brought together by Premier Laval to aid in balancing the budget and
fl*htAftetrhseverai*m0onths of intensive activity, whose fruit has been

Rose In Railroad Service
Dautry Is the eldest of the three
when not acting us brain truster
ho Is director of the vast State
Railways, a Job to which he rose
from the humblest of beginnings.
Ho started, without political Influ
ence, at the age of 22 as district
englnoer after being graduated
from the dlfftcut Ecole Polytoch
nlque in 1902.
Dapper, small and slender but
giving the Impression of strength,
always moving and always busy,
Daultry Is talked of as the most
energentic man in France. It Is
an ordinary occurence for him
to work 18 hours a day, and ho
Is always getting extra Jobs to
do. For Instance, a few years
ago, when he was shoulder deep
In his task of rehabilitating tho
State Railways, having assumed
the directorship at a particularly
bad time, he wns asked as ft side
line to reorganize the French
Une. While still doing those two
Jobs he found time, at the gov
ernment's request, to revamp en
tirely tho commercial air line
Aeropostale.
Hold* No Pet Theories
Anything but a politician, Dau
try Indulges In neither pet the
ories nor political expedients, but
he Is keenly aware that his job
In the brain trust comes nt an
unusually crltlcnl time, and he
considers that he Is witnessing
and perhaps helping to fashion a
turning point In France's econo
mic and even political road.
Next In seniority Is C. J. dig
noux, blonde, blue-eyed, round
faced editor and economist, who
looks as grave and calm as Dau
try does Jumpy. He had a fling
at politics under Premier Flandln
as Under Secrotary of State for
National Economy, but ho does
not like political office. Once he
refused an Under Secretaryship of
War, offered by the late Andre
Maglnot, on the ground that he
know nothing about the job.
Economic Ideas Sound
Editor of the financial dally "La
Journee Industrlelle," and deeply
concerned with national Issues,
Qlgnoux nevertheless likes to con
sider himself a provincial and a
wine grower. Ho le an eminently
sober If bold economist who leaves
fantasy out of his serious work
and puts It Into books based on
flnnnce which he loves to write,
such ns "The Life of Baron Louis"
and “The Office of Dreams." The
latter Is concerned with the In
tricacies of the Law swindle.
Qlgnoux was a brilliant soldier
during the war and was wounded
nnd decorated on the battfleld.
From his war caretd he preserved
a picturesque argot which some
times startles the captains In In
dustry and finance with whom he
comes In contact. But he Is bour
geois despite his language and
greatly Interested In hts ancestral
wine fields near Lyons. A bril
liant scholar, he was educated at
the law school near Nancy and at
Bordeaux before beginning his
career at the Ministry of Com
merce.
Evolves Economic Law
Youngest and least known to
tho general public Is Rueff whom
Washington remembers as a re
sult of his mission there with
Laval some years ago. Still un
der 40, Rueff Is balder, more
thick set and stockier than his two
colleagues, more of a fanclal
theorist and perhaps more of a
scholar. Ho Is author of the Rueff
law, which nil economists know
and argue over. It Is a law estab
lishing a rigid relationship be
tween price levels, salary levels
and the number of unemployed.
Rueff stated his law In 1924, and
despite widespread criticism since,
his predictions have been no less
than 97 per cent accurate.
Like Dautry, Rueff Is a gradu
ate of the Ecole Polytechnique.
He Is Inspector of finance nt the
Finance Ministry — one of the
highest posts In the clcll service.
He la a staunch defender of eco
nomic liberalism and his economic
soultlons uro always made with
this liberalism In mind. Politici
ans profoundly respect him but
sometimes suggest, pcrhnps chur
ncterlstlcnlly. that ho forgets the
political side of government too
often when seeking to work out
economic problems.

Elaborate Plans Contem
plated to Mark Import

WASHINGTON HILL
At a meeting of the activities
committee of the Washington Park
Community club held last night at
the community house plans got
underway for the second annual
ball to be given by the club Oc
tober 4th. The event will mark the

hopes to make the event as suc
cessful as tho grand opening was
last year.
Tod Donahue, John Walton and
Ray Grady were named at last
night’s meeting to arrange for tho
music for the event and James
Gladney was named to act as
chairman of the ticket committee.
Another meeting will be held next
Tuesday evening.
Making New Track
Workmen under the direction of
William Single are now busy In
stalling a new race track In Wash
ington Park on the outfield of the
ball diamond. As races have been
staged at the park for the past
few years it was decided to have
the track and cinders will be
placed there as soon as the men
finished digging Hnd although It Ib
not likely that the track will be
used this year It will be In first
class condition when the park re
opens next summer.
Karbenders’ Outing
The lilarbenders of the commun
ity house will hold their annual
outing Saturday and all arrange
ments were completed at a meet
ing held recently by the commit
tee In charge.
May Change Voting Place
Although a petition Is being
circulated around the hill to have
the residents of the 14th district
vote at Hopevllle school Instead
of at O’Donnell's hall on Wash
ington street It Is unlikely that
Hopevllle school will be used. If
It does become necessary to change
from the regular voting place It
Is more than likely that Washing
ton school will be used Instead of
Hopevllle.

Weldl
mg
the best way to make
a perfect union of two pieces
of metal is by welding them
together\
... and the best way to get a more
pleasing flavor and a better taste in
a cigarette is by welding together the
different types of tobacco...
That is just what we do in making
Chesterfield Cigarettes—the three
types of mild ripe home-grown to
baccos, that is tobaccos grown in this
country, are welded together. Then
they are welded with aromadcTurkish.
When these tobaccos are welded'
together you get a combined flavor
which is entirely different from any
one type of tobacco.
It is this welding of the right
amounts of the right kind of tobac
cos that makes Chesterfield a milder
and better-tasting cigarette.
