Education BOARD
EYES COMMUNISM
Washington Open Forum Is
Denied Use of School.
Debate Is Heated.

Communism occupied major part
of the time of the Board of Educa-
ton at its regular meeting yesterday
afternoon.
The discussions resulted, first, in
the refusal of the board to permit the
Washington Open Forum to meet in
the Thomson School, and second. In
an informal inquiry into what Rus
sian connections. if any, are held by
DR.. w. w. Charters, consultant for
the character education experiment.
The first developed into a heated
clash between Linn A. E. Gale, presi-
dent of the forum, and Henry I. Quinn,
board member; another loud-voiced
exchange between Gale and John D.
Bradley, an attorney, and finally q
dissenting voice against Sitting Of
open discussions" by Charles H. Hous-
ton, also a member Of the board and
dean of Howard University Law School.
Gale, who first appeared before the
board two weeks ago, submitted a
number Of letters from members Of
Congress and other officials lauding
the forum. With this he appended
an outline of the forums future pro-
grams. These were taken up by the
boards committee on the community
use of buildings, of which Quinn is
chairman.
Quizzed on Communism.
Quinn Immediately asked Gale II,
at one of the forums meetings held
in the auditorium of the Scar, Roebuck
Co., the program had not been COM
posed of series Of filthy and obscene
stories"
Gale undertook an explanation
and Quinn turned to his communistic
activities and affiliations. After hav-
ing Gale identify his signature on
photostatic copies of letters obtained
from the Department Of Justice, ques-
toned him regarding his views on
Communism.
After each question, Gale launched
into a lengthy explanation. Quinn
brought up Gales activities in Mexico
in 1919. his statements before the Fish
Committee on Communism in 1890
when he was quoted as saying, I'm
a 100 per cent American Communist"
Gale claimed his views had changed,
but when he attempted to elaborate
after each question, Quinn finally
shouted:
Don't try to evade my questions,
just answer them. Have you kept your
word to others who have allowed the
forum to use their halls?"
Yes. as far as it's possible" Gale
replied. Il want you to differentiate
between my personal views and the
purposes of the forum. The majority
of its members don't agree with me-
1t is educational in purpose and we
discuss only civic questions"
At this point Bradley broke in.
accusing Gale of active Communist
leadership. Gale turned on him, but
before the two could say many words,
Quinn raped for order.
we can't permit a debate here
now"
The subject was dropped by the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1935-02-21

committee only to be taken up later
by the whole board.
I'VE don't want to be put in the
position Of having to police our
school buildings" Quinn told the
board in moving for rejection Of the
application.
"As q member of a minority group
myself" Houston put in, IT am in
favor of open discussions of all
questions. Discussions of Communism
should not be stified."
I'VE have q rule against acri-
monious debate" Henry Gilligan re-
piled.
Acrimonious debate may result
from a discussion Of Christian tenn
perance," Houston answered. Il
don't want to see the board set up
rule to forbid the discussion OF
any single question. Don't prohibit
subjects simply as subjects; there
should be some broader reason"
Charters Case.
Quinn charged that the Washing.
Ton Open Forum was not a respon.
sible organization and the boarS
supported refusal to permit the us,
! of its building.

Quinn explained that his connec-
ton was probably no more than that
of other educators who are employed
for a fee to give advice.
Should we dignity such an inquiry
by formal action?" Houston asked.

MAY DAY PREPARATIONS

Every year, as May draws near. our little city Is buzzing with plans for May day-child health day. This annual event has done a lot to draw us together. and make 1t easier to work harmoniously on some joint project. Last year we concentrated our efforts on open ing a much needed baby-welfarc station, and were successful. This year, we are turning our attention to the stamping out of diphtheria in our community. We know 1t can be done; other places have done 1t, and there is no excuse for letting children die of diphtheria when we know so well how to prevent it.
 The first essential was coopera- ton between public health officials and the medical profession. and that I am happy to say we have A great deal of spade work has gone into our prepara- tions, but now we are ready to an- nounce this years May day fea- ture,-the childrens health hour.
 The four doctors in our com munity have agreed to set aside two periods during the month of May when they will give children the antl-diphtheria treatment for soc. This is not intended of course for the families who are able to pay the regular fee. The children are to be admitted to the health hour through the public health nurse, and the nurse by the way will recommend cases for free treatment, where in her Judgment even 50 cents would seem prohibi- tive. The county board of health will supply the toxoid at cost.
 We are going to try this method and If 1t works out well, we may keep the children's health hour as a permanent thing, not only for immunization but for general ad- vice and treatment also.
 This Is the medical end of our preparations. Getting the parents educated to see the value of im- munization and to bring their chill dren to the doctor, is the other half of the battle. and probably the large half. And here the women's organizations are inval- uable. My good friend, Mrs John son. is a tower of strength--ad- dressing parent-teacher meetings, organizing women to help the nurse to locate the preschool children In the homes, and so on. Even MT Johnson, in his quiet way, is help ing to publicize the drive. He has arranged for showings of a short film on diphtheria prevention In

GLORIEYING
 YOURSELF.

"The days of dull eye makeup are about over," a well-known cosmetician told me recently. women no longer want their eyes to look dark and tired. They want sparkle and a subtle shine on their lids. For this reason. I have created a new eye-shadow that gives lustre and verve to eyelids."
 And he has. Now it is possible for a blonde to buy green or blue eyeshadow that has underlying silver lights in it. And a brunette can get any of the fiattering brown or purple tones that look softly shining after application.
 This new product is to be ap- piled carefully and sparingly, of course. After all, your eyes are the focal point of your beauty and you certainly want to enhance, not dis tort them.
 After you have put on all other makeup. except powder, dip fore finger lightly in a bit of cleans ing cream and then brush 1t across the eyelid cosmetic. Beginning slightly outward from your nose, blend 1t smoothly and evenly to the outer edge of your eye and up- ward to the sharp bone that forms the upper edge of the eye-socket. Don't extend 1t outward on your cheek.
 When you have finished, cover the lids with a light coat of pow der and brush off the excess few minutes later. Mascara, of course, should be put on after you have powdered. Use 1t sparingly, too.

PARIS STYLES
By MARY FENTREss

Paris (UP)-Worth Is showing an attractive sport outfit that has decided Hitlerian tendencies. It Is a high-necked brown sweater, which is worn with a white skirt that Is spattered with little brown swastikas. The outfit is extremely simple, its sole decorations being a row of tiny buttons running down under the chin and plain gold clasp on the belt.
 Figured skirts with Jackets or a solid color are very popular. Schiaparelli shows skirt oi checkered black and white wool, which is worn with 8 tailored black jacket. The same blouse shows a tweed suit in bois de rose. with the skirt of one weave and the jacket of another. By the way, bois de rose promises 10 be one of the best colors TOT spring and summer.
 Another good shade for spring is a warm, yellowish gold. The Maison de Blanc has an entire window filled with hats and dresses which carry out the pop ular gold and brown color com, bination. A dress in gold will have a triangular brown scarr at the neck, brown belt and but tons, and will be worn with a shallow crowned gold straw sailor, which is trimmed in brown grosgrain ribbon. Sim plicity seems to be the keynote Tn all the daytime clothes.

EY YOUR CHILDREN
zssS NeSsl szsSssx "a
Q Oliss Robssts Bsrtoe :.

Few families have old school books lying about any more.
 It used to be that every book case, however small. contained an old speller, arithmetic, history and geography, to say nothing of two or three grammars and half a dozen readers. If a child happened to go to high school there were also guides to the "ologies" and "isms," foreign languages and the best literature.
 Since the free-book system was adopted some decades ago, most graduates have taken with them into the world, besides their diplo- mas, only what they happened to have in their heads. No books for future reference, no way to pick up lost points or to relearn the nine- tenths of all they were sure to for get--or perhaps never knew.
 Confidence From Propinquity
 I have felt this to be a distinct loss to our graduates. It is perfect ly true, of course, that a large number of them will never open any kind of text book again. There are thousands of people to-day, however, who must regret keenly that they have no means to quick reference, no way of reviewing facts unless they trek to the public library.
 It is not beyond reason to think or at least hope that some way could be worked out by schools, whereby duplicate sets of books might be sold cheaply to students desiring them. or to distribute old sets when replaced by new ones.
 Even though they may lie un- touched thereafter in trunk or closet shelf, some way these old pillars of learning contribute a cer- tain moral support to the ex-pupil. He feels that what he failed to get in school is right there close at hand anyway. It sets one up in some mysterious way to have the source of supply ever ready.
 Reference departments of pub lie libraries as well as the vogue for encyclopedias and dictionaries in the home have naturally re- duced our dependence on old text books. But there is something in- innate about the book we lived with for years. ear-marked and marginally decorated. Besides, we know just where to find that con- jHgation or quotation we so often need in big hurry. There is noth- ing like the book you know"
 The only criticism I have to make of the schools loaning sys- tenn is this gap 1t leaves in later life. I suppose nothing much can be done about it now, but some day 1t may be possible for each child to carry away with him set of books to call his own forever. Copyright, 1885, NEA Service. Inc

Designers Create Smart Clothes For Large Women

summery shades in your wardrobe, you'll get bored to death with your clothes. Be sides, such soft tones as pow der blue, beige, orchid and rose can be fiattering to large sizes, too-and they're much cooler on hot days.
 The dress here at the left today has all the style points for which a size S40 should look. Made of a rich gray sheer, it molds the figure about the hips, falls straight from there to the hemline, has 8 surplice bodice and rag Ian shoulders, with open- work detail.
 Scorn Large Prints
 Wear it with a gray hat. trimmed with some kind of flower fancy in contrasting colors, white gloves, gray shoes and bag, and rest as- sured that you are perfectly groomed for luncheon, bridge parties and tea.
 The other ensemble (right) comes in a dusty blue sheer and is trimmed with match ing lace. The dress is straight and slenderizing with 8 plain V neckline and narrow belt of self-material. The three quarters length jacket has bell-shaped sleeves and a back flare that swings gracefully as you walk. This, also, is nice for dress-up occasions, and, in hot weather, is simple enough to wear on the street.

Mature Figure Made Stylish
BY MARIAN YOUNG

NNEA 0SENASS Se~~ ~~@~~~APSAs~1SAep
 New York-Raglan sleeves which give a slipping, slender look to plump shoulders - surplice fronts that have a youthful swing about them straight skirts that take pounds off her hips = three quarters length jackets - all these and many more tricks of clever designers make clothes for the mature figure interesting and smart.
 No longer is it necessary to dismiss the possibilities of looking chic simply because you have stepped out of the size 16 class. Nowadays, lar ger sizes come in for their share of consideration, and it really isn't such a hard job to find suitable outfits. How ever, you have to spend a lit tie more time shopping and you ought to keep a few rules in mind while you're doing it.
 Basis of Perfect Ensemble
 First, if you are larger than an IS, don't let anyone sell you a print with large. bold patterns. You can wear diminutive floral prints, of course, but even these shouldn't be too bright-color- ed.
 This doesn't mean that you must always go in for black, dark brown and navy blue. Naturally, black is more slen- derizing than any other color. but, unless you have a few
