THE VARIETY OF GOODS

sufficient, by a little shopping
around, to satisfy the needs of
most families. Merchants are
glad to order for customers what
'hCy do not have in stock.
There is little excuse for out
of-town shopping. The fascination
is greater but the savings are not
as significant as they are often
represented as being.
BUYING AT HOME KEEPS

longer than when sent directly
out-of-town with little hope of
ever running it down and bring

A PERSON WITH HOME
town pride and loyalty isn't both
cred much with the temptation to
buy out-of-town. The lover of his
home community want9 to see it
given every opportunity to make

Let's trade at home and find
joy in so doing.

New evidence on American Tele-

today by the Federal Communications
Commission.
Meantime, investigators searched
A. T. g. T. records in New York In
an effort to gather additional mate

inquiry into the vast utility. Hearings
were recessed yesterday until April IA.
Recently, Samuel Becker. F. c. c.

tivities in leasing lines to services sup
plying racing information.
He charged that many subscribers
to such services were gamblers and
pool room operators"
In a letter today, T. G. Miller, an
A. T. & T. vice president, informed
Becker that total charges of this
company for private lines services fur
nished to customers whose business is
understood to be the dissemination

A hope that the Communications

STEEL QUIZ RINGS
PROSPERITY NOTE
Two Barons Fear Change in
Price System Would End
1t, However.
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
Senators considering the tnvalida-
ton of current methods of setting the
delivery price of steel today had the
story of two baronS of the industry
that approaching prosperity would be
frightened away by the change.
To members of the Interstate Com
merce Committee hearing testimony
on the Wheeler bill ending the baS-
ing-point system, Eugene G. Grace,
president of the Bethlehem Steel
Corp, said the outlook is encourag-
ing"
w. A. Irwin president of the United
States Steel Corp, added to this pros
perity note at yesterdays hearing by
saying the industry ought to keep
going for the next couple of months,
at least. as well as we are now"
The basing- point system adds trans
portation charges from any given base
point to the production COST Grace,
who is also president of the American
Iron and Steel Institute, said its elm
anation would cause disruption and
widespread dislocation for the steel
industry"
Billing Prices Lowered Sl1.
He added: Efforts to paint the
basing-point method as a device to
fix and hold steel prices at artif1cially
high levels are without foundation.
AS recall the record of the Bethle-
hem Steel Corp, the average billing
prices of steel decreased $l1 ton
from 1923 to 1885. This substantial
decline was made possible by reduc-
tions in cost resulting from economies
and increased efficiency.
''All the benefits from lower costs
have been passed on to the buyers of
steel in lower prices. None of the
savings was at the expense of labor.
The hourly wage rate for our en-
ployes today is from to per cent
higher than in 1929"
In his testimony he conceded that
the Bethlehem Corp. may not be-
following the principle of a Federal
Trade Commission order issued in
1924 which directed United States
Steel to desist from the pittsburgh
plus" price fixing system.
Pittsburgh Sole Base Point.
Under that system Pittsburgh was
the sole base point. Wheeler read of
a section in the order, issuance Of
which caused establishment of multi
pie base points. decreeing that only
production points be, used as basing
points.
DO you feel you are complying
with the order of the Federal Trade
Commission at the present time?" he
asked.
1--WE think So" said Grace.
do you make sheets at Sparrow's
Point. Md?"
"Yes."
"Is that a basing point?"
''No The production is not impor-
tant enough"
Wheeler then suggested Bethlehem
was not complying with the ruling.
IF that is the case, under that
Interpretation, we may not be COM
plying"

After dinner, Dulce and Lucia sep
arated to do their respective packing,
agreeing to retire early and meet
promptly the next morning. Later
Lucia. closing her trunk, had sudden
hunch and hurried to Dulce's state
room.
1t was empty - the ungrateful
little idiot had slipped up to meet
Reilly after the concert! In a not
quite self-contained rage, Lucia re-
turned to her stateroom, rummaged
for an evening dress, jabbed at her
nose with a powder puff. and hurried
up to the lounge.
The room reverberated with a
Brahms concerto Reilly was playing
ardently for the usual reverent throng.
Instantly, Lucia spied the familiar
cluster of curls that was Dulce's Golf
fure. She pounced on her, giving her
soft elbow a yank.
Dulce blushed, twisted out of her
grasp. Il might have known you'd be
watching me! You're jealousr'
Lucia longed to box her ears. While
Reilly played on, unaware of the
polite struggle going on behind him.
she whispered, do you think I've
enjoyed my hawk-like vigil? l pulled
you out of one mess, my lovely, and
you're going to stay out. Come quietly,
please"
Dulce came, but not quietly. She
muttered rebelliously as Lucia led her
to her stateroom and solemnly handed
her nightgown. She kicked her eve
ming slippers petulantly across the floor
and began to undress.
Lucia regarded her with annoyance.
Then. softening, she bent over and
impulsively kissed Dulce's childish
forehead.
"Oh, be reasonable, darling" she
said lightly.

charm!'
And so am /" cried Lucia, stamp
ing out her cigarette and rising.
Reilly rose, too, putting his hands on
the table and leaning on them as if
he needed support
Lucia - before you go must re-
mind you that love you"
She looked away from the entreaty
in his eyes, stared fxedly at the bald
head OF gentleman at the bar.
And may | remind you that your
unstable emotions are of no interest
to me? Lucia turned and stalked out
of the bar, about to return to her own
stateroom. Then she remembered
Dulce. Something prodded at her
heart insistently and suggested, IT'S
up to you to look after her." Grimly,
she sought Dulce's stateroom, raped
on the door.
Dulce opened it, teary-eyed Lucia
decided stern treatment would be
most effective.
Pull yourself together" she COM
manded You don't see me crying,
do you? And let me tell you | have
better right"
Go away" Dulce's voice was
bitter.
Lucia closed the door behind her,
led Dulce to a chair, and bathed her
eyes.
Nov listen, Child of Tragedy, "
she said. Men like Reilly have no
sympathy for raw emotion. A girl
must learn to be good company under
any circumstances - or withdraw
from the picture"
But l can't be good company -
l can't!"
well, I'm not exactly up to the
effort myself" Lucia admitted drily.
We'll just have to avoid him, that's
ALL"
Thereafter, she took Dulce under
her wing. They evaded Reilly by din
ing at questionable hours, usually
dodging back to their staterooms to
read or knit. He had far too much
