IT'S STILL THE DOCTRINE

The United States has recognized an increasing participation by the other American republics in the protection of the hemisphere. Ger tain critics say we have traded away our independence in applying the Doctrine since technically the U s cannot act without consulting the other American republics.
 Realistic observers say that, pacts or no when foreign governments attempt lodgment within the Am- ericas, the U. s. will interfere
 Sumner Welles, under-secretary of state, added the latest word within the past few days. Renewed U s. armament, he said, is designed to back up Pan-Americanism by blocking foreign aggression in the western hemisphere-the whole of

Size, pockets and common sense makes the news in winter handbags.
 Bags are big this year Deep pouches and English travel bags Clike small overnight cases) are all designed to give plenty of room for makeup kits money and date books.
 No Nonsense
 There's no nonsense in their de- sign or trim Most of them are lib- erally equipped with pockets often closed with slide fasteners. One deep envelope has a closed pocket which extends from the top of the bag, when opened, to it's base and another is neatly partitioned into sections, like filing cabinet.
 A new invisible fastening which closes the bag without catches or locks and holds it open to wide oval when desired, is one of the outstanding innovations. The clos ing is achieved by means of band of flexible Swedish steel
 Soft calf, suede and alligator (which is getting a big play this year) make by far the most of the bags. When it comes to color, Fifth avenue shops say that the smart est women are choosing such sober hues as black or brown to match coats or their fur trims, but wine, plum, red cedar and deep green are also seen about town.
 Handles Are Simple
 Handles, when used, are gener- ally simple in construction and not exceedingly long. Ribbon han dlcs four or five inches wide finish some of the afternoon bags and occasionally loop handle is seen.
 Despite all this concentration on utility, shapes are far from dull, From a New York designer s workroom comes a ''postman's bag "a flap-topped envelope with a long, er-the-Shoulder strap and q huge suede huff bag with a purse in the top.

COIOrs of Planets

The smaller planets, Mercury,
Venus and Mars, are believed to
have a solid surface composed of
rocks very similar to those Of the
Hearth. Mercury is stated by some
observers to have no perceptible
supply Of water. but the two other
planets have water and ice on parts
!. Of their surface. The larger planets,
. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Nep-
atune, are not solid but appear as
balls Of cloud. which may have solid
lor liquid nuclei The rudy color of
Mars to the observer is due to the
red surface of much of that planet,
but there are also dark markings
which show a seasonal variation in
color. The planet Pluto also has an
apparent redness, suggesting a thin
. atmosphere and a surface of low
rejecting power. Venus has a sill
very brilliance, while Mercury is
more inclined to redness; Saturn is
yellowish, Uranus pale green and
Jupiter shows a variety Of colors,
with reddish ones conspicuous.

Only One Type Of Tree
81 Produces Real .Camphol

Camphor is an odd substance.
The several kinds Of camphor
known to science are hydrocarbons,
compounds of hydrogen and carbon,
and are relatives, Of our common
turpentine. However, the canphors
are little different in che! manner
in which the atoms composing their
molecular structuressaregput togeth-
er, reveals an authority in the Bos-
ton Globe. Thus, while tarpentine
is useless for the purpose, cam
phor can be united with cotton, nj
trio acid and sulphuric acid to- make
celluloid, and, by another operation,
modern high explosives--the kind
used to supply the energy to hurl
shells out of the great cannon.
Oddly enough, four kinds of plants
produce camphor. One kind, the
minis, such as monarda and men.
tina, is very common in America.
But. sadly enough, the camphor
they produce is not the right kind
to make explosives. The second
kind Of plants are also common;
certain composites, such as chrys-
anthemum parthenicum and blu
mea. But again, the composites
camphor is the wrong kind, too. The
third is rare tropical family, the

excellent-but it is so rare that the
price it commands is so very high
that it is used for but one purpose
