C.—A definite pro-, gram of basic research which it is j honed will result in the discovery of ^ new and very important uses of cottonseed products has been j launched by the Inorstate Cotton seed .Crusher’s Association with D- ; E. P. Clark, noted chemist, in charge, according to an announce-1 met t by Former United States I Senator Christie Benet. general 'counsel of the association. It is the belie! oi the associa tion, Senator Benct said, that noteworthy results will come from j Dr. Clark’s work and that the use | of cottonseed products will thus he very greatly extended. Dr. Clark spent four years on the scientific staff of the Rockfeller Institute for medical research, one year in the carbohydrate division of the bureau of chemistry at Washington ] and two years in the chemical research at the University of Al berta, at Edmonton. Canada, his | work there having been support ed by the Carnegie corporation j and in association with Dr. J. B. I Coll ip, famous for his isolation of I insulin and Senator Benet said he j felt is eminently fitted for the work he is undertaking. “In attempting to develop new .uses for cottonseed products the i association feel« that it is launch ing a program will be of benefit not only to its own members but | to the entire south and partieu 1 lnrly to the farmers." said Mr. I Benct. “The farmer is ahsoluetely dependent upon the oil mill and the 1 refiner to take his seeds of value, j While there are many agencies i working to extern! the uses of eot ! ton, the oil mill and the refit-m are in alone in their efforts to dc ; velop new uses for cottonseed and , to improve the ([uality of cctton j seed products. | “The price of cottonseed, as of I everything else, is regulate,) en tirely by the demand and this de ' -var>r| is of course created try the ! market for cottonseed prduets It matters not how large or how small the crop of cotton may he, the price of seed is regulated by ability of the oil mills and th» r'-finer5’ to dispose of their prod ucts. Therefore in attempting to extend the uses of seed, the nsso- j ciation is benefiting the farmer I directly and through him the on-1 tire south.” !

Youthful Delinquency Is Blamed By Survey On Conditions Found At Home ^ Richmond, Va.—rroboitfon is not materially decreasing "bad ness” among southern boys am* girls, nor is it saving the American home, is the conclusion reached by Mrs. June 1’. Gold, a.u'.nor, lawyer, student of social phenomena anu member of the council or social agencies, who has conducted a sur vey in the South, the results of which were knqyvn. “Indeed, conditions in the homes seem to be the outstanding cause of juvenile delinquency,” she said. “Before there is a marked Im provement a sounder ».ome life must be established.” Mrs. Guild received replies to a questionnaire ffdfft 17 juvenile courts, a superintendent of public welfare, and a superintendent of a board of child welfare in Florida, Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, Texas, Georgia, West Virginia and Missouri. (>: the lb replies, six gave prohibi tion a general or qualifed ap proval as a deterrent to delin quency, six indicated that condi tions weer worse than before the adoption of the amendment, three insisted that dry laws had little effect on juvenile misbehavior anq four did not comment. A Virginia court noted an In crease in sex problems and blam ed lack of home training, too many automobiles and the- prohibition law, which “has some direct ef fect in increasing delinquency ano an indirect effect even »-:rger.” "Children are too free,” said a North Carolina court, adding that “immorality i: the elder problem among the girls and stealing and fighting that of the boys."* A West Virginia agency report ed virtually the same as the North Carolina court with regard to de linquencies of boys and girls. Alabama reported promiscuity also, blaming a lack or respect be tween parents and daughters. A Georgia juvenile court said, “we need preventive woi*. in the school through Parent-Teachers as sociations.” A Georgia judge added that th~ prohibition law “has accomplished great good.” A direct campaign "f education on “sex matters” as a preventive of great value was advocated by * famous Florida city’s court. Flor ida officials had praise for the prohibition law wth certain ex ceptons. A Tennessee jurist note' “a revolt against purer:a* oc troi,” and another found "povert> responsible for general «i*iin quency.” The following solutions were suggested: H l| B '■ Return to the “old-fashioned way' of rearing children, organ ise and educate parents, establish fc.-tter schools, put every child at work or in school, provide super vised play, prevent youthful mar riages, pass more juvenile Tegts lation, organize protective assoc iations, form child study groups, establish a psychiatric dine, form “big brother” and “big sister” or ganizations. provde p:\r-,or oenal t:,js for rn'isbehaviof, coordinate state and social agenecs and hpia state conferences of social wor-.c ers. Blue Laws Good For Soul But Bad For Business Claim Pleasure Folks B Ocean Grove, N. J.—Blue Sunday may be good for the soul, but it is bad for business. From blue sky, blue sea and blue laws the in evitable result is blue landlords. This is the real reason why Mrs. Martha Kur.st and her band of citizens of Ocean Grove, Incor porated, are fighting, or attempting to fight, strict observance of the blue laws which the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association de mands. Good Relief This flood of indigo must be re lieved with streaks of gold, she maintains, or the sheriff is going to he busy foreclosing mortgages. At present, and for. the past half century, Ocean Grove, with a val uable ocean frontage, two hour from New York and in the heart of the week-end belt, has observed Sunday in no half-hearted manner. It has been decreed that the wheels of traffic and the marts of trade suspend on the Sabbath. Which would be very well, except that Asbury Park, just to the north outside the arch on one side, and Bradly Beach, directly south and separated only by a spite fence of garbage and tin cans, have given the non-Sabbath observers an even break on the Day of Rests. Thus these two towns pursue their un godly, perhaps, but highly profit able ways while Ocean Grove sus pends worldly pursuits. .Sabbath Cs 'm And whereas a beautiful calm breathes over Ocean Grove on Sunday, its inhabitants, are mostly the middle-aired and the elderly, or children whose idea of excite ment has not rone much beyond the sandpile. So flaminy youth gets out and flames against a more warmly tinted backsrround. Ocean Grove provides amply for religious expression. Practically any hour of the day, be<rinninp with sunrise, you can attend meetings at the temple or the tabernacle, whiere there are accommodations for 10,000 worshippers. There are young people’s meet ings, Sunday schools. Bible class es, sermons, vespers, hymn-singing at sundown and evening services in *our nla<‘es at once. But there is no traffic. Not a motor is allowed in or out of the limits of the town. Besides the regulation breakfast, luncheon and dinner, there is nothing yon can bay. For a harmless ice cream soda, pon, salt water taffv or a good filling hot dog sandwich you must cross the borders immediately to the North or South where the Pirdte" traditions do not prevail. A child may make a sandpile or. the beach, but he may not fly a kit* or go wading. An adult may read a Sunday newspaper if he cprpot buy it in Ocean Grove. No matter how hot the day. there is no justification for a-v man, woman or child going i.i bathing Further, the beach eons ace to it that strangers swim past •>nd do not. *ton m the shore where blue laws are blue. If a vacaiionist must *ake a train out of the city on Sunday, he must also take his own grina in Kiw own bonds. and convoy them | to Asburv Park or Bradley Peach. 1 “Thus ” points not \fr!5 Mart* a Kur.st, who is a hotelkeeper on '•ho Boardwalk nt Ocean Grove, “while we sing hvmns and have our Bine I Sunday*. Ashbury Park and Bra-'.1 lev Beret, got all the week-end i trade. Thus their property goes up while •ours goes down. They are building new hotels and making all modern improvements. We are■ wondering how we’ll pay next year’s taxes. “Our neighbors, with the same ocean, the same boardwalk, the same air, and the same desire to make money, prosper and get what we would get were it not for our intolerance.” A Chance Jersey coast resorts, she said, have become week-end place-: rath er than all-season Summer resorts, due to the fact that week-ending ai d motor trips have changed the eld idea of a Summer vacation on a hotel porch. “Instead of coming for a month, people now come from Friday or Saturday until Monday,” she wen: '”i “ai d hotelkeepers must make in three days what they once made in a week. Since Sunday is a blank with us in Ocean Grove, just where do we come in?” On the other hand, the sixteen men who from the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association and who aie determined that Blue Sundays shall remain true blue, declare that the association holds this ocean frontage from a charier from the state of New Jersey and that those who don’t like the idea can just get out and go to Coney Is land or any other modern Bafcy ’on where movies and sodas hold forth. ■ K B it: P a ■ g ■ ■ B B i » raj a a I o Fight “It's all r'ghi to tell those who , are dissatisfied with Ocean Grove ,to get out,” concluded Mrs. Kunst, j “but we can’t No one wants to : buy our property. Why should I they ? We are being forced to abide by laws made two hundred years ago, before the days of the auto, the soda, the one-piece bath ing suit-—and the flapper. It isn’t fair. Instead of getting out we are going to fight.” Rebuilt Rheim To Surprise Veterans Rv International News Serine Reims , Fr.—Those ex-dough hoys who remember tbe f'nthe- j dral of Rheims as a “huge oile of sandbags” have a big surprise in store for them when they visit this i city next month. The American Region expects several thousand T.ecionnaires to ; visit the “wonder city” of tbe war. They will see Rheims for the first lime, even though they saw it dur- i ing the war—as the eitv is e new one—risen from the ruins of 12,- ' 00U houses. In less than ten years this city of 70,000 inhabitants has been re j built and the former American j soldier will doubtless find much to wonder at. Most of the Americans that saw Rheims durit g the war saw the great Cathedral covered with sand j bag* to protect it 'rom »he almost ] continuous rain of high nowerod I shells rained upon it by the Ger- ! man guns.
