Barber Give-Aways
Banned in Detroit
Detroit V The local Bar
bers Union has decided there'll
be no more lolipops or bubble
gum handed out to youngsters in
the future.
The barbers say the action did
not come because of sticky
chairs or gummed-up masazines.
"It's to correct a situation that
has gotten out of hand in recent
years,'' a union spokesman said.
The union said free bubble
gum was one thing but barbers
didn't stop there in enticing chil
dren to their respective siiears.
"It's no good." the union said,
"when evervbody starts trying
to buy everybody else's business.
It got so bad that one of the bar
bers was offering chances on a
bicycle with every haircut. A
arawing was held each week on
a new bike.
"So we decided to put a stop
to it."
Some 2.000 barbers in the De
troit area will be affected by the
new ruling, announced Tuesday
oy Local 522 of the Barbers
Union.
The ban wasn't aimed wholely
at the children, the union said,
"but we couldn't draw the line."
It also prohibits barbers from
giving away free cigars to Dad
and trading stamps to Mom.

Neuberger Presents
Bill for Orphans
Washington W Sen. Rich
ard L. Neuberger. (D-Ore ), to
day introduced bills in the Sen
ate to permit four Oregon fam
ilies to bring their adopted, foreign-born
children to the United
Slates.
In introducing the special leg
islation, Neuberger scored the
failure of Congress and the ad
ministration to adopt a perman
ent policy to sweep aside bar
riers to orphan entries to the
United States.
Neuberger said that last Jan
uary when he introduced a bill
to admit 10.000 orphans to this
! country he was assured of
prompt action.
"To dale,'' he said, "no ac
tion has been taken or scheduled
by the appropriate Senate com
mittee on this or the dozen or
so other orphan bills which
have been introduced."
