look for agreement was anything but bright.
 All that day, into the night, again all Sunday the mediators wrestled with the two groups. Sunday the elevators shut down, conferees climbed five flights to resume deliberations. Angry shouts occasionally punctuated the pro- ceedings.
 Then, suddenly, at p. m. there was a loud burst of laugh ter, and 15 minutes later every one was bcaming. An agreement had been reached.
 Actually the peace accord came about 6:30 p. m. at which time Eugene Meyer, publisher of The Washington Post and one of the mediators, drafted a resolution commenting William H. Davis, chairman of the mediators, for his exceptional leadership. Meyer showed the proposal to the com pany officials and they approved 1t. He then put 1t up the union men.
 Did the company officers ac- cept the resolution in toto?" in- quired Ed Hall, international rep- resentative of the union.
 "Well, practically" said Meyer. "They quibbled over one word."
 It was this statement that brought the burst of laughter, in which Allis-C Chalmers officials joined. Both sides recalled that quibbling over words had charac- terized most of the two days ne- gotiating.
 NOTE t--- Striking illustration of goodwill after the agreement &C., cured when the union men had to charter a plane from Washing ton to Milwaukee in order to get the agreement ratified by strik- CTS Monday morning. So union leaders offered to take the com pany officials home at the same time. IVY gn

Jugoslav army always planned to evacuate that area immediately If Its own counter-attack were rolled back. This part of the country Croatia and Slovenia-once under the Austro- Hungarian empire, consists of broad. rolling plains, among the most fertile in Europe, and similar to the corn belt Of Iowa and Kansas.
 Tn this section, the Jugoslav general staff did not even build pill boxes; and before the war started, the bulk of the army was evacuated south except for skele- ton force to fight a rear-guard &C., ton or stage 8 lightning raid on Hungary.
 But in Serbia proper, which is in the south, the army worked feverishly to strengthen fortifica- tions along the Bulgarian border. The Greeks also were extremely active.
 Chief allied worry was that the UEVVhS WUAAU WC kUkCCW w Aa6H" on two fronts, and with a much

 Another part of Jugoslavia to watch is Montenegro and along the Albanian frontier. For years, Serbian officers have been itching to march as victors down to the Adriatic.

FOOD PURvEYORS ARE DOING THEIR BIT FOR NATIONAL
 DEFENSE,

Waterbury, Conn.
 April 11th, l94l. Editor Waterbury Democrat:
 May I rise and offer standing vote of thanks to the food people who are giving us the vitamns and minerals which the government says will help us maintain our health as a nation in these trying days? I read in your paper recently what Dr.. Wilder of the Mayo Clinic said about a population receiving a diet fully adequate in vitamins, minerals and other nutritive es- sentials being better able to with stand the stress of war or whatever we have in store for us. Thank good- ness we have in this country such public spirited people as those big baking concerns, such as Bond which I've seen advertises enriched bread in your paper, that are adding vitamins to our everyday food. Per- sonally, I think they're doing as much toward national defense as anybody else. Thank you for letting me speak my piece. ~
 Sincerely Yours.

The death of Christ on the cross marked turning point in the story of mankind. The current of human life had been running in one di- rection for centuries; with the death of Christ, the whole flow of human sentiment and purpose be- gan to flow in another direction. An old order, an ancient spiritual economy, came to an end on that dreadful evening when the mob which had gone to Calvary with shouts of joy because they were to witness crucifixion, came back to the city beating their breasts. They were tragic heralds of the astound- ing news that an old order had come to an end.
 What they did not know then, and what even the disciples them selves did not realize, was that in His attempt to redeem the world God works with the world as He finds 1t. The material He had to work with was pain and suffering. So through pain, suffering, injus- tices and evil. He worked for the transformation of mems souls and the establishing of peace in their hearts.
 The cross bears witness to the fact that God can use even mems wickedness for the advancement Of His righteous ends.
