BUTTON SHORTAGE

tNevada State JournaD
The call of "Button button. who's got
the button?' may arouse in some per-
sons a nostalgia longing for childhood
days and childhood games. but to many
a housewife in Canada and probably in
this country eventually, it will mean dig
ing up that almost forgotten relic of by
gone dayS-the button basket.
For now it seems that there will be
something OF a shortage of buttons 1t
will be difficult to obtain all those Wierd
creations of fantastic colol's. Today
many buttons are made Of bakelite. and
t. make bakelitv requires formaidehyde
and resin, both of which are needed in
war industries so. the choice To bc made
between buttons and bombs naturally
leaves only one observation-disclosures
There was time, and not too far past
TO remember, when miladv could have
as many as 600 color tones III buttons.
Now she'll be counting herself very for

TWO BIRTHDAYS

civilian Allen Nhlte)
1t was on a winter day late IN Decem-
Der, 1923, Woodrow Wilson'S birthday.
Someone in Washington thought of eel
ebrating the day and hired Il band to go
out to Wilson'S house.
He came to his front door and greeted
the few hundred friends who gathered
there and uttered this prophecy:
Il am not one Of those who have the
least anxiety about the triumph of the
principles | have stood Tor have seen
fools resist providence before and | have
seen their destruction as well come upon
them again-uttar destruction and con-
tempt. That We shall prevail is as sure
as that God reignS.
Well, here we are again. Within the
next six months or two Years the United
States shall have to face the question:
Shall w WithdraW from the world, iso-
late ourselves and see iniustices grow in
international relations that again lead
inevitably to war? Or, on the other hand,
shall we take part in world affairs?
In 1923 Wilson had the faith to cry
out to the people who had scorned his
plea.
That was in December, 1923, on his
9th birthday. Seven years from now,
Franklin Roosevelt will be g.
How will he meet that birthday in 1919?

Churchill Hints
At More Changes

Chang Kai-shek, Chiaas leader,
had accepted an invitation to join
the Allied Pacific war council
OF the changes, ne said it was
only right that the government
should have been changed and REIN
vigorated after two years in office.
He asked for a certain amoun.
of time in which to submit a scheme
Of postwar reconstruction.
He explained that the need for
reducing the size of the war cabi-
net had led to the elimination OF
the po Of minister without port
folio which Arthur Greenwood, a
labor party leader, had held. Green

had been critici2edD

FEWER SPEECHES?


He recalled that Churchill in the
course of his career as prime min
ister had made 25 long speeches
in public and secret and would re-
main at the services of the house
from time to time, to give it a
general appreciation of the wars
progress.
This was a hint chat the prime
minister would leave a consider
able part of the work of speaking
in commons to Sir Stafford CrippS
his new leader of the houseD
However tempting it may be at
some time when trouble lies ahead
to step aside and let someone else
take the heavy and repeated blows
that are coming Churchill does not
intend to adopt that coWardly
course he said.
