NEW TRAILERS AUTO SHOW HIT

Have Almost Everything, Writer Finds, Even Quarters for Servants.

They've got everything in the fancier new trailers except formal gardens, bridle paths and navigable streams. Parlor, bedroom and bath are standard equipment. One of them on display at the Auto Show in the Manufacturers’ Building at the Fairground, has separate isolated quarters for two servants! At the back of the coach, with separate entrance, the quarters contain a chest of drawers, individual wash basin and a day seat for two that converts into a doubledecked bed at night. Everything in a trailer doubles for something else. Tables become beds at night; seats become pillows; kitchen sinks become tables. And honestly, some of the larger ones are bigger than efficiency apartments. Practically all trailers have builtin yadios, and all the larger ones have stoves with ovens. in them which trailer men say will bake pies and biscuits like the stoves at home.

KISS WORTH $5500, WOMAN TELLS JURY

What price a kiss? Mrs. Opal Heid, 36, of Sunshine Gardens, said the answer should be $5500. She has sued Carl R, West, an optometrist in a downtown jewelry store, for that amount, and the case was presented today to a jury in Superior Court 5. Testifying she went into the store to get her glasses repaired, Mrs. Heid charged Mr. West kissed her. “Because of this I suffered a nervous shock and much embarrassment and have lost a great deal of weight,” she said. “I never even attempted to touch the lady,” Mr. West declared from the stand.

homes on wheels, for year-around living. Some are specially designed for hunting and touring trips. Anticipating the law, they have trailer brakes, electrically operated. The trailer business, reduced to statistics, is impressive. At the end of 1935, after about five years of custom and home-made production, there were in use approximately 100,000 trailers.

There now are-about 250,000, and.

trailer statisticians predict that the 1937 total will reach 625,000. In 1935, three-fourths of the trailers were home built and about onefourth were factory made. This

year, it's about half and half. Next year three-fourths will be factory and one-fourth home made, the trailer men say.

0’'MAHONEY BILL GETS SPOTLIGHT

Senator Proposes Law to Make Big Corporations Incorporate Federally.

(Continued from Page One)

thinks it might well be called 16 public attention now.

The idea is simple, that corporations doing interstate business should be incorporated Federally. In other words, if a concern expects 10 do business in a number of states, Congress ought to lay down the terms under which that corporation shall act. It seems only common sense.

What do we have now? Corporations pick out an easy state and incorporate there. Many of them pick on Delaware. In one office building in Wilmington, Del., the names of some 10,000 corporations will be found on the wall directory in the lobby. The directory list spreads all around the lobby. All of these 10,000 corporations have their “home offices” on the tenth floor of that building—Standard Oil of New Jersey, Radio Corp. of America, the United Corp., National Dairy Products, the Pullman Co. They have no “home offices” there except in the technical legal sense. It is a racket. Delaware laws do not require any directors to live in the state, directors’ meetings and stockholders’ meetings do not have to be held in the state. A corporation incorporated in Delaware can do business all over the world. Directors do not even, under Delaware laws, need to own stock in Shelr cothpanies. Everything is free easy: You can read an entertaining account of these circumstances in the “Lords of Creation,” by Frederick Lewis Allen. The American Telephone and Telegraph Co. controls more wealth than is contained within the borders of 21 states, according to Irving Brant in “Storm Over the Constitution.” United States Steel and the Pennsylvania Railroad are empires in themselves. They are bigger than half a dozen states. In some instances they control the life of whole communities. Corporations are launched under some loose authority granted by one state, and set free to roam at will over the whole nation.

- Hold 53 Per Cent of Wealth

According to Senator O’Mahoney, more .than 53 per cent of the corporate wealth of the nation was held by 618 corporations in 1932." Many of these corporations are more powerful than the states from which they derive their existence. Some of them have more employes than many states have inhabitants. Only seven cities have as many families as are dependent upon U. S. Steel for either profits or pay. Any one of 28 states does not have real estate assessed at the value of this concern’s plant investment. It is a nation within a nation. Taft thought such gigantic entities should be controlled by the Federal government. Many people think so when they stop to consider the matter at all. That is why Senator O’'Mahoney’s revival of the Taft idea is catching on in Washington. It provides a method, widely recognized as a fair and logical one, whereby the Federal government can insist that interstate business comply with certain standards as to elimination of child labor and maintenance of fair working conditions and of financial methods

which protect the rights of stock-

holders. That is more than state incorporation laws do.

Rays Yield Unknown Particle; Potent Drug Found in Glands

Nobel Physics Prize Winner Reports New Find at

Science Meeting.

(Copyright, 1936, by Science Service)

PASADENA, Cal. Nov. 17.—Discovery of an unknown particle that may prove be as’ important as the positron whas made known by Dr. Carl D. Anderson to his California Institute of Technology colleagues here just a short time after he was notified of his sharing in the 1936 Nobel physics prize for his discovery of the positron. Dr. Anderson has found that the cosmic rays include electrical particles which make tracks much like electrons but .are uite different from anything heretoOIore recognized or investigated. The particles seem to have an unusually great penetrating power and do not readily knock electrons out of matter at the rate equally energetic electrons do. ] In many thousands of cosmic ray photographs obtained in Pasadena, on Pike's Peak and at Panama, there are many examples of presumedly ordinary electrons (the fundamental particle of electricity, negatively charged, discovered years ago) which produced showers of secondary particles as they pass through the apparatus. But there is also another phenomenon, lone tracks that traverse lead plates without producing any perceptible secondary effects. These are the hitherto unknown particles. Dr. Anderson does not venture to guess what the unknown particles might be but.he ted that they probably hay e charge as. electrons a not the same

mass. Discovered Positron This latest report by Dr. Anderson

-was received with great and serious

interest by his colleagues. He often

has produced conclusive proofs for

startling results, and he has the reputation for careful interpretation of results. His latest report undoubtedly will create a stir in scientific circles. Th eexperiments which led Dr. Anderson gradually to his conclusion were carried out .in collaboration with Dr. Seth Nedermeyer and Dr. R. A. Millikan, himself gq Nobelist and head of the California Institute of Technology. Dr. Anderson discovered the position or positive electron in 1932, also during cosmic radiation researches.

Hormones Made in Body Can Destroy Bone Tissue, Parley Told.

BY DAVID DIETZ Times Science Editor CHICAGO, Nov. 17.—Action of a drug or hormone manufactured within the human body which is so powerful that overdoses cause the bones of the skeleton to melt away was described! here at the opening session of the autumn meeting of the National Academy of Sciences by Dr. F. C. McLean and W..Bloom of the University of Chicago. Their paper was the most spectacular of a group of important announcements in that most fertile and amazing field of modern medical research, the ductless glands. These glands, scattered in various parts of the body, are each powerful drug factories, manufacturing chemical substances known as hormones which control growth, sexual characteristics, the rate of breathing, even the beating of the heart. Drs. McLean and Bloom dealt ‘with the hormone secreted by the parathyroids, four tiny glands associated with the thyroid. It long has been known that when tumors stimulated the parathyroids to excess activity, a disease developed in which the bones of the body degenerated. The two Chicago experimenters studied what happened to the bones of rats when excess doses of parathyroid extract were injected into their skins.

Damage is Righted

"They found that tHe changes in

the bones were so profound that the living cells within the bone masses underwent changes, being transformed into different types of cells. While the bone material itself degenerated -and was reabsorbed into the surrounding tissues, the os-| teoblasts, the living cells which create the bone material, were transformed into another type of cell, the so-called fibroblast. Some of the osteoblasts even were transformed into types of cells which destroy bone. Even more amazing was their discovery that continued injections of the parathyroid hormone tended to right the damage and began to transform “the ‘fibroblasts back into their original form of bonebuilding osteoblasts. -

The Roosevelt “good neighbor” policy has made too profound an impression to be' easily ‘wiped out. Other Administrations have spoken softly ‘before. But Roosevelt has acted. He has recalled American Marines. He has refused to intervene when intervention was expected and, sometimes, requested. He has been conciliatory in debt matters. He has abrogated the Platt amendment with Cuba. He has acted to improve trade relations throughout the

net income tax he would pay $5, at was pointed out. A wage-earner making $2000 a year pays $10 gross income tax, while under the net tax he would pay $2. The grocer, however, whose net income and gross income differ, would be relieved of much of his present taxes under a net income tax. Organized grocers and small merchants began their battle against the gross income. tax with a march upon the Statehouse March 11, 1936, during the sessions of the General Assembly. During the primary election the Indianapolis association indorsed one Democratic and one Republican candidate for the House of Representatives. The Democratic candidate, James McCaslin, Indianapolis grocer, was elected. During’ the campaign he advocated amending the gross income tax law. The Indianapolis association represents retail grocers, wholesale grocers and salesmen, Mrs. Stevens said. Machinery for contacting legislators on their attitude toward the present gross tax now is being put into operation. “We feel that Mr. Townsend will give us a fair hearing, because the association worked with him on the milk control bill,”/Mrs. Stevens said.

Ballard Clark, assistant commonwealth * attorney; said today. Denhardt, former Lieutenant Governor, has been free on $25,000 bond ‘pending, “hearing on murder charges. Mr. Clark said a murder case defendant can not be bonded except by consent of both sides, and that the commonwealth will withdraw its consent in Denhardt's case unless he tells his story.

A telegraphic pledge of $1250 from Mr. and Mrs. Booth Tarkington today spurred Indianapolis Community Fund workers in their final drive for $172,799.68 to reach their goal. The Hoosier author and his wife wired the subscription from their home in Kennebunkport, Me. With the time extended until Friday, the “mercy army” pushed on toward the goal of $745,742 today. What Harold B. West, campaign chairman, termed “steady progress” has brought the total pledged to $572,942.32, but that is only 76.8 per cent of the amount needed for social work agencies here next year, he said. Yesterday’s report showed new pledges for $101,232.17. Special gifts announced yesterday included one of $17,640 from the Indianapolis Power & Light Co. Other new large gifts included: John H. Aufderheide, $3000; Mr. and Mrs. William H. Thompson, $600; Mr. and Mrs. William H.
