The late Will Hogg and I were prowling around the
lower East Side Ghetto one Sunday morning as a
prelude to a kosher breakfast in one of the Delancey
street delicatessens. He stopped to purchase a scoopful
of parboiled sunflower seeds a salted delicacy of the
section and spread them out on a table while wait-
ing our order. Among them was a folded peice of
paper which he started to toss away, then opened it
up. Printed across it was "Hello Will—How’s every-
thing in Houston?” That was his home city. It was
doubtless the leger-demain of some practical Joker
but I spent the rest of the day nursing a fully devel-
oped set of the ork-orks. He always thought it a

GERMANY'S PLIGHT
.Germany is getting, and is probably entitled to
much sympathy as a result of the deplorable condi-
tion the nation and its people are in, due largely to
the same economic conditions which are affecting
the rest of the world. In addition to the ordinary fi-
nancial troubles which are prevalent in all countries,
Germany has the added burden of large reparation
payments to European nations.
German government and financial leaders say the
end has been reached. No further privations can be
forced on their citizens in order to keep up the re-
parations payments as demanded under the Young
plan, and now .Germany is seeking to postpone some
of these payments to aid in alleviating the financial

Evidence that the government is making its em-

to keep the half-holiday from being an added ex-
pense. comes from many points. The Federation of
Federal Employes is insisting that the workers must
receive their legal half-holidays or compensory time.
It attributes failures to enforce the law in the field
to a Budget Bureau order, made on instructions from
President Hoover, who said that he intended to en-
tertain no supplemental or deficiency estimates of
appropriations for carrying out the general half-holi-
day act.

WASHINGTON, June 11—Little sentiment has de-

of a five-day week in the federal service, but after
July nearly all government employee wil be entitled
to a Saturday halt-holiday the year around.
Most of them have been working only four hours
on Saturday since early March, but there remain the
postal employes whose 44-hour week as voted by
Congress goes into effect after this month and an
■ ndetermined number of government worker, over
the country who complain that they are not being
granted their half-holidays because of the economy

Hi/ new laws provide a longer and more enjoy-

lieve much unemployment. The 44-hour week for pos-
td empoyes was provided in a law which authorizes
tne extra expense incurred through the fact that the
system operates 24 hours a day, but President Hoover
and Director of the Budget Roop have decided that
the half-holiday for other employes mhust be arranged
without incurring any expenses chargeable to de-
ficiencies. In both cases} however, where employes
are required by public interest as interpreted by their
superiors to work on Saturday afternoons they are
entitled to compensatory time off on other days of
the week.

This country is vitally interested-indirectly—in the
payment of Germany reparations, for although Ger-
many pays this country only a negligible amount,
compared to the payments to France and England,
these nations use German reparation money to pay
their debts to the United States. Consequently, if
Germany to allowed to postpone payments, it is like-
ly that European nations will attempt to pass the
buck back to this country in the form of delayed pay-
ments on war loans. At least, that is the tone of some
of the diplomatic conversation that has surrounded
the conferences over Germany's troubles.
Although Washington would lite to see Germany
released slightly from the heavy reparations pay-
mania, our government isn't desirous of helping Ger-
many at the expense of this country. There is quite a
dit of difference between war loans made in money
and materials, and reparation payments based on
actual or fancied damage by invading troops during
the war. ' ‘ i"

A LESSON LEARNED
When the state recently opened bids for the 1932
automobile license plates, It found a bid from the
Indiana state prison among them. There would have
been objections, of course, to using convict-made
plates on Texas automobiles. State officials and the
public alike would look asknnce at such a proce-
dure, even if the plates could be very cheaply ob-
tained. • >
They were not called uvon to decide tne matter. It
turned out that the prison-made plates, instead of
being very cheap, as one would expect, were offered at
a price about twice as high as that of the lowest bid-
der The duccesaful bidder will furnish the plates nt
about six cents each; the Indiana prison’s bid whas
more than 13 cents. .
In theory, one can manufactte goods much more
cheaply when the labor, being forced, costs nothing.
In practice, that doesh‛ seem to be true. The Indiana
prison, with no payrolls to meet, can't make the
license plates nearly ao cheaply as private coh-
cerns that presumably pay fair wages There ere
people as a whole into a jam. Not mi"
much prosperity can be looted Tor warm, but we do not sleep thru
until the adjustment processIS he winter, as many animals do.
ors to London have lingered haltingly at the appetiz-
ing windows of Fort num and Mason at Picadilly and
Duke street. Their quaint advertisements dating back
from 1710 are eagerly sought by collectors.
The Madison avenue branch shop, not as rich and
varied as the original, is, however, suffocatingly Bri-
tish And so as in London it whets the palates of gour-
mets. Pepys, Pitt, Thackeray, Thomas Burke and
Carlyle penned pithy panegyrics to Fortnum and
Mason.
Gladstone and Disraeli shopped there and the
present royal family are occasional patrons. From
the establishment Queen Victoria ordered 250 pounds
of beef tea sent to Florence Nightingale on the
Crimcan front. Fat back in the mildewed years Ma-
son was a kitchen maid and Fortnum a Queen Anne
servant.
In the London shop one finds such British edibles
as marmalades, chutney, puddings, grouse, kippers
and smoked salmon. Along with such surprises as
kangaroo tail soup, cox-combs in jelly, shark fin soup,
grouse pie, bright cheese known as Wensleydale and
a penumbra of darkly smoked meats.
.. Sentimentalists will wish the American version a
cheerio. Its heavy and fruity fare offers a spice to an
age of light vegetarianism. Still names and institu-
tions hallowed by the red rust of time have little
appeal for hurrying New Yorkers. They live in the
eternal now.
Restaurants have tong since found that to advertise
a place as where General Grant or even the later O.
Henry dined has nd drawing power. But show that
Lindbergh, Helen Morgan or Mayor Walter are pa-
trons and the tables may fill in Jig time.
