HE’S OI K CHARLIE
HEAVENS! Carl Goerch doesnt
know our Charlie! And, he
admits it openly in The State yes
terday. Well, that’s one error \e
had better correct quickly, for
there’s not a nicer chap in North
Carolina than is Charlie. The
young fry like him, but when he
comes in to raid the icebox, he 's
always welcome and a general fa
vorite with parents as well. There
are few boys anywhere as settled
and yet as full of fun as Charlie.
But here is what Brother Goerch
said about him yesterday in dis
cussing football contest results:
“We don’t know Charles E. Moore,
Jr., of Asheboro, personally, and
we don’t know what kind of work
he is doing or contemplates doing.
But if we were in his place, we’d
let everything slide and go into tne
fortune-telling business.
“Out of 29 games played by Big
Five teams thus far this season, he
has gu?ssed every cne of them cor
rectly (ties don’t count) and, as a
result, he still holds first place in
The State's game-guessing contest
in which prizes of $ 25,$15 and $10
are being offered for the best guess
es.
“But what a road that boy has to
travel from now on!
“Next Saturday he picks North
Carolina to beat Duke and State to
beat Manhattan. Later on, he picks
Duke ro defeat Pitt. If he guesses
right on those and others, we’re
going to pal the young gentleman
a personal visit and get him to ad
vise us about the stock market.
“However, Charles isn’t the only
one with a chance at the cash
prizes. His closest rival is a lady
—Miss Hazel Crissman, of PittJ
boro, who has made only ONE bad
guess thus far. (Colgate over
Duke). In the forthcoming garnet,
she picks Duke to beat North Car
olina, Manhattan to beat State
and Pitt to beat Duke.
“And then, we still have nine left
who have made only TWO bad
guesses thus far, and here they
are:
“R. N. Page, III, Aberdeen.
“H. B. Owen, Fayetteville.
“Mrs. Henry Lea, Jr., Winston
Salem.
“Dr. E. C. Powell, Jr., Rocky
Mount.
“Emily Hilker, Jr., Raleigh.
“A. R. Crisp, Lenoir.
“I. R. Williams, Reidsville.
“Francis Pleasants, Aberdeen.
“William Dunn, Jr., Raleigh.
“Along with those, we have about
twenty-five who have made onlv
three bad guesses and probably
fifty or sixty who have four guess
es to their discredit.
“At the other end of the list, we
have some who have made as many
as twelve and thirteen sorry guess
es.
“It will be interesting to observe
the changes that take place in th'
standings from now on. WeV
inclined to believe that the folk
who have made three bad guesser
still have a chance at one of th'
prizes. Also possibly those wh'
hare as many as four misses mark
ed up against them.
“Next week well endeavor to
publish a complete list of names of

HUNGER
fNGER drove a 10-year-oM
New York lad to hanging him
in his hare apartment-home
hey ana tired of going to bod
gtfpitifrt after night, and hia
fly thought he had got tip to
ifie » gtape in the cupboard to
until the father decided he could
sell some trinkets and help along.
The relief worker*, hearing- of his
efforts to help his family himself,
cut them off relief, ahd the Ne<"
Yorkers Wouldn’t buy his trinkets.
Possibly you read the story. If
j you did, did you think—and did you
' wonder what relief is doing to peo
ple? There must be some way of
helping helpless people, and not
stopping their own efforts. That
father soon went to the hospital
where they are trying to feed him
/up sufficiently to operate. But, if
our relief rules prevent an ill man
from trying to sell a few trinkets
and retain his self-respect as a pro
vider foV his family, we had better
set about at once to change our re
lief methods. Surely we could
work oil1 a plan to help people help
themselves.
Possibly relief rules are different
in North Carolina from those in
New York state. But, that’s the
trouble—we do not know what they
are. Wo should—we pay for :t.
Again, the chorus is appropriate
citizens should inform themselves.

Washington
'Day Book
By PRESTON GROVER
Washington—People who grow
excite 1 over what could happen to
the $50,000,000,000 social security
reserve now. piling up in the treas
ury might be interested in what
happened eo educational trust funds
in the states.
The social security money be
ing paid in by employes and em
ployers is used by the federal
treasury for current expenses and
government I.O.U. notes are sub
stituted for it. It is all perfectly
legal—not in the same class, of
course, with what has been done
by some states to federal school
funds.
Cornell Did All Right
In the years before the Civil
war, the government began making
land grants to the States for edu
cational purposes. Each state was
expected to sell the land at a fair
price. The money was to be put in
“irrevocable” trusts so that only
the interest' would be used to help
school children learn the better
way of life.
Some states did very well. Cor
nell university is partially sup
ported by a healthy endowment
| growing out of the wise operation
of its share of the New York state
1 allotment. Old Ezra Cornell kept
both the land and the money out
I of the hands of political operators
I and his name is praised to this
I day.
it is true tne tederai govern
ment seemed to guard the land
grants with all the protective leg
islation a person could want the
most potent of which was a re
quirement that if any of the prin
cipal of the fund should be lost,
strayed, or be stolen, the state
would have to make it good.
Some states did the best they
[ could, which often enough was
jnot much. Others had politicians
from time to time who looked
upon the school endowment funds
mainly as a means of pulling
friends out of financial holes.
Individual Loans Made
Many a political hencyman has
wheedled himself a loan from
the endowment funds in amounts
far out of proportion to the prop
erty he left in the hands of the
state as security. Some states still
own barem mountain ridges and
miles of cut-over forest land to
show for husky lumps of educa
tional funds.
Some states simply dumped the
endowment money into the state
treasury to use for salaries and
roads. In turn they prolhised to
pay to the schools the yearly
equivalent of five per cent inter
?st on the money diverted. They
have to support the schools any
vay so it is easy enough for a State
to comply with the federal law
by specifying that of the $2,800,
100 oi so appropriated for schools,
$1,200,000 is really interest on the
andowments.
One western state, finding itself
n the midat of an agricultural de
pression, poured out the school
noney in the form of loans on
arms. Quite a few chunks went
o favored sons of the state po
itical party then in power as
oana on worthless or nearly
vorthless properties their owners
lever expected to redeem.
"It was the prise we had to pay
or recovery,’' answered one poli
ician, when called to account by a
uccceding administration.

■WASHINGTON.—Higher wages
" for the most exploited, poorly
paid classes of labor; shortei
hours which would spread work in
many indus
tries and con
trol over child
labor — these
are objectives
in perhaps the
administration's
most important
proposal to the
special session
of Congress.
At the last
session the Sen
ate macerated
and passed a
_ . „ , . once-ambitious
Rodney Dutcher acjm in istration
wage-hour bill. The House labor
committee made further changes
and approved this measure. Then
a combination of Republicans and
Southern Democrats on the rules
committee stifled it. House leaders
promised to move to get the bill
onto the floor at the next session
as promptly as possible.
That’s the way it stands now,
except that in intervening months
a strong, well-financed propa
ganda campaign has been
organized against the bill. The
administration takes the attitude
that most of the current criticism
is designed not to improve the
bill, but to kill it.
The House bill provides for a
labor standards board which
would be empowered to establish
maximum hours not lower than 40
a week and minimum wages not
higher than 40 cents an hour.
These standards would be set only
for industries in interstate com
merce (with numerous excep
tions), industry by industry, and
theoretically would be delayed ir
application where threat of harm
ful effects existed.

“Footnotes To The Film,” Edited
By Charles Davy; (Oxford: $•!.
50).
A literary exploration of the
movies, chiefly from the British
point of view, is being published
this month as “Footnotes to the
Film.’" Charles Davy is the editor
(for the book is a symposium) and
binds the whole together with a
concluding essay on the subject
of whether the film is worth while,
or noi. He thinks it is.
A symposium is perhaps the
most dangerous mould for a book.
In this case, as in many others, the
book would have been better had
Mr. Davy interviewed the 17 col
laborators, and then written the
result of his research. There would
then have been eliminated certain
overlapping passages, the 17 per
sonal biases would have been re
focussed into only one personal
bias (making everything much
easier to evaluate), and the book
would have had unity.
Mr. Davy would, certainly, in
sist that it has unity now Every
body is talking about fiilms—Rob
ert Donat as an actor, for example,
and Alexander Korda as a director.
But Graham Greene looks at things
as Mr. Green, the writer, and Sid
ney L. Bernstein from the dubious
crag occupied by the theater own
er. Say, for example, the doughty
Mr. Bernstein: “The first function
of the cinema should not be prop
aganda but entertainment.... ”
just like that!
Editor Davy divides his book
four ways. There is a preliminary
section on which people speak for
the director, the actor, the camera
man. The collaboration of the other
arts in film-making is discussed by
five gentlemen, and in a third sec
tion, the problems of the industry
are considered by four more ex
perts.
Only in the concluding section,
called “Films and the Public,” is
the public overtly considered, and
of the five people consulted, in ad
dition to Mr. Davy, not one repre
sents the public really. It seems
curious that nobody thought of
adding the patron to the list; cer
Itainly there exits in Britain at
, least one literate cinema patron
who could have contributed an ar
ticle written strictly from the lay
! viewpoint.

Edited for the New York Acade

By Jago faldston, M. D.
Colds Prevention —II
Good nutrition, adequate rest,
fresh air, proper clothing and the
avoidance of chilling the body,
notably the feet, head and neck,
help substantially in preventing
colds and minimizing the damage
they do when contracted.
By “good nutrition” we have par
ticularly in mind adequate vitamin
intake. The claim tnat curiam
mins are specifically cold preven
tives is not upheld by experience.
But it is true that individuals suf
fering from vitamin deficiencies
are likely to be more susceptible
to cold infections.
Particular attention should be
paid to the intake of vitamins A,
C and D, and, for good measure,
vitamin B. These vitamins are con
tained an whole- grain cereals, in
the' green leaf vegetables, in the
citrus fruits, in tomato juice, in
eggs, milk, cheese and butter fats,
and in fatty fish foods. To make
certain of an adequate vitamin D
intake, it is a wise precaution to
add to the diet cod liver oil or one
of the cod oil equivalents.
One does not and should not take
vitamins for vitamins’ sake. The
so-called vitamin concentrates are
to be used only on. the doctor’s pre
scription.
To insure an adequate vitamin
intake, one need only build his
daily diet around the stable foods—
whole g&in cereals, eggs, milk,
butter, cheese, fruits, green vege
tables, plus meats and fish.
Of adequate rest and fresh air
we need not say much, except that
excessive fatigue lowers vitality
and resistance to infection.
Attention to proper clothing, so
as to avoid chilling the body, is an
important item in the prevention
of colds. Exposure of the feet and
head and neck regions to chilling
temperatures causes a correspond
ing sudden change in blood circu
lation. It has been shown that such
quick changes in circulation lower
the vitality of the cucious mem
branes of the respiratory system.
The barriers against infection are
thus' weakened, and colds may fol
low.
One of the earliest scientific ob
servations oh this score was made
by Louis Pasteur. He found that
chickens are ordinarily resistant
to the anthrax germs, but chickens
that have been immersed in cold
water become susceptible to them.
Common experience has many
times shown that a cold is likely
to follow exposure to cold drafts,
and after one’3 feet have been cold
and wet for some time.
His Majesty The King

London —4JPi—Think of the
I British nobility, when rent day

red rose.
One family holds an estate sim

MANHATTAN
By GEORGE TUCKER
New York—In the front row
at an opening of a play the other
night sat an actress who used to
be one of New York’s best, but
who gave up Broadway to become
a successful glamor girl of the
films.
Clutched tightly to her was a
package of some sort and she held
it so carefully that I asked her
what in the world it was.
“You look nervous,” I said,
“that must be very valuable.”
“I don’t know,” she said. “This
could be a small fortune er it-could
be nothing."
Then she explained: “I keep my
jewels and their imitations in
identical boxes. This afternoon I
thought I was taking the imita
tions down to a friend who wanted
t.o borrow them, but suddenly 1
had a premonition that these were
the leal ones, and now I can't tell
until 1 have my jeweler look at
them. He’s going to let me know
after the theater.
“But couldn’t you tell be com
paring them with the other set at
home?”
"No, I couldn’t. As a matter of
fact, it was my friend who first
thought that I had made the mis
take. I Wanted her to wear the
jewels anyway but she refused.
It war, too late to go by my jewel
ers than, but I telephoned him and
made arrangements to see him
after the theater.”
Next day I hurriedly scanned
the headlines to see if some
snatch-thief had relieved the pret
ty of her jewels. But evidently she
got them safely home. Can you
imagine taking a fortune to the
theater and not knowing whether
it's a phoney or real?
At the automobile show I ran
into further activities of the
camera fiends. They were mostly
tourists, armed with diminutive
motion picture cameras, who
lurked in ths aisles waiting to take
pictures of the celebrities who
sauntered past the cars.
Oim young man said enthusias
tically: “This is great. When I get
home I’m going to give a motion
picture show, charging admission,
and I'll make enough to spend
Xmas in Havana.”
Among the “names” he had
caught were Helena Rubinstein,
Police Commissioner Lewis Val
entine, Gertrude Lawrence, George
M. Cohn, Jack Dempsey, Guy
Lombardo, Paul Draper, Oscar of
the Waldorf, Sylvia Sidney and
Henry Fonda. •'
Another favorite diversion of
the camera-minded ones was to
pose in the ritzier machines, either
behind the wheel or leaning non
dr^ijantly against the door while
having themselves photographed.
A third ruse was asking a celeb
rity for a match while a confed
erate “shot” the scene. He could
then return home and flash him
helf on the screen getting a light
from Doug Fairbanks or whom
ever it happened to be. Some fun!

program?
Answer: The public assistance
program is a state-federal program,
administered by the state, in ac
cordance with the state law which
has been approved by the social se
curity board as meeting the re
quirements of the social security
set. The federal government makes
grants to the state matching dollar

state to a qualified needy aged per
son. un o a maximum federal gra it
of $15 a month for each suen
son.
Question: Where will 1 get forms
on which to make my monthly so
cial security tax returns?
Answer: Title VIII of the social
security act requires an employer
to make monthly tax returns to the
collector of internal revenue. These
returns are made on Form SS-1. A
copy of this form has been sent to
you. When you make your return
ask the collector of internal menus
to send you additional forms on
which to make future returns. Make
all tax payments to the collector of
internal revenue and do not sand
cadi or checks for taxes to the so
cial security board.

Question: My husband has just
died and the undertaker has given
me a paper to fill out and told me
to file a claim for a payment under

do so?
Answer: The social security boaid
is making lump sum payments to
eligible workers, or to the estates
or relatives of deceased eligible
workers, under the old age insur
ance provisions of the social secur

seeking to help the relatives of de
ceased workers by calling their at
tention to the fact that a lump sum
payment may be due them under
the law. Whether a payment is
due to you can not be determined
on the basis of the information you
