This French phrase, familiar to
all of us. has not been Anglicized.
It cannot be pronounced according
to English rules. Peace dee re-
ZIS- -tance" is flophouse French.
Our language would, indeed, be
impoverished If we were denied the
thousands of loan words from the
French for which there are no Eng
lish equivalents. How could we do
without coupon, garage. chauffeur,
negligee. lingerie, chic. ensemble,
automobile?
Since the rules for pronouncing
French and English are as far apart
as the poles, many of us who are
unacquainted with French often
commit ridiculous blunders, such
as chase lounge" for chaise Tongue
(shayz LONG,, "chick" for chic
(sheek). "AM-a-cher" for amateur
tam-a-TERR0 and horse doovers"
for hors d'oeuvres (see tomorrows S
column.
When you encounter word
which appears to have a Gallo
flavor, seek the aid of a good die
tionary or ask a French-speaking
friend to help you.
In piece de resistance, the first
word is like the "P. S." at the bot
tom of a letter. De has the "uh''
sound of dub. The first syllable of
resistance rhymes with day: the
second syllable rhymes with geese.
The third or tance syllable can
not be exactly given here because
there is no sound in English pho

full stranger had slipped away as
silently as a shadow.
All the rest of that night Light

The longing to find that beautiful
stranger had become SO great that
he fairly ached with it. 1t seemed
to him that until he found her he
could know no happiness.

Wholesale Commodity
Index Up Slightly

A slight advance was registered
in the week ended April 20 by the
wholesale commodity price index
compiled by the National Fertilizer
Association.
This index last week rose to 72.4
from 1913 in the preceding week. A
month ago it was 724. year ago
74.2 and two years ago 875, based
on the l926-1928 average as 100.
Although the rise in the all-com-
modify index was due largely to
higher prices for foodstuffs, such
important raw materials as lumber,
copper, tin. cotton, rubber and bur-
lap were also higher.
The rise in the food price index
took it to the highest point reached
since last January.
The farm product price average
dropped to new low point for re-
cent years, with declining quotations
for live stock more than offsetting
increases in cotton and grains.
The textile price average is now
higher than at any time since early
last year.
Small increases during the week
also occurred in the indexes repre-
senting the prices of building ma
terials and miscellaneous commodi-
ties.
In the metal group rising prices
for copper and tin offset declines in
steel scrap and brass products.
