Cut off from all outside supplies,
the United States would be more
nearly self-sustaining than any
country in the world today. Nor
mally it will probably never be COM
pletely independent of imports, for
it lacks or has insufficient supplies
of coffee, tea, cocoa, rubber, sugar,
jute, raw silk, flax, tin, nickel, man.
ganese, chromite, antimony, tung-
stem, wood pulp, wool, and tropical
fruits. However, our country has
the basic necessities in foodstuffs,
fuel and the more important metals,
and in time, of crisis the population
could adjust its standards of living
without undue hardship.
In Tightening his belt to meet an
extended emergency, Uncle Sam
would, of necessity, conserve sup
plies of certain products or find sub
stitutes for them. In ordinary years,
this country consumes more than
fifty per cent of the rubber produc-
ed in the world. Were this supply
cut off, reclaimed rubber, already
extensively used, would become
more important and some of the
substitutes for rubber still in the
experimental stage would undoubt-
eddy be rapidly developed on a
commercial scale. aaegs..

Could The United States
Exist Without Imports?
BY HARRIET v. HEAD
tStaR Writer, Waterbury Democrats Service Bureau

The tin can might become a
rarer object in the household If
foreign sources of that metal were
unavailable. The United States has
no commercial deposits of tin ore
although it takes the giant share of
world production. Temporarily scrap
tin could be utilized, but the supply
is easily exhausted and it is likely
that other metals, or paper and
glass, would be substituted in the
manufacture of containers.
The development of rayon has
changed the outlook as far as silk
imports are concerned. Other syn
thetic products or substitutes have
been developed for nitrates, iodine,
jute, and shellac. If some unforeseen
disaster were to cut off imports of
woodpulp and newSprint from Can
ada, the processes for developing
southern pine pulp paper would
probably be speeded.
A serious shortage Of metals used
in steel alloys would result If the
United States were dependent upon
her own deposits of manganese,
chromium, tungsten, vandaium, an
timony. and nickel. Substitutes
would have to be found and un-
doubtedly some industries would
face difficult situations in maintain
ing the standard of their products.
Canada is the chief source of nickel
and it Is very unlikely that supplies
from that country would ever be
cut of, considering the present and
past relationship of the two coun-
tries.
While foreign trade is being car
ried on normally, there is neither
necessity nor cause for measures
that would be undertaken in time
of emergency: Should such emer-
gency occur, the United States has
the fundamental resources to wealth.

all the fathers-to-be are ready to
fight any other father on sight.
The nest is dainty affair, floating
either on the surface or preferably
under the cover of a leaf. The
bubbles are tiny mucous s-covered air
globes. 1t seems impossible that the
small fish could blow so many.
Family Activities.
The females are hardly appreci-
ated except for their ability to lay
the eggs the male is so furiously
guarding. AS soon as the eggs are
dropped. the male rushes to them
and covers them with milt and then
he takes them in his mouth and
swims swiftly toward the nest, fas-
tening to the egg tiny air bubble
to keep it afloat.
If the bubble-nest is in close
quarters and only a few of these
fish are in it, you must watch care
fully as soon as all of the eggs have
been laid and remove the female.
She is not above feasting upon the
eggs. Further, her spouse is ap-
parently aware of this fact and he
may commit murder if he has any
slight notion his precious babies-to-
be are in danger. This sad state of
affairs does not exist to so great an
extent when there is ample room
for the eager husband to chase his
mate away. Do not take this to be
the normal state for all gouramis.

Natures Children
Croaking Gourami
(CtenOps Vittatus)

1t has been noted that some Of the
couples are really happy when they
are sharing all the family RESPONSE
bilities. At this time the parents
have been seen working together
with harmony and with apparent
Joy over their task.
Guarded by Father.
The eggs must have a high tenn
perature Of 80 to 80 degrees and
they will hatch in 20 to 48 hours.
The young are guarded by the father
for one or two days until they are
capable of taking care of themselves.
Then, believe it or not, the jealous
father, who would even take the life
of his mate If she acted in the least
bit suspicious. now turns cannibalis-
tic If there happens to be small
quarters and no room to go about
for long swims. This is another
thing that you must be ever watch
full Of. unless you are fortunate
enough to have very large place in
which to breed them.
When the youngsters are capable
swimmers they go in schools. All
members of the family are carniv-
orous and their native home Is to
be found In fresh and brackish
waters in India. They soon learn
to thrive on prepared fish foods
which contain a large percentage
of animal matter.

Bruin TwizzIers
BY PROF. ]. d. FLINT.

Here's a little fun problem which
you may enjoy here and then carry
on to any of your friends or associ-
ates who might enjoy it. Place 10
coins in a pyramid or triangle shape
with four coins forming the base,
three on top of them, two on top of
the three and the tenth coin form
ing the apex. Now, the problem is
to shift the facing of the triangle
so that the apex points in the op-
posite direction. In other words, if
you first arrange the triangle so that
the point is at the top as you look
at it, and the base is at the bottom,
rearrange 1T I that the point is at
the bottom AID the base is at the
top. This rearranging must be
done by moving only three coins.
Can you do 1t?

Gouramis are bubble-nest builders.
They are favorite fish from tropical
waters for home aquariums because
they are so attractive. However,
they are a quarrelsome group and
should be kept to themselves and
not introduced to other species.
There should be large numbers of
them together. This seems to tend
to make them less combative.
