NEWS OF THE WEEK Hitler Solidifies Position Berlin, Germany.—After effect ing a complete reorganization of the high command of the German army, Chancellor Hitler has re tired to his estate at Berchtesgaden where he is preparing a speech to be delivered at a session of the Reichstag on February 20th, in which he is expected to explain his motives in taking practical leader ship of the vast war machine of the Reich. Many observers advance the belief that in spite of the changes announced, the first army authority rest with the generals who have long opposed the intro duction of Nazi influence into mili tary circles. Japan May Reveal Plans Tokyo, Japan.—Answering the demand of the United States, France and Great Britain, Japan may reveal its naval building pro gram, but on an informal basis, without recognizing the treaties restricting naval armament. Naval authorities recall that although withdrawing from the London Nav al Conference, Japan undertook to construct no “super-treaty” war ship before January Ist, 1934, “without previously informing the United States of its intention to do so.” It is on the construction of this phase that the State Depart ment has queried Japan as to its naval intentions. Printers Favor A. F. L. Indianapolis, Ind.—Led by the local International Typographical Union No. 1, five other printers’ unions voted to continue their alle giance to the American Federation of Labor, as opposed to the efforts of organizers of John L. Lewis’ Committee for Industrial Organi zation to lure the typographical workers into the latter organiza tion. The adherence of these im portant unions to the Federation may cost Charles P. Howard his job as I. T. U. president, since he is also secretary of the C. I. O. In six union votes, he lost out in five because of his allegiance to the Lewis group. Vast Highway System Planned Washington, D. C. —If Federal “pump-priming” should again be undertaken on a large scale, one measure awaiting introduction in to Congress is a huge system of super-highways to be erected on a self-liquidating basis. The plan calls for high speed toll roads cov- : PUROIL SERVICE STATION > i Expert Washing and Greasing ; Special Gas —lB cents ; Oil-15 cents quart ; C. E.

It is said that the plan has the endorsement of the War Department and the Bu reau of Public Roads. Colleges Seek Cash Students New York City.—A mad scram ble for paying students on the part of American colleges is de scribed in the annual report of Dr. Walter A. Jessup, president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Ad vancement of Teaching. He de scribes the high-pressure methods of “selling’’ a college education to students able to pay for it, and quotes one high school in a mid western city that was visited by eighty-three representatives of va rious colleges trying to enroll pos sible students with money enough to pay for their tuition. The Business Week Leading in the unofficial candi dates for the first salaried presi dent of the New York Stock Ex change organization is Joseph E. Kennedy, first Chairman of the Se curities Exchange Commission and at present ambassador designate to Great Britain. Others mention ed include many financial and in dustrial leaders, but no choice will be made until March ... In the meantime a New York Stock Ex change seat sol d for $59,000, the lowest price in twenty years. In what financiers have come to call “the era of beautiful nonsense” stock exchange seats sold for $600,000 . . . Present labor con tracts between the U. S. Steel Cor poration and Lewis’ C. I. O. expire on February 28th, and negotiations start this week at Pittsburgh look ing toward a renewal of wage and working conditions agreements . . An entirely new form of security has made its appearance on several security exchanges. They consist of “passbooks” showing equities in building and loan associations and similar deposit organizations which cannot immediately be turn ed into cash. A brisk market is reported from Mid-Western ex changes in such evidence of cor porate debt. “LITTLE BUSINESS” The big delegation of small busi ness that came to Washington on February 2 were not very direct in stating their views, but that was due to the fact that one thousand men with an equal number of ideas couldn’t all speak at once—which they tried to do. They did, how ever, make it very clear that they regard general business conditions throughout the country as very un satsfactory. Meanwhile the so-called reces sion does not improve, but the Ad ministration and Congress are wrestling with the puzzles of na tional conditions, and these leaders state that there is reason to hope for improvements next Spring. That's about the best there is to offer in the way of Washington re ports. HOMES ON EASY TERMS The housing bill has finally passed, and under its terms any family with a small and steady in come may secure a home of their own. The Government will guar antee loans on new homes up to 90 per cent, leaving only 10 per cent to be advanced by the home-owner. Thus with S3OO one may acquire a brand new $3,000 house. We like winter weather, but what we really want is a gorgeous spring day. Colored Column Eugene Hunter, son of Mrs. Na omi Hunter, was home this week on furlough from Norfolk, Va., where he is at present stationed. He is a member of the U. S. Navy. Mrs. Ida Weaver has been at the point of death for several days now. She has been sick for weeks. Later Mrs. Weaver died on Wed. The funeral is to be held on Friday. Filmore Dunn and wife, Ada Hunter Dunn, a son, Bobbie Ephe sia Junius Thomas Dunn, born Jan. 23, 1938, at Rosenburg, Zebu lon, route 2. DANGEROUS It is dangerous to sell a SUBSTI TUTE for 666 just to make three or four cents more.
