urity Law ‘Robs Children,
Parley Is Told
Politics Prompted Fixing “Amount of Aid, Says Social Worker.
By Becience Bervice ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., May 29. =A charge that the Federal Social
Security Act has robbed children to buy votes is being investigated by
the child welfare section of the National Conference of Social Work, Miss Edith Abbott, dean of the graduate social service school of the University of Chicago and presi-dent-elect of the social work conference, made the charge before 500 members of the Child Welfare League of America. She called attention to the provision of the security act for a maximum of $18 a month to a mother and a dependent child, while “the old people with votes get $30 a month.” “The bill is not as liberal as it should be to children who are not voters,” she observed, “and especially to dependent children. who have no political influence.”
Amendment Is Urged
She urged the professional social workers to press an agitation for amendment of the bill- because of its tendency to fix the Federal maximum among the states. The Social Security Act offers $1 of Federal money to the states for each $2 they appropriate, up to stated maximums, for social work. The maximum for child care, Miss Abbott said, “is serious, because it tends to lower the standards of child care and mothers’ pensions throughout the states.” Its future effects in states such as Massachusetts, which now pays up to $52.89 a month to mothers with children, will more probably be for the worse than the Detter, she predicted.
Relief Change Criticised
Miss Abbott also criticised the complete diversion of Federal relief funds from direct relief to the WPA and PWA. Inability or unwillingness of many states to shoulder the burden returned to them has caused widespread suffering, she said. “I had a letter recently from a worker in Nebraska,” she reported, “who said she couldn’t stand the distress of families who had been without food for three days and where children, were too weak to go to school. “The trouble has been that the Federal Relief Administration was too quickly demobilized.”

While it is a pretty general rule that a contract of six no trump should not be attempted without a five-card suit in either of the two hands, today’s hand contains so many high card tricks, in the combined holdings of North and South, that it can be considered an exception to the rule.

Dear Jane Jordan—My husband is disagreeable at home, but at social gatherings he is the life of the When I suggest anything, like going to the movies, he objects, but when I'm tired and want to stay home, he wants to go. I can not understand what makes him that way. It has come to the place where I suggest the opposite of

A WIFE. Answer—I don’t know. His behavior suggests a domineering mother who interfered with his childish pleasures with countless prohibitions, Perhaps in his childish rebellion he formed a habit of saying “no” to life which he has carried over into his marriage relations. It looks as though he was unhappy at home when he was a little boy and that the only real’ joy and release he felt was when he was away from his mother frolicking with his playmates. If ‘this guess is correct it explains why he associates feelings of depression with his home environment, and feelings of pleasure with gatherings-outside the home circle. Question him unobtrusively about his childhood and see if you can ferret out what he objected to in
duct in yourself. Try not to do anything that would cause him to connect you with his home conditions in the past. If you succeed ‘ever so deftly in umearthing the half-for-gotten experiences of yesterday which still live beneath the surface to determine the reactions of today, you will have taken the first step in the solution of your problem.
” ” 2 Dear Jane Jordan—I am engaged to a young man who is exceptionally critical. He is very cynical and has a genius for picking out the weak spots in me and in others. Yet he is a brilliant and interesting person. I try to get him to look for good in people, but he calls me a sentimentalist. I am beginning to wonder if life with him will be so pleasant after all. What do you think? DOUBTER. Answer—]1 think it is fortunate that you wonder beforehand instead of afterward, for it is no fun to live with an overcritical person. By constantly pointing out. your. defciencies he hopes to divert your attention from his own. Whatever his brains, he is emotionally. a. child. Cynicism is a mask worn to hide one’s own insecurity, and not an indication of superiority.

what I would like to do because I}
EW YORK CITY, Thursday.—We arrived at Mrs, Morgenthau’s farm last night at 10:30 by our own watches, but it was 11:30 by daylight saving time. So when it was time to get up this morning I was just one hour short on sleep and it seemed the greatest luxury to turn over and go to sleep again, realizing there was nothing I had to do. A little mail awaited me, but very little has followed
me around on the trip, and so after half an hour of writing we were out looking at four of the most enchanting colts I have seen
in a long while. There is something appealing in all young animals, but a colt with its long legs and confiding ways is somehow particularly attractive. We went info a field to 100k at the 2-year-old horses and I saw a very large bull lying on the ground and inquired somewhat apprehene. sively if i¢ was well behaved. : “No, it is extremely vicious,” said Mrs. Morgenthau, “but it had a fight with another bull and one leg is so badly injured that it moves too slowly to be dangerous.” I must say, however, cautiously. Afterward we took a walk over the hills, through freshly plowed fields where raspberry and strawberry bushes were planted. We even drove to look at the cherry, peach and apple orchards. Looked at purely as a business, a farm is a fascinating occupation, because there ig so much variety that one need never be bored. On the way down in the train I read Dorothy Thompson's column; and was particularly struck by the last paragraph. She says: “Who is to blame? Zou and I are to blame.” And then lists the various things wy tolerate and know are untrue. I wish that her message could get across to thousands of eltizens, She is right—we are to blame for much of the bigotry, ignorance and vice in this country because 80 few of us think it necessary to do more ‘than keep quiet.

is always present.
‘The opening lead of the queen of hearts was won by North’s ace.
A small diamond was played to |
dummy’s king, West winning with the ace. A heart return forced out the declarer’s king of hearts. Four rounds of spades were taken and, on the fourth round, all discarded hearts. Declarer now tried the diamond suit, but the suit failed to break, East dis-
carding a club.
Now declarer realized that the:
squeeze had worked and that the club suit had to break, since East was marked with the jack of hearts and West with the ten of diamonds. There being only four cards left in each hand af this point, it was obvious that each defender held three clubs. Thus declarer. was able to cash 8 small club in dummy for his
twelfth trick. (Copyright.
