.Hadassab Head
Tells Of Rescue
OF JeWisb Youth
By Gretchen Smith

A stirring account of the re-
habilitation of Jewish refugee chill
dren in Palestine was presented by
Mrs. Moses P. Epstein, national
president of Hadassah, at the 26th
anniversary celebration of the
Washington chapter yesterday at
the Jewish Community Center.
Mrs. Epstein's address followed
brief but impressive memorial cere-
mony of the lighting Of three
candles by Mrs. Allan Fisher, daugh-
ter of the founder Of the Washing
ton chapter. Mrs. Fisher explained
that the candles represented first,
the hope of all members OF
Hadassah that Palestine become
legally the homeland Of the Jewish
people; secondly, memorial to the
10000 children sent from Europe to
Palestine under the Youth Aliyah
program established in 1888, and
third, flame to the memory
of Henrietta Szold," founder Of
Hadassah 80 years ago who died
early this month at the age of SO
years.
Mrs. Epstein, recalling how the
boycott of the Jewish minority in
Germany in 1888 finally ended in
a war that has swept the world.
declared that such "barbarism and
cruelty in any part of the globe
must eventually engulf the entire
world"
She told how the project to make
Palestine haven for the Jewish
people had proved the only saliva
ton for thousands of European Jews
but that had that project been
started earlier and been more firmly
established, a large part of Jewry
destroyed by Hitler would have been
saved
Citing cases of children eventu-
ally rescued from starvation and a
life of homeless wandering by the
Youth Aliyah program. Mrs. Epstein
told of one boy who had lived on
roots for two years when finally
taken to Palestine; of little boys
and girls who covertly hid the first
food served on their arrival because
they were afraid they would get no
more food: and of one boy who.
looking upon the graves of five
Jewish patriots. remarked that
fortunate was the Jew who had a
stone to mark his grave" The
speaker lauded the women of
Hadassah who in groups of 10 con-
tribute an annual sum Of $3.50, which
supports one refugee child in Pales-
tine for one year.
| Mrs. Tobias Naftalin, president Of
the Washington chapter, presided.

Youth Aliyah Committee, presented
a group of distinguished guests in

of the Polish Ambassador; Nine.

Pin-up girls photographs may
be dime dozen at any Army
post but your servicemen will pass
'em all up for one of his "best
girls back home"
Why not send your beau a real
Valentine this year-a picture of
yourself nestled in heart-shaped
lace which you can make out of
a paper dolly?
If you'ce hesitated about. being
photographed, analyze the reason.
Remember most minor facial de-
fects can be solved by the proper
use of makeup. A long nose,
freckles, short chin Or high fore
head shouldn't keep you from hav-
ing glamorous photograph of
yourself.
The first thing to do is to
cleanse your face and thoroughly
remove cream with a cleansing
tissue.
Apply a panchromatic makeup.
Though this comes in various
shades, if you select tan shade
several shades deeper than your
own skin it should do the trick.
Take the tiniest spect out of the
tube onto your finger. Dot your
forehead, cheeks, chin and nose
similar to the way you apply
your street makeup foundation
cream. Rub all over the face and
neck with the palm of the hand
In a quick sweeping motion.
There are only few exceptions
to this method of application. If
your nose is short, first run a
lighter shade of foundation cream
down the nose bridge and bring
under the tip. Or, if your chin is
too short or recedes, use lighter
shade of foundation on it. In other
words, tighten up any feature
that needs highignting. This light
foundation should be applied be-
fore the dark is smoothed in
around 1t and does not necessarily
have to be panchromatic make
up.
A dark foundation should be used
on any feature, such as a large
nose or high cheekbones, that
needs toning down.
Next is your eye makeup. You
should be equipped with two eye
brow pencils, one black and one
brown. Draw a fine line with vol1r
brown pencil on the upper eyelid
just underneath the lashes. Elk.
tend another small fine line about
a quarter of an inch out from the
corner of the eye.
Take both the brown and black
pencil and make up your eye,
brows by using each in light
feather strokes in the direction
the hairs grow. If your eyebrows
u are too short for your face, ex.
tend them very slightly, using

Social Security Seeks
More Adequate Benefit,

More adequate benefits for
workers now covered by the So
cial Security Act and insurance
protection for 20 million other
workers. who are excluded under
the present law, are among the
recommendations made by the So
cial Security Board in its Ninth
Annual Report to Congress, ac-
cording to N. A. Avera, manager
of the Wilmington Field Office.
Avera explained that workers
now covered by old-age and sur
vivors insurance are in the main
those who have jobs in business
and industry. Farm labor, domes-
tic service, Government service,
jobs in public schools, charity hos
pitfalls, public libraries and other
non-profit institutions are not COW
cred under the present law, Avera
added. He said that many of the
self-enployed who now are ex-
cluded, have expressed the desire
for coverage under the old-age and
survivors insurance system.
Since the start of the war, Avera
said, large numbers of farm work
ers have gone into war produc-
ton work. In some cases their en-
ployment in jobs that come under
the Social Security law is not long
enough nor the amount OF their
wages large enough. to merit in
surance benefits, the local man.
ager stated, although their wages
while engaged in covered employ
ment are subject to Social Securi-
ty taxes. The Social Security Board
is recommending that every work
er, regardless of his occupation,
be given the security provided by
the oldage and survivors insur-
snce system.
Methods of increasing the bene-
fits as recommended by the So
cial Security Board are, first, an
extension of coverage to all types
of employment SO that all wages
earned by worker in any type of
job may be counted in building up
his Social Security account, and
secondly, changing the basis on
which old-age and survivors insur-
ance benefits are calculated. A
third recommendation made by the
Social Security Board in its annual
report provides for disability in
surance. The Board also recon-
mended to Congress the improve
ment of the Unemployment Com
pensation and Public Assistance
programs, and the establishment
of a system of insurance to pre-
pay the cost Of medical care.
Avera said that action on the
Boards recommendation to pro-

Next apply ipstick, using a

Count Words
To Keep Your

A Delaware Judge claims there

If husbands and wives limited con-

looks as though the judge is speak
ing from "a mans point OF view
and strong, silent man at that.
For marriage would lose most
Of its appeal to women if they
had to stop talking to their mates
when they had used up a scant
100 words to get a husband in an
expansive enough mood to be told
in an off-hand manner, Il brought
a new fur coat today
Few men could limit themselves
to 100 words day at home, either.
How would they get by when they
came home after winning a golf
game, or after telling the boss off,
or stopping for a before-dinner
drink that heightened into three.
So cutting conversation down to
100 words a day each for husband
and wife is just one mans idea

QUALITY NOT QUANTITY
But something actually could be
done to keep the conversation in
a home from so often leading to
the divorce court. In the first year
of marriage a couple is sure to
make many conversational blund-
ers. But after that, they ought to
be able to keep their conversation
from getting them into trouble.

husband and wife should be able
to figure out which topics to label,
Never Discuss" which ones to la

ones to label. Choose Exactly

It's quality. not quantity of con-
zversation that matters. For with
just 100 words any husband or wife
