filing the rough edges with an emery board,

clean soft knees by keeping them well
scrubbed and massaging them every day
with hand cream. And if your particular
knees need a depilatory, for heavens

Red Scores
Question on
Pusternuk

A press conference held to-
day by four visiting Russian
writer's started out on a cordial
note but quickly soured when
the name of Boris Pasternak
was brought up.
Stepan Schtpachev, chair
man of the Moscow Writers
Union, was asked how he felt
about the expulsion Of Paster-
max from the writer's union
after the Nobel Prize was given
for his novel. "Dr. zhivago."
"Artistically," Mr.. Schtpachev
said through an interpreter,
"this is a weak book. That is
not only my opinion, but the
opinion Of all who have read
the book.
1T is surprising why ques-
tions are asked about this book.
In our literature there are
many good books. Posing this
question is not an objective
approach. Such questions seem
to be biased"
He said that a friend of his
on visiting the United States
had also been asked about "Dr.
zhivago." This friend, Mr..
Schtpachev continued, asked
the reporter whether he had
read the book and was told that
he had not.
Then Mr.. Schtpachev asked
the reporter who had put the
question to him what he
thought Of the book. The re-
porter replied that he liked it
just as well as one he had read
by Leonid Leonov, another
Russian writer present at the
press conference.
Mr.. Leonov said there had
been resentment in Russia be-
cause Mr.. Pasternak sent his
book to a foreign publisher for
publication.
"Our state is a young coun-
try" Mr.. Leonov said, while
the United States has reached
the age of maturity and wis
dom. The complicated his
torical processes that resulted
in the United States have been
accomplished. We are still de-
veloping."
He added, according to the
interpreter, that I'VE are still

The program has three major
features:

2. The addition of a condi-

3. The adoption of more de-

2 Loan Bills
Approved by
State Group
BY a Star staf Writer

ANNAPOLIS. Feb. l8.-Bills
to increase interest rates on
personal loans and allow COM
panies to increase the size of
loans were approved by a
narrow margin by the House
Ways and Means Committee
today.
The 1914 vote in committee
indicates there will be a fight
when the bills come before the
General Assembly.
Involved are two bills. One
would raise the loan ceiling for
companies operating under the
industrial loan act" from
81 500 to S2,500. 1t also would
raise the interest rate on the
first Sl,500 from 6 to 8 per
cent a year.
The other bill would raise
the ceiling on loans by COM
panieS operating under the
small loan" laws from $500 to
$500. Interest rates would
remain at 3 per cent per month
for the first $500 and would
be 2 per cent on the next 5000
and l per cent on the remain
ing 5000.
Opposition to the bills was
led by Carlton R. Sickles,
Democrat of Prince Georges.
He said the committee had no
information which would in
dicate that the bills are neces-
Sary so far as the consumer is
concerned. He said the COM
mittee had only testimony
from companies favoring the
bills.
Another opponent, Charles
H. Smelser, Democrat of Fred
erick, said that under the bill
involving industrial loan firms
there would be an increase in
earnings for those firms up to
so per cent.
Delegate Margaret SchWein-
haut, Democrat of Montgomery,
said the disturbing" thing is
that borrowers seldom know
how much interest they actually
are paying.
Last year bills which would
have increased interest rates
and loan maximum were defeat
ed in committee in the General
Assembly. The ones proposed
this year carry a lower interest
rate than those proposed last
year.

A District school board mem
ber charged yesterday that
school officials are unjustly
cracking down on some mon
resident" students here by in
sisting they pay tuition for
their education.
Wesley S. Williams said the
officials are acting as though
the tougher nonresident tut
ton bill which passed the
House last week is already in
effect.
Under current law, young
sters are exempt from tuition if
they come to the city for care
and full support. rather than
an education. The House
passed bill-sponsored by Rep
resentative Broyhill, Repub-
lican of Virginia-would make
payments mandatory for any
student not living with par
ents or a legal guardian. The
Senate has taken no action
on the measure.
Supt. Carl F. Hansen &C
knowledged that the current
law is being administered more
stiffly than in the past.
The superintendent noted the
difficulty of determining the
true reason for a youngster
coming to live here with friends
or relatives.
Check on 1852
During the current academic
year, 1862 nonresident" stu
dents have been investigated by
school officials. Tuition had to
be paid for 145 of these, and
another 81 withdrew as a re-
suit of the check.
Mr.. Williams said several
cases had come to his attention
Iof tuition being improperly
charged under the current
legislation. A District Court
