WHY BE A HOLY FRIGHT?

Although like 'em plump I do not subscribe to the common idea that fat folk are naturally good natured and thin folk crabid. In fact the flights are generally amiable enough and often quite cheerful souls and often quite cheerful souls. It is only that you are constantly mined to handle them carefully, they're so fragile, and from that is an easy step to feeling sorry for the poor things. Perhaps a contributin gactor of the common notion about the obese being such gentle, easy-going eggs

NEW YORK, Jan. 18 GNS0.
Clarence Darrow, a trifle grayer,
a trifle more stopped than when
New York last saw him, leaned
comfortably back in his chair
today, hooked his thumbs on his
exposed SuSpenderS, and said
fervently that he hoped he
wouldn't go to heaven when he
died. He said:
"Of course there isn't much
danger of it. But. just the
same, from all I've heard about
heaven, I'd hate to go there"
Darrow was questioned about
his debate with DR.. John Hayes
Holmes tomorrow on Can Civ
ilization Be Saved?" He was
asked:
"Are you taking the affirma-
tive or negative Side?"
He replied:
"Darned il I know. 1t doesn't
make any difference. There
isn't any civilization, anyway"
He was asked:
"Is there any danger of re-
ligion breaking DOWN."
He replied:
81 hope so. It's about time.
The ignorance that religion
breeds is appalling"

WASHINGTON, June IL. (UP)
The unofficial text Of the
barrow boards second report, a
new attack on NRA oppression
of small business, was revealed
today generally confirming ex-
elusive United Press dispatches
of last Saturday.
The second barrow report also
charged that the retail code was
altered after it had been APP
proved by the industry and be-
fore it was submitted to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for his signature.
The, document covers 13 more
codes. and while hardly as ex-
coriating as the first report, lev
les its strongest criticism against
the retail trade code.
Other codes covered are petro-
leum bedding, boot and shes,
cement, coffee, electrical manu-
featuring. lumber. merchandise
warehousing, plumbing fixtures.
retail food and grocery, en-
broidery and lead pencils.
Principal criticisms were:
Trade associations controlled
! by large firms dominate code
authorities. ,. ,s.~
Production control measures
throttle small units and raise
prices.
Basing point systems raise
prices and hamper small compe-
tition.
Lumber and cement codes
hamper recovery through elimi-
nation of competitive bidding
and high prices.
Complaints against the electri-
cal manufacturing, embroidery
and warehousing codes were dis
missed as based on misunder-
standings.
The board took sarcastic no
tice Of the recent NRA order re-
garding price-fiHing and continu-
ed its attack on the administra-
ton of General Hugh s. johnson.
Responsibility for "sinister
charges" in the retail trade code
was placed under johnson and
the board recommended "most
emphatically that all codes, once
adopted. should be free from
left-handed manipulations with
out authority and without notice,
unless it is desired to cast the
whole experiment of national re-
covery act into the hands of ir-
responsible dictatorship"
The changing Of provisions of
the retail code after it's appro-
val by the industry and before
submission to the president was
characterized as "an arbitrary
exercise of power that seems to
demand searching inquiry on even
graver grounds than those of
economic justice"

In treatment of cancer by ra-

consider the effect of the radium
or X-rays on both the cancer and
surrounding tissue, so that frac-

more useful than one large dose
except in the case of superficial

He said the technique had been
