Jean Martineau, the de-
butante daughter of Mrs.
Cyril F. Martineau, of Lon
don, who was introduced to
society at the Autumn Ball
at Tuxedo Park is spending
the early season in New York
with her maternal grand
mother, Mrs. Price Collier.
She will be guest at the
White House during the holi-
days and in addition to the
dance the Roosevelt boys are
to give at which she and Bar
bara Cushing will be the hon.
or guests, several other love-
ly parties are being planned
for her. She and her mother
will return abroad in Jan
uary.
Despite the fact that Miss
Doris Duke spends little time
in North Carolina, where the
fabulous Duke fortune was
amassed in the tobacco bust
ness, she evidently retains a
soft spot in her heart for the
land of the Tarheels.
At a North Carolina alum
nj meeting a week or so ago,
it was disclosed that Miss
Duke had a few months ago
given 100000 to the First
Methodist Church at Char
lotte. At the time this church
started to build its new edi-
flee several years ago, the
late Mr.. James B. Duke
promised the minister of the
church a substantial contri-
button; but before the time
for the allotted donation ar
rived, Mr.. Duke had died.

the guard caught the valise from
the protesting small gentleman with
one hand, and the hat-box with the
other, and, forthwith, vanished.
Hereupon the fusSy gentleman,
redder of face, and more angry than
ever, clambered to the roof, still
loudly protesting; all of which
seemed entirely lost upon Mottle-
face, who, taking up the reins and
settling his feet against the dash
board, winked a solemn, owl-like eye
at Barnabas sitting beside him, and
carolled a song in husky voice,
frequently interrupting himself to
admonish the ostlers, in this wise:

oh! SIGH a sweet loud voice, sir,
You could ear 'er all up Pealyment street.
And as far as Charing Cross, sir.
"All aboard, all aboard for Lon
don!" roars the guard, and roaring,
swings himself up into the boot.
"All right being?" cries Mottle-
face.
"All right, Joel" sings the guard.
"Then-leggo, there!" cries Mot
tle-face.
Back spring the hostlers, forward
leap the four quivering horses, their
straining hoofs beating out showers
of sparks from the cobbles; the
coach lurches forward and is off,
amid waving of hats and pocket
handkerchiefs, and Barnabas, cast
ing a farewell glance around, is i'm
mediately fixed by the gaze of the
white Lion,' as inquiring of eye
and interrogatory of tail is ever.
Tall or short? Dark or fair?
Will she kiss you-next time-will
she, will she? Will she even be
glad to see you again-will she, now
will she?"
Whereupon Barnabas must needs
become profoundly thoughtful all at
once.
Now wonder?" said he to him
self.
Long before the lights of the
White Lion had vanished behind
them, the guard blows a sudden
fanfare on the horn, such a blast as
goes echoing merely far and wide,
and brings folk running to open
doors and lighted windows to catch
a glimpse of the London mail ere
it vanishes into the night; and So
almost while the CHEEKY notes ring
upon the air, Tenterden is behind
them, and they are bowling along
the highway into the open country
beyond.
A wonderful country this, familiar
and yet wholly new; a nightmare
world where ghosts and COLLINS fit
under dying moon; where hedge
and tree become monsters crouched
to spring, or lift knotted arms to
smite; while in the gloom of woods
beyond, unimagined horrors Turk.

Workers Families Starved For Milk; Get
Only A Quarter Of What They Should

WASHINGTON. OPP Work
ers' children in West Virginia cities
get only about one-fourth as much
fresh milk as it needed to keep them
healthy. Figures released July Is by
DR.. Fred c. Howe, consumers counsel
of the Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration shows that the average
daily mount of milk purchased by
families with school children il
Charleston, Wheeling and Clarksburg
w. Va, is half a pint or less. An ade-
quate diet calls for Ia pints to a
quart of milk daily. Figures are not
yet available by income groups foi
these cities, but other parts OF the sur
Ivey have shown, as might be expected
that milk consumption is below the
average in the low income OF workers
groups.
The AAA report comments on the
very small amount Of fresh milk pur-
chased by more than 90 per cent o.
the families surveyed in each city
Most Of the families" it says, use
more evaporated milk than the ma.
tional average, but the total amount
of fresh milk and evaporated mill
combined which they purchase is shown
too be very low in comparison witt
the accepted nutrition standards. The
food value of a large can of evapo-
rated milk-l4H ounces to a cans
almost IS per cent less than the fooC
value of a quart OF fresh milk"
The figures are some of those gath
cred through a national survey by clul
women under DR.. Howe's direction
covering o. cities. Only families witt
children in school were asked for in.

The daily amount of fresh milk pur-
chased by Charleston families inves-
tigated is about four-tenths of a PIN
for each person; in Wheeling, a little
more than one half pint; and if
Clarksburg, about n half pint.
Considered in terms of food value

chases OF fresh milk and evaporateC

ginia families buy on the average are
much below even the minimum stand.

These diets were planned with regarC

Wings Over Washington
By LEN DE CAUX

will
the new National Labor Relations
Board amount to? One guess is still
just about as good as another, for the
board has started out by being mighty
non-committal. Admittedly it has
wide powers to dea with violations
of Section 7 GAY of the National In
dustrial Recovery Act" But how ag-
gressive will it be in welding these
powers? What will be its relations
with code labor boards and special
boards appointed by the president?
And how much use will it make Of its
powers Of general mediation?
So
AT the boards first press conference,
Chairman Lloyd Garrison either didn't
know the answers or was to cagy to
announce them. What he did say,
however, was that this board had no SUI
pervisory powers over such boards as
those for the steel and longeshore-
mems disputes, but only Limited
power to review certain decisions >
that it was not a parent board" in
any sense, but a sort Of quasi-court to
pass on alleged violations Of Section 7
(a)"; and that it had no coercive
powers" As to mediation in labor dis
putes not involving Section 7 (a), Gar
rison said that was a matter OF policy
upon which the board had not yet
decided.
While guesses are still in order, we'll
make ours. 1t is that this will not be
a big stick" board. To deal with big
strike situations, the president is likely
to appoint special boards consisting OF
more prominent persons, best fitted in
each particular case to %cajole, maneu-
yer, threaten or force the workers
back to the job. In line with the
scholarly and specialist character OF
its members, the National Labor Re-
lations Board is likely Il find its main
function in establishing a body OF law,
as it were, for dealing with labor dis
putes.
Those who take too seriously adj
ministration propaganda to the effect
that such boards are designed to make
employers grant labor its rights, may
be interested in some recent %canvasses
of employers opinions on the subject.
A QUESTIONABLE sent put before the
new board was established, showed
that a large majority OF the answering
employers favored just such an i'm
partial" government-appointed board
as was established-only they wanted
it to have more decisive powers Of ar
bitration than the present board pos
%sesses.
T.
This may seem surprising in face OF
the declared opposition OF some big
employers organizations to such
boards as the old National
Labor Board or that proposed in the
Wagner bill. But these employers
didn't like labor organizations being
represented on the old board, as well
as their W kind and in general, en-
ployers prefer to be left to handle
their" workers in their own way. 1t
does not mean that they won't vel
come a system Of boards such as may
