Missing At Democratic Harmony Party 'Pressure Of Other Things' Keeps President From Party Gathering WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-()- Senate Democrats gathered tonight at a "Harmony" dinner but President Roosevelt was a conspicuous absen- tee. The Chief Executive, who was ac- cused only yesterday by Senator Copeland, of New York, of destroying party harmony, sent a letter to the party gathering, instead of attend- ing. White House aides said "pres- sure of other things" prevented the President from going. Copeland attended the dinner-an- nounced as a banquet in honor of the new party leader, Senator Bark- ley, of Kentucky-along with virtual- ly all of his colleagues among the strife-ridden Democratic ranks in the Senate. It was a "stag" affair, behind closed doors at tht Raleigh Hotel, with no outsiders invited and even the one woman Senator, Mrs. Caraway of Arkansas, left off the guest list. Senators in charge of the affair in- sisted it was purely social, to honor the new leader, and that no serious speeches were listed. They said al- most a dozen informal talks were bn the program. Vice-President Garner, who has been working persistently since his return from Texas to heal party wounds, was the presiding officer or toastmaster. The President's letter was sent to him for reading at the dinner. Hoover Has 'Heard' Of Republican Rally BUFFALO, Wyo., Aug. 10.-(A)- Former President Herbert Hoover took time out from a trout fishing trip today to say he had "heard" of a proposed 1938 rally of Republican Party leaders. "There have been some preliminary plans for a mid-term rally," he said, still wearing his fishing togs, "but there has been nothing conclusive on He reiterated that he knew nothing of a report he and Alf M. Landon, Re- publican presidential nominee last year, would meet soon at the home of Frank O. Lowden, former Illinois governor.

Seems Iturbi Doesn't Adoref Popular AMusic PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10.-()- Stocky, black-haired Jose Iturbi, no stranger to controversy, jumped right into the middle of another opera- versus-just-plain-music debate to- night. Said Iturbi, Spanish born conduc- tor who stopped a national radio broadcast by the Philadelphia Or- chestra last night because he objected to some popular songs: "There is good American music- but all this I-love-you stuff is just trash. "It is far below the dignity of the Orchestra to play such cheap, rotten, music. See, I cannot permit such stuff on a broadcast." Iturbi left Radio Singer Lucy Mun- roe standing in the wings at Robin Hood Dell here last night and stalked to the stage when he discovered the popular songs were on the program. He is directing the orchestra for the Fsummer. Miss Munroe and Jan Pierce were to have sung the songs-including works by Victor Herbert, George Gershwin, Oley Speaks, Jerome Kern, Frank Laforge and Daniel Wolf. This is admitted regretfully by the3 man who knows most about theL fabled bonanza-William R. Brey- fogle of San Francisco, a grand- nephew of the discoverer. He has de-t termined by a search of family rec-Y ords that the chart intended to guide1 the heirs to the hidden riches was burned by error some years ago in San Jose, Calif. In 1868, Louis Jacob stumbled into a ranch near Austin, Nev., raving mad from thirst and weeks of captivity and mistreatment by the Indians. That was on the edge of Death Valley. In his hands, Louis Jacob held speci- mens of the rich gold ore he had found in the desert. A Poisoned Arrow His mind quickly cleared and he, organized a party to go back to his great strike. The ore was said to be more than half gold, worth some $250 a pound at today's prices. What happened on this and subse- quent expeditions is not clear to the family. Old prospectors' legends on the subject vary. It is related, how- ever, that less than two years after his lucky trip into the valley Louis Jacob was struck by a poisoned ar- row and that he died in Salt Lake City. Knowing the perils of Death Val- ley, Louis Jacob had intrusted a map of his diggings to the present Brey- fogle's-father, who was a prosperous San Francisco lumber merchant. . "My father planned to look for the mine but kept putting it off until he died," William Breyfogle explains. "In, the meantime he lent the map to a cousin, but this man also died before he got to Death Valley. Last Chance Gone "It was my hope also to make the years a piece of it was on display at Austin, Nev." Miners familiar with Breyfogle's story are inclined to place his dis- covery in Amargosa range, a barren mountain chain near the California- Nevada border.

(They indicated the censorship would not apply to foreign consular telegraph and mail dispatches and as far as foreign residents were con- cerned would be used only in "sus- picious cases." (British and' French authorities were reported to have made heated protests.) A drive designed to alienate the Hopeh Chinese from the Nanking Government was seen in the appear- ance of posters and handbills. Some proclaimed: "The Japanese Army is the world's best and strongest." "The Central (Nanking) Govern- ment will never fight Japan and is now only deceiving the Northern Chinese." "The Japanese army is only help- ing the Northern Chinese." "North China is safe forever." Albert Kay (above) reported to police at New Orleans that he had been flogged with a piece of wire cable by Eloise Willis, 17. Miss Willis said Kay, a WPA worker, had gossiped about her. By BETTY CLARKE ' (AP Feature Service Writer) A brunette with a sallow skint doesn't look her best in chartreuse green.1 To prove it, all she needs is a frank friend who will hold a piece of char- treuse colored cloth under her chin, step back a few paces, and study the. effect. It doesn't take an artist to see that the chartreuse brings out all the yellow in this brunette's skin -and it had more than its share of yellow to start with. The brunette can see for herself, if she looks in a mirror. All right. Now hold a piece of pure green under the chin of our sallow brunette. There's a different story The pure green more nearly har- monizes with the brunette's skin. Then try brown, rust and rose beige. Those colors, she'll find, are best of all. You Must Experiment The experimental method is the only one to use, says Miss Muriel Cox of Boston, who has given advise on clothing to hundreds of student styl- ists and department store executives. She carries a huge bag of sample materials around with her, and trots them out whenever anyone asks, "What colors should I wear?" But before she takes up cloth colors, she tests the color of the questioner's skin by holding against her forehead a card with a peephole cut in it. Your forehead gives your true skin color-"background color," Miss Cox calls it. Cheeks are "foreground color," and shouldn't be considered when buying clothes. With the aid of the peephole, an amateurtcansee what color pre- dominates in her skin-pink, purple, yellow or brown. The skin is the most important de- tail to consider when picking clothes colors. Hair and eyes rank second, says Miss Cox. But she makes two exceptions: If you have blue or blue-green eyes-in which case play them up. If you have red hair-in which case you must think of it first. Some Conclusions Here are some of Miss Cox's con- clusions: Many persons wear colors that are too obvious, such as bright red, for instance, which separates the fore- ground from the background. Try blended colors, peach or dull blue, instead. Green is the most flattering color. It brings out the pink in the skin. Navy blue, contrary to sales- girls who swear you look your best in blue, is dangerous. Only women with lots of pink in their skin should at- tempt it. Women with dark hair and eyes can safely essay strong colors, to play up the contrast. Others should try to match the skin, rather than to contrast it. Dr. Dafoe Announces That Quints Now OK CALLANDER, Ont., Aug. 10.-(Ca- nadian Press)-Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe said today the Dionne quintuplets, re- covering from slight colds, were in good condition but, because of their "irritable and nervous dispositions, would require additional rest. Their twice-daily public appear- ances have been suspended until Fri- day and measures taken to assure them more privacy. Additional screening was placed around their hospital to word off excitement from hand-waving tourists. Emilie, middleweight of the quin- tet, already has fully recovered from her cold but Dr. Dafoe said there was no point in exhibiting just one quintuplet, as it would only make the others lonesome.
