coIIy, with the generals and the 3D.

The controve came more
promptly than most had expected. Mr..
Davis had not even had time to accom-
pIsh administrative revisions before
the trio of eight Maj soboteurs began
before special miItory commission
appointed by the President and head
ed by Maj. -Gen. Frank R. Mccoy
Original detailed publicity on the
capture Of these submorine-borne enc
mics was broadcast, fooishIy, we be-
|ieve, by FIJI Director }. Edgar Hoover.
Before the trial commenced Mr..
Davis promised newsPopermen he
would make available dolly censored
report on proceedings, including as
many focts as would not be Of aid to
the enemy.
But General Mccoy, presumably
with the approval of his fellow officers
on the commission, arbitrarily, CURLY
in foct, very unciviIIy-snubbed Mr.
Davis and ignored Attorney General
BiddIe.
Thus the issue was joined.
One condition under which Mr..
Davis took the Job was that Army and
Navy publicity should foil within his
Jurisdiction. The presidential order
made thot clear.
Now we must wait and see wheth-
er President Roosevelt is going to sup
port Mr. Davis, and kick the high
horses out from under the brass hats,
or whether the military is superior to
the civil authority.
This is no mere technoolity One

BRITAIN'S POSTWAR TRADE

u
the future and see Just how British
trode or American trade or that OF any
other country will function under new,
as vet undetermined conditions. The
British Boord Of Trode, however, has
APPOINTED q committee OF industrial
lists to consider the future OF British
exports. Study is necessary in the in
terests alike Of Britain, her customers,
and those with whom she must Coop
erote if world trade is to be set on
rational bosis.
Britain during the Lost century has
been more dependent on her export
trode than any other great country in
the world. With her small area and her
great population she cannot both pro-
duce primary commodities on q sutt'-
Gent scale and be q manufacturing
country. If her standard Of living is to
be maintained she must be q greet inn
porter and q great exporter; the al
ternotive is economic ruin for herself
and erievous loss to those with whom
she troded. The future preservation OF
Britoin's trode will, therefore, otter the
war as Before, be on important eIe-
ment in the economic welI-being Of the
world.
In the post her export trade was
maintained under conditions many Of
which have vanished. The gap Of some
400, 5000 pounds year between
her Visible" imports and exports was
made up by shipping and financial
services, and by revenues from or the
the sole Of oversees investments But
the war has compelled her to port with
most Of those investments, and her
shipping position will, for some time,
be weaker than it wos
To some extent she may restore
the balance by growing more food at
home and by reIinquishine Iuxuries;
but these measures will not be enough;
she must find means Of increasing her
visible exports if her people ore to live
in reasonable comfort.
This she hopes to do without re-
course to those devices Of folse econ
ony which, before the war wrought
havoc throughout the world - toriffs,
shipping subsidies, exclusive tro d e
agreements, and the like.
To permit this, the standard Of Iiv-
ing everywhere must be improved The
worlds consuming power must be
ereoter Every foreign country must be
encouraged to have its own balanced
economy. The nations must be induc-
ed to cooperate in the adoption Of q
consumer policy and set themselves to
satisfy the needs Of those who, at pres
ent, have too little Of this worlds
goods.
Briton's future prosperity will be
absolutely dependent on the prosper
ity Of other countries and q reversal
Of the prewor doo-in-the-nnoneerp policy.
Happily the conditions which will be
indispensable to her will be in the in
terests oIso Of others; but they can
only be obtoined by enlightened COOP

the experts Of Britain, the United
Stotes, and countries Iike-mnded with

Watch Diet

Something can be done about
it and this remolding should be-
gin while they are still young.
The important thing is to be
sure the diet is correct. There
should be no restricted diets
for the growing girl. She needs
all the food elements for proper
growth and strength. but guam
titles and rich foods can be
drasticly cut.
Instead of sfter-school lunches
of large pieces of cake, cookies,
and sddas, fruit and possibly
a graham cracker would be
better.
The next correction. after the
slimming diet, is activity. The
overweight girl, provided she is
in good health, should never be
excused from her school gym
classes.
This exercise in class stimu-
lates the desire to keep moving.
For consciousness. and pride In
appea ance, we recommend
dancing.

Roast Corn

Roasting corn on a grill or in
an open fire is simple. Turn
back the husks. but do not re-
move. Remove the silk carefully
and examine the ear for faulty
grains. Then replace the husks
and tie at the end, dip into
cold water, and place on the
back of the grill. On a hot fire
the corn will cook perfectly in
about II minutes.
When serving, just unite The
husks and again turn back,
amounting the ear literally with
butter, sprinkling with a little
salt.
