: . I; CONGRESS AND THE FARMERS
(No ground exists for hope that Congress at this session
i will enact laws for the relief of farmers. Members of both
houses who atlthe last session stood as champions'of the farmer
refuse to approve recommendations which are practicable. :
This is the situation:" The commission which President Cool
idge appointed.,. last December' is composed of the' beads of
. farmers' organizations educated, thorough going dirt farmers
.who have made constant study of marketing problems. They
" formulated specific recommendations which the president ap-
proved and submitted to the law making body.
The champions of the fanner in Congress look with disfavor
i on the recommendations made by the practical farmers who
i are not in politics. . TJic farm, bloc at the last session were
obstructionists. ', Their objective was re-election rather than
genuine relief. ;
: Once more they are obstructionists. They hold to economic
' theories which cannot be converted into facts through legisla
tion, but their theories are popular with distressed farmers
: who have been led to believe that Congress is able to provide
a panacea for every economic ill.
At bottom, the - difference between the farm bloc and the
, agricultural commission which employed good sense in that
one plays politics all the time and the, other, divorced from
; politics, devoted itself intelligently and exclusively to the solu
tion of a vast economic problem. ' " .1 ' -'.
!AnotheVfeatruiT'ot "the "-present -impasse is .'that -the- farm
r bloc together with other members of Congress insist, upon an
early extra session of the new Congress which the administra-
tion opposes. President Coolidge believes that any practical
relief could have been extended at the present session. He puts
upon Congress the blame for failure to take action. , The time
' until adjournment is so short that relief appears to be hopeless.

. - RUN DOWN THE FIRE BUG
,' A national movement looking to the suppression of arson,
which accounts for a large property loss by fire' in the United
' States, was" inaugurated by the National Fire Waste Council
at its last meeting in Washington.
Arson is difficult to prove but in some cities by special effort
have succeeded in reducing the number of fires attributable to
this source. -In- Detroit the number of incendiary fires in 1921
was 111. This was reduced to 59 in 1922 and 30 in 1923. This
improvement was partly due to the establishment of an arson
squad" composed of detectives of the city police department
who make a prompt investigation of all fires suspected of being
. of incendiary origin.
The fact that arson is prevalent is proven by the insurance
statistics, if. no other evidence was available. The number of
fires is almost invariably larger when business is bad than when
it is good. , It has been found, too, Jhat closet fires in apart
ments are often of incendiary origin. Some persons liaye been
known to use more than once manufactured "evidence of loss''
' in the form of partly burned clothing and furs. ...'. '
A committee of three has been appointed by the National
; Fire Waste Council to study the arson situation and . recom
mend methods of attacking the evil at the next meeting of
tne council in March. -
THE PENMAN OUTDOES THE YEGGMAN
' One hears much about bank robberies and little about
forgeries of bank checks and other negotiable papers but insur
ance investigatorsfind that the penman lakes from banks and
their depositor? twenty times the toll taken by the ycggnian.
'The' loss through forgery 'or alteration of checks, notes,
drafts, bills of exchange and trade acceptance, says the depart
ment in. a bulletin. Recently issued, has been placed by various
conservative . authorities somewhere between fifty and one
hundred million dollars a year. '
' ' "From the busincss"inan's viewpoint," live bulletin continues,
"the problem of forgery lias two, angles prevention and in
demnification against the possibility of loss."
, There arc various .Mechanical appliances designed to make
forgery difficulty such as prepared, inks and paper and check
writing machines. . Various rules arc also suggested to mini
mize -the danger of forgery. ; J-li.it forgery insurance is com
paratively new having been devised only about five years ago.
There -arc four different policy forms in use which .are
explained in detail in the bulletin. Two of these, the depositors'
forgery policy' and the '.commercial forgery policy, are for in
dividuals and business concerns1 and two are for banks, the
one a limited the other a blanket forgery policy. The first two
cover losses growiiig .-out,-of the forgery of signature of. the

HUNTS
WASHINGTON
LETTER
By HARRY B. HINT
NEA Service Writer
WASHINGTON. Feb. 1 1. Even
.president can pull n "boner,"
Which is . exactly what President
Coolidge accomplished during the
call at the White House a few days
ago of 300 officers and privates In
the 'Coolidge-Arniy of New Jersey."
This Coolidge Army is an ex
clusively feminine outfit.,,, Perhaps
because of this, it didn't- seem
strange to Calvin that arrangements
for the call were not made through
regular political channels.
Instead of having the meeting
framed through their senator or
congressman, "Generol"' J. Mabel
Brown and Mrs. Louis Thompson
made the arrangements themselves
direct with the White House. '..
Finding the ' delegation of Ne
Jerseyites on. his program, it seem
ed to Coolidge that the occasion
would be made more noteworthy if
the Republican senator from that
state wr,8 included In the pjrty. -
-So a phone call front the White
Houai asking Senator Edge to run
up and join the president In shak
ing hands with his constituents.
- a i
Had tho president been at all
psychic, he could not but liava not-
Iced the constraint with which the
ladles of tho "army" greeted their
senator. ' i
However, he seemed to sense noth
ing wrong. And when the handshake
Ing was over, the president, putting
an atm affectionately across Edge's
shoulders, told bis visitors that he
wished they'd pledge themselves to
see ttiat New Jersey soon sent down
another Republican senator "like
Senator Edge."
Had the president kept himself
up-to-date on the luternnl politics
of New Jersey, be would have
known at -once that the "arm"
had Intentionally maneuvered so It
would owe Edge nothing In con
nection with its call on thj presi
dent. . '
Ho would hnvo known' that this
Coolidge Army" In the last cam
paign fought just as, h jrd to de
feat Edge for re-election ui it did
to re-elect Coolidge.
Under the circumstances, fur
Coolidge to tell tho ladles that toe
finest thing thoy could do would
be to send down another so-'itor
'ilke Senator Edge" mndo an al
ready embarrassing sllUJtioo still
m'oro to.

ing a measure of privacy approich-
Ing that already. enjoyed b nr. in-'

marble buildings of approximately
equul size. "
Hut whereas tho Senito ' office
building must house only 1)6 sena
tors, the Houso building must pro
vide quarters for no loss than 435 .
members. , i
The result Is '.that while each
senator has a commodlus suite of
from three to four or five room,
members of the House, except for
chairmen oft Important committees
have only one. -
,. A proposal! to construct addition
al quarters within the present build-
i Ing finds unanimous: favor among
memoers.
Hut brought face to face with
the administration demand for a
cut in government expenses cf some
300-odd millions next year, it seems
' certain, that tho next'. Congress, at
(least, will have to struggle nlonr
j with "no more privacy than: an olo-

Just a slim girl, maybe, or a motherly woman with sweet eyes
and white hair but what a responsibility is hers!
She is the active partner in the business of iamning a home.
She buys most of the things which go to make home life happy,
healthful and beautiful. Through her slim, safe fingers goes
most of the family money. -
And wisety and well it is usually spent too far better than the
average man could spend it himself. For women are better
' purchasing agents than men. They compare prices, weigh values
and shop carefully.
They read advertisements regularly. Eveiy day you'll find tho
wise little home manager searching the advertising columns
for .news that will add to the comfort, find the same clever
purchasing agent studying the advertisements to fincf where
and when to-buy, and what and how to buy most economically.
The advertisements, too, tell this responsive art director how
she can make her home more beautiful, more individual the
kind of home that a man appreciates but never knows how it
is done! . r
Advertisements, are the wise counsellors in the spending of
money that the clever housewife heed3 daily.
