ROOSEVELT AGE LIMIT PROPOSAL BAS, CLUB TOLD Those Above 65, Below 18 Would Be Wards of U. S., Writer Says. President Roosevelt’s proposal to retire persons under 18 end 65 from lndustrv, mentioned in his speech last night, was criticised this afternoon by George Sokolsky, foreign correspondent and New York Herald-Tribune columnist, at the Rotary Club luncheon in the Claypool. “When President Roosevelt limits age of workers, those under 18 and over 65 will become wards of the government," he said. “What is the use for scientists to work to prolong man’s life when the government kills his usefulness at 65? When you prohibit boys under 18 from working you prevent him from learning a trade until he is 25. ‘Skilled Labor Is Problem’ “One of the problems of our country today is the lack of skilled labor. By the time a boy is allowed to work at 18, it will take him seven more years to learn his trade.’’ He pointed out that the Reconstruction Finance Corp. had named Frederick Delano, a cousin of the President and a man over 70, as the head of a Federal Reserve Bank. “Mr. Delano is an intelligent, useful man. Why not retire him?” Mr. Sokolsky asked. “Dr. Townsend is over 65 and now the politicians will probably work to steal his organization.” Speaks of War Threat Referring to the border clashes between Russian and Japanese troops, Mr. Sokolsky said that contrary to popular opinion Japan does not want to fight and in all probabilities there will be no war. He said that Soviet Russia is in reality a state capitalism form of government and declared that if unscrupulous leaders obtained control of the government the Soviet would become Fascist. “State capitalism is very near Fascism,’’ he said.

JENCKES FIGHTS COSMETICS TAX Calls Toilet Goods Essential to Modern Woman, Not Luxury. Time* Special NEW . YORK, April 14.—Toilet goods are csseneial to women today and should not be subjected to “luxury taxes,” Rep. Virginia E. Jenckes (D., Ind.) says in an interview in the current issue of Drug World. Mrs. Jenckes termed further taxation of toilet goods as “discriminatory taxation of American womanhood.” “Such cosmetics as face creams and powders, lipstick and rouge, dentifices, soaps, shampoos and hair preparations, have become as essential to housewives and working girls as hats, shoes and other articles ot wearing apparel,’ Mrs. ueuckes said. “iney should not be included under the heading of luxuries and subjected to exorbitant taxation. They are absolute necessities because our high standards of living make clean and well-groomed appearance imperative to women's self-preserva-tion in this highly competitive modern world.” Saturday and Sunday, April II4S $4.50 ST.
