FARMERS CAN DISPOSE
OF SCRAP METAL

Farmers of the Northwest are
going to have an easy way to
dispose of their scrap metal for
cash and at the same time help
the nations war effort.
The Northwest Country Eleva-
tor association will do all the
work. All the farmer will have
to do is to dig up the scrap iron,
steel, brass, copper, aluminium
or other metal that he is no
longer using.
This is how the plan will
work:
Scrap metal will be brought
to the nearest of the aSsocia-
tons 1900 grain elevators in
Minnesota, North and South Da-
kota or Montana.
The elevator man will weigh
the metal. He will give the far
mel a notation acknowledging
receipt of a certain number OF
pounds.
When a sufficient amount of
metal has been assembled it
WILL De SOlQ. LIE IIloCdl
sing company agent will do the
grading. The amount received
for the metal will then be pro-
rated to the farmers on a
pound-by-pound basis.
Elevator companies will sell
the metal to local scrap dealers.
There will be no charge to the
farmers for receiving, storing or
weighing the scrap at the ele-
vatorS.
Announcement of the plan
was made by H. I. Mcmillan.
president, and L. c. Webster,
secretary of the association. The
suggested plan of collection will
be worked out in cooperation
with the local salvage commit
ties established by the local
Civilian Defense Councils.

we'll do it by radio, perhaps in
two or three talks"
Before he went abroad he
promised to return in plenty of
time to take part in the elec-
tion campaign, with the added
assertion that he certainly would
have some political views to ex-
press.
One point on which politi-
clans agree is that Mr.. Willkie
is one of the few political speak
ers who can attract a maximum
radio audience, and for this rea-
son alone his speeches are bound
to have important political i'm
plications.
The first Washington reaction
to Mr.. Wilkes outspoken criti-
cisms of the war effort in Mos
COW and Chungking was that he
had overstepped himself, and
that his statements had not been
well received either abroad or
at home. This viewpoint has
changed.
Reports from correspondents
over the country declare Mr..
Wilkes swift world tour has
caught the national Imagination
to wide degree. Further. these
reports say the very fact that
Mr.. WILKES statements in favor
Of an immediate Allied offensive
and against Far Eastern i'm
peralism annoyed the British has
made these pronouncements
more popular at home.
Popularity Seen High.
All in all, there are substantial
grounds for believing that Mr..
Willkie stands higher in the es-
timation Of the American people
today than at any other time
since the period Immediately
following his nomination for
President in 1910.
Wherefore the opinion that
whatever he says and does in
the next two and a half weeks
will be weighted with important
political consequences. And he
never has been given to pulling
his punches.
The Republicans are we'll
pleased with the election outlook.
All recent public opinion polls
have shown their prospects on
the upgrade. They are concerned
chiefly lest Mr.. Willkie do some
thing that would check or re-
verse this trend.
He has expressed repeatedly
his scorn for the majority of
Republican Senators and Repre-
sentatives who were isolationists

I'D Rather Be Rioht'-
Our Foreign Policy Viewed as Pursuing Events
And Never Quite Catching Up With Them

moot; we did nothing with them
until they were gone.
We tell Argentina and Chile that
we don't like Axis agents in this
hemisphere, but we tolerate agents
of three Axis countries, Spain,
Vichy- France and Finland, in our
own Capital. They can hear the
gossip, read our press, including
technical journals, carefully; then
send the dirt to Hitler in a few
hours via diplomatic messages to
their own countries.
Some time, when a scandal de-
velops in this field, we shall un-
doubtedly act; but we are without
q policy for preventing scandals.
Dynamic Policy Needed.
We are slow and sullen about
completing the choosing of sides.
The war is gradually clarifying the
picture. but it is our duty to act
first and clarity the war. =:
Yet when, belatedly, under the
spur Of danger, we do stumble in
the right direction, results are good.
China's gratitude makes US catch
our breath and realize anew what
prompter generosity on our part
might do to the spirits OF men
around the world. Argentina and
Chile begin to debate their neu-
trality afresh; we have given argu-
ments to our friends down below;
we have forced men on the wrong
side to be more positively, more
noisily, wrong.
Why not precipitate these strug-
giles eagerly, enthusiastically, every
where? They are the life of our
age.
But, instead, our foreign policy
runs after events and never quite
catches up. 1t is actually foreign
policy limited by the enemy, for it
stands still, contentedly, whenever
he does. 1t is not very sensitive,
even as a recording device; it still
does not tell the full story of the
roles of Madrid, Vichy and Helsinki
in this war. Some of us think the
time has come for a foreign policy
that makes things happen, replac-
ing one that is rather like a year.
old newspaper read through a
smoked glass.
Evening star., 1942-10-15
BY SAMUEL GRAFTON.

The choosing of sides: Our for
eign policy is beginning to change.
No question of it. Our relations
with Vichy and Helsinki are deteri-
Grating in gratifying fashion. Soon,
let us hope, they will be very bad,
indeed.
At the same time, we have
warmed up our connection with
China. We have sent a wave of
jolliflcation through that country
by offering, in common with Eng
land, to end our century-old extra
territorial privileges, which were
dedicated to the proposition that
when the white man goes visiting
in Asia he brings not only his bath
tubs and his dinner clothes, but his
own courts, too: the ultimate in
luxurious travel.
simultaneously, our relations with
the only two neutrals in the hemi-
sphere, Argentina and Chile, grow
worse. This is inevitable, precisely
as inevitable as our warmer feeling
for China.
1t is silly to blame 1t on Sumner
Welles, for the speech in which he
criticized two countries" for let
ting Axis agents operate on their
soil. The war made Mr.. Welles
make that speech. The war is max
ing all these realignments. Mr..
Welles has next to nothing to do
with them. He doesn't want to
break with any country; he has
proved, elaborately, that he can
stand almost anybody.
Still Choosing Up Sides.
So, things are clearing up. The
interminable choosing of sides,
which began 10 years ago, is still
going on. 1t is an incomplete proc
ess, but it Is nearing the end.
The big trouble is that we are
not making it happen; it is hap
pening to us. 1t is still too slow.
Actually, as has been true for 10
years, we have no foreign policy.
Our diplomacy is not an arrow,
pointing anywhere; it is a cork
floating on a murky sea, revealing
the direction OF currents after they
have moved.
We never do 1t gladly, and in
time. Our increasing hostility to
Pierre Laval is merely an indicator
Of the number of Laval's appalling
new crimes on behalf of Fascism. We
never said to ourselves: This low
fellow is sure to behave thus-and-
so; let us complicate his task by
breaking with him, and encouraging
the French people to rise against
him"
So with extraterritoriality in
China. 1t is not important that we
waited 100 years. What is impor-
tant, is that we never really did it
on our own motion at all; we, waited
until Japan had seized the coastal
areas in which these privileges ex-
listed, and thus made our privileges
