until last December, Oscar Einstein,
middle-aged immigrant from the
Nazi nation, was preparing here to-
day to start from scratch in his
newly adopted homeland.
Einstein, who is studying at Fres-

problem of earning a living in q
country whose language he could
not even speak six months ago. He
is enrolled in English and com
merce classes.
Although born and raised in Ger

Hull Flags Plan
For Vote on War

WASHINGTON, March 2. CUP
Secretary of State Cordell Hull
said today that a proposed consti-
tutional amendment requiring q
national referendum before this
country could declare war is in
compatible with the representative
form of government.
Hull expressed opposition to the
proposal at a press conference
Resolution calling for such con-
Stitutional amendment was intro
duced by bipartisan bloc of 12
senators yesterday.
The national referendum would
be necessary before war could be
declared by this country in all cases
except in the event of invasion,
under terms of the proposal
Hull said that the present form
of government, in which congress
has final control over declaration
of war, has proved wise and prac-

standing authorities on folkdancing,
said the best thing about glitter
bugging' is that it is leading the
youth-and the oldsters-from the
temptation of allowing their bodies
to go to waste"
"Jitterbugging is essentially heal
thy and wholesome" he said "You
see, people are half dead today.
They're using their brains all the
time and letting their bodies go to
waste. After all, your physical be-
ing is the greater part of your
natural living"
People expressed happiness, ex-
citement and uninhibited rhythm
by "jitterbugging" in the pre-
Christian era of England and most
Of the rest of the world" he said.
Look" he exclaimed as he began
jumping up and down and waving
his arms. mo technical form exists
in jitterbugging. We have traced
folk dances in Central Europe that
are essentially the same as the
war dances of the American In
dian, all because people generally
express the same emotions in the
same way"
The Lambeth Walk, Big Apple,
Suzie Q, and Shag simply are re-
iuvenated folk dances, he said.
People want TO dance together
and have lots of fun in groups" :"
he said, slowing his own tempo.
They're beginning to tire of just
moving around the floor with a
member of the opposite SEX"
Kennedy thinks American popular
music has failed to produce much
originality. The songs and tunes
that appeal to night club fans never
will be looked upon as American
folk tunes, because they are too
commercial" and only an expedient
to dancing,
His study of Hillbilly music in
America has shown numerous pieces
that haven't been changed in a
single note or word from songs
sung thousand years ago by An
glo-SaXon peasants" he said.
Kennedy has devoted the last
~ of his 46 years to prying into
the renaissance of folk dancing and
music. He came here to give a
series of lectures and demonstra-
tions.

New Double Price
System Proposed

WASHINGTON, Mar. 2. CUP)-
Administration economists are con-
sidering today a new version of Sec
retary of Agriculture Henry A,
Wallace's "two price plan" for
distributing surplus food stocks to
needy citizens.
The new plans, said to have orig
mated in the department of agri-
culture, would permit the distribu-
ton of excess food supplies to the
poor through established business
channels, under a government sub
Sidy.
Relief clients and Works Progress
Administration employees, under the
proposal, would be supplied with
federal scrip to exchange for food
at private grocery stores.
The government would reimburse
the private dealer in cash for the
scrip.

So Sally, who arrived by plane
from San Francisco in the morn

it up to John Krimsky, director o!
entertainment, and Maurice Mer-
mey, director of exhibits and con-

had been saving up for Whalen-
that if she puts on a show the girls
won't even wear carnations.
"Mr. Mermey was very much in

Clothes make the man. and
though a bath does not make a
carrot. it surely helps . and here's
the proof:
A dirty carrot brings $l.10 per
crate; a bathed carrot, as prepar-

shed in Holtville, brings $1.60 on
the New York market.
The washing machine, which
bathes the carrots, shown in the

year from specifications furnished
by K, K. Sharp, manager of the
