Many a youngster who you'd not
think of stealing a ride on the tailboard
of truck will hitch his sled TO a
car in order to enjoy thrilling free
ride. That's one of the winter hazards
drivers must think about during the
next month or two.
1t is a great temptation 10 be big
hearted and let the kids have their fun,
but think what it means when you sud-
denly decide to turn a corner and the
sled on which the youngsters are riding
sideswipes another car going in the op-
posite direction. Serious injury or death
may be the result.
If you really love children you will

On This Occasion

When you are accused OF
being from a hick town, don't
feel offended. A writer has
come to the conclusion that a
hick town is where a boy has
an excellent chance to lay the
foundation for future greatness.
A hick town is the place where
27 of our presidents were born.
A hick town that didn't have a
name produced Lincoln. Hick
towns gave us most of our great
literary figures of the past and
practically all of those now
living.

HIGHERCURB

NEW YORK, March 10 UN.S0. d.
With the exception Of the metals,
which turned down on another re-
duction in lead prices, curb stocks
worked generally higher in later
morning trading today.
Gains were of moderate proper
tions on the whole and were scored
in a rather quiet market.
Better earnings lifted Colts
Patent Fire Arms more than five
points shortly after the opening
and the stock retained its advance
later. Ex-Cell-O Aircraft quickly
erased loss of almost point to
work higher on the session. Twin
Coach, Pittsburgh Forgings and
General Tire & Rubber were
among the moderately priced issues
to score gains of more than a
point.
Brown Company pfd., National
Gypsum A and Aluminium, Ltd.
lost about a point each.
A runup of more than a half
point on good buying in Electric
Bond and Share attended improve
ment in the utilities. Electric
Power End pfd. gained more than
a point and good fractional gains
were chalked up in such lower
priced issues as Cities Service, Ar
kansas Natural Gas issues and
Eastern Gas common. There were
few declines.
Fractionally lower levels pre-
vailed in the mining shares with
Hecla down almost a point under
persistent selling. Liquidation was
occasioned by the third cut in the
domestic lead prices this week and
by weakness in metal prices gen.
orally.
Outside of gains of almost 2
points in Lion Oil, which sold up
to 1872, oils were mixed and tend
ing slightly higher. Gulf erased a
loss Of almost a point, while Hum
BILE continued to sell at a discount.

LIQUOR CREDIT
CASES STUDIED

Forty-nine retail liquor dealers
have been cited by the District
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
for violation of the reasonable
credit" regulation adopted a year
ago by the board.
Already in nine cases heard by
the board, dealers have been found
guilty and have been meted out
one-day suspension of their
licenses. Mrs. Agnes K. Mason,
acting chairman of the board, an
nounced today the same punish
ment will be meted out in all of
the remaining cases where the
dealer is found guilty.
The cases were worked UP by
Major Jerome Johnstone, chief in
spector of the board, through a
check of the records of the dealers.
At the request of both whole
sale and retail liquor dealers, the
board adopted the reasonable
credit" rule year ago, by which
licensees were prohibited from
carrying credit with wholesalers
beyond Is days.
In each of the 40 cases, Mrs.
Mason said, the offending dealers
were given until March l to pay
up their bills, When they failed
to do so, the board cited them to
appear before it. The board plans
to hear cases at the rate of four or
five day until the end Of the
month to clear up the pending
cases.

JOB SHIFTING
H|TBY REPORT

Assignment of Government en-
ployeS to duties other than those
for which their salaries are appro'
priated-a practice which, it is
charged, has been growing in the
various observation-disclosures in Tor
serious criticism today by the
House Appropriations subcommlt
tee which reported the money
measure for the State, Comerce,
Justice, and Labor Departments.
The report accompanying the
bill commented:
The spirit of the law which
cOuntenanceS these assignments
for q period not to exceed 100
days is aimed to afford apprO-
pirate remedy for emergent con-
ditiOns that Unexpectedly arise
on occasion in the operation of
any establishment. The fact
that a limitation was placed in
the law on the number of days
from which such an assignment
may be made (subject to re-
newal for a like periOdD, in the
opinion Of the committee, con-
ClusiveIy establishes this inter-
probation of the spirit of the law.
Accordingly, when these as
signmentS are made and upon
the expiration of each 12O-day
period are renewed, then re-re-
newed and continued sometimes
for periods of several years the
purpose of the law is being en-
larged beyond its original in
tent"
