WASHINGTON. - Few American
ambassadors have been chosen be-
cause Of their philosophy. John Wi
nant, just taking over his new du-
ties as envoy to the Court Of st.
James, was.
Externally he is not the type to
wear knee brooches and genufiect to
royalty.
He is tall, Lincolnesque appear
ing. He is no orator. He has had
no previous diplomatic experience.
He is anything but the glass Of fash
ion, although he comes from a
wealthy New York family. He was
once Republican governor Of New
Hampshire. President Roosevelt
called him in to head the first social
security board. Later he was direc-
tor Of the international labor office
at Geneva.
Many persons In Washington will
tell you they cannot see why this
man was chosen for our most impor-
tant foreign diplomatic post. Within
limits 1t is anybody's guess. This is
mine:
Mr.. Roosevelt believes that Amer
lea is to play the dominating role
IN the peace that Is to come. He
believes that the democracies must
have as definite a program to offer
the bewildered and bleeding peoples
Of the earth as the totalitarians. Hit
Ter has named his. 1t is national So
cialism. Roosevelt has his-the
New Deal
IF Great Britain Wins.
II Great Britain wins the war, her
chosen representatives will dictate
the terms which will shape the new
world If they are to be persuaded to
do the job on the American plan
they must understand what that plan
is. Therefore, since the man whose
function it is to interpret the United
States to Great Britain in the pre-
peace days is our ambassador, he
must truly represent his President.
OF course all ambassadors are sup
posed to be the personal representa-
tives Of their head Of state but UNI
der these circumstances the Presi-
dents envoy extraordinary must be
man who Mr.. Roosevelt believes.
believes as he believes.
That is the reason the President
sent Harry Hopkins over in the fate

That in the nation there are
5000 900 wrecked cars in such

100000 are wrecked for scrap
each year. Each car Yields one
