Washington, Nov 27-(UP)- The republicans in the 72nd con- gress will have a tartar on their hands in Rep Charles H. Martin, new democrat from Portland, Ore.
 Martin, a retired army general, is noted for his fighting qualities, for never ignoring challenge, and for fearing no one. He was elected from a preponderantly republican district largely on the strength Of a personal campaign and his vio- lent opposition to the Anti-Saloon League.
 During his campaign for con- gress-his first political effort-he was called on the telephone one day about 10 a. m. by the secretary of the democratic state central committee. That official informed Martin with some trepidation that the Anti-Saloon League demanded before noon a reply from the gen. eral to a questionnaire asking his stand on prohibition.
 "Tell them they'll get it." roared the general, while the rafters shook and the phone hopped up and down quivering.
 Then he sat down and wrote his reply. In it he called the league of selection of choice epithets, said he was against prohibition and against the Anti-Saloon League, and added it was none of the leagues business how he voted Tn congress.
 Martin is a spotlight lover but a hard worker. He smokes deadly Manila cigars, loves roses, and was D-tva nla shing.
 Weekly book review:
 There may be some artistic ex- cuse for writing and publishing Characteristics Associated with Abortion and Intersexual Flowers in the Eggplant" (government printing office) but this reviewer has been unable to detect them. Much as we are opposed to cen sorship in general, much as we approve free and full artistic ex- pression by our rising authors, we | feel constrained to condemn this publication as bordering on the obscene and adding nothing to the sum total of our cultural life. The author, Ora Smith. states i his sole excuse for the book in the first sentence, in which he says:
 ''The structures and processes
 concerned in flower and fruit for nation in the eggplant have re- ceiyed very little consideration"
 That seems to this reviewer en- tirely inadequate. There is nc valid reason why they should be considered, outside doctors offices and medical laboratories.
 The book is replete with sucf doctor books words as abortion. ab' normalities, reproductive organs embryo sac, degeneration. oyule | hermaphroditic, sex, and the like It is commended to the attention oi of the New York Society for ths guppression of Vice.

Reports From Less Than One Third

Show $500 Collected.
BY a stan Correspondent of The Star.

BY STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, Md, February
10.-IndicationS that the public schools
Of Prince Georges County would con-
tribute more than 81 900 to the current
Red Cross drive were given today when
reports from less than one-third of the
schools showed $503.66 had been re-
ceiyed.
The only large school in the list of
those reporting was the HyattSville High
School, which contributed SOL. The
Marlboro Colored High School was the
first of the colored group to report,
sending in $21.30.
While no fixed quota was set for the
schools and no canvaSsing or benefit
performances were permitted, school of
f1cials hoped that an average of 10 cents
per pupil would be received. This would
net more than $1,000.
Mrs. Mary W. Euwer, chief clerk in
the Office of the Board Of Education
and treasurer of the school Red Cross
campaign, was informed that Marion
Anderson, a pupil in the Hyattsville
Elementary School, donated 81 which
she had been saving to buy a pair of
skates after hearing Mrs. H. M. SturgisS,
principal, tell Of the drought suffering.
j. EnoS Ray, chairman of the Coun-
ty-wide Committee which is endeavor-
ing to raise Prince Georges allotment
of $4,000, declared yesterday hes was
well satisfied" with early reports. Some
of the communities launched their
drives late, but Chairman Ray expects
all to report today or tomorrow.
