The sugar situation has become
so badly muddled that nothing
short of complete backdown,
and acknowledgment of mistake
would quickly bring order out Of
present chaos.
Best available information is
to the effect that current supplies
of sugar in the United States
are more than sufficient to meet
all needs for this year and that

such volume as to again fill the

Protection For Women

conduct would precipate a religious uprising which

There is no Arab custom which must be respected
more completely than their attitude toward You
must not talk to Mosem women. Never under any cir

We did not ask of those who died
from whence they came or by
what faith they lived. They were
soldiers in a battle for Democ-
racy. Ours was--still is-the task
OF keeping that Democracy alive
SO that their sacrifice might not
have been in vain.
We have not yet fulfilled our
task. And today the fight is on
anew between the forces OF op-

forces OF democracy and freedom.

Some years ago the reformers and crusaders set
about the abolition OF prostitution. This was a high

selves were not converted or reformed.
Nobody has even been able to show how driving
prostitute out of red light district into respect

fallen women back to decent lives then there would
have been some point In chasing them out OF the
