 THE following story had editors around Texas points scratching their heads:
 Los Angeles-Film Actress Isa- bel Jewell was granted a divorce from Paul Marion, also of the screen, today on her complaint that he treated her semore like ser want than a wife,

 ANTI-LABOR laws don't always pan out as their sponsors antici- pate. The vicious Smith Con- nally" Act, far example, has in many cases boomeranged-and be- como 'sstrike promoter instead of ''strike preventive" The mis- called "anti-viOlence" law of Ar kansas has just run into a similar snag.
 That measure, put over by the Fascist-minded Christian Ameri- can Association,' provides jail terms for ''violence" or ''threats of violence" in labor disputes. Advo- cates hoped to use that to knock out unions.
 However, down in Little Rock, at the "Open shop" Brown Car ment Company, anti-uniOnists tried by force to keep out employees who became union members. As a re- suit, labor chiefs in the state are preparing to prosecute the com pany and its ''stoOges" for viola ton of the state law. Proceedings under the Wagner Act are also planned.
 PAINTERS Union, l86, of New Haven, has just bought another $500 War Bond, bringing its to- tai of War Bond purchases to $2,- OOG. Some Is members of the Local bought $1OO bonds each Wednesday night, and 80 per cent of the membership are under the payroll deduction plan for bonds. Not bad. Secretaries of all Locals are urged to let us know of War Bond purchases, SO that organized labor may get full share of the credit for putting the Fifth War Loan over the top!

Your Dollar
 By CONSUMERS UNION
CANNED TOMATOES

Canned tomatoes are a good food buy. They're rich in vitamins A, B-1 and C as well as minerals And Grade C tomatoes give you just as good food value as Grades A or B. There's no need to buy high quality brand, if you're going to use the tomatoes in a soup or a sauce where Wholeness doesn't matter. Most brands are not grade labeled and in its tests of 3l. brands Consumers Union found little relation between price and quality.
 HAIR DYE
 Don't dye your hair unless you have to, Consumers Union advises. No hair dye is both safe and effec- tive. But some hair dyes are better than others and for the benefit of those who must color their hair. GU rates the most important types.
 Coal tar "dyes" such as Golden Clint, Lovalon and Nestle Colorinse are harmless, but they do not last. Whatever tint they give will wash out when you shampoo your hair or get caught in the rain without an umbrella.
 Amine-type dyes such as Eternol, Lakro, Loxo1, Rap-I-Do1 and Roux are most effective But for some per sons they are highly poisonous. Use of the dye by such persons may result in severe injury. Therefore you should never use any anime dye without preliminary skin test to determine whether or not you are sensitive and the skin test should be made each time the dye is applied Your sensl- tivity may change between times, and so may the composition of the dye.
 Henna dyes are harmless, but they produce only reddish tints. Metallic dyes are the most common variety, but they also are danger Ous. Furthermore, they produce poor results.
 Don't try to apply dye yourself, GU advises. Go to an expert hairdresSer who knows how to get best results. And don't permit any dye whatever to be used on your eyebrows or lashes. All of them are dangerous to the eyes
 ASPIRIN
 All aspirin tablets, whether marked ME-, LISP. or just plain aspirin, are required by govern ment regulations to meet the same high standards of purity. And Con- sumers Union found in tests of 48 brands that all but a few did meer these standards, and even these few deviated so slightly as to be acceptable.
 Since all brands are the same qual- lty, GU says, there's no point in pay ing extra for well-known name. You get exactly the same aspirin in brands selling for 7c or 12c per hundred as you do in Bayer's at 59c, Squibb at 49c or Tabloid at 85c.
 Although aspirin is about the safest known pain killer, its use is not entirely without danger. In the first place, some few people are sensitive to it, and suffer from skin eruptiOns and other unpleasant ness when they take a dose. Second

Medical Care Is
Stressed By Women

The State Council of the N. c.
Federation of Home Demonstra-
ton Clubs, representing 1900
clubs and $4,000 rural women,
centered the program of its recent
annual meeting in Raleigh around
better medical care for farm peo-
pie.
An outline of the problem as it
exists in North Carolina was pre-
sented by DIR. c.. Horace Hamil-
ton, head of the Department of
Rural Sociology at State College.
The means which are available
to assist in solving the problems
were discussed by E. B. Craw-
ford of Chapel Hill. The work of
the State Medical and Hospital
Care Commission was given by
Tom Pearsa1l of Rocky Mount.
The Council passed a resolution
endorsing the plan to transfer to
local governments, without cost,
surplus medical equipment and
medical supplies, which the Ar
my and Navy will have on hand

gested that such equipment and
supplies be used in equipping hos
pitfalls in rural communities where
they are so seriously needed.
The State Council further urg-
ed the home demonstration clubs
to take the lead in working with
all agencies and organizations in
terested in the welfare of youth
to provide program for reducing
juvenile delinquency through

recreational facilities, and call

Registration Hits New Peak
In Larger Cities OF The u. S.

New York, - Registration for
the presidential election, Is days
away, is at an all-time peak in
the nations largest cities, an AS
ISOLATED Press survey showed
this week.
Including the service men and
women who have applied for bal
lots, slightly more than 12,O00,-
900 persons have qualified for
voting in cities of more than $780,
600 population.
The number registered in these
cities in 1910, a banner year in
most sections of the country, was
11,215,461, compared with $685.
748 in the "off year" 1912.
IL Cities Show Increases
Each of Is cities over the half
million mark reports higher regis
tration than in 1910 except st.
Louis, which expects a drop of
$4,000 to 10000 when official fig
ures are available.
Whether this years record re-
gistration will produce a CORES
pondingly high vote will not be
known, of course, until election
night or even later in cities which
do not count military ballots with
, the others. ..
In 1910 the 10 cities combined
vote was approximately 10000
600, or more than one-fifth of the
total popular vote of 49,815,312.
Their combined vote dropped to
around 6,650,000 in 1912.
Here are the registration in
creases over 1910:
New York-216,675, taking into
consideration the 380,601 military
ballots mailed.

of good people along with the bad.
General Sherman is reputed to
have given a good definition to
war, but in his days the fighting
forces did not possess the modern
arms that armies have to-day.
However, you must realize, that all
the blessings that these United
States now enjoy, have been Sc
cured for our present generation
by the process of war. 1t is now
our turn to sacrifice so that gener-
ations as yet unborn may have at
least an equal opportunity to those
which we now enjoy-if not i'm
prove things. This is price Ma
tions seemingly must pay for lib
erty, justice and equality. These
priceless treasures not only must
be guarded, we must fight for them
if necessary. Apparently, there is
no easy way out if we wish to con-
tinue to live as free peoples. Frank
ly, there is nothing nice about war
no matter how you may look at it..
To win is bad enough, but to lose
would be much worse. That is
why the United States and her AL
lies must fight this war to finish,
and offer to our enemies only the
terms of unconditional surrender.
After the last shot has been fired,
We'll still have to go on fighting to
win the Peace. Only after this has
been won, can we really call it Vic
tory. And so it is. Your sailor
boy husband is now a part of a
