The School Year
Washington Fortunate

The opening Of the school year Washington today finds the
city with much to be thankful for considering conditions which
prevail in many communities throughout the country
In sections schools will not open at ALL In others they
will open only for partme classes, and in others they will
operate a curtaled year.
In still others the teachers will be called upon with
out pay with only pitance in the way Of reef pay ad
vanced by the Federal relief agencies.
So that considering these conditions parents here
fortunate
There will be made for all the children Of
the city in the schools.
Because failure of the building program keep pace with
the increasing student enrolment there will be shifting
Of classes and altering of hours.
Because of curtaled salary appropriations there will be
somewhat fewer teachers and somewhat fewer supervisory
officials.
Despite these curtaments however nearly normal conditions
will prevail in the schools of the National Capital
We enter the school year with loyal intelligent and efficient
teaching force.
It's members Of course suffering from the pay reduction
but nconceivabe that they should let their personal diff
Culties affect their classroom duties.
In the Franklin School headquarters Washington corps
of trained educators and executives
They will insure that the children get the best possible
suits from the facilities at their disposal.
At this start of the year, Washington turns to the entire per-
sonne of the school system and with expression thanks
for service in the past wishes them another successful and
happy year.

It's Beginning to Work
Buy In September Drive Shows Results

Here is good of the buy in September drive It's
from Dun & Bradstreet's, We pass it to you.
Retail sales last week by department stores and speciality
shops between 10 and 40 cent higher than the
week year ago.
"RepOrts from all the country" the report
continues, "not only emphasize enlarged spending
pOUer, running into millions of dollars but the
tangible benefits under the protection of the Blue
Eagle and the rapid disappearance of suspense and
apprehension"
In the last twenty-five weeks approximately three million
persons have gone back to work.
Smaller merchants beginning to feel the benefits Of
this added employment and extra purchasing power.
Moreover the fear Of gu Of goods is being removed by
the extent of fall buying to date.
The report declares that inventories generally are still
incomplete and that sales being lost because wholesalers
in many instances have been unable their shipping
dates.
Signs point to higher prices in October.
For that reason, for other, Buying in September
is practical economy for the average family
The number Of dollars you have is important but what
they worth is also important
your dollar proves to be worth ten cents less next month
than it is in purchasing value you lose ten by
hanging it, and you gain ten cents by spending it.
That is why is not only patriotic but prudent aid
the recovery movement by judicious spending now.
Prudence and patriotism don't always go together.

hooves the people of this country to fall in step with them

French Granary

But Spain is done for along
the Africa coast. The job is
too big for her. Only the mill
tary power Of France can meet
the tireless resistance Of the
Berbers. France has a stake
in Morocco too great to let the
tribesmen balk her eventual
conquest of an ancient and fer.
tile land. Even now, with char
acteriStic French preparation
and longSight, she is engaged
in a 25-year program for the
complete pacification of Mo.
rocco. 1t has already cost her
untold millions of francs and
will cost her untold mil
lions more.
To the tourist Morocco is a
land of desert sands and
caravans and romantic, dark
eyed sheiks; of dervishes and
snake LharmerS and dancing
girls; of mosque and minarets
and the whole flavor of the
mysterious East. To France
Morocco is empire and security,
a granary and a vast reservoir
of man power.
And in the end the Berbers
must lose, short of a miracle;
lose as other brave owners of a
homeland have lost before the
resistless advance of the white
man-the white man and the
machines his peculiar genius
have placed in his hands. Paris
now informs the world that the
Specification" is accomplished
One wonders. The French
thought so as far back as Louis
Napoleon-.but the Riffs, beaten
one year, retreat to ride again.

Toward the success Of the
Roosevelt administration to
date no member of the Cabi-
net and no lesser official has
made a greater contribution
than stands to the credit Of
Maj. Gen. Douglas Macarthur,
the able chief of staff of the
United States Army.
Since Mr.. Roosevelt entered
the White House on the fourth
of last March, General Mac
Arthur is the only high rank
ing official of the Government
who has denied himself any
vacation in order that he might
be at his post of duty day in
and day out.
Under his leadership, the
general staff and the chiefs
Of branches have been united
upon a program for the first
time in many years.
Under his leadership, the Reg
ular Army has executed the
most difficult mobilization ever
attempted by this country in
time of peace. The result of this
mobilization not only saved the
Civilian Conservation corps
from failure but made its re-
cruitment of 100000 joble
Americans a great success.

The Human Side of the News
Riffs of Morocco Face Fate of American Indian
By EdUin C.. Hill

The Riffs are riding again in
"the war that never ends" the
endless struggle of the French
to Subdue the fierce Berber
tribesmen of the Moroccan
mountains and desert. The
casualty lists from across the
Mediterranean are causing more
than a little concern in Paris,
and in one Of the late lists
the name of Captain Mangin
appears among the slain.
In their last savage brush
with the hard-fighting, never
give-up horsemen of Morocco,
the French lost AZ killed and
So wounded before the regulars
and the Foreign Legion finally
beat back the hawklike raiders.
Four columns Of French in
fantry and cavalry, along with
artillery and a battalion of the
Foreign Legion, have been en-
gagged in the war of pacifica-
tion. Arrayed against them
were the fierce and fanatical
tribesmen, who have the ad-
vantage Of fighting on their
home grounds and of being in.
different to the blazing sun
and scarcity of water.

Greedy Group

These selfish servants Of special
privilege are now secretly
uniting to oppose at the next
Congress the modest program
for the rehabilitation of the
Army upon which the War De-
partment is united and to
which President Roosevelt is
giving his expert and earnest
attention.
This coming fight on General
Macarthur and his leadership
for the most effective national
defense at the least expense to
the taxpayers will not fool
President Roosevelt, according
to those who have closely fol-
lowed his public career. HIS
four years experience as Assist
ant Secretary of the Navy dur
ing the Great War, his success
full administration as governor
of the State of New York, and
his wide reading and profound
study of matters both military
and naval admirably equip him
to meet the attack which pork
barrel politicians are preparing
to make on General Mac
Arthur's leadership as chief Of
staff.
When Mr.. Roosevelt entered
the White House, one Of the
first things he did was to turn
a deaf ear to all proposals OF
pork-barrel politicians that he
replace General Macarthur as
chief Of staff. One of the next
things the President did was to
serve notice in the Cabinet that
all of his appointments and pro-
motions in the Army and Navy
would be made on the basis OF
service records and in the light
of military and naval recon-
mendationS and in utter diSre-
gard of political pressure.
BY their support of General
MacArthus as chief of staff
President Roosevelt and SeCre-
tary Dern have demonstrated
their appreciation of honest rec
concentrations and truthful in
formation submitted by a loyal
champion of the national de-
fense. They have not forgotten
the warning words Of the au-
thor of "OrdeaI by Battle::"
"AS we look back over our
cOuntry's history we find that
it was those men who told the
people the whole truth - or
what, at least they themselves
honestly believed to be the
whole truth-whO most often
succeeded in carrying their pro-
pOsals through. In these mat
tiers, which touch the very life
and soul Of the nation, all arti-
flee is out of place."

Fierce Tribesmen

The Berbers, or Riffs, are
we'll supplied with modern
rifles and ammunition, though
where they get them is a secret
which the French secret serv-
ice would give millions of
francs to know. Somehow and
in some way, interests that
have no love for the French
land guns on the coast, from
whence they are run into the
desert and into the mountain
retreats by means of fast camel
caravans. Even old rifles are
worth $50 apiece to the fight
ing Berbers and cartridges are
snapped up at SO cents each.
The little war which France
is stubbornly waging against a
proud and intractable race, a
race whose neck cannot bend
to the white mans yoke, is
much like the old Indian wars
of the American plains.
They cannot give up, remem-
bering their smashing defeat of
the Spaniards seven years ago,
when their one-time leader,
Abd-el-Krim, surprised the Span
ish general, Silvestre, in the
mountain passes and killed or
captured 10000 Spanish and
native troops, one the most
frightful defeats a white force
ever suffered at the hands of a
native enemy.

ployment manager. To the
contrary, she's young, charming
and smart herself-and likes
'em that way.
But surely she can find these
qualities ad lib in the annual

can. Pretty, poised and peppy-
they're all of that. Hepped up

Yes, they do NOT!

Mrs. Brooke tells you in her
article, September Girl" in the
Septe m ber GOOD HOUSE,
KEEPING. Listen:
"These Bachelors Of Arts
they come trooping from the
campuses every year, full up
with culture and rosy dreams OF
conquering those pinnacles OF
business hitherto graced solely
by male occupants. There is
nothing wrong with either their
ambition or their energy, but
there is one question which al
most always floors them. The
question is:
WHAT CAN YOU DO?'"
The answer to that question
is a brutal one. Every employer
knows it-usually to his pro-
found irritation.

years of her youth, plenty Of

MENT.
And whose fault Is it?
"The college's!" says Mrs.
Brooke.
"The college woman who
succeeds in business today owes
her Alma Mater very little
thanks. She is victim Of one
of the most perfect systems Of
unpreparedness and misguid-
ance ever devised.
"OUR FEMALE INSTITU-
TIONS OF HIGHER LEARN
ING, TWENTIETH CENTURY

WITHSTANDING, ARE STILL
TAKING GIRLS FOR A FOUR
YEAR RIDE AND THEN LET
TING THEM WALK-SOME-

"But," protests Janey with
an indignant wave of her diplo-
ma, "all that is just at first.
OF course a college girl makes
a slower start than the girl
who has always worked. But
doesn't she, with her trained
mind, forge ahead faster when
she once gets going?"
No, Janey; she doesn't. For,
even granting that college
courses produce trained minds,
which is open to much argu-
ment, what business needs in
its working girls isn't The
trained mind but the trained
fist-and a well-weathered eye.
An eye that knows what it's
all about, not in the world Of
Campus Cut-ups but out in the
main stream. A fist that can
wallop a typewriter and swing
a shorthand pad.
And these things don't happen
spontaneously.
It takes months of hard drill
ing in a business college to
learn them; months or years Of
practical experience in offices
to develop them into profi-
table technique.
"But if a girl is really awfully
bright and adaptable, won't her
employer be willing to give her
a chance even if she hasn't had
office training?" cries Janey,
still unconvinced.
"He might have once, but no
longer" says Mrs. Brooke, add
ing:
