DE-PUFFlNG PUFFED SHOULDERS Here Are Some Exercises to Beautiy the Upper Arm

Editors NOte-1O take the
 bulk from bulky arms and
 shoulders Is the object Of the
 exercises described by Marjor-
 ie Dork, health and beauty eN-
 pert, in this fifth article of her
 exclusive Herald series.
 BY MARJORIE DORk
 Health and Beauty Expert
 For NEA Service
 Nothing impairs a woman'S fem ininity more than over-stuffed shoulders and over-large arms.
 Heavy shoulders are quite un- pardonablc, too, since reducing them is simple matter of proper exercise. Reducing the upper arm is little difficult and to large extent must come with the general
 Here is an exercise 10 take the puff out of puffy shoulders:
 Criss-cross
 Stand erect, knees together, arms extended to the sides. Now cross them in front of you with a NlSol obS SNi HIS, eiiC iHS SA" "i i'i above. Swing them back, then in front again, the left uppcrmost this time. Repeat, alternating hard and fast.
 Another motion beneficial to the shoulders is to swing the arms up and down toward the front from the same position taken :n the preceding exercise.
 Good for both arms and shoul- ders. as well as the waistline and trunk, is this one:
 Starting as above and keeping the arms out stiff to the sides. bend the right arm downward un- til the hand is below the knees, which are kept rigid. Then up, and down on the left side, like q : walking beam.
 These exercises, done often and vigorously, will not only reduce the arms and shoulders. but they will tighten up the muscles of the bust. I do not advise any woman to try to reduce her bust, except by general body reduction. EN- nert massage Is helpful. but it , must be expert.
 The kellogg Diet I am going to tell you today ol the Kellogg diet. which many Wo- men prefer above all others:
 For breakfast, choice of fruit orange juice. grape fruit apples or stewed fruit--one cup Of col fee or tea without cream or sugar, and a slice of whole wheat toast'
 For luncheon, vegetable or any thin soup. but no purees: tomato' lettuca or vegetable salad. or choice of green Negetaoles "lth lemon juice and mineral oil in the place of regular salad dresslhs' and one glass of buttermllk or any fluid. No bread nor toast of any kind.
 For dinner. one small helping of beans, macaroni, cheese or any meatless food. two vegetables cooked or raw. any green salad and half slice of whole wheat bread.
 This is a diet upon which you can live indefinitely have a wide choice of food, and still reduce steadily. And it cannot possloly harm you in any way because IL affords all the food values you actually require.
 I advise you to try for a week each of the diets l have prescribed in these articles. By watching your weight you can quickly as- certain which is most helpful. Then follow that one carefully un- til. encouraged by regular, deter mined exercise, your scales tell the desired tale.

ROBERTS REMOVAL
ROW FLARES ANEW
Storm Brewing in Federation
Over Utilities Committee
Breaks at Meeting.

The storm that has been brewing in
the ranks of organized citizenship over
the removal of william A. Roberts as
vice chairman of the public utilities
committee of the Federation of Citi-
zens' Associations broke at a meeting
of that organization last night in the
District Building.
The outburst centered around news
paper editorial criticizing Dr. George
c.. Havenner, newly elected president,
for ousting Roberts, who, with William
Nick Clayton, represented the fedora
ton in the important public utility bat
ties Of the last year. The federation's S
attention was called to the editorial
by Maj. Clayton e. Enig, Roberts pre-
decessor as vice chairman of the utili-
ties committee.
In the midst of the heated arguments,
Grover w. Ayres sought to have Roberts
restored to the committee. but his mo-
ton was ruled out of order by PreSi-
dent Havenner. In doing so he cited
his authority to appoint the committees
Of the federation.
Emig Attacks Editorials.
Mai. Emig charged that the editorial
attacking Havenner was written either
in ignorance of fact or insincerity to
organized citizenship of the District"
Both Clayton and Roberts made at
temptS to check Emig'S speech, and
when Havenner overruled their points
of order, Roberts leaped to the floor and
shouted: II absolutely see on necessity
for the remarks" Clayton subsequently
demanded that Emig withdraw state
ment that Dr. Milo r. Maltbie, New
York valuation expert, who is making
a study of the transit merger plan for
the Senate District committee. 'iS
hostile to public utilities
When Emig finished, Havenner re-
linquiShed the chair and made an i'm
paSSioned and emphatic denial of accu-
Sations against him in the editorial. II
have been accused of placing a pro-
merger group on the public utilities
committee" he declared. THAT is an
absolute falSehood, made out of the
whole cloth. Moreover. did not confer
with any of the delegates I appointed
on the committee as to their merger
views. Every bit of this nasty publicity
has been hatched in one place and
know the place"
Clayton Takes Floor.
Clayton then took the floor and
praised highly the Washington newspa-
pers, as we'll as Roberts and his ability

tinent of South America He had been
brought from his goodwill ship, the
oattleship Maryland, by the U. S. S.

dorean cruiser.
The welcome to the President-elect

Mr.. Hoover emphasized the esteem and
goodwill of the United States toward
its sister republics of the Western
Hemisphere and said that It's democracy
is the guarantee of its good will and
that it cannot be imperialiStic He
hoped that his tour would strengthen
the mutual respect and esteem of equals
engaged in a common struggle to build
up human welfare.
The President-elect spoke hopefully
of the world prosperity which he be-
lieves Is in prospect.
Expresses Cordial Friendship.
President Ayora in his welcoming ad-
dress expressed cordial friendship for
the United States and for the man who
Is soon to become its executive head.
Members of the cabinet individually
gave similar assurances Of their esteem
for their Northern neighbor.
A swarm of motor boats met the
Cleveland miles off shore and gave Mr..
Hoover spontaneous escort on his ap-
proach to Ecuador. AS the cruiser en-
tered the harbor the sirens of all ships

him we're taken by launch to the dock,
where other cabinet members warmly
welcomed him and escorted him to the
official reception in the residence of the
President.
Water Front Crowded.
The water front was lined for
miles by the cheering population. Since
large numbers had come from the capi-
tai, Quito, and other parts Of the coun-
try, it was estimated that no fewer
than $4,000 persons struggled for a
glimpse of the nations guest. Not only
did they line the streets, waving Amer
ican and Ecuadorean flags, but many
ascended to the house tops along the
streets through which he passed. A
national holiday had been proclaimed
in honor of Mr.. Hoover. All govern
ment offices were closed and business
was virtually suspended.
Along the route from the dock to the
presidential residence were soldiers and
volunteer firemen in brilliant red coats
and glistening helmets. lining both sides
of the streets and standing only few
feet apart Behind them the crowd
shouted without pause, Viva Hoover,
viva United States, viva Ecuador" AS

FIVE MEN IN TEXAS
Bodies Burned Beyond Rec
ognition When Flaming Craft
Dives to Earth.
BY the Associated Press.

SPUR, Tex, December Five men
were burned to death six miles north
of Spur this afternoon when the tri-
notored airplane in which they were
riding en- route from San Antonio to
Denver crashed and burst into flames.

The other victims; Willis Washburn,
%, employe of San Antonio garage;
Filipino cook. employed by Ballard, by
the name of Quinten, and James
O'Banion, Ballards chauffeur, Denver.
The bodies of the five men were so
badly charred that Identification was
impossible. It. was determined soon
after the crash that Ballard and Watson
were probably among the dead as papers
found in a suitcase thrown clear of the
wreckage disclosed their names. The
other victims names were learned at
San Antonio where the plane took of
early today
Line men employed by the West Texas
Utilities Co. saw the ship crash at about
o'clock this afternoon and were first to
reach the scene The plane was first
identified by its liconse number by
flyer employed at San Antonio. The
trouble that led to the crash had not
been ascertained tonight. The plane
was seen flying low as though in an
attempt to get down when suddenly it
went out Of control and crashed in
flames.
Ballard was said to own property in
Is States and in two Canadian prov
inces. He purchased the first Ryan
monoplane manufactured after Col.
Charles A Lindberghs Spirit of st.
Louis" was turned out.
Watson, the pilot, was well known
commercial pilot and war air veteran.
He. recently had been employed as pilot
at the Austin Airport. During the
World War he was q sergeant in the
Air Service and was stationed at Ell
lington Field, Houston, and Mitchell
Field New York. He formerly oper-
ated flying school in Los Angeles,

Practically all the Protestant and

ton of King George at that hour.
BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, December Public ankle
ty over the illness of King George in
creased tonight The official bulletin
this morning related that the royal pa
tient had experienced a slight rise in
temperature, and the one given out to-
night said:
The King has had rather disturbed
day, with short intervals of sleep, and
is, therefore, somewhat fatigued.'
1t also was anr3~nced that, although
no forenoon bulletin vas given out last
Sunday, the regular marning and eve
ming announcements would be issued
tomorrow.
Public Is Pessimistic.
Thoroughly converSant with the GUS
tomary reticence displayed in messages
from the palace, the public was in
clined to take more pessimistic view
Of the Sovereign'S illness than was indi-
Gated by the guarded language en-
ployed in today's official announce
mentS.
The exact extent of the pleurisy
and infection of the lung of King
George and his temperature are alike
unknown to the public. His tempera-
ture reading has not been given out
by his physicians since Monday night,
when the bulletin said that it had in
creased to 1016 degrees. 1t was lower
the next morning, and again yester-
day a drop was mentioned.
On Thursday it was announced that
the infective process was being held in
check, but the bulletins yesterday
warned the public that the time of pos
Sible eXacerbation of the infection had
not yet passed.
King Reported "Fatigued."
Tonight. for the first time, the physi-
clans said that the royal patient was
"fatigued." He has been in bed almost
two weeks, and his illness is now about
at its crisis.
Throughout the vast empire tomor-
row the subjects of the King will offer
up prayers for his recovery. These will
be not alone in the churches and
chapels of many denominations of the
Christian religion, but in the places of
worship of many other creeds followed
in the domains over which the afflicted
ruler is sovereign.
The Queen and Princess Mary took
short motor drive during the after
! noon, but the week end plans of the
royal family were much altered because
of the illness of his majesty. The King
and Queen some time ago had planned
to go to Sandringham today, while the
Duke and Duchess of York had ar
