| New Deal Must
Not Swing Right,
| Ickes Insists

Secretary of the Interior Ickes,
who on several occasions has advo-
Gated a third term for President
Roosevelt, declared yesterday the
New Deal can't swing very far to the
right and remain the New Deal"
He made the statement in reply to
question at his press conference
as to whether, in his opinion, the
New Deal would swing right. left or
keep middle course during the pre-
election year.
1T can't 60 back" Mr.. Ickes said,
in explaining that the New Deal is
supposed Ito redress some of the
social and economic ills from which
the people are suffering"
Secretary Ickes also expressed lack
OF sympathy with a desire on the
part of Representative Ludlow,
Democrat, of Indiana to introduce
a bill divorcing the Government
from the rum business in the Virgin
Islands.
why anybody wants to step in
and destroy that business is more
than I can understand" Mr.. Ickes
championed. I'VE think it is better
for the islands to keep up industry
to help support its native population
than to keep them on relief"

CHICAGO, Dec. 23.-All Santa
Claus wants for Christmas is a
straight mans job in a comedy act.
The white-whiskered gentleman
in the red suit at Loop department
store confided this today. For sew
eral weeks he has been interviewing
300 little visitors daily, but the
Q's and AS change but little.
Whats the most satisfying thing
about the Santa Claus business?"
he asked and answered, The utter
faith of childhood. And the biggest
problem? To avoid shattering a
child's faith.
This morning a little girl con-
f1ded she wanted an electric train.
Her clothes told me she'd be lucky
to get an orange. What to do?
The Santa Claus gospel says in a
case like that to be heartily indefi-
mite.
Most youngsters are so pleased
with whatever they get that they
have forgotten what they asked for
anyway.

Hungary Prepares

BACKGROUND

BACKGROUND
Jevs, on Day to complete er-

steps as has Czecho- -Slovaktd,
under influence of Germany.
Hungary hitherto had offered

By the Associated Press
BUDAPEST. Dec. 23-Hungary
confronted Europe with a fresh
Jewish problem today when the
government placed before Parlia-
ment sweeping measures to restrict
Jews participation in the economic
and political life of the nation.
The anti-Semitic program was
introduced in an eight-minute ses-
sion devoted to reading of a govern
ment statement on the Jewish prob
lem.
Hungary was obliged to protect
herself against possible infiltration
of Jews" from neighboring countries
with population of zoe, 900 900 in
which sharp anti-Jewish measures
are being taken, the government of
Premier Bella Imredi explained.
In the lower house some govern
ment members shouted, this Is only
the beginning"
Consulates Expect Rush.
Up to now q haven of comparative
security for Jews, Hungary seemed
definitely headed for restrictive
legislation barring thousands of
Jews from certain businesses. pro-
fessions and state employment.
Foreign consulates were expecting
a storm of applications for visas
from many of Hungary's estimated
6o0. 900 full" Jews and zoo, 900 de-
scribed as fractional" Jews. in a
total population Of about 5000, 900.
The Hungarian Jewish commu-
nifty, expecting that the proposed
legislation would be severe, never
theless was appalled, by the sweep
ing regulations limiting the right
of franchise and restricting par
ticipation in professions and busi-
nesses to 6 to II per cent Of the total
number Of persons occupied in the
various callings.
The governments attitude, how
ever, was that the proposed Hun
garian law WAS moderate in COM
parison with some statutes else
where in Germany and Italy, for
example, because there was . pro-
vision for its gradual enforcement.
It WAS not to go into full effect
for five years.
Separate vete Provided.
The projected legislation would
also provide that Jews vote sepa-
rately. 30 days after non-Jews, al
though the purpose Of such post
ponement was not clarified: the gov
eminent would be empowered to
regulate Jewish emigration: Jews
would be limited to 6 per cent of
the total engaged in journalism,
engineering, law, medicine and state
employment and in businesses up
to IL per cent; employers would re-
port at intervals Of six months on
progress they were making In COM
plying; no Jew could be elected to
the Upper House of Parliament; the
interior ministry would be author
lied to invalidate citizenship of Jews
naturalized after July /, 1914, and
to fnvalidate any citizenship ac-
quired fraudulently; no Jews would
be permitted in leading positions
IN theaters and motion pictures.

Sweden and Germany.

Both in Sweden and Germany spe-
cial cakes of Nisse and Nasse, the
brownies, and animals are baked and
set out on tables during all IL days
of the Christmas celebration. Every
visitor must eat little, so as not to
take Christmas out of the house when
he goes. The German Christmas tree
is the universal emblem of the day
and nowhere has more sentiment
gathered about the celebration of this
holiday. In both Sweden and Poland
as well as Norway, sheaves of wheat
are placed on the top of tall poles
and put out for the birds. If many
birds visit them in augurs bountiful
harvest the coming year.

Christmas in Many Lands.

We have borrowed from England
Germany, Holland, Sweden, Italy and
other foreign countries the Christmas
customs brought to our shores by
homesick newcomers, who have en-
riched our holidays with their ma
tional customs, and have woven them
into an American pattern dear to us
ALL
Turning back the pages of history
we find the Pilgrims landed on the
Oath of December, 1920, and spent
Christmas day working on a house
for themselves and their goods,
though the ships master served
"beere" to the company that eve
ming. But this day was considered
popish and pagan on that rockbound
coast until 1877, when the general
court issued an act that no one should
be hindered from celebrating it. By
the middle of the 10Th century, how
ever, these early prejudices had dis
appeared and Christmas was as merry
there as in other parts of our country
Santa Claus sailed into New Am
