WASHINGTON. D C. — Among
ether things, the treasury depart-
ment is fussing over what to «fe
m.ih one 10 karat'collar button and
three hairpins.
Items such as these are about
to crowd the mor.ey out of .the gov-
amment's huge vault in the treas-
ury building basement.
The stuff was. turned over to the
treasury as unclaimed by the state
department. For safe keeping
Most of it originally belonged to
Americans who were Living in for-
eign countries. When nobody
showed up to claim it. it was giv«*n , tt rnd Fourth SuikIsy evening
to the American diplomatic rep-
resentatives. They shipped ft to the
state department.
The treasury would like to do ,
something about it. but can't.
There is no law which would al- ■
low it to hold a pub he auction on
the huge stacks of German marks ;
from before World War I or Rus- j
sian rubles.
Secretary Helpless
I Secretary of the Treasury Shy-
| der is as helpless as the next one.
. For one tiung. he doesn't even
1 know-the combination to the safes.
W. R. Julian, the treasurer of the
United States, knows how the locks
work, but he's not talking.
Anyhow, to get back, to buttons
and hairpins:
In 1934 the state department sent '
a small boy over to the treasury
under heavy guard with a large
envelope, along with a little note
stating that the owner could not be
located.
The treasury people opened the
; folder and found -one pair of horn
! rimmed spectacles with gold
mountings in a black case; one cuff
, button; one collar button: one
woman’s handbag containing a
pair of manicure scissors, one gold
earring, a gold ring and a Cuban
coin worth about a nickel; a rusty
XL caliber revolver that wouldn’t
shoot and a cheap watch, junior
Sire, that wouldn’t run.
The three hairpins turned up in
another packet, which came from
f Yokohoma, Japan.

too little design in a room than too
much. Color may well be the ac-
cent instead of over-design. Red
and green are two cf the smartest
colors in 1919 decoration.
The green may be either a deep
magnolia tone or a bright Kelly.

VUE short good Bible word for be-
4 lag wrong with God is Sin. The
very first step toward being right
with God is to see yourself as you
arc.' lib cue ever went to a doctor
tin he at least suspected he eras
aide. No one ever went to school of
his awn accord who thought he
knew everything. And no one will
come to God who thinks he is as
good as ha needs to be. When life
goes hard with us. when everything
about our life seems twisted and
rotten, ere make all sortsof excuses
for ourselves, we lay the blame on
our parents or our friends of the
social and economic system in
which we live (doubtless all these
have a share in creating our troub-
les). but Vre hate to look at our-
selves in the mirror of truth.
