WASHINGTON, March 9. — We'll Sp the testimony of President William Green of the Amierican Federation of Labor; important, but dull, >

We'll ignore the 10-page statement of Edward A. O'Neal, head of the American Farm Bureau Federation, Especially will we side-sfep the speeches of the club ladies. What they all wanted—Green,

. O'Neal, and the ladies~~was con-

\ Houston of the OPA.

o ” . Tey USED so much.:time before the senate banking and currency committee that for a while it looked as though. Mrs. Paula Chapin of Bucks county, Pa. never would get her say. The senators finally did get around to her. And Mrs. Chapin sat down in the big leather chair. She was a slim, sunburned woman with a pretty face, a green suit (she made it herself) and a blue hat. She was a mother, she said, and a grandmother.

“Surely: you don't expect us to believe that,” said the gallant

Senator Charles W. Tobey.

o » o “HE WAS four months old last week,” Mrs, Chapin replied. She went. on to say that her husband was ill. But that she, her daughters, their children and two hired men worked -a 160-acre farm. She said they’ produced corn, wheat, oats, barley, black angus cattle, hogs, lambs, potatoes, butter, . eggs, fruit, vegetables and enough milk for nine youngsters. “You must have quite a herd of milch cows,” suggested Tobey, “I have two,” replied Mrs. Chapin,

she worked 16 hours a day— churning her butter at night, and

then worrying about the chickens.

“We have wonderful poultry in New Hampshire,” interrupted

Senator Tobey. “It is called Newg

Hampshire Reds.” . “a 8 8 MRS. CHAPIN said she had some New Hampshire Reds. She agreed they were fine. She went on to say that she'd heen selling her beef cattle to a local slaughterer for 17 cents a pound on the hoof and that he lost about $40 on every steer he bought. “Do you think he can lose money and stay in business?” inquired Senator Tobey, “That,” sald Mrs. Chapin, “Is

what he asked me to ask you."

o uo ” MRS. CHAPIN told some more about the operations of her farm, and how the OPA affected her. And as she finished, Senator Tobey said: “Madam, because of your per= spicacity and your handsome appearance, I can easily tell that you are a Republican.” “My husband is a Republican,” she said. “He comes from a lon line of Republicans.

" BY JOAN YOUNGER United Press Staff Correspondent - NEW YORK, March 9.—Thirty water color’ and pencil originals of the Urawings of Sir John Tenniel for “Alice in Wonderland” have gone on exhibition here for the. first time. They will be sold at auction Monday. The drawings, which have delighted children for 80 years, in=ciuded: * The whimsical picture of .the White Rabbit solemnly examining his watch. Of Alice herself, so big she will not fit in a room. : Of the Mad Hatter who insisted that his guests move one place to the right at the dinner table when they finished each course. ” n ” THEY WERE expected to bring more than $15,000 and will be offered as a collection, first, and then auctioned separately. Whichever sale brings the highest total price will determine their new owner, .The pictures were collected in a group. by the late Bronson Winthrop, - lawyer, He was 80 ardent a fan of “Alice in Wonderland that his niece, Mrs. Robert Fowler, said he learned the book from start to finish. 2 on 5 SINCE he collected the drawings for pleasure, however, he kept no record of his transaction. The family said they had no idea how much he paid for them or how he obtained them. He had no children, but recited his - favorite portions of “Alice” to his nieces- and nephews. He allowed them to look at, but not touch the pictures:

TENNIEL, himself, placed little value on the drawings, now a "classic .. accompaniment . to the best selling Lewis Carroll fantasy popular with both children. and adults. : Tenniel was better "known throughout his life for his more than 2000 cartoons for the Enge

lish humor magazine Punch. The - illustrations for “Alice” were first published in 1866 and so little is known of them that it
