tive interest in the show last year and
others who likewise will continue their
interests this year are Mrs Dwight F..
Davis, wife of the former Secretary of
War; Mrs. Joseph H. Hines, Mrs
Eleanor Patterson, Mrs. Henry Leon
ard, Mrs. George Sloane, Mrs. H.
Rozier Dulany, Mrs Patrick j. Hurley,
whose husband was one time Secre-
tary of War, and Mrs. Lawrence Wood

assist Mrs. Mclean as vice chairman
of her committee.
Mrs. Mclean again will give bril-
liant party at Friendship for the off,
GERS in the show as she did last year.
Plans are also being discussed for a
hunt ball and breakfast.
Diplomats Will Entertain
For Their Countrymen.
OF course, there is always large
party at Fort Myer honoring the for
eign riders, and the Chilean and Mex
lean Ambassadors will entertain their
visiting countrymen during their stay
in the Capital.
1t sounds like all play for the horse
man, but this is not the case. Perhaps
you may recall how the riders con-
stantly practice days in advance of the
show and even take time out during
the show days for bit of polishing up
The inter-American show is the
only outdoor horse show in this
country with Olympic courses with
foreign riders competing. It is also
the second largest outdoor show in this
country.
United States Horsemen
. Victors Two Years Ago.
To go back a bit to other years.
Last year the visiting team was from
Belgium and carried off the honors,
and the year before the United States
horses won first awards with Chile
second and Mexico third.
This years show will be extremely
= exciting, for again the three teams
which met two years ago will be COM
peting.
All interest will not be focused on
the riding of Army officers, however.
Much stress each year is laid in the
interstate team jumping, when the
finest horses from Maryland, the Dis
trlct Virginia, Pennsylvania as well |
as New York are entered Horse lovers
from all over the East will again make |
the pilgrimage to Washington in Octo-
Der to see this outstanding horse event. |
and there will be round of parties
fer these visitors in addition to the
functions for the foreign riders.
Charity Will Probably
Be Aided by Concessions.
The social side of the show will not
be absent from the daily performance.
for many prominent personages will
entertain box parties and will take ad.
vantage of the various concessions
bordering the show grounds. There is
probability that the concessions will
be run for an outstanding charity, and
If this is the case Washington's
younger set will be on the scene serv-
ing as mattresses or vendors to raise
funds for their favorite philanthropic
endeavor.

Local business financing is not
feasible now, particularly when the
loan is between 100000 and $3.50. =
600 This is a sizeable fund to be
picked up locally even in normal
times and outside aid must be
sought. 1t was situations of this
type that the administration had
in mind when it recently threw
open the 1880 100000 assets of
the reconstruction finance corpor-
alton to small business. The regula-
tions concerning both Federal Re-
serve bank and RFC loans. how
ever. are restrictive. The former,
for instance, are limited to five
years for working capital" rather
than fixed capital purposes. Hence.
a big portion of the applications
for loans by small businesses must
be rejected
The latest proposal is for invest
ment trusts TO fill this financing
void. They DO so in England. The
plan would be for the Investment
trusts to divide themselves into
two classes: One group would con-
fine its investments to "eonSerya-
tive" seasoned securities. The other
group - frankly termed specula-

tive trusts"-womd provide new
capital Tor small companies by
buying their newly issued stock or
bonds. Such investment trusts
would act as a pool OF new money
for little corporations who cannot
now finance through other chan
nelS.
Financing Trust Idea Sensible
This sounds like a sensible
scheme to me- 1t offers a more
practical solution than having I'm

a partner in, or creditor of, thou
sands of small concerns. These
trusts would do for little business
eS what S. z. Mitchell did for the
little utilities when he organized
Electric Bond & Share over so
years ago. The only better solution
would be the passage Of needed
recovery measures by congress and
the speaking OF a few friendly
words to business by the President.
The resultant return of confidence
would then break the dam hold
ing back recovery.

Plenty American Policemen rank among the Upper crust" of the population intellectually and among them are good many brilliant minds.
 That was the conclusion drawn by James s.

 "All of the 92 police officers rank in intelligence among the upper 10 pe- cent of the general white popu- lation," he said. With SO many ex- cellent men to choose from, the task of awarding fellowships will be ex- tremely difficult. All are worthy of the honor"
