CITY CLUB HOME
 BADLY CRASHED

Kansas City, Mo, Nov. 30-(UP) Seven hundred persons stormed the doors of the exclusive down. town Kansas City Club last night and shattered windows in sympathy with employees who are on strike.
 Thirty policemen, using tear gas and night sticks, dispersed them. Two persons were treated for minor injuries and eight demonstrators were arrested. Downtown theater- goers rushed to the scene adding to the confusion of the street battle which lasted almost half an hour.
 The marchers, /all members of American Federation of Labor locals had held a rally at their headquar- ters and marched in body to the club, an athletic and social haunt of business and society folk. A union band led the crowd, playing "ThereIi Be a Hot Time in the Old Town To- night" At a given signal they gath cred about the doorway of the club and a spokesman cried "Let 'em have it." Bricks were hurled through doors and windows and the skeleton staff of police at the scene called for

PLANE CRASH IS
 INVESTIGATED
Two Are Rescued-But All Could Have Been Saved
 Is Belief

San Francisco, Nov. 30-(UP)- The civil aeronautics authority in- vestigated today the crash landing of a luxury airliner in the Pacific ocean with the loss of five lives.
 Only Isadore Edelstein, 8 paroled habitual crimnial, and Capt Charles Baldwin Stead, the veteran pilot, escaped.
 The other five would be alive too, investigators said, had they ridden the crippled plane ashore, as did the survivors. The cabin of the United Air Lu&ury Liner was dry, even after drifting through the pounding surf onto the rocks near Point Reyes.
 Drown in Kelp Beds
 Coast guardsmen believed Cc-Pilot Lloyd Jones, Seattle, Stewardess Frona (Bobbie) Clay, San Francis co, and the passengers were drowned in heavy kelp beds as they swan toward the cheer cliffs rising out of the sea 30 miles north of here.
 The passengers were Philip Hart, president of the Pacific Bridge com- pany; Ivan B. Hef1eblower, San Francisco, partner in the Leland M. Kaiser and Go. financial firm, and Sidney L. Shontz, San Jose mining engineer, who was i'll and had an injury which prevented his swim ming.
 Edelstein was en route to Los An geles, to see his parents before leav- ing for Honolulu. He had promised Gov. Martin to leave the United States for good.
 The plane, a 14-passenger sky lounge, left Medford, Ore, at 12:30 a. m. Tuesday after waiting for rain- storm to clear.
 Stewardess ROuses Passengers
 "The stewardess woke up the pas sengers about 5:30," Edelstein said. "She told us we were off our course and were going to land somewhere in the Pacific ocean, Then she helped us take of our coats and shoes.
 'The plane hit the water with a terrific impact. I was knocked to the floor and got a bad gash on my mouth. Everybody took it calmly. I remember helping Miss Clay out. Pilot Stead was the last out"
 The wind and waves sent the plane shoreward. The light house at the point reported tha the planes lights remained on for eight minutes.
 we got the passengers out on the wings first" Stead said. "Then we grabbed blankets and climbed out after them. The co-pilot and two passengers were on the fuselage, back toward the tail. The stewardess and another passenger were on one wing and Edelstein and were on another.

Culture on the Payroll

are supported chiefly by revenue
from the advertising of merchants
and manufacturers. The amount
readers pay for most newspapers
and magazines represents only a
small portion of their actual cost.
Thus the very finest in literature,
art, and music is provided for the
people without cost, as a by-prod-
uct of the efficient working of our
commercial system.
Advertising does much more for
culture besides supporting the
bulk of our printed publications
and radio broadcasts. Our entire
economic prosperity is linked up
with advertising, which is an in
dispensable part of the important
process of large-scale selling on
the part of our merchants without
which our modern industries could
not operate and could not support
present-day cultural activities.
Advertising helps to bring down
the cost of the things necessary to
civilized existence and popular
ICES culture itself. The merchant
who advertises can sell for less
than the merchant who does not
advertise.
In many ways, advertising SUBJ
sidizes education for the masses
and stimulates people with the
necessary desire to attain higher
level of culture.

CONTRARY to the impression
~ among many scholars, culture
in this world is absolutely depend
ent upon economic prosperity. It
was no accident that the Peri
clean age came at time when
ancient Greece was very prosper
Gus and. had established a thou
sand trading posts in all parts of
the civilized world. When her
commercial prosperity died out,
the culture of Greece was at an
end too.
The great Augustan period of
Roman literature Powered when
the Roman Empire enjoyed it's
peak of commercial prosperity
and collapsed when the economic
system collapsed. The same was
true with the Italian Renaissance,
that golden period of art and Gull
ture.
At every age in history it was
the material wealth of industry
that stimulated and supported cul-
tural pursuits. AS a result, cul-
ture today is most widespread in
those lands where industry is most
productive.
In the United States we have
had $50 years of unparalleled pro-
ductivity. With only 7 per cent
of the worlds population living
here, we have produced one-half
of all the wealth on this globe.
That is why, in these same $50
years, we have been able to build
more schools and colleges than all
the rest of the world combined.
Among the greatest media for
disseminating culture in this coun-
try are newspapers, magazines,
and radio, in all of which we lead
the world. The combined circu-
lation of the $4,000 periodicals and
newspapers included in the CEN
sus is over 100000, 000-nearly 10
for every family. There are 700
broadcasting stations in the Unit
ed States and 80 per cent of all
families own radios.

cation and culture in our country

Youth Posses
Too Rapidly.
Use 1t Well!
By PATRICIA LINDSAY

T TITLE sister at the age of three
- loves to wear mothers high
heeled shoes and powder her nose.
A few years later she wants her
curls "done up' or cut short like
big sisters. When she is entering
her teen age she is so eager to be
an adult that she gets unruly, and
causes herself, and those around
her, lot of trouble.
Are you a little sister? Why do
you suddenly want to be old? It's
no crime to be young! Youth is
glorious-being young is thrilling, if
you will just take it in your stride
at the pace you should.
You think mother and daddy are
old meanies for keeping you away
from some parties and asking you to
get home early from others. You
get simply furious when mother in

you think of too sweet, simple and
girlish. Big brother is downright
nuisance when he suggests quietly
that you lay off heavy makeup and
petting in dark corners, cor else"
"Oh," you wall, twill they ever let
me grow up!"
Of course they will, sister, just as
quickly as you convince them that
you are not a reckless, heady little
tadpole, so eager for adult life that

These Thinqs
Are Essential

Begin right now keeping yourself
healthy and lovely. Eight or nine,
even ten, hours of sleep each night
(see why mother wants you home
early?). Use little makeup, for
young skins have a definite beauty
which should not be covered. A
rosy lipstick, speck of good pow
der. No mascara, eyebrow pencil,
rouge. Why hide that pixie allure
with cosmetics meant for fading
beauty? Qsn't big brother right aft
er all?). Let your skin breathe I'M
hampered, and keep your cheeks
and mouth rushing with color by
exercising. Walk in low-heeled
shoes whenever you can to develop
true and glorious posture, and eat
your meals regularly with few
sweets on the side!
Don't be stubborn about your
clothes. Simple sports frocks for
day wear, full-skirted gowns (never
too revealing) for evening.
Instead. of pouting, and TRADING
against proper restrictions, spend
those moments keeping yourself
fresh as daisy, and nicely
groomed with hair brushed to shin
ing glory and your nails manicured.
And above all, my dear, live
proudly! Don't cheaper yourself
through thoughtless acts (like
petting Unfortunately even
though you see other girls being fool

Prince Charming comes along you
will be awfully glad you didn't!

HINT-OF-THE-DAY

In your own home, are materials
for bath which beautify and invigo-
rate. A pound of sea salt, two cup
fuls of starch, oatmeal, bran, al
mond meal or small package of
baking soda thrown into the tub are
of great benefit in relaxing the
nerves and reviving the spirits. If
you have no shower under which
to rinse, then put the meal in small
cheesecloth bags which you can
make yourself. A quarter of pound
each of oatmeal and almond meal
mixed is a good combination. Scent
your bath if you wish with any scent

near the chimney. He stopped and in
