MyStar

As / look from my window, wide,
And see the stars, at night,
/ think they represent past friends,
Who, to my life, brought light.
The dim stars are for those who
passed
BY, quickly, with a smile.
The bright ones typify dear friends,
loved a long, long while.
As day pass, heetly, by I want
To be the kind of friend
Who leaves a pleasant memory
With all, until the end.
And If the stars perpetuate
Your friends, each lovely night.
/ hope one will bring thoughts of
me
And be extremely bright

met with widespread dissatisfac-
ton.
The President can no more dis.
sociate himself from the New
Deal than Mussolini can dissoci-
ate himself from his Ethiopian
misadventure. Both leaders doubt
less received advice and help
from their associates in fOrmu-
lating their plans. But these
plans would never have been put
into effect il the chief of state
had not so ordered il.
In President ROOseVelt's case Il
is only necessary to recall that
the principle New Deal measures
were presented to Congress by his
brain -trusters already drafted In
legal form. ALI that Congress
had to do was to ratify them
and when they tried TO interpose
changes the President took no
pains to hide his displeasure.
The eagerness of the Roosevelt
supporters TO dissociate +. d. r.
from his blnnders is clearly
shown in their endeaVors. when
popular criticism Of Messrs. Tug
well and Farley was acute, to
suggest that these two men would
soon be replaced. But the Ameri-
can people were not to be fooled
so easily. They simply asked the
pertinent question: Who appoint
ed Tugwell and Farley? and fol-
lowed Il by the impertinent qtIes-
ton: Why does not Mr.. ROOse-
welt get rid of them?
Similarly, when the policy of
killing young pigs reused natiOn-
wide. Indignation Mr.. ROosevelt's
passed around word
that this was no policy of his but
had been imposed by Secretary
Wallace. To this the critics
simply asked: Who is respon-

So also political Washington

ROOsevelt's attempt to jam thru

he calmly denied that he

The only comfort that his sup

CONFERENCE URGED
ON PHILIPPINE ACT.
Foreign Policy Association
Cites Independence Law
Deficiencies.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt had q sug-
gestion today that he convene an
economic conference to correct i'm
projections or inequalities" of the
1884 Philippine independence act.
The suggestion came from the
Foreign Policy Association, which de-
scribed Gen. Douglas Macarthur
Philippine militarization program as
evidence Of what amounts to q
covert conspiracy to keep the United
States in the islands"
Detailing problems faced by the
Filipinos on the road to independence
. report by the organization suggested
the plan to create standing army Of
20,500. backed by 100000 reservists,
was intended to strengthen military
power in the Western Pacific in the
event of war with Japan"
Organizes Defense Program.
With President Roosevelt's approval,
the former chief of staff started this
year to organize defense program
for the new Commonwealth regime,
which was designed by Congress to
bridge the gap to complete independ-
ence in 1916.
David H. Pepper of the associations
research staff advanced the reason
able hypothesis" that with the i'm
minent expiration of the non-forti-
hcation provisions of the Washington
naval treaty the American Navy may
develop a first-class base in the Philip
pines.
If war comes" he added, the
Islands might then be held for q
time by Philippine American forces,
tmmobilizing sufficient Japanese
strength to facilitate naval opera
tions against Japan in the north by
way Of the Aleutians."
The consumption system devised by
Macarthur, said the report, would be
"a potent weapon in the hands of
President manuel L. Quezon should
he consider it necessary to quell I'M
rest by dictatorial methods"
Legal Dictatorship"
Queson's first year at the helm
was described as a legal dictator
ship"
Unless a statesmanlike policy is
pursued prior to independence, the
United States may be forced by the
breakdown of the commonwealth gov
eminent to intervene under the terms
OF the independence act" the associa-
ton said and added:
If independence is to be won and
maintained it will be necessary to
combat what amounts to q covert
conspiracy to keep the United States
in the islands. The pressure exerted
by Philippine and American CONNER
cial groups with a stake in insular
economic life coalesces with certain
moral factors involving racial pres
tige, American influences in the Far
East and the United States obliga-
tons to rescue the Filipino from the
clutches of other nations"
completing this nexus of imperial
list thought is the apparent attempt,
under American military authorities,
to make the islands q strategic asset
to the United States"

really little boy, or very bright or different or
anything! He's just nothing but little boyl"
II never knew before you disliked Buster"
her father observed mildly. He was always
being mildly baffled by Isabelle.
"And you must control your emotions,
Isabelle" her mother said "After all, though
we've seen little of him, now he's growing up,
Buster is almost like member of the family"
why, don't dislike Buster" Isabelle
protested. She was genuinely amazed that her
parents had so completely misunderstood her
remarks She had merely used Buster as an
individual case in what was to her generali-
zation on all boys who were no longer infants
and still were not old enough. in her opinion,
to be eligible for her favors.
RosaGe Cummings was, for once, not re-
garding her child with her usual amusement.
In spite of Isabelle's protestations of friendi-
ness for Buster, Mrs. Cummings was alarmed.
She foresaw the possibility of most un-
pleasant relations arising between the Dixon
and Cummings household. Mrs. Cummings
knew the often overbearing exuberance of
Buster, and she could imagine what would
happen if he decided to plunge into Isabelles
affairs. Isabelle, in the manner of the young,
would squelch him with what would be to her,
and to Buster, biting sarcasm; Buster would
rush to his mother with vivid account of the
entire proceedings; Charlotte Dixon, being
hyper sensitive soul, would Immediately rush
to Rosalie with still more vivid story, which
might lead eventually into any number of
unhappy and fearful scenes. So, with solemn
emphasis, she warned Isabelle:
Honey, I've always tried not to interfere

why Buster!" she squealed her amused
amazement. This mere child thinking he
could impress her with dinner coat she
who had been going out with boys in dinner
coats for ages and ages, practically over a
year. Why, during Christmas vacation, Cliff
ford Reed had even worn tails, white tie and
an opera hat!
Her heart tripped to faster beat at the
thought of Clifford. At the moment Clifford
was the love of Isabelle's life. She remembered
the way he had looked at her when she went
down with the crowd to the station to say
goodbye to the boys who were going back to
college; what he had said, "Just a few months
then II remember, the first night I'm home,
I'll see you. Remember, Isabelle; it's date"
And then so tall and good-looking, he had
swung up into the train and grinned down at
her

but Clifford were home again, and in her
purse she had his last letter saying he would
be home just one week from today.
With an effort Isabelle stopped thinking
about Clifford and gave her attention to this
youth, Buster Dixon: why, Buster, that's
awfully nice of you to ask for dance. but
you know how it is -" She suggested with an
appealing, tentative smile, Maybe some
thing1l come up Saturday night and I'll have
spare dance. after all. If do, I'll certainly
be glad to give it to you" She knew it was
safe thing to say. for she never had spare

dance; she could afford to appear gracious.
Buster was a changed person. Now he could
show those guys who came banging into this
store and yelled out orders for sodas as if he
were kid in grammar school; showing off
just because they were eighteen and nineteen
and twenty years old. Well, they'd have their
eyes opened; they'd realize thing or two
when they saw him dancing with their girl
Saturday night. He was a regular man now,
himself, and he was in the race right along
with the rest of them!
That night at the dinner table Isabelle
thought of Buster Dixon for the first time
since she had left the drugstore: her mother
was saying to her father:
II went over to see Charlotte this after
noon." Charlotte was Busters mother and
she and Rosalie Cummings had been bosom
friends from childhood "And lucky thing l
did 60 over. 1t was Busters birthday and I'd
completely forgotten it."
well, for heavens sake, Mamma, i" Isabelle
said, just to get into the conversation, IF you
had to 60 around remembering people like
Buster Dixon's birthday, you certainly
wouldn't have time for much else"
Isabelle, lamb, isn't that a rather silly
thing to say when you know how fond am of
Buster2''
Really, Mamma" earnestly Isabelle ex-
planned, II may seem silly to you but really
never could see how anybody could be really
fond of Buster, unless he were your own child
and you had to be. Why, he isn't cute like

Hello, Buster!" She spoke absently to
the boy standing back of the soda fountain.
Usually alert to the slightest sign that a
male had been smitten by her charms, Miss
Cummings was so little interested in Buster
that she failed to see how suddenly shaky
was his hand as it put down the glass he had
been polishing when she came in.
She perched her small and dainty self on a
high stool and ordered a concoction of ice
cream, sYups and cherries. When Buster set
it before her, she asked him in preoccupied
yet agreeable manner:
well, Buster, what do you know"
''Oh nothing much. " he replied, and addh:
''It's my birthday today"
Really, Buster?" Isabelle exclaimed in
the tone of one who marvelled at the prattlings
of babe. Gracious, he was year and prac-
tically four months younger than she was!
And whatd you get for present, Buster1"

ALASKA TROUT AND STRIP FISHING GETS
 FURTHER PUBLICITY

Trout fishing ana strip fish, ing for salmon in Alaska is given further widespread publicity in Cooks Sporting Goods Manual pub lished in Denver. Rex Beach, fa- nous Alaska author, describes strip fishing in a most entertaining article in the manual and Corey Ford and Alastair McBain, also well known Alaska trout fishing enthusiasts tell of some of their fishing experiences up here last summer. All three of the well known writers hold nothing back from the disciples of Izaak Wal ton. They give 'em the works and indicate there may be fishing else where but most of the good fishing is in Alaska
