COMPROMISE LOOMS
OVER JOBS BILL

WASHINGTON, Nov. L. G "A
compromise was brewing today
between President Humans re-
quest for continued federal control
over the U. S. Employment Serv'
ice and a house vote to turn il
back to the states.
The issue came up before a Sen
ate Appropriations subcommittee
whose chairman, Senator Nickel
lar (D.-Tenn.), told reporters
"The whole question is one o.
time"
President Truman wants the
government to keep the agency fol
a year. The house would give il
to the states in 80 days.
II doubt very much that the
service could be turned back in
30 days" Mcclellan said.
Mr.. Truman said in his Tues
day night address that millions OF
workers would want to look to "ef-
fcient and centralized employ
ment offices" for jobs during the
next year.
Before the war the services was
operated by the states with the aid

some day come to an end and a
great deal of unemployment will
exist in this country. Only in case

great new industry can such un-

Business as a whole should con-

there is bound to be a big re-shuf.
fling of jobs. This will apply to
both union and non-union wage

Next year this situation will en-

that inefficient workers will be let

SAGA OF 1000 FROGS
NEEDED TO COMPLETE
WORLD WAR HISTORY

MIAMI, Fla, Nov. 1-W.D-
The history of World War II
will not be complete until the
saga of 1000 frigid frogs is
recorded.
In 1941 England needed
frogs for hospital experiments
ton. America had the frogs.
But it was mid-winter and
frogs dislike extreme cold.
So each Of the 1000 frogs
was wrapped in a "snuggy-
type" blanket. 1t being war,
there were no xippers.
But heavy fogs in Newfound-
land held up the plane, accord
ing to Maj. r. M. Stewart
Richardson, head of the Raj
transport command here. Sew
enty-five per cent of the frogs
"croaked."
The remaining rs per cent
completed the journey. No one
remembers what happened to
the 1000 frog blankets.

of federal funds. When the erner.
gency came, President Roosevelt
brought it under federal control
because labor needs of war indus
tries necessitated large scale mi
grations of workers between the
states.
The house attached the provision
for quick return to the states te
bill Withdrawing $4,000, 900, 0oC
in war appropriations.
Senate leaders obviously hoped
to increase the 80 days, but there
were indications that any attempt
to run the period out to many
months would bump into sub.
stantial opposition.

Calvin my very best wishes and
tell them 1 will be glad to hear
from them whenever they may
have the opportunity to drop me
few lines about the places where
they are, and what they are doing.
Thank you Mrs. Harry Knox for
sending through the address of
your son, Pvt. Marvin H. Knox.
This address was published in our
issue of July 26th, 1945.
We would like you to feel that
this column is published exclusive
ly for Service folks, and that we
encourage them to write in so that
all their friends and relatives will
know how they are doing away
from home. You might pass this
word along to Marvin so that he
too can join up with many other
fellows who are now in the armed
forces of the United States. We
sort of believe that he would like
it after giving it try.
Now that Marvin is listed with
us, we would appreciate it if you
would notify Dribbles of any
further change of address that
may occur. In this way we will be
able to do our part by keeping
your sons name correctly listed.
When you write Marvin, please
give him my very best wishes for
a successful military career. Tell
him I do wish him the best of luck
while he is away.
And once again Dribbles wishes
to thank Miss Genve Orzolek for
having sent in further change of
address for her brother, Cpl. Frank
B. OrZolek.
Dribbles is very sorry to learn
that Frank is back in the hospital
at Santa Fe, New Mexico. Surely
it must be the same old trouble
with his knee. Frank has had a
mighty tough time of it since he
was injured quite some time ago.
One thing very sure, if wishing
that a fellow would get well, Frank
would have been in top shape
many weeks ago.
Wish you would tell Frank to let
us know how he is coming along.
We're very much interested to
know. Please tell him to write
and give us the low down.

MRS. GIchrist Keeps Active
In Clubs and Runs Home, Too

pus AS national travelling secre-
tary for Kappa Kappa Gamma she
has been associated with George
Washington University student ac-
tivities.
Her war interests have included
the chairmanship of defense in the
Goth Century Club, volunteer assist
ance with the Veterans Center at
1850 Pennsylvania avenue NV. un-
der Maj. Ennafs Waggaman, and
service for the Community Chest
and its War Fund. She has also
served as the League of Women Vot-
ers spokesman in behalf of the
affirmation of the Dunbarton Oaks
Charter.
Veterans Work Important.
She considers the work of the
Veterans Center particularly vital
just now, because of the referral
nature of the free service which is
given here for the men and women
of our armed forces and their fam
lilies. With the vast numbers fac
ing rehabilitation. the questions in
a single day run the gamut OF every
problem concerned with human re-
lationships and human needs" Mrs
Gilchrist emphasizes.
In prewar days, both DR.. and Mrs
Gilchrist were enthusiastic travel
ers, as she accompanied her hus-
band to such events as the Inter-
national Congress of Scientists in
Spain and various other European
scientific gatherings.
This husband-and-wife team
shared an interest in Braille tran
scription for the blind, too, and &C
lively co-operated-with the District
of Columbia aid for the blind. In
fact, they we're among the first OF
the District workers in this field
who transcribed books into Braille
in connection with the Eraille Book
Committee of the Library of Con.

Gilchrist has developed in handling
Evening star., 1945-09-02

Already Mrs. Gilchrist has been
president of four different groups
in this city, which show the diversity
of her interests. These are the Co.
lumbia Arts Society, the Womep's
Alumnae of Cornell University, Nor
tar Board Aalumnae Club, and the
Altrusa Club. She has also been
motivating factor in Kappa Kappa
Gamma Sorority ever since she was
instrumental in bringing this group
to the Washington college scene.
The latest civic chore she has
taken over is the presidency of the
Cleanliness Association of Wash
lngton, which was organized in
1899. It's function is to educate the
general public to help keep our city
as clean and tidy as possible.
zone of its objectives is to develop
a sense of responsibility toward this
end, and to arouse feeling of civic
pride in spic and span Nations
Capital on the part of our school
children" Mrs. Gilchrist says. "If
they can be induced to take a def
mite responsibility toward keeping
their Fairgrounds free of milk bot
ties, apple cores, lunch papers and
other debris, they will be likely to
have the same attitude toward our
city streets, parks and picnic
grounds. A clean city is likely to
be a healthy city, too."
Awards for Cleanliness.
In line with her work with the
Cleanliness Association, Mrs. Gill
christ is keenly interested in the
goth Century Clubs annual, COM
petitive clean city awards to the
city's refuse collectors. She has
served several times as a member
of the clubs Committee on Awards,
service which she considers a
privilege because of the great in
f1uence which she believes it's cash
prizes and certificates of merit ex-
ert in building up pride in work
well done among these useful and
necessary city helpers. This fall
she also is entering upon a term as
recording secretary of the 10th Gen.
tury Club.
Since her own student days at
Cornell University, Mrs. Gilchrist
has kept alive a keen interest in
college activities and was active in
bringing the Mortar Board Club and
Kappa Kappa Gamma Sorority to
George Washington University cam
