YOUNG STATES|N
 HELD CHIEF NEED.
Dr.. M. Cary Thomas Thinks Elder Men Chief Cause Of
 World Trouble


 PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-Men un- der 40 are better equipped to settle the worlds acute political and eco homie problenls than those over !60, according to pr. NJ Carey Thomas, president >ontritus of Bryn Mawr college.
 She expressed that opinion in re- counting the impressions she ob- td.ned durirs: her recent 16 months tour of Europe and the Orient.
 Miss Thomas is strongly in favor Of the United States joining the League of Nations as a result of what she saw and heard abroad. She believes this nation should stand with Great Britain in guaranteeing France from attack, and also that aid of the American people is ur- gently needed In the Near and Far East.
 Her statement, given out at her residence on the Bryn Mawr college grounds. follows:
 Elder statesmen are a great mis- take
 To Back Younger Generations.
 believe that if the men in con- trol of affairs in this country and abroad were under 40 instead of over 60, the world would not be in it's present condition, and as far as I am concerned, I am going to try to con- fine my activities to applauding and backing up of the younger genera ton.
 q believe in the present genera tion planning the things it has to put through.
 q have come. for my own part, to be absolutely sure that 1t is the duty and also to the profit of the United States to delay no longer but to use her great moral and financial power to the utmost to help to solve the many pressing problems that must be solved if the world. as we know it, is to go on. It seems to me our first duty to enter the League of Nations. to which 54 nations al- ready belong. including the Free State of Ireland and Abyssinia. which joined it this summer. And there is every reason to believe that as soon as Germany and Russia apply they will be admitted In the council and on all the committees a place for the United States is still kept vacant in the hope that we shall fill it. Difficulty Called Tribute.
 ''In Paris I saw a number of people who were on their way back from the annual meeting of the League of Nations held last September and Oc- tober at Geneva. They one and all told me that the Italian & Creek diff culty, which seemed to outsiders such blow to the League of Natins, was really a magnificent tribute to it's strength and power of public opinion organized With the league,Nto which even Mussolini found he must bow.
 q was in Constantinople in the summer of 1922, living in the villa I had rented on the Bosporus, when the British battleships steamed past my windows as a demonstration to the victorious Anatolian Turks they could not come back into Europe. If we had been there to stand by Great Britain. one of the greatest and most beautiful cities of the world could have been saved for civilization. Also, all our American schools and missions. to which the lives of Amer ican teachers and American dollars have been given for half a century could have carried on their beneficial educational work Now it will soon all come to an end" r

Nheaseu wire TO Ibc Age-Hcraio.)
 NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Beneath the rose lights and amid the vapors 0. perfumed punk, smoldering in South Sea Island censors, Gilda Gray, who learned South Sea Island dances in Milwaukee, will continue to twitch her epidermis for the after midnight trade at her husbands little upstairs cabaret just off Broadway.
 But for Jimmy Thompson and Paul Salvin, she wouldn't witch twitch if she were covered with caterpillars.
 The cabaret trust of New York has been riven by distrust and Gil- da's husband, Gil Boag, the third member of the triumvirate that cor nered the cabaret business and dollars, notwithstanding prohibition finds himself out like a hitter on a pop-fly to the box.
 However. Boag retains sole control of the rendezvous, that abovestairs room, all h''ng with silk. and half-lit by cone saA1m bulbs under rose and orchid sha.,o-. Gilda Gray is still his wife, unless something abrupt has happened quite lately, and the twitchng epidermis, which shivers and flutters to the rumpety- jump of the South Sea Islands, tom toms, is still the sole and personal property of Gilda Gray, to jiggle for whom she wishes.
 That most gifted hide. that talented pale pelt and all the ripping dimples in it, do not belong to the trust. Claimed "Double CrOss."
 Boag has filed suit in the New York supreme court asking that receiver be appointed for five of the most expensive after midnight haunts of merriment where the we'll to-do foregather to be well done. He complains that his partners, Jimmy Thompson and Paul Salvin, have been trying to pay him his share of the profits in cancelled postage stamps and rain-checks to last years ball games.
 Ordinarily the amount of money involved. large as it may be. would entitle the suit to a quick parag graph under the heading of business trou- bles But for Gil Boag to file an ac- tion against Thompson and Salvin meant the disruption of a combina- tion that took hold of the cabaret business in New York when all others were quitting because of prohibition and gave the town a style of night life that Harry ThaW never fancied in his widest dreams.
 Boag was an advertising solicitor for the theatrical page of a news paper.
 Salvin had had an interest in Rec tors. Thompson was a likeable boy along the street, who knew every

Every employe of the Cosby Flour and Grain company, of whom there are approximately 50, has made a fund, thus winning for this organiza- tion the distinction of being the first 100 per cent Chest club to be formed in Birmingham.
 Practically every large wholesale house and industrial plant in the dis trict is organizing or has already formed a club. Each is making the effort to win a place on the honor roll, which belongs to those organiza- tions who tender a donation from each of their workers.
