Taking Shirts Off
Poor Father's Back
Champaign. 111., July 20 U.R)
Papa is paying as usual this
time by having the shirt taken
off his back.
Miss Edna Gray, clothing spe
cialist at the University of Illi
nois college of agriculture, said
today an Increasing number of
bobby-soxers are leaving father
shirtless while they sip Ice
cream sodas in oversize men's
garb.
"It wouldn't be quite so bad,
if men were able to get all the
shirts they needed," Miss Gray
said. "But everyone including
the teen-agers knows there's a
shortage of men's shirts."
That's not all. The youngsters
also have made off with father's
work pants. This leaves him to
neglect his victory garden in the
interest of modesty or gingerly
cultivate his tomato plants while
wearing his best trousers.
IS
AT
E
Since inception of the utility
business there has been an issue,
that of public vs. private owner
ship, A. S. Cummins, president
of the California Oregon Power
company, told members of the
Kiwanis club at their noon meet
ing In Holland Hotel yesterday.
At first the agitation for public
ownership centered ent'rely
upon municipal ownership, Cum
mins said, but during the period
from 1922 to 1931 many munici
palities availed 'hemselves of the
opportunity to get rid of a ,os
Ing proposition by selling their
systems to private companies.
Survival Fight Important
Cummins stated his belief that
agitation for public ownership
stems from a desire on the part
of promoters of the plan to so
cialize the power industry and
that If they were successfu' in
their efforts it would soon spread
to other businesses. He pointed
out that the fight for survival
the1 private utilities are making
is of the greatest imnortance to
all who favor private ownership
of business. The Copco president
said that service and the price
of power as supplied by private
utilities are entirely fair and rea
sonable, but suggested persons
urging public ownership apply
one yardstick to privately owned
utilities and another to public
projects.
Public Protects Candied
The yardstick applied to public
projects has been alloyed with
grants, appropriations and sub
sidies, all gilded with a. frosting
of benevolence and grandeur to
make it alluring to the man on
the street, Cummins said. He
pointed out that no businessman
can hope to compete with a sub
sidized competitor who Davs lit
tie or no taxes, who never has
to worry about a ready supply
of money, who Is not subjected
to restrictions and who is not
concerned with profits or losses.
Cummins said the California
Oregon Power company is own
ed by a large number of stock
holders and that it pays taxes
and is a self-sufficient public
utility operating company.
Frederick H. Meyer, Ray Van
Loon, Mike Hauser and T. H.
Reeves were visitors and Rich

Divorcing Paris
Couples Forced
To Share Houses
Paris, July 20 (U.R) A
French court of appeals took
note of the fact today that It is
easier to get divorce than a
place to live in Paris.
The court gave permission to
dozens of divorcing couples to
live under the same roof. It put
them on their honor to keep a
locked door between husband
and wife all day if possible, and
certainly at night.
The piquant situation In a city
noted for Its piquant situations

trying to part were found to be

that It was this housing situa
tlon, and tvhat could one do?
