Frederic S Band
Coming Wednesday
For Dance Here

Although Marvin Frederic trained
for statistical and accounting work
during his college days at the Univer-
sity of Michigan he finally turned to
leading his own dance band.
Frederic. who brings his famous or
chestra to Henderson on Wednesday
dated Radio Artists, first organized
his band on the campus of the Uni
versity of Michigan during his fresh
man year. The orchestra developed
rapidly and soon was in demand for
school functions. While Marvin was
specializing in accounting and had
plans for a career as an executive in
the automotive industry he found di-
recting dance band more fascinating
Finally he decided to give up his scho-
lastic work and devote all his time to
music. An offer came for Frederic
to present his music at the Book Cas-
inc of the Book-Cadillac Hotel, Detroit
and the orchestra scored a great hit.
After four months engagement there
the orchestra moved on to the Commo-
dore Perry Hotel in Toledo, repeating
their Detroit hotel triumphs.
DuA ing Lie PAST year MARVIN FRED
cries orchestra has broadcasted many
times. At the Book-Cadillac, Detroit,
the band was heard nightly for four
months over WJR, Detroit Since
then they have broadcasted three
times weekly over the NBC coast-to-
coast blue network from the Commo-
dore Perry in Toledo and more recent

it was a bungling thing-so compli-
Gated that few, even of it's friends,
thoroughly understood it, and SO full
of provisions for bureaucratic admin
istration of the proposed regulatory
system that many labor leaders them
selves regarded it skeptically. Indeed,
Presidnt william Green of the A. F.
of L. definitely was against it. John
insisting that it was better than
nothing, admitted that it was unsatis-
factory.
All the same, labor generally want
ed wage-hour legislation.
AS Seen By G. 0. p.
Executive Vice President E. L.
Oliver of Labor's Non-Partisan Lea
que (the Lewis organization) pro-
claims:
"The defeat of the wage-hour hill
by a coalition of northern and south
ern reactiOnaries was a death blow to
the hopes of underpaid millions who
work in our sweated industries. Re
dictionary Democrats, who resorted to
every possible device to prevent pas
sage of the bill, must accept respon-
sibility, which they cannot evade by
the excuse that the bill was weak and
inadequate. However slight the pro-
gress made, that much at least would
have ben gained. The bill will be an
issue in the 1888 congressional cleo
tional elections"
The singer is in the last sentence;
labor's Non-Partisan League proposes
to attend to the so-called reaction
aries next November.
A Formidable Element.
No politician likes to have so for
midable an element solidly against
him on election day.
It may not be majority, but may
be balance of power.

DOWNWARD TRENDS
STRUCK BY STOCKS
Market Distrustful of Coming Con-
gress and pronOuncement by
the President

New York, Dec. 27.-(AP)- Stock
market leaders took a turn for the
worse today, with recently-strong ar
mament issues, such as steels and air
crafts, developing weakness In rela-
lively slow dealings, losses running
to three or more points were in eyi-
dence near the fourth hour. Aside
from more year-end tax-selling, spe-
culative forces apparently found little
to cheer about in the address of AS
sistant Attorney General Robert Jack
son blaming "big business" itself for
the economic recession, and indicat-
ing "profiteering" by monopoly would
come in for government attack in the
near future. Warnings of Washing
ton authorities that the budget will be
difficult to balance because Of falling
revenues, due to the business setbacks,
also chilled hopes Of financial quar-
tiers for desired tax revision. Cutom
ers were scarce in commission houses,
many extending their Christmas holi-
days on the belief the market will be
unable to get anywhere in particular,
pending a clearer outlook for spring
trade, the opening of the regular ses-
sion of Congress and delivery of the
Presidents message. Japanese bonds
shot up following settlement Of the
Panay bombing crisis. Commodities
