you can do a great deal to keep the
throatline firm by attention each day.
For example, whenever you smooth

neglect the neck. Work in the cream

firm and molding. The correct massage
method is that of the hands encircling
the throat, and alternating downward.

Keep That Throot|ine Young! BY lz%%# M*x7#>

If your mirror reflects the slightest
suggestion of the beginnings of that
bugaboo. a double chin, get good
cream stimulant to "step up the cir
culation" and then use one of the little
chin patters that you can purchase
reasonably. Pat the tiny flabby spots
with quick, firm movement. Many
women also find chin strap helpful.
To strengthen the muscles and pre-
vent any aaccid appearance do your
exercises before a mirror. Here's an
exercise that is easy to do and shows
you just how the muscles are being
exercised (if you watch in the mirror).
Throw the head slightly back. Extend
the chin, closing the mouth. Now lift
upward with the neck muscles, as
though you were being lifted up by
your chin.
There is another exercise that you
will want to try for the facial contour.
First bring the head as far forward as
possible with the chin touching the
chest, then raise the chin and slowly
bend the head back, until you feel a
pulling at the neck muscles.

Appetites

SAMUn JOHNSON, father of the English
dictionary, was unusually fond of tea.
He kept his housekeeper brewing it
until 4 o'clock in the morning; and he
has been credited with drinking
twenty-five cups at one sitting.
SHELLEY'S favorite dish consisted of
a great quantity of bread soaked in
boiling water, squeezed dry and
sprinkled with powdered loaf sugar
and grated nutmeg.
In HIS memoirs" John Shipp tells of
a captain who lived in the West Indies
for six months with nothing to eat but
cayenne pepper! Hot stuff. captain!

For six years Buddha ate only one
grain of hemp daily. The composer
Bellini ate nothing but ripe figs,

THE THREE "MUSTS' OF
TRAFFIC SAFETY

Better law enforcement, plus
better driver education, plus better
highways, constitute the key to auto
mobile accident prevention, according
to the experts. And none of the three
ingredients can be left out of this
safety stew" if we are to get results.
Better law enforcement doesn't
mean tough policemen, and traffic
Judges who decree the maximum pun
ishment on every possible occasion. 1t
does mean modernized traffic codes,
"fixless" tickets, a higher calibre OF
motor patrolman his many instances,
and judges and prosecutors who do
their duty WITHOUT fear or favor. 1t
The Omaha guide., 1938-09-10

means a type of law enforcement
whose purpose is not punishment, but
accident prevention. Often some sound
advice will do more to curb reckless
or thoughtless driver, than fine.
Better driver education requires
the scientific approach. Drivers must
be appealed to on every possible occa-
sion, by the written and spoked word.
Messages must be made simple, vivid,
and memorable. The great majority of
drivers involved in accidents can be
made into safe car operators. In the
case of the small percentage which is
congenitally reckless revocation licen-
ses seems to be the only cure.
Better highway construction is
where the engineer comes in. When
you build road on which it is i'm
possible to have major accident, than
you've solved the traffic problem SO
far as that road is concerned. And mo-
dern planning makes it possible to
come remarkably close to that ideal,
through the use of under and over pas
ses, traffic lane separation, and ap-
proaches which do not permit cars
travelling in opposite directions to
meet The highway of the future will
not only be faster than that of today,
but immeasurably safer.
Accident prevention involves the
long pull 1t can't be achieved over
night. But properly directed and con-
tinous campaigns, over a period of
time, will turn the trick.

Teaching Old Dogs New Tricks :

"The ancient saw that you can't
teach an old dog new tricks, doesn't
apply when it comes to teaching old
drivers new skills and attitudes says
Dr. Herbert j. Stack Of the National
Conservation Bureau. 'This goes for
the adult pedestrian too
Dr.. Stack describes some of the
work that is being carried on in var
ious communities to promote traffic
safety-work that should and must be
greatly extended if the death and ia
talety rate is to be reduced. In many
places, police departments have taken
the lead in providing scientific educa-
tional programs for drivers and ped
estrians Some departments have es-
tablished schools for veolators, and
found them to be extremely effective
in educating the ignorant and curb
ing the reckless. Newspapers, radio
and other media have done a splendid
work in keeping the gravity of the ac-
cident problem and its canifold solu-
tions before the public.
Also, Dr. Stack said, an intelligent
ly conducted educational program
simplifies the task of identifying that
small group of drivers which refuse to
voluntarily mend theid ways, and can
be reached only by arrests, fines, or re-
vocateon of driving dicenses.
One of the vital "musts7 of any
program is that it be permanent. AS
DR.. Stack warned, so-called safety
weeks" and similar hit and miss driv-
es of brief duration, usually accomp-
lish lettle or nothing. What good
may be done is lost almost immediate
ly unless the drive is followed by a
consistent educational and enforce
ment campaign that is in contenual
operation.
We've "dodged" the traffic SAT-
ETY. issue too long. We've tried spor-
adic campaigns and seen them fail
time after teme. There's only one
way out-and that is for every COM
munity, large or small, to go after the
reckless, incompetent and ignorant
driver with campaigns that will get
results

CATHOLIC WOMAN COLLEGE -
HEAD EXPLAINS LIFTING OF
COLOR BAN AT COLLEGE


New York, Sept. 8 (C)-The lift
eng of the color ban at Manhattanyille
College of the Sacred Heart is explain
ed in detail by Mother Dammann, pres
ident in statement in the college pub
lication, 'The Tower Postscript" sum-
mer number. The decision last spring
to let down the bars to colored girls
caused the circulation of an anony-
nous letter among the college alumni,
but replies proved the alumni to be
Overwhelmingly behind the admins
tration. The statement by President
Dammann reads in part:
''F'or some years we have known
that the racial problem in Catholic ed
ucation would have to bet met not by
us in theory only, but in practice,
and we have been educating our stu
dents in the principles by which it
should be met. This spring for the
first time a young colored girl who full
fills the requirements applied for ad-
mission to the Freshman class of next
September.
"Now what are these require
ments? First of all high scholastic at
tainments, this candidate meets our re-
quirements. Other students from her
high school, white girls with the same
qualifications, would be accepted with
out demur Would it be just to refuse
her?
Secondly, all applicants unless
they have been qualified for scholar
ship by special examination and by
proven need, must meet the fees stat
ed in the Bulletin. This prospective
student will meet all the required fees
for registered day student.
"Thirl, we have cultured require
ments. And this is because it is impos-
sible to give our type of education un-
less there is a we'll prepared soil IN
which to sow its seeds. When we have
taken students with home back
ground in which books are not loved,
in which truth and goodness and beau
ty, unselfishness and respect for auth
ority are not held in honor-even when
there has been ceratin veneer OF
manners and the material advantages
that money gives we have not devel-
oping the ideal traced for you mo-
ment ago. This particular student
meets this requirements also. Her ia
ther and mother are college graduates
with dignity, tact, gentleness, good
breeding and the virtues that deVout
Catholic home life develops. She is
not coming to make social contacts
Her ambitions are far wider and deep
er than that. She is coming for an ed
ucation that will equip her to work for
the uplifting Of her own racial group.
She needs such an education for leader
ship. We are Catholic college equip
ped to give it to her. Can we in con-
science refuse to do so?

opportunity to "do the truth in chari-
ty.' We made our decision on the fol-
lowing principles-the general princi-
pie of the Scaredness of human per-
sonality from which so many others
flow underlying all that we consider
ed.
81. There are no scientific facts
and no rational principles which sup
port the theory of an innate racial in
feriority.
'2. There are revealed doctrines on
the oneness and equality of the human
race which show racial discrimination
to be an unjust and therefore an I'M
moral and un-Christia nthing. More
over, the Pope through a letter which
the Sacred Congregation of Seminaries
and Universities has recently sent out
1--WE learnt of this after we made out
decision) has condemned vigorously
and roundly the theories of racism.
This condemnation is directly against
those theories of Nordic superiority
which obtain in Germany, but it ap-
plies to theories of innate racial infer
iOrity.
SO. The democratic principles OF
our Government have found expression
in the laws of many states by which
institutions which draw color line lay
themselves open to the loss of their
charters. All the first class Eastern
colleges for women admit colored stu
dents when properly qualified, with no
consequent loss of prestige. Is
Catholic college founded on superna-
turual principles to refuse to do what

clifte and other privately controlled

rational and democratic grounds? |
know of one of these colleges where
there are three Negro girls SO emblt-
tered against their religion by the re-
fusal of Catholic colleges to receive
them that they are open to the allure
ments of the Communists, who are on
ly too ready to make capital of such an
attitude on the part of Catholic insti-
tutions.
"A. The Pope and the Bishops in
sist l1non Catholic education on all le-
vels for Catholic Students A Catholic
colored girl who meets the require
ments of Catholic college and applies
for Catholic education has right to
it, and in consequence the college has
a right to it and in consequence the
college has duty to give it to her.
"5. 1t is the duty of Catholics col
leges to advance Catholic Action under
the guidance of the Bishops by Train
ing Catholic intelligentsia, in the
good meaning of this term BY helping
the lawfully ambitious Catholic mem
bers of the Negro group to subverslve
influences which are working to win
over Communistic and atheistic doct-
rines and activities. Even the mere
instinct of self representation would die
tate this The call of the Holy Father

0USTED PHYSICIAN
6. \. A. WITNESS
Dr.. Scandiffio Spends Two
and Half Hours Before
Grand Jury.

DR.. Mario Scandifio, pediatrician
of Group Health Association, who has
been expelled from membership in the
Medical Society of the District of
Columbia, spent two hours and half
today before the special grand jury
investigating Government charges that
organized medicine has violated the
Sherman Antitrust Act in its tactics
against G. H. A.
DR.. Scandiffo was the first witness
when the jurors resumed their session
| at 1890 am, and was kept in the
grand jury room longer than the usual
| morning session. He was believed
to have completed his testimony by
| the time the jury recessed for lunch,
shortly after l o'clock.
The afternoon witness was Miss
Mary Frances Stuart. laboratory tech
nician of Group Health Association
She had waited all yesterday morning
in the outer Office and again this morn
ing.
DR.. Scandiffios case is understood
to be one of the outstanding instances
of open conflict between the Medical
Society of the District of Columbia and
the medical cooperative, which now is
treating about 5000 patients.
His custer by the Medical Society
has been appealed to the Judicial Coun-
Gil Of the American Medical Associa-
ton, which has scheduled a hearing
for next month. On emerging from
the grand jury room, DR.. Scandiffio said
he had no statement to make.
