HOMER MARTIN
Says Bridges Is Commun-
ist and Judge Gadola
Fascist

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. (UP)
President Homer Martin of the
United Automobile Workers, yes
terday charged before the house
committee on unAmerican activl-
ties that Circuit Judge Paul V.
Gadola of Flint, Mich, is a Fascist
and that Harry Bridges, west coast
labor "strong man. is a Commu-
mist. " -. ','s..,.
He made the accusations dur
ing lengthy testimony on the eff
fects of foreign isms" in the Am
erican labor movement, and cou-
pled it with a sharp attack on the
committee as political tool in
the hands of reactionary and vest
ed interests" ~
~ Martin went on the stand under
threat of subpoena and punitive &C
ton after postponing four previ-
ously scheduled appearances.
The dafk-haired, bespectaclea "a
leader of the Congress for Indus
trial Organizations powerful atfl-
late charged that Gadola had an
"unbelievable antagonism" to or
ganized labor, and that he report
edly had been seen, "many times
at Fascist meetings" in Flint.
at is also reliably reported that
he participated in meetings called
to help finance MussolinIs war OF
aggression in Ethiopia" Martin
said.
., Gadola, who issued an inJunc-
ton requiring auto workers to va
cate General Motors plants during
the 1887 sit-down strikes, testlhed
before the committee few weeks
ago that Gov. Frank Murphy OF
Michigan had been guilty of 'trea-
sonable" conduct in handling the
labor disturbances.
1t was this testimony, at the
height of Murphy's unsuccessful
campaign for reelection, that
caused President Roosevelt to re-
buke the committee for permit
ting itself to be used in an "un-
American" attempt to influence
the Michigan voting,
- "The only connection Judge Ga
dola had with any 'isms' puts him
squarely in the ranks of the Fas-
cists themselves" Martin said
''He is a notable hater of organ.
lied labor and of the activities OF
the labor movement.
He said that communists were
active in both the CIO and the
American Federation of Labor but
that their actual strength was
much less than popularly believed
because american workingmen
as a whole are as much opposed
to nazism, fascism and commun-
ism as any other group OF people
in the world"
Martin scoffed at denials by the
Australian-born Bridges that ne
was not a communist. Bridges. IS
facing deportation proceedings be-
fore the labor department. =,
"He can deny from now until
doomsday that he is a communist
but I won't believe him." Martin
shouted.
He also testified that commun-
lists were active in the Wisconsin
clio set-up and added that Gun
mar Nicholson, secretary OF the
State CIO and American News
paper Guild vice-president, was
"reputed to be one" -.
Committee Chairman Martin
Dies, D., Tex, questioned MaTtln
frequently on speeches he had
made during the bitter factional
row in the UAW in which ne had
accused his enemies of having
communist aid. Usually he nodded
his head in affirmation or remark

CO.EDS WAR AGAINST
PETTING RAIDERS

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal,
Dec. 1. (UP)-,The practice of
campus policemen flashlightlng
petting parties is driving romance
off the campus of Stanford Uni
versity and out into the neighbor-
hood hills where couples become
the victims of petting party BAN
dts, according to protests now
being made by scores Of co-eds.
An unusual number of these
holdups has taken place recently,
and as the bandits rob the girls
as we'll as the men, it is the coed
element that has taken up the
task of remedying the situation.
Stanford this year has only 500
co-eds against 5000 men students
with the results that the girls are
dated up almost every evening.
Formerly it had been the Gus
tom of boys to park on any one
of the score of beautiful roads
nearby.

How Australia Advertised
For q New Capital

THE Commonwealth of Aus
l. traHa decided in 1900 to es-
tablish.a a new capital, but left the
selection of the site. to the dis
cretion of Parliament. Thereby
hangs a story Of many years and
many battles.
For the Australian Parliament
almost at once fell into bitter
fight as to what city should be
chosen. A royal commission was
appointed to recommend several,
but when it returned its recon-
mendations Parliament was split.
In 1908 the House voted to name
Tumut as the site but the Senate
amended the House bill to name
Bombala. A long deadlock fol-
lowed.
In 1909 Canberra was selected.
Private and government lands
we're set aside and two years la
ter the commonwealth in world
wide competition advertised for
designs for the capital city. OF
the l26 submitted, the first prize
of more than $4,000 was awarded
TO Walter Burley Griffin of Chi
cago. The foundation stones Of a
commencement column" were
laid on March IL, 1913.
The outbreak of the World
War delayed actual building op-
erations until 1920 when the
Prince of Wales laid the corner
stone. The Parliament house was
opened on May 8, 1927, for the
first federal Parliament to sit at
Canberra.
Situated. in an amphitheater of
wooded hills, Canberra stands at
an elevation of 1000 feet, lies ap-
proximately 30 miles from the
coast, is 204 miles from Sydney,
429 from Melbourne, 2600 from
Perth. The name Canberra is of
aboriginal origin. 1t is pronounced
as if it were spelled Cambria"
with the accent on the first syl-
liable. The Parliament buildings
are shown here on a 1927 Aus
tralian commemorative. -,

Advice
By Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
If you would rather not, don't
print your answer to my letter,
but please do just tell me pri-
Vately: Is there any such thing
as love? You see I can't help
suspecting it's a thing that peo-
pie do a lot of talking about,
but don't really believe in. Isn't
that true?
The reason I'm asking you is
that have promised to marry a
man much older than myself,
who address me and can do
everything for me. He knows 1
don't love him. But l certainly
don't love any of the boys l
know, either. though a lot OF
them have tried to make me. I
am 18, and it seems as if I ought
to know by this time if there is
such a thing as love.
Of course, am fond of my
fiance. Nobody could help lik-
ing him. But I thought perhaps
I'd better ask you that question
about love before 1 marry him.
It's for his sake, as we'll as mine.
SKEPTIC.
You are none too sure Of
yourself in you skepticiSm, my
dear child. as anyone could see.
But I like your honest and
straightforwardness. My answer
to you is that love does really
exist-and that it's perhaps the
most important of all things.
There's nothing strange, at
your age, in you not having
fallen in love. You haven't met
the right" man, or your emo
tional development is a little
slow. Or perhaps your nature
may be somewhat cold.
But if you like and admire
your fiance, and if he under
stands the whole situation.
don't see why you shouldn t
marry him. There is little doubt
but that you will love him after
wards. Many of the happiest
and most la sting g marriages
have begun as your will begin.
And one of these days you will
wonder very much how you
could ever asked them the ques,
ton that is now puzzling you.

cards?
8. I would like to send a let
ter of thanks to some of the
nurses who were so kind to me
while I was in the hospital. Is
this all right?
/. Your letters of thanks
might read somewhat like this:
Dear Betty:
What a friend you are
dl1OayS so thoughttully and gen.
erouSly planning to bring them
happiness. Thank you, Dith all
my heart, for your goodness to
me 10hile tDaS in the hospital.

the apple and pinch off the
pastry underneath. Cover the

Large Audience at
VelUet Ball
BY Bah Lincoln

M UGH as they loved the
4'A d dancing, the gay
throngs last night at the May
flower, to swell the Chill
dren's Lunch Fund, were
happy and eager to pause
long enough to watch the
parade of gorgeous clothes
which was the outstanding
feature of a spectacular eve
ming.
Local society girls wearing
replicas of gowns of Presidents
wives and ancient queens
created the right atmosphere Of
expectancy for the exhibition Of
current styles which followed.
One lovely costume followed
close on the heels of another as
costumes for day and evening,
for town and country, swept
down the long runway in the
center of the Mayflower ball
room.
Trailing hostess gowns and
negligees in velvet and chiffon
included a breath-taking gray
velvet with a shoulder cape of
darker ostrich.
SENSATION OF SHOW
In the collection of evening
gowns, the one that set the
women gasping was a dark blue
velvet with a voluminous skirt,
worn beneath a long all
enveloping cape lined with flame
lame.
For Southern wear a violet
marquisette had a bolero Of
purple lace. A green taffeta
gown had a wide band of Amer.
lean beauty velvet inset below
the hips. A velvet cape in green
was lined With American beauty.
Garnet velvet with gray
chiffon scarfs trailing on the
floor was another striking
model.
RARE GEMS WORN
Jewels sent down from New
York for the occasion and on
display all day today at Gait &
Company were worn at the fin
ish of the show.
A superb set of rubies included
a necklace made of several
strands of ruby beads spaced by
bars of diamonds, with a huge
plaque of rubies and diamonds
in fancy cuts.
A debutante wore, with a long
pink velvet gown, marvellous
set of aquamarines set in dia-
monds.
The show was put on by Mrs.
June Hamilton Rhodes, of New
York, for the benefit of the Chill
dren's Lunch Fund.
Julie Hayden, appearing at the

ers following the show, in canary

VXTHEN we talk Of the
w makeup harmony,
there are a number of
things to consider be-
sides the color of the
hair or eyes and the
shape of the face. The
most important of these
is the color of the gown
you are wearing. You
know there are certain
colors that will have to
be humored or there
will be a jarTing dis
cordant note In the
whole ensemble. Greens,
reds and chartreuse are
among the most tenn
peramental, and when
wearing any Of these
colors or tints, one must
be very careful about
the rouge and lipstick.
So many of the good
lipsticks have a lot of
blue in them and others
show a decided orange
tint. You will avoid
the orange with all of
the difficult shades, AS

of rouge or lipstick. The
reds, or those with the
suggestion of blue, will
be in nice harmony
with nearly all of the
new shades of nail pol
ish.
You know the nail
polish is just as i'm
portant as the rouge
and lipstick when you
are inclined to glamor-
ize your makeup. And
another thing to bear in
mind II you would be
glamorous with make
up-do not introduce
more than one color
in a formal gown.
Trimmed and embroid-
cred frocks will detract
from the Importance of
the color harmony and
if you do wear mixed
colors, you may have to
omit the cheek rouge
and make a choice OF
a lipstick that blends
well with the predolni-
mating shade in your
colorS.
