G. 0. P. RESORTS TO
USE OF THE BIBLE
WASHINGTON, June 3 (TP)—The
Republican National Committee went
back to the Bible today to prove that
the New Deal's economics is al!
wrong. The committee declared that
the Roosevelt plan embodies a policy
of scarcity amidst plenty.
The committee turned to the ex
ample of Joseph, the Biblical figure
in old Egypt. They asked what would
have happened to Egypt if Joseph
would have destroyed the surplus dur
ing the seven fat years. Instead of do
ing as the New Deal did, the commit
tee said, Joseph stored the surplus
crops for the seven Jean years.
Democrats answering the new at
tack. however, asked whether the Re
publicans would follow the Bible
story through in their party flatform.
They wanted to know whether the
party was ready to advocate a policy
whereby the government would buy
up all the surplus crops grown to be
•tored in graneries.

ON CRANE BANDITS
NEW YORK, June 3 (TP)—Police
throughout New York state started

The drive followed the state court
of appeals decision that the machines
are gambling dovio's. The Albany
court was unanimous in the ruling
that rpell.d the dratli-knell of the
amusement apparatus. Players of the
“c'iJger cranes” machines attempted
to lift prizes by means of a claw de
vice somewhat similar to a miniature
steamshovel.
The court of appeals ruling con
cerned a suit brought by five manu
facturing companies who sought to
enjoin New York City Police Com
missioner Valentine from seizing the
machines. With the verdict, Commis
sioner Valentine ordered his men to
grab the machines and arrest the pro
prleotrs of stores in which they still
operated.

IS NEARER CHAIR
CHARLESTOWN. Mass., June 3

ed by a negro follower of Father Di
vine, the Harlem evangelist. “Con
tinually Thank You Father” was
arrested on charges of peddling fruit
without a license and was fined $1 in
Washington Heights Court.
“I’ll pay my last dollar for Father
Divine,” announced “Continually
Thank You Father”, “but this here
money won’t do you no good, Judge.”
As he left the courtromo, the ped
dler added:
"Thank You Father.”
FINANCIAL STANDING
ALARMING TO HOLLAND
AMSTERDAM, June 3 (TP)Th? re
newed alarm over Holand’s financial
position was heightened today when
the Bank of Netherlands boosted its
discount rate one per cent to four and
one-half per cent.
The jump in the bank rate followed
weakness of the Netherlands gold
backed currency on foreign markets.
A few days ago the rate wm raised
one per cent in an effort to check a
possible flight of gold from Queen
Wilhelmina’s kingdom.
No women consuls for Great Brit
ain is the verdict of the government.
Prominent women of the realm, in
cluding American-born Lady Astor,
M. P., are voicing their protests.

SCENE OF FIRE
PORTLAND, Me., June 3 (TP)—
Residents of the summer resort,
Peak’s Island, today are contemplat
ing the ruins of 17 buildings and dam
age to scores of others by a fierce fire.
The blaze caused an estimated dam
age of $75,000.
Every person on the island and all
available fire-fighting apparatus were
called into play when the flames
broke out last night. Low water pres

most popular summer resorts on the

The fire was believed to have started
in this hotel.

FROWNING BROW IS NOT LOVELY
WRINKLES BETWEEN THE EYEBROWS SHOULD BE
OBLITERATED FOR BEAUTY’S SAKE.
By GLADYS GLAD
"America’s Most Ftmous Beauty”
A WELL-KNOWN makeup expert,
Grace Donahue, who works her magic
on the faces of some of our greatest
stage and social lights, asserts that
frown lines between the eyebrows are
among the greatest of all detriments
to facial liveliness. Frown lines, Miss
Donahue says, give the face an angry,
discontented expression that is any
thing but attractive. And they rob
the facial expression completely of its
charm and sweetness.
I certainly share this makeup ex
pert’s opinion in this matter. For
years immemorial, poets have raved
of the loveliness of a smooth, marble
like brow, and today, a brow of this
description is just as Important as
ever. For what with our new off
the-face hats ,our tricky, revealing
evening hats, and the threat of ap
proaching hatless summer days, a
smooth, flawless brow becomes most
important. You can’t look attractive
in a coiffure that sweeps back off
your forehead, or an off-the-face hat,
if your brow is corrugated with frown
lines. ,
There’s a new wrinkle to end all
frown wrinkes now, however, and a
good many of the damsels out in
Hollywood are employing it. It certain
ly is simplicity itself. Before retiring
at night, you cut out a triangular
piece of ordinary brown wrapping
paper, moisten it with your tongue,,
and stick it between your corrugated
brows. The papqr won’t let you frown,
and this is an excellent way Os break
ing you of this disastrous mannerism.
For it is this habit of frowning, of
course, that tends to cause frown lines
betwen the brows.
Cosmetics Abo Help 1
There are several cosmeticians that
are putting out preparations for just
this purpose. They are usually in
pomade form, and when spread over
the frown-line area, dry quickly and
revent you from distorting your face
in any harmful manner. They are
not ,or course, miraculous cure-alls.
But they certainly are a great help.
The white of an egg also has often
been advised for this purpose. If you
have acquired the habit of frowning,
after you cleanse your face at night
don’t taint other foods _ _ _ because, they are
quickly carried away through the air-condition
ing chamber. In this way foods retain all their
natural nourishment and there is no loss through
spoilage. Only ICE can give this kind of refrig
eration.
PAGE THREE
apply the stiffly beaten white of ar,
egg to your brow. Permit the egg
white to dry thoroughly and then
retire. The egg white will tone up your
skin and prevent you from uncon
sciously practicing the detrimental
habit of frowning. After any such
treatment, however, it is wise to mas
sage the wrinkled area lightly with a
good rich cream, in order to nourish
the tissues and keep the skin smooth
and supple.
