Still a Great Need For Charity
Although the federal government has broken all pre
cedent in the extent of its campaign to relieve unemploy
ment, it is still true that private charity occupies the front
trenches in the war on hunger and privation.
This is made inescapably clear by the remarks of
President Roosevelt and Relief Director Harry Hopkins
at the recent relief conference at Washington.
No matter what the federal government may do, as
the president pointed out, in the end the whole thing
comes back to the responsibility of individual citizens and
organizations.
And as a supplement to this there is Director Hop
kins’ blunt assertion that “I don’t know a place in the
United States where relief is adequate.”
All of this, of course, simply means that Community
Chest campaigns this fall have got to be supported as
never before.
The federal government can help provide unemploy
ed people with shelter and with food. But that, after all,
is only part of the fight. You may keep a man from freez
ing to death or starving to death, but he can still be ever
lastingly miserable if the job doesn’t go any farther than
that.
His children have got to have normal educational
and recrecational facilities. The health of his entire fam
ily must not be allowed to suffer. The deadly empty hours
which come to a man who has no job have got to be fil
led advantageously or the man is very likely to go to
pieces.
These are fields which the federal government can
hardly touch. They are up to local agencies; and since
most city and country treasuries are pretty empty, the
burden has got to be carried very largely by private
charity.
And that, in turn, can be translated into very simple
words: we have got to dig down in our pockets again this
fall and winter, and we have got to dig down pretty
deeply.
It won’t be easy of course. None of us will enjoy it
much. But unless we do it in a most whole-hearted way the
depression will leave scars which will be a generation in
healing.
Safety for Savings
Members of the American Bankers’ Association seem
to be just about unanimous in their opposition to the fed
eral law guaranteeing bank deposits. Their convention
has demanded postponement of the operation of that law,
and a determined effort apparently will be made to get
Congress to reconsider.
The ordinary citizen probably does not have the tech
nical information to judge whether or not this law is
Workable; and it is hard for him, therefore, to form a
definite judgement as to the merits of this argument.
But he can very easily remember that thousands of
banks went blooey in the last few years, and that mil
lions upon millions of dollars, saved by people to whom
savings were extremely important, vanished into thin air.
If a federal guarantee of deposits won’t work, he wants
something just as good. He wants his savings to be safe,
and he isn’t likely to stop growling until that safety is
pretty definitely assured.

_Letter
BY JULIA BLANSHARD
NEW YORK.—These are gay days
down at 32 Mulberry Street, right
in the heart of the Ghetto. For
Papa Moneta, the genial host at
at the famous Italian restaurant
which bears his name, is celebrat
ing the day 30 years ago when he
arrived in America. He can’t re
member the exact date. But he
knows it was in September, so he
is celebrating all month.
Other famous eating places in
that vicinity have long since
moved uptown. But Moneta’s just
kept on making the same delect
able Scallopine, Zuppa de Pesce
Qv.lian Bouillabaise soup), Spa
ghetti Bolognese and other gour
met’s dishes. So the world has
continued beating a path to ills
door—even though you have to
take a taxi to find 32 Mulberry
Street, unless you were born on
the Bowery and know its tortuous,
dingy little streets.
* * *
Papa’s Proud Patrons
The other day John W. Davis,
who lunches at Moneta’s regularly,
was deep in conversation with ms
client, Isidore Kresel, the attorney
who won acclaim as Judge Sea
bury's associate in the investiga
tion of Magistrates Courts but who
now is being tried for his former
connection with the defunct United
States Bank....
George Jean Nathan and Henry
L. Mencken used to lunch togeth
er there daily, talking for hours.
Now that they are cherishing an
antagonism toward each .other,
each calls Papa Moneta before
coming, to make sure the other
isn’t there....
Mary Pickford says she never
knew New York .until she ate at
Moneta’s.During the Seabury
investigation, the committee re
served a long table there each
noon. Judge Seabury himseir came
regularly, until he got a black
hand letter threatening to blow
him up if he ever stepped into
Mulberry Street again. OlcJ Papa
Moneta offered to go to the court
house, meet Seabury and walk to
and from the restaurant with him.
But Seabury hasn’t been back.
—With a Medal, to Boot’
Madame Julienne, Paris boot
maker and designer, now visiting
in America, is the only woman in
the world who has been througn
the old-fashioned mill of serving
an apprenticeship to a bootmaker,
learning every single operation in
making a shoe. During the war,
she was working for her father at
Chateau Thierry. During the win
ter, supplies for the French army
were delayed and when they arrived
several of the officers did not get
badly needed shoes. So Madame
Julienne shod those who needed it.
Her most-prized possession is a
medal that the French government
gave her for this very act.
Maybe it is superstition or
maybe it is just a fear of germs.
But George Slocum, English
journalist who often visits New
York, never drinks without mak
ing sure that the glass is just
freshly wiped_John D. Rocke
feller, Jr., never dines in public
without wiping his silverware off
on his napkin before using it...
Gene Tunney has a naoit of
wiping out plates before putting
food on them_

A Blooming Good Saleslady
Over on Park Avenue, between
34th Street and Grand Central,
there is an old flower woman who
has a lot of imagination. She al
ways w<*ars the same worn black
woolen skirt, full and old-fashion
ed, the same old black laced shoes.
But each day she wears a shirt
waist to match the day’s flowers.
When offering zinnias, she wears
a brilliant orange waist; with gar
denias, she dons a white one; with
dahlias, a bright pink one. Her
customers have learned to look for
her and she invariably gets higher
prices than other “pavement flor
ists’’ in the vicinity.
Police beat firemen m tug-or
war at Cleveland's annual field day
meet, which is doubtless explained
by fact the police are more fam
iliar with the pull.
Just can’t wait to swat the first
pest this winter who buttons up
his overcoat .and murmurs “Is it
code enough for you?’’
Just when business appears to be
waking up, along comes this sleep
ing sickness.

NEW YORK.—There is a real
threat behind the government’s de
termination that the banks loosen
up on credit. The Roosevelt admin
istration holds currency inflation
over their heads.
More fundamental in the inflation
matter is the fact that the admin
istration believes farm prices are
lagging too much. It is the aim to
have farm prices in some manxier
reach the 1914 level. Just how much
that means may be guessed by
glancing at the figures.
Gross farm income for 1933 is es
timated at $6,300,000,000. In 1914 it
was $9,000,000,000. Last year it was
only $5,200,000,000.
• * •
BOOMERANG!
The government is having its own
troubles over NRA.
Contractors for new public build
ings have demanded more money for
additional wages and shorter hours.
The treasury department asked low
bidders on 22 buildings whether they
would proceed without additional
money. Only one has said that he
would.

CHECK ON TAMMANY
The largest U. S. district attorney
post remains unfilled by the Demo
crats. This district is the one that
inclu. :s New7 York City. It may not
be filled before the New York may
oralty election.
Although Pres. Roosevelt is main
taining a neutral attitude on the
election, the very fact that the post
remains in the hands of a republi
can, George Medalie, is dampening
Tammany’s enthusiasm. Medalie
would not have any embarrassment
if he would have to investigate al
leged election funds.
• • *
WILL MORGAN RETURN?
Will J. P. Morgan return to testify j
again before the U. S. senate sub
committee investigating private
banks and the stock market? Mor
gan is living at his British estate,
where he goes every summer. Well,
he does not have to come. A senate
subpoena cannot be served on him
abroad.
But the chances are that he will
come.
Ferdinand Pecora, chief counsel
for the committee, seems fairly cer
tain that he will testify again.

The sting of a bee has long at
tracted the attention of medical
investigators. The bee produces its
poison in two acid glands which
pour the poison into a sac for stor
age.
The mechanism by which the bee
stings is a harp, fine, horny needle
in which there are two barbs. When
the bee sets the needle with the
barbs into the skin it anchors itself,
and in its effort to get away it
presses on the poison sac. This pres
sure empties the poison into the
skin.
The majority of people when
stung by a bee respond with pain
immediately at the spot where
stung. This is followed by the ap
pearance of a small white spot sur
rounded by a red area. There is
swelling and, as the swelling sub
sides, some irritation of the skin.
Usually all signs of the sting dis
appear in 24 hours.
• • W
In about two per cent of cases,
persons stung respond with such
serious symptoms that even life it
self may be threatened. In fact,
there is a record of a patient who
died 10 minutes after being stung
by a bee.
People who are sensitive respond
to the sting with sudden swelling
and irritation. Then there is a fill
ing of the tissue with fluid and
sometimes the appearance of a larg
er blister. There may even be short
ness of breath with signs of shock
and collapse.
For years there has been a be
lief that the sting of the bee or its
poison is of value in the treatment
of rheumatism. This includes the
various inflammations of muscles
and points.
• * •
Dr. P. Thompson believes there is
something to this, and claims that
he himself was relieved by such a
method of treatment. He feels, how
ever, that the method is not to be
applied unless all other methods
have failed.
In the ordinary case of stinging
by a bee, it is merely necessary to
apply some soothing lotion to the
spot. In the very severe cases it
may be desirable to overcome the
shock by giving small doses of al
coholic liquors and by the use of
the preparations used also in asth
matic attacks, such as epinephrine, *
the extract of the suprarenal glands
or ephedrine.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
Cl 2APTER XXIX -
FTER 4hat first evening when
Miss MoElhinney joined Eve
and Dick on the porch she reap
peared ev sry time they sat out of
doors.
“My name is Dorothy,” she con
fided onei evening, “but I wish
you’d call lime Dottie.”
“Never!" Eve told herself sav
agely. “I suppose the next thing
she’ll war it to call my husband by
his given mame. I like her nerve!”
And, sure ^enough, before long Miss
McElhinn ay did assume that priv
ilege.
But Ev<j found Miss Leeds, who
shared thh third floor apartment
with Miss I McElhinney, most agree
able company. Miss Leeds seemed
to have [little time and devoted
most of Iher evenings to work she
had brought home from school or
else to sindy.
“She’s -exactly the sort of person
who she laid be Instructing chil
dren,” E we told Dick “She takes
herself a nd her work seriously but
at the s; ime time she has a sense
of humori I like her.”
For several years Dick had sub
scribed tci a magazine devoted to
pictures (and stories of foreign
lands. 'Gle offered to lend Miss
Leeds hip file of back copies and
she was -delighted.
“Aiwa; jrs the bitter with the
sweet, t'ne thorn with the rose!”
said Ev<» one night when she and
Dick h id folded their steamer
chairs and gone upstairs to their
rooms. •‘How happy we could be
at the ollice if it were not for Mona
Allen, . knd how happy our eve
nings at 1 home would be if it were
not for Dorothy McElhinney.”
She w tas to remember that little
speech a long, long time and to
look ba>ek on those evenings that
bad bee n comparatively free from
worry. Atlas Coupler, the stock
Eve ha il bought, was being dis
cussed i generally now by those in
terested in the market .and was
highly : recommended as an invest
ment.
“I’m 'ralkip-r on aii these days!”
said A slene. Eve feh similarly
elated. |
A ND then Atlas Coupler began to
^ recede. The first day’s slump
of two points did not disturb Ere.
Why, she thought. Pure Soap, Inc.,
had done that often in the short
time she had had her holding.
Even four days of decline did not
frighten her because she had enor
mous faith in the issue. Charles,
the office boy, had instructions
from Eve to wait at the corner
each day until the stock edition
newspapers made their appearance
and then to bring her a copy with
lout delay. Arlene, tense and ner
vous, could scarcely wait until
Eve handed the paper to her. Be
cause of Mona Allen, the two girls
had to assume a nonchalance they
by 3o means felt.
Now Atlas Coupler was down 13
points and Eve wondered what
would happen next Each time it
dropped Arlene figured her loss in
terms of what she would have pur
chased had she not invested her
money.
“There goes that Agnes hat I
craved!” she said first Then,
“There goes that new three-quarter
length lapin coat I counted on.”
Later, “My word. I’ve lost my trip
to Georgian Bay today.” And
finally, “Gracious, I’ve lost a year’s
supply of shoes! I’ll have to come
to the store dressed like a native
of Borneo.”
Eve was glad Arlene took her
losses so good-naturedly. She felt
responsible. Atlas Coupler would
surely recover within a few days,
she felt, and then her fears would
prove themselves groundless.
But Atlas Coupler did not recov
er. Eve was in conference with
Earle Barnes at 10 o’clock one
morning the following week. The
advertising manager’s telephone
rang and, with a frown of annoy
ance, he lifted the receiver and
clipped a brief “yes?”
“It’s for you," he said, handing
the instrument to Eve.
"Sloan and Sanford Company
speaking,” boomed a stern, mascu
line voice. “Atlas Coupler has
reached a new low and to all ap
pearances is going lower. We must
be in position to know that you
will cover your interest or we shall
be obliged to make other disposi
tion of the stock.”
• • •
T^VE’S face blanched to the lips.
Barnes must have heard, be
cause the voice over the wire car
ried so clearly.
' “Why—why!” she stammered.
“What do yon advise me to do?”
"It we oan rely on you to send
your check for $200 within the
next 24 hours we can keep you on
our books. Otherwise we will have
to sell your holdings, which will
mean a total loss to you.”
Eve thought rapidly. Barnes
must not get an inkling of this
situation.
“I’ll be in this norm to cover my
interest," she promised.
Barnes looked at her quizzically.
No doubt he was curious about
what had happened. Eve thought,
but so long as she did her work
satisfactorily she did not feel that
she owed him any information con
cerning her personal affairs.
Immediately she tried to concen
trate on Barnes' plan for a June
Vimpalgn featuring sports goods.
He was talking about improvising
a log cabin on the third floor and
having Mr a Penney paint the
scenery. “Heavens," thought Evet
“where will I get that 9200 dol
lars?"
When the conference was over
Eve departed, hoping she had
missed no details of Barnes' phua
He sounded the buzzer for Arl^cte
who passed Eve as she was leaving
the office. The two girls exchanged
stricken glances and Arlene raised
her eyes upward.
Eve hurried to her desk tele
phone and called Dick’s number.
“Dick." Eve begged, “can you
come down town and meet me at
the City Bank at noon? It’s very
important"
“I’ll be waiting for you In the
lobby," he answered briefly.
Arlene finally reappeared with
her notebook and pencil. “I’ll never
be able to read these hieroglyphics,"
she said as she sat down at her
typewriter to transcribe the notea
"Barnes is in a hurry for these let
ters and I’m as nervous as a cat!
I'll see you later."
Eve gathered up several sheets
of copy paper and a pencil and
then went to the sports goods de
partment to lay plans for the June
campaign. When she returned
Barnes was standing at Arlene’i
desk, taking up the letters as rap
idly as she transcribed them. Poor
Arlene! That act in itself wa*
enough to make a stenographer
nervous. It was Just 12 o’clock
Eve hurried out of the building to
keep her appointment with Dick
«he would have to wait until later
to talk to Arlene.
The front windows of Bixhris
store were decorated with artW
blossoms and there was a display
of house and garden frocks, porch
furniture and picnic equipment
But Eve felt none of the urge of
the spring time. She hurried
across the square, oblivious of all
passers-by. In another minute she
must face Dick and ask him to give
her 2200. Yet her plans were not
formulated and she scarcely knew
how to plunge into all the ©xpbina
tions that would be necessary.
She entered the revolving door
of the bank. And then she saw
him! Dick’s face lighted with a glad
smile but Eve’s froze in horror. It
was not because he was smoking
his old briar pipe in & nonchalant
manner. Here, in the midst of
hurrying, well-groomed men and
women, Dick had the temerity to
be wearing his old slouch hat, bag
gy trousen and blue flannel shirt.
And his coat had a streak of paint
on one sleeve. What was more, he
seemed entirely unconscious of his
shocking appearance and was com
ing toward her.
“Dick!” Eve reproached him. “1
didn’t dream you’d come down
in those old elothes!” A
"Well,” he said easily,
was concrete to pour today wv 1
didn’t wear my tuxedo to work
Any how I didn’t have time to go
home to change.”
