PAY W HEAT CONTRACTS Whether General Johnson continues at the helm, or whether the management of that work is entrusted finally to General Johnson's group of five, it is certain that the summer and autumn Will witness elimination of many petty features of codes that have to be only annoyances. proved I believe there is agreement among unbiased thinkers that development of codes at the rate necessary to make the Initial drive for recovery naturally brought many provisions of a worthless character. Many times, it has been shown, those pro isions have very nearly upset the good that was obviously going to result from fair practice agreements. The Job the board has to do, if it remains as a successor to General Johnson, Is to go through the codes with a comb and eliminate all of the questionable and useless provisions. My opinion is, if this were done, there would be much less opposition to the codes and consequently to continuation of the industrial recovery act. The prevalent thought in Washington, then, is that as a result of the annoying features, contained in the codes, the administration is likely to pull hard to revise as many of them as is possible before next winter. hand-picke- d five-ma- d It always has been true that an invalid who is convalescing passes through a stage on the way to re- Invalid liere he covery Perks Up ine grouch. develops a genu- Everything hits him Wrongly. Food Is not right and medicines are no good, and a thousand and one other things furnish grounds for complaint. This condition nearly always precedes the time when the patient gets out of bed and takes a few steps again. The circumstance to which I have referred is such a common occurrence that it seems to me there is no better illustration of the condition in which American business now is represented to be. It is highly significant. In the first instance, it shows, according to the experts, that business has enough new life blood to start fighting back against administration plans and policies that cramp Its style, and, secondly, vigorous opposition never has failed to be a healthy thing for the country as a whole. From the information I get in many quarters, it is yet too early to tell whether commerce and Industry is going to be a unit in any one course of Its opposition. The strictly recovery phases of the New Deal are not going to be attacked, even by the Republican national committee. That question apparently is settled. But business interests apparently and quite logically are distinguishing between recovery and reform. Take the legislation that created the commission for control of security sajes and policing the stock exchanges, as an example. I frankly do not see how the Republican leadership or business interests can expect to get far in criticism of that, even if it is solely a reform proposition.

Kitchen Really Keynote of Home There Is no other room in a house which so definitely indicates a rounded cycle of fashion in housing necessities as does tl.e kitchen. Within the past few years It has become the most discus-e- d part of a home. Its decorative schemes have undergone marvelous changes Its uses have become complex, its furnishings and its equipment elaborateIn fact, the kitchen has ly efficient. again come Into its own. Long years ago it was the main room in a house, btlng kitchen, dining room, and living room. Today it fulfills the first two of these functions. It partakes mildly of the third, although modern kitchen fittings are too mechanical and coldly technical for the old fash ioned coziness to be present, which coziness was almost cuddling in its hearty welcoming atmosphere. The home builder of today who decides to feature the kitchen in her new house will do well to remember one item of the past kitdn ns. They hail sink rooms! These Hi tie rooms were ns large as up to date Kitchen' ette. The stove was not present but the sink w as prominent. Around and the walls were shelves every convenience for taking care of dirty dishes, pots and pans, and keeping tbe clean ones neatly stowed away. Of course, there was the dining room closet, In which was stmked the best china, the sink room containing the everyday tableware together with cooking utensils. With such a loom it was possible to segregate tbe confusion of unsightly articles from the attractive ones, and preserve a tidy kitchen even when cooking was under way. The clutter of the pots and puns, baking dishes, etc., did not distmb the serenity of a living room. The sink room is one which would relieve a modern kitchen equally well, and help to make It a mme fitting dining room, which, ns mentioned before, Is one of Its present day uses. Apait from this suggestion for home builders, let us speak of some of the various aids to eilicieney in e, To Teit Egg Here is a good way to test eggs for freshness.

OGDEN, UT. An all time low record is forecast by Southern Pacific officials for the Great Salt Lake. The measuring guage at Midlake shows the water level to be 24 inches below zero. This is within the record low of 27 inches below zero that was recorded in 1902 and 1905. But the low readings were taken in those years in December the low water monih of the year. By December, 1934, the water level may be far below the old record of 27 Inches below zero, say officials who have observed the lake for d impor-mainto- j Zaro Agha, who died In the Childrens hospital at Istanbul, Turkey, a short time ago, may Indeed have been the worlds oldest man, though widespread doubt will resist the claim of the ancient Turk that he was one hundred and sixty years of age. He could have been many years younger than the age he claimed and still compete with authenticated cases of extreme age that have been checked In by men interested Jn longevity. fact, he could have cast off almost a half century from his claim and still have been in sharp competition with the most extreme case of longevity ever fully authenticated by scientific Investigation, not quite 111 years. There can be no doubt but that Agha was a very old man and that he carried ids years lightly, but the evidence of his greatest dependence in support ot his claim, a birth certificate in which the "dogum tarihi," or date of birth, is set at 1191 on the Moslem calendar, or February 18, 1774, few months "more than two years before the American states declared their independence, may be questioned. Not so much Its authenticity as to the record of a birth on the day mentioned, as that the Zaro Agha who has just died was the person whose birth was recorded.
