CENSUS
To GIVE JOBS
To $4,000
White Collar Workers Get
Break in Plans for Big
Business Survey

Jobs for 10000 white collar
workers will be provided in the
census of American business to be
undertaken Immediately after the
New Year, according to William
L. Austin, Director of the Census
Director Austin estimated that
about 500 persons would be en-
ployed in the census in Washing
ton.
Preliminary work on this great
project, which will give a job for
every 14O business establishments
in the country, is nearing com
pletion, it was said today. 1t is
expected to show the effect of the
economic crisis on distribution
and service business, regarding
which data are lacking.
Stores Included
Some 100000 establishments
will be canvassed, and 2,500,000
man hours Of employment pro
vided. All establishments en-
gagged in wholesaling, retailing, ser
vicing and amusement business
and hotels will be covered, but
agriculture. manufactures, con-
struction, transportation, financial
and educational institutions, as
well as personal and professional
service, will be left out.
It is hoped that comparisons
which the census will make pos
sible, as between 1929 and 1888,
will prove a guide for sound plan
ming. The kind of business done
in 1888, persons employed, amount
of payroll and other expenses,
stocks on hand and other data
will be sought.
Census Taken in 1929
A census of distribution was
taken in 1929, and this will be the
first opportunity to check up with
the figures then obtained, as it
was the first census of its kind.
It is believed that the current CEN
sus will show month-to-month
gains in employment under the
recovery program.
Field work is to be completed
by February is, and to facilitate
this the QUESTIONABLE to business
firms is brief, though all essential
points are covered. Individual re-
turns will be held confidential.

Developments in the tangled

ments for the Washington arer,
one presented by organized far
mers and other by organized in

it was indicated, with instructions
to "get togeather" and present a
new code along the lines of the
AAA's revised milk policies.
Seek Curb On Output
2. Headed by Secretary Wallace,
officials are working out the de-
tails of the new policies, which
will center about plan for limit
ing the production of milk
throughout the country.
3. To gain support of the dairy
industry for the new policies, Sec
retary Wallace has broadened the
scope of today's conference with
farm leaders to include prominent
figures in the producing and dis
tributing end of the milk, butter
and cheese industries.
4. Charles w. Holman, execu-
tive secretary of the National
Cooperative Milk Producers Fed
Grafton, among those attending
today's conference, charged that
the AAA butter purchase plan was
"indecisive," and scored its fall
ure to stabilize butter prices,
which have been falling rapidly
recently.
Price Fixing Seen
5. Pending milk m rk ng
agreements in the AAA are schedr
uled to be either returned to their
proponents for revision, or to be
amended through public hearings
in the localities affected. Among
the policies to be incorporated is
that of fixing prices to the farmer,
and providing a cost-plus basis for
distributors sales, but prohibiting
flat fixed prices for retail sales.
6. Existing agreements may be
either scrapped, as in the case OF
the emergency Chicago pact re-
Gently rescinded by Secretary Wal
lace, or reopened at further pub

PACT
To Be SIGNED

Protests by the National Wo-
mans Party will not be necessary
to induce the United States to
sign the equal nationality treaty,
regarded by feminists as of vital
Importance to women. Just as
the protest was about to be
launched, word came from Mon
tevideo that Secretary of State
Hull would sign the document.
All the Latin-American republics
will also sign.
The treaty provides that men
and women shall have equal
rights with respect to nationality
in the Western Hemisphere. It
was drafted bv DR.. Alice Paul,
founder Of the National Woman's
Party, and is the first treaty
drawn by woman to be adopted
by international action. It reads:
"The contracting states agree
that from the going into effect
of this convention, there shall
be no distinctions based on sex
in their law and practice relat-
ing to nationality"

WINTER BEGINS
TOMORROW

Winter begins precisely at 1853
tomorrow morning.
But it's beginning will hardly be
described as particularly wintry.
The temperature in the forenoon
today was 48 degrees and was
gradually mounting, which is un-
usual for this time of the year,
and very little change was antici-
pated by the Weather Bureau for
tomorrow.
Forecasters would not venture
an opinion on whether the COM
ing winter will be particularly cold
or otherwise, stating that it is i'm
possible to forecast on the basis
of the preceding season.

 Place your food on one end of the table, plates and silver on the other, and let each guest help himself. Have one main hot dish and plenty of sandwiches, pumpkin pie, all sort of relishes, jugs of cider and hot coffee.

1T cannot use mascara because my lashes are short, and 1t seems to get into my eyes easily. making them redden and smart. Is there anything else can ?"-Mary F., Baltimore.
 Soap in mascara makes 1t irri- tating to the sensitive eyes. How ever, there is a new mascara, just on the market-a Persian eyeblack, that is made entirely without soap. Consequently it does not make the eyes smart or redden. It will not smudge or run, either, which are both necessary qualities for good mascara.
 Since your lashes are not long, I'd suggest you use an eyelash grower and darkener for conserva- tive makeup, and to promote the growth of your 1ashes. It is effec- tive in making the lashes appear darker and more luxurious, at the same time that it actually helps them to grow that way. You can also use this cosmetic on your brows.
 It may be that you are applying mascara to both your upper and lower lashes, Personally, l thinkti 1t gives a far more natural and pret- tier effect when the mascara is ap- piled to the upper lashes alone.

Then shape the circle to fit the top opening and cover both circle and stem with crushed orange crepe pa- per. Cut the openings for doors and windows. Use green mat stock for steps, door hingles, blinds and window frames. Clear cellophane will make the window panes, and paper fasteners can be used for the nails.
 Tie several four-inch strips of green crepe paper around the stem and cut ends in the shape of caves. A tiny electric bulb may be lighted on the inside of the cen- terpicce, or the pumpkin house may be filled with favors of fruit and nuts. 1
 A moon and owl centerpiece is something a little different. It's easy to make if you cover . cir cular piece of cardboard with yell low transparent paper and then cut out two owls and paste one on each side of the circle.

 Spooky parties the most fun. You darken the house. place ghost here and there and arrange to have strange colored beams of light coming out of the most expected places.

he wants a gun the denial will only accent his desire and thus frus- trated, his determination to some day own a real gun may be set more deeply.
 Another reason is ethat any ,un- fortunate influence the possession of q synthetic killing machine may have is very likely to be counter acted by his good home influence, his decency and his own good sense.
 After all this, it looks as though the "ayes" have 1t, does it not?
 As to my own opinion, after all, it is only mine. And our pictures of life differ.
 War Psychology.
 Let us take the war.
 This had little to do with toy guns. We were in it and on the face of things 1t had nothing to do with toys either then or before. Yet it was gun psychology, killing psychology that led to it.
 Once an enthusiast, and waving my husband off to battle with what thought was a holy patriotism, I have become pacifist, psycho- logical pacifist. believe in defense as things are because I am not Q fool, but have hate war with a desperate loathing that is born of real experience.j Too bad the gun was ever in- vented. Yes men would still have sticks and stones and spears and catapults, but even so, wholesale destruction would be impossible.
 do not like the psychology that uselessly destroys. It is too ram pant. do not like hunting animals yet I am no chicken heart. I wea r fur on my coat because I need it just as need leather in my shoes. Both mean death. We eat meat and that means death.
 Killer Instinct Spreading.
 Perhaps the animals themselves may be discounted. But the glory of men in killing cannot be- wanton killing that is where some fellow proves to himself how smart he is.
 The killer instinct is spreading. War and hunting, after afl, differ little from the stalking of men, as our cities attest. In some people the urge to kill is diverted to plain citizens, that is all.
 Although thoroughly .practica. person and tolerant too, I hope. I agree today with many of the worlds leading thinkers that we need more of God and less of the devil.
 \, Why make a romance of the gun at all--air gun. top shotgun, or anv other kind? The little boy thinks 1t manly to kill. Once tha. gets in it never gets out. I just do
