Bash, international indus trialist and builder of the great Bush Terminals system here. "Within the next ten years we arc destined to achieve a standard of comfort and luxury never before known, and Americans of all classes will participate," predicts Mr. Bush in his new book, “Working With the World," in which he fore casts that, the coming generation will see this country gain world leadership in the arts, literature and sciences as a logical outgrowth of its dominant econmtc position. The current increase of prosper ity is not a passing phenomenon, he asserts,. but a vital, growing force "founded upon the mo6t ef ficient industrial organization any nation has ever achieved.” Science, engineering and ma chinery’ have done much to accel erate industrial life, and the broadening viewpoint of labor and capital on thetr common problems is proving a cornerstone of the new prosperity, Mr. Bush declares. “Little by little, wt have come to the conclusion that a few’ cannot succeed unless all prosper.” he points out. “The present far-sight edness of American industrial lead ers in encouraging high wages and the wide.distribution of wealth is one of the leading factors In the general stability of the country. The present activity of the stock market is evidence of this widening distribution of national wealth. No previous civilization has ever flourished on such a foundation of general public well-being." But the accumulation of wealth, he points out, is a means and not an end in the evolution of Amer ica. . "We arc going on to a wider cul ture and to more happinesss." he says, "We are passing through the shirt-sleeve stage of our civiliza tion into the period of artistic ex pression. There stretches before us a great highway to better and more beautiful; things. There has come a new phase in our national life to make our place in art, literature, music and all the kindred methods oi self expression In beauty. Our democracy is built upon the educa tion of all the people, and this ts the one huge, outstanding differ ence between the civilization we arc, achieving and those that failed in the past.

Mrs. Hoover Does Not Go To The “Beauty Parlors' Docs Her Own Hair. Her Move Into White House Worries Beautifirrs. By ALLENE SUMNER VEA Service Writer Washington.—Mrs. Herbert Hoo ver, First Lady-elect, does not go now, and never has gone, sav those "in the know.” to a beauty parlor for a shampoo and curl and all the hirsutic what-havc-yous that beauty parlors proffer. Lady in facto, leaves the White House without knowing just what beauty parlors can do, it’ll not be the fault of the parlors. The fight is on. It's such an open secret in the Washington hair dressing trade that someone must capture the good will and work of the next First Lady that the mat ter has even been brought up in closed sessions of beauty parlor as sociations in solemn convention as sembled. "The entire beauty business the country over will suffer if it is learned that Mrs Hoover does her own hair and rarely, if ever, has a professional “facial." is the word which has seeped out through au thentic but. unquotable channels. “She must be made to see that not only can she personally profit by swinging into line with all mod ern women and having profes sional beauty work done. but. she must be made to see that it is her duty as America's First Woman to bolster up this great industry. One speaker in such a gathering rose to his feet to remind the cause that Mrs. Coolidge never had per mitted herself to buy or wear im ported clothes, and that what she had done to strengthen the cause of American designing, so Mrs. Hoover must do for the American beauty shop. A girl in a shop where Mrs. Coolidge has gone for special tonic and scalp massage treatments throughout her residence in the White House, outlined the situation like this: “About half a dozen beauty par lors in this city are lying awake nights to dope out a plan to get Mrs. Hoover as a customer. Our shop is working by approach through several of her close friends who have been our customers for years. They have promised to do everything possible to bring her to us.*’ Most of the other shops are us ing the same tactics. The Hoovers are sufficiently well known in Washington for the shops to know that the approach simply cannot be through graft or bribery.
