A Thought For The Day * peace | leave with you, my peace | give unto you; not as the world giveth, give | unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.—St. John 14:27. Five great enemies to peace inhabit with us: viz., avarice, ambition, envy, anger and pride. If those enemies were ‘o be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace.—Petrarch. T W P Ty g T o ! » 24 2 : | CATTON’S COMMENT J e @Y BRUGCE CATTON memrre—— They. put society on trial in the high school build ing at Orange, N. J., the other day, accusing it of failing ‘to give youth a square deal, and after a great deal of talk they found it guilty as charged. “They” were some 3500 adults, drawn to the build ing by agencies of the Welfare Federation and civic socleta'u; and this odd trial took place because a number of groups of young people had recently draw""‘}l,zp a series of charges against society. sm%&y_ said the youngsters, fails youth because it makés it hard for yvouth to get jobs, makes proper marriage difficult, fails to provide institutions tor the mrthgng of friendship, offers many moral pitfalls in thshape of erotic literature, gambling joints, and gin mills and fails to teach youth how to use its lelSure time to best advantage. Thigewas the indictment that drew the grown folks of Orange into their high school auditorium for a general discussion; and it would be a highly useful thing«if the same sort of trial could be held in many other @ities, because it helps to open our eyes to the responibility which we owe to the young people who will be he adultg of tomorrow. It #Bm't so very much that these Jersey youngsters are asking, when you stop to think about jt. Just ach nee to earn a living, a chance to found a home withéut too many of those delays and trials that take the Héart out of a person, a chance to grow up to .d t manhood and womanhood, and a fairly even“ Break in the age-old struggle for ordinary hum an f",%u ’:aff; Jdsn't much—it’s about the minimum that could be asked. . And yet youth seems to feel—if this case can be s a fair example—that society is failing to hl‘t #de even that minimum. And if that is true, then v‘w.‘%;tamng youth about as miserably as any so ohmuldqtafl. : i © Wigare rather fhndf of talking about the follies and the wildness of our younger generation. Grown peopl§ ‘have been doing that since the days of Job, and they will progably keep it up to endless time. vB:: ve meed to realize that youth iy very often mor: "’v» ned against than sinning. The indictment returned by these.young people in New Jersey is a measure of the imperfections of mod emg;m. Modern society is what we, the older genepation, have made . it. Until we can meet this criticism, and make our so ciety“the ‘kind of place in which youth gets the bnug”,fl is looking for, we have small reason to talk übofi}%;outh’s own shortecomings.- S ‘ e, .y Bl PO et LSS SR Ne B S L oung man who works ‘hi§ way through col lege 48 apt to be a much better student than the one ‘whose parents pay his way. Thig is the con &fialgn to be drawn from a survey just completed at the University of Southern California by Dr. o Th e e e i caldtit. The survey compared.the scholastic records of stu dents participating in the federal government’s pro gri_.m of part-time jobs for college undergraduates with those whose vxpenses were being met by their parents, and it found that the former group ranked higher in classroom marks, displayed a greater ear nestnesg of purpose and, in genéral, seemed to be getting more out of college life, " This isn’t hard tolunderstand. The lad whose col lege expenses are paid for him can easily fall inté the notion that collége is: just a pleasant and di /érting lark. The one who is earning his way by E e sweat of his brow knows what he is in college r, and deés his best to make it worth the effort it is costing him. Yoti may have seer{ stories recently quoting a mem ber of the Bronx county (N.Y.) grand jury of May, 1982, in which it was claimed that, when Dr. John ¥F. Condon appeared before that body, he said that he would be unable to identify the man to whom he had paid the Lindbergh kidnaping ransom money. In case you did, ané@ wondered how Dr. Condon managed to make a definite identification of Bruno Hauptmann in court, you should be advised that a correction has been made. The official minuteg of that grand jury were made public the other day, and thqy refute this assertion completely. They show that when Dr. Condon was called, he not only said definitely that he could iden but gave a. detailed description of the man which tify the ransom recipient if he ever saw him again, fits Hauptmann to a T. It ig to be hoped that the correction will speedily overtake the original false report. The college graduate of tradition is supposed t‘o{ be a know-it-all young man who leaves the campus( for the outside world full of confidence that people re just going to fall all over themselves to give him obg and get the benefit of his ‘wisdom and energy. | ¢ _The college graduate of real life in the year 1935 " 48 not_a bit like that.

GROVER BERGDOL SEEKS PARDON The wife of Grover Bergdol is in this country seeking a pardon for her way ward husband—draft-dodger in the World war. Bergdol, while of German descent, born and reared in America, was a dis loyal citizen. He refused to be drafted and 'made his escape to Germany. There he remained throughout the war protected by his American citizenship. He has re turned to this country on several occas ions, but in various ways managed to es caye the federal officers. Now his wife is in the states for the purpose of securing clemency in order that he may return to his home in Pennsylvania, where his agedl mother resides. It is a case that may excite’ sympathy on the part of some people whol allow their emotions to control, but a trai-| tor to his country should never be forgiven' by loval citizens. This man was the beneficiary of Ameri can citizenship; his duty was to respond to the call of his country; dodging the draft and refusing to shoulder arms in the defense of his country was an act of vio lence that cannot be condoned or defended. He should be made to suffer the penalty for his disloyalty, and no efforts should be left unmade to cause his return to the United States. It is true that his wife and children are not responsible for his acts. Innocent par ties, though they be, his crime cannot be justified by emotions or sympathy. A de serter is one of the most dangerous types of criminals and should be so treated un der the law and in the courts of the coun try. AFTER THE HITCH-HIKERS The day of the hitch-hiker and the thumbing a ride artist is rapidly passing in this country. There have been so many crimes committed by hitch-hikers in recent vears, motorists are loathe to pick them up. The benefactors of these hitch-hikers often lose their lives as a toll for their kindness in giving a lift on the highways. | Recently, the Pennsylvania highway pa trol issued an order that anyone caughti thumbing a ride in that state would be jailed and fined. Captain Wilson C. Price, head of the state patrol, announced: “A} hitch-hiker and a panhandler are the same, except that the panhandler whines for a dime and the hitch-hiker wants a ride that is often worth a $lO bill.” ‘ 1f ‘all the states would adopt the Penn sylvania gystem, soon there would be few of these undesirable citizens touring the country, on foot, some in need, of course, but others out for crimes of all kinds, mur der and robbery. The criminal hitch-hiker is of just as pleasing appearance as is the deserving and law abiding hitch-hiker, but there is no way of distinguishing be tween the honest and dishonest, the crim inal and the law abiding citizen, conse quetly, the only way to treat these knights of the highway, is to leave them alone and let.them hike to their destination. A BACK-FIRE PROPOSITION The omnibus banking bill has caused congressmen to ~steer clear of the firing line when the bill was before the house for debate. However, a majojrity of the congressmen voted for the bill and now it is up to the members of the senate as to its final disposition. When this bill was be ing discussed, Congressman Brown en deavored to debate the pros and cons of the bill, and only eigtheen of the members remained in their seats. ’ The bill is one of the most important pieces of legislation that has been before the present gession of congress. The vote on the measure resulted in 271 voting for the bill and 110 against it, an overwhelm ing majority, but, nevertheless, the bill may strike a snag of opposition when it reaches the senate. ¢ The Associated Press has given out a concise analysis of the bill and its effects on the banking business and the interest of the people of the country. It says: “1, Make permanent the present de posit insurance, limited to a maximuni of $5,000 for each deposit. “9. Give the President outright power to remove the governor and vice-governor of the Federal Reserve Board. , “3 T.et the board instruct the twelve Federal Reserve banks as to whether they should buy or sell government obligations. “4. Allow the board to fix from time to time the reserve that member banks must maintain against deposits. ; “5 Direct the board to use its powers ‘to promote conditions conductive to business stability’ and work against ‘unstabilizing fluctuations in the general level of pro duction, trade, prices, and employment’.” The features of the omnibus banking bill. as shown in the foregoing, affects all commercial interests in the country as well as that of individuals. The senate’s concurrence is of little doubt, and after that body has passed upon the bill, it will be ready to go to the president for his sig nature making it a law. The largest open pit iron mine in the world is said to be that at Hibbing, Minn. The mine, 350 feet deep and 2 1-2 miles long, has an area of 1,070 acres. Number of teaching positions in this country was reduced from approximately 800,000 to 600,000 by the depression. ‘The birth rate in the United States has dropped from 24.2 per 1,000 of popula tion in 1920 to less than 17 per 1,000.

Wpriter) ATLANTA — (AP) — Bridal veiling formerly used only for draping the bride in its diaphos ous folds is being utilized this yvear for the entire wedding cos tume. Adapting itself readily -to the bouffant wedding gowns of 1935, this sheer veiling comes in silk or cotton from two to four years in width. Other poptilar materials are chiffon, Mousseline de Soie and cotton place. X The choice of colors in bridal adornment is limited, chalk white remaining the prime favorite, al though blush pink is quite proper. The palest of powder . . . an ice tone that reflects the blue of June skies . . . is to be used by brides in many stylish weddings this year. The bridal frock follows the lines of the figure, clings to the Kknees and then flares into extreme full ness at the hem. Sleeves .must be knuckle length and from there to to the elbows they are shirred closely to the arm. Above the el bow they are turned loose into a large puff. The skirt also may be shirred about the hips, falling into a train at the back. A practical bride-to-be has had her wedding gown constructed so it may be used later as an even ing dress. It is white alencon lace, touching the floor all around, with high neck front but no back and no sleeves. ; A bride in a backless dress would cause much lifting of lorgnettes, so in order to convert this dress into a modern wedding gown, there is a bolero coat of the same lace which fits snugly in back from the shoulders to the waist line where it converge into a train of from one to three yards in length. This train separates from the bolero in front and forms it self into a belt from which it rip ples softly toward the back. The bolero has large sleeves with the ‘armhole beginning at the waist line. ‘White satin strap sandals pre sent a problem in keeping the proverbial dime in the bride's shoe but the low hels which denote good taste this year will provide a better level on which the dime may repose. Veils are caught under a wreath of orange blossoms and fastened at the nape of the neck. They are arranged without the bandeaus formerly worn across the forehead. Colonial boquets are to be car ried by June brides of 1935. They consist of lilies of the valley edged with three ruffles of white maline, tied with white satin ribbon with lilies of the valley caught in the Kknots.

An able cast of sgeniors are in supporting roles, each well suited for his or h:r particular part. ' The Ingredients = If an ocean voyage, a hand some hero, a charming heroing, an explaining sister, two pairs of false teeth, and “the boy from home” fail to provoke laughter, then perhaps :a boatswain, or a foreign stewardess will be more to yvour liking. -If both fail, you should not delay to® have your sense of humor examined by a well known comedian.
