THE POST-DEMOCRAT, FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 1938.
Statehouse News Bureau
An elaborate style show by L. S. Ayers & Co. of Indianapolis, featuring the latest fall and winter fashions, will feature entertainment for women at the Indiana Democratic Editorial Association meeting at French Lick on Friday and Saturday, August 26 and 27. Arranged by the women’s committee, of which Mrs. Frank Finney of Martinsville is chairman, the style show will be presented at a Garden party in the Japanese Garden on Saturday afternoon, August 27. Twenty professional models from Ayres and children of association members will take part. “jt is going to be a most delightful party, I am sure,” said Mrs. Finney. “The lovely Japanese Garden is going to make a perfect setting for the affair.”' She emphasized that the association was sponsoring the Garden party for all women. Ayres, one of Indianapolis’ largest department stores, will take tw© truckloads of the newest merchandise to French Lick. Mrs. Elizabeth Patrick, Ayres’ Fashion director, will be in charge. A feature will be a showing of school children’s costumes. A card party will be held on the Mebbanine floor of the hotel Friday afternoon, Aug. 26, for the pleasure of the women. Prizes valued at $25 will be given to winners. This party, too, is open to all women. On Friday night entertainment for men and women will be provided by the association. While details of this party are not being made public, Ray E. Smith, entertainment chairman, announced that the committee had been working since May and that it would feature “something direct from Hollywood.” He promised that the entertainment would be “entirely different” from anything ever held at such a meeting. The program will conclude with dancing in the hotel. The banquet Saturday night will climax the two-day meeting. Thousands of farmers throughout the state will applaud the appointment of Louis L. Needier as state purchasing agent, affective today. During his nine years (1926-1935) as secretary-treasurer of the Indiana Farm Bureau, Mr. Needier purchased the supplies for that organization. He has been associated with the Farm Bureau for 20 years, many of those years with Governor M. Clifford Townsend. In announcing the appointment. Governor Townsend said that Mr. Needier was “the most conservative and economical operator” in the history of the Farm Bureau. Up to the time of his appointment, Mr. Needier was tax and legislative director of the Farm Bureau and in that capacity analyzed all departments of state government in the interests of efficiency and econocy. "I realize that this is a big job with a big responsibility,” Mr. Needier said. “It will give me the opportunity to practice the economy in government -that I have been preaching for many years. “I am considering the advisability of establishing an advisory purchasing council, composed perhaps Of some of the state institution heads," Mr. Needier said. He pointed out that the purchasing agent buys all the supplies for state institutions and that he would wish to have the advice and counsel of the institution heads. '' As organization and membership director of the Farm Bureau for a time, Mr. Needier organized the Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Company, and the Farm Bureau Ljfe Insurance Company. Like Governor Townsend, Mr, Needier is a “dirt farmer” and owns and operates a farm in Grant county. “Everyone who knows Louis Needier realizes that he will be a real watch-dog of the public funds,” Governor Townsend said. From all indications, the building boom stimluated by government housing projects will be under way before winter. The state housing board anticipates a large federal grant for Lake county within a short time, in addition to other allocations already made in Indiana. The first low-cost housing project to get under way in Indiana will probably be at Vincennes. Don Stiver, state safety director, says that the state police, once weak in traffic and safety services, are now the best-trained in the nation in those fields. During the last year and few months, the state officers have been given specialized training in traffic and safety by nationally recognized experts, including famed Lieut. Franklin Kremi. When a state policeman arrives on the scene of an accident now, he not only gives first aid to the injured but he collects all the evidence including skid marks, photographs, etci ’ One of the busiest departments in state government these days is the state board of health. With federal funds now available, the board of health is preparing to expand its venereal disease control program. In addition, the bureau of industrial hygiene, created this year to control occupational diseases, is just starting out on its program. o WOMAN, 100, DOCS CHORES Bronson.

STATE DEPARTMENT OF (PUBLIC WELFARE
Indianapolis, Ind. Aug. 19—Immediate steps to Improve services and standards in the state’s mental hospitals have been announced by Thurman A. Gottschalk, state welfare administrator and supervisor of coordinated services fnr state institutions. Mr. Gottschalk whose program for $6,400,000 of state institutional building additions was passed by the legislature, is now moving to raise the standards of institutional services. “We feel that a great forward step has been taken by Indiana in resolving to relieve the overcrowded condition by adding new buildings to her mental hospitals”, Mr. Gottschalk said. “We know only too well that our state mental hospitals should be more adequately staffed for the patients they are required to handle. We need more physicians trained nurses and more attendants with particular capabilities for the work required of them. We also should have social service units with welfare workers to fol-low-up cases and pre-hospital clinics to work at prevention. But all of these call for increased legislative appropriations for the five separate mental hospitals and cannot be realized until action is taken on the next biennial state appropriations bill.” In the meantime, however, Mr. Gottschalk said several studies have been in progress: (1) by Dr. George C. Stevens, recently appointed psychiatrist in the State Welfare Department, in relation to the introduction of new treatments and nursing services; (2) by Miss Nelle Massey, state welfare nutritionist, in relation to the diet and' nutrition treatment of patients: (3) by the state budget committee in relation to wages, hours and conditions of employment for institutional employes. From the preliminary result of these studies, Mr. Gottschalk said, separate steps for immediate action have been indicated: 1. Employment on August 15 of a woman physician who has a combined experience as a psychiatrist, nurse and public hospital executive. 2. Beginning this month, a series of tests based on minimum standards for intelligence, personality and adaptability for attendants in all state mental hospitals. 3. Planning a follow-up series of in-service training courses for hospital staffs, to be conducted by the psychiatrists from the state welfare department in cooperation with superintendents of the several hospitals. 4. Development of a state mental hygiene program focused on higher standards of research, medical treatment, patient care, social services, out-patient clinics and a higher rate of patient admission and discharge. The additional state psychiatrist who will come on duty August 15, Mr. Gottschalk said, is Dr. Lillian Moulton from the Danvers State Hospital in Massachusetts. As a member of the Massachusetts state hospital’s medical staff, Dr. Moulton has been in charge of patient service for women and nurse training, having' also responsibilities with out-patient clinics. On taking up her duties in Indiana, Dr. Moulton will begin a round of meetings with hospital attendants as outlined by Dr. Stevens. At these classes, attendants will be given a group of tests and likewise instructions in modern care of psychiatric patients. Results of these tests will be reported to hospital superintendents, according to the program, and hereafter programs for general improvement of personnel will begin. While work is being carried on with the present hospital employes, Mr. Gottschalk said, other qualifying examinations will be developed and adopted for the hiring of -all new employes. Results of the work now beginning for improvement of personnel standards in the mental hospitals, Mr. Gottschalk said, will indicate the type of recommendations which will be made on wages and hours to the next legislature. At the prevailing pay of $30 a month, he said, it is difficult to find any persons to do the work expected of hospital attendants. —o— EXPERTS AGREE

Economists are specialists in business. They are presumed to know what increases and reduces business, what makes prosperity and depression and what will cure or injure our national problems. For once, these experts agree. They declare that this county is headed for a long period of prosperity. They agree that all the trends are upward and that there are no signs of trouble ahead. This is the view of those whose advice the wise men who make money on stock markets and on investments follow. Strange as it may seem, the views of these experts were broadcast by every conservative newspaper, all the organs of privilege. The rfeason, of course, is that these papers depend upon business for th^lr profits and advertising. For once, they were compelled, perhaps against their will, to give the people the message of hope. The causes outlined by these experts include increased confidence in the future, the reduction of goods for use, the necessity for more purchases. So when you grow pessimistic about the future, turn to these experts for hope. Often they disagree. They say prosperity is not just around the comer, but actually here. Of course, Republicans will tell you that it just happened, that Roosevelt and the New Deal I
had nothing to do with it, that it finally came in spite of him. But the people know that it followed almost to the day when the last Congress provided additional buying power. It is to see that this buying power is widely distributed that the New Deal must be kept in power to see that this is done. To grab more than their share of this new prosperity is the purpose of the privileged interests. That is why they are fighting so hard in 1938. They do not wish a friendly or favorable congress. —o SLUMS WILL BE CLEARED The $800,000,000 slum-clearance and low-rent rehousing program of the United States Housing Authority will provide nearly 700,000,000 “man hours” of labor in addition to constructing decent homes for approximately 160,000 low-income families, according to a report submitted to Nathan Straus, USHA Administrator, and made public
today.
A total of nearly $700,000,000 or more than three fourths of all the money to be invested in local lowrent housing projects, for which the USHA lends 90 per cent while the local community puts up the remaining 10 per cent of the development cost, will be spent on building materials, contractors’ fees and construction labor. Of this amount $250,000,000 will be consigned as wages to building trades workers and will provide approximately 270,000,000 “man hours” of direct labor on the
project sites.
For every 10 men who hammer nails and lay brick and install bathtubs, at least 15 additional men will be put to work in the mills that produce nails, the kilns where bricks are baked, and the factories where bathtubs are made. This “behind the scene” or indirect labor will approximate
430,000,000 “man hours.”
The total of 700,000,000 “man
hours” of labor, both direct and I at °P a chair with arme s P read out indirect, which the program thus} wing-like that this one is going to will provide is the equivalent of' stop the farmers in Iowa from
Cave Hermit Indifferent To It All; Doesn’t Even Know Who’s President
Philadelphia.—Frank Krowl ,41year*old “Hermit of Woodlane,” who lives sublimely alone in a tiny dugout along a railroad track, has never heard a radio or ridden in an
sanitary and decent quarters. HARLEM EAGLE BUSY WEAVING MAGIC CARPET

ly 1-& of their income for safe, automobile and does not know who
is President of the United States.
Maintaining a complete indiffer-
ence to everything that goes on in the world about him, Krowl, who served with the American army during the World War, sums up
his philosophy of life with:
“What does it matter?”
A tall man, with cold blue eyes beneath shaggy brows, Krowl’s rainment consists of a faded khaki shirt, corduroy trousers and a pair of rubber overshoes. For nearly 10 years he never has shaved or cut his hair. It hangs down to his waist in long, matted disarray. Krowl was born In Poland and came to America in 1913. After his army service in the war, he worked at odd jobs in Seattle, Wash., and then came to Philadelphia to begin
his life as a hermit.
“What difference where you live?” he said. “All land is the
same.”
He eats anything he can find, searching for food with a long stick which he pokes into rubbish cans and trash heaps. He has no money, for, as he says money means little to him. Krowl did not collect his soldier’s bonus because when he went to the place where the checks were being given out he found the office closed. He never went back. “J like it away from people,” he explains. “1 don’t need money. I’ve got everything I need.”
Paris, Aug. 16.—Howard Hughes’ found the world flight gave Col. Hubert Fauntleroy Julian an idea. The “Black Eagle of Harlem” Wants to do something big, too, lomething that will make the world more goggle-eyed than a Mississippi river catfish. Big head-
lines are his dream.
Julian is willing to let all who will listen in on his secret that his next flight—all of the way from New York to Karachi, India— is in the process of being planned mind you, not realized. And he dreams of a big splash on every front page in the country, something that will shove Joe Louis into second place as the hero of his
race.
It’s All Ssh-ssh
Like every good record-breaking flight this one is all ssh-ssh but the colonel demonstrated from
nearly 300,000 men working one year apiece in the construction of all the 160,000 low-rent dwellings to be built under the long-range The report, published under tne title “New Cities, New Citizens,” and illustrated with pictures of slum housing conditions and USHA low-rent housing projects, points out the following additional facts about the program of slum clearance: Approximately 100,000,000 persons, fcomprising 78 per cent of the total population of the country, live in States with legislation permitting them to receive the benefits of the $800,000,000 program of the USHA. The USHA has made commitments of 123 local housing author-, ities amounting to $506,871,000, the total being made up of loan contracts for $154,528,000 and of earmarkings of $352,343,000. A total of 68,000 persons, representing 19,000 families housed in substandard dwellings, are now living in 46 Federal Projects now under the jurisdiction of the USHA. Upon its fulfillment, the $800,000,000 loan authorization program of the USHA Will rehouse approximately 560,000 low-income persons, or approximately 160,000 familes, now living in slum areas. Discussing the past, present, and future of public housing, Nathan Straus, Administrator of the USHA, pointed to the close connection betwen the rehousing of slum dwellers and the national welfare. Mr. Straus added: “The very reason why housing is so important is because it is fundamental. The process of building and tenanting a housing project cuts across almost all the traditional activities of local government. Decisions made on one project affect the whole physical and economic future of the community, and have an influence far beyond the lives of the families rehoused. “By building now we can promote th£ national welfare. But we must ’ not forget we are building for a long future, and that the success of the long-term program will be determined in large measure by the success of the early projects. “Out of our short experience I would like to offer a few bits of advice. “First, be sure that your local authority has the informed and wholehearted co-operation of all departments of the city government and of all citizens’ organizations concerned, whether they represent labor or business, welfare workers, or potential tenants. A housing project cannot be built in secret. It is necessarily a very public enterprise requiring the participation and co-operation of the entire community. “Second, see that your housing authority is set up with adequate technical staff and space to do business, A million dollar housing project is a major enterprise, whether done privately or public-
ly-
“Third, collect all necessary and pertinent facts as to the housing needs of your community before you make, final decisions on such matters as slum clearance versus land sites, the group to be housed, and the type of project to be built. Public discussion on any of these points, even perhaps public argument, will probably be more of a help than a hindrance in the long run. “And finally, remember that the United States Housing Authority stands ready to encourage, advise, and assist in every way possible. Your interests are our interests. The Federal Government, the local governments, and the citizens of America are in partnership to make this country a better and happier place in which to live.” Today, in 37 cities in the United States, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, approximately 68,000 persons who formerly lived in dilapi-1 dated slums are now living in at-1

The dark daredevil who fell with a flop in the sea a few^ minutes after he was going OTYnake that momentous flight from New York to Ethiopia is not fooling this Ume. He didn’t cross the ocean for his 23rd time to make idle talk about himself.

GOVERNMENT TO AID IN COLLEGE EDUCATION Indianapolis, Aug. 19. Presidents of Indiana colleges today received application forms which may enable their school to participate in the National Youth Administration college-aid program during the coming school year, Robert R. Richey, state director, announced. This is the first step in the inauguration of the NYA college-aid program through which part-time jobs are provided needy students to enable them to remain in school. Each school head must prove that his school meets eligibility requirements, and furnish enrollment figures ou which quotas are to be based, before the amounts allotted each college are determined. Only non-profit making and taxexempt educational institutions are eligible for participation in the
and 24, must be chosen on the basis of need, ana must carry at least three-quarters of a normal course of study. The work they perform must be genuinely useful, but supplemental to the regular work of the college. NYA workers are not permitted to be assigned to regular classroom instruction, or any work which would result in the displacement of workers paid from other funds. Types of work on which they are to be employed include: clericaltyping, filing, and secretarial; construction of apparatus, models and equipment; departmental serviceclassroom assistance, bibliographies,, visual aids; library work; mimeographing and printing; ground and building maintenance; research, surveys and governmental studies; home economic-sewing nursery schools, lunch-room service; art, laboratory assistance, and recreation. Maximum hours of work for college students are eight per day and thirty per week, except during vacation periods during the academic year, when the weekly maximum is raised to forty. Last years there were 3,677 graduate boys, 1,094 undergraduate girls, while among the graduate students were 58 boys and 12 girls. Applications for such employment for the coming school year now are being accepted by colleges. o FARMERS NOT MISLED
The propaganda machine is working again. Republicans are appealing to the farmers, as they did two years ago, when they spread their poison against the New Deal that was finally declared unconstitutional. The farmers know now that this misinformation was spread by millionaires and big corporations that hoped to get rich from surpluses. This year they hope to garner votes in their false claim to be “friends of the
farmer.”
Take the word of Hassil E. Schenck, president of the Indiana Farm Bureau. He says that the farmers favor i^he Wallace Plan, not in its entirety or in its operation but in the principle of the “ever normal grainary.” Whatever opposition has been created has come from the operation, not
from the law itself.
All talk ofd regimentation and peasantry is bosh. It is not in tHe law. It does not exist. It does provide for a system of cooperation with farmers, fixed by farmers, and administered by farmers in
behalf of farmers.
All the talk of being paid for foods never produced, for the slaughter of little pigs, or hunger during times of plenty can be traced to the same source, to interests which wish to profit by the

the words of Mr. Schenck, “This is not a program of scarcity. The problem of poverty is one of distribution, not production. This is only a means of keeping away from surpluses. We had the largest surplus in history in 1932-1933, and more hunger and poorly-clad peopel than any other time in our history.” He speaks for 125,000 people who live and work upon
farms.
The farmer demands, and must have, a balanced income. That is the purpoe toward which the farm program is working. It is the goal toward which the administration is striving. It does not mean hunger for cities, btu sufficient money to buy the products of cities. It means the more abundatn life for all. When you find a “friend of the farmer” berating the New Deal, hunt for the motives behind him. Somewhere along the line you will find a Liberty Leaguer. • —o— — GRAPE BULGE HITS AFRICA
