BEAUTY HINTS
By NINA TEMPLE
BEAUTY DEsTRoYERs

Women are generally unaware
that they are destroying their
beauty hour by hour during the
day. Such habits as frowning,
wrinkling the brows, twisting the
mouth, drawing the lips down,
squirting etc. engrave lines upon
the face that grow deeper and
deeper with each repetition.
When you become aware Of them
they are too deep to be eas'N
erased. It is far wiser to re-
frain from all facial contortions.
One appears a ther best with a
face free of disfiguring lines
that are used to aid expression.
Use words and stop twisting the
face and thereby destroying
your beauty.

RESOLVED that we call upon

all people. From that night the
foundation of American indie
pendence was laid", said John
Adams.
RESOLVED that we commend
the rising tide of inter-racial
good will and understanding,
and all efforts and legislation to
bring about Liberty, Equality
and Fraternity "among all races
here in America. We commend
the legislation that abolishes Sc

Segregation: It's Vicious
Purpose

Segregation is the special
American means of branding
colored Americans as the in
feriors Of interiors in public
status.
when the white South
found itself confronted with
the federal status Of equality
for colored people, the former
slaves-equality Of citizen
ship, of freedom, of franchise
rights, backed by the nation
al government - it selected
the denial of presence and Of
service in places opened for
public patronage as the one
great way to brand colored
people as having been a slave
race and make them forever
the scorn of civil society.
ut is a very effective meas
ure. Colored people are trail
tors to themselves to aid and
abet the idea by self-segrega-
ton"

Solons to Spend Winter On Pearl Harbor Probe
By FREDERICK c. OTHMAN

Washington, Dec. 1l-(UP)-Gen. George c. Marshall wears high-top shoes under his Army pants. His socks are white.
 He delivers his testimony at the Pearl Harbor inquiry into a table micropnone on top of fat, black book. The machinery is attached to the book with adhesive tape. This is efficiency. The General does not have to stoop to be heard. The book is entitled: "Relations between the United States and other powers, 1910 to 1923"
 I spent the day listening to the Senators question the General, but I'll be a Japanese admiral if know what they were talking about. So I will report on what do understand:
 Sixty-two documents, bound in what the fashion editors would call shocking pink, lemon yellow and tur- quoise blue with red tape trim mings) have been entered. into the record since the proceedings began the 18th of last month. Mostly these are thickish books of typed sheets, photostated documents, and charts of the Pacific ocean. They include papers which are restricted, secret and top secret. Some have squiggles, initialed FDR.
 Couldn't See Barkley
 Every committeeman and every reporter gets file of these exhibits and the piles look like barricades. For a while I couldn't even see Chairman Aloen w. Barkley behind his fort of stacked exhibits.
 The official reporters take down each word in shorthand. The tram script for the preceding days .ses- sion is on sale every morning at IS cents per page. As of now there are 334l pages of same, or $501 IS worth. The government pays for the Sena- tors transcripts.
 Lt Gen. Walter c. Short and Ad- miral Husband E. Kimmel, who were removed from command of Hawaii from sitting so long in the Senate's after Dec. ', 1941, are getting fidgety chairs. Whoever designed these knew nothing about human anatomy.
 The General is not chubby guy. He speaks only to his lawyer and then not much. The Admiral, how ever, is beginning to feel at home.
 Good Soup, Anyhow
 He stood in line behind me and some secretaries to get his lunch in the cafeteria, where four tables (al- ways vacanD are reserved for Sena- tors. The admiral had a 20-cent bowl of navy bean soup.
 It is a sight to see an Admiral carrying his own soup on a tray. But the soup is excellent nourishment. I had some, too.
 The inquisitors take two hours for lunch and usually chop the proceed ings off promptly at p. m., even if the witness is in the midst of Q sen- tence. He usually is. Such long sen- tences I never did hear; mostly they're enough to give grammarians the willieS.
 The hearings will run into next year. The government printing office Is rounding up extra help to print the record, while the cops who set up barricades to hold back the crowds are wondering whats the matter. The public so far has ig- nored the performance. The GODS are chewing their fingernails.

Town Clerk s Staff Adopts Bean System
 Unique Checkup
 Proposed for Extra
 Business

Possibility of free Boston-baked bean dinner being served With members of the Town Clerks office as hostesses, is foreseen as result of the suggestion that jar of beans be installed in the office as a means of determining how many transac- tions are being handled daily over and above the routine responsibili- ties of the staff.
 The work of the clerical help has almost doubled, it has been said by Town Clerk Mrs. Mary c. Kilmar- tin. This results from the numer- ous transactions handled for re- turning veterans such as the filing and making of photostatic copies of discharge papers, the issuance of free hunting and fishing licenses for the veterans and other similar duties About 4000 discharge papers have been filed to date, 1t was stated.
 The suggestion was made that the bean-filled jar be installed so that bean could be removed each time such a transaction was made, thus determining at the end of the day how many matters were han dled over and above the routine re- responsibilities such as filing and re- cording of deeds, certificates, etc.
 So should you walk into the Town Clerks office one of these days and

 Writes of Devastation

Right Rev. Msgr. Thomas New man, native of Waterbury, re- gently wrote to his home diocese Of Hartford experiences as Prefect Apostolic of Akyab in Burma. Dur ing the war he and other priests of the LaSalette order were Japanese prisoners, the report at one time that he and members of his group had died
 Msgr. Newmans family resided on Cole street, this city. He and other members of the family were pupils of St. Mary's parochial school
 MSgr. Newman's letter which came to The Catholic Transcript describes experiences in the Japanese intern ment camp. He was in the Mission headquarters at Akyab when war broke out, he writes, assisting nearly 50,000 evacueeS from all over Burma. In 1922 his Mission compound was hit by the beginning of the Japanese air raids. From then on was suc- cession of imprisonments and long trekS, imprisonmentS again, and years of suffering and starvation.
 He writes, "As for the state of the Mission we lost everything, and our buildings, churches, schools, etc., are in ruins. At the present moment Qetter written in October, we are glad to be alive and sure of food and clothing I am confident that somewhere, somehow, the necessary help will be found to rebuild our Mission
 Msgr Newman writes that his ad- dress after the middle of November will be Catholic Mission, Akyab, Burma.

Unpaid 1880
 Taxes Sought

Collections of personal property taxes for the year 1930 are being pressed by the tax collectors office, 1t was said today. The 1880 taxes, under the 15-year limitation statute of the state, will become outlawed as of April 30 1946.
 Thomas F. OBrien, associate of the tax office said today that per- sonal letters are being forwarded to thousands of delinquent tax payers of that year. The response is said to be good.
 Meanwhile back-tax collections are being pressed on all years taxes from 1880 to date. Assessments, such as auto taxes, are being followed up closely with few warrants being issued in cases where autoiSts have ignored warnings.
 AS reported here previously ap- proXimately S50,000 in backtaxes have been collected during the past year with but $10,OO0 in expenditures paid out as costs of collections
