WEDNESDAY MARCH 13, Many problems were left for the new administration, but the boys in Washington are offering big odds that one of them is not the mechanical horse. TODAY By Arthur Brisbane Nature's Balance. Getting Foreign Trade. Another Waldorf. A Boy's Mainspring.

(Copyrighted 1929, King Peatur Syndicate Inc.) It is dangerous to interfere wit nature's balance, one thing killin others, all kept in bounds. Yakima counfy, Washington, ol fered a bounty (o e.vterniiiiat hawks and owis, and thousand were killed, (o protect game bird and poultry. Regulate Roller Skating The season is here when roller skating seems to lie the principal evening amusement of boys and girls, and older persons too, and it is the duty of the police authorities to take SUPERVISION OF THE SITUATION and add the element of safety io this enjoyment. Just what plan can be worked out is not known, but perhaps the most feasible would be the roping off of certain sections of well payed streets during specified hours and then have roller skating strictly confined to these localities. As it is the roller skaters are out on every paved street, a menace to motorists and with the element of danger ever present.

It is very easy for a child on roller skates to stumble or fall directly in the path of a motor vehicle and it is equally as easy for one. to SKATE INTO A PASSING MACHINE, inviting serious if not fatal injuries. This is the one thing that should be avoided and it can be avoided only by designating the 'time and the exact place where roller skating may be enjoyed. No one desires to deprive the children of Hamilton of. any pleasure, but everyone desires to enjoy'their pleasures in safety.

No Point Of Saturation A aw years ago the chief worry of the automotive industry was that the point of saturation would be reached and the demand for motor cars would decrease. Now E. P. Blanchtu-d, chairman, of the productive division of the American Society of Automotive engineers declares that during' the year 1929 the American -people WILL GO EJOWN INTO'THEIR POCKETS AND CHECKBOOKS for the astounding sum of SIX AND A HALF BILLION DOLLARS for cars, accessories and replacement parts. This would indicate that the point of saturation is far removed.

In fact there will be no saturation of tha motor market until a new race of men and women, created without the desire to buy new cars, is born and reared. Desire is the thing that keeps the automobile market at its high peak. Investigation' by government experts, examining liawk and owl interiors, found that the lived on grasshoppers', j'iqld mice and ground Equirrcls, all dangerous to man --especially' tho ground squirrels a spread bubonic plague. Yakima lias withdrawn the boun 'Kill off coyotes and foxes anc you encourage a plague of field mice and jack rabbits. 'Montana made a discovery.

The wisi plan is to destroy the objectionabli creatures by scientific means. Co rid of 'small vermin and the biggei nuiiances will disappear. How to get foreign trade- is an important question for American manufacturers, especially automobile makers. General Motors' plan is to buy- up i a European factories, continue their output and gral'l Chevrolet, Cadillac, on the foreign plant. on the contrary, starts, Ford plants from the ground up.

Newspaper publishers know that it is wise to buy a going concern. It diminishes "local resistance. 1 General Motors has bought biggest automobile plant in Germany, and supposed to have secured another plant in Italy. If Mr. Sloan, now in Europe, could get Morris in England and Citroen in France, he might have a formidable "General Motors of Europe." You Must Be Thin If you wish to be fashionable and with the spirit oC the clay yon must be thin and speak and act al- ivays terms of thinness.

Never was obesity so universally unpopular. Such words as "depth" and '-'breadth" are quite unspeakable in polite and less polite society. This especially holds true of the human figure. MOST STOUT WOMEN would "do anything" just now to conform wi-th the very modish svelte figure and many of them are doing everything they can to bring about that objective. So ultra slender is the vogue that some of the sweet things who a few months past were eating for weight have convinced themselves that they SHOULD HAVE DIETED.

Just to be lean the women are encasing themselves in rubber, using rolling pins for self reduction and making such other sacrifices as dieting and exercising. And some men are equally guilty. But other phases and institutions in life a're affected. THE MODERN SANDWICH is issued.in the thin India paper editions so much in vogue in the book publishing business and the restauranteur reports that the modern appetite is as slender as his sandwiches. Beauty In All Things Truth and beauty, the old couple, are to be joined by a third, not so easily identified, but possibly called utility or efficiency.

Among other examples of this psychology is the case of the automobile. It was not beautiful; therefore it was a good car. Its HOMELINESS WAS A VIRTUE. A car of distinctive appearance was suspected of concealing weakness under a disguise of prettiness. The automobile business was one of the first to respond to the changed attitude of people who acquired wealth, then education and taste for something to satisfy the eye.

Gradually every other line of business is showing the same tendency. The wonders of MECHANICAL IN- are no longer enough to please a public which has traveled and acquired a feeling for charm in its surroundings. People are no longer easily sold a -tiling which amazes them because it is turned out in vast quantities at a marvelous speed or because it embodies a NEW AND START- INVENTION. Factory owners have discovered that it is just as easy to turn out a good design as a bad one, once the pattern has been chosen, and the good one sells bettor. Increasing numbers of factories built for appearance well as utility and set in landscaped grounds are 'toned as further proof of the spread of belief in beauty I-TORTS TO BEAUTIFY GASOLINE FILLING STATIONS are visible everywhere.

At times the tourist hes- to approach to have his tank filled, fearing that the ma structure, surrounded by shrubs and neatly kept is a private residence. Commercialism can bo artistic and inspiring. New York's Waldorf Astorin, soon to lie torn down, will rise ngnin, stories higiij with 2,000 rooms, on Park nvenuc. The building, i by Schultze nml.Wonv- ur, architects, will he huilt hy L. HorwiU's Thoinpson-Starrctl coin- pnny.

It is proposed, us usual, to eclipse all other hotel construction. It is only fair to tell Mr. Booin- er who IniiUls the new hotel, that another is planned, iixty stories high. He should go highyr than 40 stories. Americans like to live and sleep as high up as possible.

When this writer built I i i i Tower, forty-two stories high, on Park it by far, the highest structure ever i for a habitation. Agents and builders gloomily, "You will hardly rent tha upper stories in the tower, the height will frighten tenants." Tho top stories were rented firstj before tho building was finished, and at new apartment rental of eleven dollars a square foot. Tho new Waldort-Astorin and tho i Tower will look like bungalows, compared with buildings already planned. Dr. II.

P. Clark, professor oC education nt the Teachers' College, says college education interferes with a boy's chance to earn a living. It sends him into, professions overcrowded and robs him oE. "daring" necessary to success. That will comfort parents un- a.blc to send boys or girls to college.

The important thing for a human being is to think for himself and to take his mental mainspring, unbroken, into tho world fight. Any system of education, religion or society a forbids youth to think for itself is a handicap. At a meeting arranged by Thomas t.ainont, of Morgan and Dr. Shirley W. Wynne, New York's Health' Commissioner, started a drive on diphtheria.

Forty-eight i i a prevention clinics were opened, and in Lwo diphtheria deaths had diminished by 32.3 per cent. Wilb iifio of antitoxin and the Schick test diphtheria might conceiva.hly become as slight menace as smallpox or leprosy. The main danger is a children, when ill, play with and olher animals.

STKWAUT Bureau OiJfrnf I'n-nr A Washington, Mar. 13, It is a a to think of an indc- (Hidunt politician us a radical not conservative. Yet a very ultra-uoii- scrvati a lean -back so far as, it, even in (he opinion of ordinary eunsci'va This, Tor instance, is a 'con- bi'rvative couii- dy. To be conserv- a i is to he "regular." A conservative however, who is oo conservative the majority just as irregular ns the idiculs, arc. arc in- epeudents both ways.

HERE AND THERE Do You Remember? When the James E. Campbell club was an outstanding political organization among the democrats, with headquarters in the old Music Hall, the Harrison school build- on South Second street? o-- Fire Alarms Some times the fire department is blamed I'or allegedly being eloiF in reaching a sometimes it is no a of the a but absolutely' the fault of the person alarm. A few days ago the department (jailed and the person making the call a 1 the Eire was a. certain number on "Heaton Ave- mit." There is no Heat OH a in 'Tamilton and (lie nearest i to it, in sound, at least, is Eaton venue and so the department went to I'-laton avenue to limit a fire on Ucatoii street. This wns absolutely io a the a but of -person sending the alarm.

It has' not been long ago that the department was distinctly called to 29 North street, the message ae.ing repeated so that no error would be made. Two companies made the run to 20 North street much to the surprise of the entire neighborhood and could not find tho fire. When tho companies were finally ordered back to their houses, the alarm sent in and the number, which was five squares further north, given correctly. Another instance of delay occasioned by the person sending in an alarm--and this happened very re- was where a man ran two squares to 3 telephone report a fire, when, there was a fire alarm box directly in front of his house. Here ho tboly the chance of an error when the means of calling the department was less than fifty feet But such is life.

New Company The Wall Street Journal, publication in the world of business, speaks of tho recently organized General Machinery corporation, in a recent issui? as follows: "Nilee Tool Works, which has been showing red in its a a reports for several has been taken orer by General Machinery which also acquired the Niles Gear Hoorai, Owens, Rentsch- Ipr and Hamilton Press whose pinnf'S adjoin the Niles Tool Works. In'exchange the Niles-Bc- ment-Pond received a large block of General Machinery A stock. This company manufactures a i types of steam engines, glass machines, presses, automobile body' parts, Diesel engines. and sugar machines. The three products last mentioned are in heavy demand and General Machinery 13 operating at or near capacity in most departments.

The Pacifism Of Burton Senator Burton's pacifism i a more of an embarrassment to tlie army and navy folk a any out- and-out radical's possibly could he. When the regulars rally in support of some "armament program" of the administration's, and Senator Norris or Senator Shipstcad or Senator LaFollcttc gets up it, everybody remarks, "Oh, well, he's a radical," and that's considercd'a pretty conclusive answer.

Senator Burton, however, is one of tho "old guard." In every ro- spoct except that complex of his concerning armaments and treaties, he's as reliable a regular as conieg to Washington.
