j. Edgar Hoover declines a
medal awarded to him as the
person doing the most toward
law enforcement in Washington,
and Ellis H. Parker brushes
aside his latest exploit in law
enforcement as just a simple
little piece of work. Master de-
tectives-these two-although
their spheres are widely sepa-
rated and they work along diff
ferent lines.
Hoover, lawyer, 38 years
old, tall and dark with all the
earmarkS of the average busi-
ness man and none of the
storybook sleuth, took over
William j. Burns's job in Wash
ington eight years ago as di-
rector of the Bureau of Investi-
CATION of the Department Of
Justice.
A native of Washington he
worked his way UP in the bu-
reau with law as a sideline,
and he has brought his Grim
inal-hunting department up to
a point of efficiency which is
hard to match anywhere.
Last year, alone, he and his
men handled $4,000 cases out
side of Washington, and in that
time since the kidnapping law
was enacted, has cleaned up %
out of "a major kidnapping cases
in the country.
"The Black Chamber" is the
name that the underworld has
for Hoover's organization, and
the criminals dread it more
than any other law force in
the country. They know that
Hoover has their number"
their fingerprints among a COL
lection of two million, and that
each branch of the bureau
throughout the country has It's
movie cameras to picture the
scene of a crime as well as it's
wire-tapping devices and micro
phones for use when needed.
They know, too. that each
month Hoover furnishes to law
enforcement officers "The Blue
Book of Crime" which lists the
names and information about
fugitive criminals and which
brings about the capture of so
a month and the Identification
of 300 others. He says little,
does this man Hoover-rarely
appearing in the public prints
but he works tireleSsly and so
do his men. His job is to see
that society gets the upper
hand over crime and he is
making quite a success of it.
Now to Ellis Parker who Off
cially has the rather obscure
title of chief of detectives Of
Burlington county, N. j.
A stout man of 60-odd years
with hard. brown hands and a
leathery face. he might wEll be
taken for a New Jersey farmer.
He has stayed down there be-
tween the Delaware River and
the Atlantic Ocean for 40 years,

Phones were ringing but none
seemed to know which ones to
answer.
In a far corner of the large
space was a pile of desks, chairs,
tables and file cabinets. One
male individual. cramped for
space, was quietly relaxing in a
chair perched atop and, as yet,
unScarred desk.
A trickle of persons demanded
applications for employment but
were informed that application
blanks had not been printed.
Stock boys were piling up
papers on which no words could
be imprinted because there
weren't enough typists. A group
of boys and girls were perched
atop a desk, however, enjoying
the stimulation of nicotine in
one form or another.
1t was just one of Uncle Sans
happy little families preparing
their working quarters.
As q matter Of fact, 1t was
merely a group Of employees

with their first housing prob
lem.
Handsome, humorous, able
and affluent Jim Moffett, in
cidentally, is solving his own
housing problem in Washington
by living on his magnificent
yacht "Bidou."
Local rental agents should
kick.
Here is a story on a man in
the Government. His name is
omitted for obvious reasons.
It seems that the official went
south, to Richmond, on what
purported to be official business.
Before he left town he gave
his wife the money for the rent.
Soon after his arrival in the Vir-
ginia city, however, he sent her
two. wires, both of which de-
clared his distraction at being
away, his affection for her, etc.
They also asked for most Of the
rent money.
She sent it.
A few days later he limped
into town and home.
And what a tale Of woe he
related. He had been robbed in
Richmond. had walked q hun
dred miles to another city on
his itinerary so as to keep his
job. ....
He had gone without food,
was weak and undernouriShed.
His wife listened patiently as
he related the sad story. His
tears coursed down his cheeks
as he told of his suffering.
When he concluded the pitt
full story his wife stepped over
as if to careSs and comfort him.
Instead she let fly a terrific
right hand that sent the under
nourished and emaciated huS-
band" to a corner for the
count of ten.
His wife cried:
"YOu are lying to me. 1t
was all right until you said you
had walked . hundred miles"

Bv Helen Rowland

When you are visiting one
woman and drinking her cock
tails, never make the foolish
mistake of trying to date up
any other woman you may meet
at her house. Those girls al
ways TELL!
Always play woman's game
and follow her lead. If she
wishes to leave the impression
that you are her special pro-
perty, don't get stage fright and
spoil the picture. She may be
only trying to get another mans
GOAT-not to get YOU.
Don't mix your Women-and
don't change cars" too quick
ly, too violently, too obviously or
too often. No woman likes to
feel that she is lone of a pro-
ceSsion"; and men with a Don
Juan reputation soon cease to
be invited to the best houses.
If you can't carry your
liquor" leave it in the glass.
The butler will enjoy it. Two

When President Roosevelt
gets back from his Atlantic
Pacific cruise, he will be urged
to go to the support of the
proposed Child Labor amend
ment to the Federal Consti-
tuition as the titular leader Of
the party in power.
When the prohibition repeal
amendment was before the
State legislatures for ratifica-
tion, Mr.. Roosevelt sent his
Postmaster General, Mr.. Farley,
who is also his chairman of the
Democratic National Commit
tee, into State after State to
urge ratification.
When ratification finally
came, the Administration
claimed a large share in the
The Washington times., 1934-07-26

insist that its ratification is
as much entitled to the ac-
tive support of the Administra-
ton as was the ratification OF
the prohibition repeal amend
ment. They argue further that
the leadership Of President
Roosevelt is all that is re-
quired to insure ratification
of this progressive amendment
between now and the next
presidential election in 1885.
Power to Regulate
The Child Labor amendment,
which passed Congress and was
submitted to the States for ratl-
fication in 1924, provides:
"That Congress shall have
power to limit, regulate and pro-
hibit the labor of persons under
Is years of age. The power of
the several States is unimpaired
by this article except that the
operation of state laws shall be
suspended to the extent neces"
sary to give effect to legislation
enacted by Congress"
Once this amendment is rati-
fled and becomes a part OF the
Federal Constitution, Congress
will be given the power to con-
troll by law the labor Of persons
under 11 years of age. Congress
can fix the conditions under
which such persons may be en-
ployed without injuring their
health and without depriving
them of that public education
which is the birthright of every
American under the Flag.
Before 1888. only six States
had ratified this propose
amendment. In 1888, IA addi-

and a caste in her eye. She may
not have the slightest sentlmen'
tai interest in you-but a Wo'
man never loses her vanity un'
til the last breath.
When invited for a day at
the country house, be sure to
leave your evening open. Your
hostess may expect you to stay
for dinner; so. don't leave her
up a tree, in order to rush back
for that date in town.
Concentrate most of your at
tention and enthusiasm on the
MOTHERS of the pretty gals.
Remember that it is they who
own the country houses, the
bungalows and the cabanaS-
and who do most of the inVit-
ing and entertaining.
Never, by any chance, let
your admiration for one woman
cause you to neglect another
woman. He'll hath no fury like
a woman who feels that she is
left out Of the picture. 4

cocktails may make you bright,
but three may make you just a
terrible problem and as welcome
at the next party as Dillinger.
Women run the social game
and they have a code which is
far more rigid and far older
than any under the NRA.
If you want to be among
those invited" it is not enough
to know how to click your heels
together, bow from the waist
and do the European hand-kiss.

tional States ratified it. The
legislative consent of 16 addi.
tional States must be obtained
before the process of ratification
is completed.
During the present year, rati-
fication has failed in one or
both branches of the following
States: New York, Kentucky,
Virginia, South Carolina, Texas,
Mississippi, Rhode Island, Massa.
chusetts and Louisiana.
But the fight for ratification
will be continued with renewed
vigor in all these States as a re-
suit of the temporary setback
which this wise and humane
movement for the protection Of
American youth from eXploita-
ton has suffered.
The child labor amendment is
strongly supported by "a ma
tional organizations. 1t has al
ready been ratified by the legis-
latures of the following States:
Arizona, Arkansas, California,
Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Maine,
Michigan, Minnesota. Montana,
New Hampshire, New Jersey,
North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma,
Oregon, Pennsylvania, Wash
ington, West Virginia, and Wis
conSin.
Perhaps in 1885
Enough legislatures will meet
in 1885 for ratification to be
completed in that year if the
forces that are fighting to pro-
tect American youth can count
upon the leadership of Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the assist
ance of his Administration.
There is nothing partisan
about this proposed amend
ment, nothing racial, nothing
sectional and nothing sectarian.
It was drafted by the great
Democratic Senator from Mon
tana who presided with such
fairness over the Democratic
National conventions of 1924
and 1882 and died on his way to
Washington to take his oath as
Attorney General in President
Roosevelt's Cabinet-the late
Thomas j. Walsh.
Assisting him in the drafting
of this amendment were George
Wharton Pepper, Republican
Senator from Pennsylvania, and
a representative committee OF
able lawyers.
Temporarily, child labor is
prohibited by codes covering the
greater part of industry. But
these codes can be modified.
They may be revoked. Congress
passed a child labor law more
than a decade ago which was
declared unconstitutional.
This made necessary the pro-
posed amendment to the Consti-
tuition in order that Congress
may have the power to subject
the employment of minors to
that legal regulation which will
give them the protection that
the American people wish them
to have and that is essential to
the future welfare of the nation.

About twenty years ago the ealousies and ntrgues Of
Europe brewed cauldron of hate into which few years
later America induced to jump
In that cauldron America scaded and it has not
yet been aole heal the wounds which it incurred as
result cf that ill-advised move.
Now the evidence is all too plain that Europe is again
at work on the cauldron of hate.

pulls the biggest sort of
~ an upset and trims East

game of the public high school
base ball championship series,
the Lincoln Parkers will be in
with the title by late tomorrow
evening.
Eastern has won all three of its
starts and triumph over Roosevelt,
which has dropped all three of its
series tests, would give the Lincoln

the flag
Should the Riders come through

In addition to his homer Wynne got
