ABOVE THE HULLABALOO
United (! g? !?
By LYTLE HULL

Archibald NacLeish-director of
the Office OF Facts and Figures
says that the people of this nation
are at last United Mr.. Rex Stout
the author-suggests that our Uni
ty is "Phooey." Mr.. MacLeish is
correct Any country at war is
United-unless it be a civil war. For
il stands to reason that its citizens
want to win that war if for no other
cause than that they must pay the
piper If they lose it.
There are, of course, degrees of
Unity. This truism could not be
better Illustrated than at the pres
ent moment when our side Is getting
its nose bloodied in the first round
with the resultant Axis-enjoyed
homemade clamor. II we were fore
ing the fighting and things were 60
ing our way, the Unity would be so
thick-you couldn't cut it with a
knife. Japan Is probably smothered
in dense clouds of it at this mo-
ment. These clouds were tinted an
other color before the attack on
Pearl Harbor. The japanese army
had run into hard Shedding in China.
and internal dissention in the Land
Of the Rising Sun was reported
TO be rampant. Then came Decem-
Der Seventh-and things have been
lovely for them ever since-on the
surface. When the Germans were
roaring ahead through Russia-Uni-
ty was having big time behind the
lines. But since the Russians have
started pushing them around" re-
ports Of German Unity aren't so
glowing.
The degrees of Unity rise and
fall with the tides of battle. Britain
and the United States are getting a
pounding at the moment-so sur
face Unity Is at low ebb. In this
country we are slapping at the ad-
ministration and at everybody con-
nected with the conduct of the war;
and there Is plenty Of kindergarten
conversation floating around about
Britain doing nothing and about the
foolishness Of helping Russia to get

WHAT ABOUT COMPANY MANNERS?

II comes to company dinners we
don't want to return to that barbar.
ic custom of making the children
wait for the second table in an
agony of doubt as to whether or not
the pie would go around. But II
they are old enough to eat with
the grown-ups surely they should
have enough self-control to observe
adult table manners.
Part Of the difficulty lies In our
overestimating children's ability to
follow a good example. They're not
likely to be any better than the ex-
ample we set but to become as
good requires instruction and drill.
Perhaps the greatest fault Is re-
serving company manners for COM
pany. They need daily polishing.
For not until they become second
nature can the rules Of courtesy
serve their greatest function, which
Is to put the child himself at ease.
AS much as we enjoy the movies
we dislike their tendency to show
American children as lacking in
courtesy. This is especially regret
table since. If they tried, the films
could make good manners as popu.
lar as movie fashions are.
OF course, most Of today's chill
dren have charming manners. But
there are still too many parents
who seem to think their children
should never be inconvenienced, OF
who seem so afraid Of incurring
their displeasure that they let them
do as they like. In fact nothing
makes me sadder for the children
sake than to note how much some
children are going to have to learn
after they leave home.
The Coolidge examiner., 1942-03-13

Some people seem TO think that
company manners are merely
showing of. We don't agree. In our
experience manners were prompt
ed by a desire to have the family
seen IN q good light You might
be far from perfect in your every
day dealings with mother but you
simply didn't let her down before
guests. Which reminds me. she
never let US down eitherl She was
always pleasant to our friends and
made them feel welcome. Do you
suppose today's parents are care
less m this respect, which Is why
their children often don't put them
selves out to be agreeable when
grown-up company comes?
Company manners have other
values besides making a guest feel
at home. For instance, on days
when the children are cross and
feel hateful inside. having company
come gives them a chance to pull
out Of their bad mood and "save
face" by oeing nice to mother {
guest BY the time the company
has gone they viii be all over the
sulks and couldn't go back to feel
ing abused IL they tried. That Is
If mother Is tactful enough not tc

behaviorl

murmur "Yes. Aunt Emilia. No

questions from a thoughtless Wis
itor. But few minutes to greet

the highest ever.
Didn't Osborn promise to reduce
the killings on our highways He
said he welcomed that RESPONSE
bility.' The death rate on Arizona
roads last year was a national
disgrace.
"Diddn't Osborn promise to take
the state hospital out of politics
Everyone who reads the news
papers knows that the intent of
the Sharpe Bill has been ignored
and the institution is hotbed of
political unrest and intrigue
Newspapers in several parts of
Arizona have deemed it necessary
to ask Osborn in editorials to eli
inmate politics from the civilian
defense council and do something
practical to help our country win
the war.
--latest reports from Tucson
criticize Osborn for attempting to
mix politics with the administration
of the state university.
Didn't Osborn veto the small
mine operators appropriation,
which has seriously hampered the
search for strategic minerals in
Arizona-this states creates po-
tential contribution to the war eff
fort?
Didn't Osborn veto the practi-
cal legislation sought by our i'm
portant cattle industry?
"These are just a few of the
things Osborn has done which the
people who voted for him didn't
suspect he would do.
Surely the voters of Arizona
will not reflect man who broke
so many campaign promises. Re

Osborn has broken more promises
in IA months than Promising

Mr.. Jennings is one of the most
vigorous campaigners in the state.
An original old-age pension advo-
cate, he at one time was a sponsor
of the Townsend Plan and has a
large following among the oldsters.
Still another potential congress
sional entry is Sen. Marvin E.
Smith, of Maricopa, possessor of
the most bombilating voice since
the stentorian solon, Maj. w. w.
Midgley, came to the senate from
CocOnino county decade ago.
Sen. Smith recently underwent
a minor operation to be physically
fit to join Uncle Sans army in
which he served in World War j.
He steadfastly refuses to indicate
any desire to seek public office this
year, but a sizable group of vet
Grams are working in his behalf,
insisting they will draft" the state
senator for the congressional race.
Agricultural groups are attempt
ing to persuade exSen. James
Minotto to again be candidate for
