WHAT THE CWA DOLLAR DOES
MOST business men would be glad to give 10 percent
for new business. In other words, if they could have all
the business they now have, they would be glad to split
their profits on the increased business providing it was
not business at the expense of somebody else. I
Some people are wondering what is to become of the
government that is spending millions of dollars giving
- nemployed men, heads of families. These work-

mid a bare subsistence wage, are being employed
pending their re-entry into regular business channels.
Yet, pouring millions into business through the grass
roots the government is stimulating business as never be-
fore. The CWA worker spends his money immediately. He
spends it for staples, necessities of life, and this is the
best way to cut down the surplus products of the land.
When the CWA worker spends his $12 check with the gro
cer it goes into potatoes, flour, canned goods, sugar, cof-
fee and many other items. That means more business for
each of these lines of production.
A couple of years ago the Lions club issued a check
for $1. An attempt was made to see how much business
it would do in 24 hours. It did about $74 worth of busi-
ness before being cashed 24 hours later. In other words
it turned 64 times before even being cashed. The CWA
dollar is life blood into the streams of business. It should
turn 50 times before it finally stops. If it turned 10 times
it would be worth while.
The government will get more than its CWA dollar
- hack in the form of income taxes, gasoline tax, tobacco
tax and taxes on various other lines that are touched by
the CWA dollar. Pouring millions in at the top will never
bring prosperity back. But pouring enough in at the bot-
tom certainly will. It should not be a "shot in the arm"
but a permanent food for business.
We hope the government will work out a permanent
unemployment insurance plan out of the present emer-

Milady is turning her attention to spring fashions these days and fashion experts are saying that the little
details of dress rather than any radical changes in silhouette will mark the new season. Dainty frills, ruf-

smartest of spring styles. as worn by screen stars. Double-breasted suits seem destined to be popular, in
severe man-tailored lines with two flap pockets and a cute watch pocket placed next to notched revers, such
as this gray tweed one, worn by Jean Howard. Una Merkel reveals the latest in spring hats, a white chapeau

Hamas May Be
Given Shot At
World’s Title
New York, Feb. 17.—The possi-
bility that Steve Hamas, the young
Wallington, N. J., heavyweight who
whipped Max Schmeling at Phil-
adelphia Tuesday night, may get
a shot at the heavyweight title now
held by Primo Carnera, arose Fri-
day as Charley Harvey, Hamas’
manager, conferred with John R.
Kilpatrick, president of Madison
Square Garden.
No definite arrangements were
made, but the posibilities of a
match between Hamas and the
winner of the Carnera-Loughran
title fight at Miami Feb. 28 were
discussed in general terms, Kil-
patrick said. Harvey added that he
intended to issue a challenge to the
winner and that he believed the
victory over Schmeling, a former
heavyweight title holder, had
Candidate Charles H. Ripley of Pecos who wants to find
out whether a "poor man fully qualified and without
rich financial backers and a political machine can crash
the doors of that rich man’s club known as the United

vocating repudiation of all National, State and mortgage
debt, including bonded indebtedness of utility and public
service corporations.—Dallas Journal.
Candidate Ripley won’t get very far with his repu-
diation platform. That’s too much like foreign nations.

Hard Luck With Meat.
R. N. Aday, farmer living near
Ike, killed a yearling yesterday to
can. He hung the meat where he
thought it would be safe from
dogs, placing it well up in a tree.
However, there was a table under-
neath and a hen roost above, and
in the night a dog used these for
stairsteps and jerked the meat
down, devouring part of it.—Wax-

Tie A. & M. Second
Houston, Texas, Feb. 17.—Hitting
their long shots with almost un-
believable accuracy. Coach Glen
Rose’s University of Arkansas
Razorbacks trounced the Rice cag-
ers here Friday nigh’, 31 to 20.
Against the rough aggressive play
cf the tell visitors, R. T. Eaton,
brilliant sophomore guard, was
the only Rice player to show to
advantage. Eaton, the Owl’s only
all-conference prospect, shot four
of Rice’s seven field goals.
Arkansas scoring strength was
well distributed, every member of
the Razorbacks’ starting combina-
tion shooting at least one field
goal. The Owls Saturday night will
get another chance at the Razor-
backs.
The Owls did not look like the
same team which held Texas Chris-
tian University to a two-point vic-
tory three nights ago and led the

day by Ed Lowell, first baseman,

Failure to receive contracts from
