Arkansas Lawmakers i'm Session

Arkansas lawmakers are in session. They were
called to the capitol by Gov. Parnell to consider cotton
relief measures and to enlarge the powers of the state
highway audit commission to permit it to investigate the
hundred million dollar expenditures of the highway de-
partment since 1927. Before calling the session the gov
ernor obtained pledges from members of a no-pay SEES
sion. Visible supply of American cotton approximates
2~4,000,OOO bales. Why not a half cotton crop next year?
Why continue to invite poverty "away down on the cot
ton farm? 2"

Then try doughnutsl
All October has been set aside
for the American public as National
Doughnut Month. The bakers OF
the country feel that the impor-
lance Of the doughnut in Ameri-
can life has eve been properly
emphasized.
The doughnut Is an American
institution. Without it the bakery
windows would look bleak. the
pantry cake box would seem des-
olate and the dinner table forlorn.
without the doughnut the lives
of little children would seem empty,
the lunch pail Of the workingman
would lose its luster, the schoolboy's
noon lunch would be = mockery and
the New England dinner a sham.
Without the doughnut what

Without the doughnut where

sugar in their ears and what would
become OF the old time custom
known as "crumbing?"
Only 250,000 900 dozen doughnuts
were consumed in America last year
which is a new low for the decade.
II means that only three dozen
doughnuts were "donkc per
capita. 1t means that the country
Is full Of doughnut slackers.
Something must be done TO
glorify the America doughnut and
restore 1t to its prestige and respect.
OF course the bakers could have
appealed to President Hoover 10
solve the doughnut crisis. but he
would only refer il to the wicker

emerge with nothing but the hole.
President Hoover could have or
ganiZed a doughnut pool. but this
too had its drawbacks and so the
bakers decided on October as Ma
tional Do-Right-By-Th Doughnut
Month.
The idea is taking hold. The
country Is in the throes OF a dough-
nut orgy. The splashing Of the
"donkers" echoes across the coun-
try like the beating Of surf on the
shore.

Letter

NEW YORK-well. girls. even
your gowns will have q theme song
this year. 1 agree, this theme song
thing has gone q bit too far for
ordinary patience.
But, after all, there doesn't
seem to be any good reason why q
particularly comfortable pajama
outfit shouldn't be donned TO the
tune OF She's Such a Comfort TO

ming dress that could be described
by Sweet and Low. To say no
thing of Sweet and Lovely"
At any rate, Elizabeth Halves,
the clever young fashion designer
OF the Fifty-seventh street belt in
Manhattan, has started the vogue
and there's no telling where II will
end.
Miss Halves informed me at her
salon the other day that she never
could pick out names TO fit her
creations. Most designers merely
number their gowns, but Miss
Halves considers that quite too un-
imaginative.
I arrived Just as a pretty model
vas walking about in q lovely
thing-um-bob with a grand white
doo-hickey at the collar, and when
the pianist played Fine and

/ was informed. Our own boys and
girls have been terribly neglected.
You hear that the youngsters here
well-I happen to know better. On
these walls you will see three
paintings by a young man who Is
getting his first break. We heard
about him and went to his studio.
He was using a blanket on the floor
for a bed. He was eating off an old
box and had one stool and a few
unframed pictures on the wall.
That was all And he was about
