On the Sidewalks of New York By OBSERVER (Correspondence to The Gazette) Lunch Stands All over Manhattan luncheon places do a rushing business for three hours and then subside. During the biggest rush seats are at a premium and there are scenes of excitement only equalled during the scramble to get down to work and get home. Some of the cafeterias have reduced service to a science. At the busiest of these places there is stationed a man on a platform back of the counter. You call your order to him, assistants fill it and he gives you your order and punches your check in lightening like fashion. The way crowds melt away before his pep is a wonder. It is, perhaps, the exact antithesis of what is happening in Russia where queues of people stand in line for hours, waiting for food. Efficiency. One of the most noted luncheon chains sells its stuff by the nickel-in-a-slot plan and takes in hundreds of thousands of nickels. At the end of the day's business these are actually shoveled into a traveling tank. They are then counted by a machine that looks like a huge coffee mill. The coins are laded into a hopper and a man turns a handle that grinds them out, packed into little tubes of twenty, labeled and marked with the amount. These are packed into carboard boxes and handed over to the bank. The counting machine does work that would take ten girls a whole day to do, and with no mistakes. The machine even throws out bad and defective coins. House Hunting New York is so vast that house hunting is a terrible task. That may be one reason why New Yorkers do Affairs of Week at Nation’s Capital (Correspondence to The Gazette) Washington, D. C.—President Hoover has met the public demand that he assume leadership in no uncertain manner by his initiation of the national credit corporation. It is called by political observers here the second great act of his career as President. The first was the executive order granting a moratorium on European War debts. Some of the more enthusiastic members of the Republican party claim Mr. Hoover has made his re-election next year certain by his latest act alone. While they do not expect that the depression will have entirely ended when next year's campaign starts, yet they assert the country will be so well advanced on a new career of prosperity that few voters will want to risk changing the responsible head of the government when voting time comes around. When the President summoned the great bankers of the country into conference it was largely for the purpose of having them agree to the proposal he had already matured in his own mind, after holding consultations with Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and Secretary of State Stimson. When the bankers met him he explained his plan of having them form a pool of $500,-000,000 to lend to other banks, taking in return good bankable security, but which lacks fluidity. In other words, commercial paper on which money could not be raised but which is known to be absolutely good. The amount of half a billion, huge as it is, was not deemed sufficient alone to turn the tide of depression, but financiers know that the fund will be lent over and over and the effect will be the same as though a fund of five billion had been provided. It is expected that a large part of the frozen assets of the country will be turned into cash and release many millions for business expansion. The stock market always the first... man turns a handle that grinds them out, packed into little tubes of twenty, labeled and marked with the amount.

The machine even throws out bad and defective coins. House Hunting New York is so vast that house hunting is a terrible task. That may be one reason why New Yorkers do not move often, and then only for some powerful reason. Lately one real estate organization that handles some twenty-odd big apartment houses has devised a scheme to aid prospective tenants. The scheme is to center at one place in mid-town two floors of completely furnished apartments; replicas of those in their various buildings. In half an hour one can see exactly some ten kinds of homes, learn their price and how they are situated and the other necessary things to be known, sign a lease and go about one's usual business. The man in charge told us the other day that he rented eight or ten places a day. It is probably the last word in efficiency in house hunting. London Bobbles. One big apartment, modeled along English lines and with an English name, carries the idea still farther. Its doormen are garbed in English policemen's uniforms and its other employees dress in English soldier's outfits. One thing required of all employees is that they must speak English. Some even have a Cockney accent. It is said that when Radio City is organized the owners plan to have a daily noon review of its 2,000 employees that will rival the drill of the West Point cadets for snappiness. A Millionaire Sheriff Nassau County, which is on Long Island, just outside of the city, if it goes Republican as it always has, will elect David Dows, of Muttontown, its new sheriff. Mr. Dows is a millionaire many times over and lives in a mason high on a hill that overlooks most of the territory he will have to rule. Nassau has graduated a lot of millionaires into politics. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., running for office first in that county, Robert Bacon, John W. Davis and Parker Corning are others who vote early and often—but not on the same day—in Nassau County. Altars of 100,000 Nuptials. The "Little Church Around the Corner," the famous actors' religious home, has just been made the subject of another book.

The "Little Church Around the Corner," the famous actors' religious home, has just been made the subject of another book. The book, "Through the Lich-Kate," tells how more than 100,000 weddings have been celebrated in the edifice. More than 75,000 visitors annually wander through the famous Episcopal church and gaze at the mementos to Joe Jefferson and other famous men of the stage who were members. Many of them leave contributions. The nickname of the famous church was given it fifty years ago when a nearby fashionable church refused to hold the funeral of George Holland, a distinguished actor, because of his profession. The minister of that church remarked: "There's a little church around the corner which might hold the services." The real name—the Church of the Transfiguration—has been almost forgotten for the much-loved appellation.

That is why pure Syrup Pepsin is so good for women. It just suits their delicate organism. It is the prescription of an old family doctor who has treated thousands of women patients, and who made a special study of bowel troubles. It is fine for children, too. They love its taste. Let them have it every time their tongues are coated or their skin is sallow. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is made from fresh laxative herbs, pure pepsin and other harmless ingredients. When you've a sick headache, can't eat, are bilious or sluggish; and at the times when you are most apt to be constipated, take a little of this famous prescription (all drug stores keep it ready in big bottles), and you'll know why Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the favorite laxative of over a million women! DR. W. B. CALDWELL'S SYRUP PEPSIN A Doctor's Family Laxative The national credit concern is only part of the financial relief President Hoover contemplates, judging from the conferences he has held with leaders of both parties in Congress. It is said he outlined to them a desire to have the Federal Reserve Act amended in order to bring it more into line with present business methods, which have changed immensely since the original Act was passed in 1913. The main purpose of the changes will be to enlarge the powers of Federal Reserve Banks so they can discount paper they are now forbidden to handle. In addition, he is said to have asked Congressmen to support measures to rebuild the Federal Farm Loan Board, which lends money on long-time mortgages, so that it can handle more securities than it is now able to accept. This is not to be confused with the Federal Farm Board. There is also a strong likelihood that the War Finance Board will be revived in order to support the new national credit corporation in the extension of credit. A further step contemplated will give relief to city real estate owners by allowing the new corporation to loan its funds on city mortgages. Such action would lead to a revival of building operations in all cities and take care of the idle workers in one of the country's largest industries. The President has been accorded high praise on all sides for his constructive work, especially as he has not done it for the mere purpose of winning votes. All his acts have been done on a nonpartisan basis, members of both major parties having been consulted and allowed to obtain their proper share of the credit for "saving the country." Political observers here claim that Mr. Hoover has done more to restore his waning popularity by his recent acts than any President in recent years and those who had begun to fear he was doomed to defeat in next year's campaign have taken new hope.
