Two moriths ago the Southeast Relief | | League was organized to afford an op- portunity far self-help without charity. | The leagua is still struggling against | odds, but tdiings have been done. | Ways hajse been found to make one roof cover two or more families, one | day's pay !has been made to do many | days of duf y, the wages of one employed | person haw > been marshaled into double, | sometimes triple service. |~ J. N. Batrnett, president of the league, is a Santy Fe switchman. He and his | wife have, been active in neighborhood improverr|>nt and the allied charities. He is a_(leacon and teaches a Sunday scheol clq ss for boys of which his son is & memj ser. | Ba‘ame Families' Adviser. | When 1he Hollywood families began | to have a hard time making ends meet, he becayie an adviser and, in many cases, ams actual benefactor. He worked as a rail1oader and hurried home in his car to vliit_homes where troubles were piling up. Lately Mr. Barnett has been working ¢ mly part time himself. He has not forsy ken the work of the league. which wis founded upon his own idea and patt/:rned after the self-help enter- prises ca1ried on in Seattle and other large ceniters. | It wgs his belief a business could | be fouryted with labor as the capital in- vestme{it. In the Hollywood area, large tracts ire available for gardens. Soon 75 fargilies were enrolled in the reliet league, with & board of managers. The 1 league now is working about 12 acres of gardens. The president of the | Chamber of Commerce gave the seeds. | A banlzer gave the use of an eight-acre Other smaller tracts were planted, the crop prospects include po- tatoes,| corn, beans, peas, beets and mus- tard greens and tomatoes. League Took Over House. Thqa the league took over an aban- coned: one-room house. The men folk put in windows and cleaned it up. That becamie the league's commissary. The tem :needed most in the homes was read, A plan was worked out whereby each man who worked in the gardens or eac h woman who worked in the com- missai 'y recelved pay in credit slips. Those ~credit slips could be used for mone; in the purchase of bread. A aélephone was installed in the com- missary, with a woman in charge. Thrqagh the Kansas City Star and by persdnal appeals Mr. Barnett began to ‘§irum up” business for the league set in motion the machinery of job-Bunting. Soon the Kansas Citians who: had jobs for men and women began to call the telephone number of the league. Aticording to the league’s records 53 men and 27 women and girls have | foun @ work through the league. Six- | teery of those men and women have ob- | tainfed permanent jobs and many of thoy e who have had only cdd jobs have folxj \d that one job will lead to another, so fthat a little’ money is earned from tirge to time. Give 20 Per Cent of Pay. iZach person who gets a job through th): league gives 20 per cent of each 's pay to the league. An equivalent credit slips is given in return for thi> 20 per cent. The league uses the h with which to buy bread, obtain- second-day large loaves at a rate of] about 100 loaves for $1.25. Accurate sqtuunts are kept. The corn, beans, peas, tomatoes and otiner products of the gardens will be | canned by the women and stored in | ba sements. Potatoes will be “holed up” far the Winter months. That supply | widl be “sold” through the commissary return for the credit slips. Those slips in units of 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100, hiave hecome currency to the people in tlie Hollywood neighborhood. The men who work in the gardens obtain 200 | o 'edit units a day, which may be used |t> “buy” clothing, bread or snything | clse the commissary has to offer. The redit slips are small pieces of paper, |signed by the league's treasurer. 11 Copyright, 1933, bv North American News- paper Alliance, Inc.) {FATHER HALTED ON WAY T0 DROWN TWO BOYS Drops Intended Victims When Threatened With Being Shot by Policeman at Pier.

PASADENA, Calif, May 16.—Posi- trons were the subject of discussion yesterday in the two-week sympofum of world leader in phyics who are seeking the secrets of the cosmic ray and en- deavoring to unfold the mystery of the composition of all matter. Positrons are the most newly discov- ered of the high-energy minute parti- cules of the strange family of infinitely small things of which light, life and all matter are {ormced.n 'x:l:ddisoove;e;l :‘ trons, Dr. C. D. lerson, ggay‘mm of the Norman Bridge Labo- ratory of Physics here, is the contributor to the program for today on the sym- posium. These positrons are free positive elec- trons, and their discovery this year in the laboratory, presided over by Dr. | Robert A. Millikan, who first measured the electron, resulted from an analysis of one of the strange behaviors in cosmic radiation. Dr. Anderscn said the discovery re- sulted from the effects of collision of high-energy photons, the powerful bul- lets of light which possess the highest energy ever measured by science, up to eight billion volts. These photons when eject the positron. Taking 1,500 photographs in a Wilson cloud chamber, Dr. Anderson succeeded in getting 3 pictures of the collision of they collide with the nuclei of an atom | a photon with an atomic nuclei, show- ing the positron ejected from the lead barrier in the chamber in which the | collisions. took place. Positrons of energles up to 1,000.- 000,000 volts have been measured by Dr. Anderson, and ~he has measured energies of other particles of similar secondary radiation up to two to three billion volts. Dr. Millikan expects that further re- search work by Dr. Anderson with pos- itrons will mark another important step in the progress toward getting the key to the secrets of the cosmic rays ‘The present sympcsium was arranged in connection with the visit here for the next two weeks of Dr. Niels Bohr of Copenhagen, Denmark. He is Te- garded by physicists as one of the most | advanced leaders in the study of atoms, which study embraces all fundamental secrets of life. Not only the stars, the universe and what exists in interstellar space, but everything that exists, animate and inanimate, physicists say, is composed of atoms. The difference between the different basic elements is merely the relative number and position of atomic structure, this structure being made up of electrons, photons, neutrons, pos- itrons and perhaps other particles not yet discovered. ?|J0B SITUATION BRIGHTER Employment Increased One Per Cent in Pennsylvania. PHILADELPHIA, May 16 (#).—Bright spots in Pennsylvania’s employment situation, described as “rather unusual,” | are reported by the Philadelphia Fed- eral Reserve Bank. Factory employment increased 1 per cent and wage payments 5 per cent from the middle of March to the middle of April, the report stated. “The most pronounced gains in op- erating time have been evident manufacturing groups comprising metal and textile products, stone, clay and glass, and leather and rubber products,” the report sald. “Thirty-two out of 47 individual industries showed a consider- able enlargement of t operations.” A Daily Beauty Treatment Every day tiny particles of dust, grime and soot em deeply into the pores of your skin. ely and safely re- harmful accumulation mo Liquefying Cream. o a delightful liquid seated dirt and grime, which ordi- nary creams fail to reach.

Because the highly-volatile “light ends”—the most important parts of gas—have ewaporated. New R-D-R process insures FRESHNESS in Gulf Only fresh gas gives you these important “light ends.” And Gulf Gas is always fresh. Gulf’s high- speed delivery system rushes fresh Gulf gas to the pumps. And that gas stays fresh longer, due to Gulf's exclusive R-D-R process—a process that actually delays deterioration. Try a tankful of fresh Gulf Gas. It doesn’t cost a penny more. See if you don’t get a more power- ful, a smoother running motor. 5 important facts X ets S g 3 Toons: TG esS, et CHICAGO, May 16.—Two brothers, ages 11 and 3, probably owed their lives yesterday to the threats of two special policemen to shoot their father.
