Saturday Symposium

Dear Mr.. Hearst:
"lHERE Is one aspect Of the
present resistance against
the Germans inside France
which has not been noted. Yet II
deserves attention because Of the
Incidental lesson II holds for Amer
leans.
The resistance itself 1 regard as
tustlfied-the more of IL the bet
ter. There Is nothing more tragic
than a people which accepts
conquest lying down. But where
were these French saboteurs and
anti-Nazi heroes until a couple Of
months ago: Why were they so
supineIy quiet for n full year:
The answer IL clear and signifi-
cant. There can he no doubt that
the ma jor impetus for resistance
comes from the Communists In
that country. Nor IL there any
doubt that the movement was un-
Ioosed after June 22, the day when
Germany attacked Russia.
The picture therefore IL this:
Frenchmen who did not raise a
finger TO embarrass their conquer
ors for an entire year In behalf Of
their own country are now riskiDg
their lives I'm behalf Of Russia !.
! They may be French by nation
atty, they are Soviet Russian by
allegiance.
And there we have the crux of
the Communist problem In any
country, including America. II il
not a question Of their right a.
Americans to believe anything
they please. It's a question Of their
acceptance OF orders from for
eign dictatorship. We are not deal
Ing with a matter Of opinion but
with matter of allegiance.
Whether the Communist Zine"
Mt q given time happens TO coin
eide with American interests or
not Il q matter determined by far
off masters, on the basis OF Rus
sis's not Americas needs and
policies. Regardless OF what the
current '1ine" may be, the Commit
nists thus remain always and In
svitsbly a fifth column In our
midst.
While I was writing "The Red
Decade the story OF Communist
invasion In American life, the
Communist cline" for America

by edict from the kremlin. into a
war for democracy. What had hap
pened TO achieve this miracle?
Only this: Hitler doublecrossed his
erstwhile partner In the kremlin.
Here, as In France. the Commu-
nists are Soviet Russians first, last
and always.
"The Red Decade" has traced
the infiltration of their agents and
fellow travellers. their innocents
and stooges into every department
of our life: into government. lit

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.--In
the hope of preventing the COM
plete collapse of the Soviet armies
on the Russian western front, the
United States and Great Britain.
it was learned on high authority
today, have decided 70 divert TO
Russia practically all Of the Ameri-
can war supplies now en- route to
the Red Sea.
These supplies. originally in
tended for the British forces in
Africa and the Near East. include
hundreds of warplanes, tanks,
anti-tank guns, armored cars, anti
aircraft guns and munitions.
They are en- route to the Red
Sea aboard large fleet of Ameri-
can and British-operated merchant
ships along a sea route that is
being closely watched on this side
of the south Atlantic by American
warships and naval patrol planes
and by the British navy on the
African side.
RESHIP ACROSS IRAN
AS rapidly as the supplies reach
British terminal bases in the Red
Sea, they will be transshipped to
the Persian Gulf and across Iran
TO the Soviet Union.
1t is hoped that these supplies
will reach the Russian front in
time to prevent destruction of the
Soviet armies by the German mill
tary machine which is now be-
ginning to move rapidly.
If sufficient materials, such as
planes, tanks and anti-tank guns.
can be made available to the Rus
sian armies. it is believed they
may be. able to hold out this Win
ter even though they lose such
cities as Kiev, Leningrad and
Moscow.
PLENTY OF MEN
Despite the terrific losses In the
fighting along the western Rus
sian front. Russia Is thought TO
have plenty of manpower available
for requirements and reinforce
lments, providing they can be sup
piled with the implements OF
lmodern warfare.
The Soviets have made II plain
to this government and Great
Britain that men with rifles are
no match for tanks, armored cars
and Stuka dive bombers.
The decision to divert to Russia
practically all American aid TO the
British in North Africa has been
taken as a result Of repeated
urgent appeals from Moscow for
Increased aid. as well as the re-
ceipt of information indicating
that the Russians have been suf-
fering terrific losses in equipment.

BREAKDOWN BEGINS IN THE
 MOUTH

BREAKDOWN BEGINS IN THE
 MOUTH
 From long study and observation I am convinced that old age begins, for 8 great many individuals, in the mouth, when they are 15 years old, or 40 or 52-when they lose the use of tooth and try to limp along the rest of the short way of life without an efficient substitute, a denture which will maintain the important function of mastication unimpaired.
 But somehow I can't help believ- ing that the dentists themselves are to blame for the sad neglect of the teeth which is so characteristic of the middle class and the well-to- do in this country. Ths dentists are to blame, as it seen1r to me, be- cause they approve CT do not audi ply oppose the notion that "a clean tooth never decays" If people be- lieve this why squander their time and money messing around with dentists? Why visit dentist every six months to have the teeth in- spected, scaled. polished or repair ed? Any one who is qualified to have an opinion on the question of conservation of the teeth knows or should know that in this country

MAKEUP TRICKS
 ARE FOR PROFESSIONALS

"Only a professional makeup ex- pert can use different tones of foundation and powder on a face and hope to achieve good results Even he cannot do it if the make up is to be worn on the street in the daylight. If he does street makeup with light foundation and powder on the upper part of face and dark shades on the lower Sec- tion in an effort to make the jaw line less conspicuous, he'll only succeed in making the lower part look dirty in the sunlight"
 MT. Willis thinks that the shape of the face should be controlled by hats. necklines and hair.
 Wear the right necklines, real ly becoming hats ant coifure that is right for your features and you won't have to worry. about blending half a dozen shades of makeup on your face" the expert explains.
 Among Richard Willis other in- teresting theories are:
 Mascara should be used to tint the eyelasheS - not to make them conspicuous.
 Regardless of the shape of the face. rouge always should be blended on the cheek-bones away from the nose!
 You may need trifle more rouge under some artificial lighting than you do in the daytime, but, by and large the makeup which is per- feet for your skin by day will be perfect for it by night.
 You cannot paint on mouth larger than your own and hope to fool anyone into thinking your mouth is larger than it is.
 If your hair is fine, soft and silky, you never will be able to manage elaborate cultures. Just stop trying, and be content with simple ones."

How lovely that impossible old sofa becomes when you put bright new slip cover on it! And you can easily make, yourself, the smartest of slip covers.
 The exciting one in this picture is a rose and green print on ivory chintz. The seams are bound in dark green and the modish skirt has its pleats spaced at intervals.
 In making a cover the simple pin-on way, you start by smoothing the material down the inside-back and over the seat, width to each section. If you have definite pat tern, arrange in pretty Symmetri- cal effect.
 As you fit the fabric to the sofa, secure with pins every 3 inches, then trim each section as you fin- ish, leaving l 1-2 inches for seams. In the same way cover arms, sides, back and cushions. 7
 There! You've half finished! Now you simply baste the pieces to- gether, try on for final touches and sew. The flounce is last.
 Exact details of cutting and sewing this sip cover are described and diagramed i,l our 32-page book let. Also tells how to cover and trim different types of chairs. Tips on fabrics, colors.

it just can't be done without the regular care of the dentist.
 It is not so remarkable that peo- pie who live in dire poverty or squalor so frequently ignore loss of teeth or loss of the use of teeth in mastication, but as see 1t the dental profession is to blame for the astonishing neglect of the teeth or more particularly the function of the teeth by the middle and we'll to-do classes. One interested in the subject can hardly fail to notice how many such persons are>content to limp along for years with one or more teeth missing or so badly damaged that they are useless for mastication. These ill-advised per- sons assume that loss of back teeth does not show, and hence there is no need of bothering to have the missing teeth replaced by func- tionally efficient denture. Their dentists inadvertently encourage them to take that attitude.
 I believe that for every tooth lost by disease, accident or design and not immediately replaced by functionally efficient denture, one must subtract a year or two from ones life expectation. I have watched many and many a mis- guided person who did not take such serious view of the loss of few back teeth fading, slipping, de- clining from state of excellent health to sad, prematurely old and ailing invalid--and I blame the dentists for that, too.

So many readers have asked for detailed information that we print here official answers to their queS- tions. While you and your neigh bors drink your tea and knit for the soldiers and sailors, you can discuss this program and plan to put it into effect in your commun- ity.
 Surplus Is Used
 The distribution of farm Sur- pluses to the School Lunch Pro- gram is one method of surplus re- moval used by the Surplus Mar keting Administration of the De- partment of Agriculture, which donates the surplus foods to the state welfare agencies in all states.
 Teachers, social workers, or any organizations or individuals inter- ested in child welfare may assist in these programs. However, school lunohes are a community enter prise; and at the community level, sponsors usually merge their inter ests with school officials, public health authorities, civic and service groups.
 A school declared eligible to re- ceive surplus foods must be SUD- ported by funds derived from fed- eral, state CT local government sub divisions. Other schools supported by funds derived from educational, religious, or charitable organiza- tions may, at the discretion of state or local certifying agencies, be de- termined eligible.
 Program Is Flexible
 Plans for programs are very flex- ible and can be adapted to suit To- cal conditions. However, when sur- plus foods are used three provisions must be observed:
 l. That the program must op- crate on non-profit basis.
 ?. That children must not be segregated in any way to indicate a distinction between the paying and non-paying groups.
 3. That the quantity of food stuffs which has been, or might otherwise be, purchased will not be curtailed in the event that surplus foods are made available.

WOMAN,S REALM
GLOuting Yourself
By Alicia Hart
MA service staf Writer


 There's no reason for any woman to believe that the oval-shaped face is ideal and that if her own is square or round or any shape other than oval that she never can hope to be real beauty.
 This is the opinion of Richard Willis, who spent ten years putting makeup on motion picture stars and who now is a consultant on makeup to large radio audience and to pri- vate customers who want to learn once and for all where to put rouge, how to powder, what shades of cos metics to buy and. just as import antly, what not to buy for their par ticular types of skin.
 My favorite Hollywood faces are those of Katharine Hepburn, Lo- retta Young and Bette Davis" MT. Willis declared. "Of these, Miss Da- vis' face is the only one which comes anywhere near being oval. Miss Hepburn's is square. Miss Young's is long. Yet don't see how anyone in his right mind can say that he doesn't like Katharine Hep burns face because it is square or Loretta Young'S because it is long. There's real beauty in each"
 Having debunked in his cus- tomary fortnight fashion, the oval- face-is-the-ideal-face theory, Rich ard Willis goes on to say that it's hopeless for the amateur to try to change the shape of her face with makeup.
