BURGLARY LAID TO BOYS' GANG Six Trailed to Homes Face Charge of Breaking Into Grocery. After wrecking' the interior of a Standard grocery at 548 South West street and carting away about 600 pounds of food and canned goods, six boys were trailed to their homes early today by police and arrested on delinquency charges. Led by a 16-year-old youth who faces a charge of burglary, the boys met at the store shortly after midnight, gaining access by chopping off the lock of a rear door. In the store they overturned counters, tore down shelves and scattered canned goods and vegetables on the floor. A crate of eggs had been overturned. Loot was carried away in burlap sacks, in addition to quantities of supplies which had been carried outside of the store. Police said they trailed the suspects to their homes by loot, which had been dropp'd as they made their escape. The alleged leader is Harvey Cloud, 16, of 749 South Missouri street. He is held in city prison. The others are held in the detention home.

‘Who Cares?’ Stetson Just Can’t Get Excited About Those Red Suspenders.

BY HELEN LINDSAY “TT seems rather hard to get exA cited over a question of red suspenders, when the monetary system of the United States has collapsed.” That was the comment of Paul Stetson, superintendent of schools, when he learned that 11-year-old Tommy Sefton, 4621 Rookwood avenue, was sent home Monday by Miss Anna Torrance, principal of School 86. Miss Torrance objected to Tony's appearance in rod suspenders, and sent him home to change to a belt. She told him that a “gentleman did not appear with his suspenders showing.” A boy’s trousers must be anchored. Stetson was positive on this point. It did ngt seem important to him whether the “anchoring” is done with red suspenders or a belt. “However, I can see how red suspenders might be very disturbing in a class room. Pupils of that age always are glad of an opportunity to giggle, and that may have been the case at the school. “Os course Miss Torrance probably is technically right when she says that gentlemen do not appear in public in suspenders. At least, when I was growing and learning etiquette they did not, and they probably did not in Miss Torrance’s day. "But times have changed in many ways, and perhaps the mode for suspenders alsc has changed.”

VAST CHANGES TAKE PLACE IN GEORGE V REIGN More History Made in 22 Years Than in Regime of Any Earlier Ruler. This is the third of a series of four stories about Klnit George of Great Britain. BY H. L. PERCY United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, March B.—More history has been made during the twentytwo years’ reign of King George than at any time since William the conqueror of Normandy started in 1066 the long line of Britain’s rulers. It has seen the birth of wireless transmission, the growth of electricity and automotive power to an extraordinary degree of efficiency; the development, of airplanes and the general speeding up of civilization. The biggest event undoubtedly was the World war. It changed Britain from the Victorian and Edwardian era of smug respectability to the more free and swift life of modern times. Succession of Governments It was the emancipation of woman. It also was the beginning of the democracy of Europe, with the slow disintegration of dynasties and the gradual breaking-up of that chain of royal intermarriages that closely linked mast of Europe with the British royal family. Since his coronation in 1919, King George has seen his empire mere firmly united by the Ottawa conference. He has had his constitutional powers curtailed, and his title changed to "king of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and of the British territories beyond the seas, defender of the realm, and emperor of India.” He has seen the advent of Brij tain’s first Labor government in I 1924, and he has seen the succesj sion of governments that followed it until the present National cabinet, headed by his close friend, Ramsay MacDonald. Empire Is Expanding He has seen the formation of the League of Nations, the world’s first effort for peace, and the numberless conferences that have followed to achieve and maintain peace. He. himself, openerl the second naval disarmament conference in London, 1930, and also the round-table conferences that strove to give India some measure of independence. He has seen Britain fall into line with most countries and adopt economic protection after nearly a century of free trade. He has seen his empire, representing one quarter of the earth’s surface, expand, not in area, but in population to some 463,000,000, roughly one quarter of the world's people. They speak 222 different lan- ' guages, and practice every religion j known to man from Christianity to i the voodooism of the African jun- ! gles.

M'ADOO ‘BUMS’ ALL OF CHAUFFEUR’S CIG'RETS Banker Sends His “Man Friday” to Inauguration; Gets a Laugh. By United Press NEW YORK. March B.—A Wall Street banker is telling this one: He went to the inauguration, but dismayed by the crowds, decided not to fight his way to the platform. So he made himself comfortable in his suite and gave his chauffeur his ticket for a seat with the dignitaries.

1. Yes. The art, literature, philosophy, science, religion, manners and morals of a man is the answer, except for technical problems of the philosophers as to “ultimate reality.” “pragmatic truth,” and the like. The explorer, climbing the mountain, finds truth in the climbing, not in the view at the top. The humble wife in the home doing her duty to husband and children, the workman doing the best job of work of which he is capable, the scientist searching for truth, all have found truth. For truth, as a living reality, is the fulfillment of our Highest functions, and we achieve the truth of life just to the degree that we do “the whole duty of man,” and fulfill our richest, personal possibilities. 2.

DRIVE STARTED TO RECAPTURE NATION'S GOLD Federal Reserve to Aim at Flow From Member Institutions. By United Press NEW YORK, March B.—The federal reserve bank started a national drive to recapture gold today, after being auhtorized by Secretary of Treasury William H. Woodin to open for limited resumption of rediscounts and currency payments to member banks. The federal reserve bank will assist member and non-member banks to conduct the limited emergency business authorized by Secretary Woodin only if they ‘are complying with the spirit and the purpose as well as the letter” of emergency banking regulations, and only if they turn into the federal reserve | bank all gold and gold certificates owned in their own right. Relaxation of restrictions in the federal reserve bank was announced | here during the night, and at first was interpreted as applying only to this federal reserve district. Must Be Emergency Later interpretations of the order received from Secretary Woodin. however, made it appear that it affected all federal reserve districts. The order specified that the federal reserve bank could advance currency to banks only if assured that there was emergency need for the assistance. The significant part of the order, however, was felt to be the provision that banks could receive aid only by showing full evidence of cooperation with the federal emergency regulations, and by turning over their entire gold supplies to the j federal reserve system, possibly to be used as backing for new currency issues. Expect Further Loosening Some bankers thought the move presaged a further loosening of federal reserve restrictions which might make it possible for New T York banks to resume business and open at least some parts of depositors’ accounts without resorting to clearing house scrip which is ready for distribution. In any event, banks prepared for business today under the Woodin 'imitation of business orders with far less uncertainty than prevailed Tuesday.

“Think what you save WHEN YOU BUY THIS HOME-LIKE LOAF” said Mrs. Dorothy Ayers Loudon at the Indianapolis Limes Cooking School "Almost everyone recognizes Bond Bread XjL as the fine, delicious, home-like loaf. But how many of us think of it in terms of actual money saving? Id I’ll tell you why: “In the first place, look at its fine, firm texture —compact and firm as the finest homebaked loaf. “You know, the moment you take a slice in your hand, that it contains much more nourishment, more food value in every slice, than puffed-up bread which may look larger. No holes and air-pockets, to waste butter as well as bread. No wasteful crumbling. Just all food and nourishment. “Furthermore, since science has found the method of putting vitamin-D into Bond Bread, it now takes its place as one of the most vitally important of all the protective foods —a rich, dependable and economical source of the toothguarding, bone-building vitamin. Making Food Money Go Farther “Bond Bread is really one of the least expensive of all foods, so when used in combination with other foods —such as meat, fish, vegetables, cheese, desserts —it naturally reduces the cost of all meals. Bond Bread, with its extra-value vitamin-D (at no extra price) brings the added nourishment of the sunshine vitamin, so scarce in most daily meals.” Ask your grocer for a free copy of the new Bond Bread Recipe Book, or write to Mary Stone, Home Service Department, Suite 975, General Baking Company, 420 Lexington Avenue, New York City.
