A remark in jest and coincidence

that Senator Theodore G. Bilbo's black
eye was caused by Senator Huey p.

Mississippi's Bilbo, who is not Longs
most ardent admirer, was in an auto

got slight cash in his head and an
eye that looked as if it had met up
with swiftly travelling fist.
When Bilbo appeared at his Office
yesterday, he brushed aside queries
about his injuries with the remark that
he had Just met up with Huey Long" D."
No one paid any particular atten-
ton to that until Long appeared with
a left hand which had some tape about

details of the encounter which never
happened were going the rounds.
Long said his hand resulted from a

women leaders get so excited

One thing Miss Phillips has found
is that women are growing more
and more tolerant, more able to see
both sides of a question without
getting apopleXy about the other
persons point of view.
This, she says, is true of women
abroad as we'll as in this country.
Indeed. she boasts. they now can
speak almost calmly of subjects that
used to make them see red.
Less Nationalistic Than Men
They also are less inclined to be
nationaliStic than men at the pres
ent time and that particularly fits
them to be peacemakerS.
We'll. if it comes to that, women
are used to smoothing every situa-
ton over" added Miss Phillips, who
is a lawyer by profession. They've
been the unrufflers in the home for
10. these many years. and so they
undertake it naturally for the
world"
Miss Phillips believes that the
worlds great problem at the mo-
ment is not war but jobs enough for
everybody. She does not feel, how
ever, that the movement to send
women back to their homes so that
men may have the jobs thus va
Gated will help much.

Fund Raising
Is Discussed
at Gathering
National Junior League
Official Addresses
City Group.

Money making activities and the
public's response were discussed at
a general meeting of the Junior
League of indianapolis today at the
American Central Life Insurance
Building, by Mrs. Robert Dingman,
New York.
In her talk on Good and Poor
Tastes in Money Raising" Mrs.
Dingman, secretary of the ways and
means department of the Associated
Junior Leagues of America. cited
the decrease of tearooms, gift shops
and fashion shows as league pro-
jects.
She said that there are only six
tearoomS maintained by leagues IN
as many cities. This she attributed
to higher food costs, increased COM
petition and general economic con-
ditions. At the present time, SAL
wage shops and circulating libraries
are leading.
She grouped the money-taking
activities into general claSses-per-
manent business ventures, sports
events, social functions and thea
tricals.
Some idea of the magnitude Of
the combined money-raising of the
leagues is shown from the fact that
last year the 139 leagues expended
total Of almost half million dol
lars in their own cities. The largest
single item went toward curative
health, including hospitals. clinics,
psychiatric clinics, and convalescent
care. Approximately S161 $50 was
spent in this field alone in 1884, in
the 139 cities.
Work for children afforded a large
appeal to the leagues, S93,935 being
expended for their care the same
year. Next in rank came the public
health or preventive work, 1865.
For family welfare and relief the
leagues earned and gave S39 ITO.
The rest of the money was divided
between local agencies or was used
for educational work.
