to Knox Miss Cora Lee Payne, an oc-
cupant of the house in which Mrs.
Bauman lived, said Knox was at the

house to get his fathers watch after

Actors Equity Association,
In Letter, Outlines Views on
Juvenile Theater Work.

Stephen E. Cochran, manager of the
National Theater, who has interested
himself in obtaining passage of the
Capper- Morton amendment to the Dis
trict of Columbia child labor act, per-
mitting children to appear in theaters
here on permit from the Board Of Edu-
cation, announced today receipt of a
communication from the Actors Equity
Association supporting the proposed
amendment
I'VE, as an organization, do not favor
hampering legitimate producers any
more than can be helped" said the
letter IF children are banished from
the stage, many of the classics, in their
entirety, can never be presented in this
country.
I'VE have only to mention King
John Richard the Third and several
others of ShakeSpeare's works, to say
nothing of modern plays. If children
are rot allowed to appear on the stage,
dramatic authors will be circumScriDed
to a certain extent, since some problems
require the employment of child.
Then, too, there should be considered
the child in the movies, the gifted child
instrumentalist, etc.
safeguard should be thrown around
stage children. For instance, managers
who engage them should be bonded,
that the children should be accom-
panied when travelling by a parent or
guardian, that they should not be kept
up after certain hours, that the char
acter of the play should be investigated,
and that their school education should
progress normally to all of which might
be added a limitation of the number of
performances. If these conditions were
exacted from the theatrical managers
we cannot but believe that a child'S
experience on the stage would be
beneficial rather than harmful.
Questions of this nature, we think,
should be regarded in a broad and
general way and not so as to emphasize
remote instances where few individ-
uals have been abused. BY all means
let us correct the abuses but don't let
us be drastic and make the remedy
worse than the disease. Don't let us
check the precious talent which may
exist in some children, talent which
needs expression to properly develop"

The difference between the open.
ing days of the Republican and
Democratic conventions was IA
degrees in the shade. With the
exception of a 10-minute inter
lude of delirium when Senator
Barkley in his keynote speech
proposed repeal plank, the first
session was as dull as the tWen-
tieth day of a marathon dance.
There was one sign of diShar-
mony yesterday, however. The
band and Nine. Rose Zulaliam
had a slight disagreement during
her rendition of the national an
them. At the beginning she sang
too fast for the musicians, but
once they warmed up she couldn't
catch up to them. They finished
one minute before she did to
gain the first victory of the con-
vention.
The only excitement of the day
came when Senator Barkley
after droning along for nearly
two hours, electrified the crowd
with his demand for a repeal
plank. With a happy shout the
delegates grabbed their banners
and began to parade about the

BANKERS MOVE
To DICTATE
NOMINEE
By JOHN T. RANKIN
Member of Congress from Mississippi
and Chairman House Military
Affairs Committee


Affairs Committee
Copyright, 1882, BY International
News SerVice)
AGO, June 28.-The
Democratic party faces one of
the momentous decisions in its
history in the Chicago conven-
ton. It is-shall Wall Street
name the next President of the
United States?
Every student of politics knows
that in all probability the next
President will be Democrat,
and no one knows it better than
Wall Street.
And so the financiers who
wrecked the country now are
fighting a battle behind closed
doors to dictate the nominee OF
the convention.
The Republicans have already
named a candidate who has
gratified every desire of these
selfish interests. Having no pollt-
ical principles, the interests seek
to control both parties.
Same Tactics Again
The rank and file of the dele
gates in the Chicago convention
feel the situation. They have
noted dispatches stating that
Wall Street has placed its stamp
of approval UPON certain poten-
tial candidates for the nomina-
ton.
For years the financial inter
ests and the political bosses have
used the two-thirds rule to force
upon the convention a candidate
acceptable to them. They are
using the same tactics this year.
Those of us who have resisted
the pressure of the power inter
ests, the banking interests, and
every other special interest in
Congress are using all our power
to assure the nomination OF a
Democrat who will render honest
service to all the people.
Fears For Worst
During the present session of
Congress the Republican Admins
tration used it's power to vote a
"dole" to the railroads and bank
ing interests. President Hoover
negotiated moratorium on in
ternational debts.
The bankers who have loaned
billions to Europe want to cancel
the ten billion dollars of debts
which Europe owes this country
and thus make their own reck-
less investments more secure.
The power interests, which
have plunged billion dollar COM
panies into bankruptcy and
destroyed the life savings Of
hundreds of thousands of people,
now are fearful that brave
President and an honest Demo
crat in the person of Franklin D.
Roosevelt would put an end to
their thievery.
If the Democratic convention
bows to the dictates of Wall
Street and names candidate
who in turn will bow to Wall
Street, the next four years will
be one of the darkest periods in
American history.

local beer barons sitting in the

which would admit the delegates
to their thirst quenching en-

Governor Roosevelt lost the
first round of this battle of the
century when he gave up the
fight to force abrogation of the
two-thirds rule. This was a great
break for many of the delegates
who have spent the past week
trying to find out what "abroga.

NEW YORK TRUMBULL

Since stocks have gone up, our bold
leaders of finance and Industry nave
stuck their heads out of the cyclone
cellar, but are ready to pull in their
necks at the first cloud or new pun OF
air. Still, it seems natural to some OF
us, who can remember the storm of
1929, to hear once more in homes and
restaurants the talk of investments in
stead of walls concerning the depres
sion. People actually are giving each
other tips again. And they are be-
ginning to take a little gamble on the
market again. They figure that this
time they will sell at the top. OF
course, they won't. Anyhow, it is
lucky break for brokers' clerks. Some
of them are going to work again.
launching at The Players recently,
William P. Beazell pointed out that the
depression really had caused the start
of a new cycle. First, there were
lot of small businesses. Then came
corporations and consultations, which
eliminated the little fellow and result
ed in big business. When the depres-
sion arrived, big business had to close
up or cut down and there was ter
rifle increase in the country's unem-
ployed. The less resourceful of these
sat around and waited for their old
employers to start hiring again, but
there were others who decided to take
a shot at something new. For exam
pie, Mr. Beazell told Of one youngster
who had worked for big chain store.
He went to number Of customers In
q certain neighborhood and told them
that if they would agree to buy their
groceries steadily Of him he could save
them money, because he had no over
head and would not have to allow for
waste. He worked up q profitable
business.
Now that youngster would not go
back to his former job If he could.
He Is his own boss and doing we'll.
The chances are that some day he will
open a little store, and it will grow
larger, and he will either form chain
or sell out to one. Then the new
cycle will be complete. But that time
probably is couple Of decades away,
or more. Another youngster, who al
ways has been clever carpenter, me-
chanic and electrician, has built and
sold number Of ice boxes. Others
have made Jobs for themselves. By
and large, there will not be much trou-
BILE about youth. Youth can adapt it.
self to any conditions and it is fitted
to survive. The ones who feel the
hard going are the middle-aged, who
do not find it so easy to suit them

A DOLLS BERET

If doll in your house needs a
new bonnet why not make her this
one? 1t is so easy for it can be
made out of any scraps of cloth
and as large or as small as you
please. You can even make one
for yourself If you like. Cut one
circle of cloth like figure 1, solid;
then cut another just like 1t but
out of this one cut a round piece
big enough for whatever head you
are making the beret, as you
see in figure 2, Now cut a strip
on the bias that is diagonally
across the cloth, first measuring
the head the hat is for, exactly the
size you find 1t is. Now gather the
circle that has the hole cut out
Of 1t onto the band, and sew the
whole circle to that. And there
you have the hat, already for any
doll or child or person whom 1t
will fit, and the nice part Of 1t is
that you can make one for every
cOlored dress If you like. Dolly
can have one to match every out
fit she has.

THE BOY WHO WAITED

There were five Of them In all,
five boys who started off one morn
ing for q picnic in the country.
The sun was shining and everyone
felt ready for happy day. None
of them dreamed that before night
fall something would happen to
change the horizon for each and
every one, but particularly for one.
Jimmy Norton was the leader OF
the group as rule. Somehow the
boys always knew they could trust
Jimmy to lead them the best. He
was fair and when he said some
thing that was usually just what
he meant and he would stick to It.
They took their bicycles and their
lunch baskets and went whistling
off.
The day went Just as they had
planned until they were coming
home. Just as they turned into
the center of the town, it was a
very small town, an auto came
whizzing around corner and
knocked down a little girl. No
one was around and the auto did
not stop. Jimmy and the other
boys hurried to the spot. The lit
tie girl lay unconscious. 1t was
supper time and nearly everyone

everything being so still and quiet.
Jimmy said, We'll, we'll have to
wait until some one comes. You get
the doctor and tell him to come
down here right away, Ed. I'll wait
here and try to bring the little girl
back to consciousness" He had
heard his father use that word
sometimes and this was the first
time he had ever known where 1t
belonged.
"Say," said one of the other
boys, do you think we're going to
stick around here and have the
cops think we knocked her down?
Nothing doing. We're going to get
out Of sight. And you'd better too,
Jimmy. You'll get put in Jail, you
will, If you stay. They'll say you

you did or not"
you don't think I'd go away
from here, do you, and leave her
here all alone. Go on home If you
want to, I'm going to stay here"
He worked over the little girl as
he had learned to do in the scouts
and one by one the other boys
thinking about what that one had
said, sneaked off into the dark
ness. Jimmy stayed, and as soon
