great talent, but you are sure to
have certain aptitudes. things for
which you have turn" for doing
Maybe you have a head for figures
and always got the highest mark in
mathematics in school. Maybe you
are handy with the needle and can
take a wisp of velvet and a bunch
of flowers from the 10-cent store
and turn them into a hat that looks
like Paris confection. Maybe you
can put on a hand-me-down from
the bargain basement and make it
look like a million dollars by the
way you wear it, Maybe you have
a way with children so all the kids
in the neighborhood follow you
wherever you 60. Maybe, as the

McNutt Calls WiIIkie

BY the Associated Press,

by tne hSSOClbleQ fTeSS.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Sept. o.
Federal Security Administrator Nc
Mutt asserted last night that Wen
dell L. Willkie had developed .
hatred for Roosevelt that is un-
equaled in any place this side Of
Nazi Germany"
He charged in a speech broadcast
nationally that Mr. Willkie left the
Democratic party and became "the

cause the Democratic party and Mr..
Roosevelt had relentlessly fought the

His idea of it," Mr.. McNutt told
Massachusetts, Democrats at a pre-
State convention diner, lis complete
license to operate in any way which
will give the biggest returns to the
operator"
Mr.. McNutt's prepared address
carried long paragraphs questioning
Mr. Wilkes fitness ito restore con-
fidence and make America safe for
private enterprise"
Speech Cut Short.
Except for the charge that Mr.
Willkie had become the Nations No.
Roosevelt hater,' the principal
pints of Mr.. McNutt's prepared at
tack never reached his audience, for
his radio time expired at that point
and he abandoned his prepared
speech for an extemporaneous talk
in support of the New Deal
In this latter part of his speech.
the security administrator forecast
the defense program would create
4,500000 new jobs at the end of 10
months and that 3.5O0,000 other jobs
would be created indirectly. 80
that every employable person will
have job at the end of that pc
Rod"
In the undelivered part of his pre-
pared address, Mr.. McNutt had pre-
faced his discussion of Mr.. Willkie
as business man by asserting that
Willkie could not object to being
judged by ordinary business stand
ards"
Cites Stock Shrinkage.
He then added Immediately that
the common stock of Commonwealth
& Southern, which Mr.. Willkie
formerly headed had suffered a
total shrinkage in value of almost
s700 100000"
Il don't believe" he said, that
the American people are going to
take seriously that claims of a man
whose own company Topped from
S25 to 81 a share that he is just the
man to restore confidence and make
America safe for private enterprise.
Mr. McNutt asserted 1T is no an
swer that the depression is respon-
sible for this unbelievable collapse
in market value" He added:
Mr.. Wilkie says it is the Roose-
welt policies and the Democratic
administration that caused such
loss to the stockholders of Common
wealth g. Southern. But the record
shows that there are other reasons"

Heat Conductivity
OF HeIium Studied

Why liquid helium behaves Sc
mysteriously as a conductor of heat
has been the subject of many ex-
periments recently by P. L. Kapitza
director of the Institute of Physical
Problems in Moscow. The expert
ments were made with liquid helium
at extremely low temperatures and
prove the presence of powerful heat
transmitting currents. The thermal
conductivity of helium is 1000 times
greater than that of copper. This
thermal super -conductivity is OBJ
served only when liquid helium is
in motion. Kapitza demonstrated
that in a state of rest liquid helium
conducts less heat than do other
substances. The super -conductivity,
he suggests, is due to unusually rapid
eddy currents in the mass.

the world are the people who have
got into the kind of work for which
they are not fitted. Don't be one
of these Don't go into some line of
work because Mary or Susie is doing
it. 1t may be all right for them
and all wrong for you.
Then I would urge you to study
your job and to make yourself an
expert in whatever you are trying
to dc. The main reason why men
are paid more money for their
work than women are is because
when man picks out career he
expects to follow it as long as he
lives. while girl regards her work
as Just a temporary job.
Now, maye you will marry and
maybe you won't. In these days
it is by no means a foregone con-
clusion that every girl will get a
husband. nor is it certain that even
If she gets a husband that he will
be able to support her.
And never forget even for mo-
ment that you are going to write
your own price tag. and in the end
what you will find in your pay en-
velope will be just exactly what
you rate in efficiency.
One woman gets a hundred dol
lars for making dress, another
one gets three. One woman is a
ten thousand dollar year chef
another is ten-dollar- cook
Decide which you are going to be-
1t is up to you.
When you come to work. dress
the part. Wear plain, sensible
clothes that make you look like an
efficient business woman instead OF
debutante who has Just dropped
In to see papa on her way to a
cocktail party.
Make up your face before you
leave home and trust to luck that
1t will stay that way until you have
leisure to 60 to the dressing room.
Don't spend the time that belongs
to your boss in plastering on lip
stick and making up your eyes.
Don't lower your efficiency by
staying out all night at parties and
coming to work so sleepy and tired
you make all sorts of blunders.
Don't wear the clothes and do the
things that will make you Ill 50
that you will lose time. Executives
soon find they can do without girls
who are always on the sick list.
And forget the boy friend while
you are at work. Because you have
quarreled with him is no reason
for swapping a customers head OF
and giving her blue ribbon when
she asks for green. Love dreams
and business don't mix. Keep them
separated. And don't forget that
after you break up with Tom you
will be awfully glad you didn't lose
your good job on his account.
