now remain.

NEW LONDON, Conn, March IT..
Like her father, Henry A. Wallace,
Vice President of the United States,
Jean B. Wallace, vice president of
her sophomore class at Connecticut
College, is interesting herself in
Latin America this term.
While she continues to major in
art and hopes to become an illustra-
tor of children's books, the war and
a need for a better understanding
of the culture of the republics to
the south have caused her to take up
the study of Spanish in whole
hearted fashion.
In doing so, she is following in
the footsteps of her father, who
began a study of the language last
summer and, in December, was
President Roosevelt's special ambas-
sador to the inauguration of Manuel
Avila Camacho in Mexico City.
Poodle Favorite Pet.
Jean, the Vice Presidents only
daughter, is "Wally" to her init
mates, she's friendly and active;
likes parties and social activities
but prefers out-of-door frolics-
picnics, riding parties, skiing, skat-
ing and tennis.
She looks like the kind of a girl
who should be surrounded by horses
and dogs. AS a matter of fact, any
kind of dog is her pet, but her
favorite pup is her own 9-month- old
black French poodle, Brutus. She
even plans her summer vacations
to be in place where her dogs
will be happy. In the spring she
intends to visit her family in WASH
ington and spend a lot of time horse
back riding.
Jean takes her sketching seriously
and does well with it. Her favorite
attire is a tweed skirt and pastel
sweater, while argyle socks of gay
hue and moccasins are her chosen
footwear.
Active in Social Study.
As one of her extra-curricular
activities, she plays a prominent part
in the student industrial group, an
organization devoted to bringing
together the students and girls en-
ployed in local industries for dis
cussion of social and economic
problems
With other college girls, she is
member of special committee of
the industrial group, which has been
studying housing conditions in this
lively seaport. On completion Of
their work, the girls plan to offer to
the State Legislature suggestions for
better living conditions.
In her leisure, Jean does a lot of

Wi||kie CONSIDERING
Speaking Tour 10
Answer Wheeler
Would Deliver 'RebuttoI'
IF Montunun 'Crusudes'
Against Foreign Policy
BY the Associated Press.

Wendell L. Willkie, determined to
fight against what he considers
American 'isolationism," is thinking
of following Senator Wheeler from
city to city if the Montana Demo-
crat conducts a countrywide speak
ing campaign in opposition to ad-
ministration foreign policy.
Senator Wheeler has said he would
travel from Boston to San Fran
CISCO to speak against American
involvement in war and against the
administrator conduct of foreign
policy. He has predicted that other
Senators would join him in such
crusade" as he terms it.
Friends of Mr.. Willkie said today
that if Senator Wheeler and like
minded colleagues should make such
a campaign, the 1910 Republican
presidential nominee would like to
speak in rebuttal.'
Crystalized Policy Favored.
Mr. Willkie, it was said, would like
to arrange his personal acairs so
that he could travel a few days be-
hind the Senate cppositionists and
address meetings in every city where
they had appeared
It was said authoritatively that
Mr.. Willkie believes American for
eign policy should be crystalized on
the idea that the United States can
not isolate itself from the rest of
the world. Such a policy, he was
reported to believe, should be fixed
finally and definitely so that all
other nations would know where this
country stands for 10 or 20 or 100
years to come.
Mr. Willkie, who recently made a
flying survey trip to Great Britain,
was quoted as saying that after the
present war the capital of the world
will be either Washington or Berlin
and I want it to be Washington"
Strong Backing Seen.
Associates added that the former
standard bearer believed sentiment
in the country was much more
strongly behind the aid-to- Britain
program that was demonstrated by
the approximate two-to-one con-
gressional majority for the admin
istration's lease-lend legislation.
Mr.. Willkie listened to President
Roosevelt's speech before the White
House Correspondents Association
Saturday night and commented IA
vorably afterward. He exchanged a
few pleasant words with the Presi-
dent when the latter left the ban
quet, and the two were reported to
have voiced new agreement that all
possible aid should be given Great
Britain.

Three Parts of Gall
(New York T'imes)

(New York Times)
 All gall is divided into three parts-Nazism, Fascism and Communism. Nazism is the strongest of the three, and the most transparent Fascism is the weakest and the most likely to die first. Con- munism, wearing the disguise of nternationalism, has the greatest sway ideologicaly Each is dis tinguished by utter disregard of laws, national or international Each imposes it's will by force Each is committed to the leader prncple-Hitler, Mus soni, Stalin.
 The chief principle underlying the actions of these leaders that principles dangerous. Their law is that of the jungle The connecting tie be- tween them is gall, the larger honor among thieves Each addresses on-members of the aggressor' fra ternity in the language of learned gunman. If two or more non-aggressors threaten to aid each other against of the marauders, all of them join in applying pressure. Russia cold-shoulders Bulgaria and prods Turkey Japan harries French Indo-C China and the Netherlands Indies Italy looks darky at Yugoslavia for whatever effect that may have Ger many holds club over Greece.
 The language of these Axis Powers ceases to have any meaning except threat. Russia with a straight face could assert that tiny Finland aimed to the country. Germany could charge Czechosovakia with aggression. Italy could accuse Greece. Japan accuse the United States Every action of the Axis Powers falls into the stock-in- trade category of the bandit who lives by his wits day to day.

we think such tax would prove equally unsatis- factory The experience of the various States is that this tax never produces anywhere near the revenue anticipated Expenditures made on the basis of anticipated revenues from cigarette taxa ton result in deficits and further fiscal headaches factual survey of the various States which have from time to time tried the cigarette tax shows collection of less than third than estimated, extremely high collection and enforcement cost and almost no net to the treasury
 The immediate result in all States-and this is surprising in view of the generally held opinion that smokers would not give up this little luxury just for the sake of saving few pennies been decrease of from 20 to high 50 percent in cigarette sales Much of this represents tax evasion leak which no State has ever found way to plug In the States of course of this represents per- sonal purchases from bordering States In Alaska it would mean mail order buying and the creation of numerous new regular patrons for the mail order houses with resultant disastrous effects upon our home merchants.
 Parcel post deliveries of tax-free cigarettes are protected by the interstate clause of the U S. Constitution. No law we might place on our books could interfere with the right of any Alaskan to import his tax-free cigarettes from mail order houses
 We can't think of much which could be said in favor of this particular nuisance tax, but we do know that it has invariably proven unpopular, i'm practicable, uncollectible, disappointment a revenue producer and destructive of the business of home merchants.
