science, based upon definite knowledge relating to the behavior of air under all known conditions, Lewis asserted. The newest and probably most interesting application of manufactured air is in its application to railway passenger cars, but a most fertile and almost untouched field will be found in homes. While an average of 32,000 homes valued at SIO,OOO and over are built annually in this not more than 1,000 have been air-conditioned in the last three years. And there are less than half a dozen office buildings out of 6.500 which are airconditioned. Hospitals, churches, and hotels are conspicuous for the absence of any systems. All this, Lewis feels, points to a great growth in this vital industry, and he predicts tha£ within a few years no hospital will be built without these benefits. # „ Not only will health "be bnefited, but an excess of something like 3,000,000 additional kilowatts of power will be utilized, offering an outlet for additional electric energy. Since ice is used for conditioning air in homes and small installations, Lewis sees in manufactured weather the salvation of the ice industry, now suffering from competition offered by the household, mechanical refrigerator. Over 150,000 tons of ice, valued at a wholesale price of $600,000 will be used, he predicted.

FIGHT LOOMS TO LIBERALIZE HOUMLES Illinois Congressman Will Seek Change to Prevent ‘Bill Smothering/ By Rcrippt-lloicard \eicspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—A freer and more representative house would result if its rules were liberalized, in the opinion of Representative Henry T. Rainey of Illinois, candidate for Democratic floor leader. Representative Rainey has but one change to propose now, and that would allow 100 members to birngs a bill out of committee and to the floor for a vote by signing a petition. The present G. O. P. rule calls for a majority, or more than twice as many, to accomplish this. The Illinois Democrat, whose shock of white hair and flowing tie mark him among the 435 representatives, believes other rules will

have to be changed; but he is not yet ready to name them, believing experience in the house under Dmocratic control best will demonstrate what further liberalizations are necessary. Under the present set of house rules, a bill when introduced is referred to a committee, which must act favorably before the measure can reach the calendar. Even then the rules committee has to decide when and if the bill can be brought up for a vote, and how much time shall be allowed for debate. The present right of petition seldom has been invoked because of the large number of petitioners necessary. This is one of the “gag” rules Democrats and Progressives have been protesting for years. Rainey believes there will be general support of house Democrats in an effort to liberalize the rules, and that Progressives will join in the fight. For this reason, he does not believe that the rules controversy will be made a partisan matter by any affirmative action of the Democratic caucus. Death Held Accidental By Time* Special FT. WAYNE, Ind., Nov. 20.—A verdict of accidental death has been returned in the case of Charles E. Berning, 45, a World war veteran.
