Huntington Park, Cal.-The dance
held by Local Union No. l13 on Febru-
ary II was huge success with prac-
tically all members in attendance.
Second Vice President Frank Hull
and Mrs. Hull enjoyed themselves
talking to old friends formerly from
the home town, now employed on the
coast.
We were pleased TO read news in
the Herald from our neighboring local
in Stockton and are certainly happy
in their success. We, also, would like
to extend cordial invitation TO any
member Of the Brotherhood visiting
California, to drop in on US anytime.
Brother Hull has been attending our
meetings regularly, we are glad to
report. We always enjoy his talks on
the doings of the Brotherhood both
here and in the east.
The weather is typically Californian; !;
sunny, warm, friendly.
We expect all members at the next
meeting because there is much to
bring forth for the advancement of
the organization. Convention time
draws near, and we want to be pre-
pared.-O. c. ll3.

And so it goes. Dozens of other
equally good stories could be listed that
deal realistically with the countless
problem situations in human lives.
Sometimes we read fiction merely to
escape boredom-that is when we pick
up one of Warehouses; inimitably
amusing chronicles. Sometimes we read
novels as a trouble antidote," to make
us feel more content with our own lives
Grapes of Wrath" Steinbeck'S much
discussed novel falls in this class But
whatever our reason, we can hardly
help gaining from the really sound
and worthwhile novels of our day, some
insight that will broaden and enrich
our own lives.

OPENING A WINDOW ON
TOLERANCE.

1t used to be true that women felt
bit guilty about admitting that they
liked to read novels, because it was
supposed to be a pretty frivolous oc-
cupation. Nowadays no one needs to
feel apologize about keeping up with
the good fiction of the day because
from it so much can be learned that
broadens our horizons, and makes us
more sympathetic individuals.
Surely understanding of other people,
and tolerance of their different ways of
thinking and acting is one of the things
that we all believe is striving for today.
Because we cannot all travel widely,
and learn to know intimately great
many different kinds of people, we need
not be cut off from all knowledge of
other peoples lives. In modern fiction,
we have wonderful opportunity to
learn about different patterns of family
life, and to study the ways in which
different conditions and experiences
affect the development of personality.
1t is hard to choose from among the
wealth of good books, but here are a
few that may help to give us little
wider prospective. 1.-THE Great Ameri-
can Family by Lee Shippey, tells the
story of young married couple whose
income is uncertain, and who make a
success of their family life by indomit-
able courage. Margaret Wilson'S 1.-The
KenworthyS" gives us a picture of the
effect on a sensitive child of conflict
between parents. In Mixed Marriage"
Margaret Banning shows how religious
differences make personal adjustments
imperative. Somerset Maugham'S "Of
Human Bondage" brings out how physi-
cal defects alter the course of per-
sonality development. Booth Tarking-
tons "Alice Adams" tells the perennial
story of the shallow, ambitious woman,
harming her children and husband by
her determination to live life according
to standards that are entirely material
istic. Josephine Lawrence, in eff I
Have Four Apples" warns against the
unhappiness that arises when a family
habitually lives beyond its income.
In the realm of character develop
ment, we have many powerful pictures
in recent fiction. Helen Hull in Candle
Indoors" shows how a mans life is
completely altered by his attempt, after
his wife's death, to bring up the
children he has been pretty much un-
interested in before. A. j. Cronin in
Citadel tells the story of a pro-
feSSiOnaI mans ctryUoIac 70 nnoLo .
life in accord with his ideals. Floyd

stand the efforts of an adolescent to

SEEK FUNDS
FOR Welfare
County Delays Action Until
Needs Are Listed; Call for
Bids on Supplies.

Action on raising approximately
100000 for the welfare department to
complete its work for the present year
will be taken Oct. 5, it was decided at
meeting of the st. Louis county COM
missioners held last week.
This figure represents the estimated
amount the fund will be overdrawn by
the first of the year.
Solution of the problem was deferred
until the october meeting because the
welfare board must submit an itemized
statement listing the needs for the re-
mainedr of the year. State law requires
this procedure.
The first large purchase of supplies
under the new state law requiring
counties to ask for bids on all materials
amounting to $500 or more in the ag-
gregate during a years time will be
conducted Oct. 5. Included are tires,
gasoline, lubricating oil, Diesel fuel,
anti-freeze, dynamite, fuse and caps.
1t is estimated that the highway de-
partment alone will save upwards of
$4,000 through calling for bids or this
material.
Until this new law becomes effective,
the Fourth district purchased these
materials within the district from in
dependent merchants, Commissioner
Jacob L. Pete states. While these mer-
chants will lose this business from now
on, the district as a whole will not be
out anything, he pointed out, because
the savings will be available for ad-
ditional road projects.

One of the items recently considered by
the county board was a petition from
the New York Mills country to close a
public road running through ceme-
terry nearby. Though the cause of the
closing was not discussed, it is under
stood that some of the young people of
the neighborhood had turned the grave
yard road into a Lovers Lane. The
board decided to close it.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-President
Roosevelt's flve-volume Public Pa
pers and Addresses" which, his pub
Usher charged, some booksellers
tried to Sabotage" today went on
the cut-rate shelves.
The publishing firm, Random
House, disclosed that while 5000 of
the 5000 sets published in April,
1888, had sold for the list price of
SIS, the 5000 others had been turned
over to a book dealer as "remainders
at little below what they cost lis. "
The Hyde Park library project, to
which the President assigned the
proceeds of the book, will net about
100000 however-about $3.50 on
the book royalties and the rest from
the previous sale of newspaper serial
rights and two magazine articles,
said Bennett Cert, president of Ran
dom House.
A month after the set was pub
lished, Mr.. Cert declared that some
of the Nations leading book sellers,
including several big department
Stores" had deliberately tried to
sabotage" the work. Mr.. Cert pre-
dicted then, however, that a second
printing would be called for before
the end of the year.
The 5000 unsold sets were bought
by Robert Franklin, who said he
would distribute them through trade
unions and other organizations.

Red Cross and Shipping
Heads See President

Wartime marine and relief
problems were expected to be dis
cussed at two White House con-
ferences scheduled by President
Roosevelt today.
First OF his meetings was to be
with Norman Davis, chairman of
the American Red Cross, and the
second with Chairman Emory Land
and Vice Chairman Thomas M.
Woodward of the Maritime Com
mission.
The American Red Cross already
has requested the International Red
Cross at Geneva, Switzerland. to
advise it what assistance might be
extended by the organization here.
Regarding the conference with
Maritime Commission officers, White
House officials said the meeting
had been requested by Chairman
Land and it was believed further
disposition of American shipping
during the war emergency would
be discussed. 1t was expected also
that there would be consideration
given the problem of war risk ma
rine insurance for which the Com
mission had asked greater statutory
authority last spring. Congress did
not act on the request at that time.
Mr.. Roosevelt also planned to
see Federal Loan Administrator
Jesse H. Jones and Assistant Secre-
tary of State Henry F.. Grady dur
ing the morning. He decided to
forego a weekend cruise on the Po-
tomac River.
