THE 3 M C-,HI G A N-s,3I VU PAGE T FERA Office Force Works As A Machine But Terror And Laughter Are In Human Letters Appealing For Relief By SIGRID ARNE WASHINGTON, July 22. - (/P) - The 400 men and women who make up the Federal relief administration's staff here have gone through three phases of philosophy since they took their places on the distress firing line. Frist, great shock and worry over the hundreds of thousands of fam- ilies imploring help. Then, punch-drunk, a phase of an- noyance at the insistence of many and the angry vituperation of some. Then, a knowledge that only swift, cold, methodical office work can speed help to the homeless. .Tears and wor- ry at headquarters only delay. Like Clearing House Now the office force has settled to a workman-like organization that would be difficult to distinguish from any large business concern. Stenog- raphers in rows; filing clerks at cab- inets; deputy administrators pouring over reports; regional men returning to describe their territories. The Washington office - and thou- sands of unemployed forget this - is merely a clearing house. It has no money to spend on its own authority. It can't send shoes, doctors or the rent to the needy. It can only grant money to the states, and advise on and check the spending. One group at headquarters acts as accountants. It goes over the books of the states and determines how much the states can afford to pay for their own poor. Determine Human Needs Another group determines the hu- man needs; the number of penniless and unemployed, the sort of people they are, the shortest way for states to rehabilitate them. Another group gives technical ad- vice on work projects. And the fourth deals with the rural poor and stranded populations, such as lumber towns where the forests are gone. But the people on relief know little of organization. They forget their own state is responsible for them, and they write their troubles to Wash- ington. They write of everything from hunger to sick cows and unfaith- ful husbands. Storm Postpones Flight By Russian MOSCOW, July 22. - (P),-A sud- den electrical storm broke over Mos- cow this afternoon and halted the take-off of the Soviet's "mystery" plane on a 6,250-mile flight over the North Pole to San Francisco. Further unfavorable weather was forecast. Because of the secrecy attending the proposed flight there were reports thatthe plane had already left. These were denied, however, by Assistant Manager Vofan, of the sea route de- partment. United States Ambassador William C. Bullitt had postponed a vacation to the Black Sea to be present at the beginning of the flight. Sigmund Levaneffsy, one of the So- viet Union's most celebrated fliers, will be in command of the flight, His co-pilot will be Baibukoff and his navigator Levchenko, who came into prominence as the rescuer of James J. Mattern when the American round-the-world flier was stranded in Anadir. Bearded Ethiopian King C -als For ' War To Death' r' i' a9M 'C r y i i e ! o w es r 1 " A1 j Y S -Associated Press Photo.

' The Store Where Quality Rules HOLLYWOOD, Calif., July 22. - M - Riders of the romantic past, says Tex Austin, couldn't hold a candle to present day broncho bust- ers. The towering New Mexico rancher, who is here not to enter the movies but to stage a cowboy contest August 3 to 11, makesthis observation after 25 years of active participation in rodeos in London, New York, Chicago and other cities. Austin also takes a long step to- ward exploding another pet theory about riding broncos. "Anyone who says he never was throwed," drawls Tex with ungram- matical emphasis, "never throwed a leg across an outlaw." Cheek Straps Gone He doesn't exempt any of them - not even the winners of Calgary stam- pede, the Cheyenne frontier days, the Pendleton roundup or the Fort Worth and Salinas, Calif., rodeos. "I'd like to stake out and subdivide all the ground I've seen the best riders in the world looking for when one of those broncs decides to move out from under. Why, I'd have a million dol- lars." "Riding has changed so much since then," he explains in talking of the old-timers. "In the old days they had a lot of equipment to aid them. They had a check strap to keep the horse's head up. They rode in tight cinched saddles and they could hang on with their spurs. "That's all out now. There is nothing to keep a bronc from getting his head down so he can. buck. There are no tight cinches to takethe fire out of a mount. When a rider comes out of the chute, he must have both spurs high on the shoulders and then bring them back when he's in the open so the judges know he hasn't got a hold. Milking Race Needed Rules Tex says rules were needed to off- set the ingenuity of riders in figuring out new ways of subduing their mounts. "Just like the wild cow milking contest we used to have," he ex- plained. "We paid prizes for the win- ning team of two cowboys. One ran out and caught the cow and the other dashed out with a quart bottle and filled it to a certain mark. , "Well, the first thing we knew, one of the boys was back again almost as soon as the cow was caught. You see, he had the milk in the bottle before he started. So we made a rule covering that. "I gave up trying to beat the in- genuity of the boys on that and stop- ped staging milking contests. After all, no real cow hand milks cows anyway." s6 I Where To Go i i By RUSSELL B.

H. B. Kellogg followed Elsworth and Pat Gannon took third. Elsworth tops all contenders in the meet totals, having 490 points, while Kellogg is second with 410 points. All other contenders for the meet crown are more than 100 points behind the two leaders. The 50-yard breast stroke competi- tion will be held tomorrow afternoon. SAN FRANCISCO, July 22.-(W) - They're "on work relief," and their job has spooky aspects - building a seawall with 'tombostones - but Ed Thornton and his crew don't mind. They don't think of ghosts, and there's no murmur of complaint, even when they have to labor by moon- light in the ebb hours. Some of the men stand in the wa- ter while the spray beats over them and the wind from off the Golden Gate intensifies its chill. Occasion- ally one stands erect to balance on one foot, remove a boot and pour out the water. 'Bread And Self Respect' "It's bread and butter and 'self re- spect,' and every time I look up and see one of those headstones they're building into the wall, I'm better satisfied," says George Gordon, one of the youthful workers who has tem- porarily abandoned his ambition to become an architect. "Well, the boys really do make fun of it, especially on the late night shifts when they have to work at mean hours to take advantage of the low tide," explained Thornton. The wall being erected on the Ma- rina is 12 feet thick at the base, 15 feet high and will be several thousand feet long. Old cobblestones, the tombstones of two abandoned ceme- teries and salvaged rock from an old wall are being used to avoid costs of new material. No Labor Trouble "See those huge rocks down there?" asks Thornton. "Well, they weigh up to 20 tons each. We rigged up a 'snatch' tackle to help, and the boys waded in, in the moonlight, and heaved in rhythm to the tune of the 'Volga Boatman" and simply pushed them out of our way. When the big stones first began to give, they let out a great shout. Talk about an organ- ized rooting section! We've got one. We chant Southern melodies and other songs and it's because we make fun of it - partly -that we've not had a hint of labor trouble for more than a year." "I'm not ashamed to be on relief worthwhile job we're doing, but I don't let the folks at my rooming house know I'm on work relief be- cause so many of the early jobs were so foolish and so clearly charity. Some day I hope to get back to pri- vate employment. Uncle Sam's O.K. as an employer, and I'm grateful to him, but you see it ain't like working for a private boss. This kind of work can't last forever and I'm anxious to get back into something where I can get established." "Any prospects?" "Sure. A couple of years ago I made the break and I almost got away with it. A friend and I saved our money by about starving ourselves, and answered one of those partner- ship ads. The guy was supposed to be doing so much business he couldn't take care of it alone. So we bought in and the first week we split 75 cents. That washed that up and my friend beat it. Tomatoes All Froze "We had bought a truck on time and the next day the finance com- pany came around to take it back. I talked them into giving me another week, borrowed $5 and started out in the produce business buying and selling fruit and vegetables. "In no time at all I had $1,500 in the bank. So I contracted for a big patch of tomatoes. Got a good buy too. But a few days later a frost came along and every doggone tomato was frozen. This time the finance com- pany took the truck. "But I'm saving my money agair and I'll make a go of something some of these days." SWIMMERS WARNED A warning to students to refrain from swimming in warm, crowded pools in the neighborhood of Ann Ar- bor was given yesterday by Health Service offcials. Several students have contracted diseases from swimming in crowded pools this season, officials revealed. S. R. O. The nomu~ionnof the n ntn. grl sIay .tt / 1} 0
