|RED CROSS PLANS
TO HELP JOBLESS
Local Chapters Will Assist In
National Effort Where
Necessary

Washington, Sept. 10.-F-Th
Red Cross stood prepared Thursday
to administer relief next winter
through its local chapters to those
suffering and In want from any cause
which Is not being met by Others.
This policy was set forth in a let
ter from chairman John Barton Payne
to all chapter heads. At the same
time he said in a statement more
than 1000 units were engaged in un-
employment relief work.
Where there Is suffering and want
from any cause and the fundamental
local needs are not being met" Payne
said, chapters may participate in the
community plans for meeting the
need"
He offered the advice and coopera-
ton of national headquarters to local
units in meeting their relief problems,
but stressed the Red Cross principle
Of distinguishing between distress re-
sulting from natural and "econom-
ic" causes.
!. The Red. Cross, he added. does not
duplicate work Of other agencies but
its chapters undertake general re-
lief work when adequate aid is un-
available. Financial support for such
work, he explained, has to be pro-
vided locally.
In his statement, Payne said 1851
chapters were engaged in general
family relief work directly helping
their communities to meet the unusual
needs of the present situation BY
assuming responsibility for all or part
of local unemployment relief"
During the year ended June 80"
he added, approximately 100000 per-
sons were given relief by these Red
Cross chapters"
Meanwhile, Walter S. Clifford, ma
tional relief director, was completing

A

Paramount's new production Of
"Huckleberry Finn" which will show
at the Paramount Theatre here be-
ginning today. recalls the Paramount
silent perturbation of the illustrious
Mark Twain story more than eleven
years ago.
In the silent version, the role Of
Huck, which Junior Durkin portrays
in the new picture, "a played by
Lewis Sargent, and the part Of Tom
Sawyer, in which Jackie Coogan Is
cast, was characterized by Gordon
Griffith.
It is interesting to note that the
character Sid Sawyer, played now
by Jackie Scarf, was not written into
the 1920 film. "Huckleberry Finn"
in talking form, gives youngster Scarf
another opportunity to match his per-
formances in tom Sawyer" and
"Skippy."
