Jobs for June
Graduates

BY WALTER HOVlNG
President, Lord and Taylor, New
York; Author of "Your Career In
Business, DUEL, Sloan and
Pearce, so
First solemn truth for the young
newly employed person to keep in
mind is that each added RESPONSE
bility in any career requires a
bigger person to carry the load
Hard work, and long, consistent
service are points which your en-
ployer takes into consideration when
he thinks of you in terms of promo
ton. For the good of his business
the determining factor must be whe-
Their you have grown as a person
since YOU started work, or since
your last promotion. and are no"
big enough for added responsibility
Only the person who enriches
himself will grow to meet respon-
sibility and should deserve promo
ton.
This is not simply a question OF
training, of e-iucation, nor of ac-
curing more and more informa-
ton about your job. 1t is ques-
ton of reaching beyond the boun-
diaries of your job, of widening your
personal horizon, of becoming
broader, richer. more significant as
a human being
The young woman who selects
the advertising or merchandising
ladders to success in depart
ment store must be able to sell
easily and well. Without that abil-
ity she has little chance of success.
If she hopes that her flare for
selling will lead her into advertis-
ing rather than merchandising, she
must be able to write and to get
across in newspaper advertisements
the dramatic possibilities of the
merchandise.
Advertising is craftsmanship in
print. Successful selling is valuable
experience that can lead to it.
If he is to go from selling into
merchandising-to become a Junior
executive tperhaps head of stock
or assistant buyer)-She must also
have the ability to manage both
merchandise and people. If she is
to go to become buyer, she must
have creative imagination-the abil-
ity to see possibilities of developing,
improving and promoting attrac-
lively the merchandise on her
shelves.
You will notice that, so far, this
has been addressed to women in

Regardless of your sex, don't wait
until graduation to look for a job.
Don't expect diploma to get

none too soon to lay your plans.
The surest way to get a hit-or-miss

ECONOMIC UNION ONE
STEP TOWARD SECURITY

President Roosevets proposed econo-
mic union of the 81 Western Hemisphere
republics is one step toward national
security for the United States.
1t is a step that must be taken before
any other can be mplished-unless
we want to turn the force of our armies
against our neighbors in this hemisphere
to make them comply with our demands.
There is no use telling ourselves that we
are safe because those q republics are
our neighbors, and because they happen
to live in the same hemisphere. We are
not Just as we are going to do the thing
that is to our advantage, so will they.
If it turns out to be to their advantage
TO dicker with the dctators, they will
do so. And they won't give whoop in
a rain barrel whether what they do hap
pens to be to our liking.
The only thing we can do about it is
to show them how it will be their advan-
tage to join US in preserving this hemi-
spheres way of life.
South America right now sells the
same things the United States sells. The
only thing we've got that they want is
machinery, and heretofore they've been
able to get that cheaper from the Euro
pean countries, because they can trade
there with goods we in this country
would not take.
If there is to be ioint action by the
American nations on any front, there
must be an economic balance struck in
this hemisphere which will allow not
only the United States, but all of the
American republics, to tell the dictators
to go jump in the Mediterranean. I'm
less such an economic balance is brought
about, there are only two alternatives:
l. Accept the fact that European pen
etration of South America will continue
with renewed strength after the war is
over; or,
g. Make up our minds that we've got
to enforce with armed strength-even in
spite of resistance by other nations of
this hemisphere-any slightest encroach-
ment by Europe in either Western Henri
sphere or territory.
The choice is harsh one. 1t would be
so much better to bring into being such
an economic union as President Roose-
welt now proposes, for through such
union the Americas would stand united
in fact, as we'll as in oratory.

Here Is What
Il Duce Wants
By UNITED PRESS

The grand war aim of Italian
Premier Benito Mussolini. as has
been broadly outlined in his writ
ings and speeches, is to fulfill in his
lifetime the Fascist dream Of a
modern Roman empire. including
or dominating every land encircling
the Mediterranean.
His demands, specifically, include
Suez, Djibouti. Malta, Cyprus, Cor
sica and Gibraltar.
Possession of those British and
French strongholds in and around
the Mediterranean would convert
the sea into an African lake, and
Italy would hold the key to all
North Africa and Asia Minor.
without those demands sat
isfied, and satisfied to the ut
most, Nussolini maintains that
Italy Is n prisoner, locked In
the Mediterranean by British
and French Notifications.
To free Italy and give h er a
place in the sum-" he has plunged
into war his nation that has had
little success in war in its recent
great battles.

Coulee Slide Destroys
Damsiie Roadways

GRAND COULEE, Wash. - En-
gineers and workmen labored today
to repair damage caused by a land
slide, which carried $4,000 cubic
yards of rock and earth into
Columbia river above Grand Coulee
dam.
Nearly 200 feet of construction
roadway was carried away and $50
feet of the main damsite highway
was endangered by the slide. En-
gineers said the slippage appar-
entity was caused by drop in the
level of the lake behind the dam,
which relieved pressure at the base
of the slide.
