Women Act to Abolish Insecurity Co-Directors of World Organization Propose Economic Change. B 1 EVELYN SEELEY Times Sprnal Writer VJCT YORK Dec. 3—Women were the economic planners ol yesterday. Their home was the economic unit, self-sufficient and selfsupporting, where they planned the food supply, spun the wool, piled the wood for winter, considered their need for adequate shelter, for years ahead. Today it fa different One woman’s household *:onomy is hooked up with the whole scheme of things And today you have not one woman planning the economy of her home out two women undertaking the economic planning of the world. Mary !•’. Fledderus of Holland, and Mary van Kleeck, New York, are old friends and associates in an idealism ‘hat has become a science. Miss Fieuderus is founder of the International Industrial Relations Institute. 1 >iis,s Van Kleeck is the associate director. Together they head the Regional Study Conference on Social Economic Planning, now going on at Russell Sage Foundation and one ol the most significant happenings anywhere. Their aim is "economic planning to end unemploymertt, establish security and raise standards of living," no less.

Common Sense Rules These two women, articulate in their speech and clear-cut in their thinking, haven't a sentimental word in their vocabularies. ’’All were attempting," said Miss van Kleeck, "is to link thinking to working, to get people to think together and plan together. "We want women to grow’ ‘economics-conscious.’ We want houseworkers—l don t like the term housewives, because they're more than that; they're household economists —to see their homes and families in relation to the whole social pattern." Miss van Kleeck and Miss Fledderus sat at a desk in Miss van Kleeck s office at the Russell Sage Foundation and talked of their mutual hopes for the world in scientific terms. Miss van Kleeck parts her hair demurely in middle, has ink cheeks and the soft, gracious manner of one in her own home. Miss Fledderus has a rakish bob, challenging eyes, wears tailored clothes and looks every inch the business woman. Both are as calm and good-natured as if they hadn’t the problems of the Id on their shoulders. From right and left and 4S e middle road they have gathered together economic experts, from Republicans to Communists, established to unemployed, professors to steel workers, in this attempt "to relate science to practice.” •‘Sharing’’ Is Doctrine "It is very simple.” said Miss van Kleeck. smiling. "There is no single place whore we know what we need, no single place where any one has the slightest idea how much production there should be to care for all the people. We must find such a meeting place.” "It is very simple." said Miss Fledderus. ’The world is so rich. It is not that in sharing we must all go down but that in sharing the standard of living may rise." They are not moved by the type of “economic planning" that the NR A attempts—"agreements to raise prices by keeping production down ’ What they want is "social economic planning—the integration of all industries so as to get the best possible use cut of them for all.” Miss Fledderus founded the institute in 1925 on the premise that the problems of industry and society have nothing to do with nations, but are everywhere fundamentally a human problem. They began to tackle special problems to build up the human side of industry. In 1928. at a conference in Cambridge, they came to the broad realization that •‘mass production is bound to lead to great insecurity.” Now that their prediction of 1928 has been fulfilled and the "great insecurity” is upon us. Miss Fledderus and Muss van Kleeck are pioneering a plan to prevent it happening again. MRS. EMHARDT TO RE CLUB HOSTESS Lincolnian Chapter. International Travel-Study Club.

Latest Stamp Catalog Shows Rise in Prices

BY MRS C. O. ROBINSON Tim** Hohbv Editor 'T'HE ninety-first edition of the standard Postage Stamp Catalog issued each year by the Scott Stamp and Coin Company of New Yr k was greeted oy collectors upo. its appearance this fall with particular interest because of the changed monetary values in the world Comparison of stamp prices even between those in the present edition and in that of last year is very enlightening but. as its number indicates, the catalog has been issued for so many years, that very old editions tell of extraordinary advance in postage stamp values. Since stamps have been issued but eighty-seven years the question arose as to why this edition was numbered ninety-one. To this. Prescott H. Thorp, managing editor of Scott’s Monthly Journal, replies: "We do not know why the present edition of the catalog is No. 91 but assume that in the early days of its publication it must have been gotten out two or three times a year, numbering it anew edition each time. One of the earliest editions we have in the library is No. 35: it is a little bit of a pamphlet. From then on we have them in sequence." At a recent meeting of the Indiana Stamp Club, Harry Coburn, veteran collector-dealer of this city exhibited a Scott's Catalog for 1895, which also was a very small book. It gave some very interesting examples of stamp values of forty years ago. Mr. Coburn said that the local stamp club at that time was called the Lincoln-Harrison Stamp Club and mot in the Arcade building. Three of the members were dealers, a Mr. Wallace, w’hose store was located in the old Sacks building: Mr. Pinkpank on Ala-bama-st.. south of Washington, and Fletcher Noe in the Cyclorama where the Traction Terminal now stands. At that time the fashion was to place the stamps in frames and hang them upon walls. Hugh Niven has the complete Columbian series preserved in this manner from his stamp collecting boyhood According to Mr. Coburn the 1869 issue was as popular then as the commemoratives are today. In some respects that series w ; as a commemorative issue although not so specified by the government. It is composed of eleven stamps with central designs of a commemorative nature. The 2-cent pictures a pony express rider, the 3-cent, the first locomotive, and so on through the set. a a a MR. COBURN said that in 1895|he could buy any of the higher values of this series for from 25 cents to 51.50 To buy the 90-cent value according to last year's catalogue two more ciphers should be added to that price, or. in other words, it would cost $l5O. This year it his advanced $25 more. This set had two famous errors. The central design of the 24-cent value was inverted on a few stamps. These are worth today $4250 each and the inverted flags

Contract Bridge

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY \V. E. MKENNEY Secretary American Bride? Teague WHICH is more important, the bidding or the play? This question has often been asked by contract fans. I think you can answer the question yourself if you stop to think that the bidding is simply the prophecy of the play that follows. You and your partner, by constructive bidding, attempt to estimate the number of tricks the combined hands will win. If you are a pqor prophet, you are not going to score the maximum number of points. I do. however, say this—that contract v tdge has improved card playing Natui y every bidder in contract is eagei o reach game and slam and some will stretch the bidding a little, expecting to get a good break or a favorable opening. Asa result, they have to be able to play the cards better. Following is an interesting hand that came up in a rubber game at the Cavendish Club in New York.

on some of the 30-cent stamps has risen in value to SSOOO. All the thrills of unexpected stamp finds are not reserved for the "dear dead days,” however, for on Nov. 15 last at a New York auction a single 1-cent stamp of the 1922 series brought $1975. The design is like the current green 1-cent stamp, but it is a rotary press printing and perforated eleven. It is considered the rarest twentieth century United States stamp and this is the first copy unused to appear on the market. It was discovered by chance when the owner offered his collection for sale to a New York firm. An error in the 2-cent value of the recent national park series of stamps also has created a valuable stamp. It was iouna perforated vertically and impeniorste horizontally, and, since a p&'r must be purchased to prove they are imperforate, this little number will cast its owner S2OO at the present market The Postoffice Department has announced that the first commemorative for the coming year has been promised to Connecticut in celebration of the tercenary of the state. Boy Scout issue in celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of that organization in America is expected to be the second 1935 commemorative. a a a THE stamp collecting world always is agog when Great Britain issues a new’ stamp because of all prominent issuing countries it is the most reserved. The designs on the new 1 and 1 1 2 penny values shown at the lower right in the picture above are in no way startling. They follow the perrect British tradition and use as the central figure the inevitable bust portrait of King George. Queen Victoria’s likeness appeared upon more stamps than that of any other one person, but her grandson gives promise of breaking her record. The twenty-fifth anniversary of King George’s succession to the throne will be celebrated next year on May 6 and British philatelists are urging a pictoral commemorative issue. This would be particularly fitting as the king is a stamp collector and stamps first were issued in Great Britain. According to Prescott H. Thorp's comprehensive treatise, ‘‘Commemorative Stamps of the World,” Great Britain has had but three commemorative issues—in 1887 for Queen Victoria’s diamond jubilee; in 1924 for the British Empire Exposition and in 1929 for the Postal Union Congress. Two values of the latter are shown at the low’er left above. On the first series a bust portrait of Victoria was used and on the other tw r o, bust portraits of King George. The monotony of the British design is plainly depicted by the stamps shown in the lower row*; the IV2 penny value of the new issue being exactly the same design as the issue it replaced. The coronation issue picturing Queen Mary and King George w r as issued in Newfoundland. Philatelists as well as the world at large are interested in the Saar situation because of the plebiscite next year. Propaganda stamps have been issued by Germany and the Saar has overprinted its current issue with the word “plebiscite.” The 50-cent value here shown pictures Tholey Ab*bey.

to ruff the first diamond and then lead a small club, setting right out to establish the clubs and hoping for a four-three break in that suit. The club is ruffed, then a heart is led and the jack finessed, which holds. Another small club is returned and ruffed with the nine of hearts. Declarers ten of hearts is won in dummy with the king and a small spade is returned and won in his hand with the ace. The ace of hearts is played. Now, of course, all declarer has to do is to go over to dummy with a spade, lead the ace of clubs, on which the king falls, and seven-odd is made, giving declarer his contract with one overtrick.

Sew Dances for the Holidays — So. 6 Much Practice Needed for Mastery of Carioca

”***!&* <;

Phebe Williams and Louis Arnold illustrate the forehead to forehead position that makes the dance so unusual. At left is a diagram of the steps.

The carioca sets completely away from the stereotyped dance pattern. So it takes lots of practice Arthur Murray. famous dance master, tells vou. in the concluding article of his series, just how to do this dance imported from the jungles of Brazil. BY ARTHUR MURRAY Written for NEA Service r T''HE carioca, an outgrowth of the Brazilian macheche, is the most amusing dance that we’ve had for many a season. Not since the Charleston swept the country have dancers been more enthusiastic about steps that are smart in the ballroom as well as for exhibitior p rposes. Remember that exhibition steps of any fantastic dance should not be done on a crowded dance floor. If you decide to learn the carioca, make up your mind to master first only the steps that are graceful and which take up little extra space. The same rules for sn art dancing apply again. A man should holds his arms fairly high and should hold his partner firmly, especially with the right hand. If he places his hand too lightly on her back, she will have no confidence in his leading, and will be apt to make an occasional mistake. Do not curl your arm around your partner’s. Fancy holds are out of date. ' n a a /"\NE of the most novel features of the carioca is the fore-head-to-forehead position. However. that is one phase that isn't recommended for a crowded floor. Another interesting note is the heel-to-toe movement, described in the diagram. Still another ; the dropping of the hands, as pointed out in the photograph. This diagram is particularly easy to follow. After the third step, while weight is on the left foot, rapidly strike the heel and then the toe on the floor. Beginning witli the right foot, repeat the entire movement. These movements must be performed with the partners’ foreheads touching —and, of course, must be i n’formed so smoothly that the heads always remain in contact; otherwise painful bumps are likely to ensue.
