QUITE TRYING
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear MISS Fairfax:
II met . nice young man and
we went out together for q few
weeks. I like him q lot and he said
he liked me. But one night about
. week ago we went out with an
other couple, and they had words
and quarreled with each other.
And ever since that night, my
friend hasn't spoken to me.
"NOw am writing to you to ask
II you can offer some explanation
Of this, as neither Of us had any
thing to do with their quarrel.
IN"
The young man probably asso-
ciateS you in his mind with a high
ly unpleasant experience. A -four
some" with one couple quarreling
must have been pretty trying. If
he's a reasonable human being, I
can't see why he's taking it out on
you, as you tell me you had moth
ing to do with it.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Sept. g IT Tie crowds about the pig studio yates in Culver City are larger now adays, and gather earlier. Inside the lot there is a new air of cur ious expectancy, and occasionally a twittery stenographer or office sirl or waitress exclaims proudly and excitedly: Guess what! I sew her today. Tel" Studio guides escorting visitors pass by one stage and whisper, almost reverently. Sorry, this one is closed.'
 All of which means that Greta Garbo is back at work Stage 2l is sacred, for there Camille" is in the throes. From within come bull letins on progress and events-no- tably, as fitting sequel to the fact that Garbo's Camille had met Rob- ert Taylor's Armand, that recent one about Taylor's rescue of Garbo from peril on the set.
 Must Not Stare
 It is etiquette on the lot that one does not stare at Garbo. One glance covertly, or looks the other way as she approaches. One must not embarrass Garbo, ever. And yet, when it comes time for her closed car to draw up before the. door of Stage 21, there is usually an un- common number of workers who find themselves with urgent busi- ness in the vicinity.
 The other day young woman in makeup, garbed in early American costume, stood near the stage en- trance with the others. She was due on her own set at 9, but she

Selling ''Ice-boses'' in Alaska
 Is No Joke; Juneau Estimated
 to Haue ! 900 Refrigerators

When the boys that sell things down in the States get together again at St. Louis, Mo.,-or maybe its Atlantic City-they1l have to invent some new way of singing the praises of their Number One Man
 For years it has been the custom among salesmen, whenever they wanted to let all know that some brother stood at the head of the class, to say: Why, that man could sell ice-boxes in Alaska!"
 That's going to be pretty lame commendation after Juneau gets through telling the world a few things about the sale of refrigera- tors.
 Juneau Has Record
 For if there are not more elec- tric refrigerators per thousand fam lilies in Juneau today than in any other city in the world, the men that have been installing them hereabouts want to know what city has the record, so they can knock it over.
 According to the consensus of both w. P. Johnson-not infre- quently called "Frigidaire" John son-and w. s. Pullen, of the AL aska Electric Light and Power Company, there are more than l. 900 electric refrigerators now in service in the Juneau district. And the most optimistic Juneau booster hardly estimates more than 1000 residences.
 The interesting feature of this is that far from nearing what might seem to be a .'saturation point" the sale of these units has been stead fly building up to stride that in- dicates Juneau has only begun to get cold storage. It looks like the score is going close to 100 per cent some of these years. That is why Messrs. Johnson and Pullen have been wondering what section of America does claim to be most in tensively cooled" for if Juneau is not already at the top of the list, there seems little doubt that such honors are only a matter of time.
 Back in 'TtDenty-Sir
 When I first ordered electric re- frigerators in Juneau-back in 1926" MT. Pellen said, T thought maybe there was market for half dozen or so. A short time later I tried one myself, and it worked out so well that we started selling them, and the installations since that time have gone beyond any esti- mates either of us could have made"
 MT. Pullen states that every cus- toner that buys an electric stove also wants a refrigerator. Every new apartment starts with both asI regular equipment, and practically all of the older residences that areI

DEMONSTRATED ABROAD, TOO
 War ended slavery but many a Southerner will tell you that the position of the Nero in the rural South is one of almost complete de- pendency upon the white laldhold- CT, who often provides him ca bin, bit of garden land and a trickle of money in return for his periodic labor in the cotton fields
 What now will be the effect of the machine cotton picker if it proves to be as successful as these early tests indicate? Will perpet- ual relief be the fare of the dis placed Neroes as well as the share cropper whites cut off from live lihood?
 Cries for suppression of the inven- ton seem like beating the kettle to scare off the devils. The inven- ton is here. Not only is it here, but it is abroad, being demonstra- ed in Russia.

LOOMS AS BIG PROBLEM

Economists challenge anyone to show that labor saving inventions ever brought permanent disaster to any people. But it is hard to see how the next dozen national ad- mlnistrations can escape the tre- mendous task of preparing several million Southern laborers to take up tasks perhaps far removed from the picking of cotton at which they have been employed for generations.
 John and Mack Rust's invention may knock $10 to s20 a bale off the cost of putting on the market a bale of cotton now worth around s60. If that proves true it will dis. place hand picking just as the me- chanical harvester displaced the sickle and the cradle in the wheat field

New Invention Puts Economists
 to Thinking Task

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-Many thoughtful social econmists will wa ger that 1886 will be remembered less by the election or defeat of Roosevelt or Landon or the schism in the American Federation of La Dor than by the demonstration at Stoneville, Miss. 0i a mechanical cotton picker-that worked.
 Single inventions have in times past wrought revolutionary social changes The factory system, for instance, gained great impetus by development of the steam engine
 But the effect of the cotton pick CT, like the effect of the cotton gin, seems destined to be felt heavier in the Southern States than any where.
 Tn the South are concentrated the several millions of Negroes who have been major factor in the cotton industry since it's beginning. They have supplied the cheap labor that matched the climatic and soil conditions to make 8 cotton pro- ducing center unrivaled elsewhere.
 In the years immediately before and after the revolutionary war the slavery question was heading toward a solution. Cotton was not then the tremendous crop it later became. Even with slave labor the cost of separating seed and fiber by hand was tremendous Then came the cotton gin invention in 1793 which, one historian said, fixed the insti-

 T like to see Garbo once ln a while, she said, and hadn't had a glimpse of her in nearly a year I know it sounds trite, but she is always an inspiration.
 T saw her car coming, and then I became nervous, tried to hide my excitement, but I was afraid it would show in my face. I held a newspaper before my face-and when I took it down sine was in side. I had missed again!'
 Vcry Moods Make Netos
 It is an odd commentary on Gar Do that other stars-many of them more potent than sfG at the box oftice-are as interested and cur ious about Garbo as visiting movie fans. One player will tell you that she knows Garbo's shyness to be real and painful and not an "act", an- other will wonder if the famed Gar 20 eluSiveness is not tinged with business sagacity, but all are inter ested, very politely, to be sure.
 And the bulletins continue Car Do is merrier these days; or Garbo has overcome shyness to the extent that she lets extras watch her re- hearse; or Garbo has invited Basil Rathbone, her Karenin of Anna Karenina, to visit on her set, ct cetera.
 To all of which the ready So what?" is not sufficient answer for Garbo remains the only movie actress whose very moods make News.

Cows in Alaska
 Give More Milk
 on FishnleaI Diet

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Sept. B. Every day is Friday to University Farm milch COWS in which Supt. Joseph T. Flakne is experimenting with a fishmeal diet
 His preliminary report recom- mending more thorough and exten- sive tests, said experiments so far with half ton of Prince William Sound fishmeal, commonly used as fertilizer, were very satisfactory" and tend to prove that "fishmeal would be a very helpful addition to any dairy or stock feeding ra- ton"
 He said milk flow increased but there was little change in butter fat production, under fishmeal tests. It gave no appreciable odor or fishy flavor to the milk.
 "A very satisfactory balanced food seemed to be all the mixed hay each animal would clean up, plus a grain mixture in proportion to the amount of milk given by each COW. Our experience was that, at first, the cows would not eat the fish meal, but that most of the cows ac- quired taste for it and several of them will eat the pure fishmeal by itself"
 Flaknes grain mixture contains 100 pounds of ground oats, 100 pounds of ground barley, 20 pounds of linseed meal and 20 pounds of fishmeal.
 It was fed before and after milk ing and increased milk production 5 to 10 per cent, he reported.

ever, outdoor coolers are subject to sudden freezes in winter, and the spoilage resulting from this has discouraged most persons from us- ing these coolers. All of the latest homes in this section are either steam heated, or have oil burners, and the efficiency of these has made indoor food lockers impracti- cal, so that while an average fam fly in Seattle or Bellingham might do without a refrigerator in win ter, the Juneau family must de- pend upon refrigeration

being advertised also go in for com- plete electric equipment.
 In addition to the installations by Johnson, who handles "Frigidaire'' and the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company the General Elec- tric machines as well as some Westinghouse, number of other firms have recently entered this field in Juneau. Rice and Ahlers distribute 'Kelvinator" Harri Ma chine Shop has the Leonard" and Thomas Hardware the "Crossley.' All report customers showing the same interest that the older dis. tributors noted.
 Logical Trend
 While the popularity of refriger- ators in Juneau may surprise many persons on the Outside, an ana lysis. of conditions proves that the trend here is only logical. Tests by the various food organizations in the States. showing that refrig- orators pay for themselves in food savings, are matters of general Knowledge today. These savings are relatively greater in Juneau than in the States, due to the high CT price of perishaole foods Thus the careful Juneau householder, watching the food budget knows that few dollars a month devoted to buying an installment refrigera- tor will actually reduce the total bills.
 Evidence of the manner in which owners retain these achines through the years is seen in the lact that there is no second hand market" as in the case of automo- blies, radios and other equipment.
 T can remember having a sec ond hand one four years ago. said Johnson.
 Sales Take Big Jump
 Commercial installation in Ju- neau took a big jump in 1883, after beer was legalized, according to Johnson. To some extent this re- tarded commercial installation of Ice cream cabinets, but beginning this year again the ice cream bus mess in Juneau seems to have ta- Ken a distinct revival, judging by the number of new installations.
 Commenting upon the effect of seasons, Johnson said that for the lirst few years practically all of the business was done in the sum mer' but that of recent years there mas been no appreciable differ ence.

BRAKES PREPARED
BY RESERVE BOARD
Three Steps Already Taken
Show Determination to
Control Credit.
BY EDWARD b. HUBBARD,
Cambridge Associates stan.

Over q year ago the country heard,
but gave little attention to, the first
inconsequential notes Of q melody new
to American ears. High banking ofii-
cials. concerned over the tremendous
growth Of potentialities for expansion
Of credit, then began to devise meas
ures for the prevention of an uncon-
trollable boom. Today, following an
edict raising margin requirements on
loans by brokers and dealers. stiff
increase IN requirements for the
amount Of reserves to be held against
bank deposits, and q sterilization"
measure to prevent imports and ex-
ports Of gold from expanding or con-
tracing the credit base, this melody
has become the theme-song of an
increasingly anxious Federal Reserve
Board.
The first measure grew out Of 4
sharp increase in security prices which
had carried the standard statistics
index Of common stocks up more than
so per cent in the previous eight
months Ito January, 1886. Although
the improvement was obviously not ac-
companied by an increase in loans on
securities, and therefore could not be
arrested directly by this means. mar
kets underwent temporary period of
correction, beginning in March. The
top prices Of that month were not
equaled again until the middle Of July
Requirements Boosted.
Almost coincident with the forma-
ton OF q new bull market high, the
Federal Reserve Board suddenly gave
q months notice Of so per cent in
crease in reserve requirements on de-
mand and time deposits.
Excess reserves had reached a peak
Of $1,000 900 900 in the previous De-
cember, figure rendering useless the
ordinary means by which credit Is
controlled; i.e.. open market opera
tions. In requiring member banks to
give greater protection to deposits.
therefore, the Reserve Board brought
excess reserves down to a more tract
able figure. namely, approximately
81 1900, ,000, 900.
Continued flow Of capital across the
Atlantic to American shores even after
the French devaluation and gentle
mems agreement" Of September Is,
as well as more newly mined and sec
ondary gold from this country brought
forth from Board Chairman Eccles and
Secretary Of the Treasury Morgenthau
a statement placing a third finger In
the dixie.
Such q demonstration of ambidex-
terity was made possible by the fact
that the new problem was closely re-
lated to the previous difficulties with
excess reserves.
This so-called sterilization" move
was designed to arrest the growth of
reserves at no higher than q still
manageable $2,500, 100000, toward
which figure they were rapidly mount
ing. The mechanism was simple, con-
sisting Of weekly issuance of non
deposit-creating treasury bills to pay
for future gold purchases in place of
deposit-creating gold certificates.
The average banker Is comforted by
