Chief August Hanebuth requested ' Municipal Judge Phillip B. Gilliam ft>r a synapsis of the city charter fcr use by his command. *£ Judge Gilliam dug back into the flies of 1927, the last time the chari~ ier was drawn, and uncovered the following laws: Arrest and fine of $1 for walking along a public street while nursing ft nosebleed. Arrest and fine of $1 for walking on the streets if deformed, diseased .j*r maimed. _ A fine of $25 for playing a musical Tfcstrument in a public place between 9 a. m. and 9 p. m. A fine of $25 for performing acrobatics on the street and there- ||y frightening horses. A fine of $1X) for wearing masks false faces and frightening arses. Judge Gilliam said he would petition the city council to repeal these ^ridiculous" statutes. Holdup Adds 25 Years to His Term for Robbery RALEIGH. N. C.--Cecil King, youthful long-term felon accused of •ymmitting a series of holdups after seeing prison a few months ago, drew an additional 25-year term for robbing Edward Carroll, a Ra- Jjfigh taxi driver. The new sentence is to run con- Srrently with terms King is now rving, which total more than 50 -ftears. King also faces trial for several holdups near Fayetteville. He was Ixrought to the courthouse here from State's prison, where he has been «t>nfined since his recapture, 'v Testifying officers dubbed him a *%iangerous character." VJ* Washing tit Washington, November 15--Reports trickling in from various sections clearly indicate that neutrality is anything but a dead issue. Hauling down the American flag and substituting the Panamanian colors and foreign seamen as the crew for ships engaging in ocean commerce has provoked a storm which grows in intensity. Legislators, who voted for the repeal of the embargoes, are plainly stunned as the clamor among their constituents places them on the defensive. The situation has taken an a long period of years and deeply resent anything which smacks of modernization, The report of the House Judiciary Committee submitted at the close of the regular session admitted that Congress itself had been remiss in developing uniformity in judicinl review provisions of various statutes. Now seeking to correct the errors, the lawmakers find themselves ably supported by the American Bar Association and other bodies, but attacked by powerfully entrenched government officials who do not want their power curtailed. It is an issue for the next session. A sub-committee of the House Committee on Ways and Means is pouring over data here while their colleagues are on vacation. These working legislators have been assigned the unenviable task of devising a tax program which will be submitted to the regular session early in the winter. There has been some talk about raising additional revenue through sot "liiv'irw" »<.- • JTOVdefinitely prohibited from traveling on ernn*ents. too, are scouting around any, veaesls destined for belligerent zones. Reactions to this transfer of ship registery vary. Many critics of the Administration are quick to charge ! intentional trickery in a hidden "joker" carried in the neutrality bill. Others counter with the assertion that change of title to a foreign power is a logical safeguard which will maintain neutrality without hamstringing our exports. The fact that Panama ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR CAKKS Let's All Have Tea Farmers Employ Geese To Weed Cotton Fields BLYTHEVILLE, ARK.--If a new system of removing weeds from cotton fields catches on throughout Dixie, farm implement companies are going to have a huge surplus of Woes on hand. V; Farmers near here are employing geese to weed cotton. And this -jliew system, besides being economical and effortless, has numerous Sidvantages. When it rains, work Isn't interrupted. For geese eat 16 hours a day, rain or shihe. Not only does it save the farmers $K>urs of hard labor at swinging 4loes, but they don't have to buy or : liaise grain to feed the fowl. •>' Bookmaker Has $175, So / Judge Malces It His Fine HARTFORD, CONN. -- Police ,;Court Judge John M. Bailey was Undecided what fine he would impose on Walter Brozyna for taking faprse racing bets until the arresting •officer suggested: "He had $175 in his pocket when I> arrested him." Judge Bailey promptly declared: "Then the court fines you^lZ? and costs." There's something so social about serving tea! Friends and neighbors drop in for a bit of rest and relaxation, conversation flourishes, and the whole house is aglow with hospitality. Serving tea is one of the simplest and most gracious ways of entertaining -- whether you invite one guest or fifty. It may be a cozy, informal affair with only a few "handpick e d" friends invited, and simple bread and butter sandwiches, with a cup of perfectly brewed tea for refreshments. Or, you may plan a much larger, more elaborate tea as a means of entertaining the Parent- Teacher association, the Garden club, or perhaps the Women's auxV iliary of your husband's lodge. Formal or informal, large or small, you'll find that beforehand preparations and carefully laid plans help to make this kind of enp tertaining easy. Admit the limitations of your budget, your equip*, ment, your time and strength, and don't plan more than you can carry out comfortably and sensibly. Remember that a cup of tea and a slice of bread and butter can make a. party if the tea is perfectly made, the bread enticingly thin, and the service dainty and attractive. Keep sandwiches, muffins, cakes and cookies small and dainty. If your invitation list numbers a large number of guests, bake your favorite cakes in jelly roll pans, frost, and cut into small, diagonal pieces. Ginger Cream Cakes. To make these clever little cakes, use the thin gingersnap or cookie ordinarily sold on the market. Allow from three td' five to' a' serving. Put together with sweetened whipped cream in the same manner as in frosting a miniature layer cake. Cover the top and sides generously with the cream, and chill thoroughly. Ground candied ginger may be sprinkled sparingly over the tops. One cup of whipping cream will make six cakes. Orange lee Cream. 1 tablespoon granulated gelatin " % cup cold water 1% cups sugar 1% cups boiling water \Vt cups orange juice % cup lemon juice 2 tablespoons orange rind (grated) 2 cups coffee cream Va teaspoon salt 2 eggs (beaten separately) Soak the gelatin in the cold water for five minutes. Dissolve sugar in boiling water and add to the j , gelatin, stirring --** * until dissolved. Add the orange j u i c e , o r a n g e rind, femon juice, coffee cream, salt, and «beaten egg yolks. Fold in egg whites and pour mixture into freezing container «of ice cream freezer. Assemble and cover. Then pack mixture of crushed ice and rock salt (use three parts ice to one part salt, by volume) around the freezing container. Turn crank slowly but steadily. When hiixture becomes too stiff to turn, remove cover carefully, take out dasher, and pack,down evenly with a spoon. Cover ice cream with wax paper and replace cover. Repack. Cover apd allow to harden at least one hour before serving. ** One-Two-Three-Four Cakes. (Mak^s four dozen small cu£ cakes) 1 cup margarine % cups sugar 4 eggs (separated) 5 cups flour ^ 1 teaspoons baking-powder 34 teaspoon salt 11 cup milk 2 teaspoons flavoring Cream the margarine thoroughly.

Brown Bread Peanut Sandwiches Slice Boston Brown bread very thin, spread with creamed butter, sprinkle generously with finely chopped salted peanuts. Parsley Sandwiches. Slice day-old bread y4-inch thick. Cut into rounds with a doughnut cutter, toast one side, and spread with parsley butter. To make parsley butter, cream butter, add lemon jyire to taste, and .finely -mificed parsley. Banana Nat Bread, cup butter ^ cup sugar *• ' 2 eggs 2 cups general purpose flour Vt teaspoon soda % teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons baking powder Vt cup chopped nut meats % cup wheat bran 1% cups mashed bananM . 2 tablespoons sour milk^ Cream butter and add sugar slowly, beating constantly.

Delicious for sandwiches with butter or with unfiayored cream cheese for Ailing. for probably tax sources to meet the ever-increasing demands for money from the public till. Proposals to divert money from relief projects to national defense requirements are not exactly encouraged by the politicians with a Presidential election just a year ahead. All this preparation is made in face of an old custom which precludes tax legislation in a campaign year. The Treasury Department has re- American ship-owners provokes some disparaging remarks in political circles. These critics contend that in the eyes of the world Panama is regarded as a subsidiary province of this country. They argue that our vast holdings and zone of control around the canal limits the sovereignty of the Panama Republic. The Administration is directing its efforts to appeasing the seamen displaced by reason of American citizenship. The appeasement is taking form in extension of social security benefits and special training schools to fit the affected seaworkers for other enterprise. Mr. Rposevelt and his aides are in a tough spot no matter which way they turn in administering the neutrality act. The several thousand lawyers engaged in private practice now find themselves in a head-on collision with the government attorneys over the question of stream-lining administrative machinery. The private practitioners scent a rallying of bureaucracy in the opposition to a bill in the Senate and House which is primarily designed to expedite the settlement of disputes between Federal agencies and the public. The administrative bodies have built up certain procedures over ancy between the government expen ditures and the tbtal revenues for the fiscal year of 1939. The problem is to obtain an additional three or four billion dollars without regard to the need for funds to retire outstanding debt. This figure is based on the assumption that the present cost of government is to be maintained at present national income levels. • Tax experts are toying with the idea of reducing personal exemptions in order to bring approximately 1,500,- 000,000 new taxpayers into the income system which would raise about $250 million. The Temporary National Economic Commission, consisting of legislators and departmental officials,' has now taken unto itself the role of policeman over prices. The agency reaching for headlines over the last year on other issues admits its lack of legal power but resorts to publicity as a means of enforcing what they may regard as fair prices. While the Commission claims they have adequate funds to continue their inquiry, the feeling prevails that the price matter will give them an excuse to demand more cash from the next session.
