SCOOP CAUSED
WHITE HOUSE
PH0T0CURB
By EARL GOODWIN

W0lCe House O1IlclhlS are pun
ting different slant on the now
famous order concerning photo
graphs of the President. Their In
depreciation is that the order was
the result of a scoop" which a
photographer obtained in getting
an unauthorized picture and then
giving it a caption which the
White House says was misleading.
According to this version, the
President acceded to insiStent all
day demands for news photographs
on his birthday and consequently
the entire coterie Of White House
news photographers went into his
office and "Shot" photographs
with flashlight Accomplishments
for fully is minutes, obtaining
nearly hundred pictures.
Got Scoop Picture
Bright flashlights for IS min
utes are rather wearying, so at
the end of that period, the Presi-
dent is said to have glanced at his
assistant secretary, Stephen T.
Early, who gave cease firing"
order. According to the story, all
photographers except one &C
ceded; this one shot flaShlight
and took the Presidents picture
as the Chief Executive was about
to remove his glasses.
That being a different picture
from the others, it was looked on
as a scoop. Further, according to
the White House version, this pic
ture was given a caption and
description which was misleading
and creating a stir in the news
photographers business because
it was sold widely as a scoop.
Still relating the White House
version, photographers who had
been thus Scooped because they
followed the White House tradi-
ton and obeyed the rules, pro-
tested that they had been scooped
simply because one Of their num-
Der had not played the game the
way they played it.
Photographers Asked Curb
It was from the photographers
themselves, the White House
people say, that the suggestion
came to limit further photographs
Of the President to a uniform per-
formance-all photographers to
erect their tripods and take stimuli
taneous pictures-and no scoops.
According to the White House,
the effort is made to give all news
papers, all reporters, all photog-
rapherS the same break; and
the White House plays no favor
ties. All news from the President
himself comes either from the
back-and-forth questions and
answers at the Presidents press
conferences twice q week, or from
statements issued by the PreSi-
dent or his assistant secretary. In
dividual queries on special or local
topics are answered by Mr. Early
to the best of his ability.
Scoops Prohibited
It is understood that no news
paper interviewer who has bust
ness with the President on rare
occasions and stays behind to talk
to the President, after press con.
ference, is privileged to get scoop
on his fellow workers; and the
White House attitude is that the
picture which caused the recent
ruckus is in the nature of an un-
ethical scoop.
Pictures of the President that
may be taken outside the White
House, at meetings, conventions,
etc., will of course be the result of
an every man for himself" policy,
with the Presidents Secretariat
and Secret Service men holding it
down to a reasonable basis. But,
for the time being, pictures taken
in the White House offices will be
subject to rules and will be uni
form.

Attorney General Edward J. Daly Oi Hartford, bitterly opposed those wko used the flag for their own personal or political advancement. stating that in this state there are lows which prevent the use of Old Glory for commercial purposes but Unfortunately these statutes have no reference to alleged patriotic Ser- vices. When used properly, MT. Daly said, that the flag stands as an in- spiration to all that is noble and patriotic, but 1t Is reprehensible that political orators travel up and down the country, hiding their true vir- tues behind the stars and stripes and holding themselves to be the savlours of American independence. 9 EIlks' Tribute gg
 N Lieutenant Colonel William J. Shanahan paid The Elks' Tribute to the Flag, citing the policies of the Eiks club each year in paying due respect to the national colors which are then presented to some patri- Otic organization. Lieut.. Col. Shan ahan's inspiring tribute told of the places which the flag has flown in the past history of the United States. Perhaps one of the greatest tributes was the declaration that 1t is flag that will never surrender.

Gain
Loosening Purse
Strings Of Public

New York-The spending pub
lies confidence has been substanti-
ally repaired and its purse strings
loosened by rising employment and
pay rolls in the last three years,
says the Standard Statistics Com
pany in a survey of current changes
in spending habits.
A sharp contraction in personal
expenditures was noted during the
depression; even those factory,
store and office workers who were
still employed, farmers who were
making money, and individuals
whose incomes had not ceased were
apprehensive to the future, and
inclined to hold on to what they
had, the analysis reveals. With the
trend Of income now reversed, and
rising pay rolls, farm revenues and
, security prices, and munificent
government, providing additional
cash income, greater confidence has
inspired more liberal spending poll
cies.
Most CONSPICUOUS has been the
reversal of the trend away from
high-priced cars and toward those
in the lowest price grouping. In
1884, about IS per cent of all auto
mobiles sold carried wholesale
price of $500 Or less-correspond-
ing to a retail price of about 5000.
In 1885, the proportion iii the
lowest price class was reduced to
about So per cent, and further
moderate extension of the trend has
been noted so far this year.
Sales of such products as vacuum
cleaners, ironing machines, washing
machines, radios, electric refrigera-
tors, furniture and rugs and car
pets have been showing steady
gains since 1882. Sales of vacuum
cleaners for 1885, for instance, were
more than double the 1892 figure.
Since these are semi luxury items,
rather than necessities, there is
definite tendency to delay purchase
when curtailment of income is
feared.
Motion picture theater attend
ance is running some IS per cent
above last year. European travel
increased 8 per cent last year, and
reservations to date indicate an in
crease of perhaps 20 per cent more
this year.
Airplane passenger miles rose &c
