Davis Ayreforth lay awake In the
dark, with his wife asleep In the bed
beside his. He was not happy; and
he was trying to figure out what he
could do differently In order to make
Bee admire him.
She still loved him, he believed, for
her let 1t be proof of love that his
wife physically did nothing, In respect
to another man. to which he could take
exception. and that Bee continued
without ompialnt-indeed, only too
complalsantly--to be his wife.
So Davis said to himself. "She
loves me. she loves me. . But she
admires Jeb more ~. She doesn't
admire me at all.
TITS because Jeb Is making so much
money" Davis argued with himself.
Money Is all Jeb has that | haven't

herself, or for me or for the boys. But
she wants me to make more money.

Humorous Mistake


Failure OF the Democrats at Phil
adelphia to make any statement
answering the demand OF the Re
publicans at Cleveland that the
special power given the President
to mark down still further the gold
value of the dollar be revoked,
was not an oversight.
Senator Robert j. Buckley OF
Ohio, one OF the leading Capitol
Hill experts on currency, pointed
out to members OF the resolutions
committee, when this matter was
under advisement, that the Repub-
Leans had made rather humorous
mistake. The special power which
the President still has, which would
permit him to mark down the gold
value of the dollar to one half its
original value, along with the pow
er to issue paper currency, or to
adopt bimetalism, expires by linn
itation just few days after in
augurationl
So that, Senator Buckley pointed
out, to demand its repeal by a
congress which does not come in
to power until few days before
that-nothing like sufficient time
to put such an important measure
through the house and senate-ls
rather in the nature of futile
gesture. .4,.a,.,-
Even, the senator pointed out, In
what Democrats regard as the UNI
likely contingency that the Repub-
leans capture the Presidency and
the house, there is no possible
chance Of their obtaining control
Of the senate for four more years.
So even If there were Republi-
can landslide they could not re-
peal the provisions against the will
of the Democrats.

CarterEield'
FAMOUS WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT

Washington. - President Roose-
velt is enormously pleased with the
general reception of his accept
ance speech at Philadelphia.
Those who must support him for
party regularity reasons but who
have been hoping he would be more
conservative if reelected - the
group following Senators Glass,
Byrd, Tydings and Adams-are
distressed. And the radical fringe
is delighted,
The thought of comparing the
New Deal fight against capital
against investments, If you please
to the fight of the colonists
against British royal domination
came to the President almost at
the last moment. He did not pre-
pare his speech much in advance,
and it is pretty nearly an acct
dent that he took this particular
tack.
It all grew out of the fuss and
furore that was kicked up when
announcement was made, q little
more than a month ago, that the
President would make his trip to
Texas and other states at time
when the Republican national con-
vention would be in progress. It
was charged he was trying to steal
the conventions publicity, to de-
prive It of its normal share OF
front page newspaper display, not
to mention radio broadcasting and
newspaper picture sections.
So he announced that on that
trip he would make historical
talks going into the history OF
the sections he visited.
He not only did, but found some
very adroit ways Of working good
political arguments into them.
Even Went Further
But the conservative Democrats
are very unhappy as a result. For,
once embracing that theme, the
President went q great deal fur
Their, by inference, than he has ev-
er gone before. Just as, in the
platform, which Of course he die
tated, he went a great deal fur
Their with regard to IVA than he

rural populations. 1t was said.
It was proposed that definite per-
centages of general revenues be al
located to health work and that the
revenues so allocated be approximately
81 per capita in United States cur
rency.
Other recommendations included:
Campaigns for the prevention Of
accidents, better working conditions,
especially with respect to light and
ventilation in industry; further de-
velopment Of free maternal and child
welfare centers, special attention to
the education of women, special
studies of life in nigh attitudes. as

Already $3,333,000 has been allo-

Lots of people have wanted tile
baths for Q long time and haven't had
them because they thought it would
be terribly difhcult and messy job
to install the tile with its plaster base.
In the past it has been pretty
unpleasant business. but a we'll
known architect has come to the res
cue with an invention that makes the
installation a very simple operation.
First of all metal strips of cad
MUM plated steel or bronze are
nailed or screwed directly to the fin
ished or rough surface which is to be
covered with tile. Vertical studs are
placed this way. then horizontal
strips of the same material are
locked into notches on the studs.
They need only be plumbed to the fin
ished wan surface.
After the area has been covered
with this grid-like structure glazed
tiles are snapped into place on these
supports. The tiles are available in
standard sizes. and wide range of
colors. The joints are filled with a
mastic or cement grout which will
allow for expansion and contraction,
and permit the installation to settle
properly.
The appearance of this tile surface
is identical with that Of ordinary con-
struction, as no metal shows and
standard wall accessories like towel
bars and soap holders can be at
tached very easily.
At the present time this method Of
construction is being used only with
tile, but other wall materials will be
applicable in the near future.
II you have done without tile bath
because you have a short-term lease
and. didn't want to make any drastic
Improvements, this system will FIX
you up beautifully.
II you should install this tile then
find you have to move you can take
down the entire wall covering, tiles,
supporting strips, etc, and erect them
again in your new home.
With the ordinary tile wall it isn't
so easy TO get at pipes or electrical

ARCHITECTS SPUR
HOUSE BUILDING
Institute Forms Bureaus to
Help Construct Small
Homes.

A significant development Is row
under way that will create favorable
impetus to the smali-home markct,
according to r. H. Shreve, of New
York, chairman of the committee on
housing OF the American Institute
Of Architects.
The institute has recognized the
necessity of the architect entering
the low-priced home field apd. in
order to make their services available
for the small home builder, bureaus
have been established In various cities
under its auspices. Where organized,
these bureaus, comprising institute
members, will furnish working draw
ings and specifications, together with
supervision, at q very nominal sum
well within the means of the pros
pective home owner. This does not
mean that home styles and designs
are to be regimented. but higher
standards of design will result from
this arrangement through the service
of experienced architects whose men,
berships IN the institute are indicative
Of their qualifications.
Alive to Possibilities.
Manufacturers are keenly alive, "
he continued, Ito the possibilities
open to them in the small home field,
and they are pointing to production
Of materials for small homes and
are concentrating on the Importance
of design in materials. They have
realized that there is a greater mar
ket today for materials that are ar
