Back u. 5. Plan
For Consultation
Session to Discuss
War Problems Nav
Be Held in Havana
BY GARNETT, ID. HORNER.

All OF the 20 other American
republics have approved in prin-
clple a suggestion by the United
States for an early consultation to
discuss new problems confronting
THIS hemisphere as result of
European war developments, Sec
retary of State Hull said today.
Mr.. Hull said the conference Of
foreign ministers of the 81 Amer
lean nations would be held as soon
as practical, but that the time and
place Of the meeting had not vet
been decided upon. The conference
is generally expected to be held in
Havana, where the American for
eign ministers agreed last fall to
meet IN October. 1t has been sug-
gested that the emergency session
be held in Havana in. place of the
scheduled meeting.
Agenda Not Defined.
Secretary Hull said further COL
liberation with the other American
nations through diplomatic chan
nels would be necessary before he
could outline the subjects that
might be taken up for discussion
at the meeting.
This Government has made it
| clear. however. that it considered
present conditions make it desirable
that anything which conceivably
could affect the peace and security
Of this hemisphere should be dis
cussed.
The problems of military CO.
operation to meet any threat Of
aggression from Europe, as well as
proposals for economic unity to COM
bat totalitarian penetration in this
field. are expected to play a major
part in the discussions.
Economic Cartel.
Mr.. Hull said today that this Gov
ernment's proposed program for q
$4,000 ,000, 900 economic cartel to
handle all major exports from the
American nations was being whipped
into shape for early submission to
the other governments, but that 1t
was not certain whether this pro-
posal would be taken up at the
forthcoming conference or would be
handled separately.
The meeting also is expected to
consider definite plan of action to
implement the pan-American policy
against transfer of any territory
held by European power in this
hemisphere to another outside pow
er in view of the possibility that
Germany and Italy might attempt
to take over Allied possessions in
| the Americas.

japanese troops from the south
China province Of Kwangsi were re-
ported today to be moving toward
French ,Indo- China as other Japa-
nese fotces steadily completed the
occupation of areas adjacent to
Hong KDng's mainland.
The Japanese advance in this Sec
ton, described omcially as an opera
ton only against Chinese guerillas
was carried out without ground
fighting. although there was some
bombing.
During the day only a few police
manned the British frontier cros-
sings, but toward nightfall truck
loads of troops moved along the
circuitous roads toward the border
British officials, however, decried
alarmist reports, saying the measures
were purely precautionary. They
pointed out that the Japanese had
given advance notice of their opera
tions and emphasized that no threat
to Hong Kong was intended.
Reoccupation caused uneasiness in
many quarters. Some quarters
linked the move with reports that
Japan might be planning an invasion
Of French 1ndo-China, which Chi
nese circles declared inevitably would
be coupled with a Japanese attempt
to seize Hong Kong also.

 Raisins.
 Nineteen months old son extreme 1y fond of raisins. When he gets several dozens a day he does not wet the bed. Are raisins injurious to his health in any way? If fed stead fly they do not digest, I know.
 (Mrs. H.B) Answer-RaiSins are very efficient in reducing acidity of urine-per- haps that accounts for the effect you observed. Usually raisfns are wholesome enough for children, but babies less than two years old have some difficulty in handling them Excessive acidity of urine is fre- quent factor of bed-wetting in older children. A child under three years of age is entitled to wet more or less, but when it happens after the age of three years parents should write OF Doc Brady, inclosing the inevitable stamped addressed envel- ope, for instructions for manage ment of the habit.

 Gifts that will allow her to de- velop great interest in something in which she always has been little interested are what many q woman would like for Christmas.
 When Dad first showed an interest in golf, the entire family, you may be sure, rallied around and supplied him with good clubs and gadgetS and otherwise made it possible for him to learn golf and enjoy it. When he decided he'd like to do some fish, ing now and then, mother saw to it that the budget allowed for rods and reels and various other bits of equipment.
 But has he-or anyone else in the family-done much about mothers interest in gardening except to re- mark now and then what nice flow CTS she manages to get from a few cents worth of seeds?
 Somebody ought to consider that the woman in the home might enjoy piano lessons as much as the head of the house, so to speak, enjoys fishing or bowling or golf. This would be a fine Christmas to do something about it.
 GIVE ART LOVER
 A GOOD PAINTING
 It's just possible that the woman who likes paintings and runs to a museum every chance she gets would be more pleased with good paint ing or several fine books on the sub- ject than on new equipment for the kitchen. The amateur gardener might like some prize bulbs, few books on flowers or a gift order at a nursery or greenhouse.
 The woman who has mentioned liking music only now and then probably would be pretty happy to | find a victrola under her Christmas tree. A good victrola is expensive, but no more expensive than the good movie camera she gave her husband one Christmas.
 Naturally, I don't think that mother should be given a hobby at the risk of wrecking the budget. But
 I do think it's pretty mean of the
 entire family never to consider that
 she might have as much fun with
 8 hobby as dad and the children dc
 with theirs.

 While he was in New York, he participated in the Cavendish Club duplicate with Waldemar von zedt- witZ, perhaps the worlds greatest card analyst, as his partner. The Cavendish Club duplicate, in which many experts participate, is certain ly one of the toughest games in the counery. Dunne was quite thrilled when the score came out, showing that he and von Zedtwitz had won top score.
 Dunne held the East cards in the hand shown today. He won the opening lead with the ace of spades.
 Pat counted that declarer could win probably four diamond tricks, 1 or two spades, and at least four clubs. Continuation of the spades looked useless. The only chance ap- peared to be that West held club stopper.
 So Pat shifted to the nine of hearts. North won with the jack, took the club finesse and West was in with the king, returning a heart. Thus the contract went down to de feat

DISTINCTION OF THINGS
 HANDLED OR USED

@@A@A~
 One of the most frequent queries from readers concerns the question of using shoes, furs, hats, clothing, blankets, bed linen, upholstered fur niture, beds, mattresses, rugs dish es, draperies, hangings, table linen, coats, stockings, gloves, underwear, towels, combs. hair brushes, hand kerchiefs, bath tubs, rooms, houses and furniture or Ailments which have been used by persons with communicable disease.
 Somewhere between mysophobia (morbid or insane dread or fear of dirt) and sanitary asepsis or sci- entific cleanliness there is sensi- ble and safe course to follow in ref erence to the question of using or destroying such things.
 In the records of modern medi- cine and sanitation so far as my research shows, there is no authen- tic instance of the spread of infec- tion or disease of serious nature by the use of any of the second hand things above mentioned if the things were given the ordinary cleaning that makes soiled clothing safe to wear-that is, soap and water wash ing and ironing, or dry cleaning, or just airing for day in the sun.
 With minor exceptions which will be mentioned. presently, ordinary soap and water washing, preferably hot water, is adequate ''precaution" to take in treating clothing, linen, furniture, floors, and anything else that can be washed. Dry cleaning is adequate for clothing that can't be washed. For gloves, shoes, hat bands or other things that have been worn by any one, the best precau- tion against spread of such annoy ing but not serious troubles as ring worm (dermatophytosis) and scabies (pronounced Skay-bi-ease, accenting the first syllable, commonly known as the itch) is the application of diluted formaldehyde (formalin) so- lution,-one part of the standard of ficial pharmacopoeia standard 37 per cent Liquor Formadlehyde in one-half pint of water. Let the material soak in this for half an hour, then dry it. Formaldehyde does not decoloriZe nor injure fab rics.
 Another efficient means of detroy- ing itch mites, fungi of ringworm, even pediculi Oice) or bedbugs is immersion in gasoline for an hour.
 Of course care is necessary in handling formaldehyde for the .un- diluted standard Liquor (37 per cent) is irritating to the skin and caustic to mucous membranes with which it comes in contact. Likewise care is necessary in using gasoline, for its vapor in the air is infiam- mable and explosive and may ignite from a nearby pilot light in some gas appliance. from careless or thoughtless striking of match in the next room, from a spark acci- dentally produced.
 Aside from its value as a parasl- ticide. formaldehyde is an efficient germiclde or disinfectant. For ex- ample. even spores of anthrax, if present, may be destroyed by soak ing a new shaving brush or other brush for four hours in warm so- lution of Llq. Formaldehyde (37 per cent) in water, one part of eight of water, and finally rinsing the brush repeatedly in clear water before use ing. The same strength of formal dehyde solution is often used for dis- injecting implements used by doc- tors. dentists, barbers. etc, though
