HARBOR NEEDS PUT
ROLLERS UNDER 10
STORY STRUCTURE

MONTREAL, Dec. 7. (UPl--
"a building on roller skates" IS
one of the strange edifices that
tower off the harbor here.
The building, $50 feet high, IS
part of a grain elevator, and
houses huge apparatus known
as "legs" which dive down into
the depths of a grain-carrying
ship and unload the vessels car
go.
The matches of the various
ships that tie up in the harbor
are not always in the same place
because of the difference in size
of the ships and some type OF
movable apparatus which can
reach the holds is necessary. The
1O-story building on wheels was
built to meet the problem.
When a ship ties up to un-
load, the building can move along
the wharf on specially construct
ed tracks, and Immediately pro-
ceeds to empty the ship and fill
the bins of the elevator.

Capt. Eden May
Rejoin British
Cabinet Soon

LONDON, Dec. Z. (UP). - II
was learned reliably last night
that there is a strong possibility
of Captain Anthony Eden rejoin-
ing the British cabinet the latter
part of January as secretary of
state for the Dominions. Such ac-
ton, however, is dependent upon
foreign affairs developments aft

Minister Neville Chamberlain and
Foreign Secretary Viscount Hall

= Eden, former foreign secretary
resigned in protest against Cham
berlain's policy of appeasing the
dictator states by direct dealing
.Eden's return would not cause
the displacement of any existing
cabinet officers since Malcolm
Macdonald now holds two port
folios- colonies and Dominions.
Informed quarters said that
just before Eden sailed for the
United States, there were mot
unsuccessful" attempts to heal the
breach between Eden and the
government. 1t was learned that
efforts to secure Eden's leader
ship of new party to oppose the
government of Chamberlain had
failed.
Eden's speeches have stressed
national unity, and in many quar-
tiers this was interpreted as an
expression of willingness on his
part to offer hisservices to Cham
berlain.

No Wrong Done
Through Handling
OF Auto Patents
Sen. O'Mahoney Expresses
Personal View After
Monopoly Inquiry

h WASHINGTON, Dec, Z. (UP)
Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney, d.
Wyo. chairman of the monopoly
investigating committee. yesteraa!
absolved automobile manufactur-
ers of any wrong-doing in the use
of patents to suppress competition.
He said at the conclusion OF
two-day inquiry into the automo-
bile industry that its leaders en-
plov patents chiefly for purposes
of protection against infringement
suits; that the industry does not
seek to make money from patents
through ROYALTIES; and in no case
arc patents used to obtain controi
of the market and that they are
not used to suppress competltion'
O'Mahoney spoke only for NM
self. He coupled praise OF the use
being made of patents by the au-
tomobi!e makers with an obserVa-
ton that this practice is mot en-
tirely perfect" and that the auto
industry's methods are not neces.
SarllY ones WHICH, lllSAS oS ePPA
to industry generally.
The committee recessed at the
close of the automobile inquiry
until Monday when it will de!ve
into the patent operations in the
glass container industry. lnvestl-
gators have photographed hum
dreds of letters bearing on this
subject in the files of dozen OF
more glass companies and it was
reported that they will disclose
different situation than prevails in
the automobile industry.
Testimony by two top-flight ex-
ecutives of the General Motors
Corp, William S. Knudsnn, presl-
dent, and Charles F. Kettering,
vice president, brought the auto

FORD TO WIDEN
FARM PROJECT
FOR IDLE BOYS
Experiment on 400 Acre
Tract Nets Profit
Of $4,000
By ROBERT LA BLONDE
limited Press Staff Correspondent

DEARBORN, Mich, Dec. z
, CUP)-Henry Ford is more con
WINGED than ever that the soil viii
nav dividends. Seventy youth:
he started this year on a back
to-the farm movement cam
through the experiment so finan
ciallv successful Ford plans tc
expand the idea next year.
throughout the lean years
since 1929, the automobile mag,
nate had insisted that the key to
returning prosperity was in the
soil. He led the way to the use
of farm products in heavy indus
trv by making door handles,
steering wheels and paint from
the soy bean.
Last spring he conceived an
idea that would help jobless
youths from needy families keep
themselves busy and possibly
earn some money in agriculture.
He turned over 400-acre tract
near his old homestead to 70 boys
-provided them with farm mach
inerv, army tents and mess hall.
/ The BOYS called it Camp Legion
because many of them were from
veterans families whose wage
earners were disabled or dead.
NET PROFIT $4,000
After a bountiful harvest this
fall, the camp showed a profit of
$4,000 from its agricultural prod
nets after costs of the camp and
( So daily wages to the boys had
been deducted. Only II of the
original camp enrollees failed to
work out the full six months in
the fields. Eight of them were
forced to quit to move away from
the city with their parents.
! When the profits were divided,
each of the full-time enrollees
received shares of S96.97 each.
| Those forced to quit before the
camp broke up received lesser
amounts.
Ford visited the camp frequ-
emily and followed the progress
made by the youths closely. He
was so pleased with the net re-
suits he told AL Brown, camp di-
rector, that more camps of the
same type wuold be started next
YOUTHS NOVICE FARMERS
The Youths in Camp Legion
were given free reign when
they started the project. Brown
remained only in an advisory
capacity. Although most of the
boys were strictly "duffer" farm
ers, they appointed their own
bosses from among their num-
Der.
AT the end of the harvest they
had produced 5000 bushels of
field corn, $500 ears of sweet
corn. 1000 pounds of soy beans,
LOO bushels of tomatoes, 1850
bushels of potatoes, 500 pump
kins, 5000 pounds of squash and
wide variety of garden vege-
tables which were sold at a road
side market. -.
After the payoff, when most of
the camp members were prepared
to go out and seek jobs, Ford
called them together and gave
them jobs for the winter in his
automobile plants. Those under
Is were placed in the Ford trade
school.

Geologist Task
Grows Popular
For U.S.. Women

NEW YORK, Dec. 7. (UP)-
Geology, that practical science
which appeals to the rugged, out
door type of man. is attracting
more and more women, Ida H.
Ogilvie of Barnard college has re-
ported to the Geological Society
of America.
The report, emphasizing that
women have no, physical handicap
to overcome in geological work,
explains that women already are
holding responsible jobs in coal
and oil fields, as well as undergo
ing the hardships of scientific ex-
peditionary work.
"The majority of women work
ing in geology today are connect
ed in some way with the oil in
dustry," Prof. Ogilvie's report
said. I'm most cases, they are en-
ployed in the offices of petrole-
UNI companies. Occasionally the
woman geologist will work in the
oil field in conjunction with the
actual drilling.
WORK NIGHT AND DAY
Sample rock is secured, wash
ed at the we'll, and analysed. The
geologist brings her microscope
and lighting equipment and is
prepared to work night and day.
The situation, usually arising
when the we'll is about ready to
go, is called keeping up with the
WE'LL"
The Barnard professor report
ed that women find Especial APP
peal" in the out-of-doors phase
of geology. She said that her
Barnard students enter either the
practical or the teaching sides of
geology and once entrenched, sell
dom change over. Women en-
ployed on petroleum projects
might earn as much as $3.50 Il
month and expenses at the start,
her report adds. An average Of
four women a year enter geology
from Barnard college and this av-
erage is expected to rise sharply,
Prof. Ogilvie believes. Bryn Mawr
graduates like number of geolo-
gists yearly, while Smith, Welles-
ley and VaSsar are training a
number of women students in this
science.
ENROLL AT COLUMBIA
The department of geology at
Columbia university graduates
about 10 women each year into
the geologic fields.
The report emphasizes the
achievements of women already
established in this field. DR.. Kath-
crime Fowler Billings of Wellesley
sought gold and other minerals i'll
Africa some years ago, while Dr..
Carlotta ]. Maury has made sew
eral explorations in South Amer
lea to study fossils.
Other outstanding women geol-
ogists included in the report are
DR.. Anna Jonas Stose of the u.
S. Geological Survey, Washington;
Dr.. Florence Goldring, an expert
paleontologist with the New York
State Geological survey; Dr.. Mar
garet Cobb, economic geologiSt
affiliated with Amerada Petrole-
UNI corporation, and DR.. Julia
Gardner, professor of paleontol-
ogy at Johns Hopkins university.
Development Of surveys spon-
sored by both state and federal
governments and the gradual
breakdown of prejudice against
women in the geologic sciences
are creating fresh opportunities
for women" the report concludes.

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

T don't know what to do about my 14-year-old daughter" mother after mother writes. Sometimes the daughter who has her parents wor- ried and puzzled is younger than 14-sometimes a little older.
 But no matter what the adoles cent age, or where the letter comes from, the mother is faced by very much the same problem as the one I am repeating for you here.
 My 14-year-old daughter is boy crazy. So much so that she and her friends never talk about anything else. Their conversation is made up He said this and "He said that
 "She never comes directly home from school. Either she spends an hour or two or even more, at a neighborhood drugstore or else she is riding around in an older Stu- dents car with a crowd of boys and girls.
 "She isn't even content to stay horne after dinner in the evening but insists on going out, always on one pretext or another, but always, of course, to be with boys.
 Firmness Needed
 After all, she is still only child But I am afraid to be too strict with her for fear I will make her more boy crazy than ever. What can her father and do?"
 Well, first, this mother and father and all the others in the country faced by the same problem can stop worrying about what might happen if they put their foot down once in a while.
 I'm getting fed up with this busi- ness of youngsters feeling they own the earth. And with all the lopsided propaganda about not letting your children get away from you by being nice and sweet and SpinelesS and letting them do just as they please. Honest relations of the right sort should be established between par ents and children when the chil- dren are small.
 Tl any well-balanced household there is nice mixture of love, trust dAlNA 4CopCOU 1O1 duCLlO4IJys l Al1o 1o dS it should be. And the authority shouldn't be put aside just because a child it past childhood.
 Social Supervision
 There is no harm at all in a girl being interested in boys. And she is only going through a stage when she fills her conversation with "He said" and He did" Mothers and fathers shouldn't object to that.
 In fact, there is lot of good in y.ung peoples be ing together in crowds. But their activities should be in one or another of their homes, where an elder person can take the responsibility. They shouldn't be al- Lived to run around without any supervision.
 Parents who bemoan the fact that they haven't any control over young daughter shouldn't put any faith in nagging or preaching. The only way to keep children from en- tering an adult world too soon is for parents to have some backbone. Enough to keep their authority ard likewise the respect of their children.

everyone naturally thought ot Mar garet. And Margaret, of course, fell right in line.
 She asked her mother to come and live with her and share the tiny apartment her salary afforded. She had come to be very proud ot the apartment for it stood for independ- ence and a place to entertain her young friends.
 Her mother-lonely, bewildered. and thinking only of herself, ac- cepted the invitation. And though that was 10 years ago, she is still liyir-. with her still unmarried daughter.
 Margaret's life has changed a great deal in those 10 years. She has become as dependent on her moth- CT as her mother is on her.
 Her friends have changed, too Now they are people who either enjoy or put up with her material shadow. She has lost track of the gay crowd she used to enjoy.
 And the men she knew 10 years ago are all out of the picture. With no new ones in sight.
 Every one says, What splendid girl' when they think of Margaret. And some of them even add in all seriousness-"Isn't it fortunate that she has her mother with her?"
 Margaret has even come to feel that way herself and doesn't mind at all that her mother expects to be inclr~.d in her vacation plans.- and in every casual invitation given by Margaret's friends.
 Neither mother nor daughter real izes, that they took the least sensible way out of situation. That what everyone agreed was the natural thing to do cheated a girl of the right to lead her own life. And deprived a middle-aged woman of the chance to make try at stand ing on her own two feet. 1 Copyright, 1888, NEA Service Incl
