DAVIDSON SAYS
DAD PICKING UP
Apparently He Is Not As Popular
As Mother, But Is Rapidly
Gaining Ground
On Sunday, June 19th., the
Forgotten Men of the nation cele
brate their 24th. birthday, and if
all the efforts now being made
to pull them from Obscurity are
realized, 25,000,000 dads may
overnight become America’s re
membered men, for next Sunday
is Father’s Day.
A country which now celebrat
es more than 84 special days and
weeks has managed to squeeze
in the third Sunday in June to
pay tribute to the man who pays
the freight for all other celebra
tions.
Apparently father is only one
third as popular as mother, if the
volume of Father’s Day telegrams
is any criterion, says Mr. David
son, manager of the local tele
graph office. As recently as 1928
Father’s Day was only one
seventh as popular as Mother’s
Day, but two years later there
was one Father’s Day telegram
for every four on Mother’s Day.
The depression set dad back to
his 1928 rating, but sinoe then
his climb has been faster than
ever before.
Where once it was considered
somewhat of a joke to remember
dad on Father’s Day, the obser
vance of the day has now be
come firmly entrenched, although
no special flower has been sel
ected for him. The dandelion has
been suggested but flowers—by
telegraph officials will not com
mit themselves.
Mrs. John Bruce Dodd of Spo
kane, Wash., originated Father’s
Day in 1910, and the occasion
fathered sufficient Jmomentuin
for Congress to endorse the cele
bration of the day in 1914. Ef
forts are under way this year to
have president Roosevelt issue an
official Father’s Day proclama
tion.

CONGRESS HELD OVER
Washington, E>. C. All efforts
to adjourn Congress last week
failed because of lack of action
on important bills, and leaders
are pledged to speed up work this
week to insure adjournment by
Friday. As it finally emerged
from conference the Wages and
Hours bill was hardly recogniz
able as either House or Senate
versions. For the first two years
the mandatory hourly whge is
25 and 30 cents respectively. Af
ter seven years the minimum
goes to 40 cents, or earlier if in
dustrial boards determine. For
the first three years employment
is fixed at 44,542 and 40 hours
per week. The bill’s sponsors say
that it is “air-tight” constitution
ally.
