THE McLEOD BILL There is a bill before Congress, known as the McLeod bill, in troduced by Representative Clarence J. McLeod, Republi can, of Michigan. It provides for the payment of 100 percent of deposits in closed banks which are (or were) members of the Federal Reserve System. The government is holding the assets of these banks which aggregate many millions. It looks preeminently fair and just that depositors should be paid in full. But there is an other angle to the plan: Other banks, not the "holi day'" banks, which were closed about the same time and re ceivers appointed to liquidate them. Some of them settled with depositors for much less than 100 cents on the dollar. If the government should pay depositors in "holiday" banks in full, then why not go back and square up with the depositors in the other banks which closed a day, a week, a month, or longer before the bank holiday was declared. ci__ i- i.: a_! oeems nere is a suuuuou iu be ironed out?that depositors in both classes get the same sort of a deal. E. C. Macon, insurance man of Asheville, announces his can didacy for the Democratic nom ination for the office of Public Utilities Commissioner in oppo sition to Stanley Winborne of Hertford, present incumbent. In his platform he pledges, if nom inated and elected, to reduce electric rates and phone costs, and that he will also urge legis lation to reduce automobile tag rates to five dollars. If all users of electric current and tel ephones and owners of automo biles, favoring the lower rates, vote for Mr. Macon, there is no doubt of his nomination and election. The electric and phone people should be able to take a cut and still have pretty easy going. But, until the roads are nearer paid for, the wisdom of any drastic reduction in auto mobile licenses is doubted. Nev ertheless the things he stands for appeal to the economically minded and should boost the prospect for his nomination. The people are looking, as never before, for some way to get along cheaper after the lessons taught by depression in the past few years. Leon Trotzky, once East Side New Yorker, who was conspic uous in the Russian Revolution that killed and banished the royal family, was later banished himself. By permission he took refuge in France. Now France don't want him and has notified him to clear out. He has been looking to the United States as a haven, but the United States don't want him?an undesirable citizen and a menace to an or derly Democracy. He is thor oughly saturated with commu nistic virus. He is a revolution propagandist, and on account of such activity France, thous ands of miles nearer Russia than is the United States, has given him his orders to decamp.

WOMEN ARE GROWING TALL; LOSE WEIGHT Survey Shows American Girl ? Thinner Nowadays. New York.?The American woman is getting taller. Few of them today I aren't taller than their mothers. While this change In their stature has taken place, however, no distinct American type has developed, either among males or females. Unification of the United States has failed to sub I merge sectional types. This is shown by new studies of : anthropologists and sociologists just completed. There are still "Western" I and "Southern" and "Eastern" types, and even colleges have distinct types, it was learned by Dr. Harold S. Diehl I of the University of Minnesota, whose | researchs show that the American girl I Is growing taller and thinner. In his survey. Doctor Dlehl found that Stan ford university coeds are the tallest In | the country. Smith college students the j heaviest, and those at Texas univer- I sity the slightest. , This finding brought forth a deluge | of comment from sociologists all over i ( the country. 1 Prof. Henry Fulrchlld of New York university said: "If the present rate of immigration decreases, the United States will be come a tight, homogeneous nation. , Thus a curious, Indirect by-product of current unemployment and quota prob j lems is a purer American race. "Sectional types, however, remain. The Northwestern states, Oregon and I California, are noted for tall people. | I've noticed for years that women are i getting taller and taller. I know of ' few adult women today who are not taller than their mothers. As physical stature depends, within limits, upon ( environment, it would be a wonder if i they didn't get tall, what with in- | creased knowledge of proper nutriment 1 | and exercise. "Increased stature is the evidence | of better human development There is no danger, however, of evolving a race of giants. The whole study of genetics seems to show that every form varies within limits. While the present race shows a trend toward j a certain height, It will stop there." Canadians' River Plan Will Cost $15,000,000 Montreal.?Plans for a gigantic trrl gation scheme, involving an expendi ture of $15,000,000 and a territory in northwestern Saskatchewan of 1,000, 1 000 acres, have been submitted to the I dominion government by three Moose I Jaw men. The plan, which now awaits the sanction of federal and provincial gov ernments. Is backed bv A. W. E. Fawkes, W. K. Bennett and A. E. Mar | tin. The men state that financial : backing for the scheme is available. The project would give 1,500 men ; work for three years. Seventy per cent of the cost would be for labor. Part of the plan consists In the con i struction of a huge dam across the Saskatchewan river. At this dam 100, 000 horse power of electrical energy could he developed. The plan also makes provision for water supplies to Moose Jaw and Reglna. The irrigation plan Involves the wa tering of a strip of land 30 miles in width from Rlverhurst to Moose Jaw and between Qu'Appelle and Thunder Creek valleys. Distribution of the wa ter would be by pumping stations, pipe lines, canals, tlumes and ditches. Dancing Expert Solves Problem of Wallflower New York.?Arthur Murray, the | dancing consultant credited with pol- 1 Ishiug the technique of the great and near great, announced another victory over the wallflower. Murray claims to have discovered a method of dancing that will enable, for Instance, a man 0 feet G Inches tali to dance In perfect harmony with a rotund matron of 200 pounds com pressed Into 5 feet of height. "It's all In the feet,** said Murray. : "A normally matched couple dances j with both bodies swaying rhythmical j j tv. Now when there's a great dlspar- ! It\ in height the thing to do is keep j , the body fairly rigid and concentrate l on the feet. "By standing a little further apart 1 than usual and paying close attention to the legs a giant could dance with a pygmv?well, nlmoef anyway."
