WILL BE CHECKED BY LAWJN ITALY Duce Sponsors Bill Limiting New Factories Aim To Prevent Expansion Be yond Consumer Demand. By ANDRIE HERDING ROME AP) Fascist Italy bas de cided to check by law over-production and over-capacity In Industry, held by economists to be two of the deep eat flaws In the present economic ayatem. The chamber of deputies haa pass ed a bill presented by Mussolini him self in his capacity as minister of corporations, which gives the govern ment the right to veto erection of new Industrial plants, or the enlarge ment of existing ones. No plant. In whatever Una of manu facture, now may be built or enlarg ed without the government's consent. The Immediate purpose of the law. the Duce told parliament. Is to curb exuberant Industries" which have over-expanded In the depression. He added that the plan would also have Importance during business re vival by preventing the extension of Industrial capacity beyond consumers' demand. America Is Example Economists hold that Industrial capacity the world over has been ex panded beyond the ability of the peo ple to purchase the production. It has been estimated that in the United States, for example, even In boom times from 10 to 20 per cent of capac ity was not utilized. Aside from the Inutility of such excess capacity, economists argue that lt absorbs Investment funds which must be lost due to the Inability of the plant to use ail Its facilities prof itably, and that generally It gives rise to bitter competition to the further detriment of profits. Unregulated construction also per mits haphazard Industrial develop ment, In which field, In the words of Mussolini, "the principle of free in itiative must meet a check in the higher principle of coordination for the general interests." The Duce explained to Parliament: "Thla provision Is necessary to facil itate a process of gradual scaling down of certain exuberant branches of Industry, without which the crisis cannot be overcome. Hits Speculative Plants "It Is well known. In fact, that al though a crisis halts new Initiatives and investments, nevertheless even In the midst of the depression there is always some industry which does not voluntarily slow down, but actually feeds on Che crisis. "This industry expands merely for speculative purposes and puts the best-lntentloned plan of gradual scal ing down of Industry to a hard tset. "Mow the state, which has taken on a heavy financial burden to fa cilitate this re-levellng process, has an elementary duty to see that similar marginal speculations are abruptly squelched. Penalties for Violators "Those Irregular Industrial expan-r sions that were dictated by bankers' rather than by manufacturers' stand ards, cannot be permitted for there have been too many dolorous exper iences for the Fascist State to toler ate any more." Infringement of the law Is punish ed by fines running to $500 for each director, and the closing of the plant. FOR YULE CHEER A light In the window of every home is the ambition of the Med ford Garden club for Christmas eve, and each family Is urged to respond to the request of the club In placing a light somewhere to add a bit of cheer to tVie approach of the holi days, which will find many families without the customary festivities. FJaborato displays are not urged, as there are many who cannot afford them, but some form of Christmas lighting, if Just a candle in a tin can, is asked of each home. There will be no competitive Christmas lighting this year, but It Is hoped the eve of the holiday will be as bright aa when prizes were offered for the most attractive lighting ar rangements. There Is always cheer In a beam of light extending from the home to the passerby, and that cheer is more need this year, leaders of the move point out, than It has been in many years.

'I got some rags and a little Iron bank," the man explained, "and start ed wiping off automobiles for what ever they'd give me. Most of the change went into the bank. "Had a bank like it when I was a kid. It was on the pantry shelf. My mother got me to saving pennies and at Christmas time she would take me downtown and we'd buy toys for orphans. I Just thought I'd do it this year." He mailed the gifts yesterday. "What kids?" "My own two of them up in New York. "They don't know I'm a bum."

In the latter work laboratory re- suite obtained from drivers for tail and truck companies are compared with the accident records of the men. Rockefeller Money Helps. The work is among Investigations undertaken by the Institute after re ceiving a grant of 17,SO0 from the Rockefeller Foundation to aid its n search. Tests were planned to reveal whether drivers were safe or "acci dent-prone," whether they reacted quickly to emergencies and whether they were "road-hogs." The true character of a subjects motoring skill la examined by means of a dummy car that Is "driven for mlles'over an illusory road.
