LONDON, Sept. 2s.-"I'm only q
girl Of twenty . said Imogene VIII
son. dancing Broadway beauty, in
explaining in ar exclusive inter
view today with International News
Service how badly she was mis-
understood.
Frank Tinney, the comedian, who
lmogene said Knocked me cold' in
New York, when his admiration for
her reached its peak, arranged the
Interview in the Ritz Carlton Hotel,
where she Is staying on her way

asked Imogene. Naturally when

Not In Good HumOr.
The dancer was not in the best
Of humor. At first she refused to
talk, but at last yielded 20 Tinney's
opportunities.
"Conne on. Bubbles, smile" said
Frank, but Imogene refused to
smile.
Then tell your story" suggested
Tinney.
II haven't any story to telI,' said
Imogene,. and began to tell It:
I'm simply going to Italy to
make pictures. It's my first visit
to London, and I like 1t immensely,
but / cannot stay long. I'm leaving
probably Wednesday or Thursday
for Italy.
Not Telling Too Much.
"I'm not telling the newspapers
who I'm working for or under
what name I have contracted.
Once before the newspapers con.
cocted wild stories and lost by It.
Never again"
Tinney. in one Of those asides
that make his vaudeville skits what
they are, observed that the dancer
was mighty smart" and had "a
good head on her shoulders"
Imogene went on with her story:
Frank didn't know / was com.
ing. Why should he? Why all
this interest in us? The English
does as long as he makes them
laugh.
"They don't care il he has six
wives or eight other women. Neither
do the Americans. It's all the news

admiringly and In another aside
said:
%"Ain't she beautifuI?"
Remains Naughty
Despite his pleading that she
smile a little, Imogene remained
naughty. She talked for twenty
minutes on the subject Of why the
newspapers should bother her, re.
marking:

the knowledge that any job is I'M
certain and insecure, subject to the
fluctuations of economic change
which are responsible for much Of
our present Industrial unrest. =
This situation, the report will
show. has been aggravated by the
fact that the unslkilled worker who
Has sought employment through
certain types OF labor agencies In
many cases has been subjected to
such abuses as: Paying fee and
then failing to get q job; being
sent to distant points where no
work or where unsati sfactorya work
exists, but when he could not re.
turn because Of the expense in.
volved; being employed through
COLLISION between the agent and
employer and after a few days
work being discharged to make
way for a new workman, while the
agent and the employer divided
the fee.
The report OF the Russell sage
Foundation says:
"One conclusion drawn from such
findings has been that we must
have public bureaus to take the
place Of the private fee-cnapging
agencies That is, in so Tar as
people are informed on the ques-
ton and have expressed their sen.
timents, most Of them appeared
convinced that we should have pub
lie employment bureaus because Of
the abuses of some fee-charging
agencies quite regardless Of other
onsiderations In addition, how
ever, the feeling has been growing
that this service in the nature of
the case should be free and that
the very fact of fee.charging car
ries with It a dangerous temptation
to abuse and fraud
Need Agencies Now.
ut is obvious Of. course, that If
the public exchanges could by
legislation or court action secure
exclusive sway in the whole field,
the fee-charging agencies, with the
abuses attributed to them. would be
bound to disappear. And such q
plan, aimed to abolish these
agencies, particularly those dealing
with Iunskilled. semi-skilIed, casual,
and other non-professional workers,
! is what some advocates 81 the pub.
lie exchanges would adopt. There
"
whether action Of that kind, II, II
were possible, would be wise. 'rlie
mere abolition OF a thing does not
always help the situation. That Is
only negative. It is more important
to build up a good constructive
competing organization. The ahoIl.
ton alone Of the private Tee 4charg.
ing agencies would not necessarily
bring about a system OF public EN-.
ployment bureaus nor an efficient
system. With all their abuses The
private agencies are performing a
function needed in the absence Of
an adequate public system; they
should not be abolished until some.
thing Is provided to take their
place.
ut would seem far more practical
to set to work on q positive pro
gram. Of improving the public bu-
reaus. for IL we get good public
service, the free-charging agencies
and their abuses will then become
q minor question. The private
agency will be eliminated, because
II will be useless; or we shall learn
how TO improve It through expert
ence gained in the public bureaus"

Mr.. Oliver Votaw of Cedar Ia,
keeps a large flock of fine wool
sheep, In the spring of 1922 he
sheared 1900 pounds of wool from
7S0 head of sheep, 800 of which
were May lambs. and sold this wool
at As cents pound. In 1928 his
clip was S595 pounds from 955
head. Out of this bunch he fed 800
head for the spring market. All of
these sheep were raised, pastured
and fed on his 253 acre farm and
he is able to raise more than
enough feed for them, for ! noticed
a large hay rick left over at harvest
time last summer
Iowa had a big corn crop which
is now practically all IN the crib.
The quality, roweYer, was rot Of
the best on account of an early
freeze in the northern part and a
high wind in the southwest part OF
the state, which did serious dam
age to the crop. The weather was
fine for sowing fall wheat and the
acreage is fully as large as last
year. The farmers here are hard
hit on account of the prevailing low
prices for farm products, especially
for hogs, and the high prices for ev-
erything they have to buy.
