are bad Mondays, days with head aches and days with too little sleep behind them. And there are good- luck days when our spirits soar. Yet we could do lot to keep disposi- tions level if we actually tried. And by so doing we would make our families happier. Children with unpredictable parents usual- ly live in a constant state of uncer- tainty.
 A nervous mother or an emo- tionally uncertain one, can make her family jittery, too One hour smiling and loving, the next rais- ing her voice in temper or vail ing about the way things go all this is very hard on Buddy and Betty. They don't quite know exactly what might be right, or wrong with each new day.
 Simply Moods
 Too often such parents are call ed emotionally unstable, but this implies some sort of chronic dis order, I think Most cases of mood are more fleeting than this. They just happen. Anything that up- sets us physically or emotionally does not necessarily mean insta- bility. It just means what it is a selfish giving way to mood, be- cause It relieves us to rave or rage or weep while others look on
 When two, people in one house give way to uncertain fits of hys- teria, for it is this in plain lan- guage, then no one on earth can expect the children to be them- selves. They learn to hide their simplest experiences. They also live in a cloud of fear.
 We have way of expecting our sons and daughters to give us their best. Have they not also the right to expect the same of us? l think so. If we want absolute frankness and honesty, then we will make some attempt at even- ness. Guessing games pail in time.

THE EVENING WASHINGTON c. FRIDAY
BRITISH WELCOME
ROOSEVELT PLEA
Wednesday Nights Speech
Has Small Effect on
Governing Circles.

LONDON, Oct. 28-President Roose-
velts straightforward anti-aggression
speech Of Wednesday night has been
thoroughly reported in : the British
press and has aroused considerable en-
thusiasm among the mass Of the Brit
ish population without having had the
least effect upon governing circles.
There are a good many signs that
the latter are actually embarrassed by
his outspoken words.
Leading British newspapers have
had absolutely no comment to make
upon that speech, nor to date have
they commented upon Washington's
stern note to Toxic demanding the
retention Of the open door policy in
China. Their silence is evidently oc-
casioned partly by the fact that they
are not yet sure how far the President
is willing to 60 to prevent aggression
in the future, and partly because they
do not really believe that isolationist
America really would be interested in
going very far.
The British cabinet. it must be
repeated, is primarily interested in
appeasing the dictators at the present
moment, and until its leaders have
been finally persuaded that peace is
not to be secured by turning the
other cheek to Reichsfuehrer Adolf
Hitler, Premier Benito Mussolini and
Japan, they are unwilling to show

similar to that signed by Adolf Hitler
and Prime Minister Neville Chamber
lain at Munich.
Such q declaration vas said to be
only one of several projects being dis
cussed in diplomatic negotiations Pre-
mier Edouard Daladier said yesterday
he hoped would lead to a French Ger
man understanding.
Usually well-informed circles ex-
pected that the proposed French Ger
man declaration against war would be
somewhat fuller than the British Ger
man statement.
However, after receiving q report
brought from Germany by the retiring
French Ambassador to Berlin, the
spokesman announced there would be
some delay in signing French-G Ger
man accord.
The Ambassador, Andre Francois
Poncet, arrived in Paris this morn
ing preparatory to taking up his new
assignment as Ambassador to Italy
He had taken prominent part in
negotiations for French German un-
derstanding through conferences with
Adolf Hitler.

dence demand was sufficient to use

Drop in Last Two Years.
From 1920 to 1880, Mr.. Carlisle said
the annual capital investments of the
utilities increased from about $780,
100000 to around $1,000 100000. In
the last two years such expenditures
have been around $500, 600, 900 a year
+ "The industry sees a return to the
old rate OF increases the utilities
spokesman said.
On methods of finance, Mr.. Carlisle
said, the industry wants as much
equity and stock financing as pos
sible."
The type Of securities sold to the
r. F. c., he said, presumably will be
the type which can be sold to the
public when the market can take it.
What the R. F. c. will purchase
will be no different from what the
market would take through normal
channels" he said.
Leading Firms Included.

did not say definitely what companies
had made commitments, but named

The power survey and construction

Rowe said he worked at Walter Reed

Asked what this source was, he
readily admitted it was from the un-
employment compensation funds of the

Unemployment Compensation Act for

The report stressed the Intangible"
factors which enabled Whitney to get
money easily from his associates.
There can be no doubt that the
prestige Of his position, coupled with
the fact that he was held in awe. if
not fear, by many who knew him,
gave him a great advantage which he
used IN subtle fashion to promote his
ends. His technique was simple and
his approach to prospective lenders
was direct, confidential and casual. !"

which were freely granted, some with
out collateral, the report said. was the
knowledge OF lenders that Whitney's
brother. George, was a partner in j.

Outside Speculation Blamed.
The document asserted that the
collapse of the Whitney firm could be
traced directly to outside speculative
ventures OF Whitney, which had little
or no connection with the brokerage
business.

In charge of the disciplinary action

report said, had knowledge not only
Of Richard Whitney's financial diff

ported their knowledge to officials of

gression and threats Of aggression,
such sentiments can only spoil their

new cars Is the removal Of the gear
shift lever from the center OF the
front floor board to the steering
wheel column. This makes for COM
fort in driving and, added to the
trend toward wider bodies, means
much in increased roominess. On
some models the elimination of run
ming boards is optional.
Aside from narrowed or entirely
eliminated running boards, body
lines back of the hood have not been
materially altered. The front, how
ever, is decidedly different. Lowered
radiator grilles. that in some in
stances extend across into wider
sweeping tenders, give the front end
a much broader appearance. This
effect is enhanced in some cars by
head lamps that are sunk in the
tenders.
There are gadgets galore. There is
an Illuminated turn indicator, oper-
ated from small lever below the
steering wheel; there is series of
colored lights to warn the driver of
his speed of operation, controlled by
the speedometer; there is greater use,
Of plastics, some makers trying them
on radiator grilles and molding as
we'll. as on steering wheels and in
strument panel buttons.
With the tendency always toward
lowered GLASSES the manufacturers
have had to deal again with the
problem of eliminating the hump
between clutch and differential. To
do this some makers have tilted the
power plant at an angle that requires
a e-jointed" assembly in the
transmission of power to the rear
wheels. At the same time the COM
plicated clutch assembly has been
simplif1ed. with about third as
many parts.
Coil springs are coming in for
greater adaptation. Concealed door
hinges are favored by many more
producers.
