A NEW TYPE or
GLAMOUR GIRL

Mr.. Powers saws that this
Typical American Girl Is self
reliant and vivacious. She has .
flair for doing things. Without
these basic characteristics she
could not assume the natural, vi.
vacious look which illustrators
and advertisers are, almost with
out exception, demanding today.
Harry Conover, himself once
a model and now head of his own
agency, was equally emphatic
about the demise of the glamour
girl.
"Over IS percent of our APP

VINSON AND THE NAVY

This country has no more vigilant and
valiant champion of naval power than
Congressman Carl Vinson of Georgia, who
is now rounding out 10 years as chairman
of the House Naval Affairs Committee. He
has been the most active leader in getting
all naval expansion bills through Congress
since 1881.
Mr.. Wilson'S views on the necessity for
the strongest possible navy are set forth in
a recent article in the United States News,
and may be summarized as follows:
He believes that our first task is to aid
Britain, not merely to gain time to arm our
selves, but because joint control of the seas
with Britain is necessary if the Americans
are to be made safe from invasion. There
fore, his position may be summed up in a
single sentence: 1--WE can't afford to let
England lose"
He reasons that if Germany can take
over Britain and her navy, the Axis powers
will not only have a combined naval
strength much greater than ours, but will
have five times our shipbuilding capacity.
1t is significant he thinks, that Germany
has not done great damage to England's
shipyards, which seems to be evidence that
Hitler hopes to capture them intact, so as
to turn their productive capacity against US
or any other nation he desires to conquer.
With the shipyards of England and all
Europe under his control, Hitler could even
tually dominate the world, Mr.. Vinson be-
lieves, even if the present British Navy
should escape his grasp. And this IS some
thing for every American to think about

NOW IT'S UP TO THE COURTS

Sheriff Berlin Sawyer. in ordering the
arrest of one of the operators of pinball
machine ere'yesterday, made the obvious
and the sensible move.
The girl who was arrested has nothing
to do with the case, but by nabbing her, the
sheriff has made it possible for the courts
to decide once and for all whether the ma
chimes are to be operated here legally.
1t would be little difficult for the
average person to differentiate between. a
pinban machine and any other type Of
gambling device, but the fact remains that
there is question as to whether they can
be operated legally in Florida.
Thus the sheriff has been in position
recently where he could be accused of per-
hitting gambling machines to operate, or
where he could cause himself endless
trouble if he seized truckload of licensed
and legal equipment. Taking one as test
was good idea.
The point about pinball machines
debated in courts all over the cOuntry-is
whether they actually are games of skill,
or if they are games of chance, operated for
the sole purpose of gambling.
Actually, Of course, there is an element
of skill attached, but no one plays a pinball
machine for the pure love of displaying his
prOwess In the minds of most people, they
are gambling .nachines. and the window
dressing about the game of skill is so much
hokum.
The sheriff, nevertheless, is bound by
a set of rules and regulations, and he would
be taking elaborate pains to cause himself
a great deal of trouble if he didn't handle
the situation the way he has.

TOTO SAYS JAPS WILL PROCEED

General Hideki TOTO, new premier of
Japan, talks about ''immutable and ir-
revOcable policies" and says that the en-
pire stands ''solemnly on the national policy
it has reiterated time and again.
This ought to be plain enough for any
body to understand, in view of the Japanese
aggression against China and its alliance
with Germany and Italy. Nobody ought TO
be fooled, any longer. when the japanese
talk about diplomacy as a method of set
Ting international differences.
If there is anybody so supplemented,
we call their attention to the statement of
Premier TOTO. urging .'ever-expanding pro-
gression'' and declaring there is no re-
treat" He refers to 1Oo,OOO,O00 people,
merging into ''iron- solidarity with the
promise that nothing can stop us.
IF this state of preparedness is COM
pleted." says the japanese military leader,
now head of the nation, diplomacy viii be
an easy affair." and "wars can be fought
with ease"
He advises the people to leave to the
government the decision as to what course
Is TO be followed and assures them that If
fine Japanese move as one man, we need
NOT fear any enemy, however powerful.
