Are people going to drink beer
or is America going to be fed?"
That was the question posed by
Miss Elizabeth A. Smart, Washing
ton representative of the national
Women's Christian Temperance
Union, in an address last night at
the opening meeting of the conven-
ton.
Miss Smart pointed out that thou
sands of pounds of barley, rice, fruit
and berries are now being used to
make beer and wine while the Ma
ton is facing real food shortage
in the coming months"
Part of this shortage, she ex-
planned, is due to the decline in
dairy and poultry industries because
OF lack OF feed for cattle and
chickens.
Cows do not give milk, hens do
not lay eggs without food" she as
serted, but the brewing industry
is taking corn syrup and grain to
make beer"
The alchoholic beverage industry
was also blamed by the speaker for
utilizing much Of the Nations man.

By the Way
BETH BLAINE

There is very little that Mrs.
Whitney Leary doesn't know
about nutrition and canteen.
For three years now she has
worked for the Red Cross in just
about all of its canteens
at the Blood Donor Center, the
mobile canteen which goes out
at night and in several Of the
recreational center canteens.
She knows emergency and shock
feeding and has taken all the
necessary nutrition and first-aid
courses prior to her Red Gross
work.
If she works hard for the
war effort during the week she
works just as hard over the
week ends supervising the run
ming of her summer place in
Maryland which is equipped for
farming and tobacco raising.
The history of that historic place,
18th century West Saint Mary's
Manor, would make a story In
itself. In fact it has already been
written about by such able his
torians as Swepson Earle, Paul
Wilstach and Henry Chandlee
Forman. 1t was the first grant
of land given in the province of
Maryland and Mrs. Leary and her
late husband bought and restored
it several years ago. Said to
command the finest view in
Maryland, it has a mile and
half of water front and its own
private bathing beach. Inside
it is furnished with exquisite
antiques.
The wallpaper in one of the
rooms is said by the Metropoli-
tan Museum to be the oldest
wallpaper in the country and
was copied and reproduced for
one of the houses in the restora-
tion of Williamsburg.
Collecting antiques is her real
hobby, Mrs. Leary says. She has
her apartment at the Mayfower
filled with lovely pieces, too.
She used to ride horseback a
lot, but Red Cross work and the
farm don't allow much time for
that any more and like most busy
women she is content to fill her
days with more purposeful things
until we win the war.

Voters Must Guide
Collaboration,
Ball Declares
By GRETCHEN SMITH.

Establishment of a foreign policy
to assure Americas postwar CO.
operation with other nations tc
maintain world peace, and the elec-
ton of political leaders without
axes to grind" were declared out
standing responsibilities of the Ma
, tlon's voters by Senator Ball, Re-
publican, of Minnesota in an ad-
dress yesterday.
Speaking at the YWCA before the
District Voteless League of Women
Voters at the opening luncheon
meeting of the season, the Senator
emphasized the importance Of de-
termining national foreign policy
which will "set up an effective COL
lective security in the world"
He warned against possibility OF
domestic issues" overshadoWine
those of foreign policy in the next
political campaign. adding that
such situation would be extremely
dangerous.
I'VE can't determine our domestic
policy unless we know our foreign
policy" he pointed out. IF we can
set up an effective collective Sc
curity in the world, then the do
mestic policy can proceed on the
assumption that we can build UP
our trade, use our great natural
resources in developing the coun-
try and those countries without re-
sources, and building up the stand
ards of living in the United States
On the other hand, if our efforts
fail, and it's every nation for itself
then our domestic policy must be
different"
The speaker declared that Amer
ica's failure to set up an effective
economic security before the war is
over might result in the country
drifting toward a dictatorship" A
nations foreign policy is determined
in the field of politics by politi-
clans" Senator Ball continued
candidates for public Office in the
next election should be those whose
thinking is clear and logical on this
issue"
He urged that every voter Join a
political party, go to the polls, and
raise the standards of Government
office holders. Get men who won't
accept public Office unless they can
stand on their own feet: men with
out axes to grind in politics." he
advised.
The subject of the Senator's ad-
dress was in line with the league S
study program for the coming year
The United States in the Postwar
World Other projects of national
and local scope, including the ques-
ton of District suffrage. will be
studied and acted on by the District

1T is essential" he said on a radio

able is our chronological superior

those nations which have an agency

Maj. De Seversky renewed his ar

by heavily loaded planes with at
least 5000 miles striking radius.

Relief
Continued From First Page

governmental relations within the
United Nations framework, and the
question of dividing up the supply
assignment.
UNRRA should be ready to roll
by the end of the winter, Mr..
Acheson said.
In order to prepare for the huge
task ahead, Mr.. Lehman said
"One of the chief objectives of
UNRRA must be to see that world
supplies, so long as they are limited
are eQuitably distributed among
those who need them to maintain
life, regardless of the economic DO
sltlon of the nations" He limited
that international control over
world distribution would be con-
tinued after the war "if we are tc
avoid in inflationary scramble in
world markets, which can only be
ruinous to all nations"
Calls for Stock -Pilins.
He called for immediate stock
piling "of basic relief and rehabil
tatlon supplies so that their avail
ability can be assured to those whose
plight is now so desperate"
Mr.. Lehman lessened, the doubts
OF the representative of the small
er powers, who have been Won
dering whether they we're to be die
tated to in UNRRA by the Big -Four
governments-United States, Great
Britain, Russia and China, which
compose the Central Committee
when he said:
He portrayed UNRRA as an in
strument for satisfying humani-
tartan instincts, bolstering military
security and for providing the world
with long-range economic security,
he lntimated that his concept of
relief extends ito the uttermost
eastern line of Nazi penetration into
observation-disclosures the
Russians have not indicated they are
formal supplicants for share in
rellef. Great Britain has been bat
tered by the war, but there has never
been a suggestion that it would
share in the direct benefits OF

STOCKHOLM, Nov. II. The
Rome correspondent Of the Stock
holm newspaper Tidningen said to-
day that the bombing Of Vatican
City last week by an unidentified
plane had not caused as much
damage as was at first supposed.
The pilot OF the plane, the corre-
spondent said, apparently did
everything to cause as little damage
as possible but create q noise heard
around the world"
(Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhowers
headquarters in Algiers declared
after an official investigation
earlier this week that it had been
established that the Allied air
forces were not responsible. The
theory has been advanced that
the bombing was engineered by
the Germans as a propaganda
move with the hope Of pinnine
the blame on the Allies.)

Truman AssaiIs Plan
or Government-Paid
Advertising Program
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO. Nov. 12.-Senator Tru-
man. Democrat, Of Missouri said last
night there are distinct limits" on
the extent to which corporations
should be permitted to charge the
advertising as an expense OF war
business and in my opinion
many OF such corporations have
gone beyond those limits"
In addressing the Central Council
OF American Association Of Adver-
tising Agencies Senator Truman as
serted:
There has been too much OF what
advertising agencies refer to as
blue sky advertising. 1t Is virtually
impossible today to pick up mag
azine or newspaper without finding
page after page of glowing tribute
to American industry. To read the
dramatically written messages and
to see the highly -colored photo
graphs and drawings one would al
most think that our battles were
not won by our fighting men at
all, but by our war industries.
Some OF these companies have
even used advertising, the cost Of
which is indirectly borne by the tax
payer, to create false impressions
or to counteract criticism which has
legitimately been directed at them"
He said corporations with virtual
ly all war business were permitted
to charge part Of the advertising
cost to the product price. Hence. he
said, the taxpayer indirectly paid
for such advertisements.
He termed Government-paid ad-
vertising program perilous to the
integrity Of the press and radio"
He praised advertising for aiding
various war programs such as War
bond sales and added, 1T is up to
