WASHINGTON, Nov. 19 "A
w portentous mystery 10 the
nation must have been the cleo
ton Of three Communists 10 the
-New-furk- city council ana the
-Ct7urrp 'ff2iTUu7ds HUref1o 10 the
supreme court there, only a few
weeks after his own party's dis
-trict attorney had exposed him
as being all too chubby with a
slot machine racketeer.
Backbitng determinations eX-
changed by the New York po-
htlcoS since then have offered
no adequate explanation of this
dual phenomenon. which may
sound. offhand 10 an outsider
like New York was going Conn
munist, in enthusiasm over the
Moscow pacts, or that the cleo
torate was not only angry but
thoroughly mad at the Tammany
leaders and let them stew in
judicial juice of their own first
choice.
There may be an iota or two
Of truth in such generalized as
sumptionS, but the underlying
facts show a different control
ling impetus of events behind
the results.
TIIE truth is nothing could be,
Il or was found on Aurelio, be-
yond the telephone conversation
recorded by wire-tappers OF the
district attorney working on an
other case.
That dlalog between the
Judge and the racketeer- seemed
10 betray a condition of famll-
iarity. not entirely dissipated
by Aurelio's excuse that he was
lust being lavishly appreciative
10 a remote constituent, Out
side of that he was assumed 10
he pure, and disbarment pro-
ceedings against him therefore
failed.
But Aurelio was elected by
the Democratic and Tammany
leaders themselves. They voted
for him as they will tell you if
you ask.
The Communists sneaked into
the city council by a trick which
will certainly be made impossi-
bic hereafter by the state legis-
lature at the next session. There
are only about 100000 Commu-
MIST voters in New York and all
are members of the American
Labor party (Which can control
no more than $4,000 votes in
city of about 2,200, 600 regis
tered VoterS).
Thus the city is in no danger
Of going Com NUNS by
straight elections at any rate.
,THE councilmen, h YER,
j were elected by an idiotic
voting system. A voter casts
first. second and third choice.
The man who first gets 130O0
first choices wins. or a majority
of first choices, or top prefer
ences among the first three.
The Communists beat this
racket by the simple device of
having their people vote only for
their own candidates AS first
choices. and for no others.
The election was we'll handled
only from the Communist side,
and the question now is whether
Tammany will try 10 reorganize
itself and re-establish itself, or
crumble and lose whatever re-
naming control il has loosely
eXerted in the nations largest

A word of rather rapturous praise
| comes from 1t. Wolters, who is with
the special service Office of the
engineers at Fort Belvoir, regarding
the show staged last Sunday for the
boys by Emil Coleman's Orchestra
and four performers from Paul
Young's. This, in itself, is unexcep-
tional: All local night club enter
tainers have been devoting their
extra hours (as many as the union
permits) to personal appearances
at the Canteen and jaunts to the
neighboring camps. However, it was
the Statler-PaM Young's entourage
to which fell the honor of opening,
in a casual way, the season for
Belvoir's new and spacious amphi-
theater, which seats more than the
1000 soldiers who attended last
Sundays performance. The special
service Office intimates it was an
auspicious start for a theater which
does not know the meaning of the
term dark house." being perhaps
the most f1ourishingly popular insti-
tuition in the entire nearby area.

The change in the weather from
cold to warm temperatures means
more to Oscar Heintze than an
added topic for brilliant conversa-
tions. Unlike the average after
dark denizen, Oscar Heintze (of
the 823's duo-piano Heintzes) is no
seeker after the proverbial night
club tan. When, in short, every
thing of Nature commences to &C
quire that certain greenish tint, Mr..
Heintze's inclinations turn rather
to hand plows, fertilizers and seed
companies. Not that he doesn't
relish his music with customary
ardor, but you and you and possibly
you know what that old debbil

Here is her problem.
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
My fiance is a second lieuten-
ant in the army, and we are
going to be married next month
in church near his camp.
Mother is going with me to our
wedding. Stree the long distance
means that none of my friends
and only a few of my fiance's
friends. will be present at our
wedding, we are planning to
send formal wedding announce
mentS.
We have a problem about the
correct form of names the
correct form for my fiance's
name, and the correct form for
mothers name. Will you help us,
please?
What is the correct form
for my fiance's name on the an
nouncementS?
2-And now as 10 mothers
name. She has been separated
from my dad for quite a few
years, and she always uses her
given name with my fathers
last name. Is this form proper
to have on the announcements?
Jean.
This is the usual form for
the name of the bridegroom
whose rank is below captain in
the army:
Robert Ames Reed
Second Lieutenant, u. S. Army
When the bridegroom's rating
is indicated on the line below his
name, the Mr." is usually
omitted before his name.
IL do hope that your mothers
first name will not appear on
your formal marriage announce
ments, for this would most def
nitely show bad taste.
If your mother is divorced
rom your father, she should
substitute her maiden surname
place of your fathers first
name Mrs. Smith Robinson.
If she is only separated, not
divorced, she should use your
fathers name with Mrs.
Mrs. John Robinson.
If your mother and father are
not divorced, and if there is an
agreeable relationship between
them. or between you and your
father, l am wondering if you
and your mother would be will
ing TO include your fathers
name on the announcements
This is only a suggestion, of
course. since / could not know
