High Court HOIleSick
For Old Quarters

Justices Sutherland and Rob
erts, who maintained offices in
the Capitol, alone have occupied
their offices in the new building
for daily work. Others may move
In later.
One Of the reasons for erection
of the new building was the fact
that Senators and Representatives
whitfield away" the office space
Of the justices in the Capitol. II
a justice died, one branch Of Con-
gress would seize the space.
Before Congress voted funds for
the new building, the court voted
five to four, in favor Of the idea.
Friendship fot the late Chief Jus
tice Taft and q belief that justices
in the future might desire more
office space was said to have mo-
tivated some justices.
The new building has never
been dedicated, and probably
never win be. Thus far the court
has turned thumbs down on dedi-
cation exercises.

ADDRESSED
BY GOLDEN

Despite import quotas and cen
sorship, American film producers
may rest assured they will retain
q substantial portion Of foreign
movie markets, the Society OF
Motion Picture Engineers, in con-
vention at the Wardman Park
Hotel, was told today by Nathan
D. Golden, chief of the motion
picture unit Of the picture divi-
sion of the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce.
Pointing to their high enter
tainment value and broad appeal,
Mr.. Golden asserted:
"Our American quality films
win never be subm merged

Work Of the National Archives
In duplicating voluminous records
through the use Of microphotog-
raphy was outlined before the
convention by Capt. John G.
Bradley, Of the Division Of Mo
ton Pictures and Sound Record
ings Of the Archives Department.
The advantage Of employing
motion picture film for the sake
Of preserving storage space, he
explained, may be seen from the
fact that a 300-page book, through
microphotography, can be reduced
to a film s1a by II inches in
size.
Recording of current events by
motion pictures was seen by Cap
tain Bradley as Of inestimable
value. He said:
''What would we not give
new to see the gaunt figure Of
Abraham Lincoln and hear his
sOlen voice as he delivered the

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Oct. 23.
Two innovations marked the open
ing of the Anne Arundel County
Circuit Court yesterday when
Judge Linwood L. Clark permitted
the taking Of flashlight photo
graphs in the courtroom and the
first Negro to sit on a county
grand jury was selected.
The Negro was william Jack
son. Judge Clark had the photo
graphs taken as he opened court.
This Is the first full term at which
he has presided.
There were 30 civil cases on the
docket and nine criminal appeals
to be heard as the grand jury went
into session. In his charge to the
jurors, Judge Clark urged them to
ignore innocent gambling and con.
centrate on commercial gaming,
whether by use Of machines or
otherwise.
Gambling, where the profits go
to churches, schools, fire COM
panieS or charity, he declared not
worth Investigation.

The Supreme Court, unlike
most people who move into a
new house, is not entirely happy
over its 10 million-dollar marble
palace.
This was revealed today by
friends of a justice who indicated
that even the Nations highest
legal tribunal is almost over
whelmed by the grandeur of the
new building.
Some of the justices, 1t Is said,
pine for the simplicity Of the
historic court room in the
Capitol. Despite the fact that
elaborate offices are provided
for the nine justices in the new
building, they continue to do
most Of their work in their
homes. There they can work
until midnight, or arise in the
early hours of morning to read
the hundreds of legal documents
confronting them.

MACHINE
F. RAID TIPPED

MARTINSBURG, W. Va, Oct.
23.-AS the result Of an extended
raid covering Berkeley, Morgan
and jefferson counties, State po
lice confiscated 16 slot machines
and cited the proprietors to ap.
pear before magistrates, despite
a "tip-off" on the raid.
Dozens Of other machines we're
known by the officers to have
been In operation at other estab-
lishments, but had been removed
before the troopers paid tn cir
visit. Seven of these alleged vio-
lators were cited to appear before
a magistrate just as though a ma
chine had been found.
Local State police headquarters
remained puzzled as to the source
of a "tip-off" that the raids were
contemplated and which fruS-
trated the seizure of dozens OF
other machines.

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn

If you are troubled with corns or cali
louses. do not run the risk Of blood poi.
son by pairing them. Statistics show
that many infections have occurred from
this seemingly innocent practice Of par
ing corns.
Simply 60 to your druggist and get
few cents worth OF Ice-Mint, rub q lit
tie on any painful corn or callous. Im-
mediately the pain will disappear and
in a short time the corn or callous will
loosen and lift off easily with the fin
gers-root and all-leaving the sur
rounding skin in a healthy normal con-
dition.
This, together with the fact that Ice
Mint overcomes such affections as sore,
tired, aching puffed or burning feet and
makes them cool, easy and comfortable,
il probably responsible for the hearty
endorsement given it by druggists.
To rid ones feet of every hard corn,
soft corn, corn between the toes or pain
full caIlouses in such q pleasant and safe
way, makes it seem the height Of folly
for anyone to pare q corn and people
are warned to stop It

EASTER GOWNS Add To EVENING ~GLAMOR
Tailored Theme Gives Way To AIlming Feminine Lines
By NEA Service

New York. - When the candles are lighted, and the orchestra be- gins its new spring songs you will find a dress-up challenge in the musio's motif. You may be slim and smart and slightly mannish in your daily tailleurs if you wish, but you must go glamorous at night!
 Your spirits can't siyrocket among the stars unless you know that you are ultra-intriguing in a purely feminine manner. Such things as flaring trains chest revers that don't mind taking up space, voluminous skirts, tiny waistlines, tulle ruffles, and hems that swish back gently are adding drama to the evening gowns that you will wear when you go places on spring and summer nights.
 Prints in Greatest Number
 Prints are the most highly fa- vored for summer evening frocks. Black, if it is lace or tulle, is pop ular, also. The dusty pastels are able to take plenty of social tricks. If you want to help TO- nance along a little bit, occasion ally bowl over the man on whom you are concentrating by wearing a brilliant, sparkling color. Red or golden yellow, for instance.
 If you can get away with white without looking as though you are dressed for Children's Day by all means wear it as often as you can.
 An evening frock which will make you shine among the pastel ladies comes in bright, crisp red crepe. The bodice features un- usual cutout effects, the back is cut low at the waistline and an ornament of rhinestones and crys- tai adds touch of brilliance to the throat.
 Even Cinderella knew that she couldn't have good time at the princess party if her clothes were not glamorous. The couturiers of the present season are recog- nizing that Cinderella followed a universal rule. To be successful. an evening frock must be blest with double allure.

PARIS STYLES
By MARY FENTRESS

Paris (UP)-Seldom has any one fabric made such inroads on the fashion market as this new Irisk linen called Spiralspun.
 The reason, of course, is because there is apparently nothing you can name that isn't being made of it, starting with corsets and ending with hats and shoes!
 Washable, unshrinkable and un- rinkleable-that's quite a tri- umph for any material, even in this daly of machinery that can take kinks out of or put them into most anything.
 There is new waterproof wool too, light as can be in weight, and found to be so practical that the Municipality of Paris is mak- ing the capes for all her police. men out of it. Big dressmaking houses use the same fabric for some of their choicest models, and what joy to be able to be smart and comfortable at the same time. Of course, the minions of the law have theirs in navy blue, but you can have yours in anything from sky pink to jet black.
 l Chintzes in gay bright colors- flora and fauna patterns-are be- ing used for almost everything now except curtains, which was once about the only place we found it. Little chintz jackets and spring dresses by the half-dozen in our most discriminating wardrobes, with accessories in solid color bringing out the most dominant shade or the timidest tint in the print of the frock.

PARENT AND CHILD STAGE TRAGIC BATTLE OF WILLS.

TWO mothers were talking.
 q never let the smallest thing pass," said one. T know that If let Billy come out ahead once the next time will be harder"
 "Oh, I do," disagreed the other. "If I boss Teddy too much it seem to pile up in him, and know there I is a day of real reckoning ahead somewhere when he'd going to boil over and get the whole business out of his system" .
 Two grandmothers met one Sum- day on the common battle ground, the house of their married chill dren.
 Little Chris woke up from his nap and was dressed to so out and play. But little Chris wanted to wear his new shoes. His mama said, no, he might get in the mud or something and anyway his old ones were good enough to ride his velocipede. Then little Chris baw- led like young cafe with a burr in it's ear.
 Results of Forcing. Grandma Smith said, Clara, he needs a good spanking. never let his father act like that" On went the old shoes by main force and many smacks. Chris went out. off came the shoes and a neighbor called up to say he was running about in his bare feet. He was hauled in sneezing.
 The second act was about to go on. Then Grandma Jones, tired of the fuss, said quietly, "Ill manage it."
 She didn't hug and kiss the ras- cal. She took him down to the quiet dining room. "Chris, go and get me the book you like best, and we'll sit here and read" With the little fellow on one chair and she beside him, she read two stories. The shoe incident was soon out of his mind. She said then quietly, "Why, l forgot. You're still in your stock ings. Go and get me your shoes now. Maybe I'll go out and watch you ride for a minute" Chris hopped down and went upstairs. Which shoes would he bring? Grandma Jones knew that he knew what was right. Chris Doesn't Raise An Issue. He came down with his old shoes. She tied them without a word of praise.
 There are many times when a mother must make an issue of conduct, but there are also times when argument and the battle of wills is best avoided. Tiny chil- dren meeting up with a Situation" every six minutes by the clock are almost sure to grow in contrari- ness. substitution is just another word for getting their minds off the trouble.
 There is no harm in routing the train round by a switch to avoid q head-on collision sometimes. Es- pecially with very little children.

 have recommended to thou sands of students of health an ex- cellent little book published a few years ago by McCollum and Sim monds, Baltimore, Food, Nutrition and Health." Prof McCollum is head and Prof Simmonds associate of the chemical hygiene depart ment in the school oe hygiene, Johns Hopkins. McCollum is fa- nous for his work in nutrition and the newer knowledge of vitamins.
 But neither of these eminent au- thorities in the field indicated is a physician. Neither has had any ex- perience in practice. And so l have always endeavored to warn students of health against taking the gratuitous medical advice in the little book too seriously. The authors appear to have been ob- sessed with a queer notion about "autointoxication" when they wrote the book. Riding the obsession to beat the band they urge upon the reader the morbid, unphysiological habit of drinking, first thing every morning, a quart of water contain ing two level teaspoonfuls of com mon table salt! They concede that some individuals can drink only two cups, other, three cups Of this salt water, but they apparently as- sume many can down the whole quart and then lie down for half an hour or remain on their feet as they find more agreeable. have an idea I'd alternate, and perhaps try other positions, until
 In a healthy subject, say these near-doctors, there is practically no absorption of the salt water by the system. Why not? Oh, you wouldn't understand. and neither do I, for I'm just an ordinary old door-to-door doc, but these near doctors of Johns Hopkins say 1t is because the big drink Is "isoton1c,' that is, not, as some of you lay birds will imagine, some kind Of tonic, but the same salt strength as the blood.
 By following this strange prac- tice, declare the J. H. near-doctors, the intestine is washed out thor oughly each morning. What they mean lS llidL yOu 6iSS JOet'~-N sS-- sinternal bath' every morning.
 Why any one should want to wash out the alimentary tract every morning is one of those deep mysteries of hygiene that may be solved only in such an institution as Johns Hopkins university. We plodding practitioners will never get onto the fine points or the game.
 I still think, though, that this little book of McCollum and Sim monds is fine book for anybody who wants to learn something about nutrition and health. But If you bog down in the chapter the authors humorously entitle lily giene of the Digestive Tract" don't say I didn't warn you.
 Johns Hopkins and other con firmation notwithstanding. still insist that the morbid theory of '.autointoxication" from faulty elimination" is merely a talking point whereby quacks and nostrum vendors sell their products.
