|G. G.O.P.LEADERS. FACE SHOWDOWN
Senator Danaher Expected to Clash With Supporters
 of Presidents Policies

The lone-awaited showdown on the foreign policy stand to be taken by Connecticut Republicans is scheduled for Dec. 10 ct Hartford, when opponents and proponents of aIi isolatiorist policy engage in an Ion the record" discussion. The chief spokesman, for isolation will be Q. s. Senator John A. Danaher, who has lost the support of many Re- publicans because of his stand on foreign affairs. Ready to urge full endorsement of the adlninistration,s foreign policy will be ex-0ov. Ray. Elond D. Baldwin and ex-Mayof Patterson of Hartford, the latter an ardent interventionist.
 A poll of typical G. Q. P, leaders by the Hartford Times yesterday indicated that Senator Danahcr will find himself in . small minority when he attacks the Roosevelt for- eign program. General endorse. nent of the Presidents program was gicen by most leaders Ques- toned.
 Ex-Gov. Baldwin and State Chairman ]. Kenneth Bradley were early packers of Wendell L. Willkie, 1t will be remembered, and they have followed his lead in urging that the national party organiza- : ton support the administration,s s policy. Only a few days ago Mir. Bradley, in . letter to National Chairman Joseph w. Martin, Jr., called for c definite national pro- gram for the party, declaring al present the c. Q. P. is losing popu- lar support by it's drifting.
 A rebuR to Senator Danafer by the Republican state central conn lnittee might possibly lead the iun- Tor senator to come out openly for the election of Edward J. Ryan, in- dependent candidate for Congress in the fifth district. Rya nwill cam paign on an "anti-war" platform and shares many of Senator Dana hers views.

Elizabeth Arden are big shots in cosmetics, but the Agrazilians make their own clothes and shoes. There have been an American fashion show, done by alluring models, and Q British fashion show.
 Neither left any lasting imprint. As some Brazilians view the shows, they thought the American exhibit- ion emphasized the models, which they couldn't buy, and the British emphasized the English fa- brics which they knew about any. how.
 American cars, of course, are everywhere. You can get run over by any model you like of General Motors, Chrysler or Ford within any city block. Some time back there were quite Q number of dea-sized low-priced German cars buzzing around, but they have worn out. That point, too, is one of the bright spots in the air line situation.
