now that they have defeated

The Little Things of Life.

Britain's great admiral, Lord Mel
son, loved to display his many medals
and decorations on all possible oc-
casions, and knowing this, his SER
want always took the precaution to
hide them on days when their wear
ing was inappropriate if not danger
Gus. But on the morning of the battle
OF Trafalgar, the servant was unable
to adopt his ordinary precautions and
when the admiral appeared on the
quarterback a profusion of orders
and medals covered his breast. There
was no nHstaking the Admiral of the
British fleet. Whether or not this
was mark for the French gunners
who fired at him is not a matter of
certain history. Nevertheless his SER
want always maintained that had ne
only hidden his masters medals that
day Nelson's life would have been
spared.

Survey Finds 68 Pei.
OF Press in Favor
OF Conscription
Rise of 8 Pct. in Week
Reported by Analysis
Of Newspaper Opinion

sixty-eight per cent of the Amer
lean press favors compulsory mill
tary training, according to the
weekly Analysis of Newspaper
Opinion, for the week ending Au-
gust II, released yesterday by the
James S. Twohey Associates.
The previous weeks editorial ap-
proval showed go per cent in favor
of the compulsory training, the
analysis said, and added: The
opposition is breaking wide open
with portions of the press, which
have heretofore taken a strongly
disapproving stand, doing a COM
plete turn-about into approval and
other segments sliding from oppo-
sition into a -commital stand"
Fourteen per cent disapproved the
compulsory training and Is per cent
we're -commital, the analysis
said.
Other finding show that in direct
discussion of the battle OF Britain
only u per cent of the American
press are urging that United States
aid be rushed, "At the same time
an increasingly strong majority are
urging sale of destroyers to Britain
or are demanding that all possible
help be given that nation to defeat
Hitler, it said. Nineteen per cent
believe the sale of destroyers would
be an act of war and that the
United States Navy is inadequate
now" the analysis said.
Canada Defense Move Approved.
American negotiations with Can
ada and Britain are interpreted as
meaning the United States defenses
will be strengthened' and IAN over
whelming majority approves the
move" the analysis said, and added:
"Fifty-five per cent state or init
mate that proposals to exchange de-
stroyers for colonies would not be
viewed with diSfavor The large
majority takes an optimistic view
on the battle of Britain. Editorial
opinion seems to be taking de-
tached attitude toward an incredible
happening which simply cannot end
in defeat or disaster for Britain
The Hoover plan to feed famine
sufferers in Europe is praised as
having a humanitarian appeal, but
a very large majority turns thumbs
down on the idea as aiding Ger
many. However, 10 per cent favor
the proposal, it was said.

editorial attitudes were favorable,
