WHAT WILL STOP GERMANY?

If she keeps on driving at the present rate, Germany is soon going to out of some neces- sary war material. It may be oil. Rumors that Russia has stopped shipments of oil to her economic ally are worth watching, though they are not to be credited on the basis of present information. It may be any one of a dozen products which Ger many must import which will cause the formidable war machine to rumble to halt
 The iron shortage in the Fatherand must be acute The Economist of London publishes a survey of this situation It is estimated that Ger many may depend getting about 50O000O tons of ore from Swedish Iapand via the Luea route, now open for shipping since ice has left the upper Baltic The Narvik route which accommodated vastly greater has been closed by the Brit ish The Economist in the final summary, decides that at best Germany will be 100000 or more tons per year short of normal requirements, and adds:
 "In long that might be decisive. For some time however, Germany could keep up her output by using her stocks of ore and by ruthless col lection Of scrap"

| There has been less danger to France from thi source than there has been until now in Britain. For a time Englishmen joked about an invasion by parachute troops The story is no longer facet ous There is real danger that Britain will be n- vaded for the first time in nearly 900 years The
 coordination between these sky troops and Naz agents has been demonstrated in the Netherlands
 The plans for sabotage and the sowing of confusion at the critical hour are skfully laid
 Tn countries like Britain and France it is a comparatively easy matter to corral suspects. It is more difficult and the consequences are more dan- gerous in the Balkan states. Rumania, for instance, is overrlin with German tourists" There is Ger man minority in Rumania that has retained its original language and customs for 700 years. Today many of them are Nazs. Thus any move against Germans in the neutral states of southeastern Flu rope always runs the risk of retaliation.
 But aside from these aliens there is another and more dangerous section of the fifth column" It is the native who for the sake of fleetng moment of personal glory would essay the roll of Seyss- Inuuart or Henlein. These traitors are more diff ficut to find But Britain has taken precauton- ary step that should eliminate much of the danger in Hitler's stab in the back manner of conducting warfare.

ENEMIES WITHIN

Britain has taken the initiative on the home front. Aliens have been rounded up or placed under strict surveillance With the example of Norway and The Netherlands as warning, Britain does not intend to fall victim to fifth column tactics.
 Since Hitler started persecution of his racial victims and political opponents Britain has been generous in receiving refugees. There are some 62 900 Germans and 12000 Austrans in the British Isles Most of these people, without question, are as bitterly opposed to the Nazis the most patriotic Englishmen. But no chances be taken.
 Only German officials could grant permits to refugees and it was an easy matter to include Ger man agents among the number It is an old trick. The Italian secret police, the OVRA, wormed it's agents among the Italian exiles in Paris.
 From the beginning of the war France took good care to reexamine the aliens within her borders

 Heart and Home Work in the household may seem unusually tire some under this sway which in- clines women to find fault with their environment. The stars en- courage beginnings of many sorts, especially those that depend upon the concurrence of the holder of the family pocketbook. Summer homes should be repaired and re- | furnished under this configuration. The afternoon is favorable for plan ming.
 Business Affairs: Commerce is under fortunate influences tn a t seem to presage expansion that is more or less explorative. New mar kets may be tested for novel pro- ducts. Food preservation and con- densation will prove of great value in the work of succoring war vic- tims in need of aid. Children of all nations will benefit through ad- vanced methods of supplying cheap nutrition.
 National Issues: Road building will assume increased interest as preparedness programs are pushed through the summer. Need of the most thorough program for de- fense may be suddenly apparent as foreign nations alter their, friendly attitude. The Pacific Coast is to be much in the newspaper headlines before the end of the summer as trade agreements and disagree ments increase.
 International Affairs: Democracy as it is applied to the United States Government will be subjected to scrutiny and criticism. The oppor- tunity to demonstrate the advan- tage of Government "by the peo- pie, for the people" will be fCf su- preme importance in world affairs. Misrepresentation of Americ n ideals and their practical applica- tion will be widespread and may not be confined to countries ruled by dictators. s

 There is nothing in fair becoming sort of antidote for war. AS the President points out, flor 5 centuries they have served to keep lines O. communication open when disorder, war or mlsfor- tune closed other channels.

Then she fell in love with someone he with
lrew himself for the time without word.
There he was. always waiting, when she was
p\ver the storms of passionate love- She never
h'ummoned him. He simply knew, and came
leiack from wherever he was - sometimes only
Plrom Paris or the Riviera, but sometimes from
Tibet. or China How did he know? Once she
esked him, and he said calmly, MY dear.
nirst | interest myself in something else for
1three months. Then read your notices. If they
TIRE quite bad buy my ticket home" Home.
She knew, meant wherever she was. Sometimes
t was as far as America.
She never thought she would end her days
n America But it was always where she had
made the most money. Besides. to come to
america had been the only way she could free
herself that time from Dino.
She had loved only Dino. painfully and COM
'pletely. Until he came. she had always known
That she loved singing better. and sometimes
her sweetest singing was when she was alone.
,bhe could lose herself completely in lonely
binging. 50 that when she had finished she felt
bathed as though her soul had been washed
Even confession at the church used not to be
relief until she had finished it in music.
She had burst into singing that very first
morning she had been alone with Rupert. She
had suddenly been compelled to sing. He was
so incomprehensible, 50 cold. 50 silent in his
,passion Not to love - that was the great sin.
!l1lIhe had never realized it before. Now it came
over her like truth from heaven. She was sin
[Ifu! Immediately she had been compelled in
',her guilt to run into the next room and there
,lcry out in singing.
: When she finished, Rupert was there. She
i,had not seen him come in.
II My dear" he said with his strange, gentle
foolness you have missed your vocation You
fare great singer, not great lover"
Id tie lit cigarette and looked at her with his
peculiarly light gray eyes, Il shan't ever forget
bit" he said slowly.
After that he gave her everything. She did
not see Naples again for ten years; then she
went back to sing in great concert. Into those
ten years Rupert had put all that her voice
needed, the best of teaching, quiet and beau
sttiful little house in Paris, time and rest and
esecurity. You are to think only of YOUR voice."
he said.
And yet. when her gratitude welled some
times up into affection for him, he never forgot
ethe personal things she loved = emeralds.
camellias and Turkish delight; small dogs and
fluffy kittens. and the richly -colored satin
gowns which suited her dark beauty.
why do you do 50 much for me?" she asked
him the day he brought her great honey
