A SURE CURE

Travellers in Africa report that "a
tribe there has a custom that re-
quireS an orator to stand on one leg
during a speech and when he tries to
shift to the other foot his speech is
finished. If Enacted in America that
would surely be real cure to some
of those longwinded two-hour orators
here and relief to the audience.

PUBLICITY
ON NUMBER Of
IDLE MEN

Amateur publicity about unem.
ployment does more harm to bust.
ness and general prosperity than
1t does good to those out of work,
says the committee on economics,
appointed by the Federation of Civic
Associations. headed by Charles NJ.
Thomas.
Reports of merely idle people by
no means represent the real situa.
tion," he declared.
Careless statements about the
number of unemployed make the
small dealer reduce his orders on
the jobber and tighten credit, thus
creating a real depression which
may hurt the whole community;
unemployment may be caused by
talking about 1t without facts
says the report In recommending
that Karl Phillips, of the Depart.
ment of Labor, be invited to place
the work of the employment divi.
sion of the Labor Department be.
fore the federation at an early
meeting.
The committee was appointed be.
cause of rumors of wholesale dis.
charge of colored employees by Ger.
tain chain store concerns, a rumor
which the committee finds without
foundation except as to changes in
location or particular jobs due to
reorganization under new manage
ment.

MUSIC SOUGHT
by International

The Washington Federation of
Churches and the District of Co
lumbia Music Council have com.
bined forces for furthering the i'm
minent prospect of better music in

followed by a private addition at
the White House, after which the
organization of so young men and

FREE TEXTBOOK
BILL PUSHED

Enactment of the bill to provide
free textbooks for pupils in Wash
ington's public high schools was be-
ing predicted today following an Of
fer by Senator Phipps of Colorado,
chief opponent of the measure, to
compromise.
Senator Phipps showed com
promising attitude yesterday when
he was called on by delegation OF
about so parents asking for his sup
port of the textbook measure.
He told the delegation he would
talk with Senator Capper, chairman
of the Senate District Committee
with a view to working out some
proposition which would be accept
able to all concerned.
The delegation impressed upon
Phipps the cost of textbooks to high
school pupils. estimating that they
cost about $40 a semester for each
pupil. They pointed out to him
that the District requires children
TO go to school until they are 16
years old and should therefore pro
wide textbooks for them.
The textbook bill has already
passed the House. 1t has been on
the Senate calendar for months
but has been blocked by Phipps'
The last time it came up an
amendment by Phipps to limit ire
free textbooks to junior high schools
was adopted.

where he was, wouldn't be sitting
here, waiting. I would drive that fellow
so far that he would never come back.
Yes, sir, that is what I would do"
HUH" exclaimed Mrs. Robin, and
went for some more material.
1t was then that Welcome Robin
changed his position. He few over to
last saw the stranger. Every time he
had seen the stranger Welcome Robin
had been sitting on this particular
branch. He hadn't noticed this, but it
was fact. Now the instant he alighted
he saw the stranger. Welcome pulled
out his feathers and glared. But he
didn't puff out his feathers and he
didn't glare any more than did the
stranger. Welcome wasted no time. He
flew at that stranger in fury. If he
expected to see that stranger turn tail
and fly away, he was disappointed. The
stranger did nothing of the kind. 1t
was clear that he was willing to meet
Welcome Robin half way. He few
straight at Welcome as furiously as
Welcome was flying at him.
Bang! Welcome Robin had bumped
his head. He didn't know what had
happened. He was too confused to
know what had happened. All he knew
was that he had received a dreadful
bump on the head. 1t had been such a
hard bump that he had fallen to the
ground, but it had done him no serious
harm, and in a few minutes he had
quite recovered. Then he looked for
that stranger. But the stranger wasn't
to be seen.
ST guess taught that fellow lesson
that time" declared Welcome as he
few over to sit where Mrs. Robin was
so busily at work. II don't believe we'll
see him around again. He certainly
hit me an awful blow on the head. But
I guess hit him just as hard"
What are you talking about?" asked
Mrs. Robin, who was beginning to lose
patience. You must be crazy, We'll
come Robin. There isn't any stranger
around here, and there hasn't BEEN"
Then how did get such blow on
the head?" demanded Welcome. Tell
me that, if you please. My head aches
this very minute"
But this was something that Mrs.
Robin couldn't tell him, so she went off
to look for some soft, dead grass that
she needed in the building of that nest.
