NEW YORK.
If you ever have trouble sleeping
consider the plight of Joan Bennett.
Miss Bennett, who stirred up
quite stir by turning from a
blond into a brunette, doesn't worry
nearly so much about the hue of her
hair as she does about how she's
going TO sleep.
I'm probably the worlds most
enthusiastic sleeper she says, Il

Miss Bennett is a gadget sleeper,

vices from which the average

Propaganda VS.. Facts

Since Europe's famed into being last Septem-
ber the major sentiment of people in this country has
been to keep America out of it. Consciously
consciously most of have been telling ourselevs that
Europes quarrels not affair." that must not
become involved in them. Tied in with this sort of
reasoning has been tendency to regard with suspicion
all as mere propaganda. The idea behind this is to
keep American emotions from being swayed thus
some Understanding the first step toward involve
ment
There is something in this attitude that reminds us
of the proverbal ostrich digging its head into the sand
For certain basic facts about the and its effects
cannot be passed off propaganda. And it will do
no good to say, did Scarlet O'Hara, I'VE won't
think of that now"
These facts clear and ominous The invasion of
Norway and Denmark by German troops was but
other step in the Nazi grand march that already had
deprived Austria, Czechos0valda and Poland of all
semblance of independence. We know these things.
German troops in each of those excounries for all
the world to see.
We also know that in these cases. as in many others,
NaZi Germany has broken its pledged word not once,
but time and time again Neutral observers, indeed
citizens have attested to atrocities committed
in Nazconquered lands: racial persecution property
coniscaton and all the rest
Despite these undenable facts, there still many
Americans who protest that the national honor of all
nations engaged in the is equally bad 1t is sig
ncant, however, that all charges against the Allies,
even those originating in Germany, against democ
and capitalism. Such charges generally consist of
denuncatons of Allied leaders who are defined vaguely
exploiterS of the common people There is word
about atrocities or invasons of neutral sates-there
can be none
It is high time that every man and woman in the
United States faces these facts and realizes that
other Napoleon is the loose that England and France
are fighting against the establishment of and
ruthless order in Europe perhaps throughout the world
Not that should rush headOng into the struggle by
any means! But should realize here and now what
the outcome may be if Germany wins. And should
be prepared to meet that result.

Whispers from Washington

Washington, the capital of these United States is
also the capital of political rumors, especially in
paign year. The latest bit of gossp-and it's
than han that fair city has it that President Roose
welt is about to go into conference with Senator
Burton K. Wheeler, Montanas gift to the liberal
element of the Democratic party. This prophesied
confab, it's said will be the first step by F. D. R.
toward blessing Senator Wheeler as his in
the White House.
AS in the past, word of this conference was re-
ported to have from usually reliable sources"
Real basis for any belief that Mr.. Roosevelt may give
his support to Senator Wheeler has risen from the
renewed friendliness between the two men, but
that has been rather one-sded The Senator and the
White House broke off diplomatic relations in 1887
when Mr.. Wheeler bitterly opposed reorganization of
the Supreme Court as proposed by the New Deal The
Montanan subsequently fired several verbal tor
pedoes at Administration measures, enough TO make
him only slightly less unpopular with the President
than Republican spokesman. For time, however,
the Senator has been patting the New Deal the
back this time without knife in his hand.
Wheeler without doubt is confirmed liberal AS
such his candidacy should appeal at least little to
Mr. Roosevelt. AT any rate, F. D. r. has not dis
couraged his attempts at friendlness On the other
hand though, the President has remained apparently
cordial with Paul McNutt, though it is well known that
he has no liking for the Indianan presidential
candidate
Fact of the matter is that Mr.. Roosevelt yet
has no choice for his partys nomination, with the
possible exception of Bob Jackson and he realizes the
latter would not stand chance at the polls 1t is
almost sure bet that the President will give sign
of what he intends to do until the Democratic
ton.

For Sweet Charity-or Sump'n

recent sports show in New York City, featuring
outstanding professional tennis stars proved typical OF
entirely too many charity affairs held in this land OF
generous hearts and nottooghtly CLOSED purses. Ad
vertised as a benefit performance for Finnish relief,
the show turned into something of tennis players
relief event. judging from the itemized balance sheet
reported shortly after
Out of total $10,781 in gross receipts the show,
this statement showed that the magnificent sum of
S4,OO6.60 had been turned over, would be turned
over to the Finnish Relief Fund The remaining
S677440 charged off to expenses including such
items as a total of $684.50 to bring two players to
New York from Asheville, NJ c., trip that would cost
normal citizen travelling in lower berth exactly $45
Well, at least the tennis players involved admit they
are professionals.

ALONG The ROAD
BY
JOHN RANDOLPH SrIDMAN

The weather man is spiteful
sort of a cuss. No matter how
pleasant it may be, he always
heads his report, "Mean Tempera-
lures"
A Baltimore paper presents pic
lures, showing a German crew shot
down from their plane over the
North Sea, being rescued from
their collapsible boat by the Brit
ish destroyer which shot them
down. They tried to kill them
while in the air, but saved them
from a watery grave. War is
rather inconsistent and ridiculous,
eh what!
An editorial in local paper
states that duels are now out of
date in Maryland. The writer has
overlooked the little matter in
progress between Governor
O'Conor and Mayor Jackson.
A former collector in Baltimore's
City Collectors Office is being
presented by the Grand Jury on
charges involving a shortage of
$4,000 in the city's finances, has
resigned his city post. His resig-
nation has been accepted without
hesitation on the part of the Off
Gals.
In Confucius column this strik-
ing epigram appears, "War does
not determine who is right = only
who is left" Let the Allies please
note, and when they mop up, leave
nothing.
The tthroat, mouth and nose is
compared to the postoffice, by Doc
tor Dafoe. This analogy is used
to explain the work of the human
organs. The nose and throat may
be disregarded, but the mouth is
really indispensable in playing
"postofice."
