pointed out that Germany is temporarily stand
ing pat in the Balkans because she has all she
can do in the west. An Axis victory, the
Turks contend, might change the situation over
night.
So it would seem, but the argument may not
be convincing in Moscow. MUssoL1NI did not
listen to warnings that by entering the war on
H1rLER's side he would only forge chains Tor
the Italian people. The Russians may be equal
ly impervious to logic, for good or bad reasons.
True, the signs are that they are taking
heed. They have now renewed regular diplo-

RUSSIA

From Belgrade come expressions Of conf
dence that in case of an Italian thrust across
the Adriatic the Russians would come to the
aid of Yugoslavia. Well based or not, these
statements at least call attention to the import
ance of Russia's role in the new situation.
To indicate this Importance still more clearly
it is only necessary to repeat what the Turks
are saying-that Moscow holds the key to Tur-
keys participation in the war. If the Kremlin
uses it's weight to keep Italy from extending
hostilities to the eastern Mediterranean, Tur-
key can stay out. Otherwise Turkey will have
to fight.
The Turks are more than willing to stay at
peace, to judge from the arguments the Turk.
ish press has been citing for the benefit of the
Russians. The Turkish case is that Russia can.

Mediterranean because the Involvement of the
states around the Black sea would directly af

FATHERS DAY


Perhaps dad doesn't deserve much sympa-
thy. He sets up rules of conduct in the home
which irk us tremendously. He insists on hav-
ing meals on time and raises the dickens when
they are late-or cold. He wants an account
ing of household expenditures and wonders why
Junior needs so many shoes and Sister must
can't get along without a servant. He's a fuss
budget, and it's a mercy he's out of the house
so much of the time.
But once a year, on Fathers Day, we take
time to a~ppraise his position, and sometimes
come to the conclusion that it would be hard
to get along without him, especially when first
of-the-month bills roll in.
In the fulfillment of another year, tomorrow
will be Fathers Day. He won't know it unless
Sister and Junior and Mother greet him with
a kiss at the breakfast table and perhaps slip
a little package beside his plate-some token
showing that he is still an important factor in
family existence. And even then he may be
too male to make a fuss over the unusual
demonstration but in his heart he'll feel a deep,
comforting thrill.
It will be we'll worth while to do something
out of the ordinary for dad tomorrow. For
all his crankiness and discipline, he's a good
scout under the surface. Make him know that
you know it.

In the first place, motion picture
production is highly specialized.
Every position is held by a person
trained and experienced in the par
ticular work he or she performs.
A college education is valuable.
But in practical use it is nothing
more or less than a tool, which
may be used to advantage only
through the experience of the
person using it.
Many engineering graduates ap-
ply, for instance, for work in the
sound department. Their technical
training is only a foundation. The
experience in the particular prob
lens that 60 into sound recording
is absent.
An engineers diploma alone does
not make them of any use. Sound
engineers come from long training,
much Of it in practical telephone
work. The graduates local tele-
phone company should be his at
tempted take-off for such work.
Girls who have studied design
want to design costumes. This, too,
is a very specialized calling. Train
ing in the theater and in big CO.'S
tune houses should be their start
ing work.
In every Observation-Disclosures,
makeup, set designing, sound,
electrical-the work calls for per-
sons experienced in their lines.
Even in the acting field, the
Cinderella story is a myth. Aspi-
rants should try the Little Theater,
or some good professional training
such as Union Colleges Mohawk
Drama Festival, for experience
first.
Every day we receive applicants
for work. Willing to try anything
and learn" is the usual plea.
The applicant doesn't know what
he can do in a studio, or what he
wants to do. He just wants a job.
Kindest advice I can give the
average graduate, and the most
truthful, is Stay Away from Hol-
lywood until your experience in
other work fits you for usefulness
there"

QUOTATIONS.

Let America be strong. Then, if America fights
a war, it will be our own war, for our own coun.

American Legion.
Dazzed by Hitler's promises Of vast French
booty, Mussolini has made his fateful decision.
In doing so he has demonstrated to the vast ma
jority of peace-loving, God-fearing Italians that
he has outlived his usefulness.-Goffredo Pan
taleoni, who resigned as head of the Italian Tour
list Office.

THE NORTH CAROLINA"

The launching of the battleship North Caro-
security. The first was the battleship Wash
ington's trip down the ways. This is the
language, said Governor HoEY as the North
Carolina ~splashed into the East river, even
a dictator can understand"
Thirty-five thousand tons naval power, that
even HITLER can recognize as a bar to his pro-
gress, in combination with other, even more
powerful, battleships to come and many lesser
craft now building or contracted for, serve
notice on ambitious dictators that the United
States is in deadly earnest in its purpose to pre-
serve it's right to live in freedom.
There may even be a darker day than yes
terday, when Paris fell, for the Allies. France
may go down before the might of the Nazi
armies. Her physical conquest is grimly posi-.
BILE, perhaps near. Her spiritual conquest can
not come, but France may have to be a puppet
state of HITLER. London, all England, may be
taken. 1t is among HITLER fondest dreams.
But as long as America exists, he shall not
possess its lands. This is the message that the
spreading backwash of the East river carried
when the hull of the North Carolina started it
at it's launching.
1t is significant that the state which has
taken its place in the forefront of every mill
tary emergency of the nation and of the South
should give it's lame to this the second dread

It's intelligence and integrity are required for
