Cagey Russia
Cleveland Plain Dealer)

ACl6NeIdIQ FldIl DtdlSl)
 Russia it is now pam, IS viewing with extreme caution the invitations of Britain and France to take a place in the anti-Hitler peace front.
 Reports that Russia and Turkey already ln the anti-Hter ring are quite apparently premature.
 It is the aim of France already bound to Russia by mutual defensive alliance and Britain to make Russia the powerful backstop for the relatively weak Balkan and Baltic nations shvering in the path of potential Naz advance It is desired that Russia shall provide materials and possible military help to Poland and Rumana should the latter be attacked
 The Russian envoy at London, Ivan Maisky, listened to the British proposals but did not say yes Instead he flew back to Moscow to lay them before Maxim Litvinov Russian foreign minister
 Russian caginess is understandable. Last fall at Munich she was snubbed by Britain and France. Chamberain's Tory government would have no deal ings with the reds France seemed embarrassed by her traditional ally.
 Today however with the banner of appeasement badly moth-eaten the situation is very different. Even the Archbishop of Canterbury is on record as eager for Russian help
 But beyond this irritation at last falls attitude is the strong Russian belief that if clash occurred in Poland and Rumania and Russia did come to blows with Germany Britain would be pleased to see Ger many and Russia go at each other like a couple of Kilkenny cats and solve the eastern European question by eliminating each other.
 So it may be that Russia will decide to stay on the fence at least for while. Should Hitler cele- brate his birthday by seizing Danzg and slice of Poland Moscow may be more inclined to act An ulti mate Nazi excursion into the Ukraine would bring Russia down on a too-far extended Nazi flank. But, unlike the western European nations, Russia has time on her side She is likely to make the most of it. even if she should now be induced to make some show of participation with the anti-HitIer front

When Guests Come
(New York Times

There is obviously nothing in name in the case of Dorothy Mary Dull of lower Second Avenue. She was among the public school children who expressed an opinion on the proper way to greet King George and Queen Elizabeth when the British soveregns to the King and ask him how he enjoyed the trip Another boy said he would say, This is an honor Your Majesty" Dorothy Mary said she would say, Tt gives great pleasure be presented to the representa- tives of another democracy
 As to Dorothy Mary's general behavior on the oc- casion we are doubtful in respect. Of the girls consulted in the poll five to one said they would curtsy to the Queen and of the boys twenty to one said they would bow to the King, but young Miss Dull said she would not curtsy And yet as a very young person she might consistently curtsy to the rep resentatives of another great democracy.
 School boys and girls who may chance to be m- troduced to King George and Queen Eizabeth-and for that matter the parents of the school children too-had better not worry about saying Your MaJes- ty" A perfectly proper way to address King is exactly the way addresses school principal; you say. Sir" And if Queen Elizabeth should happen to put question, the way to address her in reply is exactly like speaking to teacher you say, Ma am. :. Not Madam but just "Ma'am,' the way Disraeli ad- dressed Queen Victoria is still the proper form in Buckingham Palace
 very appropriate formula to symbolic the friendship of the two great English speaking peoples would be for boy girl to wait for the King and Queen to speak first and then to bow curtsy and say T am pleased to meet you, sir Cor ma am) " The pleased to- meet-you would be American and the deferentia gesture would be British.

@. When a young man has been introduced to girl, and likes her very much, is it all right for him to ask permission to call on her?
 A. Yes, after he has been in her company for a reasonable time, but not within the first twenty or thirty minutes.
 @. Isn't it a friendly gesture to hold a persons hand, or place a hand on his arm, while talking with him?
 A. It may be a friendly gesture, but it is very annoying to some people and should be avoided
 @. What would be a good toast for host to offer to guest?
 A. ITO our guest, and our only request is that he be our guest often"

MINISTER LOSES
 FISH BUT LATER
 GETS SAME KING

The Rev. G. Edward Knight went afishing at Aux Bay yesterday for King salmon, hooked fish, lost the fish, then caught the fish.
 It was 35 pound King salmon that battled it's way to freedom once and escaped with leader and hooks However the fish returned to the bait again and was brought to gaff the telltale leader and hooks of the first tiff hanging from his jaws.
 Measured by the Methodist min- ister and his companions, R. B Lesher and Capt. Stanley Jackson of the Salvation Army, the big King showed length of A inches.

 After the early morning hours, ad- verse aspects rule today, according to astrology Planning may be suc- cessful, but initiative of any sort should be avoided.
 1 Much illogical thinking and talk ing may spread fear among persons in the United States where sub versive agencies will be active and dangerous propaganda widespread The wise will watch their mental processes.
 Bad news regarding Europe may be expected this month when closer relations with British government i policies are presaged. The stars show that the United States must sup port English foreign measures.
 If astrology is to be credited with any power of foresight isolation for this country cannot be assured in case of any extensive outbreak of war
 In Argentina a new political group is foreseen and it will be encour- aged by Fascist power South Am erica and Central America are to present new problems fer our dip lomats.
 Mars is in a frowning mood that will retard peace efforts among la bor leaders as well as among world powers. The summer is to be a period of supreme tests for civiliza- tion it is prophesied
 This evening is promising for men and women who exercise authority Heads of educational institutions should benefit. The date is auspici- ous for banquets or social entertain ments.
 Women will find this a fortunate day to prepare for future gayeties.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of fairly favor able progress in business or the pro- fessions. Curb should be placed upon tempers, for quarrels will be most unfortunate in their consequences.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be endowed with strong personalities. They will be arG,iti ous and determined, but able to see both sides of a question. Many are natural leaders.

THE DANGEROUS ROAD

We are mighty peculiar people humans.
 As recently as two years ago all of us could look back with sober understanding the events which led up to the World War. and recognize in them the ridiculous mass vantes and misunderstandmgs which goaded us on to so tragic culmination.
 We knew that we were being hoodwinked, not only by expert propagandists but by our own sym pathies
 Two years ago. the history of American thought (so-called) in the few years before United States enry into the War read like fiction. It hard to believe in sober 1887 that smart people like could have been beguiled as we into hating the Ger mans and everything German.
 But this is 1889, and we are right back where in 1917.
 When we read in the newspapers story under a Berlin dateine the only thing look for in it. and hope to find is some fresh reason to dislike Hitler If should read something reflecting even slightly to the credit of the Nazi Government, we wouldn't believe it. But we don't read it, because the news papers and the big services responsive to public sentiment, know Americans aren't interested in the accomplishments of Germany, but only in her perse cutions and big guns
 This is propaganda, of the worst sort, because it is unconscious We be led into hate for Hitler all of
 Two years ago we wouldn't have believed that Americans again could be foolish. But here we are
 There is only one destination to which such tional hates lead The destination is war. We've been there once and decided didn't like the place. We swore by all that holy that would again send boys any ocean to fight. But though most of would refuse to admit it. that is just what fixing to do.
 America could no more have Stayed out of fin 1917 than it could have sprouted wings and flown to the moon. The national feelings of sympathy and hate which made war imperative started many years before
 They started as long before the World War this year 1889 may be before the next great conflict
 We don't to have to keep that date with death and destruction The time to stay out of the next war is now. Tomorrow may be too late. The time for good sound national sense is today
 Every American sheer at Hitler or curse at Mus solini is another nail in the coffin of some young American soldier, maybe your son, maybe yourself.
 Let's stay of this war, which in national pas sions has already begun by each of individually using the common sense which God gave us for just such occasions.
 Yesterday the Duke of Windsor, speaking from the World War fortress of Verdun, appealed to all political leaders for avoidance of World War.
 His radio address cut off in England, the great nation which once called him King. So far along the road to is England. It did not even want to hear appeal for peace.
 But the speech was broadcast in the United States and reported in the Amercan press. It may have done some good. Probably it did not and will be forgotten.
 Speaking simply as a soldier in the last whose most earnest prayer is that such cruel destructive
