disclosed that Marian Anderson is be-
ing considered among the talent that
will be invited to the Executive Man

the White House would be a dramatic
slap at the reactionary Daughters OF

its refusal to permit the use of the

WOMAN THROWS
IYE ON MAN

Daisy White, us 9th Avenue North,

teenth Avenue South. had been very
good friends for long time.
In fact they had been so friendly
that Mr.. Denton evidently objected
when Miss White had callers, for when
he visited her early in the week he
found someone there to whom he OBJ
jected. s Id
When he made his objections
known, the lady told him to go away.
He insisted on coming in anyhow, in
fact he kicked down the door, and the
lady advised him not to come in.
What Mr.. Denton did not know was
that the lady, at the moment, was
cooking I've, or perhaps he did not
know the distress of the lady at having
her home invaded. .r
He crossed the threshold, and she let
him have it,
Seriously burned about the face, his
condition was reported as poor, Thurs
day. .isI
In municipal court Thursday, Miss
White was released on RPR, told to
report the twenty-eighth of March.

Police Exonerate
Man Accused
By Woman

Danial O. Wilkerson, 2432 Pleasant
Avenue, will probably tell his grand
children of the break he got in Min
neapolis
Arrested a week ago last Friday,
charged with having attempted an as
sault on Mrs. Zittel, near Franklin
Avenue and Fifteenth Avenue South,
Wilkerson was held pending an i'll
vestigation.
Newspapers of Minneapolis, all ap-
parently presumed guilt, if the stories
carried in their columns are to be in
terpreted.
Supervisor of detectives, Van Rick
ley, was assigned to the case, and
carried out an exhaustive investigation.
Close to a dozen persons were inter-
viewed, and every element pro and con
sifted.
Investigation revealed that Wilker-
son hal left the home of his girl friend,
and having missed his car, started to
walk home.
He found a woman lying in the
snow, and attempted to aid her. She
| on coming out of faint saw a colored
man near her, and Immediately became
| hysterical.
Frightened by her screams, he at
tempted to leave the~>scene but was
captured by three men and held for
the police.
The police were hesitant to accept
the guilt of the man until they were
sure. E-Et
Van Rickley, who is known as one
of the most proficient evidence of
ficers in the United States worked for
more than a week on the case,
1t was finally disclosed that hysteria
played a more important part in the
case than any other agency.
Wilkerson was released Monday, af-
ter the case had made the rounds OF
both the police and the County At
torney's office.
Much may be said as to the fairness
with which this case was handled, for
investigation revealed that Wilkerson
had once been convicted of felony and
punished in the state of Kansas.
Police were laconic when asked to
comment on the case. when they're
wrong we stick them, when they're
fright we protect 'em"

SATURDAY NIGHT
PRELUDE

WHAT RECOVERY?

Since 1929 the headliner of America
has been Recovery" After ten years
of talk, let us ask reason into the pic
ture and analyze the alleged recovery
that has employed so many alphabet
cal captions in an effort to prevent
mental and moral collapse of a trust,
ing people.
The word recovery" suggests that
we have lost something. What have
we lost?
Let me divide human society into
three sections and then repeat my
question.
1st--Tife rich so-caiied s--.'
2nd-The regularly employed
3rd-The unemployed C'dis-employed'
is the better word.)
Let me give Section a name, lie
"Mr. Organized Creed" and as you
read what follows, be very sure that
you don't confuse the benevolent men
and women stewards of Gods
wealthy with this fellow, "Organized
Greed"
Let me here and now say to the
philanthropic men and women of the
Twin Cities who have the welfare OF
underprivileged children and elderly
folks in their hearts, let me say, God
bless you.
Our tribute to you is hereby put on
record.
Your sympathetic interest and help
fulness ito the least of these" has
given you a place in the hearts of the
poor, of whom it was said, aye have
with you always"
We all know that to be wealthy is
not wrong, but to be greedy is one
of the seven deadly sins.
Now you, Mr.. o. c., we have other
words to you, other feelings toward
you. You are the successors of thai
group to whom it was said, aye de,
YOUR widows houses" aye bind heavy
burdens and grevious to be borne
However, we'll give you a chance tc
speak for yourself.
What recovery do you want? Wha
have you lost?
Oh, you lucky selfish rich, you fel
lows in all the brackets from $l00,00'

Admires Heirloom
Man Is Fined

! When John Smith, 80, of 3655 Smell
ing Avenue gets drunk he takes pride
in his family history
When he came home drunk We'd
lnesday night, he fell to musing of the
heroic exploits of his ancestors, SO he
dragged the old horsehide trunk out
of the attic, and looked over those
priceless relics that bespoke the long
gone days
All went well until he found the
family horse pistol.
He ruminated the events that made
possible the winning of the west He
felt surge of patriotism and imagined
he was Forts Henry and Donne1son.
Finally filled with military ardor he
stuck the trusty piston in his belt, and
stalked into his living room.
Whether it was the design on the
wallpaper, or shadows cast about the
room will never be known. 1t is GER
tain that the Smith honor and glory
must be upheld. Five shots he fired
in four walls and ceiling Five times
plaster sprayed as the bullets found
their mark.
One call was all that was necessary
for police to take Smith, gun, and
glory to the place where such things
are kept when naughty He was fined
ten dollars in Municipal court Thurs
day morning, and even the book OF
family history could not save him. He
told the Judge he had had that pistol
for long long time. The judge told
him it would be long, long time be-
fore he would have it again.

Pleasing
 The Man
BY CHLOE JAMESON

There are men who must have their breakfast eggs three hundred or more times each year, and never tire of them, apparently. But who is to say their enjoyment might not be a bit keener If the eggs were seasoned differently at least once or twice each week. By which I mean something more than merely changing the order of their service from boiled to poached to fried to scrambled eggs.
 POached Eggs on Anckovy Toast
 What is to hinder us, for ex- ample, from giving delicious fillip to the toast on which the poached eggs ride to the early morning table? Cut toasted bread into cir cles, spread with a thin application of anchovy paste, and on this place well-drained poached egg. Send at once to the table.
 Poached Eggs With Tomato
 Or try giving the eggs bed of diced tomato meat, well seasoned and tossed lightly in butter until cooked but not too mushy. Place the tomato meat in the center of fried bread croutons, or, If more con- venient, spread 1t over rounds of hot buttered toast. On top place the poached egg, and sprinkle with little very finely chopped chives or parsley.
 Another nice egg dish is made by beating the eggs until light (allow two for each person., adding 2 table spoons heavy cream, pour into flat buttered saucepan, add 2 table spoons each of chopped tomato meat and chopped mushrooms lightly sauted in butter. Cook as you would an omelet and serve at once, on toast.
