(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON People Still Eat | Commenting on the various phases | of business activity in the United| States, a leading trade review says the grocery business is in excellent shape and business is good. This authority comments that the grocery business in general was in a fair condition all through 1931 and was less affected than many other Ynes of activity by general condi- tions. Since the latter part of 1929, luxuries have constituted such a small percentage of the sales that most of the merchandise now handled is of a staple character and consists largely of the essentials of life. This has kept the fluctuation in the sales to- \tals much narrower than has been ‘the rule in some of the non-essential | industries. In fact, unit sales as a whole for 1931 compared favorably with the rec-| ord of the year preceding, with “some dealers reporting gains at the year- end. Trade in the farming districts) declined: appreciably, due partly to the unfavorable prices of farm prod- ucts and partly to the enormous yields \ of orchard products and other food supplies last summer. | The latter comment hardly holds) true in North Dakota because of low; yields last year, but there is no ques-| tion that the grocery business is one of the mot stable in the country. Af- . ter all, people must eat. | The inherent soundness of this basic business is indicated by the fact! that failures in 1931 were less than in| 1928, a so-called prosperity year. Oth- er factors brought out are the sharp downward trend in prices, both wholesale and retail, and the fact that chain competition has done lit- tle to affect the business of individ- | ual retailers in most parts of the; country. It asserts that the women! of the country are “growing a bit weary of the standardization of brands and of service that makes the stores as much alike as two peas in ‘The average reduction in retail) prices for the country as a whole is 37 per cent in the last two years. In No Hurry If the reactions of American news- ‘papers are anything like an accurate index, this nation will be in no hurry to grant independence to the Fili- pinos. A recent poll disclosed that only a few editors feel this is the proper) time to take this step which the na- tives of the islands are asking and the white residents are generally op- Posing. | In the North Atlantic states, 79( newspapers opposed independence, five favored it and 29 were indeterm- inate. In the South Atlantic states, the ratio was 30, 4 and-10; in the North Central states, including North Dakota, the ratio was 112, 8 and 37; in the South Central group it was 23, one and 15 and in the western states 31, 12 and 16. Reduced to percentages, 275 or 67 per cent were opposed to independ- ence; 30 or 7 per cent favored it and 107 or 26 per cent were uncertain. This would seem to indicate that the Filipinos have a long row of stumps to hoe before they achieve their goal. The commercial ties be- tween this nation and its dependency in the far Pacific are too strong to ‘be easily severed. Help the Tax Man ‘With the income tax paying season at hand, the federal bureau of in- | ternal revenue gives evidence that the + ecopomy idea is beginning to per- ‘tion in newspapers. ‘This year it em- the fact that there will be a about March 15 because of the entitled to the use for republication ; i and somewhat refreshing. The situation was accurately de- seribed by Mr. Buckner during his term as United States Attorney in making returns. Chief among the reasons for the delay was the pos- sibility that congress might enact a law changing the rates or the ex- jemptions applicable to 1931 incomes. Commenting on how the taxpayers can save themselves money by mak- ing accurate reports the bureau says: “When returns are first received in the office of the collector of internal revenue they must be verified for the purpose of de- termining their mathematical accuracy, Why not perform this task for the government? Tax- payers have no doubt reviewed their income returns and are sat- | isfied they are correct in every | particular. As an extra precau- tion they should go over them again and see if the computa- tions will stand the test of scru- tiny in the government office. When mistakes of this nature are made, refunds must be allowed if the error is in favor of the tax- payer. If the mistake means ad- ditional tax for the government considerable work must be ‘per- formed by the collector to assess the tax and bill the taxpayer for the additional amount. If the government can be relieved of this additional labor, and what is more important, of the additional expense, why not do it, because in the final analysis saved for t government is equivalent to its value in addi- tional tax. In helping the gov- ernment during these times we are helping ourselves and we owe it to our country and to our fel- low citizens to lessen the govern- ment’s burden wherever possible.” This is unusual, to say the least, A New Begging Racket ‘The mi ne Variety prints a dis- patch from Hollywood that is surely one of the oddest of all the news stor- ies produced by the depression, It is a story telling how panhandlers in the film capital have taken to hiring women and children to act as “sup- porting cast” for beggars. It works like this; a beggar will en-| gage a woman and child and will take them along as he goes down the street asking for quarters. Men who would ordinarily give him nothing grow soft- hearted when they see his supposed wife and child, and shell out liber- ally. The beggar, Variety says, can average from $10 to $14 a day in profit, after paying his “assistant” $4 a day. | The chief moral to be drawn from this little tale is: don’t give money to; street begs Make your contribu- tion to a regular charitable organiza- | tion and let it do the rest. | Busses and Railroads The way in which.the auto can cut into railroad passenger traffic. was never so strikingly illustrated as in a petition which the Wheeling and Lake Erie railroad recently filed with Ohio authorities, asking permission to dis- continue all its intrastate passenger | vice in Ohio. Passenger service, said the petition, | has dropped far below the level at which trains can operate profitably. In 1920, the Wheeling and Lake Erie carried 1,209,213 passengers in Ohio. In 1930 it carried only 70,563. Most railroads, of course, have not suffered that severely. But the ijlus- tration shows what can happen in a thickly populated state where there is a network of good public highways. Editorial Comment | Editorials printed below show the trend of tho ‘They are publ to whether the with The Tribune's policies. Prohibition in the Courts (New York Times) During the month of January, 92 per cent of the prohibition cases in| the Federal courts terminated in con- victions. Director Woodcock calls this “an unprecedented figure” and offers his congratulations to “every | one in the bureau.” Before concluding that we are about to witness strict enforcement of a law which has been laxly admin- istered since the date of its enact- ment, it is useful to analyze Mr. Woodcock’s figures. He reports that the Government obtained 6,052 con- victions “by verdicts of guilty and pleas of guilty.” He also reports that there were 311 jury trials during the month and that 89 of these re- sulted in acquittals. It follows, there- fore, that of the Government's 6,052 convictions only 222 were obtained by “verdicts guilty,” remaining 5,830 by “pleas of guilt: In other words, nineteen out of every twenty convic- tions were obtained by the familiar process of “bargain days,” a method enabling violators of the law to plead guilty in return for the imposition of light fines, amounting in many cases to less than the pre-prohibition li- cense fee. Of this system of bargain- day enforcement, President Hoover said two years ago that it “distinctly undermines respect for law.” Yet no other system of enforcement has ever been available to the Gov- ernment, since the courts would be thrown into even greater confusion if an effort were made to bring every violator of the Volstead law to trial. During the last fiscal year 68 per cent of the criminal cases handled by the Department of Justice were un- der a single statute, the national pro- hibition act. There are not enough courts and judges in the country to handle this mass of cases by any other method than by “bargain days.” an expense | Always Sandwiches ~ New York, March 1.—At the open- ing of one of the better night clubs, the Show Place, I noticed a brief an- “Cuisine under the per- sonal supervision of Renaldo, former- ly chef to the King of Spain.” Having come to expect almost any- thing on Broadway, it would not be overly surprising if a queen turned out to be a waitress, or vice versa. Renaldo, to be sure, is prepared to turn out courtly dishes. But the ap- petites of Broadwayites at 2 o'clock in the morning are slightly peculiar. “Always steak sandwiches!” moaned Renaldo, as he ordered another turned on the grill. “Always steak sandwiches! And I could do this blindfolded ana one hand tied behind me.

Actors, leaving quently salute him. When first I noted him, he was scll- ing copies of a publication entitled, “The Unemployed.” His curbstone stock expanded, to include gum and candies and pencils. But “once an actor—” A .few days ago I was strolling about and passed the street hydrant that has become his daily chair. Something about his outdoor shop had undergone a change. The soap box upon which he keeps his wares had been decorated; the wall against which he leans had been hung’ with — photographs. ‘They showed the gentleman in many char- acters; dressed in evening clothes; disguised in character roles; done in the soft colorings of a song or mag- azine cover. And attached thereto a tiny sign, reading: “Open for engagements as an artist's model.” And another of similar text. Even on the sidewalk selling gum— the artist, if you please! Country Cooking A few blocks down, the latest sand- wich man is a young fellow wearing a straw hat, a duster, overalls and high boots and carrying a wooden rake. His sign announces: “Real Country Cooking at X's.” Hmm... so New York has come around to it at last! At a corner once noted for champagne and gas- tronomy, the 1932 appeal is to the “old country dinner.” (Copyright, 1932, NEA Service, Inc.) the theater, fre- Tribune Want Ads Bring Results FLAPPER.

Enough arrests were being made in New York City every month, he pointed out, to occupy for an entire year the attention of such Federal judges as were available for prohibition cases, assuming that the Government asked in each case for a jail sentence, which meant a jury trial. At the end of a year's ef- fort, therefore, on the basis of a jury trial for each defendant, the Federal courts would find themselves with eleven years’ work to handle. By the end of two years’ effort they would be twenty-two years behind schedule. In ten years they would that many persons have delayed lose a century. iS CURIOUS THI WORLD Some peopie have a ripping time when they.go on a tear. Y RLD WAR | ANNIVERSAR ty) U, S.

Until one learns to manipulate the teeth and until the gums and the ridges have become hardened, one need not expect to eat everything and anything that is offered. a Tf there are spots in the gums and the ridges have become excessi sore, the dentist should be consulted immediately to make the necessary changes and to prescribe the neces- sary treatment.

The kitchen was not changed. Molly turned around from the stove and smiled at her. “Were you surprised, honey?” she asked in a gale of merriment and jhigh spirits. “What in the world has happened anyhow?” “We're giving you your chance— that’s what's happened, Molly crowed. “I'd never have known how to manage but Mrs. Clancy told me it | how to borrow money on the insur- ance, I've had the most exhausting day.

From downstairs the - doorbell rang imperatively. Ellen in a con- fused daze answered its summons. “Go and see who it is,” Molly commanded mysteriously. As she ran back through the din- ing room Ellen noticed that the painting of her grandfather, which had been stored since her father’s t | death, was in place on the wall, She reached the outer door and jerked it open. Coming up the stairs was Steven Barclay. “I'm afraid I’m early,” were Bar- clay’s first words. “Your mother said seven.” Ellen as she stood, shabby and beautiful, in the doorway suddenly understood everything. By “her e}chance” Molly had meant Steven Barclay. It was not the time— though her mother, to do her jus- rj tice, could not have known that— to invite Steven Barclay as a guest. It was indeed not the place into which to introduce a millionaire. The makeshifts, so delightful to Molly, did not improve the down-at- heel apartment; they succeeded only in emphasizing the essential poverty of its occupants, But hos- pitality, deep rooted and instinctive, triumphed over lesser considera: tions in Eilen’s mind, Ellen stepped into the hall to greet her unwelcome visitor so warmly that he should never guess that he was not @ welcome one. He was leaning against the balustrade exhausted by the long climb, His ‘face was so white that for a moment Ellen feared he would faint. She i ir e enough understanding to keep silent until he made a gallant recovery. “It's good of you to come,” she said at last, extending her slender brown hands. Sceing him rally his forces for a reply, sho had a sudden flashing| memory of Larry leaping up the stairs and shouting breathless and foolish nonsense, ‘ “I’m glad you think so,” Barclay said. hi zen noticed then, hesitating | on the landing, a uniformed three of them.

Thore’s a box for each of you—for your roses are for you.” And then they entered the living | over the boxes and recklessly tear- ing them open until the room was a carnival of color. There was al smudgo of flour on her pretty, tilted nose but she was far too excited to be conscious of her appearance. “I feel as though I don’t need an introduction to you at all,” she bub- bled, shaking hands with the guest. “Ellen has told us so much about you.” Molly’s eyes and her daughter's flashed ivgether. Ellen did not know what to do; she felt complete- ly helpless, What could she say? There was no denying that Barclay seemed pleased, “Well,” he was saying, “I hope} they were all nice things.” “Of course they were,” Ellen re- Plied a shade stiffly. “Darling, could you get vases for the flowers?” Molly interposed, toss: | ing aside layers of silky paper and! filling her arms with sweet, purple Macs. Ellen concealed her reluctance at | leaving her mother and her em- ployer together and left the room. When she returned she found Molly, her lap overflowing with flowers, chattering like mad to Barclay, She was talking about the English Ros- siters, “direct connections of ours, you know.” Ellen understood now the reason for the portrait in the qining room, She was both an. noyed and amused at her mother’s childish vanity, Although Steven was interested, Ellen was exceedingly cross. She relieved Molly of the fragrant bur- den and arranged the Iilacs, the creamy camillias and the pink roses in the already crowded room.
