Strategy and Geography

BY the time the present war is over millions of
Americans will have acquired fundamental knowledge
of geography, including the location of unheard of
places and the juxtaposition of strange areas.
Even those who learned the location of Crete Sicily
and the Dodecanese islands in the Mediterranean and
the locations of Syria, Iraq and Iran in relation to
Turkey and Russia have had to take something of
postgraduate to separate the Strait of Maacca
from the Molucca passage and to locate Mountmen,
Penang Kuchng and larger entities, like the Bismarck
Archipelago and Celebes.
Before the battle is over Americans will become
world-minded understanding the threats that arise
against this nations and security in fardistant
places Moreover we will begin to suspect that after
ALL there are other good peoples and fair lands outside
continental United States

busy taking an intensive course
in home nursing at the Red Gross
Nursing Center at Walsh House.
When the call was made by the
Red Cross for volunteers for
home nursing the auxiliary i'm
mediately responded by organiz-
ing a. class among its members.
Mrs. A. Magruder Macdonald,
president of the auxiliary, and
Mrs. Charles H. McEnerney,
chairman Of the Red Cross unit
Of the organization, were among
the first to enroll for the course.
Miss Caroline Thomson, direc-
tor Of instructions of the Red
Cross, is most enthusiastic about
this interesting class made up
almost entirely of wives of ply
sicians. Certainly no other group
of women can so appreciate the
ever increasing shortage of
nurses as wives of doctors who
share their husbands concern
over this mounting problem.

The President of Ecuador,
Senor Carlos Arroyo del Rio, will
visit in Washington sometime
about the middle of November,
the exact day between November
Is and 20 not having been set.
Also awaiting a final decision is
whether Sonora Arroyo del Rio
will accompany the Chief Execu-
tive and his party or remain in
the Presidents Palace at Quito.
1t would be a delightful inno-
vation to have some feminine
visitors from foreign lands with
the many officials who come to
this Capital. When the first an
nouncements Of the visit of
President Juan Antonio Rios OF
Chile were made it was said that
Sonora de Rios would join him
here for his visit. Sonora de
Rios is in California and perhaps
when the President of Chile Sc
lects new date for his trip to
this country she will come East
and take her share of the festiv-
itiss which will be planned for
him.
The parties in honor of the
President of Ecuador will follow
the pattern established with the
visits of heads of other repub-
lies and governments with a din
ner at the White House the eve
ming Of the Presidents arrival
here, and a dinner and reception
at the visitors embassy before he
leaves. In between there will be
conferences and small informal
luncheons and teas and President
