Concerning
Modern Dav
Proprieties
Women Should Never
Go to Night Clubs
Alone.
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: Q) In a great
- city. such as New York or Chi
cago, is it considered proper today for
two young ladies to 60 to night club
without man companions? I use the
word "ladies" in order to make the
distinction clear. ca And in their
home town, which has a population
OF about 100000 but which 'has its
"gay white way" too, does your same
answer as to No. apply?
Answer.-It is not possible to think
Of ladies as going to a night club
meaning any public one alone
Whether they would even be admitted
at all to them, am not sure. At q
real club, meaning one to which only
actual members are admitted and
where young woman members would
be sure to find themselves among
people they know Gas they would at
a neighborhood country club, it might
be (though even this. Is doubtful)
quite all right for them to CO. These
answers apply to both places, but in
the case you mention it is not likely
that they could be members and well
known at private club in a strange
city.
DEAR MRS. POST: I am just 81
and live with a woman who is
not relative and also not very broad
minded about this modern age. I'm
always living in fear that I am going
to suggest doing something wrong to
displease her. A friend has asked me
to go to New York with him over a
week end. His older brother will be
with us on the train and I am to stay
with his married aunt, who has invited
me personally. May 60 and will ]
place my foster mother under any OBJ
legation in accepting this invitation?
I believe in this case that is the one
point that will annoy her especially.
Answer.-If you have received a
definite invitation from his aunt and
your foster mother does not disapprove
of this man Cor of his aunt) I can
see no improperly in your going to
stay with her. Your acceptance of
this invitation will not put your foster
mother under any obligation whatso-
ever.
nEAR MRS. POST: There is a man
I've seen quite a good deal Of
whose family is moving out Of town,
and as his work is here he will have
to find a place to live. Mother has
said that she will give him q home
If you think it will look right to have
him at our house.
Answer.-If your family takes in
other boarders, no one can possibly
think anything about his being one Of
them. Or even If he is to be the lone
boarder" and he is merely one Of many
friends Of yours, people are still not
likely to find anything to criticize. On
the other hand, If he happens to be
your very special friend and then II
his interest in you, or yours in him,
happens to grow less, 1t is possible
that gossips may be tempted to spread
the rumor that you tried very hard to
make him one Of your family but he
got away! OF course, maybe they
won't say anything Of the kind-and,
Of course, too, 1t wouldn't matter, un-
less you might care!

SOCIALIST SET
SEEN CLOSET0
ROOSEVELT

President Roosevelt has en-
trenched behind a barricade OF
socialistic "parlor pinks."
This was the charge made yes
terday afternoon by Mrs. Worth
ington Scranton, Republican vice
chairman in charge Of women's
campaign activities east of the
Mississippi, in an address before
$50 Republican women at the May
flower Hotel.
Mrs. Scranton declared:
''It is obvious the old adage
Of Birds Of a feather flock to-
gether' is true.
"ClOse friends Of the ROOSe-
velts back in the Albany days
have been sOcialistic parlOr
pinks. When he left New York
he left them with a debt of 81
million dollars. It is widely
known that II Roosevelt is re-
elected, the Presidents friend,
Felix Frankfurter, is slated for
the Supreme Court, in case of a
vacancy.
81 believe Mr.. Roosevelt Is one
Of the greatest pOseurS in the
country"
That Governor Landon is "in,
capable of any pretense" was at.
tested by Mrs. Scranton.

BY GASTON NERvAL.

TT Is well understood, by partici-
pants as we'll as by outside OBJ
servers, that on the eve Of pres
L idential election in the United
States allowance should be made for a
great deal of exaggeration and political
fiction-writing in the campaign ut
terances Of those who point with
pride" or view with alarm" the
achievements or shortcomings OF the
party in power.
Nevertheless. not even political ex-
pediency Is sufficient excuse for charg-
ing the present administration with
failure in the field of foreign affairs"
and, believe it or not. the dangerous
futility" of its Latin American policy.
A former Undersecretary of State in
the Hoover regime made such charges
only a few days ago, reviewing what
he called the bankruptcy Of New Deal
diplomacy.
The opponents of the administration
would do better to overlook entirely the
field of foreign affairs, and particu-
larly the record of the past three and
a half years in the relations OF the
United States with the Latin American
countries. Silence would do them
much more good than denunciation,
for the gains and benefits Of the good
neighbor" policy have already been
acknowledged by Latin Americans
themselves as the least disputed ac-
complishment of the Roosevelt-Hull
diplomacy.
Recent Improvement.
This column has often criticized the
errors and abuses implied in former
policies Of the State Department in
Latin America, but the same respect
for honest judgment and historical ae-
curacy which called forth that criti-
cism demand now a recognition of the
Improvement witnessed recently. The
truth Is. as we pointed out when COM
menting upon the Presidents Chau-
tauqua address, that no matter how
much more remains to be done and
how skeptical some people may be as
to the permanency Of the new policies,
never before has so much progress
been made in so short time in the
furtherance Of american rela-
tions.
It Is impossible, within the limited
space Of q newspaper article, to deal
In detail with the record of the good
neighbor" policy-so called because of
the happy phrase in President Roose-
veit's inaugural speech dedicating
the United States to "the policy
Of the good neighbor, the neigh
Dor who resolutsly respects him
self and. because he does so, respects
the rights Of others; the neighbcr who
respects his obligations and respects
the sanctity Of his agreements In, and
with. world Of neighbors." A brief
summary, however, Of the outstanding
features Of the Latin American policy
Of the Roosevelt-Hull administration
should include. ut least. these 10:

A MASTER of economics from
" Princeton University, a for
~ mer lecturer at Johns Hop
4 a kins, a timid young man,
Paul van iceland is the head OF Eu-
ropes most successful government.
The European press speaks about
the "Van Iceland Revolution" won
against Fascism and Communism
against regimentation in general.
without bloodshed; idealogicaf battles
without militant popular fronts and
goose-stepping militias. He recently
began his second term as head of the
government. although he had never
been in politics and the party which
adopted him is not the largest in the
Belgian Parliament.
When Van iceland first took the
helm in March of last year. Belgium
seemed to be headed for ruin. The
treasury was being emptied rapidly,
the budget was unbalanced, gold was
in full flight, confidence was lacking,
banks were toppling into bankruptcy,
prices were nowhere and wages nao
gone with them. Labor troubles were
everywhere, and industry faced q
standstill.
Today Belgium presents perhaps
the most hopeful picture in the Euro
pean scene. The treasury is In excel
lent shape, the budget is more than
balanced, foreign gold is seeking smell
ter in the national banks vaults. Con-
fidence has returned, the banks are
doing good business, prices and wages
have risen and factories are working
gayly. This does not mean, however,
that all the country's problems nave
been solved. AS an aftermath OF tne
crisis there has risen strong SEMI
Fascist movement, the Rex, headed oy
a buoyant young man, dangerous
foe of the Van Iceland regime.
Possesses Personality.
You cannot meet Paul van Iceland
without realizing that he possesses
that elusive something, personality. IL
is revealed in his eloquent eyes, ms
unaffected smile, the vibrant tone OF
his voice and in his words. When ne
speaks his face Is a study In anima-
ton. His thick, bushy eyebrows ana
cleaning white teeth afford q vivio
contrast of black and white.
Even though the worries OF power
are beginning to tell on him, ne
looks considerably less than his 4S
years, and appears entirely unspoiieo
by fame. Hi. movements are angular ;
his handshake cordial, his interest," II
men undiminished. In conversation
he wants to inform and also to learn
obviously he is a man who must pun
every moment to the most pro1taoie
use.
His was the adventurous life OF the
Belgian war generation - facing
prompt extinction, plunged into de-
spair and then confronted with the
gigantic problem Of reconstruction
He could help more than anyone eise'

phere for the promotion Of Pam
American understanding, due partly
to the liberal and friendly attitude
now found at Washington, and partly
to the recognition Of the Latin Amer
ican insistence on equality Of states
and respect for the sovereignty Of
small nations.
This is a record which cannot be
easily matched, and its significance Is
enhanced by the realization that many
Of its accomplishments involved the
rectification and reversal Of mis-
takes made In the past. The fact that
some of those mistakes can be laid
at the doorstep Of previous Democratic
administrations does not detract from
the credit due the present one for
correcting them: II anything, 1t adds
to 1t.
