 Propaganda has us all convinced that only women are concerned with being attractive to the opposite sex. Whereas anyone who has ever seen a man smooth down his hair be- fore ringing his girls doorbell ought to realize that men are just as in- terested in making good impress sion as women-only they try hard CT to appear nonchalant.
 So even though they would never think of asking us what we like - we'll tell them, knowing good and well they'll make use of the information.

 Tall, strong looking men.
 Men who worry little, but not much, about our comfort.
 Men who shave often enough, and close enough
 Men who think we ought to be taken care of.
 Men who don't stumble over in- troductions.

WOMEN LIKE tall strong looking men like Gary Cooper.
 Men who can be counted on in little things = to send us flowers when all the other girls will be wearing them; to notice a new dress; to make us feel that we are lovely looking, when the sun or a cold has wilted us completely.
 Men that other girls try to take away from us.
 WE could very well get along without:
 Men who are sissy.
 Men who wear baggy-kneed trousers, and have dirty finger nails.
 Men who bawl out walters and taxi cab dryers.

HIGHWAY PLAN
 GAINING FAVOR
Senator LOnergan Notified of Surveys of States
 on TVll Charges
Special to The DemOcrat)

Especial to The DemOcrat) Washington, D. c. Jan. 22-The Bureau of Public Roads today noti- fled Senator Lonergan, CD Conn.,, that it is nearing completion of a study of his proposal for system of express highways which would operate on a self-liquidating basis financed by toll charges.
 The report indicated that surveys of traffic have been completed in all states except Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and Delaware, Senator Lonergan said, and pre- liminary opinion is that the posSi- bility of self-liquidation will prove to be limited to two or perhaps three long, man lines.
 The Bureau has agreed with Sen- ator Lonergan that a prompt deci- sion is necessary on the question of toll express highways to avoid the construction of additional competing free highway links of similar type, and also to make provision for grade-crossing elimination work and other improvements that would be necessary to make such highway as attractive.
 Senator Lonergan said he hoped there would be some definite re- suits available by the time the reg ular road appropriation bills are ready for consideration in the Sen- ate.

 Q. In a recent issue of the Question Box you quoted Dr. E. Stanley Jones as saying that in Fascism, Religion (Roman Catholicism) is an ally of the state for political purposes. Does this mean that the Catholic Church endorses Fascism?
 A. No; the Catholic Church does not endorse Fascism. On the contrary, the Holy See has more than once severely con- demned acts of the Fascist Party, and warned Fascist lead CTS that certain Fascist policies could not be tolerated by the Church. Thus, in 1881, Pope Plus XI issued the encyclical, "Non Abbiamo Bisogno," in which he denied categorically Fascist charges that Catholic Ac- tion in Italy was political action; in the same encyclical, he warned Fascists against at tempting to win children away from Christian doctrines, so as to make them better Fascists.
 So far as the Fascist Party and the Catholic Church are concerned, there have been no official relations between the two. The Church did make a Concordat, and enacted the La teran Treaty, but the concordat and treaty were made with the Royal Italian Government, not with the Fascist Party. The same situation exists in Ger many, where a concordat was made with the German Govern ment, not with the Nazi Party. Hence if the governments in Italy or Germany changed hands, the concordats would re- main in force until a succeed ing government sought to change them.
 It should be noted that 8 concordat is not sign of ap- proval by any means; it is merely an arrangement where by Church and State agree on recognition of the others rights. so that the Church may pro- ceed with it's divine mission, and the state with its temporal mis sions
