what is mustache. It's sort of half way between
Hitler and Buffalo Bill number. I went to a
party recently where all the men came adorned
with a Grover Whalen mustache. In fact,
I've been told that Tom Dewey tried to copy
Growers mustache, but couldn't quite make
the grade Gn more ways than one)
Well, boys, you can have your mustaches-
little, vanilla chocolate, or pink-but I don't
think I'll ever try to grow up because, after ALL I'll
take Santa Claus for NINE Thanks, Mr. Eden, for
coming to visit us and giving me this brilliant
thought; but when you go home and take your
mustache with you hope the fad will go also.

MOST sought-after congress
AVA sional guest on the Florida
junket was Senator Bennett
Champ Clark, the Democratic
dark-horSe hope. At train stops
and luncheons the local lights
wanted him pointed out. Clark
said little or nothing Rob-
ert Watts, American delegate to
the Interna tional Labor Confer
ence, is paying his own per diem
expenses for about 10 days so
he will not have to travel to the
January 80 Geneva meeting on
German or Italian ships. The
rule require S him to take the
last boat and leave on the
earliest to get his full per diem
allowances -. Senate rules
were waived to let new "Ham'n'
Egg Senator Downey pose for
news photographers sitting at
his chamber desk, but no ham
was served and there was no
egg on his vest Current
Washington crypticism is: II

customary answer is: "I won

half OF his second term"

of a major crop curtailment pro-
gram at the special polls. Po-
tato farmers in the past have
rejected quotas, but their crop
is not in the major list, politi-
cally or economically. A corn
referendum was avoided last
fall. Wheat is yet to come.
Only explanation available
from headquarters is the OBJ
vious one that the farmers just
do not like compulsion, at least
not enough to get it by a two
thirds vote. Complicated con-
trolls are not fully understood
by everyone except those work
ing them. Farmers, counties,
States suspect there is politics
IN administration (not neces-
sarily at the top here) and allo-
cations are unfair.
Farm thinkers are trying to
console themselves with the
thought that this may make
the next Congress more agree
able to stronger control next
session, but none of the Congress
men are saying that.

EDEN'S visit is causing an cpl
~ demic of spots before the
eyes of international seers here.
They can see something is up,
but they cannot tell what. Those
who have the advantage of some
inside knowledge are turning
many considerations over in
their minds. including these:
F. D. R. is personally not very
close to Chamberlain. They
have been officially cooperative
but not personally friendly.
Eden comes much nearer repre-
senting the Presidents personal
view about dictators.
This outlook is shared pri-
vately by many State Depart
ment officials, despite all the
foolishness which has been
spread about their involvement
in the Cliveden set.
Furthermore, it is matter of
official proclamation that Hit
1er's opinion runs strongly the
opposite way. He has already
cast several broad international
hints recommending that Cham
berlain shut Eden and Churchill
up. Diplomatic channels have
been wondering what Hitler will
do when and if the Eden or
Churchill crowd gets British
control.

Those Crop Quotas

DEFEAT Of the flue.cured crop

culturists here. It was wholly I'm
expected. Conditions were ex-
ceptionally favorable. Pric es
were lower than last year when
the farmers approved restric-
ton, and supplies are now the
highest on record.

the former as being less unpleasant. Mr.. Eden
had to have "mustachio" boy show him around

No Voluntary RewelcOn'e

CHAMBERLAIN cannot stave
" off an election much longer;
probably not more than a year.
The post-Munich trend of Brit
ish opinion suggests there would
be considerable doubt about the
outcome Of an election any time
soon.
But current suggestions that
Chamberlain may take Eden
into the cabinet are highly
doubted. After the stand Hitler
has made. such action would re-
quire complete change of Brit
ish policy, and Chamberlain has
given no pl'blic indication of
change since Munich. A change
of policy by election is not in
conceivable, but a voluntary
change by Chamberlain rewel-
coming Eden into his official
family stretches further than
any informed Imagination here
will go.
