the meet.
A week ago yesterday was annual
senior class ditch day at MIS-.
Three members of the track team
were seniors and Wally is said to
have taken it for granted all mem

for practice the coach, it is said,

the meet in Tucson. Arguments
followed and the coach was told. by
school officials he would have to

he resigned following the meet.

BEHIND THE SCENES
BY John Craddock

New York, Sept. building De-
ferred-The War Production Board
has dealt another blow to those of
us who hoped to make a little ad-
dition to our living quarters this
year. Effective today, the govern
ment officials placed a limit Of $500
on the amount Of residential on
struction involving a change Of de-
sign which can be carried through
without specific authorization from
the wan agency. War housing is not
affected by the order, but almost
every other kind Of building is. Pre-
viously, new construction valued at
$500 or less could be erected without
approval. theoretically, there is no
limit on repair work under this re-
vised order, but the list Of items ex-
Guided from the repair category is
so all-encompassing that most resto-
ration or reconstruction work might
just as well be given up for the
duration.

Fireside Convention

Inc restrictions imposed by war
are causing us to make considerable
changes in our lives and they are
altering the usual run of events
in the business world, too. One of
the highlights in financial circles has
always been the annual convention
of the American Bankers Associa-
ton, where some of the leading fig
ures in America have been wont to
engage in considerable speech-mak-
ing. But this year, instead of using
up precious railroad and automobile
passenger miles in getting to the con-
vention and returning home, the
members decided to meet through the
pages of Banking, official publication
of the association. Consequently, the
September issue of this magazine
contains the usual speeches and COM
mittee reports, articles by bankers,
economists and government officials.
messages from President Roosevelt
and Secretary of the Treasury Nor
genthau, and panel discussions on
various and sundry phases of bank
ing. linus many a money man has
been able to attend his favorite func-
ton curled up in the easy chair at
home and not miss a single working
hour at the bank.

How n feels during an air raid
has become a universal question or a
reality. | have not yet experienced
a raid but the genuine alarm we had
here last week gave me all the SEN
sations of enemy action except the
actual bombs and shooting. In the
dark, slumbrous hours before dawn,
we were sleeping soundly as usual
when all of a sudden out of the noc-
turnal quiet burst a series of sounds
which stood ones towsled hair on

through the shivering darkness with
a great bedlam which seemed as il
all pandemonium had broken loose.

bombs drop and the antiaircraft to
cut loose. They didn't but everything
else did. Air raid wardens dashed
into the streets yelling and whistline

wall of the sirens kept up a symphony
of terror. / kept thinking the night.

Travel Advice

Travel Advice
Owning a million fewer freight
cars and 10000 fewer locomotives
than in the first World War, Amer
lean railroads are carrying nearly
double the volume of freight. In the
passenger field they show equal ver-
satility, handling with few delays and
inconvenience the mounting trans
p~ortation demands of a civilian pop
ulace suddenly deprived of gas and
rubber. At the same time millions of
troops are being moved safely and
speedily. For civilians seeking ways
to help in the var effort, therefore,
this suggestion of a railroad man de-
serves a hearing. Vacationists, week
enders and those returning to schools
during September, traditional peak
travel month, says D. A. Crawford,
president of the Pullman Company
should be prepared to change their
plans, if necessary, by waiting for the
next train or going a day earlier or
later. Troop movement, of necessi-
ty, ONE first, and no one would
want it otherwise, he declares. With
civilian travel in sleeping cars rum
ming 33 per cent ahead of last year,
and military demands almost five
times greater, according to Craw-
ford, the civilian traveller a help
merely by planning to accept alter
nate Pullman space. "The best ad-
vice l can give the civilian traveller
in war time he adds, "is to consult
your local travel agent, who will know
how best to route you and when"

Dividend Dependents

Rufus Tucker, economist of Cen

authorized an article which throws
new light on the distribution of divi-
dends to stockholders Of American
corporations. Basing his estimates
on income tax returns for the states
Of Delaware and Wisconsin, which
are now reported more fully than
formerly, Mr.. Tucker found that at
least four and one-half million Amer
leans receive all or part of their in
come from dividends on common or
preferred stocks. And-here's the
Interesting thing-nearly four million
Of these have total incomes Of less
than $4,000 annually. In other
words, almost 80 per cent of those
