Senator Aiken AssaiIs
Telegraph Merger Bill
8S the Associated Press

Senator Aiken, Republican, OF
Vermont told the Senate yesterday
that passage Of legislation authoriz-
ing merger of the Postal and West
ern Union Telegraph companies was
unwise and established an ''un-
usual precedent" II passed by the
House, he said, 1t would have the
effect of bailing out "Wall Street
speculstorsO in the Postal firm.
Senator Aiken, who opposed the
bill when it was before the Senate
last week, said he had been unable
to obtain stock lists and other in
formation he presented yesterday in
time to try to block passage.
Listing those he said were officers
and directors OF the Postal Tele-
graph, Inc, in 1910, Senator Aiken
remarked that, with the exception
Of three-one of whom was James
M. Lands, now director Of the once
Of Civilian Defense-all "are located
In or near Wall Street"
Those he named as stockholders
as Of May, 1912, included the firm of
Lehman Bros. New York investors.
Since agitation for the merger Of
the two telegraph corporations was
started" Senator Aiken said, there
has been constant and rather ac-
tive trading of stock in what is gen.
orally known to be an insolvent cor
poration. This legislation will have
the effect of rewarding SPECTATORS
who have more recently acquired
such stock at comparatively low
cost"

u. S. Needs Good Beer Halls
White House Conference Told
Defense Health Chief Tells Child Advisers
Of Juvenile Delinquency Problems in War

America needs more good, clean
beer halls conference at the
White House yesterday was told by
Mark A. McClosky of the Office
of Defense, Health and Welfare
Services.
Mrs. Roosevelt and dozens of chill
dren's advisers from all over the
country spent all day at the White
House discussing juvenile delin-
problems According to Mr. Nc
Closky of the recreation section of
DHWS delinquency could be cut
down if more high class beer
halls took the place of Railways
and bottle jobs"
Mr. McClosky disapproves, he
said, of dances with regulations that
the hostesses cannot be escorted
home by the servicemen attending
Within 10 minutes, he said, the
serVicemen and young women have
met outside the hall
What Youth Wants"
More intelligent recreational plan
ing, he declared, would provide
what the young people want
beer halls with the tables placed
right and the atmosphere right"
and yet all on a "high-class level"
The Executive Committee of the
group. the Childrens Bureau Com
mission on Children in Wartime,
met last night to draw up principles
for the entire other members These
are expected to be released today
Points cited by members yesterday
as important to the welfare of young
people in wartime included chan
neling of their desire to help into
healthy outlets" The girl who
picks UP" a serviceman may have a
sincere desire to contribute to the
war effort, said Frederick H. Allen
OF Philadelphia. Her energy should
be put to better use.
Members of the conference were
particularly interested in the op-
portunity for young people to help
farmers harvest their crops Most
other part-time war Jobs, it was de-
clared, tend to take more time than
they are originally intended and
cause nervousness in the children.
Spending Guide Needed.
A prime difficulty with increased
wartime earning power among young
people, declared Mrs. Sidonie M.
Gutenberg of New York, is the
tendency to get in trouble with their
new money. Children should be
taught to spend long before they
begin to earn, she said. Mrs. Roose-
velt stressed the same point, with
a plea that unless special adolescent
recreation is arranged money will
be spent for unsuitable adult rec
reation.

tion of the American Automobile

On motion of Mrs. Edward B.
Morris, secretary, it was recon-
mended that the hours of ration
boards be from . am. to $3.50 pm,
instead Of the present announced
hours of 9 am. to 4:30 pm. and
that the ofiices be kept open two
nights week. This change is ad-
visable, the resolution said, for the
accommodation of those who can
prove that they are not free during
daytime hours and whose business
with the boards cannot be trans
acted by another member of the

Mrs. Morris charged that the
boards have "adopted the practice
Of locking their doors to the public
often long before 4 pm when it
became obvious that accommodation
OF applicants already present would
keep their STATS occupied until reg
ular closing time"
'Hardships" Are Cited.
Mrs. Morris said she felt this prac-
tice caused "hardships" to those who
have to leave their places of en-
ployment to conduct business with
the boards.
Another resolution recommended
that the War Housing Center be
continued. It suggested, however,
that "the administrative authorities
OF the center be urged to stress the
greater responsibility of rooms in

conditions In near-downtown locali-
ties and thereby reduce the danger
of epidemics."
