Girl Visitor Harkens Call
Of Wild african Country
Being Presented to King
and Queen Secondary
For Miss Fine.

Being presented at the Court of st.
James was only secondary thrill for
Miss Florence Fine, a veteran of the
African weld at 10.
Miss Fine practiced curtsies three
months before she made her bow to
the King and Queen Of England. Her
apprenticeship at big game hunting.
however, was much longer and twice
as thrilling.
In America to see the sights, follow
ing her long ocean voyage to London
last May, Miss Fine is homesick for
Johannesburg and the African back
country where she shot her first lion
and rhinoceros.
I've decided that's the only life
for me-" Miss Fine said. settling back
on a divan at 2748 Woodley place,
where she is visiting a cousin, Mrs.
Dorothy Cafritz. Big cities-London,
New York. Chicago-they're very ex-
citing. but I could never live in any
of them.
Perhaps it's because I was born
in Africa and never knew anything
else. And since / was IA my father
has been taking me to the back
country for the shooting season, every
year between June and August
the season is in full swing nowl"
Father Gold Miner.
Miss Fines father, S. NJ Fine, is a
gold miner and pioneer resident of
Johannesburg. An ardent big game
hunter. he trained his daughter to
ride and shoot from childhood so he
could take her along on his trips
inland.
She learned to shoot because it's
cruel to be a poor shot on the weld,
cruel and dangerous. My father is
much the better shot," Miss Fine said.
Il used to wound animals. but he
never failed to finish them of
quickly"
One of her most interesting ex-
land. where she and her father we're
guests of King Sabuza. an oxford
graduate with so wives and a posses
sion more cherished still-a cane pre-
sented by the Prince of Wales.
I'VE have a big American-made
sedan for our trips inland" Miss
Fine said. 1T has carried us over
thousands of miles of rough trail
and trackless weld. But this time 1T
broke down on the edge of Swaziland.
"A wheel had broken and it was
200 miles to the nearest telegraph
station. With a caravan of trailers
tackled on behind our car, we were
stuck, and badly stuck.
Then what should come buzzing
across the weld but a Chevrolet. A
native in European dress stepped out
He spoke better English than we did.
His chauffeur was wearing nothing
but a loin cloth.
Invited Guests of King.
I'VE learned he was King Sabuza
He invited us to be his guests while
he sent a messenger across the coun-
try to wire for supplies. He had his
subjects put on native dances in our
honor and even consented to pose for
a photograph, something he had re-
fused to do for the city newspapers. ="
On another occasion, in German
West Africa, Miss Fine, her father
and brother and their native helpers
almost starved Most of the space in
their three-automobile caravan was
taken up with ammunition, water
and hay for spreading in moraSses
where cars sink axle deep.
Thus their rations we're meager.
They had been assured the game was
plentiful. Expecting to live off the

MONEY WELL INVESTED

EEDERAL funds are being spent so lavishly
these days that an allotment of $4,000
hardly seems worth noticing Nevertheless,
the expenditure of that sum at the Michigan
College of Mines, at Houghton Mich, eventual
" may be worth untold millions to middle
western industry.
The college is using the money to under
take research in methods of using low-grade
iron ores. The rich Michigan iron mines, &C
cording to college experts, will be practically
depleted within twenty years
But even then they will contain billions
upon billions of tons Of low-grade ore, which,
under present methods of exploitation, can
not be mined proftably.
The Michigan experts hope to find way
in which this enormous store of ore will be-
come commercially available. If they do, that
$4,000 research fund will mean incalculable
sums to industry throughout the middle west

the bottom fell out Of things, and filed their
prospectuses with fragrant misrepresenta-
tons and concealnents.
It tells how foreign bonds we're issued
heller skelter, with the investors interests
completely overlooked, so that the Ameri-
can public was induced to shoulder mot only
the huge Indebtedness Of foreign industry,
now substantially in default, but also the
indebtedness of foreign governments.
And it adds, as a final cracker, that many
Of the abuses in investment banking arose
from the incompetence, negligence, ire
sponsibility or cupidity of individuals in the
profession"
All this to be sure, is ancient history. We
heard it all at the time the committee was
taking testimony. Why repeat it all now?
Because it is an indictment which we
must never forget. A few years ago these
money changers were posing as oracles and
seers. They told us what men were fit persons
to run the country and what men were not.
They made solemn announcements on
the issues of the day and advised us sagely
on governmental policies We listened to
them respectfully, and did as they suggested.
If we keep this whole story in mind we
shall be a less docile audience in the future
which will be a very good thing for US
indeed.

PLAYGROUND HOPES

XXTORD that the city park and recreation
w departments are considering establish
ment Of north side playground next year
viii be well received in the vicinity.
The city plans through an offer made by
George Marott, to take over lot on the west
side of Meridian street north of Thirty eighth
street.
The site, of course, will not be ideal to
every one on the north side who desires to
see establishment of a playground. But there
is no doubt but the playlot will benefit thou
sands and answer crying need.
1t is too late for action this year because
the grounds in the city will be closed Sept /.
But it is not too late for the municipality to
outline its program Of developing the ground
early next year.
Mr.. Marott is to be lauded for his offer.
Some time ago The Times suggested that a
real estate owner on the north side make the
park hoard proposal Mr.. Marott has done

ton now rests with the city. There can be

farm program on the principle Of voluntary
cooperation They preferred to make it profit
able for the farmer to cooperate, rather than
criminal for the farmer not TO cooperate. But
the cotton farmers and tobacco farmers, by or
gained pressure and through their repre-
sentatives in congress, forced the administra-
ton to accept the compulsory measures. The
farn1,4s believed that no other method could
insure a stable market.
Mr.. Fletcher is only doing his duty as the
opposition spokesman in condemning the adj
ministration for yielding to the pressure OF
these two organized ninorities. But he erred
in intimating that the cotton and tobacco
laws we're conceived by the brain trust.
The Republican chief landed another on the
chin when he contrasted Democratic prom
ises with Democratic performances in the mat
ter OF tariff reduction.
The Democratic party" said M. Fletcher,
has been in complete control of the law
making power for two sessions Of congress and
it has not reduced a single schedule Of the
much maligned tariff act Of 1890"
This is not entirely true. There was a
slight reduction in the Cuban sugar tariff. But
on the whole it is a fair Indictment to which
the administrations only answer is another
promise that it will do something through
reciprocity treaties.

GOVERNMENT LAWYERS

WITH Dean Justin Miller of Duke uni
w versity law school taking over New
Deal litigation, it is hoped that the govern
ment henceforth will be more aggressive in
its court battles.
Called unexpected to his cabinet position,
Attorney General Cummings perhaps didn't
have time to make careful selection of sub
ordinates. Democratic party spoilsmen took
advantage of him and stated the justice de-
partment in part with a group of political
deadheads who wouldn't even have been con-
sidered for the jobs had the late Senator Tom
Walsh lived to take charge. Apparently Mr..
Cummings has tried to weed out some of the
mcompetents
From the first it has been obvious that the
legal department has been one of the weak
links in the Roosevelt administration
Although NRA codes have been upheld in
80 per cent of the cases coming before federal
courts the major credit for these legal vic
tories goes to NRAs legal division under DON
aid Rickberg justice department lawyers
were outmaneuvered in preliminary court Skin
mishes in the celebrated Weirton steel case
and the Grief garment case at Baltimore
And their record in prosecuting oil code viola
tors and others has been none too good.
The interests trying to break the back of
the New Deal employ the best talent that
money can buy, and the government is at dis
tinct disadvantage when it has to depend
upon lawyers whose chief claim to fame is
party service.
Our government is entitled to the service
Of the best lawyers of the land, Others of
Dean Miller's caliber should be recruited.
