REHEARSAL FOR LOVE
By Faith Baldwin

The lives of four people are inter-
meshed in this exiting, witty, and
always credible story of the New
York of today-a story which re-
solves itself, finally, against the
diabolical fury of the Great Hurri-
cane.
What happens to Kathleen
Roberts when her father and
mother decide to go on a rest
cruise to Europe?
What happens to Paul Mcclure,
the young and handsome play
wright?
What happens to Pat Belle, the
self-made, dynamic contractor
when he hires Kathleen as his per-
sonal secretary? =
What happens to Hannah, in love
with Paul Mcclure and torn be-
tween two Royalties?
Faith Baldwin writes fresh and
engaging story of the human quail
ity that lies behind the formid-
able aspects Of New York life.

Canby-"As idle as a painted
ship upon a painted ocean" That's
the way Arden Larson and Leroy
Swinnell were for long chilly hours
recently, except it was not a paint
ed ocean but a real body of water.
The two men left an oil station
fifteen miles north of town in Lar
sons car and had gone only about
a mile when they came upon water,
formed when three creeks over
flowed their banks. 1t flowed ov-
err the road for a halt-mile. Upon
deciding to navigate the water they
shifted into low, and went along
nicely until they neared the CEN
ter of the flood; at this point they
began to submerge and soon the
water was above the running board
and the motor which wasn't de-
signed for submarine duty, quit. So

Business Will Fight

An increasing number of business and industrial
organizations becoming fed up with political
coercion and harassment, and a number of them
are preparing to fight back by taking their to
the public through educational campaigns designed
to show how the country a whole is being injured
by unreasonable laws which handicap the business
community.
Among the organizations which will have an
active part in voicng the demand for greater free
dom for private enterprise is the National Associa-
ton Of Manufacturers whose members provide the
greater part of the nations industrial payros The
associations president H w. Prentis Jr, recently
declared
"Henceforth industry will decline to turn the
other cheek. 1t will meet unjustfied attacks with
undeniabe facts militantly and decisively."
It is undeniabe that economic recovery has been
retarded by almost endless succession of hostile
legislative acts which have brought hardship and
bewilderment to business men, big and little. An
atmosphere of fear and uncertainty has been created
which has discouraged the investment of capt.
tai, which is so necessary to provide jobs for the
army of unemployed.
Efforts to combat and correct this situation
should have the support of every citizen who is in
terested in his country's economic welfare.

Rebuilding Finland

Ambitious plans for the rebuilding of Finland's
damaged cities and public institutions, including
housing for 100000 persons evacuated from their
former homes discussed in New York recently
by Avar Aaltor, leading Finnish architect, and
group of his countrymen and American friends
Mr.. Aalto has been in this country in connection
with bringing the Finnish exhibit at the New York
worlds fair up to date, and he will have import
ant part in the proposed rehabilitation program upon
his return to his native land
An organization for raising funds with which to
rebuild the churches of Finland has already been
formed by Protestant ministers of Scandinavian
American churches. Members Of leading American
women's clubs have also pledged themselves to
operate in the rebuilding program.
The task of reconstruction is oppor-
tunity to make Finland a laboratory for
civic planning which would interest designers, arch
fleets and engineers of all countries. Plans include
the building of four entirely model towns, and
besides the rehabilitation of those existing.
1t is hoped that the Finnish people may be per-
mitted to live in in order that they may
out the worthy plans they have in mind
