Do you know that

Do you know that
your wife can protect her
looks and her health, and
save money in the bargain,
by sending her laundry to
Manhattan? Well, it's a.
fact! No wife need be a
"washwoman" in this mode IN
day and age.
From 40 to so assorted
pieces can be washed (by
Manhattan S famous Net
Bag method) all flat
pieces sized, mended,,
refully ironed, and
wearing apparel returned
just damp enough for easy
ironing, for 100. That's
Manhattan IS total charge
tor a 9-pound bundle Of.
Thrifty Service.
Now, from every angle,
doesn t it make good
sense to send Manhattan
the washday worries?
Why not speak to the Mrs.
about this?
Sincerely,
Manhattan Company

Defended in Hartford Talk
by Francis B. Sayre.

~ the Associated Press.
HARTFORD. Conn, April 25.-
Francis B. Sayre, Assistant Secretary
Of State, in defending the Govern
ment's trade agreement program to-
day, warned that "uneconomic trade
barriers forge the thunderbolts of
war"
In an address prepa&ed for delivery
at . meeting Of the Manufacturers
Association of Conn .cticut, Mr.. Sayre
asked:
N trade barriers grow to impass-
able heights and ordinary processes
Of trade break down. how can nations
secure the foodstuffs and raw ma
terials necessary for their economic
life and for the lives of their people?
How can national populations sell their
surplus products and thereby gain the
wherewithal to live?- Men win fight
before they starve"
Mr.. SAyre said predictions of disas-
ter for New Englands manufacturers
from the Czech trade agreement had
proved unfounded.
