NEW WORRIES BESET FARLEY AS 1936 NEARS
Michigan Is Now Foremost Problem of Democrat Party Chief. Bv Unit'd Preen WASHINGTON, April B.—Postmaster General James A. Farley's bright prediction of a Democratic sweep next year Is darkened by trouble spots on the political map. Michigan Is the foremost Democratic problem. There are apparently authentic reports that a survey of New England industrial states has just revealed evidence that New Deal prestige in those areas has slumped considerably in the last three months. Democratic strategy in Michigan must center on putting in the field a strong ticket headed by a gubernatorial candidate of. proven votegetting ability. The outstanding campaigner among Michigan Democrats is FYank C. Murphy, now serving as governor general of the Philippines. Senator James Couzens (R., Mich.) is up next year, but political forecasters count him a winner regardless of opposition. Unless Far’.ey can repair party machinery In Michigan and overcome scattered weaknesses elsewhere he may be denied next year an opportunity to run for Governor of New York. That is believed to be his immediate political ambition. But President Roosevelt would not accept his resignation as campaign manager of National Committee Chairman unless the political situation were satisfactory. Patronage May Help Republicans regai and Michigan Hast November after lr ...lg the state by 132,000 votes to Mr. Roosevelt in 1932. In local elections this week Republican candidates took about everything In sight. Patronage proto bly will be the means by which the Democratic high command will attempt to revive the Michigan party organization. Fortunately for Mr. Farley, terms of Republican postmasters are expiring. Some 74 expired recently and 100 more Jobs soon will be vacant. Better than those jobs are the collectorships of customs and internal revenue, both awaiting deserving Democrats who can help put Michigan in the Roosevelt column next year. Weakness in New England is not particularly damaging to Mr. Roosevelt’s prospects. He lost Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire and Connecticut in 1932 and won Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Democrats carried all but New Hampshire and Vermont last November. Party leaders claim privately that they can win in 1936 with only one big eastern state, if necessary, and explain that state would be Pennsylvania. of which they are more confident than of New York. Counting on Midwest Democratic confidence that M r - Roosevelt will be re-elected is based in part on belief that the Middle West will remain loyal to the source of PWA and Agricultural Adjustnrent Administration checks and o;her farm benefits. Mr. Farley does rot believe there will be a formidable third party movement despite .he efforts to rouse a Farm-Labor rebellion to the New Deal. “I don’t think Father Coughlin or Huey Long will make any difference in the Middle West,” Mr. Farley said at his first press conference since January. I think it will be a two-party fight.” ’’What’s the ticket, Roosevelt and Garner?” he was asked. ’’Well. I think I read that somewhere in the paper,” chuckled Mr. Farley. “Are you going to run the next campaign?” “I don’t want to answer that. I don’t know what I am going to do in the next campaign.”

NEW DEAL IS HARASSED BY OWN MEMBERS
Conservatives, Headed by Glass, Break Forth to Worry Roosevelt. BY THOMAS L. STOKES Time* Special Writer WASHINGTON. April 6.—Woodrow Wilson was plagued by “a little band of willful men," as he called them, who wrecked his dream of United States entry into the League of Nations. They were, naturally, Senators. Today President Roosevelt finds his program frequently obstructed by a little group, likewise Senators, within his own party. It is a sort of hornet's nest. The king hornet—and the most effective —is the 77-year-old Carter Glass of Virginia, who likes nothing about the New’ Deal honey tree and snipes at its blossoms at every opportunity. President Roosevelt’s long and arduous struggle with his works-relief bill, in which Mr. Glass was the outstanding obstructionist, revealed just what a small band can do, and, by the same token, forecast a constant fight henceforth to push other major Administrations measures through Congress. Southerners Head List The group is composed largely of conservatives, Southern conservatives of the “old-fashioned democracy” type. But it embraces also such a figure as Huey Long of Louisiana, who is trying to attract the radical fringe to his banner; Pat McCarran of Nevada, who is champion of labor and poles apart from Mr. Glass on most issues, and Alva Adams of Colorado, who may be found on both sides of the fence at times. Senator Glass held his nose and breathed anathemas through the comer of his mouth as he piloted the w'orks-relief bill through the Senate, for it was a bad odor to him from preamble through the whereases and down to the last period. Senator McCarran tied up the measure for days with his prevailing wage amendment; Senator Long tried to load it down with all manner oi fancy political gee-gaws, while Senator Adams and Harry F. Byrd of Virginia, who is a true colleague of Senator Glass, attempted to slice the appropriation and transform it into a straight-out “dole” bill. Confused by Revolt This revolt so confused Administration leaders that other Democrats were encouraged to flash their real conservative colors, throw off their masks, and jump on the heap with Republicans. So the Senate sat back astonished this w'eek as Walter F. George (D., Ga.) opened up for the first time in months and ripped into the Administration agricultural program, branding Secretary Henry A. Wallace unfit to remain in the cabinet. It listened with some amazement as the still boyish Millard F. Tydings Os Maryland wiped the almost perpetual grin from his face and frowned heavily on the “alphabetical monstrosities” in a scorching philippic against the New Deal. Josiah W. Bailey of North Carolina next joined the attack on the cotton processing tax. Senator Royal S. Copeland of New York is also, on occasion, a thorn in the Administration flesh. Postmaster James A. Farley yearned to lick him for renomination last fall, but he discovered that the doctor’s health hints had warmed the hearts of too many voters. Glass Loved by All The recent unmasking of figures who had disliked the New Deal but kept their counsel under the stress of Roosevelt popularity serves to disclose the wide range of view within the Democratic party and to emphasize the difficulties which the President and his leaders face. Most effective of the whole group of dissenters within the party is Senator Glass. His individuality, his sudden squalls of temper, his salty quips have made him a sort of Democratic pet. Though dislikthe new deal, he is very proud of President Roosevelt personally and enjoys Mr. Roosevelt’s title for him —“unreconstructed rebel.” His fellow Democrats admire and love him. Despairing leaders, nevertheless, are about in the frame of mind today where they would trade him |to the Republican conservative ! league for a couple of left-fielders.

HERR GARAGE GIVES VARIED AUTO SERVICE
All Types of Repairing Obtainable Under , One Roof. Don Herr, owner of the garage bearing his name, located at Ken-tucky-av and Maryland-st, in a statement today said; “Congratulations are due to the auto manufacturer and dealer who are doing their largest volume of business in six years. "Notwithstanding the fact that all these new cars are being sold, there are literally millions of automobile owners who mostly for financial reasons find It necessary to make the old car run for another year or two. “We have a complete service which we are soliciting those motorists to avail themselves of. We have developed a type of reconditioning service to suit the pocketbook of most any automobile owner. Various repair services have been developed which have greatly lessened the financial outlay necessary in buying the service. Repainting Costs Less “As an example, comparable to the difference between a tailor-made suit and an inexpensive “hand-me-down,” so can you have the appearance of your car improved by a twocoat lacquer job and restriping at a most moderate price. “Many cars whose oil consumption Is excessive can be reconditioned through the use of lately developed rings and piston expanders, and in many cases eliminate the necessity of an expensive repair job. “The policy of the Don Herr Cos. is to give honest advice in matters of this sort to the automobile owning public. To repair some of today’s cars which are running on the streets would result in an economic loss to the owner, and we welcome the opportunity of discussing this question with any and all owners who feel In the need of service and who find it necessary to continue running the old car for another year or so. Various Services Offered “Under one roof and one overhead we believe that we can boast of having the most complete all-inclusive one-stop service In the state of Indiana. “The following services are offered at all times; “Twenty-four hour mechanical service, 24-hour parts service, body and fender repairing, frame and axle aligning, top and upho’stery service, complete paint and reflnishing service, complete motor and chassis overhauling, auto laundry and lubrication, tires and batteries, 24-hour crane-in and tow-in service, and many other similar services.

Air Conditioning Unit Added to Furnace Increases Home Comfort
Hall-Neal Firm Displays New Device at City Realtors Event. Pictured here is L. W. Clark, an official of the Hall-Neal Furnace Cos., 1324 N. Capitol-av, pointing to the air conditioning unit employed in conjunction with the Victoraire furnace, now on display at the Realtors Home Show, in the Manufacturer’s Building, Indiana State Fairground. Mr. Clark states: “We've heard a great deal during the past year about air conditioned homes, and while Mr. and Mrs. Home Owner sense the fact that air conditioning adds much do living comfort, it does seem to be one of those mysterious things that we enjoy without knowing exactly what it is or how it functions. “So let’s take this thing called air and watch its pn gress from the raw material to the finished product known as conditioned air. The dictionary tells us that air is a gaseous substance composed mainly of oxygen and nitrogen, surrounding the earth. Sometimes .this natural air is too warm for comfort, sometimes too cold; frequently it is dry; then again it may be too moist. There are times, too, when it is decidedly dirty. “Now let’s take a quantity of air and put it through the Hall-Neal conditioning and temperature regulating process, the purpose of which is to make it just right for the comfort and pleasure of mankind. “First, the air passes through filters which remove foreign substance. It becomes immaculately clean. Then a device called a blower which transports it to an apparatus, which neither cools or heats it. During the warm months of the year the air is cooled; but extreme care is taken that the air temperature is well within the comfort zone. In winter, of course, it is heated to the point of comfort. “Following the cooling, or heating processes, there’s another important step to be taken. The air must pass through a humidity control. Already cleaned and cooled, or warmed, it must now be given just tne right amount of moisture to make it really comfortable. Exhaustive scientific study has determined what this amount is. If the air is too dry, the humidity control gives it moisture; if it is too wet, moisture is taken from it. This important device is the final step in placing the air within tne comfort zone and in maintaining what is known as a balanced temperature. “Now the air from a Hall-Neal Air Conditioner is ready for human use. A blower picks it up and carriers it to airducts, and through these it passes to the living quarters. The occupant, of course, is utterly unaware of what Is going on, but there is no question as to whether he likes it. He senses a degree of comfort that he never experienced before—a home becomes still more enjoyable. “With the Hall-Neal Air Conditioner you have perfect weather at all times. The atmosphere is as clean, fresh and cool as a mountain breeze; there is nb dust or smoke, and as open windows are no longer necessary, outside noises are reduced to a whisper.” Painting Is Profitable There is no more profitable investment for a property owner than keeping his buildings well painted The owner of a house that is well built and well painted seldom has to call in carpenters or tinners. It costs heavily for repairs when painting is neglected.

Creosote Protects Wood Against Termite Damage
Reilly Products Used to Treat Lumber Before Use in Building. For several years the Reilly Laboratories, in co-operation with the Termite Investigation Committee of California, has studied all phases of the protection of wood against termites and decay. The combined scientific investigations have resulted in anew and effective product, known as Reilly Transparent Penetrating Creosote. According to officials of the Reilly Tar and Chemical Corporation, the studies by the committee have indicated that the creosote affords complete protection against termites, both in eradicating the termites already present and in assuring against future infestation. The rapidity with which the creosote penetrates into the wood is another of its characteristics, and the ease with which lumber can be treated is an outstanding development in the field of wood preservation. Wood treated with the creosote is said to remain practically unchanged in color, and its surface is not oily. Immediately after treatment the lumber is ready for use, and 60 days after it is in place the lumber can be painted, teste show. Because Reilly creosote contains no water, the preservative can be used to treat seasoned lumber without affecting its moisture content. It can also be used on glued stock without affecting the strength of

BORROWING OF MONEY CALLED AID TOJREDIT Manager of Loan Company Explains Benefits of Service. Through thirty years of service the Capital Loan Cos. has come to be recognized as one of the leading loan companies of this city. Located a'; 207 Kresge Building, 41 E. Washington-st, this large business concern serves all classes of persons, C. C. Lloyd, company manager, points. “Our clientele includes people from all walks of life,” she states. “We have been able to help laborers and the salaried man as well. Thera comes times when all types of persons need money to discharge their obligations. Governments must borrow. The rich and poor must obtain funds to maintain their credit. So we have come to the aid of those who find it necessary to obtain capital to invest or to pay debts. “We have refinanced many automobile deals, enabling purchasers to pay off the balance of their accounts in a lump sum and then repay us in smaller payments. This gave them an opportunity to pay other pressing debts. Weekly or monthly payments may be arranged. “Such a method of payment does not work a hardship on the borrower and frequently saves him from making a real sacrifice in order to obtain the cash he needs.”
