DEAR OLD POP
BY HE

VI course you KNOW my pop,
My dear old faithful pop,
The friend of everybody, every
wherei
Sometimes little sour.
Then again, somewhat sweet;
A combination, friends,
You'll find 1t hard to beat!
My POP, I'd like to have you know
Is full of pep
Just brimful of life;
Ever bubbling, effervescing,
Yet never, never, causes strife!
Mixes well at every turn of
Lies eventful pages,
Furnishing naught but true de-
light
Throughout all the ages.
For those who like to sit up late,
More than half the night,
Be sure to have my POP along.
To keep the party bright.
On picnic, or lark,
In daytime or when it's dark,
Just let POP in then look for din
When dear old POP starts mixing
in
My ma may be an angel,
My best girl-a flop;
For me, you'll find my every
want
In dear old, age-old-SODA POP.

HONEY WEEK HELPS TO
INFORM PUBLIC

Editor, The Times: As Ma
tional Honey week draws to a
close, I wish To take this oppor-
tunity. in behalf of the Migra-
tory Beekeepers' club of Tacoma,
to thank The Times for the
splendid publicity and news COM
ment on the bee and honey ex-
hibit sponsored by the club in
observance of Honey week. Con-
siderable attention has been
drawn to, and interest aroused
in, the cause of the honey pro-
Queer. through the combination
of exhibit and publicity.
For the benefit of those who
may be interested in learning
more about bees, information
may be secured by writing to
the secretary manager. or by
calling the WPA education Of
fices and asking for the sched-
ule of free classes in bee culture.

door basis, and under some kind
of an international mandate.
Until that solution develops, we
should let these nations fight
together alone as they proceed
toward the chasm of destruc-
ton"
Let us not forget that one of
the most regrettable features of
the World War chapter Of our
history was the lack of toler-
ance for other citizens opinions.
Those of us having no relatives
in either London or Berlin should
remember that some of those
who do have relatives in those
cities (for example) may I'M
consciously be more interested
IN the safety of the people of
one or the other of those cities
than the people of New York
City. 1t will probably be sew
eral generations before all of the
American people can give their
undivided attention to the best
interests of our own country and
our own institutions.

happens that sentiment in those
delegations was growing chilly
toward repeal. Henry Wallace

the apparent attempt of high
administration officials - the

people fun knowledge Of capture
of American ships by German

AGAINST REPEAL OF
ARMS EMBARGO

Editor, The Times: The de-
bate on the embargo being over,
1t is now up to the people to
render a clean-cut decision that
can be heard by our congress-
men in Washington where the
final vote is to be taken. A
number of us sent a joint air
mail letter TO our six congress-
men against embargo repeal and
in favor of all of the other fea-
lures Of the bill calculated TO re-
duce the risk Of our involvement
in the European mess. With
the letter we sent a compilation
Of arguments which included
the following:
The issue is not democracy
VS.. autocracy-and even If it
were we should stand against
involvement, or any step toward
involvement because war Will
cause the collapse Of democracy
in the United States. Modern
warfare with its staggering
wastage is the greatest enemy
of democracy. Recent history
establishes that.
The issue in the present con-
fliet is trade-commercial ad-
vantage. The situation is the
same as il was in 1914. Great
Britain and France have vast
colonial possessions in Asia and
Africa peopled by hundreds Of
millions Of subject races. and
they want TO continue TO exploit
these continents and the people
inhabiung them. Germany and
Italy and Japan, world powers
with dense populations, want a
part. or all, OF these colonial
possessions.
The just and permanent solu-
ton Of the trouble. in our opin-
ion. viii never take place until
these areas are opened up for
trade and exploitation to all
nations on an equitable. open
