January 28. 1937 Judge Considering Helser Motion San Francisco (U.R) Federal Judge Louis E. Goodman took under submission Friday a mo tion by J. Henry Helser & Com pany to dismiss charges the firm misrepresented investments in letters to prospective clients. The judge gave no indication w hen he would rule on the mo tion. He still must hear a motion by the Securities and Exchange Commission for a permanent in junction against the Helser firm. The SEC charged Helser de liberately continued a program of misrepresentations in defiance of a Federal Court order issued in 1955 which directed the firm to revise its relationships with clients. Helser attorney Robert E. Burns told the court the letters in question were in "areas of fair comment" and were based on performances which were on record "at the time the state ments were made." He said the letters were based on a survey of individual ac counts and on a company survey which showed an average return of nine per tent over , the life of some 3.122 accounts. Corvallis Council Has Meter Problem Corvallis (U.R) City council men were full of ideas for the lelicf of a harassed Corvallis housewife but Mrs. Charles Hamilton considered none c them very practical. Seems the city installed a parking meter in front of the Hamilton home, at the very spot where Mrs. Hamilton must park her car long enough to open the garage doors. The other day an alert policeman ticketed her car during the moment that she hurried to open the garage. Mrs. Hamilton asked that the meter be removed. Council suggestions included authorizing police to overlook Mrs. Hamilton's temporary park ing, authorizing the police chief to "fix" her tickets, authorizing Mrs. Hamilton to park across the sidewalk, and a suggestion that the woman install a radio controlled door that could be opened from her car. No decision was reached by the council but Mayor Carl Wil liams had word of comfort for Mrs. Hamilton: "according to the law of averages, you shouldn't be caught too often."

Shall show us bow divine m thing A woman may be made. Wadswortb All postmen should be paid more. However, some should be paid more than others. Have you noticed the difference in mail de livery when the carriers on your route are changed? At times the change is for the better. At others, for the worse. It prob ably would not be practical for the government to institute a wage scale for postmen based on comparative ability. However, there is nothing to prevent high ly satisfied citizens from giving their postmen something in the way of a bonus. Even if each family on the route gave their highly capable mail carrier a dollar a month as a bonus it would build up his income con siderably. Among tht Married A Los Angeles man obtained a divorce after 51 years of mar riage. Imagine-being divorced one year after the Golden Wed ding. However, divorce after 51 years of marriage is not the rec ord. In Kansas a man sued for divorce after 62 years of mar riage. His wife was 84 years old. He said she was running around with other men.

Not hard to train and never re sist when a "His" apron is pin ned on them for their cooper ation iu washing dishes or do ing general housework. Cancer (June 21-July 22) men are easy to get and hard to hold. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) men make bet ter bachelors than husbands but if they are unable to keep their liberty, should marry Gemini or Aquarious women. Or, so say the stargazers. Smokers In this country three out of four males of 16 years of aje or older use tobacco in some form. So do two out of five fe males. I forget how old I was when I began to smoke. I start ed with cubeb cigarettes and then switched to a pipe.

King Saud arrives here Wed nesday as President Eisenhow er's guest and, with his large party, will stay at Blair House. His. father would not compro mise in the slighest when he met the late President Roosevelt in 1945 aboard the cruiser Quincy while FDR was en route home from the Yalta conference. Ibn Saud brought his own food, including a flock of bawl ing sheep, and cooks, plus a cere monial coffee maker and the keeper of the king's purse. His was 15 years old I started smok ing cigars. Twins It is possible that a man whose wife gave birth to twins could be father of only one of them? That's what a'Bostonian asks. Men of science say it is possible. In fact, not so many years ago a man seeking a divorce made the claim that he was the fa ther of only one of his twin daughters. ' Curse Of Drink The following is fro a Dub lin, Ireland, newspaper, dated 1874 under the heading THE CURSE OF DRINK: "As a re sult of his lifelong habit of drinking whisky another poor man died in the County Kerry at the age of 104.

Some of the stricter Arabs be lieve that no man should look upon the unveiled face of anoth er man's wife. The veil has fall en out of custom in much of the Arab world, but some of the old timers still believe in the prac tice. So, what happens to Mrs. Eis enhower when King Saud is around the premises? The cur rent king is understood to be more westernized than his fa ther. But the fact remains that the dinner the President gives for him in the White House Wednesday night is to be strict ly stag. The same goes for Saud's dinner in honor of the President Friday night. Of course, the problem might be solved by having Mrs. Eisen hower wear a face veil for a few days. But as someone around the White House said the other day, "I can see her wearing a veil before I belie e she'd let strange cooks invade her kit chen."
