WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK By LEMUEL F. PARTON JEW YORK.—To administer the wages and hours law, which re- cently went into effect, Elmer F. Andrews left a job which gave him shorter hours E.F. Andrews 3nd more wages. Has Taken on As New York Full-Time Job state industrial commissioner, his salary was $12,000, and he could get by nicely with a seven or eight- hour day. This job pays $10,000, and, considering its volume of de- tail, its complications, its novelty and its controversial entanglements, it looks like a 24-hour shift for Mr. Andrews. He is a professional engineer, born in New York, earnest and diligent, a glutton for detail, liv- ing moderately in Flushing with his wife and three children until his removal to Washington. In addition to his five years as state industrial commissioner, having succeeded his former chief, Miss Frances Perkins, in that office, his experience in wage and hour adjustments has been with industrial concerns and chambers of commerce. in the World war. He built gaged in construction work in New ments for the Queensboro Chamber of Commerce, among other large- scale enterprises. In these years he engaged in compensation studies for various industrial groups. He was labor adviser for the National Labor board in the coal mining re- gions of Kentucky, Alabama and Pennsylvania. Never belligerent, Mr. An- drews has been more of an ar- biter than a fighter, although he did take on certain employment agencies for a battle when he was industrial commissioner. He swings no nightstick, and tells the employers this isn't go- ing to hurt them in the least. He is a New Dealer, but goes to Washington with perhaps more political detachment than any similarly placed official down there. Mr. Andrews is 48 years old. HE late Newton D.

In view of J. Edgar Hoover's revelations as to the everlapping of crime and venal politics, Mr. Amen’s political detachment is interest- ing. It is also interesting in our new realization that federaliza- tion of our government has been in part due to the failure of the states really to govern.

James Marshall, president of the New York board of education, is alarmed about our jobless youth, aged from 18 to 24. He says it was this condition which made fascism in other countries and we had better watch our step. He proposes a dras tic national solution. Mr. Marshall is a lawyer by profession, the son of the late Louis Marshall, one of the most eminent lawyers in New York's history. He was appointed to the board of education in 1935 and became president of the board last June.

Marshall By CH S MART, nobby little jacket suits deftly tailored of woolens in art- weave and alluringly colorful literally running away with highest sartorial honors this season, and no mistake! They are the best solution of the problem of what to wear these days. Beautifully tailored, trim and bright as a new whistle, these little suits are equally at home in town or country and are taken as a matter of course for the campus. The mor- al of which is, if you haven't already acquired a nifty jacket suit of vogu- ish woolen, ‘do it now" and you ful weather, It is novelty fabric interest that holds one spellbound in these cun- ning suits. There's all sorts of tricks of the trade employed in adding zest to the fashion such as gaily pat- terned wools used for the jacket with nubbly monotone for the skirt or turn it around vice versa—skirt of gay plaid or stripe, jacket in solid color—and you will win a new style- high point in the game. Or if you want some one weave or color to play solitaire, it's all right with one tone and one texture, just so it’s voguishly jacketed. On the list of wools the fabric pro- gram has to offer you'll find sport- ing tweeds in herringbone, shetland or nubby types in devastating col- ors, fine soft woolens and coarse meshed weaves you'll adore, and plaids and stripes and shaggy weaves flecked in multi-color. Oh, it's a gay ufe modern wool- The type of jacket that repeats Either around lines, uncollared necks shar- ing honors with the classic notched lapel styling. Skirts are slightly shorter and follow, as a rule, the slim tailored line with action pro- vided by pleats or smartly stitched gores. Novelty knit woolens, treated as fabrics, are more popular than ever this season for the jacket costume. A knit wool costume in black is smart in nubbed zephyr combining striped and solid-color fabrics for interesting contrast. The leather belted jacket of striped fabric opens casually to reveal the high band neckline and tiny metal buttons of the striped blouse. The solid color gored skirt has stitched inverted seams. See this model pictured to the left in the group. The light-jacket-dark-skirt combi- nation is an unusually successful type. In the fine soft wool types, in novelty raised weaves or in ever- correct tweeds this style is espe- cially well-adapted to all-day, all- occasion wear. Answering this de- scription is the jacket costume cen- tered in the illustration. Here the jacket is of soft sandalwood-rose wool, lightweight but amply protec- tive. Wrap-around in style, this jack- et has six rounded flap pockets placed slantwise at the front, and a smartly built-up neckline. It is teamed with a dark skirt of choco- late brown wool, with brown belt and brown ascot scarf to carry out the ensemble. Contrast agaln shows up in the three-piece jacket-and-cape costume pictured to the right. The added cape will prove very useful in a season of changing temperatures. The skirt is wine-colored, so is the cape. The button-up-front jacket is of checked wine, blue and white soft wool. © Western Newspaper Union. that's “‘got the button’ is none less than Dame Fashion.

Beauty Requires Proper Diet Young beauty, it is true, can stand a lot more wear and tear than older beauty. Nature does allow a quick rejuvenation of tired tissue, and muscles of the youthful body natur- ally have greater duration of strength. That is why many young girls feel that they can eat and drink what they desire, and sleep when they want to, without losing any of their fresh beauty. They rely on strong facial mus- cles, unstrained tissue, and other youthful assets, to see them through. or she just falls down on her job! by 30 when any American girl should be her most beautiful! and provide strength.

HINT-OF-THE-DAY If you have been down in the dumps and life has grown humdrum it is time you changed your coiffure! An outstanding New York physi- cian urges women to occasionally change their hairdress. He claims it boosts their dejected spirits and gives them a new outlook on life. “It is almost miraculous,” he says, “how a new and becoming hair style can give a woman fresh beauty and thus change the current course of her life. Her interest in things somehow becomes stimulated anew and in a short time the period of dejection passes.” Have Quarter Days Quarter days in England and Scotland are quite different.
