j. ). Withdrawal
From Silver Market
Hits Foreign Nations
Price in London Drops;
Dealings Chief Factor
In Mexican Economy
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 27.-Silver
trade sources said today the antici-
pated withdrawal of the United
States Treasury from the interna-
tional market might have profound
financial, economic and political
reverberations in several foreign
countries.
The Treasury's action in reducing
its price for foreign silver from 43
cents to 40 cents an ounce was dis
cerned as a direct effect of yester-
days successful attack on the pol
icy In the United States Senate,
which weakened foreign silver
markets. The Treasury reduction
followed drop in London of nearly
l1a cents an ounce.
Handy & Harman, leading silver
dealers, dropped its price for i'm
ported silver for commercial use
from 42a cents to 1924, lowest since
October 81, 1888.
Purchases Exceed $3.50, 900, 900.
treasury purchases of foreign sill
yer IN the last four years have been
estimated to exceed $3.50 ZOO, 900. A
large part of the silver so acquired
is stored IN special vaults at West
Point.
While no one would predict what
the Treasury would do, traders did
not Sc any likelihood of strength in
the international silver market at
the lower levels, and it was gener-
ally assumed that If the foreign
price went lower, the Treasury
would follow down.
The projected increase in the
treasury price for newly mined
domestic silver was not expected to
be much help to foreign silver. since
virtually all domestic output has
oeen purchased by the Government
since 1888.
Mexican Economy Factor.
Foreign exchange bankers said a
chief factor in Mexican economy for
four years had been the United
states Ireasury's silver buying, and
some thought that serious internal
economic and political consequences
might follow shut-off of Treasury
buying.
China, they said, would probably
not be so hard hit, since the United
States Treasury has already pur-
chased, for gold, a major part of
Chlnas available silver, and it was
considered even possible that ces-
sation of American buying of silver
would relieve the stringency of the
metal for currency purposes at
shanghai and Hong Kong. British
lunos have outweighted United
states help in supporting the
onanghal silver dollar and tho

Stark Says Union
Of Crime and Politics

Step Held Necessary to

souri's crime fighting Gov. Lloyd c.
Stark declared today the union be-
tween crime and politics must be
smashed III the faith of the Ameri-
can people in popular government is
to be retained"
The Democratic Governor, who
gained national prominence by lead
ing the fight which crumbled the
powerful Tom Pendergast political
machine and put its leader in q
Federal prison, told % chief State
executives at the 31st annual Gov
ernors' Conference:
'"The Nations crime bill represents
a severe loss to this country at a
time when we are straining every re-
source to bring about a sound and
lasting recovery. "+' It is symp-
tom of faults in our political struc-
ture Which must be corrected"
Earlier, two Democratic Governors
Homer A. Holt, West Virginia, and
John Moses, North Dakota-agreed
on the inadvisability of taxing citi-
zens beyond their ability to pay.
The Missouri executive pointed
out Governor is the chief law
enforcement officer of a State, and
urged the group to exercise its power
for uniform law enforcement in
their areas.
He related the legal maneuvers
which led to the downfall of Pen
dergast and told Of what he said
was an alliance between crime and
politics in Kansas City.
THE Kansas City police, under
control Of the city officials, have
been a plant tool for the crooked
politicians who found it helpful in
chiseling out their empire of graft
and corruption" Gov. Stark con-
tinued.
Not adverse to bullying any citi-
zen who committed minor traffic
lnfractlon, the police had no heart
for the task of rounding up mur-
derers. gamblers, dope peddlers and
racketeers, who found Kansas City

Instead of returning to New York

Tor Europe by way of the Suez Canal.
He denied that he took the long way
in order to give persons in New York

Ickes Favors Liftinu
Alaska immigration
Restrictions
Says Artisans Fleeing
Europe Could PIoy Key
Role in Development
n the Associated Press.

- the Associated Press.
European industries "broken up or
diverted by current waves of intol-
erance" should be "transplanted to
Alaska for the benefit Of the United
States" Secretary Ickes suggested
yesterday.
His proposal accompanied publi-
cation of a report prepared under
the direction of Undersecretary of
the Interior Harry Slattery, which
recommended that bars against for
eign immigration into the territory
be let down on the ground that
present restrictions had a "disas-
trous effect" upon the development
and defense of Alaska.
Mr.. Ickes said he was convinced
from study of the Slattery report
that artisans now fleeing Europe"
could play key role in creating in
Alaska various industries which un-
til now have not been developed in
the United States"
He added the report was IAN invi-
tation to private capital to CO.
operate in the development of
Alaska"
THE Slattery report shows that
Alaska has the resources of water
power, timber, minerals, fish and
fur upon which a sound Alaskan
economy can be based" Mr.. Ickes
continued.
New industries suggested by the
Secretary included production of va
rious types of fur, leather, paper and
wood products which we now i'm
port from European and Asiatic
sources"
TT is matter for serious national
concern" he said, that Alaska, with
territory, climate and resources
equal to all Scandinavia, now has a
static population of about 10000
compared with population of 49,
100000 in Scandinavia.
II hope that the Slattery report
will serve as powerful impetus to
practical thinking and intelligent
action in the development of Alaska.
Patriotic capital and men and wom-
en- with the spirit of our pioneers
have an opportunity to enlist in the
service of the Nation, building cities
on our last frontier"

Residential Building
Ahead of Lost Yeur

The money spent for residential
building in the Middle Atlantic
States so far this year has reached
the level which was recorded during
November, 1888. according to j. r.
Little. the district manager of Dodge
reports. The contracts awarded
during each of the eight. months
established substantial margins over
the same months of last year. Sig
niflcantly, great activity has taken
place in the one-family field.
The Dodge reports summary re-
veals current residential contract
total of $l24,795, 900 for Southern
New Jersey. Eastern Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Maryland, the District
and Virginia. This includes a mar
gin of more than $4,000, 900 over
the eight months total of last year,
$50, ,085.0 900.
In a grouping of all types of
building and heavy engineering
construction, Dodge reports finds
that the Middle Atlantic States have
passed the $500 900 600 mark. The
eight months level was S311. .637, 600.

Don IS Set Forth
FOR Home Builder

''Don'ts" for the prospective home
builder are set forth by Clement w.
Fairweather of Metuchen, N. j., fell
low of the American Institute of
Architects, who declares that "only
by absorbing the inspiration of the
past and adapting it to the needs of
the present can beauty be created"
Mr.. Fairweather's don't" list fol-
lows:
Don't try to get the cheapest
plan. If that's what you want. you
should have a round house, and en-
ter directly into the living room, and
into each room from that, but you
know perfectly well that long,
low, rambling house with the WIN
dows sticking through the caves is
better.
Don't try to eliminate all corri-
doris They add to the spaciousness
of the house even if they do some
what increase the cost.
Don't insist on having the bath
room over the kitchen because it is
cheaper so. If it works out that
way it's very nice, Of course, but
there's no sense in having the bath
room where you don't want it. just
to save few feet of cast iron soil
pipe.
Don't pay too much attention to
that fetish about having the house
the proper width to save timber
The actual effect on the cost of this
item is negligible and it is more i'm
portant to be sure that the width of
the dining room is adequate.
Don't ignore the practical aspects
when planning your home, but let
them be your servant, not your
master"

to buy automobiles, refrigerators,
radios, vacuum cleaners.
1T is no longer necessary to pay
the contractor in lump sum upon
the completion of a painting and
decorating job. Arrangements can
be made for having such work done
without down payment-with
monthly installments Of small
amount each month. Home own
ers simply explain what they wish
to have done by the painting and
decorating contractor to modern
ize their dwellings. The contractor
draws up specifications and makes
a definite estimate of the total cost.
After credit statement, checked
up by an agent of the financing
company, the go-ahead order is
given.
Don't ever think you're cutting
financial corners by engaging a
painter who isn't highly skilled or
by having him use anything but the
best materials. Either course opens
an avenue for the possibility of un-
satisfactory results.
Employ quality workmanship and
materials and you make sure of
getting the greatest pleasure, salts
faction and service from your new
house"

Paint Styling Creates New
Homes at Old Addresses

New homes at old addresses are
yours for the asking according to
Henry Altman, president of the
Painting and Decorating Contrac-
tors of America Even though it may
not be possible to have the brand
new modern house of which many
of us dream, it is. Mr.. Altman points
out. definitely possible to turn houses
into homes in new way-a way
that starts with what we have and
not what we hope to have. How
can this be done? by paint and
painting" states Mr. Altman, by
the utilization of what we call styl-
ing with paint"
What is styling? Styling with
paint" explains the trade associa-
ton head, consists of selecting
colors that are currently popular
and using them in painting the eX-
terror or interior of a house in a
manner that follows the current
trends in painting. These trends
are known to painting and decorat-
ing contractors by means of surveys
of what colors are being used in
various parts of the country on
various types Of newly constructed
houses and in various types of new
rooms"
In creating new homes for old"
by the use of paint, the greatest
satisfaction to the owner and the
most harmonious result will be OBJ
tanned by a complete job for both
the exterior and interior, Mr.. Altman
points out. A good exterior paint
job, he stresses, will include not only
the house but the detached garage.
the fences and any other smaller
buildings on the property.
From the standpoint of styling"
says Mr.. Altman. bright color con-
trasts should be employed for the
shutters, the front door, the gate.
These are details I would like to
emphasize because today it is the
fashion to paint the rest of the out
side trim-except perhaps the WIN
dow sashes-the same color as the
body of the house
Perhaps you say that you would
like nothing better than to modernize
your old home with paint-provided
you could afford it. Nowadays you
can buy painting and decorating
jobs on a time payment plan-the
same sort OF plan which you use
