TORONTO, Jan. 11.-ViSitorS to
the New York World Fair next sum-
mer may get peek at the chubby
Dionne quintuplets on the site OF
the Soviet pavilion, which won't be
there
Papa and Mama Dionne are all
for showing the little girls at the
fair, but some opposition has de-
veloped among their guardians.
The worlds fair is nibbling, but
we have had no direct proposition
yet" Percy D. Wilson, official
guardian for the Ontario govern
ment and member of the quints'
Board of Guardians, said today.
Another guardian, Judge j. A,
Valin of North Bay, commented:
"They won't 60 to New York
with my consent. It's too risky. We
shouldn't let them out of the coun-
try
Premier Mitchell Hepburn of On
tario said the decision was up to
the Board of Guardians and DR..
Allan Roy Dafoe, the quintuplets'
physician. DR.. Dafoe would have
nothing to say until a definite BID
was forthcoming from the fair.
Henri ST. Jacques, Olivia Dianne's
attorney, said he believed it likely
the famed sisters, Who will be 6 in
May, would go to the fair. possibly
between mid-May and rlid-June.

Firm Upheld in Refusal
To Rehire Workers
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The National Labor Relations
Board yesterday upheld the refusal
of two indianapolis companies to
rehire eight employees because OF
their conduct during 1887 strike.
The board said it was mindful
that conduct on the picket line
cannot be expected to approach the
etiquette of the drawing room or
the conference table," but it found
that the employees in question had
engaged in violence or serious mis-
conduct"
1t concluded that the refusal Of
the Republic Creosoting Co. and the
Reilly Tar and Chemical Corp. to
reinstate the employees in the group
was not an unfair labor practice.
1t ruled also that the strike itself
was not caused by any unfair labor
practices on the part Of the COM
panies.
Although 1t sustained the COM
panies' refusal to reinstate the eight
strikers, the board found that 10
employees had been Disseminated
against for union membership and
ordered reinstatements and back

Those doldrums are with us again.
Musicians, singers, dancers, head
walters are going snow-blind these
nights-from looking at white table
cloths in almost linbroken expanSe.
January Is is the date to which
every one looks forward, for Janu-
ary Is, it is generally agreed, is the
date business will not be good un-
til. But all is not dullness on the
midnight scene, the business of
assembling this corner revealing the
usual collection of strange notes
to be contemplated Wonderingly.
Here are scribblings on a paper
napkin from the Lounge Riviera,
two of those cards on which Rus
sian Troika guests write their
names and addresses, request card
from the Cafe Caprice, the bill
from our hotel (unpaid, of course) i,
half a sheet of music and three
stray scraps of paper.
$ Atop the stack of notes is
one which reminds that no first
half of January doldrums settled
upon the Madrillon Sunday night,
the Madrillon being packed to the
gunwales or whatever night club
gets packed to. 1t was almost a
risk of life and limb to venture
on the dance floor and one 1877
FOUNDER was seen trying to hire
Bob Rodenberg as blocking hack,
to precede him around the floor.
A near quorum of the towns night
clubs was represented. Jean Cathon
came down from La Sale Versailles
to have fun on a night off end to
sing a song for the people; Ward
man Parks Metronome Room was
represented by Songstress Phyllis
Usher; the Shoreham Blue Room
by Barnee the bandmaster and his
favorite blond; the Raleigh Pail

did not hide from this old eagle
eye: the Earle Theater by a couple
of its nicer Roxyettes, Babs Robert

with the cold, these future trouble
makers do not stir in their tracks,
but if you apply heat to them they
thaw out at once and become very
active and interested in their life
work.
The larvae are most abundant in
the warmer climates as early as
May and as late as June. Eating
the leaves, especially in the opening
tips, is accomplished so quickly by
the greedy hordes that the plant is
unable to outgrow the injury. Only
the woody fibers are left and the
tops of the plant are white, as
though visited by late frost.
Unless something is done to de-
stroy the larvae of the first spring
generation the second crop will fare
even worse. Three ways are now
used to control the alfalfa weevil-
quarantine measures which will de-
lay its further distribution, the i'm
portation of foreign parasites to
keep this invader i'll check, and
direct methods of preventing dam
age to the crop. Since this forage
crop is at stake and the damage
amounts to vast sum of money
and the weevil, though small in
size, is great in numbers, the army
must be checked in its mad attempt
to consume the food intended and
needed for animals of value to man.

BY ELIZABETH WOOD.

One of the most important factors
in making the civilized man civilized
is that the learning and talents OF
the whole world are open to him and
he may pick and choose among them
for his own education.
The pickings and choosings OF
millions of men comprise an arena
in which all the best talents and best
learning battle to be heard, So the
best of each generation survives and
becomes available to all succeeding
generations. SO each man is not
only rewarded with the best of the
past for himself. but joins in MAX
ing contribution to the betterment
OF the human race.
If you lived under a totalitarlan
government, such as in Nazl Ger
many, you and your children would
be shut out from this by law and
under pain of death. Men with guns
will keep you from the best that
mans mind has contributed to mans
mind. Men with guns will prevent
you from joining the great winnow-
ing-out process Of the works Of your
own generation.
You Must Not Know.
You will not be allowed to know
of the existence of any science that
may be regarded as anti-Nazl in
itself or may have been contributed
by a Jew, a pacitist, Mason, an
anti-Nazi, or. even in some cases, by
a man who is not any of these but
prefers not to concern himself with
NaZi politics.
After centuries of struggle, science
has won the right in the modern
world to interest itself in facts eX-
clusively. and the discovery of facts,
but the dictators have turned back
the clock. They regard facts as dan
eerous and outlaw them and make
them unavailable to YOU.
You will never be allowed to read
anything-novel. poem, article on
mathematics or comic strip-by any
one who has offended the Nazls in
any way, even if by only existing
which seems to be the crime of the
Jews. You will never see a picture
painted by any one like that.
You will be allowed to read no
history except history that f1atters
the Nazi point of view. The Ma
tional Socialist Culture Committee
has forbidden any criticism Of art,
literature, music and drama. The
committee made that its job when 1t
discovered that the work they per-
mitted made such a wretched show
ing among those who remembered
the works they had outlaWed.
Art for One Purpose.
The committee has one point Of
view: There is no reason for the
existence of art unless it helps to
make the people more aware Of the
goodness of the state
So you will find truth being shot
dead automatically on sight.

prize-winning Thomas Mann, and
himself a writer of renown who
