First National of Boston Sees “Day of Reckoning Not Far Distant.” By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 28.—The contentious question of Government spending was brought into financial discussions again by the monthly let- ter of the First National Bank of Boston, which declared “the day of reckoning is not far distant.” “The Government cannot create wealth or income. It can only col- lect and distribute income that has been produced by private enterprise,” declared the letter. Presenting the national balance sheet on “a simple arithmetical basis,” the bank said, he per family income in 1934 was | $1,587; total public debt, $1,663; gov- ernmental costs, $517, and taxes col- lected, $317." The bank warns that “no nation can long go on with its budget scale so badly out of balance without in- viting repudiation or inflation with its disastrous consequences.” The letter then veers off on a more | hopetul tack. LONDON.— e change (ool i) “The cheering thought |is this. In good times from 35 to 40 billion dollars are annually spent on | durable goods, and these industries | provide direct employment for ap- & | proximately 10 million workers. The bulk of the unemployment is now in |these heavy industries. Because of the prolonged depression there is a | tremendous potential demand for ok 1durable goods. These industries can | and will be stimulated into activity | when the uncertainty caused by the strain on the Federal credit and the threat to our monetary standard is removed.” Washington Produce Egg quotations were steady to firm on the Washington produce market today.

HOUGH St. Wapniacl has never been canonized, this is the patron saint of Dennis A. Lyons, the lawyer, who spends most of his time contacting the various Government departments. In order to get them all fixed in his mind, he invented St. Wapniacl. If you notice carefully, St. Wap- niacl's name is made up of the initials of the Government depart- ments in the order of their creation by ‘Congress—and under the exact wordage, thus: State, Treasury, War, Attorney Gen- eral, Postmaster General, Navy, In- terior, Agriculture, Commerce and All of which makes the name of St. Wapniacl. * ok ok K BLIMP MIRROR. There is a rear vision mirror in the Goodyear blimp. Curious Wash- ington Wayside operative 1234 asked Pilot Walter Massie if he ‘used it to spot air trafiic cops. “No, we use it to ‘spot’ passengers,” he replied. “We warn them if they move around too much, or start to throw things out of the windows.” * * X X FOR EXPERT FORWARDING. OUNDARY questions, delimitation of territorial waters, sovereignty of islands, immigration quota and sta- tistical problems, and the geopraphical aspects of all types of mix-ups come under the head of the business of the office of the geographer of the State Department. But geographical sleuthing,, says Samuel W. Boggs, head of this office, is perhaps the most useful service it performs. Letters to go abroad often route through the various divisions of the Department of State, Veterans’ Bu- reau, Bureau of Naturalization, other ernment and members of Congress. They are addressed in terms of pre- war rather than post-war geography.

When you take the “Old George- town road,” running from Bethesda to the Rockville Pike through Alta Vista, you're riding on what is probably the oldest “State road” in Maryland. In 1712 the people of the Colony of Maryland petitioned the Maryland Assembly for a road from the Potomac to Rock Creek. An old Indian trail accordingly was built up and was later named the “Braddock Trail.” That is what is now known as the “Old George= town road.” * x * x A TALE OF WOE. TH!SE new busses are tricky!

She stepped off the bus and managed to get her traveung bag out, but the door closed betore she could get her pocketbook out. “Hey,” she yelled frantically, “you've got my pocketbook caught in the door. Open it up.” “I'm sorry lady,” replied the bus driver, “that door 1s automatic. I haven't got a thing to do with 1It.

But when a column- ist spread the word that the “little tramp*” would make a talkie—the Chaplin Studio was bombarded with protests from Japan, France, England —and a letter from a gentleman in Joplin, Mo., who wrote, “By Gosh, Charlie, you talk and I'll go out there myself and knock your damn block off* But Charlie's determination fo remain silent in pictures is about all that does remain of his colorful, haphazard production methods of the past.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 28.—Dr. Elmer E. Hotaling of New York told the closing session of the fourteenth an- nual convention of the American Academy of Optometry yesterday of a new method of controling the prog- ress of cataracts by a special lens. ‘While emphasizing that the lens, which filters red and infra-red rays, would not cure or prevent cataracts, Dr. Hotaling said the method offered the first adequate non-surgical ap- proach to the problem. He said that with the use of the lens afflicted persons might retain their vision for a prolonged period. Dr. Bran Clark of the University of Southern California told the ses- sion of his experiments with a camera which photographed the movements of eyes. The results, he said, sug- geltefl that photographic methods m: soon supplant other ways of testing eyes. IS MAKING A NEW PICTURE! gested that everybody go to a baseball gome!
