rnent by Leroy A. Halbert, relief di-
rector, made public yesterday by George

uenditureS amounted to 81 ,039, ,057 .19,

care OF the destitute here has been very
largely buttressed by grants from the
Federal emergency relief funds.
Tbs Halbert report shows that on
November there were 1876 open
cases on the relief roster, net decrease
gf seven from the total on October 28.
During that week there were 431 new
cases, but approximately the same num-
Der were dropped from the rolls.
= About 86 per cent of the weekly dis
MlrsementS for relief is going to men
and women as pay for work ON the
various made work" projects. There
ere some 5000 persons employed on
such operations.

LABOR CELEBRATES

Monday is dedicated throughout the
United States to labor, our paradoXical
language making it appear that it is a
day of work, when, on the contrary, ii is
the day when those who labor turn from
their work and enjoy day of rest.
1t is becoming more apparent each day
that labor is entitled to celebrate, at least
one day in the year, the progress it has
made over the last few decades.
In the past three years it has been hard
hit, many who sincerely desire to work
being unable to obtain it through no
forced to work spasmodically and few
have had steady employment.
The depression has hit all classes, but
it is hardly to be disputed that labor
so-called, has suffered more than the
other classifieations.
But on Monday labor will celebrate
not perhaps as enthusiastically as in the
old days, but certainly with a brighter
spirit than last year, for instance, for
these days hold out promise that event
ually, with the country pulling together
under the NRA employment will once
more become general.
What does labor celebrate? There
might be number OF answers. ours
would be that it celebrates its emancipa-
tion from practical serfdom that exist
ed long before labor began to direct its
energies toward bettering its conditions
1t might be celebrating the death Of the IA
and 16 hour day under vile sanitary and
health conditions, which existed through
out our manufacturing area in the old
days.
Throughout the year, except for
short interval in summer, men went to
work in the dark of the morning and re-
turned in the dark of the night, day in
and day out, often for seven days a week.
They were not supposed to have any time
for themselves or their families above
what was necessary for eating and
sleeping.
They were exploited by their employ
ers, who were far more soicitous of their
machines than Of their workmen. The
former cost money and were expensive
to replace. The latter could be discard
ed at any time without loss.
Labor, perhaps, would be the first to
admit that it has made some mistakes in
its progress from emancipation. Being
composed of humans it could not be
otherwise But the benefits labor's fight

UNCLE WIGGILY SAILS HOME

Did you swim off to catch me
so you could have a ride?' asked
Uncle Wiggily Of his Polar Bear
gentleman friend as soon as Mr..
Whitewash was aboard the raft.
Not exactly" answered the big,
white-furred chap. Il swan off
from shore to tell you to be care
full"
Careful of what?" asked Mr..
Longears.
"Of danger" answered Mr.. White
wash. Something happened soon
after you started out to try the
raft boat. 1 though l had better
come and warn you about it.
"Oh, my goodness sakes alive and
some lollypops!" exclaimed Uncle
Wiggily, his pink nose quite pale
and with hardly any twinkle. What
happened?"
Hoist your sail again and I'll tell
you" said the Polar Bear.
Uncle Wiggily once more fas-
tened his spare handkerchief to the
mast. The wind blew it out like
half a balloon and once more the
raft was on its voyage carrying the
bear and the rabbit.
Uncle Wiggily, as I have told you,
found a big piece of wreckage on

has brought to those Immediately con-
cerned and to millions of others, far out
weigh labor's mistakes.
Today, in normal times, a laboring
man works reasonable amount of hours.
He has time for leisure to enjoy with his
family, to improve himself or to dispose
of in any manner he pleases. Surely this
is far better than having him just a cog
in a machine who never stopped until he
wore out completely.
Maybe this is not why labor celebrates
on Monday, but to one who knew almost
at first hand, the drab, colorless, morbid
existence they once had, it appears to be
ample reason for celebrating.

Mr.. Longears.
That wouldn't do much good!"
laughed the Bear. But if we see
the Bad Chaps in their boat I'll do
something they won't like"
What will you do?" asked the
bunny gentleman.
I'll tell you after I do it, o.;
maybe I'll let you see me do it, -
spoke Mr.. Whitewash.
Then you had better get ready to
do it soon," said Uncle Wiggily, all
of sudden. For there they are
now, I think"
He pointed to an old boat coming
toward them. In it sat the Fox
and Bob Cat AS soon as the Bad
Chaps saw the raft with the bum

ward it much faster.
They don't see mel" whispered
the Polar Bear gentleman. I'll

wasn't afraid of the Bad Chaps
when Mr.. WhiteWash was with him.
Nearer and nearer came the boat
of the Bad Chaps They didn't
know Mr.. Whitewash was aboard
the raft.
"We1l catch Uncle Wiggily nowl"
said the Fox.
Sure we will" said the Bob Cat,
hoping he wouldn't get wet.
Then all of a sudden, when the
boat of the Bad Chaps was close
to the raft and Uncle Wiggily was
nearly caught, up jumped the Po-
lar Bear.
"Oh, I thought he was a cake of
ice" hoWled the Fox.

face.
"Ill make them scat" roared Mr.
Whitewash. With that he jumped
into the ocean and soon upset tbs
boat of the Bad Chaps SO they were
spilled out into the water. They got
all wet, especially the Bob Cat, anc

HITLER GROWING WEAK

Hitler's newest decree that German

Aryan, and must not even be one-tenth
Of one per cent Jewish. is of interest only
in that it shows the extreme lengths to
which he is willing to go in his thirst for
power
Art is like gold. 1t is where you find
it. 1t may be in the richest palace or the
meanest hovel. 1t knows no barrier of
race or creed. To condemn art, of any
variety, because of the artist. is ridicu-
lous. The height of Righteousness is
reached when the accident of birth is
taken into consideration as it applies to
the artist.
Hitler confesses that he can only hope
that Divine Providence will bless Ger
many with its own artists. Such an ad-
mission of weakness is alarming. He
certainly should get after Divine Provi-
dence and make it toe the mark.
One who can discern all, guide all and
regulate all, should not be stumped by
suci1 a condition.
Granted that many Jews devote them
selves to commercial pursuits, the race
has contributed its quota of artists whose
work will be remembered long after Hit

The Children'S Concert
Free to Youngsters; Adults May Get
- Tickets from Mrs. Wettach

Final arrangements and selec-
ton of the program for the
Childrens Concert to be given
by Guy Maier, November 20 in
the Hill Music hall, were COM
pleted at the recent business
meeting of the music depart
ment of the Community Club.
The choicesof program, THE
Journey to Bavaria and Aus
tria." includes piano works by
Mozart, Schubert, Brahms and
Strauss, and one hundred col
ored slides showing places and
events intimately connected with
the lives of these composers.
The second part of the program
will consist of the "krazy Kat
Ballet by John Alden Carpen-
ter.
For ten years Guy Maier's
concerts for young people have
been popular. They have been
called one of the most import
ant factors in America for
training future musical audi
ences. This, however, is far
from being the motive behind
them. Mr.. Maier's chief pur-
pose is to give his youthful audi
ences good time-to show
them that music can be fun. In
single program are combined
music, Illuminating pictures, and
vivid explanatory remarks
which show the eye what the
ear is hearing, given by bril-
liant pianist-commentator.
This concert is being given to
the children Of Chapel Hill and
Carrboro schools without cost.
1t is the gift of those adults who
buy the three hundred seats re-
served to finance the project
There are now only fifty tick
cts available, the others having
been sold in less than one week
