Hoover told D. A.

UNIQUE DIPLOMAT

For a long time, one of the root problems in the State Department has been that U s. diplomats get too steeped in the rarefied atmos- phere of pink teas, protocol and Old World diplomacy forgetting what the United States is like
 This is not entirely their fault. When man is forced to live out side the US.A. for five or ten years at stretch, naturally he takes on habits, the accents, the eccentricities of foreign countries. Even living in Washington, U. s. diplomats tend naturally to hob mob with their own set, see little of Congress or the average man in the street, forget how the every day American citizen feels and thinks.
 A new, livelier, more American group of career diplomats have been entering the State Depart ment with broader, more pro- gressive viewpoint than the old broad A" boys carefully culled from Harvard. However, when a youngster, starting at the age of about p, stays on the job for sev- eral years, he gets stale and needs a refresher course
 That was what Laurence Dug gan, political advisor to Hull on Latin American affairs, decided the other day. One of the best young men in diplomacy, he had entered the State Department in the Hoover Administration at the age of 25, had risen to the third top stratum of the Department. But now, he has decided to get out and get re-

Welfare Director
lauds Minors
For Summer Work

No job was too big for the sixteen
hundred Imperial county minors
who applied fer working permits for
the summer months and whose
work alleviated the shortage in the
valley, according to Mrs l.. v. Up
holt, supervisor of attendance and
child welfare for the county.
THE youngsters have been han
ding man-sized jobs" Mrs. Upholt
declares.
She says whether in agriculture,
business or odd jobs, the minors
always were willing and able to do
the work.
The records of jobs held by these
youths since school closed show the
following: Three hundred between
the ages of u and IA worked as
stock boys and girls in markets,
retail stores and ranches.
Six hundred between the ages of
IA and 16 have held situations in
retail stores as clerks, worked be-
hind the counters in eating places
and coda fountains. Many of the
boys in this age group worked on
hay balers and in other phases of
agriculture.
Seven hundred between l6 and
l8 years of age worked at the Ma
rine Air Base as laborers and also
handled many semi-skilled jobs
there.
Some other jobs held by boys in
this group include the driving of
caterpillars, handling bulk grain
hauling watermelonS and helping in
the harvest generally.
A few boys were given skilled jobs
such as mechanics in garages and
machine shops, and Mrs. Upholt
says employers are well pleased
with the efficient work which was
turned out by these youngsters.
Girls in the 1913 group were en-
plCyed as telephone operators, West
ern Union workers, usherets and
cashiers in the Imperial county
theaters.
Mrs. Upholt points out that all
minors are expf cted to return to
school next month.

You may or may not know that
a handful of water softener heaved
into your wash basin or bathtub
will make your skin cleaner and
your hair silkier because minerals
in water are thereby made more
receptive to soap.
But a trick which you are per-
hapS not up on, because it's little
known for this one you can
thank Alice Blue, whose job is
personal shopper for the Foster
Parents Plan for War Children
requires a lot of Walking-is to
make a paste of your water soft
ener Is to use it to rub off horny
skin on your SoleS before they
form callouSes.
For a water softener she uses
lavender meal, which is perfumed
and has granular texture. These
grains, Jumped in a paste, says
Alice, create friction when
rubbed on feet that acts like a
pumice; when used on elbows,
smooths out roughness.
