those judged capable, after careiui
investigation, of handling firearms.
Capability Stressed.
Spokesman for the board said the
organization believes that only those
auxiliary officers who are found to
oe fully capable should be given the
right to carry arms in carrying out
their civilian defense assignments
The board Is dead set against per-
mitting all members of the auxiliary
force to be armed just because they
are auxiliaries and believes that the
police chief, If he is given the pro-
posed authorization, should exercise
the greatest care in selecting them.
Training should be as complete as
that given regular members OF the
Metropolitan Police Department, the
board contends, and Maj. Kelly
should permit an auxiliary to carry
arms only after he has made a
thorough investigation Of the aux
iliary's character and has satisfied
himself that he has been given suf-
ficient training.
Members of the Public Order
Committee felt that the equipment
now furnished auxiliary officers
| lends sufficient means of authority
under ordinary conditions, but that
proper preparations should be made
for emergency situations. 1t is con-
tended that when an auxiliary
policeman is given the same re-
sponsibility as a regular policeman
he should be we'll equipped and
provided the same opportunities for
protection.
| Arguments Presented.
The issue of whether auxiliary
policemen should be armed still is
under consideration by District off,
cials. More than a month ago, Maj
Kelly submitted a report to the
Commissioners outlining his views
on the subject and summarizing
arguments for and against placing
guns in the hands of auxiliary
police.
Later, the whole matter was re-
ferred to Corporation Counsel Rich
mond B. Keech for legal opinion
on several questions involved, anc
it is understood that Mr.. Keech':
views have been laid before ths
Commissioners, but the city head!
have taken no action on the ques-
ton.
Maj. Kelly had suggested that tht
corporation counsel study the pro-
posal since it involved a question
Of the legal status of auxiliarie!
and the right of the Commissioner
to authorize arming of the aux
iliaries.
The auxiliary force, many o
whose members have performed out
standing work, has received mucl
praise from District ofiicials ant
citizens. Col. Lemuel Bolles, execu
tive director Of civilian defense TO
the Washington Metropolitan Ares
has expressed the opinion that mel
who are assigned to perform haz
ardous duties should be properl
equipped to perform those duties
but he also said he believed tina
certain restrictions should be throw
about the use of arms by atlxiliar,
police.

Greece is any but a distinct nation.
He will tell you in no uncertain
terms that the culture and science
of Europe stems from Greece's
Golden Age, in the 5th century
B. c., and that nothing in Greece
is borrowed.
He enjoys "the deeply friendly
atmosphere of America" and says
that everything over here very,

ton Of Washington heat.
Montana Reminds Him Of Greece.
He once drove across the conti-
nent to Seattle, was struck by how
completely different the West Coast
is from the East. Montana, though
an inland State, reminded him more
than any other of his sunny Greece,
where the combination of sea, earth
and sky is almost too vivid for
reality. The badlands impressed him
almost as much as did the Rockies.
His trip was cut short by the sink
ing OF Greek cruiser, the prelude
to the Italian attack. This tour
plus his lecture visits to the loyal
Greek colonies in this country has
familiarized him with us.
Born Sc years ago In Smyrna.
Turkey, he attended the well-known
Evangelical School of that town.
He went to the School of Political
Sciences in Paris, came here as
minister in 1882 after serving as
Minister in Sofia. Before that he
was stationed in Albania and he
was for a while chief of press sec
ton of the Foreign Office. He also
served as Consul General in Istan-
bul and is we'll acquainted with the
countries of the Near East.
Most momentous event OF his
career was the recent visit to this
country of his King, George II.
accompanied by the Prime Minister
of Greece. He was highly pleased
by the warm reception accorded his
sovereign and is greatly encouraged
by the indications of the visit. which
he hopes will prove beneficial to his
country.

II do not know OF woman in

duties permit who has not joined
up with some organization working
in the war effort, so widespread is
the realization of the need for
unified effort" Mrs. Koyl said.
Many OF the younger women uni
versity graduates have even left
their homes and gone to industrial
centers where they are specializing
in technical training and giving an
excellent account of themselves in
defense projects, just as the women
OF the United States are in similar
fields"
She stressed, too, the wholesale
Improvement which has come about
on Nationwide scale among Cana
da's housewives, as a direct result
OF the war effort in acquainting
them with better dietary standards
for their families, improved cook
ing methods and more complete
aWareness of their increased educa-
tional responsibilities toward their
children. Day nurseries for the care
OF the children of mothers who are
engaged in defense activities are
essential, she feels.
Innumerable organizations in Cam
ada, according to Mrs. Koyl, are
clubbing together to see that every
Canadian overseas unit is adopted"
by a group which makes itself re-
sponsible for providing these units
with extra smokes, powdered eggs
and milk, chocolate bars, hard can
dies and small packages of sugar.

Bv CATHERINE HAMBLEY.

BY CATHERINE HAMBLEY.
THE deluge in North Africa and
the dearly bought Nazi advances on
the eastern front are only episodes
in the evolution of this war!" says
Cimon P Diamantopoulos, Greek
Minister to the United States. "The
day of reckoning is coming despite
their machine!"
Thaughts, which would insanely
distract the average man, crowd
into the Minister'S mind. Not only
is Egypt of strategic Importance to
the Allies, but there are large Greek
colonies in Alexandria and Cairo,
many refugees from Greece and, OF
course, the Greek forces of land,
sea and air. If Egypt was put IN
extreme danger, what would become
of all these? How could his coun-
trymen in Greece expect to aid the
Allied troops who might attack the
enemies flank at that point?
But Diamantopolous holds fast
for such is the faith of this cour-
ageous Greek, a Greek like those
who carry on for a common cause
in all free countries.
Wit han intense energy, he keeps
up his terrific schedule. Since 1914
he has been exploding the myth
that diplomacy is anything but
game for the highly industrious.
He dashes in, fourishing report.
Suddenly an imperative job turns
up and out he races. He's back
in a fash. A minute later long
distance call interrupts and so it
goes. The procedure tends to stim-
ulate rather than harrass his staff.
Comeback for Every Quip.
He's extremely quick and friendly
with lively, green eyes and gray
hair, makes up in personality what
he lacks in height, and has an ap-
propriate comeback for every quip.
Though the advice of his brother
in-law, pre-war diplomat, per-
suaded him to follow the career"
he could be in the role Of country
gentleman, but prefers diplomacy
just the same. He loves walking
down rustic lanes.
He reads to relax and has a thor
ough appreciation of art-the
French Impressionist, Italian Prim-
itive and new American School. He
particularly appreciates the por-
trait OF the Duke of Wellington
hanging in the Larg Anderson
House, and "the splendidly arranged
Mellon Gallery"
The Minister has an endless sup
ply of facts on Greece: The pro-
portion Of agriculturals, intellec-
tuals, bourgeois, shepherds and

The Aeronautical Chamber of Com
merces report on the magnitude of this
country's unpublished air cargo program
Is very pleasing. But let's not forget that
we're still behind the eight-ball.
Two things about the report should be
noted, in view of the fact that, necessarily
1t deals only in generalities. One is that
the chamber represents the old line plane
builders who do not want to see Henry
Kaiser get a foothold in their business
The other is that the report came right
on the heels of Donald Nelson's expert
mental cargo plane order to Kaiser, and
would seem to minimize the Importance
of Kaiser's potentialities.
There may be more cargo planes built
and building than the public knows. But
experts outside the industry concede that
there aren't nearly enough.

, Your Opinions

United Nations cannot lose this
wor II Indian freedom Is granted
in time" These words open an edi-
torial under the foregoing title ap-
pearing in the Christian Century
OF October 21. They deserve the
careful reading OF everyone who
has a stake in this war--and that
is everybody.
Similar opinions are held by a
majority. of informed people. To
mention a few-Pearl Buck and
Stanley Jones. who have spent a
large portion of their lives in the
Orient: Herbert L. Matthews, cor
respondent for the New York
Times, a paper strongly support
ing the administration policy. The
magazine Life has expressed such
opinion, as has Drew Pearson in
the Merry-go-Round. Similar ideas
were heard over a recent Town
Meeting of the Air. 1t is most
important that the man of the
street make himself informed in
this matter, and exert his influence
on his government to bring about
mediation of this careful matter.
The article mentioned previously
continues: THE war to preserve
freedom from the threat of total
itarian slavery has been turned by
Mr.. Churchill into a struggle to
preserve imperialism from the
menace Of democratic self-rule."
II the colored peoples OF the
world become convinced that this
war is after all not a war for free
dom, but merely TO maintain i'm
perialisms founded in blood and
conquest; If this war becomes a
struggle between races, then the
outlook is indeed dark. Boys now
playing in the nursery will lose
their lives on far-flung battlefields.
Let us inform ourselves, and
urge our government TO attempt
steps of mediation before II is
eternally too late.
