Adventure Revived
. BY BRUCE CATTON
NEA Writer
_One of the strongest of all the habits possessed
fimmmnumwumemna
about the bonds which are forged when men unite
holding reunions. Apparently there is something
hswmthfltheymadow&wuken
wery much. And of all the reupions of ihe year,

the International Sourdough Association, held re

tune, there were a thousand who came back with
nothing but expefience for their pains. But that
Mhmymmmmnnumwl
reunions worth their while,
4+ A reunion of this sort celebrates the sharing of 2
great experience. The men who attend it are men
who are set apart from the rest of us by virtue
‘of their having participated in something so stir
ring and exciting that they find it worth talking
about all the rest of their lives. And the value of
that experience is the same Whether they got rich
. A% a matter of fact, it is a question whether
the typical gold-rush veteran ever, in the bottom
Of his heart, really cared very much about getting
‘& Jot of gold. He thought he did, of course; he
#ald he did, and be acted as if be did |
But the common sharing of a mad desire to get
rich guick would not be enough to bring hundreds
of men together each year in a great reunion. I
it did we would witness annual conventions of
the velerans of the bull market of 1929,
No, the gold-seekers of Alaska like the men who
opened up SBouth Africa, California, Australia and
the rest of the great gold fields, were really after
something else. Life suddenly gave them the op-'

Once upon a time the earth opened up for them
and took on a guise we stay-at-homed never saw.
It made them rich in experience, if not in purse.
There is more than a little solid sense in the
sugeestion Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler made the
other day about United States intervention In such
Latin-American countries as Cuba.
M. says Gen. Butler it becomes necessary to in
tervene to preserve law and order and protect the
lives and property of foreigners in Cuba or else
‘where, the United States might profitably invite
several Central and South American powers to join
in the expedition by contributing warships and men
Wflflwir own. If the intervention were really jus
tifled and were mot just a collection trip for Wall
Btreet bankers, these powers might well be glad
1o join. |
. Furthermore, if the United States intervened only
when othed American republics were so convinced
that intervention was necessary that they wm}
willing to take part in the action, it Is a safe bet
that intervention would be a much less common
occurrence than §t hag been in the past. |
Representative Samuel Dickstein of New York
urges that the government relax its immigration
rules so as to permit the entry into this country
of fugitives who have beenm driven from Germm‘y
and other Buropean countries by religious or poll
tical persecution * 1
It iy probable that this could be done without in
any way altering the fundamentals of our fmmi
gration restriction policy. We would not have to let
down tbe.:z and permit thg flood-tide of immi-
EBramts to 'f ‘over us as it did in the old days.

THE HOLLYWOOD SCENE
BY DAN THOMAS, NEA Service Writer
. HOLLYWOOD — After spending the last four or
five monthe searching through all English-speaking
countries for a girl to play the title role in “Alice
in Wonderland,” Paramount executives finally found
her—and right in their own back yard, so to speak .
Charilotte Henry, former Brooklyn girl who has
been playing very minor roles in pictures for the
f)n_n four years, is the one chosen to portray this
mythical character.
The extensive search for Alice should teach Hol
lywood something—but it probably won't, No mat
ter what it is the movie moguls desire, they always
g 0 about looking for it in the most diffcult manner
possible. If an actor, director or writer is desired,
they always start looking in the far-off cornerg of
the earth, never right here in Hollywood.
“Need for new tarent” is the excuse they use.
Yet there is more new talent in Hollywood today
than the studios could absorb during the next two
or three years. S
. Now that the main character has been secured,
E “Alice in Wonderland” will get under way in a
. really pretentious fashion. Among those already
| assigned to various roles Are Gary Cooper as the
- White Knight, Bing Crosby as the Mock Turtle,
. Jack Oakie ag Tweedledum, Charlie Ruggles as the
. White Rabbit, Louise Fazenda as the White Queen,
. Ford Sterling as the White King, Alison Skipworth
. s the Duchess, Leon Erroll as Uncle Gilbert, Patsy
. O'Byren as Alice’s Aunt, Bily Barty as the White
. Pawn, and Harvey Clark as Father William. Quite
. a supporting cast for a heretofore unknown actress,
.if you ask me.
. The other day while discussing Hollywood’g bril
. liant premieres, Kenneth Mac Kenna realeved how he
| @lmost lost his wife, Kay Francis, before he even
. Bad proposed to her. Ken had just signed his
| Contract with Fox so he and Kay set out for, the

j AN INTOLERABLE CONDITION
i The people of this nation have become
‘aroused over the millions of children who
lare suffering from malnutrition, or in
{other words, children who are not getting
‘enough to eat These undernourished
'children are growing up with feeble
'bodies which may, in a 2 great many in
stances, result in feeblemindedness. Of
ficial reports in 1930 gave the number of
hungry children at 6,000,000, Since that
time, however, the number has shown 2
‘material increase,
. Recognizing the appalling condition, a
‘national conference has been called by
Miss Frances Perkins, Secretary of Labor,
to meet in Washington October 6 to de
itermine the magnitude and extent of this
‘unfortunate condition and to find the best
method of remedying it. Miss Perkins is
acting timely and her efforts to relieve the
condition i= most commendable. Right
here in Georgia and, we suspect in Athens,
there are hundreds of children of school
and pre-school 2ge who are under
nourished. The condition is deplorable
when it is a known fact that the nation is
burdened with an over-production of food
stuff, and yet millions of children are cry
ing for bread.
The conference called by Secretary Per
!kins, for October is not for the purpose of
gzthering and compiling statistics, but to
relieve a condition that is not only appal
ling, but inhumane. As Miss Perkins has
wisely said: “No amount of statistics and
no number of bulletins can take the place
of a lamb chop and a glass of milk at the
right moment”. True as gospel. America,
the richest nation in the world, whose
people bought Liberty bonds “until it
hurt”, will not now fail to respond to the
call of the Secretary of Labor in her ef
fort to relieve a condition bordering on
starvation of helpless children, who are in.
no wise responsible for conditions nor are,
they responsible for having been brought
into this world. 2
l SCHOOL CHILDREN AND BICYCLES
With the opening of the city schools,
many of the children use the bicyele as a
imode of transportation to and from their
thomes to school. Bicycle riding is a whole
isome exercise for the body and a conveni
ience and saving for the parents of the
{children, but it is a hazardous practice,
\unless extreme care is observed by the
'children.
The children who ride bicyeles to school
are usually of the tender age, and too of
ten they are not mindful of the danger
from automobiles. Besides the average
child »f school age has its mind absorbed
in the desire to reach school at a certain
time in order to be present when the roll
is called. Ttinking only of reaching the
school, little thought is given to approach
ing automobiles or cars emerging from
side streets, consequently the danger of
meeting with an accident which might re
sult seriously and possibly in death to
which the child is exposed is great. Par
ents should take heed and impress upon
the minds of their children the importance
of being alert to danger while riding to
and from school on bicycles.
Riding in the streets, children expose
themselves to danger of the most serious
type. Regardless of the carefulness of au
tomobile drivers, a set of worn brakes or
a defect of any kind can throw the car
from under control of the driver causing
a crash with the bicycle that would have
to be accepted as an “unavoidable acci
dent”, but it is then too late to save the
child’s life.
If the city officials cannot legalize and
control bicycle traffic on the sidewalks,
then we believe that an ordinance should
be enacted prohibiting any one from rid
ing a bicycle in the streets. Prior to the
days of the automobile, the danger of ac
cidents from riding in the streets was of
little importance, but in these days of ad
vancement in transportation, it is highly
necessary that children should be pro
hibited from riding in the streets. ,
_Some official action should be taken for
the control of present conditions and the
streets made safe for the children who
ride bicycles to and from school. "
| A CHALLENGE TO CIVILIZATION
‘ The growth of organized crime has be
icome of such grave importance for the
|safety of society and morals of the people
|of this nation it is a challenge to civiliza
‘ltion. Racketeering is no longer a system of
| pirating, but it has grown to be a business,
lorganized and systematized under the di.
srection of and on the advice of some of the
best legal -tzlent available in this couniry.
IThe organizers of the crime industry are
not criminals of the mediocre type, but
]they are men of alertness, shrewd and re
(sourceful. These leaders in the racketeer
{ing game have made a study of their pur
\suit and guarded in every way possible a
'defense of any attempt for convietion by
tthe legally constituted courts of law en
forcement. The revenues realized by this
crime organization runs into millions and
estimated on good authority as represent
ing incomes of a billion or more annually.
'The authorities at Washington have be
come alarmed over the situation, judging
from the remarks and activities of Attor-
Iney General Cummings in an effort to
suppress the progress of kidnaping, as
!well as other forms of renumerative crime.
A real war is on between the law abid
|ing element and those of organized crime.‘
It is a fight to the finish for the survival
of the fittest. It is a serious and perplex-1
ing problem that is causing the authori
ties much concern. The many Joopholes
in the scheme of organization of the courts
of this country opens a way for gross
abuse of the law.

A Little of Everything,
Not Much of Anything
By HUGH ROWE
The Clarke coumty commiss
| iomers are to be commended on
. their work of havieg the
. grounds for the airport graded
. and made ready for the finish
| ing touches which is to be done
. by the city. s
of 35 to 40 acres, and S3id so be,
ome of the best in the soutbern
states. A large force of Workmen
several tractors and other imple
ments for grad og and rncm‘
are now busily engaged in eoms
pletion of the field. The lateral
road lezding to the old field will be
closed and a 2 new road Loy en
trance to the airpert will be built
In fact, when completed. ihe fieid
=il be as modern 25 any .o be
found in the country. There he
iwo run-ways and mfi a
number of pianes. A there
are a hail-dozen ¥ sta
tioned on the field, which fs about
ine capacity of the present hanz
er=. but additions will be made and
quariers for twemiy-five or more
machines will be installed.
The building of this airport
by the county commissioners is
~ not only a strohe of enterprise
on their part, but & will fill
ome of Athens’ greatest needs.
For many years, airports have
been talked and planned, but ob- |
siacies of one Kkind or agother,
arose which resulted in the defeat
of the completion of the proposed
airport, Now that the work is weil
upderway, it is only a matter of a
short time until the new field will
be completed and thig eity placed
on themapafomctdfluwfih.g
modern equiped alport ang all the |
accessories (har go along with such |
2 plant. Too much praise can ““'¥
be accorded the country com
missioners in their effortg to keeog
thig city and county abreast of
the times, and ai the same time
render a service to the tax payvers
of potential benefit.
The policy of the present
board of county commissioners
has always been progrescive
and constructive, Their services
to the people have been of the
highest standard of excellency.
In determining on the building
of an airport, these genilemen
struck a papular chord of public
sentiment. It is realized that air
traffic will soon become the pre
vailing mode of travel and the
town or city that is backward in
providfng accommodations for this
new transportation will suffer ma
terial losses in many ways, The
automobile has replaced the rail
roads, in a great measure, and in
a few years, the airplane is bound
to replace the automobile. With
improved equipmert and sen'tce‘air
routes will traverse the pation in
all directions, stopping, unloading
and loading freight and passengers
with all ease, comfort and safety.
While we are on the line of
commendation for the services
of the county commissioners,
we are reminded of the splendid
work that is being done by the
Chamber of Commerce.
Secretary Wier and President
Gunn are a team of workers who
are producing resulis for the up
building of Athens. These men are
enterprising, progressive and de
termined ic get resuits. Charged
with dynamic energy and re
sourcefulness, they are ever on
the alert to keep a step ahead of
the fast growing progress of the
communty paving the way for a
pregram of building and recupera
ting that which has already been
accomplished for a greaier and
beiter Athens. There are hundreds
of matiers that arise in the work
of a Chamber of Commerce office
that are never exposed to the pub
lic eye, but are of importance o
the community and requires work
that is not brought to light, but
requires much thought, study and
time to carry on, for which the
president and secretary are never
given credit. 1
Men and women who give
freely of their time and re
sources for the advancement of
community affairs, seldom ever
receive credit for their servicss,
~ regardiess of the sacrifices they
may make.
' But someone has to bear the
‘brunt of carrging on community
enterprises, and usually those who
aengage in such work are the citi
zens who pug service above self, A
‘community is, indeed, fortunate in
‘having such citizens, Without the
self-sacrificing citizens, the town
or city would be an undesirable
place in which to live. In this re-
Spect, however, Athens can boast
of as fine a citizenship as there is
in any community in the counfry
When called upon for patriotic ser
vice, these people have never failed
to respond, and do their whole
duty, without stint or reservation.

~ Agents in Paris
Get New Ruling
By MORRIS GILBERT
(NEA Service Writer.)
PARIS.—The new American
government office building, into
which the embassy staff, the con
sulate, and all other government
units quartered in Paris are just
now moving, is a memorial to the
days when francs were fifty to the
dollar.
It was the financial acumen of
the late Ambassador Mpyron T.
Herrick which started it, and
made possible the extremely gra
cious edifice which stands on the
corner of what is one of the most
beautiful squares in the Wworld—
the Place de la Concorde. |
A reserve fund, available at the
late ambassador’s discretion, was
rather brilliantly handled, in those
piping times of French inflation.
The result was the nest-egg which
just now has been hatched into
the embassy building. At that, the
cost was very moderate, consider
ing the appearance, the position, |
and the utility of the building. It
cost $1,297,000. |
An Historic Site '
History clusters thick about the
site where the American eagle
now displays its wings. From the
old mansicn which it supplants—
the Hotel de La Reyniere—men
watched the tumbrils wheeling
across the Place bearing Louis
XVI of France and the queen.

I.ITTLE STORIES FROM REAL LIFE
SHE came in one Saturday morning and smiled roguishly
at the girl in the teller’s window. -
“I’m going to open a Savings Account, but don’t you tell
my husband,” she said. “You see I am able to save something out of
my household allowance every week and I want to surprise him.”
Regularly each Saturday she came and it was surprising
how the account grew.
One day there was an accident—her husband was hit by
an automobile. For months he lay helpless.
Again the wife appeared at the teller’s window. “You can
never know,” she said, “what this savings account means. My hus
band is nearly well, but it has taken almost all our money and this
little account will pay the insurance premium over which he has
been worrying.”
' Once again, a Savings Account had justified itself.
There is no substitute for systematic saving.

as French history about the time
of the two revolutions—American
and French—lived. Visible from

the obelisk which Napoleon
brought back from his conquests
in Egypt, and, in the background,
the Chamber of Deputies, scene
of more recently political history.
The French authorities, quite
properiy, required the American
architects to fit their building into
the general architectural plan of
the Place de la Concorde. It stands
¥n a line with the principal build
ing which flanks the northern side,
the Hotel de Crillon and the Min- |
fistry of Marine. Its height is
identical—although the Americans
have managed to build an addi
tional story, carefully concealed
behind the ornamental balustrade
around the top of the ediffice.
American in Spirit
The architectural plan is virtu
ally identical with the res: of the |
buildings on the north side of the
Place. And yet, by a happy inven
tion, it remains something expuc-r
itly American—quite apart iromi
the plumbing.
This has been possible, no
doubt, because of the wvirtual sim
ilarity between American coionial |
architecture of the 17th and 18th
century, and the French style
from which it, to some degree, de
veloped. 3
