MOTHERS URGE
AID BILL

The local welfare machine on
charity trust and not the poor
people of the city. is the real OPP
ponent Of the bill "of the Child Wei
fare Committee of America for
mothers pensions in the District,
Mrs. &. Fuller Winters charged last
night in an address to a group of
District mothers at a meeting at
the Playhouse. 1914 N St. N. W.
The meeting indorsd the bill for
separate, volunteer board to adj
minister the pensions.
Harry D. Murray, local attorney
and other speakers at the meeting
declared that some of the leaders
of organized charity were urging
the bill to place the mothers pen
sions under the Public Welfare
Board, merely to broa1en their
own power, regardless of the in
terests of the mothers VINO might
benefit by such legislation.
Placing the pensions under the
| Public Welfare Board, Mrs. Winters
declared, would be an act of cruelty,
rather than of charity, for, with
pensions due them and available,
mothers who needed the money
most would hide themselves rather
than appear before a board identi-
| fled with prison control to ask for
aid.

ARGENTINA'S CEREAL
CROPS IN GOOD SHAPE
Wheat Harvesting Is Intensified in
North and Has Started in
the South.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BUENOS AIRES. December 16.--
The present general condition of the
cerealsown area of Argentina was de-
clared good in a report made public
today by the ministry Of agriculture.
The report says that the period be-
tween November Is and December 15
was marked by partial intensive rains
and other meteorological phenomena
that caused local damage in the cereal
belt without greatly affecting 1t. Rains
in the Pampas and the Southwest sec
tions of the Province of BuenOs Aires
mitigated the effects of frosts, tiliage
reacted favorably and the present
condition may be considered good.
The ministry reported that wheat
harvesting has been intensified in the
Northern belt and has started in the
Southern. The harvesting was made
difficult in some places by partial rains
and hail but the damage was stated
to be more in quality than quantity.
Harvesting of linseed suffered the
samo handicaps as wheat. The linseed
has been attacked by 'isoca," but dam
age from this plague will be of inn
portance only If It's invasion should
spread.
The condition of corn was reported
good, rains having been beneficial.
Great activity is being shown in the
Chaco and a second crop Is being
sown. The condition of oats, barley,
rye and canary seed also was reported
good.
The general favorable conditions
seem to be reflected in the market,
which has been virtually inactive and
tending toward lower prices.

NEW YORK, December 16.--The
demonstration in the oil shares in the
Curb Market today left the impress
sion that interests heretofore unwill-
ing to follow prices up were becoming
actively committed to the long side of
the standard issues.
One of the chief incidents was the
manner in which Humble Oil was
taken at advancing prices. Accom-
panying the rise was the rumor that
Standard Oil of New Jersey would Of
fer an exchange of its stock for
Humble in the ratio of two New Jer-
sey shares for each of Humble OIL.
This report appeared TO originate In
speculative quarters but it served to
increase participation on the buying
side of Humble Oil.
Standard Oil of Indiana was bid up
to new high for the move at the
same time that substantial advances
were taking place on the Stock In
change in Pan-American issues.
Tropical oils resumed their upward
tendency under leadership of Amer
ican Maracaibo and Carib Syndicate.

Selling came into the market Tor
Central Aguirre Sugar following pup
lication of the earnings for the year
ended July 81 last. which equaled
$500 share on the 10000 shares
outstanding. This compared with
$9.72 a share on the $50, 900 shares
outstanding in the previous year.
These, however. were considered IN
most quarters satisfactory, consider
ing that many producing companies
operated at a deficit during the per1od.
Victor Talking Machine had an
other run up, advancing almost
points at one time, but still was some
distance from the high established
yesterday. In view of the current
high selling prices it Is to be expected
that the fluctuations from now on VIII

Maistline Restored

Jeanne Lanvin has decided to re-
store the waistline, at least for after
noon and evening dress. The models
shown at this house are long, wide
and almost high wasted.
Anna, formerly the Madison
Madeleine and Madeleine), who last
year created the womens' tuxedo, Is
showing one this year. exquisitely
tailored. It consists Of plated gold
lace with diamond buttons.
Molyneux IS showing hats char
acterized by simplicity. For morning
wear he recommends clothing in
tweeds. kashas. wooden marocain
and serge. His afternoon frocks run
to georgette and he is using much
hyacinth blue.
Poiret is showing dresses that are
longer. He avoids the waistline
problem by swathing bust, waist and
hips in a glove-like sheath. Black
and royal blue are his favorite
colors.
The conservative house OF Red
fern as usual adopts the English
taste for simplicity to the French
mode. Two Of its outstanding types
OF dresses for spring are the straight
silhouette with no prominent
sleeves, and an elaborate model with
fluffy and elaborate sleeve effects.

Perhaps you can Jolt that nasty
habit of jealousy out of him by tell

must have an inferiority complex
to think that he can't hold your af-

mind against himself, which is
something he doesn't realize. Don't

your home life peaceful and sweet.

And especially does a wife resent
aprong strings attached to her hus-
band. Somehow they make him seem
less manly, less able to take care Of
himself. The devotion of a son to
his mother is a beautiful thing to
see. But no mother should handi-
cap her boy in his married life by
demanding his attention when it
cheats his wife. Every family is a
single unit, though it may be joined
to other units to make grand
whole. The head of every family
owes his best to it first. He should
not undertake to support a family
unless he intends to do this.
Parents who cannot support them
selves, must be taken care Of, of
course-but not at the expense Of the
progress of the new family.

"Ah, good evening. Mr.. Horton, .
she smiled, as she took the hat out

Iessness turned It over, dropping the
bill on the floor.
You would have lost your supper
money, Mr.. Horton. IL had not been

and she handed him back the twen-
ty-dollar bill.
The man bit his lip in anger and
quickly turned away.
III be reported for that all right.
all right" said Mamie.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, but didn't
know what to do about 1t. You see,
1 never knew a man would hand you
money unblushingly thinking you
would accept and never knew a
man would make love to you the
moment he saw you thinking you
would consider 1t a compliment"
"Of course you didn't, child.

Stems is at the bottom OF this. You
see Horton and Storms are pals and
nothing in the way of an attractive
girl gets by them. Tell me all about
it when you get time and III be with
you forty ways"
felt the tears come into my eyes.
II haven't a place to stay tonight.
I am afraid to go back to the hotel"
I began.
$50, that's what they're up to, is
it?" Mamie whispered almost to her
self. "Of course Stems got it out Of
you. But We'll worry them a little.
You'll come right home with me. My
little sister is out of town and you
can have her bed"
Before the evening was over was
ready to drop with fatigue and the
music became only bunch of nerve
racking soundse. I began to under
stand what Mamie meant by "corns."
Although I had none, my feet be-
came Jumps of leaden pain. In the
pocket of the apron they had given
me there was jingle of coins.
went over to Mamie and whispered.
do you really want me to come
home with you tonight? I think I
have enough tips to pay for a room
in cheap hotel"
I was so tired felt as though I
couldn't stand the presence of
strangers around me-even so kind
ly one as Mamie.
my dear, save your money. You'll
need it. You'll have to find a place
to live tomorrow and have your
trunks brought from the hotel.
They'll charge for the room whether
you use it or not"
ooh, can't go back there" said
hurriedly, "for some of these awful
men would find me, I'm sure"
