BY RODNEY BUTCHER NEA Service Writer

Washington--The men who man. age and help manage political campaigns are a hapless lot. No- body loves them and usually they are not especially lovable. If their candidate loses they usually dror off into oblivion and even when he wins they are likely to learn that their Is a jinxed and thankless job
 In fact, you might say that demo- cratic political managers have usually been happily forgotten once their man lost the election, where as republican managers more often than not have remained in the pic ture while only to squirm and suffer.
 William M. Butler, the Massa- chusetts millionaire, was Calvin Coolidge's campaign manager and all he got out of 1t was @ tempo rary appointment to the senate and couple of tragic tries at being elected to that job with Gals en- dorsement. He has faded back into the position of a campaign con- tributor. if he is that.
 The Hoover Henchmen
 MT Hoover's hand picked re- publican national chairmen have been, successively, Dr Hubert Work, Claudius Huston, Senator Simeon Fess of Ohio and former Congressman Everett Sanders. whose last public job was that of secretary to Coolidge.
 Sanders is new at the post, hay ing been appointed for the 1882 campaign, but the other three went out to the tune of much rejoicing, whether loud or subdued, among republicans. Work was the victim of his own ineptitude, Huston the victim of his private activities as disclosed by the seante lobby com- mittee and Fess merely Q victim of Fessism.
 -Mr Sanders may yet fool every body by blossoming out as an able effective manager, but most of the comment on him to date has been confined to speculation as to how he came to be considered for the job, let alone appointed. He may be considered as a more or less typical republican campaign man. ager, however, and one is remind CT that his home state of Indiana lIdS Cu piCbJy oh SoOu even though Mir Sanders does seem to he a rather colorless, unimagina- tive person.
 Benjamin and Brown
 A couple of gents in the back ground, holding no official cam paign position, are expected to do most of the fast, more import ant thinking.
 First, there is Hoover's close friend, Ray Benjamin. who is credited with keen mind and great political sense, and then there's Postmaster General Wal ter F. Brown, one of the few ad- ministration politicians on whom no flies have been observed at one time or another.
 Robert IT. Lucas, who has been executive director of the national campaign and really ran things during the Tess tenure, is now a more assistant to the chairman at Chicago national Headquarters and seems to have been re1egated to the comparatively obscure po- sition for which he has been

If You Like Sea Stories,
 Get This One

If you were brought up on the great sea stories of Melville. Dana and the rest you have probably wished, now and then. that there was some way in which you could find out just what the everyday activities on the old sailing ships looked like. The writers have painted great ord-pictures of life at sea, but the ordinary landlubber has a hard time getting a very clear notion of the actual appear ance of things aboard ship. Now, however, comes Alan J. Villiers with "rhe Sea in Ships to meet that need-and fine job. he does of it, too. MT Villiers sailed from Australia to England on @ square-rigged ship in the grain trade-sailed on two ships, to be exact, for he made the voyage twice. He took his camera along and kept the shutter click ing, and his new book is simply a lvollection of 112 photographs made at sea.
 To me, this book of pictures is simply invaluable, and believe 1t will be to everyone who likes tales of the sea. MT Villier's camera has caught just about every aspect of life aboard . square-rigger of the old type. All of his pictures are fascinating; some of them are truly beautiful.
 He has appended & brief, in- formative account of the status of the sduare.risger to-day, coupled with very short description of the sailors life on such a vessel. Having put together a fine collec- ton of photos, he has the sense to stand back and let them speak for themselves.
 "The Sea in Ships" is published by Morrow, and retails at $2.76.

After all the talk about Worcester. Springfield. 'Hartford. and Boston fighting for the federal home loan bank to be estab lished in New England the board picked Cambridge for this honor. Now the task of financing the twelve home loan banks commences. Stock in them can only be purchased by building and loan assoeia- tions. and certain types of insurance com panies and savings banks. If they don't subscribe the necessary capital the banks will have to apply to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation where .S125.00o.000 is available for their use. And in the mean time small home owners are still squirming. Speed is demanded in making loans avail able

 In spite of the universal experience of mod crn times, the quaint fancy still prevails that it is necessary or advisable that the girl bud ding into womanhood wear some such harness to mold or restrain her natural growth to the

 Besides bending at the hips to touch the
 floor with the fingers or if possible with the
 palms, other helpful exercises are lifting the legs slowly to vertical as you lie on your back.
 swing the body from side to side as you stand
 erect, and swinging the extended arms in a
 great circle from hands behind heels on the
 left to hands behind heels on the right Such exercises should be done only two or three
 times at a seance at first. but regularly every night and morning.
 The heel and toe drill is valuable not only
 to keep the ankles strong and slender but to prevente pfonated feet and nat foet. Pronated feet are weak feet, which turn in at the ankles;
 this is the early stage of falling arches or flat feet. The heel and toe drill should be done with bare or in stocking feet. First rise on toes, as high as you can, then slowly down and pull the toes up so that you stand on heels then slowly down and repeat. Always toeing nj, rocking to and fro on the outer borders Of the feet This exercise. too, should be done only two three times at first, but regularly every night and morning.

SALAD DAYS (NeW York rald.Tribunel

Now that in Q thousand restau- rant kitchens throughout the length of the land thousand salad chefs are practicing their amiable art and mystery in its an- nual heyday 1t may be pertinent to ask what has become of the old fashioned gentleman who used to insist on mixing his own salads at the table. He was urgent in re- quests for bowl and salad fork, cress and varied greenstuffs; vocal in his demands for crystal salt and malt vinegar, mustard, white pepper, tarragon, chives and curbing his impatience for little maine and paprika. A French ta- ble proverb asserts that "it takes four people to make a dressing: a spendthrift for the oil, a miser for the vinegar, wise man for the salt and fool for the pepper" and the old-school salad enthusiast was all four of these in one ju- dicious entity. "Travaillez la salade" was the motto on his arms. and how he did work it! z
 Nowadays 1t would seem that the old gentleman who of yore was visible at his club table putt tering about his fresh greens and pressing favorite recipes on all corners is in abeyance, but more and more the salad, originally a Continental importation, is be- coming an American favorite. In the ultimate pinnacle of esteem 1t becomes the dish about which the whole of a summertime luncheon or Sunday supper is built. and If the hand that stirs the salad does not rule the gastronomic world 1t certainly makes no mean contri- button toward the art of hot weather living. Salad ingredients, fresh. crisp and inexpensive. are on every hand. Originality of de- sign Is one of the chief charms of the herbAceous arrangement. It is . time when all who will may dabble successfully in the culinary art.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Kerosene Cured Collic,s CoOties


 Our collie caught fcas year ago. We tried many expensive remedies without success. Fin ally we applied coal oil after 1t had stood in an open vessel for three days. (On standing ex- posed to the air the kerosene seems to lose gas and its property of irritating Qe burning the okin.) One application cured the dog of his Aacs. CD. J.)
 Answer-Thank you. But what I asked for is reports of experiences of people who have for their own ailments. When q dog or cat has found kerosene (coal oil) 6 satisfactory remedy neas 1t is important to treat the cracks of the floor or the bedding of the kennel to destroy flea larvae. Flake napthalene Is good for this, especially If the room or kennell can be kept tightly closed over night The napthalene may be swept up next morning and used over again as needed.
 Diet Specialists

Answer--Don't hurry us so. There are only few litre things wS know about dlet. All the rest is more or less speculative, so there Is plenty of room for every little dietist to market his own personality.
