the President to veto it may be glad or sorry as It turns out. It is the act which provides a sixyear niorltorium under certain circumstances for farmers who have mortgages due, contains some good features and others which might lead to difficulties unless properly and carefully administered. Mr. Fletcher and a few others are taking advantage of the fact that President Roosevelt is out of the country to say some rather sharp things, aimed to destroy the confidence of the public. So far this all sounds rather flat and we have the idea that when the proper time comes Franklin Delano will destroy all they have done with about one of his famous heart-to-heart talks with the people. Being the first lady of the land evidently doesn’t stop Mrs. Roosevelt from enjoying herself and just one of the folks. Unheralded, she visited Indiana and enjoyed a night at one of our famous parks, Clifty Falls, near Madison, dropped into Prown county and then leisurly made her way across the state to visit the World's Fair in Chicago. She is a real leader and in her own way. The trouble with these fellows who talk and write about the national debt is that no one gives a solution as how to reduce expenditures. Everybody knows the national de.bt is climbing and there is no dispute to the fact that it will be burdensome to carry and liquidate. But America is rich and men, women and children must be fed. What the government is trying to do is to get' things started, hoping that good business conditions will see increased employment and earning power. In another month officials of tax- i ing units will be busy with budgets and levies for the next year. The tendency and general sentiment is for a lower property tax and every effort should be made to reduce j the rates, judgment and economy i being used in all cases. It's foolish to cut too much and then have to add to the levies in another year. Actual needs should be totaled and where revenue from the gross income and other state taxes make it possible to reduce the property levies the cuts should be made. James A. Moffett, vice-president of the Standard Oil Company of California has assumed a new job and a big one. He is the new housing administrator for the New Deal government and hopes to get so much pep in this house building and repair campaign that five million men will be given employment for many months and that's certainly a whopper job for any one to undertake. Moffett is a young man with plenty of ability, energy and good sense and every thing needed to make things go. He assumes the place with a degree of humility that should make him popular. 0 ♦— • Answers To Test Questions

Itubinoff on touring the country with him. He painted glowing pictures of the money to be made in auditoriums and so easy It would be just like finding it The talk went on. with Cantor suggesting this idea and Rubinoft that, until finally both

men had to stop for breath. Marjorie, who had been listening, rushed up and displayed her notebook covered with scribbles. "Look daddy,” she cried, "I’ve got the first three programs already.” In the whole United States, there are probably not more than two dozen authentic autographed pictures of Greta Garbo and the retiring Swede is getting tougher and tougher. , I like to remember, though, one occasion upon which La Garbo showed true graciousness. M. G. M. had brought a little German girl, Eva Von Bern, over to Hollywood to be a new foreign sensation. She just didn't have the stuff and, after playing one lead with lack Gilbert, they told her she’d have !o go home. Eva was heart-broken ind one of her chief disappointments was that she hadn’t even met her idol, Greta Garbo. A sympathetic studio employe took some pictures to the Swedish star, explained the situation and pleaded that she autograph just one so that little German Eva could show it to her friends back home. La Garbo was touched. She sent for Eva to come to her on the set rad comforted her: "You don’t know how lucky you are to be sent home and out of all this.” Then, to the eternal thrill of the little German admirer, she autographed a picture: “To my friend, Eva Von Bern.” And Eva also would he thrilled to know that, not more than three or four persons since then, have been io honored. Look out for James Gleason's first novel which will appear on the fall lists. Jimmie has made thousands from his two plays, “Is Zat So?” and “The Shannons of Broadway”, but this is his first whack at ihe new medium. He's writing a story of a western polo star and much of the action will take place ■n Hollywood. , Another film celeb (she was better known a few years ago) to take up writing is Mary MacLaren.

At'tei finishing work in “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch”, Mary will giv< up acting and devote her whole tim« to scenarios. ——, * Though he Is tough-skinned, one of Hollywood's leading producer! would cringe to hear the descriptlor a certain writer gave to him recently. The scriblcr told a newly arrived and inquiring fellow author: “It a child is born after a terrible struggle and it is a perfect child that So-and-so comes into the room hits it with a hammer and says: 'J don't like it.'" It’s an amusing story they tell o! Mae West. About the pair of studic

employes who came to see her in her apartment Mae was sick and lying in her immense Louis XV bed, with its ornate canopy, reflected in ceiling mirrors. Mae offered her guests a cigaret (she doesn’t smoke herself) and discovered that the box was empty.

J Raising her voice, Mae cried: “Libby 1” No maid was forthcoming, , so the star shouted again. , Suddenly, with a look of recollec- , tlon, she leaned over the side of the ' bed, produced one of those swank, , Inner-apartment telephones and , spoke quietly into it. Replacing the instrument, she. , gave a big smile. ' “Have we got service?” she said. * What well-known star is having j the time of his life getting the lowdown on what his friends think of t him through a gadget on his outside t gate. As soon as the bell rings, a t radio amplifying system is turned on j so that the guests can announce themselves.
