on Water Skis
DOVER. Aug. 27. (AP) Karl
Naumestnlk. an Austrian, walked
across the Englti.l channel from
Cop Oris Nez, Prance today on a
pair of water skila.
Convoyed by a fishing boat, he
scudded across one of the nastiest
bits of water In the world, coming
ashore at Shakespeare Beach here
at 4:30 p. m.
He had a bad time of It all the
way across the rough channel and
partook of no food on the way be
cause ho was afraid of sea sick-
By Bess Furman.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 87. (AP)
September's school bell will ring out
the old, ring In the new, in sending
children to school If the children's
bureau has Its way.
? Gone- will be the patient mother
. who washes little faces, combs a half
dozen heads of hair,' buttons clothes
and. laces shoes.
All these things, . bureau experts
claim' even a four-year-old can do
for himself, given a convenient hair
cut, buttbns In front, and big enougft
button-holes. ,
Instead of doing things for the
child that he could learn to do for
himself, the proper parent will de
vote home attention to how junior
will psychologically fit Into' the
school regime, the bureau sets forth.
Analysis Needed
Mother Is admonished to stop and
Vilnk what kind of mind her child
has, using these questions: Is he
very bright? Is he quick but care
less. Is he slow but careful? Is he
quick with his head but slow with
his hands? Is he slow with his head
but quick wilft his hands? Is he
slow In every way?
'You must know these things I"
the bureau emphasizes. "If he Is
not so bright as Johnny, remember
that is not his fault. Do not say,
'Why can't you be like Johnny?' He
will get discouraged and stop trying.
"Or you may be afraid your child
will think he Is smart and want to
'show off because he Is bright, So
you tell Mm lie Is stupid. That Is
bad too. He will believe you, and
stop trying to learn." ;
Muggestlons Olven
Many suggestions Were given by
the bureau for teaching children how
to be Independent enough to get
themselves off for school In the mor
ning; and, to maintain self-respect
while there:
"Olve him a box to stand on In
front of the wash basin so he ean
wash hit faco and hands, Mark wlti
colored atitohtng the front outside of
his underwear so he won't put It on
backslde-to and- wrong'slde-out, Olve
him clothes that are easy to put on.
Let him use tools. Try to make him
think for himself.
"When he finds something Is .hard
to do, do not say before him, 'he
takes after me, I never oould learn to
Jump' or 'he takes after his father.
He breaks everything he tries to fix.'
When you say this, you are teaching
him that It Is of no use to try. Prob
ably he could do it very well after a
llttlo. while If you let Aim try."

Radio Commission to Con

Stations Newspapers
Watching Developments
WASHINGTON (AP)-fho blKsest
application for broadcasting facili
ties over made by a single organiza
tion Is scheduled for consideration
. by the federal radio commlsslonaftcr
Its summer reoess.
The request of O. R. Cummins,
trustee for Community Radio, a pro
jected corporation at Wtillannport.
Pa., that 3S channels be made avail
able for use by stations to be estab
lished by the corporation In 807 oltles,
is set for hearing October 18.
: Newr-paners Watching
The project has crested much In
terest, commission officials say. It
has attracted the attention particu
larly of newspaper publishers who
oppose the encroachment of radio
stations in the news and advertising
fields.
Closely watching the Cummins
ease Is. the Amsrlcsn Newspaper Pub
lishers' association which Is prepar
ing to fight in congress and else
where the alleged unfair competetlon
of stations that with the aid of a
government franchise engage In
broadcasting news and dlroct adver
tising. .
Cummins, In his application, re
quests that the commission make a
reallocation In the broadcast band
"in order that 89 of the present 99
ohannels may be set aside for the
exclusive use of community radio
stations."
These channels would be allotted
to community stations In cities hav
ing a population between 10,000 and
100.000.
lliinrfred Watts Proposal Uml
No station would be granted more
than 100 watu power and no station
given greater than one watt for each
1,000 Inhabitants within the limits
of Its city. Cummins proposes that
38 adjacent channels of 10 kilocy
cles width be subdivided to provide
189 adjacent channels, each hevlng
a two kilocyole separation.
Community Radio proposes to op
erate stations, ha says. In 807 cities
In Maine. New Hampshire, Mnssa
chusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island,
New York, Pennsylvania, New Jer
sey, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky,
Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Jowa and
Wisconsin.

Unemployment is fading as one of
the problems of this distressed de

On the Island of St. Croix the Red

people. When It started the work
It was furnishing sustenance to 3000.
Furthermore the island is helping

The department of the interior.
through Gov. Pearson, is aiding de
velopments as rapidly as funds be
come available. , There has been a
partlaj resumption of the sugar In
dustry, an Increase In gardening and
cottage crafts and some public work'
have been started.
One government measure has given
new life to the bay rum Industry.
Under American prohibition. laws it
was necessary to .use denatured al
cohol In this cosmetic and the
trade with countries In which there
was no prohibition suffered. Now,
a special permit from Washington
allows exportation to foreign coun
tries of bay. rum made with pure
alcohol. . .
Exports Increase, '
Exnorta for the first six months
of 1931 were greater than for any
other similar period and 1930

' Thirty-five local artists will appear

It will be bigger and better than the

that opened the Holly one year ago.
ATLANTA, On. ( AP) One result
of night baseball has been to put a
crimp In the wigwagging of signals
from catcher to pitcher.
In day baseball those mysterious
battery signals which so Intrigued
small boys wore used to Indlcato a
curve, fast ball, slow ball or waste
was wanted.
Elaborate steps were takon to con-
cnnl them. Tho catcher hid his hand
between his legs and under his mlt.
making the signal visible only by the
pitcher and the infield.
But In night baseball they ennnot
easily bo road In the shadows. They
must be done openly. The result Is
that expert wigwag experts quickly
diagnose onemy slns.
The Atlanta Crackers have found It
necessary to change signals ovory In
ning, and In somo games even more
olten.
