busy" Mrs. Marchand in a soft
black crepe dress gave Noel a
friendly smile as they sat across
from each other in the large COM
Portable living room in the Lam
caster Hotel suite.
Noel slipped her tea and felt the
warmth of the hot liquid seep
through her veins. They'd talked
OF their unconventional meeting
the day before. Of the amazing co..
incidence of their having the same
name, and Mrs. Marchand had
stressed her sincere delight at see
ing her guest again.
Noel found herself telling this
charming older woman some of
her past, Of her widowed mothers

ward eliminating some of the
problems that confront these
| two basic industries.
4 Best of all, perhaps, is the be-
lief that expansion in manufac-
turing and mining will create an
increased demand for durable
goods and thus spur the long
dormant heavy industries. If that
happens, tremendous amount of
employment will be created, and
all commerce will feel the good
effects. So far, recovery has
been largely confined to consum-
ers' goods industries, due in a
large mesaure to government re-
lief spending; there can be no
real prosperity, as any economist
can tell you, until durable goods
show comparable Improvement.
Thus, the domestic situation is
relatively good. The information
al situation is about as bad as it
can be.
I The United States is very close
to complete severance of diplo-
matte relations with Nazi Ger
many. Senator Key Pittman,
chairman of the potent Foreign
Relations Committee, has an
nounced that he favors cutting
off trade with the Reich, and
many other influential congress-
men agree with, him. Legislation
toward that end will probably be
introduced this session. Our State
Department has taken the strong
est possible stand against Ger
man representations-and has
gone to lengths that are rarely
reached in discussions with a
friendly" power. And in Ger
many, the controlled press con-
| tinues its campaign of almost un-
restrained abuse directed at this
! government and the officials in
| charge.
The belief grows that Germany
| will take steps this year toward
acquiring the rich mineral and
agricultural lands of the Soviet
Ukraine-which, according to al
most all the foreign authorities
| would mean war with Russia and
her allies. Trustworthy polls in
England show the British peoples
distrust of Hitler growing, along
with the sad belief that they will
have to fight him one day.
Our relations with Mexico re.
main unsettled, due to President
Cardenas' appropriations OF
American owned farming and
petroleum properties. And going
farther South still, we find Nazi
and Fascist influences continuing
their steady growth in Pan and
| South America.
| Next European crisis is likely
| to arise out of Mussolini's de-
mands for certain French posses
sions. Hitler backs Italy in this
