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.

Sam told how he had been haunted
by the ghosts of Chrlstmases past
until he "quit drinking, quit pan
handling, and scraped a little change
together for a couple of presents."
'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

"They don't know I'm a bum."

The tendency of the younger set
to apply too lavish a make-up la
doubly regrettable because usually
they need no such facial covering.
Youthful faces are colorful enough
without Its aid.
Many girls also seem to Ignore
their own color typea and apply
shades that fnll to blend with thetr
natural attributes.
For instance, eyelashes and .brows
should be brown for the lighter eyes
and black for the darker eyes. Eye
shading for light eyes should be
gray, and brown for the dark ones.

Dummy Car In Trials.
By Oscar Leldlng.
LONDON p) Motorists are being
'stretched on a table" for a measure
of their faults or skill in the labor
atory her of the National Industrial
Psychology.
Tests expected to reveal in an hour
what might otherwise become appar
ent only after months or years have
been developed and the organization
now Is engaged in "testing the testa."
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

A facsimile of the driving seat of
an automobile, fitted with a steering
wheel, brakes and accelerator, is pro

country road.
Tests Show Faults.
The subject seats himself in the
car and, as the accelerator Is pressed,

"Such psychological tests as these
