lean Farm Bureau Federation, charged

sential and vital to farm welfare"
Winder expressed himself as welcom-
ing aid of existing organizations and
sincere newly formed groups in what
he said was the federations 13-year
fight to cut Government costs. But, he
asserted, the campaign has been seized
upon by greedy. selfish interests who
are opposed to the development Of Or
ganiZed agriculture" Aiming his charge
directly at boards of trade and other
groups, he said: These agencies are
backing reduction as an excuse for try
ing to eliminate the Department Of

SALT LAKE CITY. August 22.-Sen-
ator Tasker L. Oddie OF Nevada. en-
route by airplane from Boulder City.
New, to Reno. today threatened a
senatorial investigation unless steps are
taken Immediately to end alleged mis-
handling of Hoover Dam workers.
Senator Oddie branded the Interior
Departments attitude as one Of either
gross representation or ignorance"
and added:
The engineering portion of the work
at Hoover Dam is being handled in
an admirable style. However, I can
not say as much for the handling of
the thousands of employed"
Among charges made by the Senator
last week while he was at the dam, were
that Six Companies, the contractors,
raid some of the wages to the men in
scrip and that housing and board were
commercialized.
He blamed Joseph M. Dixon, First
Assistant Secretary Of the Interior, for
what he termed the wrongful attitude
placed on my statements at Washing
ton"
II did not say" Senator Oddie de-
clared that all men working at the
dam were paid in scrip. I said a good
part of the wages were paid this way

up in this statement. In the dispatches
from Washington those who seek to be-
little my charges that the contracting
practices at the dam are not all that
they should be, base their denials either
on Misrepresentation Of true facts or
else they have not the courage to meet
them.
The Senator blamed Secretary Will
bur for part of the asserted difficulties
because he said the Secretary evidently
did not care to give the problems at the
dam the proper care and attention"

 New York-Dancers aren't talk ing their steps in the same direc- ton any longer. They used to turn them across the ocean from Europe to America. [
 Now America dances to her own tunes, and Europe sends for Amer can stars.
 At least, two American girls have just come home with the plaudits of foreign countries ringing In their dances.
 Miss Harriet Hoctor, generally conceded to be the queen of Amer ican balierinas, and Miss Myra Kinch, one of America's leading dramatic dancers, both were asked to come to leading theaters abroad to be featured in their dances. Both Learned Dancing In Native Land.
 Both are typical American girls. Neither one has ever studied out side of America. Yet Miss Hector won the applause of Great Britain and Miss Finch had Germany sing ing her praises.
 Miss Hector returned to America because the late Flo Ziegfeld ask ed hr to sign no contracts until she had talked with him. And just recently she was signed to appear in the next edition of Earl Gar rolls "Vanities." Miss Finch came back to star at the New Open Air theater at Griffith Park, while the Olympic games are in process.

T wasn't aware that I had | fit. I thought only cats suffered from that disease" Natalie Web- ber's husky tones drawlwed, inter- rupting Grace's swift flow of words. Mrs Webber was wearing black chiffon negligee that swept around her ankles. Grace was still | wearing the simple black tailored | crepe frock that she had worn when she arrived. Its round white collar gave childish look to her long green eyes, oddly at variance with their msterious color that changed from gray to dark green.
 Perhaps I wasn't so Wrong, then, in, my application. she an- swered Mrs Webber. Her voice was smooth, unruffled.
 'You mean to infer that I am a cat?" Mrs Webber's voice ask ed, and now an acid strain ran through its huskiness.
 'I am making no inferences," l Grace answered. T think it's tme to worllA in the open. You want my husband. don't you? Let's have him choose winch one he
 wants.'
 Natalie webber didn't gasp. She smiled. "TIe is hardly in a condi- il ton to make such a decision at present. You know that very
 we'll. You wouldn't have made the suggestion if you had supposed that you were going to lose"
 "wouldn't F" Grace asked. "It's nice of you to acknowledge that your chances aren't so good. But I think can give you some hope. They are quite god. I'm withdrawing from the field of con- quest--the games yours and luck to you!"
 Jack had gone to the far end of the room where Jimmy waited.
 He had not heard the conversation. Dr Raynor was present, too, and the two men were talking. little removed from Jimmy's improvised bed.
 | Sue stood quietly. So Grace had decided to say what she was thinking and get out. She didn't blame her. There was something shoddy and cheap about fighting to hold husband who so plain- | ly was undecided.
 Grace voiced the same thought when she spoke.
 ''The sacredness of the home is a beautiful theory, Mrs Webber. It's nice to talk about hearth fire and candielight and two people with the world shut away. But the snake crawled into Eden, you know. And when he did, Adam and Eve got out.
 Life doesn't change. think Pm going my way alone now. I'm through with marriage. Jimmy will have his freedom as soon as can give it to him. If he wants you, or doesn't want you, is a diff ferent matter. I'm not especially interested"
 The suddenness of the announce ment had taken away the older woman's composure. She didn't answer.
 Grace went to the chair over which she had thrown her coat and hat. To Sue there was something pathetic in the gesture. Grace was going-walkng out of Jimmy's life. She would not come back again. Sue knew that. And be- cause she wouldn't. Jimmy would probably want her.
 Grace went to the far end of the room where Jimmy lay. She held out her hand.

GLORIFYlNG
 YOURSELF
By Alicia Hart
4l2NsS NEA sERz!eE lNS;

This exercise is so simple it may seem too easy to practice. But it will do wonders for your posture, If you keep repeating it. You may not see how the few simple directions you follow will lead to perfect ease and grace. But then, when you first started to practice scales on the piano, you didn't understand just how they would help you play sentimental ballads. But they did.
 Lie down on the floor, perfectly fiat. Now draw yourself to a sit- ting position, without moving the lower part of your body. Do this four times the first and second nights. The third night increase it to five. Follow the practice of raising your score one every other night, until you have reached 20. Keep your. score there ever after.
 Don't think that you will be helped if you perform the exercise 30 times one night and forget it the next time. Constancy Is as in- portant in this as in anything else.
 Breathing Exercise
 Here is another exercise, equal ly important, that should start off with four repetitions, and in- crease in the same way until the 20 mark is reached. N
 stand barefooted in a wide doorway. Place your hands on the sides of it, at @ level with your clean backward. Now count ten, slowly. inhaling as you, do. and pulling yourself forward on. your toes. Your body should lean forward on the tenth. Now exhale count ten at the same rate and swing back. Your chest will expand. relax. stay young. It is worth the effort it takes.
 Practice walking around your room With your arms Hopping and your body, from the waist up, as limp ks Q rag doll.
 The hectic rush of modern life has a habit of making people tie Into knots. A few sim- pIe exercises will unite the knots and bring reiaxation.

 q don't. And shall tell you why. It is spiritual slavery.
 Train a little child to do our way without rhyme or reason, ac- cept our word, bend to our wishes, succumb, accept, obey! And you have first class 'yes-man' all his life.
 :What will he be? A spineless dependent waiting to be told. Ev- cry act he does, every thought he thinks, will be controlled by some one else. If the system were car ried out perfectly the world would be full of mentally paralyzed peo- pie.
 ''I have no use for that blpnder- ing parent who demands perfect obedience from a little child-dis- cipline that makes no allowance for the tots way Of reasoning. his rights. or his privilege to be him- self!' 4
 Too Much Discipline.
 "Oh yes!" someone sneered when expressed these views one day. And what would you have A coun.. ary full of harGm -scarums and worse when they grew up. That is the trouble today, We have too many youngsters who don't know what obedience means"
 "Yes, we have too many undis- ciplined people," I agreed.

That is the deadliest thing I know" What would you suggest as a substitute?" asked another moth- | CT.
 Habit. A child will fall quite naturally into doing certain things at a certain time, and do them naturally from some force within himself instead of the stranger superimposed will and the bigger muscles of his parents" 'It is too idealistic for me- sighed third. That's all theory. Just try to practice it."
 Must Undcstand q have. And succeeded. One thing I learned in working with children is that you will get obe- dfence in a certain thing, just as soon as the baby's or child's mind is old enough to grasp the reason ableness of it. We infiict orders to satisfy our own selfshness very often.'
 Then you don't believe in un- questioning obedience?"
 Certainly I do, but only in about six things. The scale can widen somewhat each year as the child grows. But I have descoved- ed this. The reasonable, under standing parents who tries to de- velop the child and puts his or her own selflshness in the background, has no trouble whatever with dis -obedience. And their children are independent, fortnight, honest, and capable children"
