U.N.S.) What makes it snow in
Boston in the winter time?
This was answered today at the
American Meteorological Society,
in session here.
When the damp air from the
tropics is swept toward the crest
OF Mount Washington, 5000 feet
high, snow falls in Boston town.
When such air of the tropics is
not pushed toward Mount Wash
mgton'S crest, and the frigid blasts
from the polar wastes are allowed
to blow unhindered, it does not
snow in Boston town.

Knickerbocker Observes
Effect on Spain

HENDAYE, Franco-Spanish
Frontier, April % Q.N.S0 The
costlieSt civil war in the history oil
the world is drawing to its close
just across the border in Spain,
and Adolf Hitler, Fuehrer of the
Greater Reich, already has won it.
The graves of one million Span
iards today present to a mournful
world new record for internecine
slaughter within a period Of 81
months. But no observers can
predict correctly when the useless
killing will cease, although it is
now certain that a victory for
Generalissimo Francisco Franco
eventually will be proclaimed.
HITLER WINNER
The dying embers of this mighty
conflagration which has Snuffed
out twice as many lives as the
American civil war within half the
length of time could be extin-
guished within a fortnight. But
expert observers believe it may 20
on for two months or a maximum
of six.
Hitler is the real winner Of this
war, because:
First, without Hitler's threat
to France and England Musso-
lini could not have sent to
Franco the troops which have
turned the tide Of battle in his
favor.
AIDED BY THREATS
Second, without Hitler's
threat both the Soviet Union
and France would have sent the
government of Spain sufficient
help to win.
Third, Hitler'S appalling swift
conquest of Austria finally led
England and France to abandon
all pretense Of neutrality in the
Spanish war and drove them
precipitously into negotiations
with Italy by which they &C.
knowledge presence of Italian
troops in Spain and by implica-
ton consent to their remaining
until Francois conquest is COM
plete.
DESERTED AND STARVING
So now all the foreign friends
of government Spain have de-
serted them. Their territory is
cut in two parts. They are Starv-
ing, bereft of munitions, hope
leSsIy outnumbered in the air,
blockaded on the sea and over
whelmed by the weight Of ma
terial on land.
Everyone abroad, including
their own Sympathizers, concede
victory to Franco but neither
Barcelona nor Valencia nor
Madrid will yet concede it because
there are from fifty to one hun
dred thousand persons on the
government, side who expect to
lose their lives if they surrender.
SO they prefer to go on fighting.
TOLL 5 PER CENT
The immense death toll means
about per cent of SPANS total
of 100000 population. Or if
one can assume that most of the
dead were male then nearly 10
per cent of all Spanish men have
died.
Half of them at least have met
death behind the lines or against
the wall facing rifles or machine
gun squads of executioners, but
the other half died fighting and
that means that this war has
plucked the flower of Spanish
manhood because the best went
farthest toward the front and fell
first.
Thus Spain, which prided itself
on its wisdom in staying out of the
great World War has suffered a
fate worse than any that befell
any participant in that colossal
butchery.

 Homey women, if such there be, have found a champion in Senator Ellender of Louisiana who told his colleagues the other day that in the Federal civil service promotion often is made upon good looks :" The Senator did not think this as it should be. All fair-mnded Americans will agree with him. Homely women ought to be promoted ahead of pretty women if their work is of superior quality. One way to that this is done is for the homely women to get together and organize pressure group This might be called if a suggestion may be ventured The Homely Women of America, Inc It could hire plan-featured female lobbyist and perhaps get the civil service policies altered The trouble would be to determine the qualifications for membership Women who seem quite plain to home of may have attrac- tiveness for others of us One of the nsolube prob lems of the modern age as of other ages is what he saw in her-or she in him.
 More specifically Senator Ellender charged that he couldn't recall which, "ony red-headed girls not girl is red-headed though not always so easy tell whether she is so by nature by artfice If there is red-headed division bureau in the Navy War Department the country should be informed of that fact. No one has right to keep such state of affairs secret Otherwise visitors to Washington of whom there will be great many this spring may waste their time such relatively uninteresng ob jects as the Washington Monument and the United States Senate.

It's Mean to Laugh-But It's Human
(Philadelphia Recordl


 Firm is the hold of fiction and play acting on the public of time. We weep over our amuse- ments and are inclined to toss off real life with shrug and laugh.
 Consider this scenario. A beautiful and talented girl struggles along at menia jobs She becomes actress finds protector who brings her to America Her only friend dies but she becomes the best known actress, the most gamorous figure of her time.
 She has fame, beauty, wealth. But no friends. Her life is quiet withdrawn Along comes great artist, a of the world. They are friends and he offers to show her the Europe he knows.
 But the world insists on intruding. It hounds the pair and encrcles their Italian villa with snoopers And the woman breaks down. Sobbing that publicity has killed her chance for happiness.
 Put it on the screen and the house would be knee deep in tears But now that it has happened in life, with Greta Garbo and Leopold Stokowski in the lead ing roles, everybody guffaws.
 And it is funny that's the sad part. The spectacle of Garbo and Stokowsk miserable in their villa, is of those revenges of Fate that allow men to mock their fortunate brethren. All the debs who have palptated at the sight of Stokowsks profile, all the clerks farmhands and professors who have yearned over Garbo's picture find armor in the meanness that lets us chuckle at the wrecked romance in the Villa Cimbrone.

WHERE THE SHOE PINCHES IN THE
 SALMON DISPUTE

In pointing out today with some optimism that
 settlement is probable in the dispute between the canned salmon industry and its employees, Joseph Cheney Federal Conciiiaor in the controversy raging in Seattle makes the point which actually is daily making trouble loom seriously on the Alaska horizon.
 This wouldn't be a serious labor dispute he says, If it were not for the time element which makes it extremely serious Possibly the worst phase of the whole situation is the fact that Alaska derives much of it's revenue from the tax on salmon. If none is packed it means no revenue"
 The fact is that aside from the curtailed or eliminated fish to the Territory, the time is now such that large sums of money already have been lost to industry in Alaska The lumber industry which transportation companies supply houses all are losing
 regularly anticipated part of their revenue due to the holdup of the salmon industry And equally serious so the persons employed in those industries are losing their means of livelihood. fairly sound business probably stand the curail- ment and loss of busness the Territory probably can struggle along if its is severely curailed but the average person who works for wages faces pretty dark picture when his source of income is cut off
 That at the present time is the most serious aspect to the dispute in Seattle. Thousands of men are losing their means of making living for themselves and their families Daily the situation becomes more acute for those people ultimately it will become acute for all persons and businesses in the Territory unless an agreement is reached quickly.

 Fear may affect the mind which under this sway admits many forms of destructive thought. The wise will look on the bright side of things and will abstain from criticism.
 Preachers and clergymen may voice their distress over what ap- pears to be moral decline among young and old, but they should de- vote attention to constructive counsel.
 This is a fortunate day for re- flection and contemplation The mental vision should be keen and clear. It is time to plan.
 In the evening women are sub ject to benefic planetary influences which should make their counsel acceptable in the home or in pub lie meetings Many now will preach preparedness as well as peace.
 The British government will se- cure large accumulations of money, it is prophesied, and will retain power as a leader of nations.
 Greece is under malefic influ- ences which may cause trouble with another country. There may be an earthquake of grave extent.
