should not be necessary to call to the attention of those
in charge of the public works program the necessity Of
using American materials in the gigantic program of
structon which is to start
However, is well to be the safe sde and the Public
Works Administrator should allow the haste with which
the program is getting underway to for
failure to utilize Amercanmade products
The purpose of the entire program is to put American
and women back to work.
To just the extent that foreign made materials used
in the program that purpose will be defeated.
The regulations which being drawn up adminsra
on of the public construction fund must give every possible
protection to American industry by requiring that contractors
use American products their jobs.
The actually employed in carrying out the contracts

Jobs as result of the program
Every bit of material going into the and buildings

Those Jobs must go to Americans.
There ample authority in the law for requiring Amer

That authority should be utilized from the start of the

To import the products Of cheap labor from abroad to carry

A Monster

You are aware, in Trafal-
gar Square or Piccadilly or
on the Embankment, OF a
delicate mist, faint and
volatile, drifting like idle
cigarette smoke in the cur
rents Of air. But presently,
as if by magic, it becomes
an overwhelming monster
destroying the world you
are familiar with and cre-
ating a wanton, monstrous,
grotesque world Of its own.
You grope your fearful
way along a wall or, seized
with strange terror of
movement, stand transflxed
at a corner. The voices that
come to you-voices of bus
men and taxi drivers and
bobbies-take on a rounder
heartiness than ever they
have in the lost sunshine.
Policemen loom up out Of
nowhere, like incredible
giants.

such an accurate road map,
such a clear knowledge of their
destination and such a COM
plete guide to men!
Only two short years ago,
reckless young couples were
being married in airplanes and
parachuting down to earth in
a foolhardy way that was SYM
bolic of the flighty and short
lived marriages of that day.
Every other marriage was just
the first step toward Reno
the brief interval between the
courtship and the courthouse.
The average girl was COM
pletely at sea about men. She
didn't know whether to be sub
tie and vampish and sophisti-
cated-or to be frank ana
friendly and casual. Whether
to be sweet and feminine and
old-fashioned-or to be wild
and gay and full of whoopee.
She couldn't decide whether
to darken her eyelids, soak her
self in heavy perfume and go
about half-draped-and appeal
to a man senses. Or to swathe
herself modesly in chiffons, cul-
tivate a slinky walk and try to
appeal to his imagination.
She didn't know whether to
rush into a mans arms and
respond eagerly to his kisses,
and run the risk of frightening
him off. Or to snub his over

Weird Experience

If you have ever been
caught out in a real London
fog, a regular "London's s par
ticular," you have had one
of the weirdest experiences
known to man. You found
yourself in a mysterious and
fantastic world; a world as
unreal as a dream, shot
through with nightmare; a
world of ghosts and battling
whispers and murmurs.
A great London editor,
Muirhead Bone, has de-
scribed a London fog in that
delightful work of his called
"London Perambulator." 1t
arrives, says Editor Bone,
"like something young, deli
cate and playful. AS charm

Now that Congres S has
gone home and the President
is resting up from toll that
makes the labors of Hercules
seem like a round of clock
golf, Lon d on becomes the
news capital of the world.
Black men, brown men, yell
low men and white men, rep
resenting sixty-six nations,
are threshing out the prob
lens that sorely vex the
world.
Always a fascinating city,
London Town finds itself the
center today of the hopes of
humanity. 1t is difficult to
think of a great city which,
of it's own suggestion, throws
more arresting pictures upon
the screen of memory.
And of all the pictures of
London, this writer likes best
to think Of the old city as it
lies blanketed by fog-one of
those all-enveloping, allen
bracing N or h Sea fogs-
which makes all cats gray
and all humans strange
wraiths from the unknown
and the unpredictable.

Sober citizens find them
selves in public houses, hob

Strange companionships are

Dark deeds are done that

and prisoners on bail lose

dents get quite lost. Cats

it were night.
In private houses people
light up their rooms for
cheerfulness against the all
pervading yellow murk that
blurs the city. You glance
into windows and see lit in
teriors, with figures pre-
cisely like stage scenes
framed in black. You can
study the tastes and fashions
of a past century in old
mantlepieces and modelings,

Fog Pictures

1t is all like something
from the brush of Gustave
Dore, a phantasmagoria of
djinns and mumbling lost
spirits. The long dead past
has a trick of escaping the
tomb and living again be-
fore your eyes. A great
London editor said to me:
"The oldest sight almost
that ever came before my
eyes was one of tn ose
strange pictures of the fog.
1 was marooned, appalled,,
peering for some landmark
to help me on my way,
when out Of nowhere, in the
general mystery, came a
glare Of torches and a body
of men. The torches were
carried by liveried footmen
and policemen. On me
the group, slow-paced, the
flare Of the torches sending
weird CLEANS through the
enveloping murk.
"They passed me close
BY" said Muirhead Bone,
"and in the brief illumina-
tion of the torches I saw, in
the center Of the group,
portly gentleman with a full,
neat beard, partially cloaked
by an Inverness cape. 1t
was Edward the Seventh,
King Of England, m a kin g
his way home with his gen
tlemen to Buckingham Pal
ace, guided by linkmen and
torchbearers, precisely as his
Stuart ancestor wended home
through the fogs of three
hundred years ago."

OF course it must be taken

wealth has mellowed many
who, heretofore, have been

But, in general, there is

Is that what's happening?
And, if it is, are you sur
prised, shocked and furious,
broken-hearted and filled with
self-pity?
But why should you be?
Why should you be surprised
because they don't know the
difference between right and
wrong?
Why should you be shocked
because they can't pick "the
fine things" of life, but prefer
the sensational and shoddy?
Did you ever give them a
chance to learn the difference
between right and wrong by
making them, when they were
little, suffer the consequences
Of wrong decisions?
Did you ever help them choose
the ''fine things of life." or did
you insist that they follow the
conventional pattern, whether
or not it seemed right and fine
to them?
And if you insisted that they
follow patterns, why should you
be so amazed because they are
now following the patterns of
their wild young contemporaries,
instead of doing their own in
dependent thinking?
Aren't your children doing ex-
actly what you prepared them
to do?
Just a Copy-Cat
You were a copy-cat in safer,
simpler times, weren't you?
Aren't they just eating,
as you taught them to do, in
these more dangerous times?
And why should you be filled
with self-pity because your chill
dren now reject your ideas and
say you're behind the times?
Were those ideas ever YOUR
ideas?
Did you ever dare to do any
real thinking for yourself?
Have you made any real ef-
fort to keep UP with the times?
In short-isn't this what you
asked for?
If you wouldn't keep up with
life, why should you expect life
to loiter along with you?
If you wouldn't teach your
children to stand on their own
feet, why should you rave when
they Wobble?

And men were equally haZy
about women. They suspected
all women-but we're never
quite sure of what they sus-
pected them.
A man could never make up
his mind whether girl would
be indignant if he played the
heavy lover on the way home in
the car-or insulted if he didn't.
He never could be certain
whether she was playing for a
wedding ring-or just playing
him for a good thing.
He never could decide whether
she was bent on taking him
for LIFE-or just on taking
him for a ride" He never
could tell by her manner or her
makeup or her ways or her
chatter, whether she was a
'lady" or a "hussy." And he
was quite as much afraid Of
the one as Of the other.
