a LARGE wedding in a small
y house is often anything but
merry. If you like crowds, then
plan TO celebrate the big day UNI
der the equipped and spacious
care of a good hotel. In the end
your bills will probably be- no
higher and everyone wall be hap
pier.
Make your plans far in ad-
vance. Discuss them with the
banquet department of the hotel
you have chosen.
Here's what I'd suggest" says
Oscar of the Waldorf, an old
hand at making wedding parties
outstandingly pleasant. If ca
napes and cocktails or sherry are
served first, then the first course
for the wedding breakfast should
be soup. If no cocktails are
served, then begin with a fruit
cup.
Main Course Must BE Delicate
After the soup comes a fish or
egg entree. then the main course.
II may be SQUAD. guinea hen or
breast of chicken with dainty
vegetables such as asparagus tips
or small fine peas. Remember"
this noted host warns. that the
main course at the wedding
breakfast, served between noon
and p. m, must be something
light and delicate; certainly never
beef. pork or lamb
From his long experience with
large weddings, Oscar adds these
valuable hints: the bride and
bridegroom stand in the recep-
ton room with the parents OF
both. Often. however. the father
of the groom is considered just {
guest" and the father of the
bride more as host" while the
young couple and the two moth

Recalls How He Was
"Euchered" Out of State
Control Measure

RALEIGH, May 14.-Leading
the United Drys OF Johnston
county, which May % votes on
ABC stores, Rep. F. H. Brooks, of
the 1887 general assembly. in
Raleigh this week was more than
hopeful that the drys will carry
that election.
And if they do he believes that
Wake will have one less and a
very cogent reason for voting
down the proposal month later.
Judge Brooks, who has handled
liquor cases as mayo. of Smith
field, recorder of the sale town
ship and as both counsel for and
against men charged with offenses
against the liquor laws, stood
stoutly against the bill adopted by
the late general assembly.
Listening to the controllers who
charge him and his associates with
working to the bootlcggers' good,
Judge Brooks says he has found
the acceptable answer. He intro
duced during the late legislature
an amendment to the liquor bill
providing for the establishment of
one distillery or more by the state,
The Johnston representative was
persuaded to withdraw that amend
ment by the promise that a bill
covering the same subject would
be separately introduced. The
Johnstonian agreed, but he never
saw any such bill in committee.

Following a conference of the
Douglas officials, at which it was
decided to set up the search base,
it was stated that two new planes,
which have been kept warmed up
for "a hours, would be dispatched
to Kingman today to take up the
hunt.
The missing transport was one
built for the Dutch KIM Airlines
and was being flown to the east
coast for delivery. 1t was equipped
with radio receiving apparatus, but
carried no sending set, and it was
hoped that lack of word from the
ship might be due to a forced
landing in some inaccessible spot
and not to disaster
The big DC-3, built to accom-
modate 81 persons and measuring
100 feet across the wings, was not
carrying pay load on her
flight out of Los Angeles. All
aboard, besides its veteran pilot
Glen Moser, and co-pilot Joe VOL
folk, were friends or relatives of
company officials.

DIRECTORS INSPECT PLANT
TRIALS IN ROUTINE MEET

gional conference April II in BraW-
lev when farm bureau members
from Orange, San Bernadino, Riv-
erside and San Diego counties will
be guests of Imperial Valley. A tour
of the Imperial Irrigation District
power plant in Brawley will precede
the meeting.
Several resolutions were passed:
one asks an amendment to Section
4-C of the irrigation district code
clarifying certain provisions of that
code, an amendment already en-
dorsed by the district board OF
directors; another resolution op-
posed any increase in workmen's
compensation rates. Various other
proposals were referred to the leg
islation committee for study, such
as the proposal for four year re-
demption period in cases of defi-
cheney and senate bill 1884 relative
to the sale of grains by gross
weight.
Harold Hunt, chairman of the
Meloland Experiment station was
introduced and spoke briefly as did
Argyle MacLachlan of the commit
tee who stressed the need for local
support.

farmers, some from the deep inter-
ior of Baja California, marched in
demonstration through the MeXi-
cali streets.
At the Palacio, the governors
secretary declared Monday that the
official had not returned from a
conference with the president. A
meeting at which the governor was
TO address the agrarian group, and
scheduled for Monday, was called
off.
Meanwhile, it was learned, a COM
mittee of substantial Mexican land
owners and farmers had been nam
ed to study the situation and at
tempt to work out settlement.
Unrest in the Mexican territory
grows out of the governments pol
icy of giving the land back to the
natives, many of whom, as tenant
farmers, have remained for years
in state of peonage. Sharp con-
flict between those who do not
own land, but favor a semi-com-
munistic system of cooperatives.
and those who are landowners,
has created a farm crisis in Baja
California.

Thomas Griffith, 20, has
confessed setting the fire
which destroyed the great
Tabernacle and radio sta
ton of Wilbur Glenn Voliva's
Christian Catholic church, Police

venge by destroying the temple
where Voliva had preached the
earth is flat and damned cigaret
smoking, liquor, short skirts and
bobbed hair.
Ruesch said the youth surrend-
cred voluntarily after hearing he
was being sought, and presented
confession he had prepared in ad-
vance. He will be charged with
arson, the chief said.

have been the largest frame build
ing in the world, and the closed

at more than $600,000.

Roosevelt Recon- m e nds
Cutting Down on
CCC Ranks

WASHINGTON, April 5.
(UP)- President Roosevelt
recommended to congress
today that the Civilian Con-
servation Corps be made a
permanent part of the Federal Re-
covery and Relief program.
In special message to congress,
Mr., Roosevelt set the maximum
enrolment of CCC youths at 3OO,-
900, together with 10000 Indians
and 5000 enrollees in U. S. terri
tories and nsular possessions.
In setting that figure for corps
enrolment, the President with
stood congressional pressure for
increased CCC personnel.
ITO go beyond this number at
this time he said, -. the addi-
tional cost would seriously affect
the financial position of the trea-
sury.'
Mr.. Roosevelt sent his special
message to congress on the fourth
anniversary of the date establish
ed CCC by executive order.
Cost of maintaining about 300,-
600 CCC youths in camps will be
$500, 100000 for the 1888 fiscal year
The president named that figure
in his budget last January.
In addition to stating that cost
of caring for more men in camps
would affect the U. S. Treasury,
Mr.. Roosevelt said ito go beyond
this number (300,O0O) at this time
would open new and difficult clas-
sifications of enrolment"
In line with the presidents rec
ommendation it was believed the
number of camps would be re-
duced gradually toward 1900 dur
ing the fiscal year. The CCC has
established a policy of placing ap-
proximately 200 enrollees in each
camp A reduction in the corps
also would mean a reduction in the
number of camps.
Congressman had asked the pres
ident to maintain the strength OF
the CCC at 100000 and they may
start a fight on the floor to in
crease the total.
