Paul :i:‘nison -
NEW YORK.~The tumult and
the shouting in. the night spots
aereabout is like ncthing you've
aeard since the bedlam of 1929.
.t seems to be a Kind of hey-hey
-ysteria, or maybe just the holler
«ay spirit,
Anyway, thousands of little
vooden 'clappers are dinning on
.ables; ice in glesses tinkles a de
ression requiem, ~applause fsn
gulfs bushed entertainers; and
-ne customers are up to all sorts
of connivial, highjinks. Jewels
.ash, top-hats plop, and from the
lizzard of ermine coats I judge
.t will be a white Yuletide. Play-
Joys are tossing around' bills of
impressive denominations, and
-ollege youngsters are in town to
io their Christmas shopping.
Cabaret shows have responded
to the mood, as witness the Man
aatton Music Hall, renamed and
with a new bill, where Al Trahan
ind Lady Yukona Camerpn com-~
mit everything from disturbance
£ the peace to insult-and-battery.

~ Then there are Broadway’s!
‘flesh~spots, the Paradise, Holly
~wood and Palais Reoyal, each with
1 thousand or so customers and
“horus acts that are practichlly
mob scenes. There may he more
to these young women than meets}
the eye, but there can't be much
more, |
There's a certain decorum,'
though noisy, about these super- |
spectacle places. Individual whoo
pee is manufactured at the small- |
er clubs which are reminiscent of |
prohibition days. ;l‘he Bal Mu-|
sette, for example, 'is tolerant of
all sorts of monkey business . . ‘

welterweight champion of France).

In fact, it's a sort ,of perpetual
amateur night. K%‘ng's Terracel
has rough-and-tumble entertain- |
ment featuring some people called |
the Three Racketeers, which mayl
give you an idea. ]
Up in Harlem, the famous old |
Cotton club has shelved its pre- |

'will introduce a bill to reduce

{interest rates.of # 1z pir cent pe.‘
illlUl.\h on amounts of sstu,vy to 1‘
| per cen: per month.” !
i The awmenian described the“
| “br-sent situation as serioys” bu.
‘not ruesperate,” asserting that
{ “there is no sense in anyone emul-l
jating the ostrich, which sticks ite
{ head into the samc so as mnot ¢

you only your wife and bitter re

| or later crystalize into action.”

I “The sales tax seems to be grow
{ing in public favor, but it will mee:
| with secret and strong opposition
i from powerful sourcis. If passea
'there should be a corresponding re
duction in ad valorem, or the state
shoulg collect the tax and allo
, cate it to the various school units
{which will have the same effect
upon every tax payer, and also pre
| vent a reduction of hundreds ot
!mousand of dollars in the ad val
lorcm taxis of enormous property
j holders - with very small benefit to
| the small property holders.
{ “This being a revenue measure,
| it would have to originate in ths
:h(mse, but I will cooperate with
tany member of the house who
! thinks_along the same lines, 3
i “If this is not effected, every
{ member of the general assembly
Iwill have to go back to,his con
; stituents with nothing done and
]only “n apology to make which
{ wiill not, and should not be accept-
Ix";d. ¢
] Need Relief
{ “A general sales tax affecting

I “But something must be done for
g'the immediate relief of the averag:
{ man and those ®till worse off. If
' nothing else is accomplished the
| preeent interest rate of 8 per cent
' should e reduced from 8 per gent
Im 6 per cent and I intend to intro- |
Quee such a bill, together with the}
| lowering of the ' present interest
‘rate of 3 1-2 per cent per month |
“cn amounts of $300.00 to 1 per, cent |
per month. Penalties © edtild be |
provided which would make this ef
fective, such as forfeiture of all

that no suits should be maintained
