She had brought in the morning
paper, and laid it at Ken's place.
Usually he took . glance ut the
front page, another at the sports
section, then pushed it aside. To-
day he propped it up in front Of
him, read while he ate.
There was something husbandly

Eliminate Sums;
Make Work

Slightly more than $4,000 Of
government money Is going to 60 into
q big slum elimination project in New
York's congested lower east side. A
loan recently approved at Washing
ton will make possible the destruction
Of several blocks of the worst Of New
York's tenements, which will be re-
placed by model apartment buildings
offering good housing to poor people
at price they can afford to pay.
There never was more opportune
time for such projects than the pres
ent. Organized labor and the ad-
ministration at Washington are dis
cussing q bond issue OF billions of dol
lars to make work; this New York
scheme is Of type which every siz-
able city In the country could profita-
bly, copy.
Consider the following descriptions
Of the buildings which are to be re-
placed:
THE buildings to be razed are for
the most part Of five and six-story
walk-up type, ranging from SO to ap-
proximately 100 years in age. It is
necessary In most Of the buildings for
tenants to obtain drinking and SAM
tary water from faucets in the court
in the rear of the buildings.
Water and coal must be carried
several flights Of stairs to living quar-
tiers. Streets and courts are mere
slots between buildings. and sunlight
sometimes never is known to jewellers
in the section
This section, clearly, Is something
special in the way of slums. But it
would be hard to name q large city
in the nation in which tenements
nearly as bad could not be found
very easily: and 1t is hard to think
OF . reason why all Of these cities
should not plan on slum elimination
programs Of equal magnitude for the
immediate future.

Friendly Hint To Broadway
IN. Y. World.Telegram)

We hope Broadway will broaden its
outlook on the beverage situation.
Return Of beer, with repeal Of the
Eighteenth Amendment still in the
balance. involves an area and an issue
far bigger than the celebrated and
celebrating Times Square district.
Fourteen years ago Broadway, look
ing only at itself, said prohibition
couldn't happen" When prohibition
did happen Broadway said it couldn't
last" But It did last-thirteen years.
These thirteen years should have
taught Broadway that there is quite
9 lot Of the country beyond the North
River and Jersey City.
Thirteen years should also have
taught Broadway that views and votes
IN this great beyond" CAN seriously
AFFECT the habits, pleasures and free
dom OF even Broadway itself.
We don't ask Broadway to turn
Puritan or to extinguish its natural
brtllancc and blitheness. But we do
ask It to use its intelligence and be
sensible enough to see that this Is no
time to crafty the prohibitionists
With excess or disorder that they can
use to turn other states against re-
peal.
The brewers have learned some.
thing In those thirteen years. The
New York byewertes Get an excellent
example. We think. In refusing to re.
lease beer before the legal time, or
even early enough to encourage night
orgies. This shows 3 new sense Of
responsibility on the part Of the IL
quor interests. We hope It will con-
tinue long after the Eighteenth
Amendment has been ousted by the
twenty first.
Meanwhile the more the return Of

HIT THE HAY
Reader asks how to stop her little
granddaughter from crying and fight
ing against being put to bed nights.
The child is very restless when she
Is In bed, waking half dozen times
In the night. She whines and talks .
good deal in her sleep. She Is two
years and five months old. Her
mother puts her to bed every -.
All, complications begin! Not UNI

about the effect Of too many cooks

Mother puts the child to bed every
afternoon, but the child plays and
will not 60 to sleep, though she Is
kept in bed over an hour every day.
She has never been q very sound
sleeper. Her health seems good, as
she is never Ill. Now here comes
a strange remark. Grandma says:
They live near Yuma, SO 1t isn't so
damp as it is here" Yuma, you may
or may not know, Is a hot sun
drenched point where the Colorado
river flows between California and
Arizona to enter Mexico. Here" IS
a point on the Pacific shore between
Los Angeles and San Diego. When
Grandma opines that Yuma Is not SO
damp as San Diego or La Jolla or
Long Beach she isn't offending the
fair name Of these latter places any.
Indeed that Is the one big disap-
pointment OF Southern California. No
one ever catches cold in Southern
California, yet the population-08.6
per cent immigrants from the United
States and Prospective States to the
north-betrays greater fear OF imag-
mary harm from cold air than DO
people who are daily exposed to real
cold and dampness.
Whatever dampnes6 may have 70

explain. Perhaps she put that In Just

STATUS0F WORKERS
TO Be UP TO M'CARL
Whether They Retain Grade
or Are New" Employees
Proves Puzzle.

With some $4,000 Federal employees
due to be dropped from the rolls and
Immediately reappointed in an extraor-
dinary shake-up Of agencies on August
10, Controller General McCarl has been
called ON to decide the puzzlins status
of the affected employees.
The biggest question involved In the
drastic reorganization, from the stand
point Of the employees, Is whether those
who are reappointed in this queer "off
again, on again" transaction will re-
tain their present grades and salaries
or suffer reduction to entrance grades
as new employees"
The reorganization. provided for In
the special executive order sent to Con-
gress on the fnapday Of the special
session, June 10 last, affects nearly q
score Of Federal agencies, chief among
wh1ch are the Bureau Of Internal Reve-
nue., the Bureau Of Investigation Of the
department. OF Justice and the Bureau
Of Prohibition.
Joker in Order.
A so-called "joker" in the order the
significance of which did not at first
dawn on officials Of the involved units,
provides for a wholesale separation
from the service of all personnel of
agencies in any way embraced in the
reallgnment, with authority for re-
employment Of as many of the dis
charged men and women as NAV be
needed.
On casual reading of the order II
was assumed the separation provision
applied only to agencies abolished
| under the order-such as the Bureau
| OF Prohibition-bu a careful study OF
the clause disclosed that it covered
also bureaus which were due to Absorb
| the disappearing agencies-such as the
| huge Internal Revenue Bureau with its
| 10000 employees and the United States
| Bureau Of Investigation, which has
| about TOO employees The Prohibition
Bureau, which is to be divided be-
tween the Internal Revenue and In
vestigation Bureaus, has about 1,200
| employees.
Apparently not even the heads Of
the absorbing agencies are exempted
under the order, which would mean
| that just few weeks after appointing
