Writes:

Gut of Washington comes word
that We are risking power short
ages, which would slow down war
production, because we can not
spare copper from munitions for
use in electricity installations.
The power shortages are prob
lematical. They lie somewhere in
the future. We ma" get by without
increased power facilities. But we
can not get by without shells for
our soldiers and those of our allies.
Under such circumstances few
will question the War Production
Boards decision to take the shells
now and worry about electricity
later, if we have to.
But what burns up the WPB,
and most others who know the
facts, is this:
There is no need to risk having
to shut down vital war plants for
lack of power We could have mu-
nitions and also plenty of electri-
city, if we put on the pressure.
The Treasury now possesses 120,-
coo tons of silver. There is being
produced in the United States 1000
tens of silver each year This could
be used to assure the electricity
we MAJ need badly before long
Silver is one of three metals par
ticularly suitable for use as con-
ductor of electricity. One is cop
per-which IS so scarce we can not
spare it from direct war material.
One is aluminum-which is so nee
essary for planes that we have used

ply our aluminium output
The third is silver, of which l20,-
600 tons lie idle in Treasury vaults
and 1000 more tons are added an
nually.
Some idle silver has been released
to replace copper in electric power
busbarS and transformers. Donald
Nelson is trying to obtain another
$1,000 tons, on condition that after
the war it shall be returned to
Treasury vaults.
Why must we go through all this
rigmarole in order to persuade the
Treasury to permit the use of silver
to help win the war? Because that's
the law.
On the open market silver is
worth 35 cents a troy ounce. The
Treasury is required, however, to
take all that is offered from do
meStic mines at II cents an ounce,
regardless Of the market, or up to
Sl.28 if, by some miracle, the mar
ket price were to exceed II cents.
Naturally, domestic silver goes to
the Treasury. not to industry
The Treasury is forbidden to sell
silver, for am purpose, for less
than $l.29 for each troy ounce.
So, willy nilly. while we risk the
disaster a real power shortage
might bring, the Treasury boards
enough silver to relieve the dan
ger. Nothing can be done unless
Congress is willing to override the
silver bloc's bitter-end opposition.
That, briefly, is the tragedy of

MIND YOUR
MANNERS

Test your knowledge of correct
social usage by answering the fol-
lowing questions, t:ien checking
against the authoritative answers
below:
l. Is it even more important to
keep your radio from blaring in
summer than it is in winter?
2. If hostess turns an electric
fan on a guest, and the guest is
afraid Of taking cold, is it all right
for him to say SC?
3. When a hostess without serv-
ants serves a meal in the yard,
should the guests wait on themselves
or expect to be waited on?
4. Should a woman dinner guest,
insist on helping her hostess in the
kitchen If the hostess has no help?
5. Should guests, who arrive at
a party simultaneously and have
introduce themselves if they do not
know each other?
What would you do if
You see, in her yard, a woman
who has just moved into the house
next to yours
(a Speak to her?
(b) Go on about your business
without speaking?
Answers
l. Yes, since it is more likely to
annoy your neighbors when your
windows and theirs are up.
2. Yes.
3. They should wait on them
selves.
4. She shouldn't insist, though it
is considerate to offer, because some
women prefer to have their kitch-
ems to themselves when they are get
ting a meal on the table
S. 1t makes the situation less
awkward if they do.

sonated by Cecil Kellaway as "Y.
Frank Fremont. Cecil De Mile
and Preston Sturges play them
selves.
MOORE BETTER
For perhaps the second time in
his ill-caSt Hollywood career, Vic
tor Moore gets a role in keeping
with his Broadway accomplish
mentS. He is shown as an old west
ern star of silent pictures who has
sunk to the position of studio gate
man. Trouble is, he has son ed
die Bracken in the navy who has
told ShipmateS his father is the
big boss of Paramount. When the
men get leave, Bracken and a Par
amount phone operator Betty Hut
tom brazen out the lie by putting
Victor into "B G.. DeSoto's" office
and using every means except muir
der to keep the rightful tenant out.
Hollywood takes a ribbing all the
way, including number in which
the Misses Goddard, Lamour and
Lake form glamor trio and sing
"A Sweater, Sarong and Peeka-
boo Bang" The fancy offices of
studio mogulS are satirized when
Moore sits at the boss desk and
begins pushing buttons in an ef-
fort to summon Miss Hutton. Ev-
erTthing else happens instead: A
yeS-man pops in, all the Venetian
blinds shoot up, music blareS, a
mbaSseur appears.
Most astonishing of all is the
automatic bar When Moore touches
button, the whole top of the desk
moves out into the room and things
begin rising, unfolding and slid
ing into place until there stands
a bar complete with dozens of bot
ties, glasses, spigots, ice, apron and
towel
AND NO KIDDING
Such devices are not very far
fetched at that About a year ago,
Paulette Goddard was given a gilt
teding, stainless steel makeup table,
on wheels, that looks like a cross
between a soda fountain and juke
box. Matter of fact, it is just that.
Push one of a row of buttons,
and side panel moves down to re-
veal a radio. Another button con-
trolls a similar panel on the other
side, and when it opens a little bar
swings cut, with glasses, siphon and
a brace of decanters.

Calory charts, now being diStrib-

foods needed for health, should be
a great boon to American figures.
