Peace Costs Something
Cincinnati Fnnuirerl


 Those who imagine, along with the NaZi press that our neutrality law pushed through by munitions makers, who see the law a means of expanding profits should watch carefully the operation of the measure Instead of being way to enlarge wartime profits. it is actually curb foreign trade. The American people have chosen to make sacrifices in order to remain at peace. The sacrifices will cost something.
 The biggest loser doubtless will be the American merchant marine Shipping companies which have been engaged in the North Atlantic trade now find all their business shattered. They cannot send single ship out it's regular route. Even though some trade with the begerentS develops, American ship ping lines will not benefit They may be able to recoup in degree by shifting their operations to other regions
 Exporters of many nonessentlal commodities will find their business hampered by the cash and carry plan Banks will discover that their work of financing exports intricate but less profitable the new basis Insurance companies lose business when the export trade goes in foreign bottoms
 Taken all in all, the country stands to lose matef- ally by the withdrawal of it's ships from routes to most important overseas markets This is the price have determined to pay in order to escape involvement in It is ridiculous irony that critics at home and abroad should charge the new law represents thirst for war profits.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER g
 This is a mixed day in planetary government. There is a sign indicat- ing discontent among the workers of the world. An epidemic, center ing around severe throat complica tions, is forecast. This sway presages earthquakes and numerous acci- dents, especially on the Pacific coast
 Heart and Home: Tn the morning relations between housewives and employees will be strained Cooks may be extravagant and chauffeurs reckless. The afternoon and eve ming should be favorable for social affairs. This is a happy wedding day, although wealth probably will not contribute to the joy of those married on this date
 Business Affairs. This should be a fortunate date for Americans. It is ! good time for planning and should increase Christmas buying md holiday generosity.
 National Issues: Public sentiment will favor extreme preparedness and be less likely to find fault with for eign policies. Events of great mo- nent will unify opinion regarding future moves on the diplomatic chess board. American statesmen nay show the effects of overwork md grave responsibilities, and one )f prominence will reach the end of his career.
 International Affairs: Canada will nave a strong commercial and poli- ical influence upon the United States. The famous Dominion states man, Mackenzie King, is subject to aspects that promise wise policies or the people whom he serves. He will accomplish much in the way of safeguarding Canada's commercial citations.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have he augury of a year of good luck Women should be careful with love etters. Men will profit through in leritances
 Children born on this day prob ply will be quick-witted, talented md self-reliant. Many of these sub ,ects of Sagittarius are cautious and ecretive.

ton of Seaplanes difficult and
usually dangerous. We are con-
structing a landing field for small
airplanes to serve as an inter-
mediate station between the
outer bases at Puerto Rico and
st. Thomas and the mainland, to
which we now turn our atten-
ton.
'At Key West, on Florida's
tip, is a naval station now closed
but which is to be rehabilitated
for instant use when needed, as a
base for submarines particularly.
Florida is witnessing a great deal
of onshore naval activity. The
aviation training station at Pen
sacola will eventually be ex-
banded to increase its capacity by
half, and we propose sometime to
duplicate that. establishment on
the opposite side of the gulf at
Corpus Christi, Texas.
Meanwhile we are going
ahead to build at Jacksonville,
Florida, naval aviation base
even stronger than the one in
Puerto Rico. 1t will be the home
of two carrier groups and three
patrol squadrons, yet roomy
enough to accommodate twice as
many ships and airplanes in an
emergency. Two utility squad
rons of naval aircraft will also
be based at Jacksonville, besides
the necessary shops for overhaul
and repair, and other buildings.
Jumping now to the Pacific
side of our defense problem, we
find that while Nature was not
so kind as to provide screen OF
islands for our vulnerable spots,
she did give us the protection of
the widest stretch of waters on
the globe. Coco Solo, in the
Canal Zone, is the base for ap-
proximately 100 naval airplanes
which are computed as an in
tegral part of the fleet defend
ing this vital artery. AT Balboa,
on the Pacific side of the Isthmus,
is a potential submarine base;

naval station there is principally

Local sidelights on the most

Lights slicing through the night

the only glamor girl they were
really interested in was the Lady

torch-but doesn't Groom about

Days when, practically with
out precedent, it was actually a
tough job to get anybody to talk
about motion pictures-because
everybody wanted to talk about
headlines.
Days when the war-talk became
so habitual that the associate pro-
ducers set ultimatums instead of
starting dates; when story con-
ferences were negotiations" !;
when plain inter-office menlos
became diplomatic notes.; when
Carlo could have talked-right
out load-and found few takers
for her long hidden pearls of wis

A day when lisa Miranda, who

Walking around behind the west

from the coffee and sandwich
girl you find on every set. She
is an aspiring writer, has pub
lished two stories in movie maya
zines, but no more in two years.
She is a wide-eyed little girl,
who is still in a wondering mood
after seeing the inside of Holly
wood and we can't blame her.
We step into Stage Three and
see the first days shooting of
the DR.. Christian series. which
was successful in story form and
over the radio. Jean Hersholt,
who attained greatest fame as
DR.. Dafoe in Dionne Quintuplet
pictures is there quietly smoking
a pipe and reading his script out
side the set. He is as ordinary
as any man, but possessed OF
great poise. He speaks his lines
slowly and his actions are very
deliberate and effective. Support
ing him are two young stars, one
resembling Rochelle Hudson and
the other John Boles. They are
very earnest, she very beautiful
and slim and he handsome and
well built. They have "a little
trouble with their acting, often
missing lines and emphasis on
certain words. Every so often

dressing table where a makeup
