 It was that night however, they really put on the dog Governor Rex Tugwell threw party at La For taeza the Puerto Rican governors mansion. It's a tremendous three-story and penthouse castle built around courtyard on the water front There was buffet supper at seven for a select few. The menu about the same as at noon, only a little fanc1er and without the champagne.
 At nine came a reception for about 800. Not many of the legislators showed up here. This the tive arm of the government doing its stuff. U s. the Army and Navy brass and gold. The ladies in formals and the gents in whites and uniforms It quite the tony side except for the bureaucrats from Washington, who hadn't come prepared for any, thing like this and wore business blues and grays and browns and felt uncomfortable.

SCHWAB'S DRUGSTORE,

 HOLLYWOOD
 One of the famous hangoMtS for the Hollywood stars l Schwaib's drugstore on the Sum set Strip. Nobody knows why they hang out there, but I hear there's no charge for thrImbing through the movie magazines.
 You know how most drugStoreS have. a rack outside for people to park their bikes? .. Well, Schwab's has a rack on the in- side for 'em to park their OscanS. And they never have to dust out the chcandelierS Johnny Weismuller comes in every af- ternoon and practices his TarZan act.
 All prescriptions are filled per- sonally by Dr. Kildare. It's the only drugstore in the world that has sure cure for 1aiccups |. People drop in, sit at the counter, and wait for Boris Karloff to show up.
 Everything in the store has the Hollywood touch. You put penny in the machine for a one -cent stamp and it comes out auto- graphed by George Washington. And it's very informal :. The stars wait on themselves and if a customer comes in, they wait on him, too.
 Last week Frank Sinatra was behind the counter and some guy came in and wanted something for hangover. Frank picked up a bottle aid said, Try this. I use it all the tirne!" The gugy took one look at him and has been on the wagon ever since.

Spread of Disease Via Eating Utensils Slight
By WILLIAM BRADY, MD.

Dy w IAAAkAlW O1tfAO 1S1s Ds
 Bacterial counts from plates, spoons, forks, glasses made by Unit ed States Public Health Service hactehiologists from these utensils as they were ready to serve GUS toners revealed that restaurant glasses had an average of 45,000 basterioligists from these utensils average of 72,O00 bacteria; cafe bar and bar room glasses from 2l1,000 to 13,0O0,000 bacteria.
 It old you , .. well, draw your own conclusion as to the safest place to eat or drink away from home.
 Sos far as spread of disease via eating and drinking utensils is con- cerned, the actual risk is by no means as serious as these figures might suggest.
 Indeed, with little more care in such eating and drinking places, in respect to the reasonable sani- tary regulations, the danger might easily be removed. Where these public eating and drinking estab- lishments offend most frequently and fagrantly is in the facilities they have and the technique they use for washing glasses, knifes, forks, spoons and dishes.
 Plain and fancy bars and cock tail rooms particularly get away with murder in the dimmed light ing and by reason of the dulled per- ception of customers. Soda foun- tains in the rush hours comply with the sanitary regulations if not with the requirements of decency by swishing the dirty glass through concealed tub or receptacle Of dirtier water and setting it up as ready for the next victim.
 The indispensable minimum equip ment for sanitary service in any any eating or drinking establish ment, as the health authorities ev- erywhere well know, is double sink or two sinks, one for washing utensils, the other for rinsing. It is only by malfeasance, dereliction of duty, incompetence or gross dis regard of public safety that the health officer, inspector, health board or health department per- mits any such establishment to do business without this minimum equipment.
 For washing eating or drinking utensils soap, any soap, whichever kind is cheapest and most satisfac- tory, and hot water is necessary For rinsing a weak chlorine solu- tion has proved most efflcient-it disinfects.
 Chlorine, you know, is the disin- fectant universally employed to keep public drinking water supplies safe most municipal water supplies are constantly chlorinated and oc- casionally one can taste the chl- brine, but even so, give me the nun icipal water.

ON CHAOS

ON CHAOS Since time began and chaos was, With universes burning, We've worried constantly because We've feared it was returning. No single war, no human strife But leads to patriotic

 Too earnest to be kidding. I think that chaos canne-and

CLOSELY GEARED
These two incidents show what
kind OF a civilization we live In.
This is world of delicate ma
chimes so connected together that
TO stop me. all of them are stop
ped like the works in a highly
developed watch.
We know that 1t takes less than
a general strike 10 tie up cities
like Paris and Buffalo, any crank
! with a wrench or crowbar could
do the thing in 30 minutes. A
radio operator can fall asleep
and cause those on a distressed
vessel at sea TO be lost for lack OF
the IS. o s." A telephone oper-
ator can powder her nose long
enough TO permit burglars 10 loot
a town; fire to destroy village;
murderer or rapist to escape ar
rest, or her quick Wit can cave a
city from flood or another disas-
ter. A half-dozen "sit-down
strikers can throw 100000 people
out Of work.
We all know that one man with
a gun in his hand caused the
World War in which hundreds Of
| thousands lost their lives, with
loss to property in the millions
and the wounding OF millions Of
souls who had nothing to do with
the original assassination.
To keep this country going. and
our civilization moving is not the
sole Job OF the President and our
legal and other governmental ma
chinery. 1t is the task OF each
individual to do his part, all pulling
in the same direction. We should
do nothing which pulls another
back
RIGHTS BEGIN
1t is only when an individual or
group OF people feel they have
separate destinies and separate
rights, that the destinies and rights
OF all are threatened. One man
has no right his fellow has not Be-
fore we strike and put others out
OF work, we should know. that the
other fellow has as much right to
work as we have 10 strike. We
all have a right to strike but that
ends where the other mans right
TO work begins.
