Aid for France and Spain

BY happy coincidence the same day
that witnessed presentation of Ad-
miral Leahy's credentials of ambas-
sadorial good will at Vichy brought
forth the announcement that the
American Red Cross is shortly send
ing to France a United States ship
loaded with condensed milk, chill
dren's clothes, vitamin concentrates
and medical supplies. The cargo will
be distributed in unoccupied France
strictly under Red Cross supervision.
1t is particularly gratifying to learn
that this aid to the most helpless
elements of stricken Frances popula-
ton became possible through CO.
operation of the British government,
which, responding to a personal re-
quest from President Roosevelt, will
let the relief consignment pass
through the blockade.
In addition to the benefits now to
be bestowed upon suffering French
children, Britain will allow the Red
Cross to ship a cargo of wheat or
flour and milk to Spain, to meet i'm
mediate civilian needs. Vichy and
Madrid have been notified that these
arrangements will be carried out as
soon as adequate assurances are in
hand that the Red Cross will be COM
pletely unhampered in handling and
distributing the proposed relief.
Britain presumably has approved
the program after satisfying herself
that it in no wise prejudices the pol
icy of absolute contraband control
and Of preventing sinews OF susten-
ance from reaching the enemy di-
rectly or indirectly. This is an emf
nently proper condition. Red Cross
Chairman Davis states that the Lon
don government "is glad under Ger
tain safeguards to collaborate in
plans OF relief having this particular
humanitarian end In view" Relief
for Spain, as in the case of the
French children, is the result Of
suggestion by President Roosevelt
and will be granted under similar
restrictions.
While heartily approving these
steps on behalf of French and Span
ish beneficiaries, Americans would be
further pleased to know that the
equally desperate wants Of Finland
are not being ignored. The plight Of
that gallant nation, amid harsh Arc
tic midwinter conditions, remains
extremely grave. Limited supplies
have trickled into Petsamo as the
result of sympathetic relaxation of
the British blockade. But in addi-
ton to the bottleneck which the
navicert system of red tape and de-
lay involves, there Is primary need
OF greater supplies and funds for
their acqui uisition. While ministering
to the requirements of French chill
dren and Spanish civilians, generous
America should not overlook the
enduring hardships of Finland. She
is neither an occupied nor a con-
quered country, so the danger of our
bounty succoring aggressors does not
apply to the little nation which .

itself against cruelty overwhelming

candy, and . few other little odds and
ends.
1t had worked, but 1t had been trial.
Ask somebody who has tried 1t.
Perhaps 1t should be stated that coffee,
TO Jones, meant coffee with plenty OF
cream in it.
His friends said he took cream with
. little coffee in it.
Coffee without heaps Of cream was
not coffee to T. Jones, Esq. He said,
and he meant it, that he would rather
not drink it at all unless it had as much
cream as he wanted in 1t. What is
worse than coffee the way you do not
like it, better than exactly the way you
like it?
Contemplating his improved silhouette,
and knowing his own better feelings,
1t again.
Never for me-" he said-and meant it.
So Christmas came, and a few days
afterward there was a parcel left at the
Jones home.
A package from Hawaii. Sent by
friends there. Jones was partial to
Hawaii, as many Americans are, even
though he had never seen it and never
expected to.
There was q thrill In parcel post
package from the Paradise of the
Pacific.
Eagerly the wrappings were taken of.
There lay four as neat pounds Of
coffee as Jones had even seen.
Kona coffee, to be exact, from the
famous Kona district Of Hawaii.
Jones book on Hawaii. written in
1880, said that coffee was the third
largest crop Of the islands, that 1t was
excellent coffee of mild, sweet flavor,
used extensively in blending, owing to
these qualities.
The book said that Kona coffee soon
would be marketed simply as Hawaiian
coffee.
Here it was the end of 1910. Maybe
the coffee factors" had not read the
book!
The coffee was brewed.
1t was all the book had said about It..
Remarkably mild and smooth, but with
a real coffee flavor.
Jones said he would take another cup.
Before the day was over, Templeton
Jones had drunk eight cups Of coffee.
the last four to hula tunes played on
his phoncgraph.
On New Year Day Jones weighed him
self.
He had gained four pounds.
Take it away" he said. I'VE will
give a pound Of it to the Smiths,
another pound to the Millers, third to
the Mulligans. I will never touch coffee
again, even Hawaiian coffee"
And then he sat down and had
another cup.
Evening star., 1941-01-09
THIS AND THAT
BIZ Charles =. Trdce,DeH.

This is the story Of how Templeton
Jones made q New Year resolution and
broke 1t on New Year Day.
Not every one caA do it.
1t takes a man of real will power to
give in to his own best motives, to break
. resolution no sooner than made just
because he wanted to.
That is Templeton Jones.
He had sworn of coffee. much TO the
regret of the entire household.
Coffee made him mellow. Whether 1t
made him intelligent, too. as was once
claimed for the brew, was matter to
which only Jones agreed.
He said 1t did.
His reason for giving up the drink was
typically Jonesian.
Lesser men without and within the
law might have said coffee was bad for
you because it kept you awake, or be-
cause 1t set your nerves on edge.
Not Jones,
His only kick against coffee was that
he used 50 much cream in 1t that 1t
made him fat
Demonstrably fat.
Right around his waist, to be horribly
exact.
year ago Templeton Jones did some
thing that few persons In this world OF
woe and tears-and fat-had been able
to do.
He had taken of 40 pounds.
Nine inches Of 1t, to be precise, prac-
tically all of it from around his middle.
When he came out In new suit three
sizes smaller than his want, all his ONCE
associates wanted to know who's the
girl"
Associates are often terribly at sea,
always putting the wrong motives on
things, and never giving q fellow credit
where it belongs.
In this case Jones knew that will power
was the solution.
not drink 1t at all unless it had as much
as you want to eat.
Then when you have done it, and
have really reduced to a point where
you "can wear clothes again" 1t is
hard to have ones friends ascribe the
wrong motive for the laudable deed
Jones simply had grown tired of feeling
like sack of potatoes around the waist
No one could believe how free and
easy he felt afterward.
Now coffee cream, he always said, was
the culprit.
Just pure fat, which he did not need,
so 1t was piled up around his stomach
Many persons know how 1t Is Others
who do not grow fat do not know how
1t is. Fortunately for them, they will
never know. So let them shut up.
Jones knew. He had triumphed. He
had cut out the cream, and the cake,
and the pie, and the bread, and the
