Yesterday she wore an extreme
Nv chic costume of soft beige wool
and all of her accessories
were of brilliant Kelly green,
even to the short kid gloves. When
asked about her art studies she
replied in her charming manner:
Il studied for a while at Cor
coran when I was here" How
ever, she believes that because OF
the fact that her technique is en-

would probably spoil it.
At present Mrs. Clark is looking
forward eagerly to another trip
abroad. She sails on July IA on
the Normandie for the Salzburg

Barbara and Virginia, her two
daughters-their ages being 10

Delights Her Friends
She delights In presenting her
friends products of her brush as
dinner souvenirs, at Christmas
and birthdays and as visit re-
membranes. According to the
artist, her paint box gives a more
intimate record than a camera.
She was frankly amazed and
exuberant over the great stir made
in New York when her los little
scenes were shown. While in the
big city for the exhibition she en-
ioyed the casual comments OF the
observers and most of them were:

one could paint such tiny pic.

\VIASHINGTON.--On a recent
" day when many dispatches
were reporting that the President
of the United States was thinking
up ways to plaCate business,
Roosevelt was toying with an idea
which had little in common with
such a trend Of thought,
Perhaps nothing more, will be
heard about this, but the idea was
that for about S500,000,000, the
government could buy control Of
the public utility industry in the
United States.
BY "condcmning" com m on
stocks of holding companies at
present market values, certain
of his experts told Roosevelt,
that sum could be made to pur-
chase control of more than Sl3,T
OO0,OOO,OOO of public utility value:
And then the government could
operate the electric power eusi-
ness TO suit itself
The President, furthermore,
seemed to think this bold move
might be a good plan. But 1t
may end in mere thinking. Con-
greSs would have to approve 1t
and Roosevelt has troubles
enough.
At any rate, the fact that RooSe-
Welt should even be thinking OF
such a thing is significant in its
indication of his present attitude
in the face of a business recession
and loud demands from business
for less reform. 49,.
The President, according TO
some of his .intimates, considers
the present situation somewhat
analogous to the one 100 years ago
when Andrew Jackson had his MS
toric battle with the Bank OF the
United States and Nicholas Biddle
promoted a panic to help the
