EUGENE BLACK SELECTED FOR ‘LIAISON’ POST Quits Federal Reserve Job to Interpret New Deal to Bankers. Bn L'mitnt Prim* WASHINGTON. Aug lfi.-A new drive to sell the Roosevelt program to its severest critics—the nation’s banker—was seen today in appointment of Eugene R.

He immediately was named to the newly created post by President Roosevelt. The shift brought reports of further liberalization of administration banking policy. Two more important financial posts may be vacated soon. Mr. Black will share his time between the liaison job and his position as governor of the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank which he left May 10. 1933. to assume temporarily the direction of the whole reserve system. As liaison man. Mr. Black will have the task of interpreting the New Deal to the bankers who have become Increasingly critical as the recovery program has developed. Governor Black's unofficial liaison position is hoped to bring in greater support of New Deal policies by the banks in view of his conservative bank training and his admiration for administration moves. His campaign will be one of persona! contact with bankers throughout the country in the hope they will expand loans and thus contribute to recovery.

INDIANA SCORED FOR LAX MARRIAGE LAW BY NOTED EDUCATOR

Laxity of Indiana marriage laws which make possible the union of unfit persons and the consequent begetting of incompetent children is criticised by Dr. Thurman B. Rice, assistant director of the Indiana division of public health, in an article in the division’s current monthly bulletin. “Any one can get married in Indiana providing he or she can find someone to share his or her fortune,” says Dr. Rice. “Morons, syphilitics, imbeciles, paupers, criminals and even those subject to insanity have no difficulty in procuring a license to marry. “What may be expected for the future if we permit the degenerate and worthless to marry and beget children, when, on the other hand more prudent and desirable citizens are limiting the production of children? “If it is true that the home is the most important of all institutions and the unit of all society, it is about time to give some thought to its keepers.”
