America Won't Tolerate
Dictator, Cooley States
Districts Representative Defends New Deal
Program; Two Congressman Make Light Of
Huge Expenditures and Point to Results
Achieved

There is no danger of a dictator
ship in the United States for it is
Just not a part of the makeup of
Americans to tolerate any such forir
of government. Congressman Harold
d. Cooley, of the fourth district, in
which Vance county is located told
an audience in the court house here
last night in the only Democratic
rally of the present election cam
paign.
II have no fear for the destiny Of
this State and nation" the congress
men declared, answering criticism
that has been levelled at the New
Deal from that angle. He said the
one act of President Roosevelt since
he has been in office that was be-
yond the pale of the law and his au-
thority was his first act after taking
office, on March 4, 1888, that being
the closing of all banks throughout
the nation, and ordering that they
stay closed until hey could open
again in safe and sound condition.
He said the President was whole
heartedly supported by the entire ma
ton in that act.
Mr.. Cooley and Judge John H. Kerr,
congressman from the second North
Carolina district, were the speakers
at the rally. Both gave a vigorous
defense of New Deal policies, and out
lined benefits they said had accrued
to the country as the result.
Mark H. Stone, county Democratic
chairman, presided at the meeting,
and Judge Kerr was introduced by
D. p. McDuffee of the Henderson
bar, and Mrs. j. T.. Alderman pres
ented Mr.. Cooley.
Music by Band.
Prior to the start of the program,
the Henderson high school band gave
several numbers: The band marched
through the business section to the
court house from the American Lee
gion hut, where the two congressman
were honored at dinner before the
speaking.
The court room was filled to over
flowing for the addresses. All seats
were taken and many lined the aisles

GLENN DALE DUE
TO GET ADULTS
Commissioners Approve
Request for Transfer of
Some Patients.

The District Commissioners yester-
day approved a request by Health
Officer George C. Rutland to place
adult tuberculosis patients in the
Childrens tuberculosis Hospital at
Glenn Dale, Md.
The Commissioners placed two con-
ditions on their approval, however.
First, only emergency cases" of adults
will be admitted to the children's SAN
atorium and, second. officials OF the
hospital will be required to observe
strict segregation.
The Commissioners action ended a
controversy which arose about a year
ago when former Commissioner George
E. Allen overruled an order by DR.. Ruiz
land setting aside a section of the
children's building for adults. Mr..
Allen had opposed this move despite
its Endorsement by the tuberculosis
Advisory Committee of the Health De-
partment.
1t was understood the health officer
renewed his request for the change
after learning that there are Is adult
tubercular patients in need of hospital
lzation with no space available either
at Glenn Dale or Gallinger Hospital.
The adult ward at Glenn Dale has
been filled to capacity ever since 1t was
openend. but occupancy OF the 296-
bed juvenile building has rarely ex-
ceeded 200, DR.. Rutland explained.
The health officer said strict pre-
cautions will be taken in assigning a
limited number Of adult emergency
cases to the childrens ward. Adults
placed in the juvenile wing will be
IN rooms to themselves on the first
floor, and will not come in contact
with young patients, DR.. Rutland
added. The first admissions probably
VIII be made tomorrow.
This step is being taken to meet a
grave emergency" DR.. Rutland de-
clared. AS conditions are now, there
are many men and women tuberculosis
sufferers who should be in an insti-
tuition, not only for their own sakes
but to protect children in their house

c B 0CANAL DEAL
NEARLY FINISHED
Plans Going Forward for
Restoration of 168-Mile
Water Route.

The $4,000, 900 purchase Of the old
C. a. o. Canal by the Government is
virtually completed and plans are
going forward for the restol alton OF
the l68-mile waterway and the con-
version Of its right-of ways, from l2O
to $50 feet wide, into recreational
areas.
Justice Alfred A. Wheat signed an
order in District Court yesterday au-
thorizing the receivers of the canal
company to convey title upon pay
ment by the Government OF the

final approval by Secretary Ickes.
Justice Wheat also authorized sale
for 500 900 to the Baltimore d. Ohio
Railroad of strips Of canal property
paralleling B. d. o. tracks which may
be used in enlarging the trackage.
Development plans for the water
way, which runs as far as Cumberland,
Md, include restoration as Junction
ing canal west OF Washington to
Seneca Greek. Md. This will entail
rebuilding OF ks, gates. sidewalks and
ducts and restoration OF the Seneca
Greek diversion dam, reconstruction
of the noted Great Falls Tavern and
rebuilding of the old toWpath.
Funds for the project have been in
hand since July, when the P. w. A.

struction Finance Corp, acquired
through sale Of p w. A. bonds
Courts in the District and Maryland
have authorized the receivers to ter
inmate all leases of canal property be-
fore the sale is finally approved.
The Park Service however, whose
office of National Capital Parks will
have jurisdiction over the new develop
ment. has indicated it will issue Federal
permits to lessees whose occupancy is
not in the immediate path Of removal

whom she doesn't have to divorce in
couple of years
HE question of what men really
like in women is even more I'M
soluble after marriage than before.
The reason that many husband is
disappointed in his wife is because
she doesn't know what he expects
OF her. She notices, perhaps, that
he is always talking about what a
beautiful gown some girl had on, or
hoT wellgro0med some woman is.
Fine. she thinks; he wants me to
look like an Illustration from a fashion
magazine. but when she buys 3 lot
OF fine and expensive clothes she finds
out that that wasn't the big idea at
all. that it is the bargain counter
addict and not the wife with he
specially shop complex that he pre-
fers.
Or perhaps it is the wife who goes
domestic, who pinches pennies and sets
before her lord Lucullian feasts, think
ing that is the way to please his
fancy. and who finds out that that
was her mistake when he leaves her
to stay with the children while he
steps out with platinum blends. And,
vice versa, the playgirl finds out. like
as not, that what her husband yearns
for is fireside companion.
Men are always complaining about
being disappointed in women. 1t is
their own fault because we have never
found out what they want us to be. If
we knew. we would be it. for We strive
to please. DOROTHY DIX.

What type Of woman do they prefer?
What qualities must a woman have to
come up to their ideals? What should
woman do to please them? What
do they expect of woman as sweet
heart and wife?
No matter what sort OF bluff the
advanced of our sex may put up. in
our hearts We know that the chief end
OF Woman is to please man For not
only does her ability TO get a husband
depend upon her doing it, but also does
her success in business. Virtually all
OF the pleasures and perquisites in life
come to woman through the favor Of
men, and SO women would be glad
enough to make themselves as men
want them to be if they only knew
what was expected of them.
But they cont know With all their
prying and probing, they have never
been able even to get a glimpse of
mems dream girl and hence are I'M
able to copy her. All that they can
do is to guess at what she is like, and
mostly they seem to guess wrong.
So we have the pathetic spectacle Of
multitudes of women struggling blind
ly to come up to some mans hearts
desire and failing because they have
not the faintest notion of what he is
yearning for. They don't even know
what he wants them to look like, or
what he wants them to do. Does he
like EN- thick or thin, wild or tame,
no woman can unriddle
OF LATE years. for instance, it has
been the feminine conviction that
so far as pulchritude went, men were
committed to the living skeleton school
Of beauty and that the more girl
looked as If she were tubercular case,
the more she caught the masculine
eye. But is this true? Do men really
like angles better than luscious curves?
Do they prefer an anemic, UNDER
nourished-lo looking girl to a girl who
is strong and vigorous and corn fed?
Again. no woman knows. but on the
offchance that men do admire bones
more than fat, women are going
through agonies of starvation that
qualify them for martyrs crown
and-grotesque neutrality-suspicious. their
sufferings are all in vain and men like
plump armful better than doctors
bill after all.
Then there is the matter of a girls
personality. Girls aren't PETERS or
prudeS, gay girls or mammals little
helpers. quiet or vivacious because
they were born that way. No, indeed.
They are trying to be what they
think men want them to be, and
here again they are stumbling along
in the dark They don't know whether
men like girls who can drink them
under the table, or those who keep
themselves on a pedestal. ,
They don't even know whether
men prefer the girl who Is quiet and
restful or the one who runs them
of their feet; or whether they want
girl to be all tongue or all ears.
There is evidence both ways because
while the girl whose lips are free
lunch counter for every Tom. Dick
and Harry gets more dates, the girl
who saves her kisses for the only
man Is more Likely to get husband
