SENATE WILL DELAY 2 WEEKS ON TARIFF BILL Gentleman's Agreement Is Reached by G. 0. P. and Democrats. BY PAUL R. MALLON Culled Prest Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. A gentleman’s agreement has been worked out between Republicans and Democrats to delay the opening of the senate tariff discussion from Aug. 19 until Sept. 3, because the senate finance committee Republicans now rewriting the house tariff bill will not have it ready for senate consideration until two weeks after the date originally set. Republicans have arranged to finish all rates in the bill by Aug. 19, when they officially will be made public and turned over to the Democrats for inspection. This courtesy was granted in order that the Democrats might be ready to debate the bill Sept. 3, the two weeks being allowed in order that they may familiarize themselves with its new duties. The arrangement had to be effected by a gentleman’s agreement because under the Constitution the senate can recess no more than three days at a time without consent of the house and the house will not return until September. The senate, therefore, will meet every third day after Aug. 19 and adjourn without doing any business until Sept. 3.

tried. Age is no barrier to the splendid merits of this medicine. Konjola works its wonders for those in the seventies and eighties as well as for young men and women and also may be given to the infant with ] amazing results. But get all the facts about Konjola. Call on the j Konjola Man. who is at Hook's Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, and have him tell you the wonderful story of this wonderful medicine. He will tell you of case after case wherein konjola brought the first and only relief. And is it not wise to profit by the experiences of others. Take, as a typical example of Konjola at work, the case of Mrs. Belle Weckerman, 3621 Kenwood avenue, Indianapolis, who said to the Konjola Man a few days ago: “Although I am spventy-one years old, and had suffered for the last twenty-five years. Konjola won another cf its splendid victories in my case. I praise this medicine publicly in the hope that others will profit from the lesson my experience teaches. “When I say I suffered for twentyfive years I mean that I was in misery day and night. Rheumatism and kidney trouble made life miserable and because of my age I felt that I would never see another well day. My legs and feet were so swollen. stiff and painful that I could not walk. Whenever I wanted to get around I had to have someone help me. I never left the house. During the night the weakness of my kidneys disturbed my sleep three or four times. Finally my food began to disagree with me and I felt that I was just about done for. Medicines were of no avail and this made me feel, all the more certain that my case was hopeless. "But konjola was so sincerely recommended that I decided to take one more chance for betterment. But I was taking no chance with Konjola. It was exactly what I always needed. It went right to worn, I could almost feel it. The surge of returning health became more noticeable every day. I realized that, at last, health was just around the comer in spite of my age and the length of suffering. It was se\eral months before Konjola completely ended all my ailments, but it did that thoroughly. Twenty-five years of suffering is at an end. No more rheumatism and my kidneys are strong and functioning as Nature intends. I walk any distance and sleep soundly every night. All this glorious health I owe to Konjola and I praise it with every breath.” Konjola contains no alcohol, no nerve-deadening drugs, no heart-de-pressing chemicals. It is all medicine, every drop and every drop works. The Konjola Man is at Hook's Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is meeting the public daily, introducing and explaining the merits of this new and different medicine.—Advertisement.
Inflated House Suspended From Mast to Cost 50 Cents Pound
Structure of Duralumin and Casein Will Stand Gale and Flood. BY JOE LOVE NEA Service Writer Chicago, Aug. 9.— “ Six-room house, constructed of best quality casein and duralumin, with j ninety-foot mast. Located 300 miles from city. Will sell for 50 cents per ; pound . . This may be a sample of the real I estate advertisements on the pages I of newspapers around 1939 if Richard B. Fuller’s new idea in homebuilding is successful. Fuller has designed a house which deos away with furnaces, wash days, and the need of a large purse. It i3 flood-proof, can stand up under a 1,000-mile gale, and will be sold by the pound. Here’s how it happened. Fuller, formerly in the building business, became dissatisfied with the style, time, and cost of house construction. Why, he argued, were houses always built of stone or wood, material used 5,000 years ago merely because they were close at hand? It’s an Inventive Age! “In this age of achievement and invention, it still takes from six months to a year to build a simple dwelling, inadequate at best,” he says. “In less time than this, squadrons of airplanes and destroyers, and a million and a half autos are built.” Seven years ago Fuller applied himself to designing a house that could be factory-made at a small cost, and erected quickly. Bricks are not used in airplanes or ships, yet planes withstand wind speed up to 350 miles an hour, he reasoned, so why not use the same materials in building a house? Built Like Airplane Fuller’s strange house is constructed “light, taut and strong after the manner of the airplane,” with a central mast of duralumin tubes (an alloy of aluminum). From the top of the mast a six-sided structure is suspended above the earth by steel cables. The walls and windows are of double sheets of casein, made in transparent, opaque or translucent form, with vacuums between to insulate the heat. The walls hold in the heat so that overflow of the lighting and power generating system are capable of heating the whole house. The lights, centralized in the masthead, are transfused by mirrors and lenses throughout the rooms in any intensity or color desired. The floors are of piano wire in spider- j web formation, overlaid with an in- j flatable covering. The partitions are suspended and the floor pumped up j to meet them and seal the edges. ] All the fitting is done by expansion, by inflating, rather than cutting to fit, with its attendant waste. All Sorts of Conveniences In the grill is a gas range, ice box and dishwasher. All shelves are revolving like the seats of a ferris wheel, making it unnecessary to reach for them. A basement washer will also be installed with a trapdoor opening into which single pieces of linen can be thrown and automatically w T ashed The beds are of rubber and can be inflated to the desired hardness. The first floor is reached by a simple elevator in the mast. Underneath the overhanging house is a garage or hangar for an airplane, Rolling metal curtains form the doors. Fuller says the complete house will weigh, when finished, about 6,000 pounds and can be sold at 50 cents a pound.

CRUSADE LEFT FLAT AGAINST BARE LEGS Yale Students at Mercy of Sun-Tan Fad for Next Two Weeks. Bn United Press NEW HAVEN, Conn., Aug. 9. ■Mrs. Annabelle Young, who thinks barlegged girls over 12 should be arrested, went away today and left the sun-tan controversy flat. “I’m going away and won’t be back for several weeks,” the Westville church worker told Clarence R. Rungee, chairman of the ordinance committee of the board of aidermen, “can you postpone action on my petition until I get back?” Rungee agreed to delay public hearing on Mrs. Young’s suggested ordinance against the bare leg fad. Mrs. Young believes the style unduly alluring and has entered the lists she explains, to protect Yale students from “preying females.” ASK MARRIAGE ANNULED High School Student Lived With Husband Less Than Two Months.

DRY HEAD SAYS LIQUOR RUINS agents; LIVES Enforcement Officers Lose Weight Sampling Poor Booze. Bn United Press CLEVELAND, 0., Aug., 9—The dry agent is a martyr to prohibition’s cause. His health is being ruined that the dry laws may be enforced. This description of the situation is given by John E. Wright, deputy prohibition administrator. c “Drinking liquor is ruining the health of the dry agent,” declared Wright. “As much as my men dislike to violate the spirit of the prohibition law by drinking liquor themselves, they are forced to do so in complying with their duties. To charge a bootlegger with possession and sale the dry agent must obtain actual evidence of selling. To get this evidence he must visit speakeasies, make friends with the doorman and the barkeeper and buy drinks. “Os course, a dry agent might go into a speakeasy, buy a drink and then spill it on the floor. But if he were observed he’d likely be killed before he left the place. So to do the job properly, the agent must only only buy liquor but drink it. After drinking the liquor, the agent goes out and gets a warrant. A raid follows.” Wright explained that the job of getting evidence is usually given to the new men on the force. “They come into the department and some relish the job of going out to do some drinking for Uncle Sam. But in six months time, we have to take them off the evidencegetting work. The kind of liqour they have to drink is so bad that their health is ruined. “I have a hard time getting agents just because of this condition.” Wright said one of his men lost 40 pounds in six months of liquordrinking, evidence getting. Another on the job two years was forced to take a leave of absence to regain health. TAKE PHOTOS OF MOON Moving Reproductions Taken at Princeton With Camera-Telescope. PRINCETON, N.

CITY CHANGES PAVINGJ’OLICY Losses Cause Engineer to Combine Contracts. The policy of dividing grading and paving contracts was discontinued by City Engineer A. H. Moore when it was learned that $1,132 extra was charged on the Arlington avenue project between Tenth street and Pleasant Run boulevard. James E. McNamara received the contract to grade the roadway last fall for $8,852. Winter months came on and the Indiana Asphalt Paving Company was not permitted to start

laying the concrete pavement until spring. Freezing, thawing and winter rains made reconstruction of the grad© necessary, costing property owners the additional sum. The Indiana company bid was $15,087. but the final cost was $21,088, $6,000 being allowed for grading lawns and other extras. Extra pavement was ordered on both sides of the Pleasant Run bridge after the contract was let, Moore said. The practice of splitting contracts for grading and paving proves unsatisfactory and expensive," Moore explained. The Great Pyramid of Egypt, or Cheops tomb, is the largest building in the world. It was originally 482 feet high and it covered an area of thirteen acres.
