The third front? Lowell Mel
let, U. S. commissar of the Gin
ema, strikes back at people who
criticize the good old boy meets
girl formula. Il have never been
able to understand this atti
tude," he says. 1.-The boy does
meet the girl, doesn't he?"
Maybe he does, but this isn't
showing a very firm grasp of
the problem. The point is, does
he get her? The complete
formula used to read: boy
meets girl, boy loses girl, boy
gets girl" But now the draft has
changed this to: boy meets girl,
boy loses girl, studio loses boy"
Old "quickie' producers who
came up from Poverty Row"
are more in step with the times.

DARLAN IN NORTH AFRICA

The position Of Admiral Doron in North Africa,
as protector Of French interests there with the OPP
provoI Of American military authorities surely is por-
odozicoI No wonder everybody is puzzled, many
annoyed and at least some bitterly resentfuI.
We have always regarded DorIon as pro-Noz,
and his influence os very bad. He cooy turned
French ndo-Chino to the japanese. He had new
er made any corresponding gesture toward us.
Why, then, do we suddenly accept DorIon as an
equal, an oily on agent Of our own in position where
treochey might be particularly hormful?
True, Dorlon surrendered AIeiers to US with q
minimum Of resistance Thereafter he ordered all
Vichy troops in Africa to cease fighting against
Then he rodoed request to the French fleet to leave
TouIon and Join the AneIo-Amercon forces He op-
pointed as military leader for North Africa Of the
few high French generals who commands universal
respect from onti.oxs peoples, Gen. Henri Giroud
What does that mean? Does it imply, as critics
Of the arrangement oreue nothing more than that
Admiral DorIon is reo|ist; that he has concluded
that the United Nations are going to win?
Thot could be, Of course. And yet, Roosevelt and
Churchill, Eisenhower onc Clark are reost too. One
would be surprised if reolists accepted Dorlons
realism to the extent Of playing into his hands or to
the extent Of unnecessarily alternating our Fighting
French allies.
How did it happen that Admiral Dorlon was in
North Africa at the psychological moment when we
struck - in position to assist - bearing Petoins
credentials as head Of all French fighting forces,
land and on SEQ?
Could it be that Admiral leohy, the Presidents
chief Of stoff who ambassador in Vchy for
the principal reason Of his long friendship with French
ni|itory and naval chieftons, knows what lies be-
hind DorIon's sudden conversion?

McKENNY ON
BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM e. MCKINNEY
Americas Gard Authority

Recently a New York judge
said he did not think that dupli-
cate bridge was a game of skill.
His contention was that II you
hold good cards. you have TO
win. Of course duplicate bridge
players know that everyone has
to play the same cards. When
Mrs. A. M. Sobel of New York
won three out of four champion
ships in the recent Metropolitan
Tournament. everybody started
to call her the "card-rack." Mrs.
Sobel admits she likes to hold
good cards, but she says, in or

Public Spirit

People have always been honor
ed when they had public spirit. In
communities there have usually
been some who were exceptionally
willing to give time and effort to
accomplish desirable ends for their
home towns. They would help
carry on the organizations that
promote local causes, they would
subscribe generously to philan-
thropies, and they would work in
many movements aimed to in
crease local benefits.
The folks who manifested this
public spirit have always felt well
repaid. They made many friends, so
that. their enterprises were usually
successful. They got experience
in managing affairs which helped
them in carrying on business or
working on a job. And they felt
rewarded, apart from personal ben
efits, by the satisfaction of seeing
their home towns make good pro-
gress.

Farmers To Go The Limit

The government has asked farm
ers to produce crops as never be-
fore; and put every acre of land to
work. 1t will take a tremendous
supply of food to provide for our
great and growing army and navy,
in addition to which we have to
contribute vast stores to feed the
British, whose little island does
not support its own people.
The farmers need not fear pro-
ducing an unstable surplus, as
suming they grow the things the
country needs most. A world torn
by war feeds itself with difficulty.
Countless men who should be grow
ing crops are called on to produce
and use the weapons of destruc-
ton. Every acre of crops, every
COW and pig, help to produce the
muscle and the power that make
men able to carry ON successful
war.
