Because J. H. Hites, superintendent of the relief agency at 309 East Ohio street, believes in granting requests made of him by those who come to the agency, George Cowherd, 23, of 330 Patterson street, today is enjoying an enforced thirty-day vacation on the Indiana state farm. Cowherd was sentenced by Municipal Judge Dewey Meyers yesterday and also fined $1 and costs after Mr. Hites had testified that Cowherd came to the shelter Wednesday and created such a disturbance that the police had to be summoned. Mr. Hites said that when he asked Cowherd to desist and told him he would call the officers, the disturber told him to go ahead, that was just what he w'anted. Mr. Hites, anxious to please, did so. Judge Meyers, also anxious to please, asked Cowherd where he wmuld like to be sent, but was unable to grant his request for shelter in the jail.

NOV. lfi, 1984

$500,000,000 IN NEW MONEY AIDS CHRISTMAS Depression-Weary Business Cheered in Increased Sales Prospect. (Convrithf. 19S bv Unit Ml Pre**> WASHINGTON. Nov. 16—Business indicators pointed today to substantial Christmas cheer of increased sales for depression-weary American business. A half billion dollars in “new money jangled in the pockets ot Christma., buyers. It came from increased federal funds pouring into the country to farmer and eitydwplier, higher pay rolls and more •Christmas club” money. Leading industrialists have inform'd Daniel C. Roper, secretary of commerce, that they are expecting a substantial increase in Christmas sales based on orders received. Government activities also reflected optimism. The treasury announced sale of nearly $17,000,000,000 of bonds by federal agencies, showing a belief that the bond market did not need further government support. In seasonal lines including gifts, \ the industrialists told Mr. Roper, the upward trend might amount to as much as 40 per cent, although the average increase of stable commodities will be less. Income Gains Revealed Present indications, commerce j department officials said, are that (the public will pay about the same j prices for their ties, socks, handkerchiefs and other gifts as last I year, while the Christmas turkey and other dinner commodities will be about 10 per cent higher. Official and unofficial statistics for October, i934. compared with the same month last year explained the industrialists’ optimism. These include; 1. Government spending in October reached $758,000,000, about $250,000,000 more than last year. 2. Farmers’ cash income climbed to $662,000,000. a gain of SIBO,000,000. 3. Manufacturing pay rolls ate in the neighborhood of $500,000,000 monthly, about a 4 per cent increase. 4. Retail establishment pay rolls are averaging $250,000,000 monthly, j a climb of $37,500,000. 5. About, 7,500,000 persons will reI reive "Christmas club” checks from I banks totaling $360,800,000, about I $36,980,000 more than last year. Pay Rolls Increase Shown Increase in pay rolls were reported also >n other lines of work. Officials pointed out that last No- ! vember retail sales dropped off I about 5 per cent over October, but | rose high above that mark in December. This year, they explained, they do not anticipate a November decline. The Christmas boast to business, i administration officials hope, will j boost total retail sales to $30,000,000,000 for 1934 or about $5,000,000,000 more than 1933. This, they explained, would be accounted for by about a in per cent increase in business volume and the same amount in prices. Other signs to which they pointed as barometers of improving conditions include a pick-up during October compared with October, 1933, of 11 per cent in department store sales. 11'i per cent in mail order sales, and 5 per cent in variety store sales.
