STATE

The first big double hit show of the new movie season arrived at the healthfully air conditioned Warner Bros. State theater yesterday and was enthusiastically greeted by capacity audiences attending every performance.
 "Four's 8 Crowd, starring Errol Flynn, Waterbury's own Rosalind Russell, Oliva de Haviland and Patric Knowles and Little Tough Guy", starring the Dead End" kids, is show that can't be beat. It posi- lively makes history in double feat ures and is typical of the new movie season shows to follow. This show is also an important part of the $250,000 National Movie Quiz con- test and should be seen by all fu- ture or present contestants.
 The title of "Four's 8 Crowd" is an apt one and it becomes more and more apparent as the amours of the handsome young quartet get more and more involved in the com- ical story.
 Flynn as a high-pressure public relations counsel; Knowles as the owner of a newspaper; Miss Rus sell in her first gum-chewing role of a sob sister who has something more than the interests of the news paper at heart and Miss de Haviland as a very pretty heiress; all turn in exceptionally fine performances with the assistance of Walter Con- molly as Olivas millionaire grandpa who is the brunt of Hymns circu- lation promotion; Hugh Herbert and Melville Cooper in comedy bits, comprise an acting lineup un- equalled in any comedy this year.
 Little Tough Guy" with the Dead End" in full possession of the starring honors, practically jolted the audience out of their seats as the vivid story revealing the life, laughter and tragedy on the streets of a big city flashed across the screen.
 One point definitely impressed on the minds of the first nighters was that the Dead End" kids are a unique group of actors, and without peer in portraying the realistic phases of youth.
 Sharing honors with the boys are Helen Parrish, Jackie Searl and Rob- ert Wilcox.

 What is your authority for the statement that a black child is never born to white parents one of whom has a trace of negro blood? When I quoted you my friends cited the Mendelian law. (E. D. S.)
 Answer-There is no such law, only a theory. The offspring of such union is never more negroid in color or feature than the parent. All second or third hand tales to the contrary are just tales.

 If, during one month, you have used your hairbrush every sim gle night and had a weekly hot oil treatment, your hair should be in reasonably good condition to receive a satisfactory permanent wave Having done your part conscientiously, the next step is to decide where to get your wave and who shall give it. The latter decision is more important than you perhaps realize.
 After all, no permanent, regard less of the method used, can pos sibly be one hundred percent sat- isfactory if the operator isn't thor oughly experienced and, in addition, anxious and wiling to spend a great deal of time and thought on the job.
 First and foremost, beware of the operator who doesn't think it necessary to heat one curl and make a test before deciding how much heat the rest of your hair should have. Or who, when you insist on a test curl (and you cer- tainly should) gives it unwilling ly. Unless he has given you sev- eral permanents, there is only one way for him to tell just how much heat your hair requires. And that one way is by testing.
 Furthermore, it's mistake to get a permanent in shop which doesn't believe in a thorough pre- permanent shampoo. Your hair ought to be washed and rinsed with the greatest care immediate ly before the winding begins. If possible, have it dried by hand instead of machine.
 And you are entitled to sham poo afterward. Don't let anyone un- wind your hair, pour solution of vinegar and water Git softens the hair), but insist on one soaping and great deal of rinsing after that.

Sigh eeing Is One Cure For TruancV
By Olive Roberts Barton

do not think that children dread school the way they used to. Indeed, most of them rather like 1t. Whether we acknowledge it or not, most people find relief in schedule. Besides school makes a good alibi for other chores. Bill at school is let off from a whole host of stints that would be expected of him were his time free. Every day wouldn't be Saturday, were he footloose, and he knows it.
 So let us say that children like school. They fuss and holler about having to get up and out, study for decent marks, and all the rest of it, but when they see every other victim on hte street riding in the same boat, they take it as 1t comes and charge it up to fate.
 It seems to me there is less hooky played today than there was ten years ago. However, if you have a chronic runner-off, mother, and dread to think what is going to happen in the months ahead, with Willie's record against him and his probaton worn thu, you and I might get together now and talk diagnosis. Why does Willie skip school and hang around the wharf, jumping barges or begging to get into pilot houses to wacth the compass and charts?
 Boys Want Action
 Because boys have a terrific yen for things being done. Not the proxy summing up of print in books, but life in the making. Whether Willie loves boats and river life, or a steel skyscraper in the process of welding, auto en- zines being decarbonized, or just watching MT. Hobbs putting up prescriptions behind the parti- tion of the drug store, he is in- dulging some inner longng for the practical, be sure. What he goes after depends on himself, his own particular interest.
 The wonder is that boys don't take French leave from books oftener than they do. It isn't fair to compare school with a paying job like Dads, or housework that must go on, because there isn't whole lot of incentive from their point of view to work for the distant reward of passing to more wrk.
 Most boys aren't real rovers and slackers usually, but merely out to learn things on their own. The best thing can think of is to fill up their free hours with sightseeing. Can't you, dad, take the boy around more? To mills and plants, if they will let you in; to see bridges being built and the place where the fire was; to ball games and airports and farms. You have Sundays and part of Saturday, don't you? Or maybe you have a real friend not so tied.
 The boy who plays hooky may stay in school if he knows there is & treat ahead for off hours ana holidays. He won't be so fam ished for real sights and real sounds. He may learn to think that a fair exchange is no rob- bery, ard stick at lessons better.

Raleigh. Sept. 8.-(AP)-E. f. Ar
mold, executive secretary of the State
Farm Bureau Federation, said today
he would confer with F ederal agri-
cultural officials in Washington this
weekend on plans for 2 1889 tobacco
cr"b control program.
1rc executive com .nittee CT tie
federation last night instructed Ar
mold to pursue the matter of a con-
tinuation of crop control at once. and
to report back to a series of meetings
in tobacco counties starting next
week.
Continuation of control is needed to
assure farmers of a reasonable price,
Arnold said. Reports given to the ex-
ecutive committee at meeting in
Wilson were that opinion Tor continu-
ed control did not seem unanimous,
but was overwhelmingly above the
necessary two-thirds majority of the
growers, Arnold said.
The committee adopted a resolution
opposing any changes in regulations
which would permit tax free sale OF
any tobacco, scrap or otherwise, IN
excess of quotas, Arnold said. He said
some pressure was being exerted to
allow sale of scrap tobacco outside
of quota limits on a tax free or re-
duced tax basis.

Relief

Princeton, N. j., Sept 8.-(AP)-
Nells Anderson, director of the Sec

posals for local direct relief were
s'really a part of a larger drive a.
gainst any kind of Federal participa-
ton for the welfare of the people,

ference of the Governmental Research

signed by 1S member agencies OF the
Ora before the special United States
Senate committee to investigate re-
lief and unemployment last March.
"In 1881 and 1892" Andrewson SAID,
1--WE heard the same voices cry against
the dole, fearful lest the America
worker be demoralizd. When we got
Federal work relief, the time chang

dole but it must be local dole. We

Dismissal

Defense Moves for

Charge Against Tam
many Leader

New York, Sept. 8.-(AP)-Detense
Counsel today urged dismissal Of con-
spiracy charges against James }.
Hines, 61-year-old Tammany district
leader, asserting that even on the
basis of the States allegations, Hines
was only one of the players On the
team-not a master mind Of the
$40. OOO. OOO-a-year Dutch Schultz policy
racket.
BY his legal strategy, Lloyd Striker
Hines attorney, sought to prevent the
four weeks old trial from reaching the
blue ribbon" jury. Stryker asked
Justice Ferdinand Pecora for dismiss
sal of the Indictment in a N-page
typewritten brief. He cited three ma
jor legal points in moving that the Is
counts of the indictment against
Hines be thrown out. He also cited
SO cases in support of his thesis, ana
in a pre-count interview, the ch Of de-
Tense lawyer was emphatic in stating
that it was no mere defense tactics"
of routine formal nature, but thai
he sincerely believed the case should
be quashed ION the law and the
facts"
District Attorney Thomas Dewey
has indicated that in contrast to the
three hours Stryker said he would
require for oral argument on his
brief, the prosecution would need only
about fifteen minutes to answer 1t.

Postmistress Guilty of
Charges

Washington, Sept. 8.-(AP)-The
Senate Campaign expenditures Com
mittee expressed the opinion today in
a formal statement that Mrs. Maude
Toulson, postmistress of Salisbury,
Md, had violated Federal law by as
sisting Representative Lewis, Demo
crat, Maryland, in his campaign for
the Democratic senatorial nomination.
The committee said it would turn
it's findings over to the Justice De-
partment and the postmaster general.
The committees statement said re-
ports of its Investigators "do not SUI
strain the charge that the CIO is fl
nancing the campaign Of Representa-
tive Lewis"
Lewis, who is President RooSevelt's
choice in the Maryland primary
against Senator Willard F. Tydjngs,
asked the committee to investigate
newspaper advertising which indicat-
ed the CLIO had helped finance his
campaign. Lewis charged the ad-
vertising was paid by Tydings sup
porterS.
The committees investigation of the
activities of Mrs. Toulson was under
taken at the request of Tydings. Evil
dence presented by the investigators,
the committee said, did not confirm
a report that Morris Schapiro, presi-
dent OF the Boston Iron & Metal Com

Another War
Would Make
Times Worse
By CHARLES II. STEWART
Central Press COlumnist

Washington, Sept. 8.-Republicans
seem to me to be making a mistake
in trying to combat the Democratic
charge that the last few years of
American hard times date back to the
Hoover era.
They can do better than that. They
can argue that the hard times seed
was planted during a Democratic ad-
ministration-when President Wilson
permitted the United States to be
drawn into the World war; Thus they
would be in a position to blame the
Democrats instead of having Repub-
lican president blanchard an of
fensive attitude always is preferable
to a defensive one.
The G. o. p, however, entirely
overlooks this bet, which, it appears
to me, could be made a pretty good
one.
Chaos Follows War.
A big war invariably is followed by
a long period of economic distress
among the peoples who were involved
in it.
It is of historic record that an era

tury before Europe recovered from
the seven-year struggle in an earlier
age Statistlcians demonstrate that
participants in Napoleon strife were
not economically sound again for an
other century. The late President Mel
vim A. Traylor of the First National
Bank of Chicago spoke to me of our
own panic of 1893 as the 'last thun-
derclap' of our War of Secession in
the 1905
It stands to reason that the effects
of a major war don't pass in a hurry.
The World Wars bad effects may
still be felt in the year 1000, even
though considerable peace reigns in
the meantime.
Wilson To Blame?
That being the case, the World War
Was a firs~class war to keep out OF.
Yet Woodrow Wilson allowed Uncle
Sam to be entangled in it. Possibly
he could not avoid it, but it occurred
with him in the White House. The
Republicans can plausibly charge his
regime with responsibility for oul
participation.

Washington, Sept. 8.-(AP)-Cotton
and tobacco farmers will get an oD-
portunity soon to vote on continuing
for another year the crop control pro-
gram approved last spring for the
1888 yields.
Federal farm officials said today
they had begun arrangements for
submitting the question at new re-
ferenda, probably in December, since
there was little doubt that cotton and
tobacco supplies would be excessive.
Officials said they regarded the
forthcoming referenda as important
tests of the farm legislation. 1t will
be the first opportunity for farmers
who have tried out the control pro-
visions to express themselves.
Some farmers have expressed dis
satisfaction with the act, particularly
with respect to provisions giving the
government authority to levy crop
quotas and assess penalties.
Two-thirds of the growers of each
crop participating in an election must
approve the programs to make them
effective. Cotton and tobacco farm
ers gave overwhelming approval in
the first referenda.
The Census Bureau reported 1 ,331 :
745 bales of 1888 growth of cotton had
been ginned prior to September 1,
compared with 1,874,32O to that date

by leasing it to some railroad interest
