z L|NDBERGHS
CONSIDER HOP
To MOSCOW

STOCKHOLM, Sept. 1s d.N.S).
Moved by a visit to the home Of
his ancestors, Col. Charles A. Lind
bergh today went forward with
plans which may culminate in a
flight to Moscow to gather data
on commercial aviation there.
It was learned that Colonel and
Mrs. Lindbergh are planning to
make the flight as an expansion
OF their survey work in North At
lantic skyways, which brought
them by stages across the ocean
by plane,
Last night the colonel and his
wife visited Gaardloesa in Skase,
birthplace Of the airman's father.
The townspeople gave them a
hearty reception. The fliers were
escorted to an old farm where
Llndbergh's grandfather once
lived.
Anton Anderson, whom the
Lindberghs visited, gave the Amer
lean a pair of spectacles which
Lindy's grandfather hao presented
to Anderson.
The Lindberghs also drove to
Borrby to visit the colonel's nCar-
est relative in Sweden, Berta
SvenSson, a cousin.
News Of the proposed Russian
flight came to light after Lind
bergh visited the Soviet legation
here to obtain a. passport.

HEARST DAY DUE
At CHICAGO FAIR
ON OCTOBER |

CHICAGO, Sept. II (U.S0.-In
recognition of the part the
Hearst newspapers have played in
making Century of Progress"
the outstanding word fair of
all time, Rufus C. Dawes, presi-
dent Of the fair, announced to-
day that Sunday, october /, will
be designated as William Ran.
dolph Hearst Day in honor of the
publisher.
President Dawes suggested the
Hearst Day program to the pub
Usher in a letter sent to him at
San Simeon, Calf, three days
ago. In a telegraphic reply re-
ceived by the president of the
Fair today, Mr.. Hearst acknowl-
edged the signal honor" be-
slowed upon him and said he
would be pleased to permit the
fair to designate October / as
William Randolph Hearst Day.
Cooperation Cited
In his letter to Mr.. Hearst
Dawes said:
"The hearty cooperation Of
the Herald and Examiner and
the Chicago American in max
ing A Century Of Progress the
outstanding word fair Of all
time, calls for an expression
from us Of our deep apprecia.
tiOn.
1--WE are very anxious in some
way to show that appreciation
and we suggest that October
be declared william Randolph
Hearst Day at A Century Of
Progress. This will give us an
opportunity to join with you in
celebrating A Century of Prog
reSS and your part in it.
"Thank you again for the
many kindnesses that you have
extended to u.s."
Swim to be Held
October l is the date of the first
annual William Randolph Hearst
marathon swim at the fair in
which the publisher will award
$4,000 in prizes.
Mr.. Hearst and his Chicago
newspapers also sponsored the an
nual gold cup regatta in the
World Fair lagoon last month,
which drew the largest Sunday
crowd at the fair up to that time.
The national convention of the
American Legion opens in Chicago
October / and the swimming
marathon along the lake front is
regarded as a splendid salute for
the war veterans as they convene
in Chicago.
The nations leading amateur
and professional swimmers are en-
tering the swimming events, chief
of which is the 15-mile marathon
for an $500 prize.

Woman Lawyer Finds Wives Tolerate
Mans Faults Nowadays If He Has Job
Hard Times Seem to
Calm Matrimony's
Rougher Seas

Hard times have been the
salvation of many a marriage,
according to Miss Dora Palkin,
Washington lawyer.
Miss Palkin says she has found
of late that married couples are
becoming more tolerant of each
others weaknesses. It takes a
real grievance to send either
husband or wife to court.
Maybe, thinks Miss Palkin, 1t
is because the little things seem
less important these days.
The housewife who is having a
hard time to make her budget
balance finds she hasn't the time
nor energy to worry over her
husbands heretofore irritating
habit of singing operate Selec-
tionS, off key, in the bathtub.
Two Can Live, Etc.
Says Miss Palkin:
eyes, I knew a woman who
got a divorce over that very
thing. She was musical and
she left her bridegroom Of less
than q year because he just
would sing in his bath"
Even real grievances are being
overlooked these days. That, says
Miss Palkin, is largely due to
the grim fact that two can live
cheaper than one. And that ali
mony is seldom more than a third
of the ex-husband's income.
A third of the average wage
earner's income these days isn't
sufficient to keep a divorcee in
even the necessities of life. And
when there are children to be
considered it is out of the cues
ton.
Miss Palkin says further:
"WOmen come to me who
have every reason in the world
to seek a divorce. But, they
tell me, what's the use? They
can't get jobs themselves and
it would be impossible to sup
port themselves and their chill
dren on a portion of their hus-
bands salary"
Such cases, she believes, will
eventually end in the courts. Miss
Palkin holds with the theory
that "you can't make a good
omelette with bad eggs." The
philandering husband or wife, for
example, will continue to phi
lander until the end of the chap
ter.

BACK To FARM
MOVE GAINING
IN SOUTH
BY JAMES r. MCCARTHY
Copyright. 1898. BY Information
News Service


MEM PHIS, Tenn, Oct. 4
NN.S0.-This is a city bigger
than its population, bigger even
than all the boasts Of the cham
Der Of commerce might suggest.
1t is in the heart Of cotton and
humber.
But it doesn't mean anything to
Mrs. Read. She's going back 60
the farm.
Mrs. Read runs what she calls
Q genteel rooming house. Her
roomers are guests" At the sug-
gestion Of friend 1 went there
because it was conveniently To-
cated-and inexpensive.
The reader will have to blame
Mrs. Read for my failure to learn
more about lumber codes and gin
codes Cotton gin. Of courSe).
Gains Opposed
c. o. Moser, of New Orleans,
representing 250,000 farmers
through the American Cotton Co
operative Association, opposed an
increase in ginning prices and in
the wage scale of unSkilled labor
at gins-because all this would be
passed on to the farmer and the
consumer.
AS to lumber, I began to learn
that Memphis as a sort of clear
ing house for all hardwood lum-
Der production in the Southern
and Appalachian regions and that
people in the mills here who were
once getting only cents an hour
now get "a cents an hour.
All this fell on deaf ears, so
far as Mrs. Read was concerned.
Until 20 years ago she and her
husband had farm near Hazel
hurst, Miss. They tired Of it.
They wanted the city.
They came to Memphis finally
and settled down to a routine
they found much harder and
duller than that of the farm.
But even as long ago as 1925
Mrs. Read began to suspect that
U11Cy 1IdN L1ldAC ~ 4AA1oVohO' NAAS
didn't even want to think of it.
Then came 1929-and the years
after. They were extremely hard
years for Mrs. Read.
Employment Fails
But she saved as much of the
family income as possible and
waited. Last January her hus-
hand came home without job.
Then the lumber code came
along, and Mr.. Read got a full
time job. But Mrs. Read had
made up her mind-and her hus-
bands. The two are going back
to Hazleton. They have a little
farm all ready for them.
Mrs. Read thinks that the city,
20 far as she is concerned, is
treacherous. You have a job one
minute and you are out Of work
another.
So it's back to the farm for the
Reads. But the significant thing
about it is that Mrs. Read is not
the only one. There are, I learn,
thousands of families in this part
of the country that are preparing
10 migrate back to the farm.
