BUY NOW.
The Washington . Times believes
that the time is now ripe for the
American people! Io buy their neeas
and so far as they are able. In this
they hold the’ same view as other
newspapers oter -the nation. It is a
certainty that commodity prices are
going up, in fact they are already
up to a The prover-
hail summefejuiKp,4f there was one,
is a thing ■ past- now and it is
September time to begin
* that fall The Times:
Septeml>«* X |Ure. You wonder
where will be— and.
where yctwiriil. be —at the end of
another month'. "
The to both questions
depends iragely on you.
It depends on you and some
hundred million other Americans
represent ’the buying power of the
United States.
If you BUY times, will get bet
ter.
If you don’t buy, times will get
worse.
Buy r ow, buy in September and
help conditions improve.
Prices will rise, they have been
rising, they are rising now.
Not only will you help the
country by buying now, but you
will help yourself.
Your country is important and
you are important. I
Both neej all the help they can
get. ’ ..
This newspaper urged its read
ers to buy in August if they
could. August is a slack month.
Better bargains are available
then than at other times of the
year.
Many persons took that advice
and have profited up with neces
sities lol' their homes, for them
selves, fcr their children.
They have SAVED money by
SPENDING money.
Their dollar was worth more
than it will be, and they have got
more for it than they can now.
Thosa who did not buy in Au
gust, hov ever, have another com
paratively slack month ahead in
which to :.ct. September prices, it
is safe to say, will be lower than
October's, as October’s will be
lower than November’s, and No
vember's lower than December’s.
Then, too, every dollar yor
spend is a dollar toward an extra
job for somebody who otherwise
will have to depend on charity or
city or state relief.
Whether you give to charity or
net, you give to city and state and
evsn naional relief by paying
ta ies.
Paying taxes gets you nowhere
—paying for things ttat you need
docs.
Buying whatever you can afford
to is practical economy and prac
tical patriotism.
The Government is doing its
part.
Indur try has begun to do its
part.
It is up the consumer now to do
h’s part.
Buy in September anA make
that month the LAST of hard
times for the nation.

BY JACK MARTIN
Central Press Writer
Brooklyn. N. Y., Sept. 7.—Perhaps •
it isn't the best way to learn how to
swim, but Eleanor Holm, who has
been called by experts-the swimming
marvel ( of all time, learned her first
stroke.on a pair of water wings. So
if she did it,-perhaps we common
mortals who can't swim had better try
the same method.
No one taught Eleanor in those ear ■
ly days. Hhe Holms had a summer
home at Long Beach, L. 1., on the
ocean, and Eleanor spent most of her
time on the Peach. She played in the ’
surf almost before she had graduated
from her toddling days, and thereby
overcame one of the faults which fet
ter many young swimmers.
Learned to Duck
The waves came rolling in over her
head, and she had to learn to take a
ducking without getting her nose full

HENDERSON. (N.C.)' DAILY DISPATCH, THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 7,1935 W
of Wftler. Soon she was able to exhale
under water, and catch her breath be
tween wave. That was one of the
most vauable things she ever learn
ed,-she says.
Today Eleanor suggests that per
sons attempting to swim shuold learn
that lesson well. Put your face un
der water and exhale, she says, and
keep it up until you do it without
thinking when, water comes over your
head. Also, it’s a good way to over
come fear of. ’he water, if you have it.
When Eleanor was 12 she decided
that just jumping an the surf would
never do for her. >so she bought a*
pair of water-wings. She lashed them
to her buck. ..and paddled out, . into
deep. water the first day. The next
day the life guards found her pad
dling away, on. the wings out beyond
the breakers. They forced her in nad
pronounced many dire threats if she
dnred gh okt or-#h«tt<rw water, agadn:*?' ■
Transferred Activities
' Eleanor then transferred her ac
tivities to the Olympia pool, at Long
Beach. She liked the diving boards
there, so about her third day at the
pool, she was diving from the 10-foot
board. And this, mind you, before
she could swim. The boys at the pool
would swim out and tow her in after
every dive. She still was doing all
hei’ swimming on water wings, but,
she says, “Imagine my surprise one
day when I found I didn’t need them.”
From then on her progress was
rapid. The Olympia pool held weekly
children’s swimming races, and Elea
nor ente ed. Within two months she
was winning every race she started.
Finally the management barred her
from competition, because the other
kids didn’t have a chance against
her.
All this time Eleanor was using her
venison of the crawl. It apparently
wasn’t a bad version, because it
ccitaintly propelled her through the
Water “like a streak of lightning.”
Watched Stars
Then came some momentous,bcoa-,
Sions in Eleanor’s young life. Ailenn
Riggin, Olmpic diving and swimming
champion; Sybil BaueX backstroke
star; Gertrude Ederle'; Agnes Ger
ahty. breast stroke, and Adelaide
Lambert, medley champion, wef'e
brought to Long Beach for a series of
swimming exhibitions.
Eleanor sat on the sidelines wide
eyed, eagerly taking in every move
they made. After they had finished
she world get into her suit and try
their strokes. ’ imitating everything
they did. “And I thought I could beat
them even then,” she confided later.
Again in this Eleanor finds another
valuable hint for beginners. Watch
the best swimmers, and try to do as
they do, she advises. If you follow
their movements carefully in your
practice, soon the movements wilt
come naturally.
Eleanor, in this one short ummer,
built considerable of a reputationn at
Long Beach as a swimmer, When she
returned to Brooklyn for the winter
her favorite pool was at Erasmus Hall
High school, where she was a student.
She took part in many outside ac
tivities, was away often attending
swimming meets but still she remain
ed one of the foremost students in her
class, and was graduated in 1930. Alo,
she set some all-time records at
at Erasmus for popularity.
Had Many Beaus
Whenever a beautiful girl becomes
as prominent as Eleanor, the world
immediately sees every casual friend
ship as a. romance. Eleanor’s name
has been linked with many men in a
romatic way, but in her school days
she “played the field.’” She liked to
go around with the captains of the
various school athletic team, and she
usually could be found with them ai
school parties. In this way she had
many beaus, because she transferred
her attentions from one captain tc
another, as his particular sport came
in season.
Eleanor also, in those days, showed
the first indications of her histrionic
talents. She was nearly always study
ing her role as star in ome school
play, or minstrel show.
(Tomorrow: Eleanor the champion;
why experts call her the most amaz
ing star of all time.)
m®KUTE
CONTRACT VIOLATOR
Government To Handle
Those Who Signed Cot- .
ton Pledge and Then
Backed Out
College Station, Raleigh, Sept. 6. —
Those few farmers contracting to plow
up cotton during the recent reduction
campaign and who have so far failed
to comply with the terms of their con
tract, must be prepared to suffer the
consequences of their failure as soon
as legal machinery can be set in mo
tion, according to information secur
ed from the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration at Washington this
week. f >
At a cotton conference, held .in
Washington with extension directors
of the South last Saturday, legal re
presentatives of ‘the administration
said that local condmiteemen should
notify the few failing to plow bp cot
ton, according to contract, that the
matter would not- be* allowed to drop.
After local committeemen have tried
in every way to get the techlcitrant
planters to destroy the cotton, then the
matter will be referred to the Depart
ment of Justice.
eeeeecmfwyp shrdlu taoin cmfwyp py
It was indicated that United States
Deputy marshals would be called up
on to visit the farms where the con
tract has been broken and notify the
grower that he must comply with his
contract. If the contract is not then
complied with the necessary warrants
will be issued and the matter carried
into the United States courts.
In discussing the matter with the
extension directors, the legal repre
sentatives expressed thmselves as be
ing dtermined that all reduction con
tracts -must be funifilled to the let
ter; Some contracts' will be arbitarted
where mistakes were made or where
unusual conditions have surrounded
their being carried out in full. How
ever, wilful failure to epoperate will
be punished— otherwise the Agricul
tural-Adjustment' program will lack
sufficient force .to make it ffective in
the work of reducing crop surpluses
in' the Nation, it was' said.
