rowed it. A year later she asked
me for her comb and l told her
that returned it to her the day
borrowed it. She says l didn't.
Help me!
Ans: 1t is unfortunate that she
waited so long to ask you about the
comb you did return it at the
time you stated. If it will make
the woman feel any better >. Of
fer to buy her a new comb for you
certainly do not want her going
around the neighbOrhOOd stating
that you borrowed her comb and
failed to return it and that is what
she will do too.
R. J. H.: Will it pay me to leave
this town or not? / am at a point
that l do not know what to do.
Ans: /, too, think that it would
be a wise idea for you to make a
complete change. Get entirely
away from your present surround
ings and look for a job in the city.
You need regular work but
you must learn how to look for a
job. Register at the agencies and
make dozens of calls each day un-
til you are successful.
E. R.: am very sad. Will my
husband do any better or will he
remain the same. Tell me what
to do, please?
Ans: If anyone has any grounds
for complaint you certainly do
have. His actions are very I'M
becoming and it is my sincere be-
lief that he isn't going to continue
the life he is living right now. He,
too, is a little ashamed en-
courage him and l am sure he will
brace up and pull himself together.

Bark|ey's Persuasive
Manner Helps Him
In Convention Chair
Duties Of Presiding
Officer Rest Lightly
On Kentuckion
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. July blossoms In
how to preside and love it were
given at the Democratic Convention
by Senator Barkley, permanent
chairman.
Never, perhaps, did the exacting
duties of presiding officer sit more
lightly on the shoulders of a chair
man. The broad-shouldered Ken
tuckian adopted the persuasive
rather than the belligerent tech
nique. He fairly cooed into. ,he
platform microphone. when he was
not singing into it, alone or accom-
panied.
Certainly no presiding officer at
any convention has done more
catch-as-catch-can singing than the
Senator. A robust and far from I'M
pleasant baritone was lifted at every
session, to the delight of the crowd
and the visiting artists.
From the press seats Senator
Barkley appeared distinctly put out
when a song not in his repertoire
was begun. A tall cowboy broke
into song about old Wyoming, and
the Senator had neither words nor
music. But he came back strong
when the singer moved into God
Bless America" as an encore.
Many an obscure delegate had his
say right in the forefront of the
speakers platform because Senator
Barkley believes in living and letting
live,

Argentina Opposes
New World Mandates

BUENOS AIRES, July 10 ,Up.-
Foreign Minister Jose Maria Cantilo
indicated last night Argentina's dele
gates to the pan-American defense
consultations opening in Havana
Sunday were opposed to possible
military pacts or mandates for
Western Hemisphere possessions OF
defeated European powers.
The minister, himself unable to
attend the conference because OF
pressing duties here, spoke in gen.
eral terms, but he said enough to
make it clear Argentina wants q
free hand to safeguard access to
European markets, which take
three-fourths of her exports.
Argentina's aloofness from all
suggestions smacking of armed al
lance was further emphasized by
official silence whenever it was men,
toned the Havana conference may
discuss pan-American mandates for
French or Dutch colonies In this
hemisphere.
Behind Argentina's apparent op-
position to any military alliance is
tradition of distrust for any pro-
posal which in Argentine opinion
might lead to United States tutelage
of South America.
Official Argentine circles have
frowned on reports now current that
Washington diplomats are talking
of consultations among army gen.
eral staffS of the American republics
and other joint defense plans.

upon this individual count.
There was call for poll of the

Modified Guardsmen would re-
ceive Regular Army pay beginning

recommended by the Army also for

summer training Guardsmen receive

Another phase of the preparedness
program was emphasized by Senator
Norris, Independent, of Nebraska,
who forecast the development Of
numerous regional power projects
to facilitate munitions manufacture.
Speaking after conference of
agriculture, industry and labor rep
resentatives with defense experts
yesterday, Senator Norris said all
agreed that ample sources Of power
were vital to plans for decentraliz-
ing powder factories, aluminium pro-
duction and other industrial units
essential for rearmament.
The veteran public power advocate
and sponsor of the Tennessee Valley
Authority said that tentatively pro-
jected munitions factories would be
scattered throughout the country.
Many, he said, would be in the inte-
rior far from centers of population
and protected from possible attacks
by enemy bombers or sabotage.
1T was agreed that an electric
power program was as advantageous
as peace move as a war move" he
said. when power can be trans
mitted by wire, then proper decen-
tralization of industry is possible"
Senator Norris said the defense
conference broadly involved inte-
grafton of agriculture into the entire
program. He said a surplus of farm
labor in many rural areas could be
utilized for labor in these industries.
Other developments included:
The National Defense Commission
invited proposals for the manufac-
ture of toluol, an essential element
Of INT, from petroleum. Designat-
ing the Army ordnance department
in Wilmington, Del, as the clearing
house, the commission said proposals
would be considered from contrac-
tors prepared to manufacture in
large quantities within IL months
from the contract date.

President Notified
From Peach-CoIored
Hotel Phone Booth
RooseveIt's Choice
Of Wallace Revealed
In Chot With Byrnes
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July 19.-From
dimly-lighted peach-colored tele-
phone booth in a reception room of
the Blackstone Hotel, President
Roosevelt received his first official
notification that the Democratic
National Convention mad shattered
precedent by nominating him for
third term.
The notification came in the form
of a telephone message from Sem
ator Byrnes of South Carolina,
long time personal friend of the
President and his unofficial man
ager for the Chicago convention.
AS described by committee men,
bers, there was nothing of the
breathless suspense that is sup
posed to accompany historical mo-
ments. The gray-haired, twinkly-
eyed Byrnes stepped into the small,
plain anteroom, sat down on a
small chair, lifted the receiver off
one of the two telephones on little
white shelf and asked the operator
to get him the White House.
Going to Be Very Formal"
There was some delay and Sen
ator Byrnes went back into the
larger room.
The Notification Committee, of
which Senator Byrnes was chair
man, sat around a long, green
topped table, talked of this and that
and gazed out of the big windows
toward the shimmering blue surface
of Lake Michigan, only a few hun
dred feet away.
At the table were Gov. Culbert
Olson of California, Mayor Edward
j. Kelly of Chicago, Senator Guffey
of Pennsylvania and Charles Saw
yer, Ohio National Committeeman.
Suddenly the phone rang.
Senator Byrnes stepped back into
the anteroom and lifted the receiver.
AS pieced together from the &C
counts of committee members. Sem
ator Byrnes' conversation ran some
thing like this:
Hello Mr.. President, I am 60
ing to be very formal with you. You
know. we are charged with the duty
of giving you some surprising news. y
Reveals Choice of Wallace.
The President, who often chats
with Senator Byrnes on the phone
here. evidently quipped about the
speedy action of the committee in
notifying him of the convention
action.
Senator Byrnes' reply to the Presi-
dents joke was said to have been:
SWELL we can't hold our horses"
It was then that the President re-
vealed his plans to address the con-
vention by radio.
The discussion was said to have
turned to vice presidential posi-
bilities, with Senator Byrnes reas-
suring the President that he per-
sonally did not desire the honor.
Subsequent conversation was said
to have developed the fact that the
President wanted Secretary of Agri-
culture Wallace for his running
mate. and Senator Byrnes told the
President that Mr.. Wallace would
have his enthusiastic support.
Thus ended a conversation which
officially notified Franklin Delano
Roosevelt that he was the first
President to be nominated for a
third term while in Office.
