He was one of Germany’s ace generals during
a World War. In later years, when even some of
s friends conceded that his mental brilliance had
named a bit. Ludendorff was a leader in the ridicu-
is“beer-cellar” revolt in Munich in 1928, and later
an effort to restore German paganism at the ex-
nse of Christianity.
^Ludendorff’s last days were spent, however, in

that any city which wanted some
of the $300,000,000 federal housing
money would have to send some-
one here to discuss the matter.
New York newspapers were razz-
ing the mayor.
"Nathan, I want to see you," the
ordinarily peppery little mayor
had said in a conciliatory long
distance call. “Can I come and see
you tomorrow?"
“We're having that conference
tomorrow," replied Straus, “and
we'll be star-gazing all day long.
You wouldn't be interested."
But LaGuardia had $29,000,000
worth of housing projects to dis-
cuss and he came. His original
outbursts are supposed to have
been inspired by friends of Sec-
retary Ickes, who opposed the
Straus appointment.

Gustatory Laurels
The Gourmets Society—that epi-
curean conclave of good eaters and
drinkers—has triumphantly solved
a grim crisis. About five years
ago a little knot of diners of ths
old or "Diamond” Jim Brady
school, decided something would
have to be done about the singular
lack of appeal of American food.
They dedicated themselves to the
uplift of both menus and chews
and so well have they succeeded
that foreign gourmets now ‘ ap-
proach American tables with sali-
vary anticipation.
With its goal achieved, there
seemed to be nothing left for the
society to do but to dissolve and
members faced the cheerless pros-
pect with heavy hearts and empty
stomachs. But President J. George
Frederick had an ideal solution.
From now on, he said, the society
would endeavor to popularize
dishes native to each section of the
country. On behalf of New Eng-
land, Edgar Lee Masters, the poet,
and Charles Hanson Towne were
among the members who applaud-
ed this solution as a stroke of gen-
ius. Incidentally, the highest hon-
or a chef can hope for is to have
the society call him into the din-
ing room for commendation. Lu-
cien of the Hotel Astor got the
accolade at the last function.

ances.
One authority points out that
mental symptoms commonly seen
after infancy include not only
inability to learn in school, but
lack of judgment, lack of reason-
ing power, and little ability to pay
attention.
Feeble-minded children remem-
ber some things but, in general,
are not good for learning facts.
Often they are fond of music, but
usually can appreciate only
rhythm. Such children are par-
ticularly dull in arithmetic.
Many people make the mistake
of confusing the illiterate with the
mentally defective. A recent sur-
vey indicates that there are 4,000,-
000 illiterate and 8,000,000 men-

men all in a dither about the out-
come of New Year's Eve, we would
have you know about Vander Beck
who is the wine steward at the
Astor Hotel.
Vander Beck knows exactly
how much liquid stock the Astor’s
New Year’s Eve revellers will con-
sume while they usher in 1938.
He’ll take reasonable odds, for ex-
ample, on the guess that the As-
tor’s guests wil use up 721 bottles
of Scotch, 500 bottles of rye, 400
bottles of gin, and vermouth and
100 bottles of various rums. Five
thousand bottles of sparkling wa-
ter, he estimates, will go into cock-
tails and highballs. He wants a
margin, of course, but a small one
will do. Vander Beck has laid in
the Astor's stock for at least eight
other New Year's Eve revels and
his computations have invariably
been right.
Recurrent Triangle
One of the most colorful tri-
angles here is the Lolita Cordoba-
Mozellecita Stapp-Prescott Van
Wyck affair and one would have
to go deep into fiction to find any-
thing more bizarre. Lolita is a
Spanish dancer and singer, Mozel-
lecita used to be known to artists
as the “model with the alabaster
body” and Prescott is a descendant
of New York’s first mayor and a
dilettante sculptor. Prescott’s idea
of a good time is to attire himself
in a Hopi Indian war costume with
the sword of Peter the Great
strapped to his side.
Lolita married him not long ago
: and then told a grand jury that a
round of taverns had preceded the
ceremony causing her to forget
she already had a husband. Pres-
cott, who dashes around the city
in a foreign make roadster painted
a bright orange, admitted a few
too many also, and Mozellecita said
she was tired of having the other
two raiding her apartment. There
was a big courtroom scene the
other day in which Mozellecita and
Lolita agreed to be friends—and
no more hair pulling.

Feeble-minded children are
classified in various grades. Mo-
rons are not really the feeble-
minded children of lowest intel-
ligence; in fact, morons are next
to normal in the amount of intel-
ligence they possess.
Below the morons comes the 1m-
becile, and most defective of all
is the idiot.
Parents may do a great deal
with mentally defective children
to maintain their morals, train
them in good habits and select
occupations to which such children
are suited.
It is important to realize, how-
ever, that class handling of chil-
dren of this type is not likely to
be as satisfactory as individual
handling. The kind of treatment
or the type of attention that will
work with one child may fail com-
pletely with another. Every case
must be handled as a special
problem.
Among the most difficula of all
cases are those which represent
injuries at birth. Here there may
be associated damage to the tissue
of the brain. Since the tissues
of the nervous system are the
most delicate in the human body,
repair is likely to be slow if it
occurs at all.

1 How Population Shift
' May Affect Congress
g The trend toward the cities, not yet reversed by
a trickle back to the country in recent years, is a
notable phase's^ today’s life. According to the Na-
tional Resources Committee, this urbanization has
gone on as follows:
In 1790, only 8% of the people lived in cities.
Hr in 1880, the figure was 7%. . '
08 In 1880, it was 26%.
In 1980, it was 66%.
862 In other words, by 1980 we had arrived at a
point where more than half of all the people in the
country wre living in cities. The percentage is prob-
ably higher today than it was in 1930.
It would follow, you might expect, that the ma-
jority of the members of the House and Senate
would be chosen by city electors.
■ But this is not the case. City predominance has
not yet reflected itself in the National Government.
* To the Republicans meeting at St. Louis to de-
vise future plans for the party, comes the magazine
Country Gentleman with figures tending to prove
that 61.6 per cent of the members of the House and
5 per cent of the members of the Senate come from
rural districts; that is, from farms or from towns
of fewer than 10,000 people.
How does this hoppen? Considering an “urban”
State to be one in which more than half of the people
hive in places of 10,000 or more population, there are
only,12 such “urban” States. Washington, Dec. 28.—to
