50 CENTS MORE DAILY FOR ALL WORLD ‘CURE’ Demand for Commodities Would End Depression, Is Claim. /,'/ Nrripim-timrard \nrupaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.—1f the two billion inhabitants of the earth merely had 50 cents apiece more a day to spend, the depression would be over. Fifty cents a day more per person would create such a demand for commodities that farms and factories the world over would have to work overtime, and even then they could not kf/'p up with orders. So British Consul-General Camp- | bell told an audience in New York. I Technocrats talk in figures. Here, then, is another combination of digits proving that Mr. Campbell’s •’plan” would revolutionize the world and bring on Elysium no less surely than Technocracy. There arc in the world approximately 2,000,000,000 people. Half a dollar a day per capita would mean one billion dollars more per day to spend, or $365,000,000,000 per year, new money. T. S. Would Get Big Share Os this, the share of the people of the United States would be a ltitle over $6,000,000 a day, or $22,000,000,000 additional trade turnover every twelve months in this country j alone. But the 210.000 United States manufacturing plants listed in the 1929 census, only turned out $70,000.000,000 worth of products, and 1929 was this country’s banner year. Similarly, our 6,300,000 farms raised $12,000,000,000 worth of commodities that year, and our mines brought forth $6,000,000,000 worth of minerals. Farm, factory and mine, therefore, grossed $88,000,000,000 for their combined output, or far less than half | the turnover the extra 50 cents a day would mean to Americans. Fantastic Figures Cited The figures for Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy and other leading producing nations reveal equally fantastic perspective. And yet, with them as with America, only domestic consumption is taken into account. Our export business also would show* colossal growth. In Asia, alone, there are a billion people, who import a large portion of their manufactures and nearly all luxuries. Give the Chinese, Indians and other Orientals 50 cents a day more, and anew market worth $500,000,000 a day, or $182,000,000,000 a year. woul. spring into being. Os this, a no mean portion would go to buy j American and other exports. All Nations Would Profit In 1929, of the total world exports, America supplied nearly 16 per cent. If the Asiatics spent only one-fifth of their new income of 50 cents a day on foreign goods, our share of their trade would amount to $6,000,000,000 a year, or far more than all our exports to all the na- i tions of thi world combined j amounted to in the best year in j our history. The other producing nations similarly would lare well. The most all the the 102 exporting nations on the globe ever sold over their fron- > tiers in any one year amounted to ! only $33,165,000,000, or less by sev- { eral billions than the now povertystricken hordes of Asia alone could buy with their 50-cent pieces. INSTALLATION PLANNED Pythian Sisters* New Offirers to Assume Duties Wednesday.

Bob Burman’s Daughter Dares Death With Bad Luck Symbols

Girl Speed Wizard Wears Opal Ring and Father’s Old Numeral, 7.’ BY DONNA RISHER Time* Str.fT Writer NEW' YORK. Jan. 31.—Florence Burman, 23, wears an opal ring, the symbol of bad luck, and insists upon her father's old numeral ”7.” when she sets forth to establish an automobile speed record or win an outboard motor race. This daughter of “Wild Bob’’ Burman, celebrated auto racer of twenty years ago, who appeared in several Indianapolis Speedway races, and who sacrificed his life on a California race course to the god of speed, believes, she said today, that she can scare off death by her ill-luck tokens. “That is,” Florence qualified thoughtfully, ‘maybe I can hold him off a little until I accomplish the things I wish to do. Synonym of Death “But any one Is a fool,” she added succinctly, “who does not admit that speed and death are synonymous.” Florence Burman ought to know. Three times this winsome girl, who now r holds the outboard motorboat record for women with a speed of 48.867 miles an hour, and who has captured automobile road records in her home state of Michigan, has witnessed the toll speed has taken within the ranks of her immediate family. She was 6 when her father’s white racer “No. 7” roared down the Corona course in the ninety-seventh lap of the race, throwing a wheel and overturning. Burman was killed with two others, and six were injured. Uncle Killed in Race The shock of her father's death had not quite subsided when her father’s brother. Earl Burman, was killed in a similar accident on the track at Jackson, Mich. It was then Florence began to wear her opal. “I had nagged Uncle Earl for months,” Florence related, “to let me ride with him in a race. Tired of my pleas, he finally gave in and said if I would meet him in Jackson the day of the race I could take the ride. He was living in Flint.

Court Held at Sickbed in $25,000 Damage Trial

Illness of the defendant did not prevent jury trial today of a $25,000 automobile accident damage suit in superior court three. Superior Judge Joseph R. Williams ordered court held Monday afternoon at the bedside of William W.-Wilson. 814 North Sherman drive. Attorneys and Mrs. Marie Hadley, court reporter, took William’s evidence while he lay ill with the flue. A transcript of the evidence was read to the jury today. Mrs. Marie Ettinger. 22 North Gladstone avenue, mother of Charles Ettinger, chief deputy county- clerk, is plaintiff in the suit seeking damages from Wilson, branch manager of an oil company. She charges she was struck by Wilson's car while attempting to cross Gladstone avenue at New York street, Jan. 5. 1932. Testimony that, she must use crutches the remainder of her life

•‘Wild Bob' Burman “I read the wrong time table and missed the train to Jackson. Uncle Earl waited for me until time for the race. Then he entered without me, only to lose his life ten minutes after he had started down the track.” But the nerves of this remarkable family of Burmans were not affected. Florence's sister, Lugene, a hand- j some brunet in her early 20s, who j also had inherited her father's love j of competition, set forth to capture a road record between Detroit and Flint in 1928. A turn in the road, a cut-in of j another racing car, a crash and a whiff of smoke and beautiful Lugene j lay dead at her wheel. The accident occurred on Aug. 13, the very date on which her Uncle Earl had lost his life six years before. “After that,” observed Florence, “I added another bad luck symbol. I took father's ‘7’ as my own. I now insist upon the number on all my automobiles. My motorboat is No. 777.” Unable to resist the challenge of speed, youthful Florence went forth in her racing car to pit her skill against distance and time.. She broke the road record be-

was given the jury. She alleges she w r as unconscious at intervals for six weeks following the accident. Father Held for Striking Son After he is alleged to have struck his 19-year-old son with a poker following a quarrel with his wife Monday night, Frank Roger, 48, of 739 Ketcham street, was arrested by police on charges of drunkenness and assault and battery. The son, Frank Jr., was treated at city hospital for a severe head wound.

tween Detroit and Flint, considered a difficult course, especially for women, making fifty-five miles in fifty-nine minutes. Later she captured the record for the distance between Saginaw and Bay City and between Flint and Lansing. The first, a distance of fifteen miles, she drove in nine minutes. The second, a distance of sixty-two miles, she made in fifty minutes forty-one seconds. After that, her mother, Mrs. Bob Burman, who lives in Flint, induced Florence to take up motorboating. “It is less dangerous and just as \ much fun,” her mother said. Florence got a fast boat put on her opal and her numeral 7 and won her first race. She entered on an unfamiliar water course at Manistee. Mich., in 1931, the only woman against a field of eighteen men. “My boat did not actually turn over, but it was tipped to such an angle that the bottom showed most of the time. When i rounded the j turn, I drove with my head drag- | ging in the water, i must have | been a sight, horizontally speaking. “The men were so awe-struck they | forgot to put on speed and I carried off the record.”
