acratic party hold a convention"
and said the Republican convention
was a spontaneous act of God"
Mr. Erskine said if Mr.. Willkie
were elected he would consider us
his constituents and not his wards"
MY fear CT Mr. Willkie," retorted
Mr.. Stout, is that he won't regard
us either as wards of constituents
but as customers
1T depends on what you want"
continued Mr.. Stout. If what you
want is first class capital and labor
fracaS, Willkie is your man"
The "GObble, GObble" School.

ophy as a plea for the gobble,
gobbe school of economics" Mr..
Ernst declared 1T is o. K. by him
il an insurance company with 5
billion dollars grows to so billion
dollars.
Said Novelist Putnam:
Far too many women have seen
their own Self-reSpect and that OF
their men slowly deteriorating since
they have been pulled down to a
level of incompctents on a dole sys-
tenn which puts a premium on
competency"
MI Kingdom praised the President
for awakening America to its need
and uniting it for national defense.
Mr.. Kingdom and Mr.. Erskine then
debated the transfer of so destroyers
to England. Mr.. Kingdom contending
that the President was acting in his
capacity Of commander in chief of
the armed forces, constitutionally
according to the opinion of the At
torney General.
Author Kelland Agrees.
1T doesn't help a bit" replied Mr.
Erskine. Ito have his appointed At
torney General tell him he's right 3"
Agreeing, Mr.. Kelland said. He
shouldn't have based his decision
on the opinion of his own, private,
tame Attorney General
When Mr.. Kelland accused the
administration of obscuring the
third-term issue with red herrings.
Mr.. Kingdom said. Il think your talk
IS a little flshy, sir
And Mr.. Stout refused to argue
about the third term. declaring. It's
like Your wifes new hat Either
you like it or YOU don't
The debate, which took place on
the American Forum Of the Air"

 At Belfase Viscount Craigavon, prime minister of Northern Ireland, commented bitterly:
 "It has been evident all along that Fire, while accepting concession after concession from Britain, in- tended to give nothing in return. Amidst a war in which the British empire is fighting for existence, Fire clings to neutrality, even though by doing so it is creating difficulties for the one power to whom it owes its present immunity from attack by Germany. De Val- era's announcement marks the cul- minating point in a process whcih we in the north had foreseen for the last 40 years"

day, say that negotiations already have resulted in an agreement in principle under which an emergency defense decision might be taken by the three governments at short notice.
 It would not be surprising, in- formants added today, that if with out formal advance commitments, an understanding had been reached which in certain contingencies would make the entire Singapore and Aus tralian bases and facilities available to the United States battle fleet.
 Details Unavailable
 Authentic information of details were not available, but observers here asked whether British warships might enjoy reciprocal advantages at certain United States bases in the western Pacific.
 The American British Australian agreement in principle, informants said, had not been embodied in any formal document.
 For several weeks there had been B marked reluctance in government quarters here to give guidance on developments, due to a wish to avoid precipitation of the naval question into the election.
 With the election over, well in formed quarters said that negotia- tions already conducted had result ed in agreement in principle on the broad lines of Pacific defense col laboration.
 Students of Far Eastern affairs watched with interest the effect of the reported agreement on the de- velopment of current Russo-Japan- ese negotiations for better relations.
 It was believed that Russia and Japan would try to construct pact along lines which the United States would not regard as provocative or inimical to American interests. Ger many's reported efforts to align Russia unreservedly with the Ger man-Japanese-Italian alliance were beleived here to have failed al- ready.
 Russia, it was reported, has made 1t clear that she intends to con- tinue military and economic sup port of China.
 Nevertheless the prospective Rus sian-JapaneSe accord was expected here to contain imporant provisions, ranging from n-aggreSSion clauses to Russian recognition of Manchu- kuo, which Japan seized from China. and Japanese acknowledgement of Russian predominance in outer Mon goliaa nd Sinkiang province and a free zone for Russia at the port of Darien Manchukuo.
 It was believed here that the progress made in American British Australian talks might have the ef- feet of modifying Japanese policy in the South Seas, especially as re- gards any pressure on the Nether- lands East Indies to transfer to aviation gasoline,
 Progress made in the Pacific talks emphasized Britain's failure to in- duce Prime Minister Ramon eD Val- era, of Fire (Ireland) to cooperate in any way as regards the avail ability of Irish naval bases for the British fleet in its fight against German submarine warfare.
 Authoritative sources said that they were not surprised at DeVal- era's statement yesterday as re- garded his intention to maintain neutrality. But 1t was resisted that when in 1888 Britain agreed to
