the war is over After that there
is going to be the biggest political
turnover in history-and the turn
over probably will start next No
vember. as far as the House of
Representatives is concerned.
There is a similar sentiment in
regard to the British. Most people
feel toward the British as one fees
toward a cousin who is having a
tough time and gotten you into a
lot OF trouble but you have to stick
by him. In other words, the Ameri-
can people, as far as the MERRY
GO-ROUND could ascertain, will
fight for the British to the very
end, but reserve the right to cuss
them to the very end.
They know that the British have
got to win, just as they know that
Roosevelt has got to remain the
leader of this nation. But they are
looking for some very revolutionary
changes in the old British Empire
when this war is over.
And Of all Britishers, Churchill
seems almost the least popular The
south and midwest didn't particu-
larly like his nude bathing at Fort
Lauderdale, Fla after his Decem-
Der visit with Roosevelt; but much
more than that people think
Churchill exudes too much charm
and they suspect Roosevelt is taken
in by it.
However, despite all that, they
will plug along and plug hard for
both Roosevelt and Churchill On
ly they don't want to be pampered.
They don't want to be catered TO.
They don't want to be told any
thing but the truth And most Of
all they don't want to be called
complacent.
In brief the American people are
ready to take 1.-THE good and the
bad-and make the best OF it.

WHAT AGE VOLUNTEERS

Chief point of controversy during
the House Naval Affairs Committee
hearings on the bill to create a
women's auxiliary in the Naval
Reserve was the age limit of the
volunteers.
Representative Melvin Mas Of
Minnesota, author of the legisla-
ton, favored a minimum age OF
IT, but others, including Represen-
tative Joseph B. Shannon of Mis-
souri, disagreed.
Il think it would be wrong to
bring in women under 90" said
Shannon. This set off a clatter OF
opinions from other members, who
began talking at the same time, adj
vocating various ages from IS 70
IS.
Finally Committee chairman Carl
Vinson raped for order. Il like
IT, he said, which brought an
other uproar.
When quiet was restored, Unison
explained that he thought 20 years
was probably better age for the
girl volunteers, who will have to
drive motarcars and do other
strenuous jobs as well as office
work for the Navy.

strong in their private praise OF
him.
But the person in Washington
who probably knows Stain best is
the former Princess Mdivani, now
Mrs. Dennis Conan Doyle, daugh-
er-in-law of the famous English
mystery writer. Mrs. Doyle is a
Georgian, from South Russia, as
Stain is. Her family and his lived
not far from each other.
Il am a White Russian and a
refugee" says Mrs. Doyle, but I
can't help but admire Stains abil-
ity. People think he is complex
but that is because he is so simple
When he wants something he takes
the straightest line toward it, And
he knows what he wants. That is
his great strength.
He does not go in for speeches
He does not like ceremony. He is
simple and sincere. He is a yes or
no man"
Note Because his wife knew
Russia well, young Conan Doyle Of
fered to go to Russia for the Brit
ish Government in any capacity
But the staid old British Foreign
Office had the jitters-just as it did
when Sir Stafford Grips first went
to Russia on his own and was so
successful that the British later
had to appoint him Ambassador.

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
but do not compel"
THURSDAY, APRIL 80


On this last day of the month
adverse aspects dominate. There
is a promising sign for constructive
projects. Offensives by the United
States forces are well guided by
the stars.
HEART AND HOME: Many
households will migrate this year
when smaller dwelling places will
be bought. The stars warn that
the old servant problem will prac-
tically vanish together with many
other issues pertaining to the Am
erican mode of life. Women will
dispense with houSemaids and cooks
as they train themselves for double
duties at home and in shops or
offices. The simple mode of daily
life will appear difficult until labor
saving devices are mastered, the
seers warn, but they predict the
spread of expert knowledge in cook
ing. Science will guide the hands
that grasp the skillet and dish pan
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Finan-
ciers will meet new emergencies
next month. Portents of expansion
may be alarming to bankers and
business men but money puzzles
will be carefully studied in Wash
ington where there will be many
difficulties to be overcome. Sales
of stamps and bonds may fall off
from time to time but dollars will
flow into the United States Trea
sury in a steady stream that sus-
tains gigantic war projects, it is
prophesied.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Newspap-
ers and radios will call attention
to slackers who persist in maintain
ing the old way of pleasant living.
Full understanding of the meaning
of war will not permeate certain
minds until disaster is SO near that
it cannot be ignored. The national
spirit will be aflame in May when
even the least helpful persons will
feel the stir of true patriotism. As
| trologers explain that they do not
mean to discourage recreation but it
must be in the form of well-earned
rest, they declare.
INTERNATIONAL FAIRS:
Invasion will be attempted, in all
probability, the seers announce, but
they foresee the greatest dangers
at the Suez and the Panama canals
where sabotage may be disastrous.
Surprise tactics may be expected
as speed becomes desperately i'm
portant to the Japanese and the
Nazis The loss of a member of
the Allies is indicated or at least
lack of full cooperation is SEEM
ing donated in the stars. Critical
weeks confront the Allied Nations.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury OF a year of some good
luck mingled with worries or per-
plexities. Deception in love affairs
may disturb soldiers.
| Children born on this day may
be intense in nature and exceed
ingly talented. They must be taught
to discipline their emotions.

A Minority of Our Own
New York Times


If the United Nations win this the principle
of the worldwide legal equality of will have
to be recognized Since this is largely of ideas
and since racial equality before the law has become
one of the central ideas the democratic side we
can almost say that this principle in itself may be
the deciding factor The Chinese, the East Indians,
the numerous African peoples and many other groups
are our side, would be so if they complete
ly convinced that mean what say by equality
just unreservedy the Nazis what they say
by inequality.
But Americans cannot very well talk
vincingly of these terms unless prove SINGER
ity in our own country. Our largest recognizable
racial minority is the Negro, who constitutes nearly
10 percent OF population-assuming, is gen.
orally done, that a small fraction of Negro blood
makes woman Negro This newspaper
was glad to publish this week letter from William
H Baldwin president of the National Urban League,

Teapot Dome Is
Again in NelUs
Termed Scandal

CHICAGO-The Standard OIL Co. OF
Indiana and its subsidiaries must pay
tax deficiency of S4O9, 819.78 for 1880
under a decision by the United States
circuit court of appeals involving a
lease on Teapot dome lands in Wyo-
ming.
The decision upheld a board Of tax
appeals ruling that the company could
not deduct 1896, 484 as a bad debt in
its 1880 tax schedule.
The case involved the Mammoth Oil
Co., which in 1922 leased Teapot dome
lands. The same year the Standard Oil
& Gas Co., subsidiary Of the STAN
dard Oil Co., contracted for Nam
moths lands, and under the contract
obtained 1,430,024 barrels of crude oil
from Mammoth. the decision said.
The board of tax appeals held the
lease and a supplemental agreement
were executed by Mammoth fraudu-
lently.
After the government instituted It'll
cation in 1928 the Stanolind Co, in
settlement, paid $1,000, 484 The STAN
dard Oil Co., as the parent firm, listed
the amount as a bad debt because the
Co., which went into bank
ruptcy, could not pay Stanolind the
settlement figure.
The tax commission disallowed the
deduction claim on the ground the en-
tire Stanolind- Mammoth transaction
was fraudulent.

on MARKETING HoLnMG Irp

Motor fuel sales in the United States
in the first quarter of this year have
been about percent greater than in
the same period In 1871, according to
the U.SBM., while in Montana, sales
have dropped off about II percent. It
is expected that rationing Of tires
and gasoline will result in a IL per-
cent decline In motor fuel consump-
ton in the country in the second
quarter. The bureau expects crude de-
mand to be only percent below last
year during the second quarter. It
was 5.4 percent more, during the first
quarter.
