| Asks State to Mobilize Welfare Services In Emergency.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9 (U. P.. —Federal Security Administrator | Paul V. McNutt urges Governors of | the 48 states to complete mobiliza- | tion of state health and welfars| services “to meet the wartime] emergency.’ Mr. McNutt, who made the ap-| peal as director of defense health and welfare services, asked for immediate preparations to care for civilians whose safety “may be jeopardized by enemy action.” A function of the Government, he said, is the prevention and relief of suffering which grows out of wartime disaster. Asks Sabotage Guard

He asked all communities in the 48 states to provide whatever additional services may be needed in case of attack or sabotage, as well as the extension of present services. Wartime social services which now should be developed, Mr. MeNutt said, include: Those for the care of persons who may be rendered homeless or " needy through belligerent action.

It provides the manufacturer with labor trained in his own plant without cost to industry and it takes the WPA worker off the relief rolls. Plants where men are assigned for training must be approved hy WPA officials at Washington. Workers are then assigned to theése industries when the WPA is notified that (workers are needed.

SUT INDIANAPOLIS TIMES a Those Pots and Pans Given for Defense Are on Display in Museum of Modern Art

By JOSEPH L. MYLER United Press Staff Correspundent NEW YORK, Dec. 9.—The pots, pans and gadgets which are about to die salute you, Donald M. Nelson of SPAB. You and your Supply Priorities and Allocations Board may yet make them as extinct as the passenger pigeon, but you can never rob them of their final hour of glory. Enshrined today at the Museum of Modern Art, they are receiving the plaudits of the multitude, perhaps for the last time before priorities make them one with the dodo. Tastefully, even reverently, displayed in the same halls where the works of Picasso, Cezanne and Van Gogh once hung, all the entrancing items of the modern kitchen are shining bravely in the face of possible extingtion, key pieces in the museum's “exhibition of useful objects.” The exhibits, which also include gardening tools, ash trays and bits of unbreakable beetleware for general use, were selected by the museum according to the degree of

success with which their designers combined “respect for function, respect for material and respect for methods of production.” ” ” 2 ONE OF THE more satisfactory items, esthetically speaking, was a shiny pair of poultry shears, beautifully mounted against a white background. This piece attracted the attention of a large woman in sables who paused before it, “Fascinating, said. Perhaps the most colorful objet d'art, however, was a super juicer of red and white plastic. Made of material vital to defense, this device for depriving oranges of their liquid content was obviously making its last bid for fame. According to the museum, its maker had combined the elements of artistic design “with imagination and skill.” A triumph of graceful, if sim. ple, line was the butter curler, available for the nonce at most five-and-ten-cent stores. Genuinely moving was the vegetable peeler and bean slicer with

fascinating,” she

its swelling lines reminiscent of a Greek column. It might have stepped out of a painting by Giorgio De Chitico, ” ” ” SIMILAR in inspiration was the ham rack—two metal loops, one tilted, held in place by four vertical metal spikes of different lengths. Braque never did anything better. The most powerful piece in the exhibition was a spading fork of great severity of line and packed with connotations of fruitful toil. Esthetically less notable but equally interesting were the blow poke, which is a combination bellows and poker; a combination key ring and change holder, and a device which was at once a lead pencil and a night light. Of great beauty were a pair of sandwich tongs of wild cherry, displayed on a sheepskin, and a magnolia humidor, The piece de resistance of the exhibition, however, was a fourquart pitcher of stainless steel. It lacked just one thing to make it a perfect work of art—there was nothing in it.
