WALLY'S DAINTY DISH SHE SET
 BEFORE THE KING

The Simpson affair did not result in new Amza3- American alliance, but it appears to have rcuasa1 the great English speaking powers closer cehsr in the things that really matter We refe- iG taaa
 It was the Baltimore belle who Sen1 MzT1ar housewives scurryng to their kitchens 10 bury 1sir noses in American cook books after it oec1cns known that the fair Way serving Edward VIII s9gl1es- waffles Maryland fried chicken and frozen asss-rs with her own fair hands. Before the oElslzug2a-s of the American lass the British Euap1rss famed kidney pie boiled potatoes and Brussels sprouts forced to beat nasty retreat Englands fair host esses dashed into the kitchens in person to emerge with fluffy offerings tempt Affords palate in petition with the wnsome Mrs Simpson.
 culinary revolution was underway with the fair Wally leading the charge on Britains roast beef heights with unsheathed waffle iron.
 True, fair British shoulders now doing little shrugging Wally's big moment in Britain is over. She failed to become the Empires queen, although capturing king. and the happy wives of Mayfair can go back to their traditional English dishes-perhaps. We wonder if the American cooking tricks of Mrs. Simpson will not finger English palates long after the immediate troubles of the former king and Wally only history.
 It always will be recalled in merry old England that when she brought the waffles the guests began to sing, now isn't that dainty dish to set before the King?"

A BANKERS VIEWPOINT

Since the crash of 1929 there has been an odium around the word banker implying reactonary thinking But whether founded unfounded in fact, there is indication of very definite swing toward broader viewpoint the part of many of the countrys financers Maybe what happened to the Liberty League has something to do with it. but at any rate here is some evidence. The following statement is from Winthrop w. Aldrich, Chairman of the Boaro of the Chase National Bank of New York City, one of the country's largest banking institutions:
 It is swing away from the intense indi-
 vidualism of the rights of man toward linn
 tied application of that theory. It seeks to
 restrain and direct the freedom of the few for
 the benefit of the many.

THE LATEST WPA STORY

great many stories circulated about WPA the well known Works Progress Administration. It probably is bet whether Mrs Simpson, or WPA offers the best subject matter for the everready joke But in Seattle WPA is easily out ahead having walked off with the honors supreme yesterday, ac- cording to a news dispatch from that city.
 In Seattle, 200 delegates who claimed they rep resented 6000 WPA workers in the state of Wash ngton called officials and demanded collective bargaining union wages, right to strike sick leave and pay for holidays
 No statement is forthcoming yet from Mayor Dore but until he speaks submit that the Seattle WPA story is the best joke offered to date.

self or restrict the effects of it to limits He cannot follow a line of action without affecting somebody else He is no longer liv- ing on frontier, is no longer able to plan for himself alone, no longer free to do as he pleases, irrespective of outside consequences.
 We still believe that it is the business of every responsible person to conduct his own affairs according to his own best judgment. But there has grown up supplementary fac tor which operates to direct or perhaps control the judgment. If wish to avoid the dangers inherent in centralized authority or prescriptive regulation, every man in respon- sible position must study and restudy his de- csions and guide his actions according to his best estimate of the public good. That think, is the outstanding inference to be drawn from the wave of opinion which swept the country short time ago.
 Verify, the world moves ahead.

 Going out to Kansas to breathe the purer air of the Grass Roots Clifford Pinchot progressive of the 1912 model inspired to utter the thoughts that have arisen in him since election day When he attached himself to Governor Landon and the Re- publican party he must have forgotten that the latter the party of concentrated wealth. Now he remembers it. If the party is to rise again, 1t must shake off the Money Devil Recalling the moral awakenings that he has conducted, he wants ito see a moral revival in public affairs
 Hasn't something of the sort been going on in the last three four years? It may have escaped MT. Pnchots notice because it wasn't carried on by the once Great Moral Party It was his misfortune get into the wrong tent He sat among the children of darkness, not among the children of light How the children of darkness to become the children of light? We'll there will be hope for the Republican party If and when it puts itself in tune with the dominant sentiment of the American people" As of 1886 that simple recipe seems to have np other meaning than that the Republican party shall give up business the old stand and join the Democrats altogether too numerous already.
 Under MT Landons leadership it an imitation New Deal party. How much more reorganization lrejuvenation and revival it stand? Can even MT Pinchot be acceptable missionary of reform? A halo like his should have been among the saints and not the sinners in the campaign This afterelection repentance is not edifyng.

Horoscope "The stars incline
 but do not cOmpel'

Although there is an adverse influence that may retard all con- structive effort, benefic aspects dominate today, according to as trology.
 There is a sign read as auspic- ious for the United States Navy which is to make history in the new year. Honors for officers are foretold.
 Neptune is in a place read as pre- saging large profits for merchants and manufacturers of wines, beers and other beverages. Holiday con- sumption will move reformers to or ganize for prohibition.
 This should be fortunate day for asking the support or aid of persons who wield authority. It is lucky time to seek positions and appointments to public office.
 As the winter progresses polite ians and government employees will be less criticised than former ly. Public feeling will become more friendly than it has been in the past.
 During the next few months, es- pecially in March, Neptune and Saturn will affect the waters Of sky and earth. Great power de- velcpment and inventions that as ;ure new economic ones may af- feet devastating floods.
 Warning is given that bank crash es in foreign cities may cause fi- nancial anxiety in the United States. Japan is under an evil omen. as are certain European countries.
 Dictators come under portents that foreshadow an undermining of their power and for this reason war is prognosticated.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of pros perity. Into the lives of many there may come too much romance for serenity and contentment.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be practical and well bal anced. Subjects of this sign usu- ally have imagination which is val uable in literary work.
 Jane Austen, novelist, was born on this day TITS. Others who have celebrated it as birthday include Arlo Bates. writer, 1850; Ludwig von Beethoven, composer, TITO.
