THE DOLLARS SPENT
AT HOME WORK FOR US

A CLERK in market of our town
receives a dollar as part of his sal
airy. He spends it with the clothier
for a necktie. The clothier's clerk
gets it as a part of his salary. He
spends it for food at market The
owner of the market pays it to a
carpenter for store repairs. The
carpenter pays it to the lumber
dealer The lumber dealer pays it
to his truck driver and so on and on.
That dollar spent in our town may
pass through many hands, and
each person receiving it derives a
benefit.
Because of the dollars spent in
our town, our merchants and home
owners are able to pay taxes. With
the taxes they pay, we support our
town government, we maintain
schools for our children, we pave
and maintain our streets. 1t is the
dollars spent at home which make
our town a desirable place in which
to live.
The dollars spent outside our town
do not help in doing any of these
things. They do nothing toward
maintaining our property values.
These are things to think about
when we have dollars to spend.
HOW DICTATORS ARE BORN
ON MARCH %, 1888. the German
Reichstag gave Hitler the privilege
of making the laws of Germany for
four years. That made Hitler a die

four years the Reichstag could not
take back what it gave away IN 1888.

time" was in 1921 when the pretty
American girl from Syracuse
turned in her thesis for her decorate
OF letters, at the Sorbonne in Paris.
Her subject was 1.-THE Moral Ideas
In the Theater of Alexander Dumas
the Younger" The cheers were re-
sounding and international.
Miss Bonney previously had
romped through the University Of
California and had taken her mas
ter's degree at Harvard. European
bureaus of American newspapers
rushed girl reporters to Paris to
exton her beauty and her intelli-
gence. She did not disappoint them.
All the garlands of the Groves of
Academe we're hers, to say nothing
OF her flair for clothes. The least
the girls could figure for her was
the presidency of an American col
lege.
Today Is today, and in the
years in between Adolf Hitler
has brought about drastic revi-
sion Of moral ideas" in France
and elsewhere. And in these
years, Miss Bonney has had a
ringside seat at the apocalypse,
Just now the Vichy government
awards her the Croix de Guerre
for bravery and devotion" in
evacuating refugees during the
German invasion Of last year.
She needed no identification here,
as she had already gained fame, not
as an Intellectual but as photog-
rapher whose closeups of chaos are
official records in the Library of
Congress and in the French ar
chives. Last December, she re-
ceived grant from the Carnegie
foundation to return to France and
continue her pictorial record of the
war.
The hair-pin turn in her career
came just at the time women
were discarding hair-pins. In
Paris, she sold story to an
American newspaper. They
cabled for a picture. She had
trouble in getting it and decided
to put an end to such difficulties.
With her sister Louise and her
mother, in America, as partners
she organized "Bonney g. Co.,"
operating the international
Picture bureau" Lacking an
important picture, she bought a
camera and started shooting.
Her pictures were even bigger
success than her thesis. Baron
Mannerheim let her get into the
thick Of the fighting in Finland
and awarded her the White
Rose Of Finland.
Witty, dark-haired and vivacious,
she made friends and frequently
was click or two ahead of her
belch out of hell. She brought back
to the Library of Congress 200 pic
lures of the blitzkrieg.

Extended Draft
Gains in Senate

BY ROBERT a. McGILL

w SHIN TON, July 81
Backed by the non-interventionist
bloc, the new Taft substitute for
the administration bill to extend
the services Of selectees indef-
initely gained support in the
Senate today.
The measure. sponsored by
Senator Taft CR) of Ohio, in
creases the draftee training period
from II 10 1S months. and limits
the size of the army to 100000
men in peace time.
1t also provides a bonus of 5000
to each selectee, guardSman and
reservist who enliSts i'm the service
at the end of his training period.
Although support for the Taft

those chronic evil conditions.
Perhaps they also appre-
ciate the fact that this nation
progressed and profted most
when it Obeyed the Injunction
of its great founders and kept
free from foreign entangle-
ments, and that it has only
felt the need and urge for
surrender and submergence
and self-effacement since il
became involved through the
world war i'm foreign COM
plicatiOns and conflicts.
Let us hope that the silver
lining to our cloud of fear
and folly and faithlessness is
sterling silver patriotism and
not baSer metal, and that the
rising younger generations
will be better Americans than
the setting older ones, and
will save their glorious nation
from cowardly capitulation.
Your cOlumnist is i'm no way
respondent.
Account must be taken of
the effect of panic upon the
timid, and propaganda upon
the simple.
In the last analysis, when
reason has returned and con-
fidence has been restored, the
self respecting Americanism
of the nation will assay high
and pure.
