- EVIL dances are as old as civil
ization. Every primitive tribe
~ stomps out its traditional YER
sion of the age-old struggle between
good and evil. BalletS by the dozen
have been written TO give Satan
chance TO pursue bevies of virtuouS
nymphS. But the ancient proposition
has been brought down to its Sim
pleSt-and most dramatic-termS by
a pretty blond dancer named Diane
Page.
Night after night, in New York's
Greenwich - Village, she entertainS
the customers by dancing with the
devil
This TerpSichorean divers ion,
which she figured out all by herself,
is a graceful struggle to music be-
tween herself and the Evil One. For
a dozen exciting minutes this modern
and sophisticated slant on the never
ending battle between virtue and sin
amuSes the onlookers.
Satan is as sly as he is handsome.
He tempts his pretty partner with
string of pearls and induces her TO
drink a potion which almost-but not
quite-puts the girl in his power.
She gets control of the tense situa-
ton just in time and emerges from
the ordeal with the devil behaving
like a perfect gentleman.
Some observers of this contest
seem downright disappointed that
Miss Page Is able to eXtricate herself
from the insidious clutches of a
youthful and dapper Satan, but most
of the spectators have the decency
10 register satisfaction at the dances
happy ending.
And although they are in on the
secret from the beginning, they seem
little surprised when the girl slips
the devil off her arm to reveal that
her partner is nothing more substan-
tial than an empty painted head and
cape. Her own right arm, encased

NAVY RELAXES RULES
TO SPEED MORE MEN
HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 @-
The Navy relaxed its rules today
with the intention of speeding up
return of men and women home
for Christmas.
Effective today, the Navy said,
men and women on duty within the
United States continental limits
who will become eligible for sepa-
ration on or before December 81
may be released Immediately.
The authority includes personnel
serving on ships now in United
States ports.
The only conditions imposed were
a provision that their services can
be spared and that their process
ing would not interfere with prompt
separation of personnel previously
eligible for release, particularly
personnel returning from overseas.
The step was taken, the Navy
said, in order to enable as MANY
naval personnel as possible to
spend Christmas at home with
their families.

HOOVER PREDICTS
HUGE CRIME WAVE
CONTINUED from Page One)

war for a general recession OF
moral fortitude' which he SAID
follows every great conflict. He
warned that to believe this coun-
try can escape the same problem
now is wishful thinking.
Hoover said juvenile crime mad
skyrocketed since 1899, the last
2eacetime year, and cited figures
showing that persons under Il
commit Is per cent of all murders,
SO per cent of the robberies and 81
per cent Of the burglaries. Thirty
per cent of all rapists are under
that age. and they make up "a per
cent of the thieves. 26 per cent Of
the arsonists and 81 per cent of all
car thieves.
Hoover said arrests of bobby-sox
girls under 10 have jumped 1913 per
cent since 1889 while arrests for
boys in the same age group in.
creased 48 per cent for homicide,
70 per cent for rape, u per cent
for assault. IS per cent for auto
thefts and 101 per cent for drunk
enness and drunken driving.
'Lawlessness has taken on such
proportions as to even startle the
imagination" he said. The crimes
reported by the press are not i'm
aginary, he said. 'but are real and
bloody. If anything, the press is
guilty of understatement rather
than overstatement."
Hoover said that many Of the
fugitives now being hunted by the
police had been set free by the
ELL advised clemency" OF state Of
ficials.
1.-THE inefficient and careless
manner in which convicted crini-
mails are guarded In our jails and
penal institutions is shocking and
in many cases represents criminal
malfeasance upon the part Of
those charged with the proper safe
keeping Of these enemies Of So
ciety," Hoover said.
Il hope as you do that the rack
eteers, the overlords, the despera-
does and the criminal scum who
characterized the roaring twenties
will not come back to the Ameri-
can scene. l fear. however, that
this is wishfuI thinking. Once they
get start and find they can sue
coed, we shall face a very serious|
problem.

meaning that a new contract or
some other agreement was neces-

Earlier, Secretary of Labor
Schwellenbach told a news con-
ference in Detroit that the govern
ment would not seize General Mo-
properties in move to end the
strike. He urged both sides to reach
settlement as early as possible.
In Washington, meanwhile, John
l.. Lewis criticized General Motors
corporation, leaders of the striking
JAW union and the government S
handling of the matter.
1.-THE world knows and Congress
ought to know it (the GIN strike)
would be settled in 10 days if the
government would give to General
Motors price for cars where they
can make and sell them for a
fair profit, the UMWA head told a
House labor committee.
"Taey (GM) are making more
money now not making cars than
if they were producing them full
blast because of the present tax
laws.
"And the poor, laundering lead
ers of the JAW picked this time
of all times to shut down General
Motors, when it could make more
money not operating than produc-
ing.
1.-THE dishonesty on one side by
the company is equal only to the
stupidity on the other side for that
labor organization"
In Washington, the White House
said President Truman would set
up fact-finding board very soon"
to consider, the General Motors
case, which has accounted for about
half the 100000 idle in labor dis
putes throughout the nation.
