Her Viewpoint
II think Dutch treats are bad
in every way. particularly now.
Fighting men must preserve
their morale, and nothing tears
down male morale quicker than
an exhibition of female indie
pendence.
mo real man wants to go
Dutch treat The suggestion
nearly always comes from the
girl.
True. many girls have more
money than their escorts these
days. But they should not dis
play that fact by robbing a man
of his self-respect, his greatest
asset. How can man feel big
il his ego is damaged by his
girl friend, sweetheart or even
wife showing her independence?
Better a couple of malts at
the corner drugstore and a walk
in the moonlight than the most
expensive night spot with all
the trimmings-on the girls
money.
From time immemorial there
has been definite financial bal
ance between men and women.
We must preserve it. II is a
perilous thing 10 trifle with an
cestral traditions
Pure Nonsense
That's a delightful and SYM
pathetic letter. Ruth May, and
will doubtless boost the ego of
many Debated male. But, in
all friendliness, / think it has
about as much place in our 1912
world as powdered wigs and
pantalettes.
Not that I object TO any Big
Boy squandering his surplus
cash. But the notion that he'll
become spiritually bankrupt if
the Little Girl pays for her
share Of the hot dogs, seems to
me pure piffle.
A social order which founded
on the theory of male domi-
nance and female dependence is
neither natural nor beautiful,
healthy nor happy.
Masculine Conceit
There's nothing new about
girl welders and girl aviators.
Women may be handling new
tools today. but they put in as
long and husky hours over the
washboari, cradle and bread
bowl 1000 years ago. Normal.
self-respecting females have al
ways paid their share, often far
more than their share, in the
human program.
This magnificent male ges-
ture OF paying their way in pub
lie was just a masculine conceit.
The man whose morale can
be shattered because the girl
friend buys her own movie
ticket doesn't belong on any
deck or in any tank.
He has no place in real life
but should be carefully pre-
served in a basinette with a
rubber teething ring. Such a
man can't defend himself much
less his country.
He'll pay Highland always
has-for his fat-headed fantasy.
Every lazy, scheming, whining
little wench will take advantage
of him. Real women will pity
and despise him, knowing how
much he is missing when he
passes up honest companionship.
The Dutch treat plan is just
one more sign Of their crusad-
ing, one more effort to estab-
lish real equality, and break
down the false barriers. And
I'm all for it! Now it's your
turn. So bring on your SMELL
ing salts and brickbats-we're
ready!

around Krasnodar, in the Northwest

region has been steady, but the Ger
mans and their colleagues are still out

make the Caucasus an attractive bit OF
territory. The Maikop oil field fell to
the invaders, but the Russians had de-
stroyed the wells. So long as the Ger

But the vitalizing drive and energy be-
hind the planes and the pilots remains
Gen. Fierro himself. He has 5000 f1v-

averse to putting on overalls in the re-
pair shops and overhauling his own
plane.
Slight Of stature, Gen Fierro wears his
uniform with dash, and is brisk in move
ment, alert in manner.
He was born in Guerrero City, Chi
huahua State, in Northern Mexico. on
June 7, 1897. Before entering the armv
IN 1877 at the age of 20, he worked as
mechanic, an interest that led him

Essence Of Democracy.
Mingled strangely in the regal setting
and the long line of those decorated and
those who looked on there was sense
that here was the sheer essence of de-
mocracy. There was the coloners lady
and Judy O'Grady. Among those smiling
and some half fearful faces there was
the squalor of Limehouse, the haughti-
ness OF Park lane, the namboyance OF
the West End, the bureaucracy of White
hall, the provincialism of the English
counties, the sweat and toll Of the water
'front.' the brawniness of Wales, the vir-
ility of Scotland, there was the stanch-
ness of seafaring men, the earthiness OF
men who work in the fields.
1t was all blended, one sensed, in 4
brotherhood of dependency on one an
other. At the bottom was the inescap-
able feeling that these people were
fighting for something worth saving,
worth dying for.
When it was over, the King still ap-
parently fresh, stood at attention while
we all rose again for God Save the

swung open and he stepped back into

could see vista of fine green ground

He strode swiftly out of sight. Probably

The Farmers Union has 100 900 family
members and In afaliated co-operatives
are another 100000 farm families. The
Farm Bureau Federation has member
ship OF half million families. But
there are indications Of schism within
the federation's ranks.
Those who foresee new alignment
believe that important elements may
split off from the Farm Bureau to- join
with the Farmers Union. Mr.. O'Neal
laughs. He says there is no important
opposition among his membership nor
among farmers in general.
Bucking the Farm Bureau Federation
means bucking an organization that is
at the very center of American agricul-
ture. Its growth was encouraged by the
Government during the last war to in
crease food production. In six States,
including several of the leading farm
States of the Middle West, counties that
have not enrolled certain proportion
of all farmers are not entitled to

Churchill, Prime Minister of Great Brit
