And when you inquire around you will find half of those who are worrying about our young folks ‘are gallivanting around the coun- try—and are creating a youth problem in their own bailiwick, by neglecting their own off-spring. So far as I can see, there is no youth problem that requires any mama or papa to go up and down the country on a lecture tour. By staying home and keeping a weather-eye on activities there, they would solve the whole prob- lem. But some people like to lec- ture. They are the problem versus the youth.

The exhibi’ of agricultural implements will be the largest to be seen at any Eastern fair. Grandstand attractions this year include a nightly all-girl Broadway Revue and the pick of American and European circus acts.

Slums of Smaller Cities Face ‘Clean-Up’ Program Awakening of smaller communi ties to realization that slums exist in their midst as well as in the larger cities is evidenced by their increasing participation in the USHA low-rent housing program, accord- ' ing to Nathan Straus, administrator of the United States Housing author- ity. Twenty-eight cities and towns with populations of approximately 10,000 or less already have organized local housing authorities for co-operation with the USHA, Straus has an- nounced. Seven of these communi- ties have obtained commitments for | USHA loans to finance 10 propesed | projects. Two, including one with less than 2,500 population, started construction of their proj- ects, while three others have had USHA loan contracts approved by President Roosevelt. “When the United States housing act was before congress two years ago,” said Straus, ‘it was gener: ly believed that the large cities would be the principal beneficiaries. Few small cities and towns had be- gun seriously to lock into their hous- ing problem. “Today the picturc is ferent. munities have organized active hous- ing authorities. In most ce these local authorities have the ar- dent support of their local govern- ments and of local business, trades civie and social groups—from bank- ers and other business men to labor unions and welfare workers.” ses, also, Unusual Vase Collection Miss Katharyn Hawley, librarian of Franklinville, N.
