This huge four-engined bomber,
together with its newer COM
panion, a bombing ship of similar
design but twice as large as the
original fortress" is regarded by
the Army's air experts as the
greatest bombing and fighting
ship ever developed.
1t was in one of these bombers
that Col. Robert Odds set a new

record for military planes Satur-
day, flying the 1900 miles from
the Pacific to Atlantic in a purely

Catholic Plan Hailed
As Model for War
On Subversiveness
United Action Of All
Foiths Suggested Via
Citizenship Education

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 26. The
Catholic hierarchy's newly-an-
nounced program to educate 3,000,-
600 parochial students in "enlight-
ened American citizenship" was
suggested today by one Of the prel-
ates as an example by which other
religions might unite "in concrete
action against a common enemy,
subversiveness."
The Most Rev. John T. McNich-
olas, Archbishop of Cincinnati, de-
clared in an interview that world
wide protest against prosecutions of
Jew and Gentle, Protestant and
Catholic" may serve as indication
that essential differences between
religious faiths are 'of little mo-
ment in a common cause"
In Effect Next School Year.
Predicting the new program will
be put in operation in Catholic
schools and universities when the
next school year opens. Archbishop
McNicholas termed 1t Ito my knowl-
edge the first definite step in cam
paign which all Americans must
undertake against Communism,
Fascism and Bolshevism."
Archbishop McNicholas said the
plan encompassed new textbooks
being written now," new courses of
study, and increased personnel in
Catholic educational institutions.
Scores Hitler Policies.
The Sprelate lashed at policies of
'Mad-man Hitler" He observed
"there is little essential difference
between his brand of Fascism and
the bolshevism of Stain"
I'VE may make scant allowance in
behalf Of Mussolini," the archbishop
added. "He at least acknowledges
belief in Supreme Being"
Anti-social doctrines, while 'for-
ever existent" achieved new empha-
sis in postwar years "in which the
world suffered a moral breakdown"
Archbishop McNicholas observed.
Sees Colleges as Offenders.
Universities and colleges, 'tradi-
tional seats of learning" have been
offenders in the dissemination of
''istic" doctrines, he declared, ad-
ding that some of the exchange
professors" brought to this country
may have helped to this end.
"We used to say" the prelate rem
inisced, that it took 80 to 40 years
for anything from the universities
to reach the common people. 1t
doesn't take that long today.
'"The scene is one in which we
are genuinely alarmed, and we see
In our new educational program
one means of bringing a new and
vital force to bear against those
things that threaten our traditions"

Glonfing Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

NEA Service Stan Writer
 Rule No. for keeping fairly cool and as attractive looking as possible during hot summer months is: Don't discuss the weather.
 Try to remember that the cool- CT you look, the cooler you'll feel and promise yourself that you just won't go around grcaning about the heat, running your hands through your hair, flaming your throat with your blouse, and 50 on. A generous dose of poise is one of the best antidotes for torrid weather doldrums.
 Then, too, it's a good idea to plan your summer wardrobe with an eye to keeping cool. One needs dark clothes for town, of course, but these can be ever so sheer. Navy or black sheer silk, featherweight prints with dark backgrounds, dark voiles and other sheer cottons are ideal materials. Tn the suburbs and in the country. wear simply cut, well designed washables. Very fine cotton lingerie is something else to consider.
 Whether you are suntanned or not, try to achieve scrubbed look. Give up mascara and eye-shadow- during daytime hours, at least. Thoroughly clean your face and put on fresh makeup several times a day. Take warm, soapy bath at night and as many showers as you can manage during the daytime. Keep white collars and cuffs. white shoes, gloves and so on, meticulous- ly clean.
 Don't let dread of the discom- fort of sitting under the dryer keep you from making regular appointments with the hairdress- CT. One needs shampoo even oftener during summer weather. However, to cut down the length of time you have to spend under the dryer, have the operator set your hair with water instead of heavy, sticky wave-set lotion. Or with one of the perfumed hair To- tions. Of the consistency of water, these stimulate the scalp and light ly perfume the hair.

 Paris - (UP)-An evening gown made entirely of fresh flowers!
 No, it's not the dream of a delirious florist, but an actual fashion fact witnessed by sev- eral hundred persons who att tended fancy dress ball at Cannes. The Begun Aga Khan, dark eyed Indian beauty and one of Paris's most beautifully dressed women, was the wearer of the dress made of fresh roses.
 The gown was created by Heim's for the Begun and it was inspired from the sari, the loosely draped Indian robe. The sari was covered with vari-shad- ed red roses which gave the effect of rose moire when seen a few feet away. Dark red roses added dra- matic contrast to the edging of the sari. The roses were sewn on at the last minute, having first been spe- cially treated so that they would keep their freshness throughout the evening.
 Speaking of flowers, there are big flowers which are knit in spun glass around the bottom of one of Amy Blatts white knit evening dresses The spun-glass gives the effect of silver embroidery. It is echoed in the thick chain which joins the six skirt panels. And it is used again for a chain belt made of big spun glass links.
 There is something about links and the ensuing chains which
