
Lest We forget, turn back the Legis-
lative pages to the winter of 1888. The
House that year was dominated by the
Farmer-Labor party. The members OF
the Motor Vehicle committee, fresh
from their constituents, met twenty
three strong to consider the reduction
of the motor vehicle license tax, a re-
duction vociferouSly demanded by the
people back home. The committee
voted twenty-three strong to make g
vigorous slash in the tax. Twenty-three
members of the committee made q
speeches. They were emphatic speeches
they were fervid and some of them were
florid, they were all of one accord-the
people were demanding and the people
must have a reduction in their motor
vehicle tax Enthusiastically and IN

Although I am bear on met perature in living rooms, offices, stores and conveyanoes like com fort as well as the next old geezer does. only I'm fussy about it. I want mine pure and unadulter- ated.
 There is a great deal in .habit in the matter of regulating the tenn pertaure when artificial heating is in use. Most persons may accus- tom themselves to a hygienic tenn perature-say 65 degrees Eff they will, so that such a tempera- ture will be quite comfortable. On the other hand great many cod de themselves or submit without resistance to coddling and this Ill time render them abnormally sen sitive to cold, and when say cold, I don't mean illness. The atmos- phere or environment must inevit- ably have an influence upon met abolism. Unbiased investigators know from experience that it is better to keep cool and well than it is to keep good and warm.
 From the hygienic viewpoint eIectrlclly IS luedl loT CoohiHS, oc cause where there is no combus- tion there is no chance of pollu- tion of the air with harmful com bustion products. In my opinion coal or wood stoves are always fit- ted with stovepipe to carry the combustion products up the chim- ney or out of the house. Still dis regarding the factors of cost, con- venience and efficiency, place gas, oil and gasoline stoves, ranges or hot plates lowest in the list, be-

cause there is usually considerable pollution of the air of the kitchen by combustion products where these fuels are used.
 Kitchens, even in modern houses. are too often poorly planned and poorly equipped from the hygien- ic viewpoint, even when they are elaborate1y fitted with pretty gad- gets. The lighting is generally good, but the ventilation-oh, my!
 Even if no deadly carbon mon oxide escapes into the kitchen from leaky gas fittings or from faulty stove pipe or f1ue, the posior may be generated where an ac- emulation of soot becomes red hot or where a flame strikes cold metal surface such as the bottom of pot or pan or tea-kettle where the flame is too high. This unburned monoxide escapes into the air and mere trace of it in the air breathed for a considerable time is injurious to health.
 Every cookstove should have a hood over it and vent at the peak of the hood through which dangerous or injurious combustion products may escape as well as the odors of cooking. If the vent at the peak of the hood has to carry far or if it does not pass straight up through the roof, it should be fitted with an exhaust fan to maintain the outward draft.
 Housewives working in kitchens not provided with these essentials should insist on keeping a window and door or two window or two doors open whenever fuel is burn-

Bold Prints Are Height Of Fashion-For Tall WoIneI
Striking Color Effects
 Arc Made Possible

evening dress needs these factors to hold it's own with the more sumptuous fabrics set aside for formal wear. I have used a great deal of light navy and light blue grounds with touches of scar let, or a nulti-colored print on a black ground, the de- signs giving one the impress sion of great splashes of color or immense bouquets of flow CTS thrown on the background in a haphazard way.
 For the smaller woman there are smaller designs but the general impression is the same. Here the general line should be unbroken and slim to avoid the impression of width at any point of the figure.
 Cut Out
 Flowers
 I like the use of cut-out flowers of the design to un- derline a hem, sleeves or de- collete. There is one afternoon dress of black and white print in my collection where the sleeves are entirely fashioned of the large daisy pattern of the print, the petals fiuttering with every movement of the arms.
 Another chiffon evening dress with a sweet pea design has sprays of the flowers cut out and superimposed on the design all over the skirt. The effect is delightfully."- airy and almost ethereal.

Large Patterns Tend To
 Dzca1f Small Figures
By JEAN PATOU Written for NEA Service

DARIS-I I think that prints T should figure in every ele- gant woman's wardrobe. Far from lacking personality, q printed dress can enhance the wearer's personality, pro- vided, of course, it is the right design and color combi- nation.
 This season I have favored bold, dashing patterns in pre- ference to the more conven- tional designs. They are more difficult to handle, but the re- suit is infinitely more strik- ing. On the other hand, only the tall, slender woman can wear these bold patterns, as, far from lending height, they are inclined to make the fig ure look shorter.
 White
 Contrast
 For day wear, black and white or navy and white are by far the smartest. A touch of white at the neck, at the waist or sleev.s s is usually in- troduced to underline a detail of cut. One point which should always be borne in mind is that simplicity is the basic theme on which every printed dress should be built, the fabric carrying all the fantasy required whether the model is destined for evening or afternoon wear.
 For evening wear I like daring color combinations and unusual designs. The printed

opinion that thousands of dollars
in fees which legally belong to con-

here between two groups of justices
of the peace.
Justice of the Peace Bernard

Bankers Are Doubtful

By United Press
NEW YORK, Nov. 3O.-A major
ity of interviewable men groupable
in President Roosevelt's classified
ton of Great Wall Street bankers
expressed doubt today that the ma
tional debt could safely go to S70,-
000,000,000, as the President said in
his Atlanta address yesterday bank
ers had assured him.
Conversation with several bank
ers indicated they had formulated
no idea of how high the national
debt might go without impalring
national credit. None wished to be
quoted on a problem which they re-
garded as more academic and po-
litical than material
None challenged Mr. Roosevelt S
statement arbitrarily, but several
said they could not understand the
reasoning that would consider a per
capita national debt of almost 5000
