caused bitterness when the govern ment was following an appeasement policy toward Germany.
 Hope of Agreement
 Now, 1t was pointed out. all hope of an agreement with Hitler has gone. The implication was that the documents were released this week to show the nature of the Nazi re- gime, to say nothing of stirring up resentment among the British peo- pie in carrying on the war.
 About the same thing was hap pening in Germany, where the Nazi radio and newspapers told the German people that there was chaos in Great Britain and France because the Allied blockade of the Reich had backfired.
 The Nazis told their people that the German U-boat campaign had disrupted British economy and that the English were being threatened with the economic destruction that their government had planned for the Reich.
 Submarine Activity
 In that connection, there had been intense submarine activity in the last few days, three British ships being sunk by "enemy action" and the crew of the Swedish steamer Bardaland telling how five ships in a British convoy from Gibraltar had been sunk by U-boats a week ago. The British steamer Cairn- mona also was sunk by mysteri- ous explosion.
 On the western front, there was heavy artillery fire by both the German and Allied forces. Towns in the rear of the Maginot and Siegfried Lines were reported af- fected by the big guns, which ap- parently were attempting to break in communication lines.

 The substantial increase in freight carloadings which occurred in Aug ust as well as in September would be particularly encouraging if this in- crease represented a moving out of finished goods into consuming mar kets. Available. commodity statis- tics, however, indicate that this movement has largely been of raw material nature moving into New England.

Nurnberg Invention of
Wire Drawing CHALLENGED

There is today l6S, ,573 900 miles of te]e-
phone wire in the world, in addition tn
other millions of miles of wire for in
dustrial uses, in electrical equipment and
transmission and for telepraphinp
though this is also done simultaneouslv
over some telephone lines
"Nurnberg, the commercial center of
bavaria. was long credited with having
invented Wire-drawing in the 14th GEN.
Jury says the National Geographic So
clety This has been questioned. In
the archepiscopal library of the Cathe-
oral OF st. Martin, Lucca, Italy, is re-
ported 9Th century manuscript which
mentions wire-drawing as then in prac-
tice.
Wire is made today by drawing a rod
OF ductile metal, cold, through a series
OF fabricated steel dies containing tapered
holes steadily reduced in size until the
required flneness is attained. Previously
wire was hammered out, a process fam
tastically inadequate to present demands
for quantity and uniformity. Especially
is this true in electrical equipment: mod
ern radio sets contain wire finer than
human hair, and wire has been drawn
1-3O,OOOth of an inch fine"

Covering Supreme Court
Decisions Is an Art

Covering Supreme Court stories is al
most an art in itself. The decisions
sometimes come down in handfuls, some
of them involving lengthy opinions.
There is no time for leisurely reading.
Court convenes at noon and afternoon
papers have headlines" about every 10
minutes after that. They want the
court news.
1t means that the reporter must know,
almost by instinct, where a particular
judge will place the important points in
written opinion.
Chief Justice Hughes is dream of a
judge in that respect. He always states
the points of the decision at the end of
the opinion. The reporter can go right
there and get the meat for quick, COM
prehensive story.
Reporters list Judge Blacks opinions
as easiest to handle Of any on the court.
They are clear and unincumbered with
the legal grammar that jurists often love.

Boil Weevil Outclassed
By BOllwOrm Pest

The pink bollworm. described by United
States cotton producers as a worse pes:
than the boil weevil is a globe -trotting
insect, points out the National Geo.
graphic Society.
Recognized as a cotton enemy in the
East nearly 100 years ago. its original
home is believed to be India and possibly
Southern Asia in general. Around the
beginning of the Goth century, 1t was
brought to Egypt from India in large
seed-cotton imports, and has since spread
widely.
Its present known range includes
much Of Africa, Siam, the Straits Set
Elements, China, Korea, the Philippines.
Hawaii, the West Indies and Australia
Brazil and Mexico are recent fields for
the worms -depredations. In the United
States, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico
play unwilling hosts to the insect. with
Florida's wild cotton lately added to its
victims.

He Likes His Senate Job, But
Senator Vandenbere Eeng the White House, Will Go Where Duty Calls
BY Marquis

term. And If Vandenberg wasn't think
ing Of the presidential nomination some-
one was thinking of it for him. for the
timing was perfect. Not long before this
the Michigan Republicans in Congress
had come out with demand that he be
a candidate
The Senator knows that social rep
utation is no advantage with the folks
back home. At the garden party for
the King and Queen last week he was
not one of those punctilious Senators
who put on formal dress. Instead YAM
denberg appeared in light colored
palm beach suit. When they see this
in the neWsreels, the Senator's con-
stituents can say, not without trace of
for any King or Queen.
He is inclined to be perhaps overly
pessimistic about the possibility of the
Republican convention turning toward
him. For one thing, he points out. he is
on record as result of all those Senate
roll calls on every important issue of the
day. There are other candidates, and
particularly Thomas E. Dewey, who have
never made any public expression of their
views on controversial questions. And,
as seasoned politicians know, it is very
easy to ALLEVIATE this group and that
group from candidate who has set
down his views as definitely as Vanden-
berg has.
Ch2noo of H., IT,.
The 1896 convention was an unhappy
experience for the Michigan Senator.
Just as during the past year, he tried
very hard to give the impression that he
would not take the nomination under
any circumstances, an attitude which
was understandable since he must have
realized that any Republicans chances
would be slim. But then at Cleveland
he apparently underwent a change of
heart and indicated to those close to
him that he would not be unwilling. 1t
was. OF course, too late and finally
Vandenberg was asked if he would care
to be Vice President on the Landon
ticket, dubious compliment.
Above all, Vandenberg seeks to follow
realistic course. He is highly suspicious
OF the administrations adventurous
foreign policy, for example, but he is
aware, too of the great difficulties in the
way OF maintaining an isolationist stand
IN a world so closely knit as the present
one. Il am not an isolationist," he ex-
plains so much as am an insulationist,
That is believe, we should keep clear
OF Europes affairs in so far as that is
physically possible. But you can't have
the impossible"
Next June will tell the tale. Vanden-
oerg has announced that he will run for
reelection to the Senate But if he
should receive the Republican nominal
ton for President before the final date
OF filing for the senatorial race, then he
could easily seem to yield to the con-
ventlons will and aim for the White
House instead Of the Senate chamber

Friday.
The pictures. enlarged from sur
prisingly good snapshots taken by
Mason. portray various elimpses
Of such exotic places as the
Celebes. Borneo, Hong Kong,
Shanghai. Japan, China and the
Philippines.
Masons studies there are about
so of them-depart strikingly from
the conventional. He has managed
to capture something of the unique
atmosphere of the Far East and,
more ~ten than not, with striking
beauty.
The pictures are both landscapes
and studies of individuals caught
by Mason's camera on his journey
which covered $4,000 miles before
completion.
Particularly timely are two shots
taken of Richard Halliburton's
Chinese Junk. Halliburton, best
known perhaps of all the many
travel writers, set out several
weeks ago in the junk. bound for
the Pacific coast. Since then he
has bees reported lost. His radio
