By the middle of the week the European gold standard exchanges also weakened considerably, and nt the same time the Japanese yen and Chinese currencies broke badly. From London came reports that a sudden there had developed scarcity of available dollars In 'he world markets that Rritnin may pur chase to pay the United States. The evidence was that American cur rency had been bought up In France and elsewhere by exchange brokers as part of a scheme to depress the pound for the benefit of bears on sterling. DIRECTLY BEER would seem ato be occupying prominent place In the American public mind, were It not for the national Income and em ployment relief features Involved In the restoration of the beverage to a legalized status. Early in the week Speaker Garner devised a plan to put the hesitant legis lators on the spot. The drys and semi drys had been asserting that a measure legalizing beer Speaker Garner and possibly light wines should not be pressed to passage until a resolution for repeal of the Eighteenth amendment had been put through. So Mr. Garner drew up such a resolution and announced that he would Insist on Its being put to a vote In the house on Monday, the first day of the short session. It was a resolution for fiat repeal, with no mention of protection for the dry states. Many congressmen, both Democrats and Republicans, called on the speaker with protests and pleas for delay, and Mr. Garner began to weaken, saying that If he found there was considerable objection to consideration of his resolution he would Just as soon back up and say : "We will wait" Fred Britten of Chicago and other eminent wets trlpd to keep the speaker to his determination, Britten assuring him that the Republican side of the house would supply more than 100 votes for the repeal resolution. But there was no certainty of more than 130 Democratic votes, so It was doubtful whether the necessary majority could be obtained. Later In the week some of the dry members from the South were reported to be sliding over to the re peal side and the prospects of the resolution were considered brighter. two-third- s T EPRESENTATIVE CARL VIN-- ' son of Georgia, chairman of the committee on naval affairs, had a long talk with President-Elec- t Roosevelt at Warm Springs, and came away with his former "big ' house and better than ever.

All a press agent had to do for Mr. Zelgfeld was too see that the war got on the front page along with Mr. Zelgfeld girls. Well Odd, (thats his name Odd, Odd). Both O's stand for Odd. He was odd enough to stand for another O at birth. But his folks not knowing that he would get odder as he got older, 'nought double Odd would be enough to start on. He comes from away out In Ohio. You see Ohio has two O's in it too. When Odd was born out in Ohio their alphabet dident consist of '3. So when they much else but give a child an Initial it had to have an O in it. He was born at a town called Golopolois, Ohio. So you see those Obloans do the best they can on what O's they got. He left there with the first Ford and never gets back there much. You see when 1 first met him 1 was just a boy working in the chorus of Zeigfelds show. But lets get down to some modern data.

Old Amon Carter was gaping around over the place trying to peek into everything while the guide wasent looking. He kept trying to find at which room Odds property stopped and Vanderbilts started. There was a series of glass nd desks, with topped tables, nothing under em, just a kind of a skeleton frame of silver and the glass all over it. No drawers or anything only just the glass top.
