 Conditions in World
BY LYLE C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent

NSASCu AACoS CI6AA OVLACSPVuuCHU
 Washington, Jan. 3.-UP) President Roosevelt today called on congress anew for enactment of wages and hours legislation and asked the cooperation of all seg- mentS of the nation in achiev- ing better economic balance. He said a balance of the budget for the next fiscal year will not be attained and declared he will submit a special message later proposing changes in laws af- fecting business.
 The President presented a terse analysis of world conditions, eInpha- sizing that perilS of war make it necessary for the nation to main- tain it's strength sufficiently high for all purposes of self-defense. Peace. he said, has been kept by the United States despite provocations which in other days, because of their seriousness could well have engendered war"
 Stands by New Deal
 The Pre;i6ent emphasized his de- termination to advance upon the same fundamentals of the New Deal which hitherto have been proposed. He called for prompt agreements on a farm program-noW in conference between the House and Senate-and asked specifically that Congress keep the cost of its administration within the figure of current govern- ment expenditures in aid of agricul- ture."
 MT. Roosevelt reasserted his ap- proval Of proposed changes in tax laws but laid down three essentials to be considered in revision of the present statutes.
 Three Things To Remember
 Three things should be kept in mind,' he said. First the total sum to be derived by the federal treas- ury must not be decreased as re-

SUNSET SYMPHONY
DEFICIT IS $4,000
Net Loss Is 81, 900, However, With
$500 Covered by Donations
and Oversubscriptions.

A deficit Of approximately $500
was incurred by the National SYM
phony Orchestra Association in the
operation of its sunset symphony"
series at the Potomac Water Gate
this summer, according to a report
made by the Summer Concerts Com
mittee yesterday.
Harold A. Brooks, chairman, ex-
planned that $500 of this amount
is covered by oversubscriptions and
donations, reducing the net loss to
about $4,000.
Unfavorable weather conditions,
which caused postponement Of many
Of the concerts. was held largely re-
sponsible for the loss. The weather
was entirely favorable for only two
programs during the summer.
1--WE hope some way will be found
to cover the balance of the deficit" +"
the committee chairman stated.
However, the value Of these concerts
cannot be estimated solely in dollars
and cents. Not only did they pro-
vide great music at unusually low
prices, but their benefits were extend
ed to thousands Of Washingtonians
who heard the programs for nothing.
Increased interest in the winter series
may reasonably be expected as 4
result of the summer series, and in
this way part Of the actual deficit
may be met by enlarged revenues
this winter"

NEW YORK, June IS G.N.SO.
To have one beautiful and dis

Sometimes simple. sometimes
fabulous in value, but always
very, very different" D.. Mrs.
Harrison Williams has not ven
tured out of her house for
years without her precious little
key chain, bearing only two
small keys, but loaded with tiny
gold and jeweled bioelots, in
cluding several minute gold and
ieweled easter egs made by the
famous Faberger, jeWeler to the
Car of Russia, a rare ancient
Greek gold coin bearing the
image of Alexander the Great,
two Ethiopian coins given her
by Halle Selassie, and two small
gold crosses with a sensational
significance Mrs. George M.
Schlee, noted as Valentino, the
fashion designer, has a unique
jewel in the form of an amethyst
pendant brooch which is set IN
yellow gold with a small wreath
of diamond flowers. The piece
is the focal point of every street
dress which Valentino designs
for herself, is worn on the lapel
of her tailored suits, and in
variably adorns the bodice OF
her evening dresses. :. Mrs.

Managed
By Woman

eff artichokes were eaten all
over the United States the way
they are in the West Coast
area. it would be impossible to
supply the demand" This was
the statement of Mrs. L. E.
Eastman, of San Francisco, in
Washington for a brief visit on
her way to New York and Bos
ton.
Mrs. Eastman is said to be
the only woman in the country
who is manager Of an associa-
tion of producers Of artichokes
and brussel sprouts. And fur
thermore, the 40 producers max
ing up the association are the
only commercial raisers of this
produce in the United States.
AS everything on the West
Coast ContriveS to have more or
less of an international flavor,
the artichoke and brussel sprout
business is no exception. The
growers are naturalized Italians.
The laborers are also Italians
with a sprinkling of Filipinos
and Japanese.
Mrs. Eastman says the rail-
roads call her the artichoke traf.
fic manager, because she
handles the claims Of her COM
pany having to do with frozen
or injured produce. Shipping
goes on from the latter part OF
August until May and about 600
carloads a year are shipped to
the principle cities in the coun-
try.

GUNNER rains are unusual in
~ Holland. They seem to be
reserved for the late fall and
winter, and that is one reason
for the out-of-doors life, the Sc
curity of planning picnicS two
or three weeks in advance. You
can be sure your pastel linens,
gay sports clothes and fragile
hats will be safe from discour-
aging showers and look smart
the whole season through.
Bright colors faScinate us
when the sun is high and we
hope they will always be used
for accessories and furnishings,
as we'll as for the glorious
prints and stripes every girl
loves. But when it comes to the
better and more formal sports
and summer suits, there will be
more pastels than ever. You see
it is flattering to all tanS,
whether her skin is a Tahitian
shade or just the bisque tone OF
a few shades darker than the
natural water-lily tint.
Hollywood, as Perc Westmore
tells us, has become shoulder
conscious, and even the depen-
dable shoulder straps are being
omitted from everything but
bathing suits, and this viii mean

to round out the contour OF our
own.
You will want nice smooth
well-rounded shoulders, but let
us caution you about the too
robust development Of arms
and shoulders if you are not the
athletic type. Dainty girls should
have slender shoulders no mat
ter what the vogue may be.
There is one type Of exercise
that has been tried and found
ideal for fine shoulder develop
ment, and that as you may
know, is swimming. It neceSSi-
tates deep full breathing as well
as the stretching of every mus
Gle in the body, with the salts
factory result of well.propor-
toned figure.
You must know how to swim
if you want to get the most
enjoyment out of your playtime
and there is no reason for not
learning right now. It is so
easy to master the simple rules
of swimming. even if you just
learn to float and breathe with
out the fear of getting water in
your lungs it will add so much
to your fun.
