BY LAWRENCE CROLIUS,

Have you ever gone to lot OF
trouble fixing small cracks in floors,
cementing loose tiles, or some other
small but unpleasant repair job, then
found that the material you had used
had failed you utterly and completely?
So many cements and mending ma
terials work admirably on fat joining
repairs, then fool you into using them
in places where shrinkage after COM
pletion means failure Obviously this
condition is remedied by using a &C.
ment which will expand rather than
contract after drying.
Well, it comes in a small can, COM
plete with a putty knife and mixing
pan, and costs little less than a dol
lar per can.
When confronted with a gaping
crack in plaster wall, or q loosely
hung light bracket, you mix some of

His Sermons Were Popular

-FOUR years ago the Protestant
church in Germany was thought
to be nearing the end; under the
Nazi government it had become
only an organization to officiate at
weddings, christenings, funerals
and the like. 1t has recently under
gone such revival at the hands
of one Rev. Martin Niemoeller,
leader of the Confessional synod,
and his supporters that of late the
churches were overcrowded. Rev.
Mr.. Niemoeller fought to keep poll
tics out of the church.. Sos
Lately the fiery minister had been
examined almost every week by
prosecuting attorneys in Berlin.
Then at last he was arrested by the
secret police and taken to Jail while
his wife and six children looked on.
He was charged with stirring up
hatred in his speeches against lead
ing persons in the Nazi state and
movement" The police raided his
offices and seized many documents
and about $4,000. Said an official
communique after Rev. Mr.. Me
moeller's arrest:
HE has spread untrue reports
about measures taken by Nazi au-
thorities in order to incense the
population. He also called for re-
sistance to state laws and DEGREES.
His statements were part of the
steady fare of foreign newspapers
hostile to Germany"

F.D.R. Wakes impatient

TT WAS believed that the pressure
L of public opinion in the steel
strikes had driven President Roose-
welt close to supporting federal leg
islation similar to that in the amend
ments proposed by Senator Arthur
H. Vandenberg of Michigan for the
national labor relations act. The
President indicated at a press con-
ference that he was as much put out
at the c. I. o. for forcing organiza-
ton upon the steel workers as he
was with the corporations for refus-
ing to negotiate in terms of signed
contract.
Senator Vandenberg's proposed
amendments were designed to
broaden the rights of employers I'm
der the Wagner act, forbid "sit-
down" strikes and other unfair"
union practices, and provide severe
penalties for unions which violated
contracts with employers.

Rebels Take French Ship

IT HE situation in Europe was
\ hardly improved, with Germany
and Italy still anxious to give the
full rights of belligerents to both
rebel and loyalist governments in
Spain. AS the directing subcommit-
tee of the committee of q nations
for non-intervention met, Britain
and France sought desperately to
effect some compromise which
would keep the entire non-interven-
ton program from being washed
overheard, but the two Fascist ma
tions were difficult to WOO with any
compromises Britain and France
could afford to make.
Meanwhile, two French warships
were speeding for the Spanish coast
between Bilbao and Santander,
where, according to reports, the
Spanish rebel cruiser Almirante
Cervera had fired upon and cap
tured the Tregastel, a French ship
carrying loyalist refugees from
Santander. The refugee ship had
been chartered by a French popu-
lar committee to aid the loyalists.
1t had been reported halted less
than three miles off shore, well with
in Spanish waters.

Mediators Blame Steel

THE federal mediation board
L named by Secretary of Labor
Frances Perkins, which reached q
deadlock and gave up in its efforts
to help the c. /. O.-affiliated Steel
Workers Organizing Committee and
the independent steel corporations
solve their difficulties, laid the
blame for its failure at the door Of
the steel concerns.
ave cannot but believe that the
bitterness and suspicion which sep
parate the two sides would be al
layed by a man-to-man discussion
around the conference table between
the heads of the four companies
and the union representatives, and
that the only present possible hope Of
settlement lies in such meeting"
the boards report said.
"We further believe that the re-
fusal of the four companies to enter
into any agreement with the S. w.
o. c., regardless of the number of
employees whom it actually rep
resents, which could be demonstrate
ed by a secret ballot election, is
not the way to industrial peace"
The report said that Tom Cir Ter,
chairman of the board of Republic
Steel and leader of the companies
fight, stated that che would not
consent to a term contract because
he believed it necessary for the
proper operation of his company
that it should be in position to
meet the fluctuating price of steel
by wage variations if it became
necessary"
On the board were Charles p.
Taft, chairman; Lloyd K. Garrison
and Edward F. McGrady.

Uncle Sam Checks Up

OI!NtG Sotu SttCSNS w
JINGLE SAM wound up the 1887
~ fiscal year with a net deficit of
$2,707, BAT, ITO, or about $780, 600
more than President Roosevelt esti-
mated last April, according to the
report of the United States Treas
ury.
The gross national public debt
climbed to a total of $36, 424 1913 1872
as of June 80, it was shown.
Receipts for the period just closed
were the largest in 16 years,
amounting to $5,293, 840,236 COM
pared with SAILS, 956,615 for the
1867 year and about $40, 000,0 600 in
excess of estimates. Expenditures
were los, 1853, SAT, including $1O3,-
933, $50 for debt retirement origi-
nally planned for that period but
carried over into the current year.
Completion of the debt retire
ment program as previously con-
tenplated would have called for the
expenditure of $404, 525, 900, which
would have placed the gross deficit
above the So, 1000 900, 600 mark.
In the 1867 period, recovery and
relief costs were more than $400,-
100000 below the total for the year
before, amounting to $2,846, 49,, 1882
against S., 290, 927 1869.
Reliable authorities around the
capitol said that as soon as all ap-
preparation bills for the 1888 fiscal
year were cleared, the President
would direct the heads of all govern
ment departments to impound 10
per cent of their appropriations, ex-
elusive of fixed charges, in an at
tempt to balance the budget. Ex-
perts said that maximum of $780,
100000 could be saved in that way.
The prospective net deficit for 1888
was estimated at $500, 100000.

Idea for Tunnels

Ancient Egyptians, observing
streams enter one side of a hill
and come out the other, got the
idea for tunnels. They built them
into tombs. Builders after them
bored tunnels to carry or drain
water. One people, the Baby
lonians, more daring than the rest,
tunneled beneath the Euphrates
river. Thus began the story, ac-
cording to correspondent in the
Washington Post, of the most fas-
cinating and dangerous of all tun-
neling operations, subaqueous-
underwater.

every justice remaining on the court
after reaching the age of seventy
five years. Under its provisions the
President would be permitted to
name one new justice this year (be-
sides filling the vacancy left by the
retirement of Justice Willis V n
Devanter) and assure him of at
least one new appointment to the
court in each remaining year of his
present term of office. All of the APP
pointments would hinge on the de-
cision of justices seventy-five or
older on retirement.
The opposition Immediately
charged that the new bill was as
offensive as the old one. Sen. Burton
K. Wheeler, Democrat, Montana,
said: "The compromise is not going
to get through. The new bill is just
as Objectionable as the old, because
it seeks to pack the Supreme court
just like the original bill did," Sen.
Edward R. Burke, Democrat, Neb-
raska, said the 43 senators would
vote against any kind of measure
that would increase the Supreme
court.
Some of the other provisions of
the new bill were:
Authority for 20 additional APP
pointments to lower courts in
the event that judges over seventy
fail to retire. The old bill would
have permitted SO new appointments
altogether.
Speedy Intervention by the gov
eminent in cases involving consti-
tutionality of federal laws, and
speedy appeal to the Supreme court.

DEHYDRATINC
OF POTATOES
NOW FEASIBLE
Beets and Carrots Can Al
so Be Kept by Newly
Discovered Method
By HITLER KRIECHBAUM
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Sept. y. iCTJ
Discovery Of new process TO
take the water out Of flcShy veg
ctablcS, such as potatoes, beetS
and carrots, so they may be Stor-
ed almost indefinitely without
loss from rotting. freezing and
moulding. was announced last
night by the department OF agrl-
culture.
The discovery was made by DIR.
r.. f. Hopkins at the new sweet
potato starch laboratory at Lau-
rel, Miss. while working on a
Joint research project of the de-
partmcnt of agriculture and the
chemical foundation. His work re-
vcaled that il is possible to store
the dry portion of sweet potatoes
so that commercial plant may
operate on a year-rOund basis IN
extracting the starch. Such an adj
vance was necessary before the
fleShy vegetables could be used
efficiently for obtaining starch.
Eventually officials believe the
process may be applied to new
methods for storing foods for hu-
man use and ultimately will re-
suit in new concentrated foods.
In the new dehydrating proc
csS. any one of least eight
harmless chemicals is exposed to
the vegetables. Best results were
obtained when they are ground
up or sliced. The chemicals break
down the cell walls and make it
possible 10 recover, through
pressing. at least 10 per cent of
the water in the vegetables. The
pressed residue then is dried at
relatively low temperatures and
within SO hours is in the state
which may be preserved almost
indefinitely.
The process, according to re-
ports from DR.. Hopkins, is far
more effective than any methods
previously used. Under the tech
niquc the dry material can under
20 no change and thus rottlng
and moulding as well as possible
engine action and respiration are
eliminated.
Chemicals which already have
been tested successfully in the
Laurel laboratory include chloro-
form ether. bcnzol. petrol ether,
carbon tctrachloridc. sulphur
dioxidc, tuluene and chlorine
gaSScS.
With commercial applications
of the process, a small plant OPP
Grating on Il ycar-rOund basis
could manufacture several mil
lion pounds of starch from sweet
potatoes. it was estimated.
Associates of DR.. Hopkins also
pointed out that it may be pos
sible to distill alcohol from the
! juices which are a by-product of
