portant element of the child's life.
The responsibility one assumes
when one is asked to be godparent
is purely a moral one. There Is
no financial responsibility.
Gifts from the godparents
should not be expected" by the
parents, although, Of course, the
godparents usually want to give
q christening gift, usually want
to remember" important events
in the child's life, such as birth
days, graduationS, and all other
milestones along the road Of the
child'S life.
But, to the right.thinking par
ents, this giving Of presents has
slight significance compared tc
the giving Of spiritual and moral
responsibility.
Customarily it is the godmothel
who holds the child while it is
being christened.

Some support arrived near the fourth

had been overdone, even If the worst
that has been feared about fall busi-

the Federal Reserve Board in fur

The Embassy Problem SOiUed
Just a Matter of Transfers The
Davies Family ReHOUates
Thank you please.

WASHINGTON-The question of what to DO
about dingy, unpreposseSSng American embassies
abroad would seem to be practically solved
The idea around the State Department, at
least, is that you just keep transferring AmDaS-
sador Joe Davies from post to post. Or, to be
more specific you transfer the wealthy former
Marjorie Post-wnom Joe recently married
from post to post.
Perhaps the way the boys at the department
feel about the problem Is best lndicated py re-
calling the time when Davies, just appointed
to his present ambassadorship at Moscow, asked
Roosevelt what ought to be done about the Rus
sian debt, and the President wisecracked oack
the suggestion that Mr. and Mrs. Davies assume
The old embassy at Moscow was treated to
new bathtubs plumbing air-cooling and yari-
other renovatons when Ambassador ana
Mrs. Davies moved into 1t.
Right now the gossip about Mr. and Mrs.
Davies emphasizes Berlin.
The American embassy at Berlin, it is pointed
out, is or should be the old Bluecher palace. 1t
has one of the best locations in the city and
this government paid $l,70000O for it. Unfor-
tunately fire destroyed the entire interior about
the time of the purchase. Ambassador Dodd lives
in rented house. But, as they point out in
whispers at the State Department, that interior
offers a splendid opportunity for Ambassador
and Mrs. Davies.
The wealthy men recently named tax
avoiders can thank Vice President Jack Garner
that they haven't been paraded down mere De-
fore the joint tax evasion committee which
has been hearing the Treasury officials tell how
it's done and who does it,
Certain forces within the administration
including perhaps Roosevelt himself-had fon-
died the idea that the "culprits' should be sub
penaed
But one of the last things Garner did before
leaving town to appoint the senatorial wing
of the committee from among the Oldest mem
bers, in point of service, of the Finance Com
mittee which meant the most conservative men,
bers. Most House appointees also were conserv-
ative.
The result was that the committee decided 1t
wouldn't call witnesses, except for the Treasury
officials and the hearings have been quite tame.

the disgusted New Dealers.

THIS IS NOT THE GESTURE
OF A GOOD NEIGHBOR

San Diego county, deriving a large
part of its sumncsr revenue from Impe
rial Valley residents, once again has
opened up an old wound by refusing to
permit the shipment of IL gallons of
milk day to the Hipass Health Camp
from Imperial county. Seemingly, this
is merely a continuation of the bitter
fight conducted by certain San Diego
county interests since 1880 to keep out
milk from Imperial county.
Imperial county, an accredited t. b.
free area, produces milk acceptable al
most everywhere in the state. There
seems no reason except that of private
jealousy for San Diego's actions.
1t seems to us that the San Diego poll
cy is a very bad one at this time, when
Representatives of the coast county have
been Jealous in their protestations Of
friendship-because they want Imperial
county to ship its products through the
San Diego port. Neighborliness does not
work just one way.
