MILLION DOLLARS DIDN’T BUY MUCH FOR PENN STATE Vare in Congress Fourteen Years, but House Members Didn’t Know It. Times Washington Bureau, 1322 New York Avenue ■WASHINGTON, June 17. What did Pennsylvania's two million dol, lars buy in the way of a United Stateg Senator? It bought a short, fat, red faced man, dressed in a black business suit, hard-boiled shirt, loud purple tie and a derby hat. A man who parts his hair in the middle and who wears big diamond rings and dia-mond-studded cuff links. A man who looks like a typical big eastern city ward politician. That’s William S. Vare. Vare has been in the House of Representatives for fourteen years. Yet when he won the Republican nomination for the Pennsylvania senatorshlp the ! other day, the House members asked one another, in amazement, “What does tljjs man Vare look like, anyhow?” Inconspicuous In spite of his fourteen years in the House—and his purple tie —Vare i has been inconspicuous. He has been fen one of the important committees—appropriations—but what- : ever work he has done there has not : been spectacular or outstanding. He has spent a good deal of his time back in Philadelphia, where for two years he has been the big Republican boss. He inherited the boss-ship when his brother Ed died. The three Vares—George, Ed and Bill—were ' one of the political factions in Pennsylvania, -which tried to get control •of things after Boies Penrose died. The Mellon interests formed another faction interested In this same po- ; litlcal control. Today this control seenhs to be split up among them all, for W. L. Mellon is now Republican State chairman. Likes His Platform Vare likes to talk about his plati form, which he says consists of ■ modification of the Volstead act to a point where it will be honestly enforced —"bearing” out radical wets and "historical\ and giving evfery American his rights. Vare was born on a farm on Philadelphia’s South Side called the "Neck.” He has worked his way up from the days when he used to sell vegetables, run errands for Wanna, makers, and later when he and his brothers got contracts for cleaning the streets of Philadelphia, graduating eventually into ward and . later into city politics.

TWO MILLION FOR SENATOR CHEAP IN PENNSYLVANIA Control of Quaker State Politics Richest Plum in United States. Times Washington Bureau, 1322 New York Avenue WASHINGTON, June 17.—Why do they fly so high, these Pennsylvania political angels. Why are they willing to spend two million dollars to name a United States Senator? What do they expect to get in return. The answer is merely that control of the Pennsylvania politics is the greatest plum in these United States. There js nothing else like it. Seventh Heaven Not only does such control carry with it a gigantic spoils system, but it carries also jurisdiction over the greatest State industrial organization in the country. In spoils it is a seventh heaven. The State expediture is annually more than $500,000,000. There are 250,000 political jobs and civil service is a thing unknown. Industrially, Pennsylvania is. the greatest kingdom of financial barons the world has yet seen. The State s annual manufactured product, according to the 1923 census is valued at $7,381,687,533. New York State, with a $8,960,638,400 annual product, is more important industrially, but New York industry is’ centered in one city while Pennsylvania indiistry touches every nook and cifenny of the State. ’ Right Senators Needed For these barons there is nothing so important as having the right kind of men in the United States Senate. There must be men there capable of and willing to lead the fight to retain the high protective tariff—the 45 per cent duty on aluminum for example. • There must be men there able to fight taxation of industry able to influence the United States Treasury in tax refund cases. The right kind of Senator can return campaign to the spenders a dozen times over, and he can do it legally.

SAYS ELECTRICAL REFRIGERATION IS GAININGIN FAVOR F. E. Trosky, Merchant Plumber, Kept Busy With Installations. Electrical refrigeration is becoming popular in many of the finer Indianapolis homes, according to F. E. Trosky, merchant plumher, 2949 Central Ave.. one of the beet known plumbing merchants of the city. Trosky insists that modem housewives are demanding more and more in devices that lighten housework and the introduction of electrical refrigeration. he said had‘proven very attractive to them. During the past few weeks, Trosky has been busy installing new Universal coolers. This electrical refrigerator is one of the best on the market, he says. The cooler can be installed in old ice boxes or refrigerators with proper repairs made in insulation walls, as well assn. new boxes. The Universal cooler-has the refrigeration unit installed in the bottom of the cabinet with a brine tank on top to be used in freezing desserts and other food products. The cooler maintains a lofv temperature of varying degrees, and has proved very satisfactory in home refrigeration service, Trosky said. "Because of the installation costs, we recommend that persons install new coolers instead of equipping their old ice boxes with cooling coils,” he stated. The advance of the summer season is expected to increase the number of refrigeration systems installed by the firm, although a corps of workmen is being kept busy at the present, Trosky said.

BEAUTY, DUTY INCORPORATED IN CHURCHES TODAY Considerable attention is being given in these days to combination of beauty and utility in architecture, as well as adaptation of design to meet certain demands of locality and character, according to Fermor S. Cannon, architect, whose offices are located at 21 Virginia Ave. The modern trend in architecture is toward utilitarian designs In churches, Cannon pointed out, but grace of line is being used effectively to soften brick and cement as materials. “In the new churches we find there is a marked desire to build for service in a broader way than was evident a half century ago,” he said. "The modern church is being made more of a gathering place for old and young, and educational facilities are being considered as of primary significance. The old-style auditorium, which provided the only place in which schools could be conducted, is beitfg augmented by the consideration of a place to play as well as a place to learn. Leaders of church life are coming to realize the value of education and recreation along with a place for worship.” Cannon is the architect for the Woodruff Place Baptist Church, which will be constructed this late summer, fall and next winter, ready for Occupancy late next spring. The new church will be of Italian Gothic design, built of brick with plenty of color and ample facilities for the worship, educational and recreational phases of modern church life. Ue has designed a number of other churches in the city and lias come to be considered as one of the leading church architects of Indianapolis.
