Just because Gone With the
Wind" made so many people "crin-
oline conscious" that even women's
dresses are being named after the
book is no sign that all has been
said about the South.
boy in Blue" is another story.
Forget Scarlett and Rhett and
read it for itself. It has its own
charm. There were countless regi-
ments of "Boys in Blue" and this
one is fairly representative. He
came from an Indiana farm and, as
you know by the title, he fought
for the North.
We might say he fought glori-
ously, but it wasn't glorious to
him. He saw war las a bellyache,
a confused strife for boxcar space,
a useless march, a grudge at the
troopers and gunners and wag-
goners, a surfeit Of hills and towns
and faces and sunshine and rain. +"
It was also a cut finger that was
slow to heal and slaughter and
carnage and the resentment Of the
impoverished South.
There's a love story, too, after
the manner of old-Style novels in
which the Northern boy woos the
Southern girl. However, the girl,
like the boy, is pretty close to the
earth. You might call this the
seamier side Of the Civil War
minus moonlight and magnolia.

For American Youth

TE will of the late Mr. Charles Hayden of New York.
leaves an estate Of approximately fifty million dol
lars to be spent for improving the condition of American
youth.
This is worthy of utilizing the accumulated
money and follows example set by many who have
gathered fortunes in leaving fortunes for the accom-
plishment of good after their death.
Through the Charles Hayden Foundation which would
be established under the will it is proposed to promote
the "moral, physical and intellectual development Of
young and boys"
That is purpose which is bringing action from many
outstanding citizens and for which much larger of
money could be used wisely than now obtainable.
Washington has recently had demonstration of this
fine type Of action result of the contribution Of
substantial sum by Mr. Frank R. Jeleff to erect new
and modern boys club for the CITY,
Long interested in the fine work which the boys clubs
doing Mr. Jeeff not only gives freely of his money
to promote the work. but devotes many hours to seeing
that the activities of the clubs planned and executed
in order to bring the best results to the community.
There is example in these activities of Mr. Jelleff
which, it is to be wished, would be generally fol-
lowed here in own city.

UNHAPPY REFLECTIONS
Is that the way you think about

talk. when we're alone with our
unhappy reflections excusing
ourselves, blaming the Other Eel

pipe dreams OF the wonders we'd
perform if only we had our own
way. All the time, believing hon
estly, that it isn't our fault if our
lives have gone mishmaSh.
But we're wrong. Just kidding
ourselves. 1t isn't the Other Eel
lows fault, nor Fate's, if we mess
things up-it'S our own.
We are what we want to be.
we do what we want to do.
If we make a mess of things,
it's because we choose to do so.

secret, fleeting thought thai

AT THE PARTY

And as to Senator Pat Harrison,
when he wins a battle he wins 1t,
no fooling.
One of the incest pre-inaugural
parties put on in Washington this
week was the Mississippi party at
Wardman Park Hotel. With lit
tie bit of pressure brought here
and there the National and the
Columbia BroadcaSting units sent
down some of their best enter
tainerS.
The party was visited by Secre-
tary of Commerce Dan Roper,
Senators Joseph T. Robinson and
William H. King, and everyone
had a splendid time. Each one OF
the visiting notables was called
upon to make a speech. These all
ran in the vein Of Secretary
Roper'S remark:
"When you spell Mississippi
1t comes out Pat Harrison"
And all the while at the din
ner table sat Senator Theodore
G.. Bilbo, the other Senator from
the same State who, it is re-
ported, had very little to say.
He, as you may have remem'
bered, vigorously opposed Senator
Harrison in the recent campaign

COMMISSIONS

GEORGE E. ALLEN H a rr son, OF
Mississippi, attended a reception
held by the Senator in honor Of
Gov. Hugh White and the delega-
ton from his State who came to
town to see the Inaugural.
Mrs. White was in the receiving
line and when she turned to greet
the guests she was presented to
Mary Allen, the Commissioners
wife. The introduction was done
quickly and the words ALLEN, Dis
trict Commissioner" was about all
she caught, so with her sweetest
smile she said:
"How do you do? have al
ways admired your father, the
Commissioner"
Unfortunately for the Commits
sioner, his friends heard and have
been ribbing him ever since al
though it is a statement that
would be considered a compliment
by more than one wife.

Marry-GO-ROund
By Helen Rowland

Why do husbands leave home?
Why does a man with a perfectly
good wife slip from the straight
and narrow path, in search of di-
version, adventure-and a change?
His favorite alibi is that his wife
doesn't understand him" But
that is "just an alibi." The real
reason is that she probably under
stands him TOO WELL. He is no
longer a glamorous novelty to her.
The girl of today is all bewil-
dered about this thing. She hears
the cracking of the wedding VOWS
all around her and she shivers at
the thought Of trying to make a
permanent partnership out OF
what seems no more permanent
than last summers permanent
wave"
She asks herself sadly if mar.
riage IS merely the little interval
between the wedding and the di.
vorce. And WHY eternal love"
appears to last only from the first
kiss to the next woman.
Why does a man think he needs

All! But that's where the catch

wife has become an old story to
him that he looks around for a

WIFE.

not because he is looking for a

He is looking for somebody to
whom he is a deep, fascinating

Somebody to whom all his
stories are new and who will greet
them with a spontaneous laugh
instead of with pallid smile or a
patient yawn.
Somebody who will applaud
when he says or does something
brilliant" and will be deeply i'm
pressed with his magnificent wis.
dom and gratefully beg for mas
terly advice" Somebody who
will relieve him Of all "inferiority

Somebody who will be thrilled
by his Zine" and dazzled by all
his little stunts. Somebody who
will be cheer-leader and help him
admire himself! Somebody whom
he can surprise and astoniSh and
electrify!
He says he is yearning for some
body who understands him." But
what he is lc coking for is somebody
who doesn't YET understand him,
doesn't know his little weaknesses,
has never had to pull the cold
shower for him, never put his feet
in mustard water, never uncovered
his alibis, and doesn't know that
he sleeps with his mouth open.
Somebody who flatterS him and
never tells him that he is getting

on top. Somebody to whom HE
is a brand NEW story!

A New Committee

HTNHE DESIGNATION Of new subcommittee of the House
Appropriations Committee to prepare the District
Supply Bill for the coming fiscal year comes at time
when an acute condition faces the city and when the fiscal
relations between the Federal and District governments
are delicate.
The Representatives appointed to the subcommittee
therefore will be called upon all of their knowledge
of government and to display the utmost wisdom the
National Capital is to come out of the situation without
suffering damage which might mark it for years
Representative Ross Collins of Mississippi, is the new
chairman of the group, and although stranger to this
position he is familiar with the city and with the fiscal
problem which it faces.
The other members of the subcommittee all new to
the problem and, presume enter upon their duties
without the prejudces against the National Capital and
its citizens which strongly marked the activities OF
some members in former years.
BRIEFLY. THE SITUATION IN WHICH THE CITY
FINDS ITSELF AS THE NEW SUBCOMMITTEE
TAKES OVER IS THAT THE SURPRISES WHICH
IT HAD BUILT UP IN PAST YEARS ARE WIPED
OUTBY THE PROCESS OF CUTTING TO AN IMPOS-
SIBLE MINIMUM THE AMOUNT WHICH THE FED
ERAL GOVERNMENT PAYS TOWARD THE DE-
VELOPMENT OF ITS CAPITAL AND THAT THESE
SURPRISES ARE ABOUT TO BE CONVERTED
INTO A DEFICIT UNLESS LOCAL TAXES ARE
RAISED TO A DISASTROUS LEVEL.
This deficit would be approximately ten million dol
lars at the end of the next fiscal year unless the money
is raised during that period to meet the prospective red
ink figure
There are three courses which can be pursued
Taxes can be raised to meet the ten million
The Federal Government resume the payment OF
fair and equitable share in the expenses Of its Capital
Or the total budget be curaied by all or any part
of the items which would create the deficit.
The subcommittee headed by Representative Collins
will be the first of many groups Capitol Hill to con-
slider the matter.
By adopting and pursuing fair and equitable course
course which will permit the development here Of the
city which the American people want as their Capital
without imposing hardship upon those who happen to
live in the community the subcommittee end what
may otherwise become complicated legislative tangle
Judging by the personnel of the committee and by the
records of it's members this committee is more
likely to follow that course than any House Appropra
tions group which has handled the District matter for
many years.
