President Urges
Cheaper Houses
To Aid Business
Crop Control Hangs
Fire; 'The Missus'
Dines Out
By GORDON RIDGEWAY
WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.
Cheaper homes was the cry of
President Roosevelt in his latest
message to congress. The nation's
No. 1 chief suggested cutting in
half the down payments on build
ing new homes under the federal
housing act. He also would reduce
financing charges on both small
and large structures.
The president maintained that
the high cost of building is “one
of the principal reasons” for the
present business lag.
* * *
In the house, crop control legis
lation was still being batted about.
As debate raged, some exclaimed
that the bill would wipe out wealth,
establish a large bureaucracy, and
further increase the national debt.
Supporters maintained that the
plan would smooth out inequali
ties.
Humble Vittles
BROWNSVILLE, Pa., Nov. 29.—
America’s “First Lady” and "The
World’s Richest Girl,” Mrs. Elinor
Roosevelt, and Mrs. Doris Duke
Cromwell, respectively, lunched on
elaborate farm fare, corn pudding-:
md chicken, today with homestead- j
ers from the coal mines.
The residents live on a small
200-acre trac conducted by the
Friends Service committee, a Qua- j
ker social aid organization. Miners j
and their families work after
hours on their homes and gardens.
The car carrying the distin
guished visitors once, became mired
in the mud; 12 husky miner-farm
ers pushed it out.
Fords—52 More
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 29.—Firty-two
more Fords were put on the mar
ket by the assembly plant here to
day despite a strike by the United
Automobile Workers of America.
Milton N. Johnson, manager, de
nied charges that the plant was
being operated with imported la
bor, or that the company discrim- j
inated against union men, fostered 1
a company union, and forced em-1
ployes to sign “loyalty pledges.”
He declared his intention of mak
ing the December quota, 135 cars
a day, and revealed a need for 50
or 60 more men.
Delmond Garst, strike leader,
upon hearing of the production re
port, retorted, “If they built that
many cars, I'd hate to ride in any
of them.”
Japan Moves On
SHANGHAI, Nov. 30.-—A story
of almost unimpeded Japanese pro
gress is repeated here today. Chi
nese were reported to have fallen
back to a point about 50 miles I
southeast of Nanking, China’s now
deserted capital.
* # * ,
Meanwhile, Washington is trying J
to negotiate with Japan for some
satisfactory settlement of customs |
service in Japanese-controlled Chi
na. Similar action is being taken
by Great Britain.
* * 51:
At the same time Italy an-!
nounced recognition of Manchou-1
kuo legally, and planned to estab
lish a legation there. Japan had
accorded de factor recognition to
the Italian conquest of Ethiopia
some time ago.

were hardly necessary to say so.
“And I so much appreciate the
welcome I've received here.”
Miss Brockman says she looks
forward to playing once again un
der the direction of Rex Under
wood, conductor of the University
symphony orchestra, who was her
teacher the five years she was in
Eugene. She anticipates the con
cert of the orchestra Sunday af
ternoon, in which she will be fea
tured.
Studied in Boston
For the past two years. Miss
Brockman has been studying at
the New England conservatory of
music in Boston. “I have been,
working two years for my master’s
degree," she explained. “I got that
last year, and now I am devoting
all my study to the violin.”

plans to continue her work, and to
go abroad for study in June on a
scholarship. “Further than that,”
she explained, “I have no definite
plans except that I know I shall
keep on with my music.”
Miss Brockman has played in
■ several eastern cities. During the
j summer she played in quartets,
doing no solo work, but last spring
played as guest artist Lalo's "Sym- I
phony Espagnole,” with the Bos
i ton symphony orchestra the num- -
ber she will feature on her pro
gram here.
UO High Standard
She finds that eastern schools of
music, though often larger, are of
no higher standard than the Uni
versity of Oregon. "They are doing
j the same things here that they are
in the east,” she stated. “I value I
my training here very highly—and
Mr. Underwood has done so much
for me.”
However, she finds that people
in general—taking in all classes—
accept music more readily in the
eastern than western states. She
explained that all classes of people
seemed to show more merest in
music,' and to demand more of
their concerts.
Varied Interests
In addition to music, Miss'
Brockman is very interested in
literature, dancing, and sports,
especially canoeing,” she said. I \
think perhaps I like canoeing best
of all! I used to have my own
canoe here.” %
As to composers, Miss Brockman
stated that although Brahms
might possibly be her favorite, she
has so many that she really cannot
say. She likes all types of selec
tions—classical, modern, and • ro
mantic. For dancing, she finds
popular music enjoyable.
Her group of selections in her
concert Sunday will include a
“Spanish Dance” by Granados, a
Debussy waltz, “Nocturne” by Lili
Boulanger, whom she describes as
“one erf the very few great women
composers,” and a Stravinsky Rus
sian dance.
Miss Brockman is the daughter
of Mrs. A. L. Brockman, teacher
of social studies in the sixth grade
at Edison school. She will be in
Eugene through December.
