South of the border a new class Is
springing up, for Mexico has discovered
her women. This emancipation is de-
scribed by Beatrice Washburn in an ar
tlcle in the November issue of the
Woman
Formerly there was no middle class in
Mexico. But now, as the country Is
ceasing to be agrarian and is developing
into an industrial nation, there is level
OF society between the aristocracy and
the lower class land the aristocrats are
losing their narrowness of outlook as
they lose their money; they are becom-
ing more socially conscious"
Whether it is the American movies or
the influnece of American tourists, Mex

Ambitious girls are going to Offices and

BlOOdless Invasion.
Frank Gervasi, in Golfers, writes
about Bible student and teetotaler who
led the actual invasion" of Europe,
stepping on the toe of Italy four years to
the day after Britain declared war
against Germany. He is Gen. Sir Ber-
nard l.. Montgomery, commander of the
British 9th, "democracy's first army OF
vengeance"
$50 flawless was the preparation for
the actual assault on the Italian main
land that, for the first time in military
history, masses of troops landed on
enemy soil without the loss of a single
soldier through enemy action" Mr.. Ger
vasi reports. Later, when the American
5th Army made the main assault on Italy
at Salerno, where the Germans were
waiting and ready, losses were heavy0
So thorough was the preparation and
so lacking was resistance that the as
sault was like "harpooning dead
whale"
Gervasi tells human interest story Of
the anxiety for Italian natives, of an
elderly Sicilian woman who passed am
munition to Cockney gun crew, and of
Monty" with the jaunty beret-a little
man, quiet and undramatic, but one of
the wars greatest military commanders.

Selective service has the responsibility OF
getting honorably discharged men back
into civilian jobs. And they are coming
back fast.
Disability discharges from the Army
and Navy now are running about 1000
week: by the end OF 1943 they will
reach 100000 and for the year 1914 re-
turning servicemen will number around
1000 900, the magazine estimates.
Most of the work Of the re-employ-
ment program will fall to volunteer COM
mittees attached to local boards. Many
ticklish problems are involved. when. for
example, butcher has reduced his staff
because of the meat shortage. Not all
of the disabled soldiers are incapacitated.

bulk of their defensive strength
along the 5th Army front in a
desperate bid to halt the Allied

This strategy became increasingly

Byrd Committee Asks
Liquidation Of Some

Proportion Of Aid to- D. c.
Lowest in Nation,
Report Asserts

The Byrd Economy Committee
called on the Federal Govern
nent today to dispose of some
OF its land holdings throughout
the country and to curtail future
acquisitions, charging that ex-
cessive amounts of property have
been bought in recent years.
Statistical tables showing that
the District Of Columbia has re-
ceived less Federal aid. in rela-
tion to the fair market value of
local Federal holdings, than eny
of the States, also were embodied
In the report. For details see
story on page BID
After citing figures to show that
in six years the land area under
Federal ownership has increased II
per cent" the joint congressional
group set forth these conclusions:
The committee has watched with
apprehension the alarming increase
in land acquisition in the last few
years. While the committee recog-
nizes that Wuch of this acquisition
has been for purposes connected with
the national emergency, it never
theless finds that excessive amounts
OF land have been purchased by the
Government since 1888.
THE committee further finds
that there has been a growing con-
Germ in many States which have
experienced the loss of large
amounts Of taxable property to the
Federal Government. Naturally, as
the Government acquires more and
more property. the tax load on the
local taxpayers directly increases.
This anomalous situation is further
complicated by the fear, expressed
IN many States, of the postwar
effects that the probable dumping
OF large tracts and parcels will have
on local real estate values.
consequently, the committee ex-
poets that Federal agencies contem-
plating Federal acquisitions should
curtail such plans as far as possible.
Such acquisitions should be effected
only after the possibility of using
available Federal holdings is ex-
hausted and after the long-ranre
effect on States and municipalities
concerned with such acquisitions has
been studied
THE committee further finds that
no uniform procedure for land and
parcel valuation is now in practice.
Consequently wide disparity in
appraisal values and purchase prices
are possible under such a decen-
tralized method"
