A—16 FRANC WL OEN TOWN HALL SERES Wallace, Gruening, Stod- dard and Kiplinger Also on Program Tonight. Dr. Glenn Frank, Secretary of Ag- riculture Henry A. Wallace, Dr. Ernest Gruening, W. M. Kiplinger and Loth- rop Stoddard will jointly launch- the recently founded Town Hall of Wash- ington at 8 o'clock tonight in the auditorium of the United States Chamber of Commerce. Dr. Frank, president of the Univer- sity of Wisconsin, will deliver the inaugural formal address, discussing “America’s Hour of Decision.” He will raise 10 points in his remarks, and these then will be taken up by the four members of the “panel” designated to be the first to revive the ol dspirit and tradition of public debate in American political life be- fore the Town Hall audience. Dr. John W. Studebaker, now United States commissioner of educa- tion, will preside. Incidentally, his appearance on the platform with ‘Wallace will re-establish a personal association that began in Des Moines several years ago. At that time Dr. Studebaker received a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation to estabish city-wide forums on public affairs in Des Moines, and Wallace was an ac- tive participant in the panels which were established as the best means of | stimulating public debate. i Views Vary Widely. The four panel members represent widely divergent views, and in order to allow them perfect freedom in their discussion, the addresses will not be broadcast. Wallace, as author of “America Must Choose” and as executive head of the Roosevelt administration's radical farm policy. is regarded as a realist who seeks to determine the facts and face them with due regard to the consequences, but without | ignoring traditional theories. Dr. Gruening, director of the Bu- reau of Territories and Insular Pos- sessions in the Department of the Interior, is the author of a standard book on Mexico and was conspicuous for leading an editorial fight in the State of Maine against the Insull utilities. Regarded as a liberal jour- nalist, he is expected to assert the social and humanitarian viewpoint as distinguished from the traditions of international finance in foreign affairs. Kiplinger, economic and financial analyst and Washington business writer whose reports are widely cir- culated throughout the country, main- tains a judicial attitude—neither conservative nor liberal—and is held 8 realistic commentator on the eco- nomic significance of Government action. Stoddard a Nationalist. Stoddard, author of “The Rising Tide of Color.” is regarded as a stanch nationalist and realist who has specialized in international af- fairs. His views are expected to be! in sharp contrast to those of Dr. Gruening. Dr. Frank was famous as the edi- tor of Century Magazine before he was called to the presidency of the University of Wisconsin. Regarded as a bold and unconventional thinker, he is credited with making the uni- versity the center of academie liberal- ism in the Middle West. Dr. Frank's address will be the first in a series of 20 weekly Sunday night lectures which will be presented this ‘Winter. The “panel” system will be used throughout the series. Other Notables Will Speak. Among other speakers scheduled in the Town Hall series are Norman Thomas, Donald Richberg, the Earl of Lytton, Maurice Hindus, Willilam Green, Lewis Corey, Prof. A. A. Berle, Jr., and Dr. 8. Parkes Cadman, whose address on the evening of Easter Sun- day will conclude the first season in this new experiment in public opin- fon. The movement is being sponsored by a group of distinguished Wash- ingtonians, including Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Secretary of State Cor- dell Hull and Mrs. Hull, Secretary Wallace and Mrs. Wallace, Secretary of Commerce Daniel C. Roper and Mrs. Roper, Gen. John J. Pershing, Senator and Mrs. Joseph T. Robin- son, Senator and Mrs. Charles L. Mc- Nary, Senator and Mrs. Edward P. Costigan, Senator Millard E. Tydings, Representative and Mrs. Robert Low Bacon and many other prominent officials, journalists, editors and so- ciety leaders.

William Dunsay of the North Bay Nugget, first newspaper man to Wwit- ness a day’s routine at the Dionnes’ Hospital Home here, found instead that Yvonne, the heavyweight of the five, would rather play than eat and that her sisters already have invented a sweater-pulling game And the babies are feminine, he said. “All five were quite capable of | handling their own bottles.” said | Dunsday in describing meal time at | the Dafoe Hospital, “but like all the r feminine sex, craved attention. So at times the nurses had to hold one bottle in each hand. with the doctor attending to the baby in the center‘ row, Cecile. All Like Dr. Dafoe. | “It was Cecile who was first through with her bottle. Dr. A. R. Dafoe | brought her over to the window where | I stood. Her big brown eyes glistened | with delight and she smiled and | reached for Dr. Dafoe's spectacles. | “All five babies seemed magnetl- | cally attracted to Dr. Dafoe, and al- | though they all would take an odd glance through the window, they soon turned their becoming little faces back | to him. He would shake his head or make a face and invariably they would follow suit—as cute an act as you | could wish to see.” | After luncheon the babies were | bundled up for their siesta in the cool air of the hospital veranda, and tucked in peaked sleeping bags that “made the mites appear as little clowns as they were placed in their carriages,” said Dunsay. “Heavyweight” Is Playful. It was during this process that a nurse “noticed how frisky Yvonne was and recalled that the heavyweight champion of the group had not taken her full measure of nourishment.” “So out came Miss Yvonne from her comfortable resting place,” Duns- day related, “and Nurse Mullins of- fered her the remainder of the bottle. The little one seemed aware | she was being watched and chose to‘ play with the bottle instead of taking | the milk “Nurse Mullins was not to be fooled and so over Yvonne's eyes went a covering. She didn't appear to like 1t, but soon she was taking the nour- ishment in great style. “In the meantime, Emilie and Cecile decided to have a sweater- pulling match and Emilie delighted in grabbing her sister's fingers. Fin- ally Cecile became too tired to bother and slowly her little eyelids grew | heavy and closed.” i All five babies—Yvonne, | thoroughly Marie, Storewide Emilie, Annette and Cecile—were fast | asleep “as soon as they started to breathe the cool, fresh air of the veranda.” Dunsday noted also the precau- tions taken to prevent a mix-up of ! the quintuplets. Each baby's new perambulator bears her name as well as a ribbon which corresponds to the main blanket over the child, he re- ported. The facial features of Marie and Emi.e “are not quite as fully de- veloped as their sisters,” he added, but the lightest of the infants are “as sharp, bright and pretty babies as ever were formed.” U.
