The secret of the remarkable
success of Nine. G. j. Walkers
preparations is in the fact that
they were blended by the late
Madam 9. j. Walker to reach
certain definite conditions Of the
hair, skin and scalp, and today,
after over thirty-fve years on

they are still in demand every

Cd HIme. G. y. Walkers Glossine,
although more than thirty-fve
years on the market, is still the

for this Is because it not only

ors whose names will remain I'M

les. Each book was sponsored by

AID TO BRITAIN AT ALL COSTS IN FACE OF ANY APPEASE-
 MENT GROUPS

Waterbury Democrat Editor:
 United States should advance credit under advisable security in order that Britain can maintain her policy of combating the aims of Axis international socialism. What we in the United States will have to guard against as time advances is the machinations of various groups who with winning express sions or actions will endeavor to attain an appeasement plan in order to bring about hostilities in Europe. These minority vociferous groups, hostile to any aid to Britain, all sailing under various pSeudonyms, and include Isolationists, peace re- gardleSS of price, conscientious ob- jectors, appeasers, and last but not least is the racial group with their ancestral hereditary hatred for the British for imaginary wrongs. Many are superficial, all acquired by false education. They twist the British lions tail and can be classed as dyed-in-the-wool fear that has de- yeloped chronic Anglophobia.
 We have many old line Americans who cannot forget the Battle of Bunker Hill, and vent their animo- sity by adhering to keep the Uinted States out of war. Many legislators, State and National, are past masters at the art of appeaSing their back home constituencies, especially if of the naturalized pursuasion. The weight and arguments are but of the moment and these groups are more of a nuisance, and do not form an essential bulwark against public opinion in the United States which is nearly overwhelmingly for full aid to Britain in various forms.
 It is apparent that the United

through conference of warning na- ton.
 "To scorn to use her good officer in the course of peace, to cease to search for ways of bringing the bel- hgerents to the conference table to ascertain their minimum peace term is to fall into the same mistake made by the diplomats of Europe the mistake of seeking to solve their problems by seeing which side could destroy more buildings and slaught- CT more of the. masses of the people who were not even consulted.
 "That spells the bankruptcy of statesmanship, the outlawry of req son and conscience, the enthrone- ment of might as the arbiter of right the negation of religion and the crucifixion of mankind"
