STATE CONTROL
HELD ESSENTIAL
IN SOCIAL BILLS
Security Board Officer Gives
Little Comfort to
Home Rulers.

Members Of the joint legislative
committee drafting social security
bills are to reconvene Tuesday after
receiving advice from Frank Bane,
executive secretary of the Federal
Social Security Board.
Home rule" adherents received
little comfort yesterday from Mr.
Bane's conference with the COM
mittee. He expressed doubt that a
plan which gives the state nothing
to say about appointment or quail
ficatioE of local administrative per-
sonnet would meet with complete
Federal approval.
However, no bill would be contrary
to the Federal boards ideas if it
conforms in general with the Fed
eral plan and insures that the plan
is statewide with the state re-
sponsible to the Federal government
he said.
He said the state must be able to
assure the Federal Social Security
Board that all state subdivisions are
carrying out provisions of the act
in order to qualify for Federal aid
Original Selection Retained
The committee tentatively decided
to authorize the State Welfare
Board to dismiss county administra-
tors for incompetency with five days
notice and permit the county board
to select a successor within 80 days
Failure of the county to act would
allow the state board to fill the posi-
ton.
The state board also would be en-
powered to appoint administrators
in countries where local officials
| fail to set up social security ma
chinery.
Home rulers" succeeded in hold
ing their previous victory, however
through which the state must keep
hands off original selection of coun-
| ty boards and administrators.
Qualification standards for county
employees were rejected, although
the merit system may obtain in the
state Setup.
Separate Job Insurance Board
Before Mr.. Bane's arrival, the
committee considered unemploy-
ment insurance and tentatively de-
cided on creation of a board for its
administration separate from the
State Welfare Board.
A tentative salary schedule for
county welfare administrators has a
range of from $1,000 to $4,000, &C
cording to population of the county.
Completed drafts of the social
security legislation are to be placed
before the Federal Social Security
Board for it's inspection, it was de-
cided. Mr.. Bane said the Federal
board could not pass on the legisla-
ton before it is adopted, but could
tell what it thought of the pro-
gram"

However, all great paintings
rely, to a large extent, upon color
line and form for their effects, but
many people are not conscious of
these elements. The main differ
ence between a Picasso painting
and one by Rembrandt is the fact
that Picasso has minimized the
story and exaggerated the means
of expression.

Just when you think you're do

this one:

Sparring, you point out that
there's Picasso in every famous

painter.

The lady wraps her scarf

that" she said. But it certainly
will always be worth trying"

"It does look a bit awkward"

Picasso going into a post-cubist

BY JOE COLLIER

THERE are good many artists
Il in Indianapolis today who
would bet their last sn1ock that
Picasso paints the way he does
because some one dropped him on
his head when he was baby.
They've been looking at the ex-
hibition of Picasso at the John
Heron Art. Institute, there for
the rest of this month.
It's in a second-f1oor gallery,
presumably because the manage
ment didn't want to create a fuss
in the downstairs court. And
every one, almost, who wanderS in
there, by design or accident, starts
Immediately choosing up sides
against this most discussed of all
painters.
One head of an asylum in this
city stopped into the office of
Wilbur D. Peat, museum director,
on his way from the gallery, to
pay his respects and also to men
ton that, so far as the out
rageous" pictures composing the
exhibit were concerned he had
violent clients who could and
Gid paint Saner ones.
School teachers have stopped to
look and remained to view with
alarm.
What can our art pupils think
of pictures like that" they ask
Mr.. Peat.
NNE lady was wandering
" around the gallery the other
morning, when it was almost de-
serted. Perhaps for the first time
in her life she deliberately picked
up conversation with a stranger.
Pictures like that make me
mad" she said. They don't
mean anything and they're not
art. Even if you're an artist, I'm
saying this. I'm not an artist,
and you probably are scandalized.
But I just can't help it. Look at
that now"
And she pointed in well-bred
disgust to the picture labelled
Two Heads" which is No. l in
the accompanying layout.
About all you could do, even if
you were a Picasso fan, was look.
There are two figures that barely,
to highly imaginative person, re-
semble two heads. They seem to
be biting each other. 1t is nothing
you'd want to meet in the dark,
alone. You keep wondering how
a thing like that would be with
children.
And look at that" she COM
manded, still bristling.
There was picture labelled, in
the accompanying layout, No. 2.
It's entitled something about
an apple. There's one thing
about PicaSso, he does spot you
the title of the picture. Then
you start guessing what it is, or
how it could be what he says it is.
A GAIN there was no special
4 n defense, no adequate ex-
PLANTATION available. If you felt
called upon to say something, the
most sensible would have beer
perhaps, that he must have done
it when he wasn't looking.
But let an expert make a state
ment on Picasso's work.
