British Think He s Tops
By HOOER D. GREEN'S
irew YORK, Sept. 80. (AP) A man In a long black cloak and a
dark crush hat has come 4000 miles to mount the steps of the White
House and tell President Roosevelt what he thinks England think of him.
"His hat Is of the style of '8.
His nose la long and thin,
But his strongest hold
Is a sad. sad amiie
That whtspera or grief within
Hannen Swaffer Is sad. That Isn't
why he wears a long black cloak and
dark crush hat a funebrtous figure
as well known In England as George
Bernard Shaw.
Sad About President
He's sad about the president. He
wants to tell Mr. Roosevelt that
whatever darkling thoughts some
American critics may have about
him. Englishmen "at least, my
crowd," he Interpolated think P. D.
B. Is Is
"Tops?" suggested a reporter.
"Quite I" said Hannen Swaffer.
The 66-year-old London political
pundit and dean of British dramatic
critics, who likes to think of himself
as "the Isst Englishman left In the
world," continued:
"I want to tell the president what
we think of him In England that
you Americans" (he pronounced It
'Ameddlcana' In the best Mayiair tra
dition) "have only had three presi
dents, Washington, Lincoln and
Franklin Delano Roosevelt. All equal
ly great.
Met Dire Need
"Why Roosevelt?" said Swaffer,
who is going home to write about
r. D. R. for 10,000.000 British resders.
"I shall tell you. Because In four
years he has had to Implement 40
years of British social legislation. So
great waa the need and so terrible
the crisis that he has made mistakes,
but his mistakes have been much
better than any of the prevloui Re.
publican triumphs."
A man with a load of curiosity la
Hannen Swaffer. Besldea the presi
dent, he wants to aee and tell his
readers, he said:
1. Whst's wrong with United Ststes
prisons "because we csn't understsnd
11 these riots."
2. John L. Lewis "because next to
Mr. Roosevelt we regard -him as
America's most dynamic figure . . .
and because, you see, I as a aoclallst
understand all these labor troubles."
3. What has become of New York's
famoua "four hundred?" That wor
ries him. "We never." said Swaffer,
"hear about them any more. Haa It
really been discovered as the hooey
It always was?"
4. A typical mldweat town "be
cause I don't believe suoh a thing
exists."
6. Msyor Plorello H. La Ouardla
of New York "because he Is rebuild
ing a great city, not In terma of sky
soraners but In terms of human life
and living."
"And last but not least," he said,
I want to see the "nine old men' In
Washington.
"As an Englishman, I feel you peo
ple worahlp your constitution much
more than we worship Ood. You
don't understand that at the time it
was written It was the most Ideal
istic document ever penned by the
hand of man. But that was a long
time ago.
"Today the United States hat de
veloped Its msnhood but Is still
wearing tha swaddling clothes of a
constitution mesnt for Intellectual
children. You go on worshiping this
dead thing."

teriologists said the water supply
was loaded with bacteria. They had
not Identified the bacteria but be'
lleved it to be one of five typea caus
ing dysentery.
Fifteen hastlly-bullt hospital sta
tions were housing more than 3000
patients. A majority of the dead
were children who, doctora aald, alio-
cumbed because their resistance was
lower than that of adulta.
One unusual feature of the epi

Charlotte Carr, Chief Of
New York's Emergency
Relief Bureau, Has Long
ExperienceFavor Union
By Lydla Oray Shaw
(AP Feature Service writer)
NEW YORK The Jovial, efficient
woman destined to succeed Jane Ad
dams as head of Chicago's famous
Hull House came out of her Inner
office In the congested old municipal
building and greeted us with a hearty
handshake.
Without bene tit of ouzzers or sec
retaries, we the photographer and I
found ourselves within a large map
lined room and In the midst of an
Informal Interview, almost before we
knew It.
Charlotte Carr, chief of New York
City's emergency relief bureal. talked
unhurriedly and readily about her .
days as police-woman In a New York '.
industrial area, secretary of labor In
Pennsylvania, and problem -solver fori
New York's half million relief cases.!
Eager For New Work j
But not about Hull House, to,
which she goes In October. She does'
not feel she knows enough about It
to talk yet. - ;
"Don't say I'm going to fill the
shoes of Jane Adams," she admon
ished. "No one could do that. I can.
only hope to carry out the social j
principles she Instituted. And that's
goings to be a tough job." '
I asked: "Won't life be quieter at
Hull House than here at the ERB?" j
(Mtsa Crrr has wcr.tt-.Td two s--:..i
years In the bureau, the target of
aldermanlc charges that communists ;
Influenced her relief-giving). ;
"People," she responded, "make the
atmosphere, don't you think? I cer- j
talnly don't consider my move to
Hull House a Btep toward retirement.
There'll be plenty to work for and
fight for. Hull House can be a tre
mendous influence In Chicago, par
ticularly In difficult labor situa
tions." Knows Industry First-Hand
Miss Carr 'a views on labor are
close-ups.
She saw the effects of long work
ing hours on factory girls when she
patrolled New York streets In an in
dustrial area. "My Interest In In
dustry bean when I saw those girls
coming out of factories at all hours
of the night, after working 12 or 14
hours. Then it was easy to compre
hend problems of delinquency."
tiiie saw the importance of organ
ized labor when she was assistant
employment manager of a New York
concern where organized workers on
one floor worked an eight-hour day.
and unorganized workers on the floor
above worked ten hours.
"My belief lu trade unions Is an
axiom," she said unqualifiedly.
She worked In a factory. Sho vis
ited factories in England. She han
dled cases for the state Charities'
Aid association, the New York Bur
eau of Women In Industry, and the
Pennsylvania Bureau for Women and
Children.
Gives Credit To Luck
"I've never come to any conclu
sion through (generalization," she
said. "I don't have to. I've seen the
thing too clearly in real life."
Most remarkable of all was her
first Job. Matron of an orphan asy
lum Immediately after graduation
from Vassar. ' But I won't t?U you
where It was," she chuckled.
Incidentally, she finished Vassar In
three years. Not because she was
bright, she insists, but because of
super -boarding -school preparation.
Specialized in economics, though with
no great Intensity.
"I didn't prepare myself particu
larly for my career." she explained.
"And most of it has been amazing
i?ood luck.
