James Aswell ,
New York, June 19 —I’m having a
lot pf fun rounding up the ten most
exciting New York experiences in the
careers of celebrated folk.
Bight at the start of the series 1
tackled a man who, as one of the
great newspapermen o fhis time, has
seen a lot—and seen it sharply, color
fully. I mean Jack Lait, editor, star
reporter, novelist, playwright, column
ist —who tosses off halls a hundred
short stories, several novels, a play or
two, a dozen vaudeville sketches and
52 weekly and lively columns about
New York without denting his stride
and a responsible editor.
In the midst of such fabulous acti
vities he yet found time to set down
his choices for me. There is one mure
fact about Jack Lait I‘d like to record
simply as a Manhattan phenomenon:
through nearly a decade of contact
with that curiosly childish, back-bit
ing, jealous and critical world of news
paper columning, the theatre and
Broadway, I halve never met a man
who ha danything but an admiring
word for Jack Lait.
That, let me tell you, is something
in this town. But here’s Jack’s list:
“Dewey’s triumphal return from
Manila, which still stands unsurpass
ed for a New York demonstration.
“Evelyn Nesbit Thaw on the wit
ness stand, the most thrilling ep'sode
in the most dramatic murder trial of
all times.
“The Slocum disaster, the most pit
iful sight the eyes of man could be
hold.
“A New Year’s Eve at Texas Guin
an’s
“The Dempsey-Firpo fight, after
which my heart wasn’t normal for
weeks. »
“Getting the only Interview ever
gotten with Ruth Snyder, on Friday
the thirteenth, an hour after she had
been sentenced to the electric chair.
“Sitting In a room with Presidential
nominee A1 Smith, as he pleaded, beg
ged and stormed for hours on the long
distance to get a retired man named
Franklin Roosevelt to run for Gover
nor of New York.
“Watching Belasco stage his most
pretentious spectacle and most monu
mental flop, ‘Mima.’
Hiring a young man from an un
pronounceable town in Louisiana for
his first newspaper job in New York- -
He said his name was Aswell.”
You must excuse Jack’s final item.
He has a constitutional failing for gra
cious gesture.

■Mi WASHINGTON Cf WO R L [s*l
By CHARLES P. STEWART
Washington, June 18. —Strick Gilli
lan is the recognized funny man
among Washington s news chroniclers.
In recent .years he has gradated out
of the ranks of so-called correspond
ents into radio broadcasting, lecturing
and magazine stuff, but he still asso
ciates with his one-time fellow crafts
men.
The other day 1 caught Strick cow
ering in a corner of the National Press
club lounge, trying to hide from the
house committee member who snoops
and frowns on coat-sleeves. He was
in dishabille and a talkatibe mood;
two of the things he is oftenest in.
So, like a bolt from the blue, he cut
(loose, airing his busy mind as to “ex
pert” Washington enlighteners over
the and elsewise —
“When I hear these explainers-cf
everything blethering bia the mike, or
read their ponderous pronunciamentos
in the press—magazine or newspaper
—I feel a deep, poignant, all-but-un
bearable pain in certain essential por
tions .of my anatomy”.
♦ * *
“You think they over-estimate their
ability”?
“You state it mildly and like a gen
tleman. “elusions of grandeur’ is a
mild name for what ails ’em. There are
almost no Washington reporters.
They are sent here to report, and they
Stay to interpret. They become sooth
sayers, dream-clarifiers, unravelers of
mysteries. Sometimes they explain
something and forget to tell you what
it is they are explaining!”
“You feel strongly about this!”
“Habing a sense of humor, I do. The
possession* of a sense of humor is
glycerine in a fellow’s mental wind
shield, insuring clear vision. And the
man who best visualizes the unsolv
ability of a public problem sees most
accurately. I mean, if these boys un
derstood half the things they explain,
half as clearly as they claim to, they’d
be running the affairs of this world
and the solar system, including the
milky way and abutting property.
When some of their tree-full-of-owls
elucidations come out of the ether, I
wonder if the speaker himself has en
tirely come out of the ether after his
latest operation”.
By LESLIE EICHEL
New York, June ltf. —All the people
who fear “Brain Trusters” will have
an opportunity to ece whether their
fears are justified, beginning June 19.
That is when the President plans to
depart for six weeks—provided Con
gress has adjourned. He plans to re
main in the United States until June
26, when he will sail for Hawaii. The
chances are that Congress will ad
journ, for the President desires to
make his trip and the congressmen
desire to get home to seek re-election.
The spot that should be worried
isn’t. Wall Street looks ahead with
increasing confidence to the United
States and to 'business.
Its fears now are transferred to
overseas—to the collapse of Germany
economically (due to lack of trade)
and to ther ise of trade in Oriental
counfries.
Worries ober the safety of the Con
stitution have been left to people in
the far byways. 1
The worries, of course, were deftly
engendered by Wlall Street when it
believed its own interests would be
too drastically curbed by the Roose
velt administration. Wall Street met
the “crisis” in its usual manner —by
trying to discredit the administration
through endeavoring to prove it "dis
loyal” to the Constitution.
It is an old game that has worked
for generations in the past.

Dillinger
Somebody asked a German visiting
New York whether Germany would
have caught Dillinger.
The German smiled, and said: “He
never would have started”.
In Germany the police keep a rec
ord of everybody. Nobody may even
move into the next block, much less
into the next town, without police
sanction.
Germany, however, does worse than
catch the Dillingers—it deprives every
citizen of lierty of action. And the
police can put out of the way wholly
innocent persons.
The police identification system
likewise ruins many young lives. It
has been the rule in Germany for
years that every illegitimate child
must carry a card saying that he is
illegitimate. He is branded through
life.
Because of economic conditions, ap
proximately 25 per cent of the chil
dren born in Germany in recent years
have been illegitimate. There is an
effort now toward liberalization of
that dreadful law.
Explains Notice
Accompanying All
Os Cotton Checks
College Station, Raleigh, June 19—
Since a number of growers have been
confused by figures sen Athem in the
notice accompanying thfeir cotton
checks, Charles A. Sheffield, of State
College, has made the following ex
planation.
In the notice of acceptance, the fig
ures in column 11, designated as “farm
allotment,” do not refer to the num
ber of pounds the grower will be al
lowed to produce and sell this year
This figure is 40 per cent of the
average production during the base
period and is called the domestic al
lotment or the far mallotment. It is
on this amount that the government
has promised to give the growers a
parity payment of not less than one
cent a pound.
The figure was set at 40 per cent as
being the percentage of cotton the
j growers average selling in this coun
try in normal times. The other 60
per cent has been going into exports.
The notices of acceptance do not
show how many pounds the grower
will be allowed to produce this year
under.,hsi coritract, but he can easily
figure’ the number of pounds by mul
tiplying the numbter of acres he was
allowed to plant by the number of
pounds per acre his average yield was
during the base period.
This multiplication will give the
poundage he will be allowed to pro
duce under the contract. However, the
Bankhead act allotments may not coin
cide with the allotments under the re
duction contracts. Consequently, the
growers can use the contract produc
tion allotments only as a guide to es
timate how much their allotments will
be under the Bankhead act.
