warned that the prospect of major
warfare ''is more terrible now than
at any previous period in the worlds
history" but declared:
1T is justifiable only to preserve
the honor of your country or to
defend it against either direct or
indirect attack.
IF there is attempted invasion or
other acts of positive aggression
against the United States, you off,
GERS of the future will have to step
out with the troops and repel the
assault.
That is not a likely thing to
happen. Nevertheless, we know that
war comes even to the most peace
loving countries"
Turning to this country's position
on the rearmament question, Mr.
Farley said
Il think it is generally agreed
that the mostly nearly certain way
of guarding against either encroach-
ment or attack is by presenting to
the world military front SO power
full that no fierce and greedy nation
or aggregation of nations will dare
the final step.
That is the meaning of our recent
measures to create a navy capable
of dealing with any force that any,
body thinks of sending against us,
and of building the nucleus of an
army that can be expanded to
whatever is requisite for our COM
plete defense"

BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, May 15.-The Soviet
Russian government newspaper IL
vestia gave emphatic approval today
to the agreement of mutual assist
ance which Britain concluded Fri
day with Turkey.
This was interpreted in diplo-
matte quarters as indicating Moscow
is willing to join the British French
front provided her adherence is on
the basis of mutual assistance and
also that Moscow soon will be able
to announce an agreement with
Turkey.

said of the British-Turkish agree
ment.
Thanks to her strategically i'm
portant position as owner of the
Straits Dardanelles and Bosphorus) :,
Turkey has been for a long time
the object of rapacious desires of
aggressor states and has recently
felt, with particular emphasis, the
danger of her position.
This circumstance has ended in
realization of desirable result to
the British-Turkish negotiations"
After emphasizing the long stand
ing friendship between Turkey and
the Soviet Union, Izvestia went on
to say that conversations between
Turkey and Russia at Ankara have
demonstrated the community of
views of both countries with regard
to the present international situa-
ton"

that the nations pride has been
wounded by the refusal of the
United States to accept Argentine
beef. They can understand how the
United States produces enough beef
for her own needs, but think it un-
fair to exclude fine product on the
grounds of quality.
The two countries are alike In
many ways-the melting pots" of
the New World. The Argentine may
be of English, Irish, German, Italian,
Scandinavian or Swiss descent, but
he's as much an Argentine as the
Spanish pioneer-from his view
point, anyhow.
I met one the other night whose
name was even more indicative of
his ancestry than Jeremiah Alo-
ysius Patrick OLeary." He couldn't

The Riqht-Kind Toys
BY Fred Neher

When children have passed the
infant stage, they prefer the make
something toy to the look-at type.
Blocks that can be converted into
skyscrapers, bridges and houses will
keep Tommy happily occupied from
babyhood until he, is well along in
school. Modern blocks, like rattles,
rubber dolls and all toys that chill
drcn like to put in their mouths are
finished to withstand soap and water
washing and they should have it in
order to protect the health of the
children who use them. As they
build houses, bathe dolls, sweep
floors and work the signals for their
toy railroads, they are reasoning,
planning and laying sound founda-
tionS for future careers.

Bedtime Stories

The farmer who owned the big
barn where the rats had lived was
puzzled. After a few days he be-
came sure that there wasn't a rat
left In the barn. He knew that they
had all moved to the farmhouse.
They had been bad enough when
they lived in the big barn, but they
were ever 20 much worse living in

not move like this without cause.
This meant that they must have
been driven out of the big barn,
and who or what could have driven
them out was more than the farmer
could guess. For years he had tried
to get rid of the rats there and
hadn't been able to. Now suddenly
they had deserted the big barn and
taken possession OF his house.

learned all about traps, and the
gray, old leader OF them had learned
to be suspicious Of food left where
1t was easy to get. He warned the
other rats not to touch this food.
The farmer blocked up the holes In
the pantry walls, but as fast as he
blocked them up the rats gnawed
new ones.
