GUFFEY COUNTS PENNSYLVANIA FOR ROOSEVELT IN 1936 Washington, Nov, 24, Joseph Guffey, Pennsylvania's first Democratic U. S.

senator in re than a half-century, counts the Key stone state for President Roosevelt in 1936. Not since Buchanan, a favorite son, has Pennsylvania given its elec toral votes to a Democrat, but it will next he told the nation last night in a radio address which answered former President Hoover's criticism of the new deal. Guffey spoke as chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign committee. He said that Hoover in his recent New York speech did not mention that "his own administration was the first to urge cotton growers to plow under every third row, or that his Farm Board squandered half a billion dollars to make crops scarce." "The difference between President Roosevelt's efforts, as compared to Mr. Hoover's on this score," said Senator Guffey, "is that the President has been successful while Mr.

Hoover was unsuccessful."

Many Needy Turned Away From Distribution Center, With Wants Unsupplied DEMAND MUCH GREATER "It is terribly discouraging to have to turn away children and grown-ups in need of clothing," declared Miss Efflce B. Dllley, supervisor of the Community (Distribution center, which attempts to administer the clothing needs of persons in need of them. The sudden turn of the weather for colder has caiifted many new petitioners to go to the center for much needed wearing apparel and shoes.

During the last three weeks the group of petitioners has grown steadily at the center, where a 75 per cent greater need exists than during the same period last year, said Miss Dilley. "We are trying our beet to administer the needs of these worthy and unfortunate neighbors of ours," she said, "but our stock of apparel is no so low that we have been unable to a.l the needs of many persons. 'It is so hard for us to say that we do not have the needed clothing, especially when children come here shiering. That is our greatest problemto find heavy clothing for all the children." Especially needed arc heavy coats and suits for boys and girls of school age and pre-school age; heavy stockings, underwear, nrafflers and gloves; shoes, heavy dresses, coats for women a.d outing flannel and broadcloth for the making of slips and bloomers. "I have appealed to the people of York so many times that I sincerely hope that they will' not think it has become a chestnut.

"It is such a terrible thing for people not to have enough clothing that I want to appeal once again to thope who may have money or clothing or material that they may wish to contribute. "If you can make a contribution you will be doing something which will last f.ll winter in the form of good heailh for our more unfortunate neighbors. Please call the Community Distribution center by telephone; and we will be glad to make arrange ments to collect any contributions of mouey, clothing or material."

Lord Byron's burial place and famed for the first of the revolts which freed the Greeks from Turkish rule. Welcoming ceremonies in Athens were put off till tomorrow because a storm delayed the Helle's depirtur2 from Brindisi.

mltln John Brenneman is counsel for the plaintiff. Samuel S. Bare a number of years ago became the testamentary guar-. dian of Ellen Mary Stork under the will of Caroline Stork. Ho filed accounts as required by law of his custodianship of the funds belonging to the.

Consider, for example, what hap-, pened in Kansas during the dust storms of last spring. Tho current issues of Heating and Ventilating says: "Those buildings equipped -with air-conditioning systems which could filter 'tho air were faced with but little danger from the dust, wliilo the losses in buildings not so equipped ran into largo sums. ii that air-conditioning was ur.i.'onnly successful in maintaining desr-alile imloor conditions regardless of tho intensity of the dust content and the wind velocity outdoors." Hence the sale of such" equipment experienced a boom; proving anew that it is an ill-wind that bloweth no man good.
