"The one thing definitely known
about private housing is that its

Mr.. 1hlder attacked the compari-

grounds that they made no pretense

that Mr.. Lusk included Langstor

REV. J. J. KENNEDY
 GIVEN NEW POST

Providence, R. l., May 13-Rev. John J. Kennedy, O. F., S. T. Lr, professor of philosophy at Provi- dence College since 194l, has been appointed chaplain at the U. s. Sol- diers' Home, Washington, D. C., the Very Rev. Dr. John J. Dillon, O. P. president of the college, announced today
 Before joining the faculty at Pro- vidence College. Father Kennedy was professor of philosophy and re- ligion and chaplain at Albertus Magnus College, New Haven Conn, from 1897 to 1941. A native of Knoxville, Tenn, he was professed in the Order of Preachers at St. Jo- seph's Priory, Somerset, Ohio, Octo- Der 12, 1919 and was ordained a priest at St. Dominic's Church, Washington, D. c. on June r, 1925, by Most Rev.

men," is followed by collection of short stories on women, Between the Dark and the Daylight" (Scrib- ner's: $2,50). These short stories range in mood from warmth and simplicity to bitterness and satire. One, The Japanese Garden" is as true and as deep a commentary on the fundamental inconsistency and incongruity of world at war as can be found.
 Particularly timely right now is Cory Ford's Short Cut to Tokyo (Scribner's: $1.75). Ford, known na- tionally for his magazine articles, writes of Alaska and the Aleutians, and their importance as stepping stones to Tokyo, and the rigors of the Arctic that hide the manipula- tions of friend and foe alike. Ford, who spent months in this section, warns that Japan still has as its paramount aspiration invasion of the United States coast, and that this northernmost outpost of ours is where the blow might come from, if ever.
 Books on medicine generally are rather dull reading to the layman. But Dr. Gregory Zilbord's Mind, Medicine, and Man" (Harcourt, Brace: $3.50) is a bit different than the ordinary heavy volume on this subject. Particularly interesting IS his treatment of psychiatry, and how knowledge of this subject will Influence our thinking about men, tai and physical maladies. Even touches on medicine and its relation to religion.
 Sir Thomas Beecham-orchestra conductor, composer, entrepreneur, bus1nessman-relateS the story of his life in leisurely fashion. The world of music and its devotees emerges from "A Mingled Crime" Putnam: $3.50), arrayed in anec- dote, observation and criticism. From the time the non- prodigy G. year-old astounds his parents by asking permission to learn the pia- no, through the conventional school ing of an English gentleman. into the manysided pursuit of a rigor- ous profession, Sir Thomas treats the reader to personalities, events. and reflections with infinite grace and diSarming candor.

This Is one of the unforgettable parts of the graphic picture, com posed mostly of official German films, depicting the aggressions of Hitler commencing with the occu- patton of Austria through the col- lapse of Poland. The film is the second in series of seven prepared by the special services division of the Army Service Forces to show American soldiers how the war started and what their relation is to 1t.
 Began With Bismarck
 The film asserts that German ambitions for world conquest dated from Bismarck. Hitler took up the cause after the Kaiser failed. The ambitions of these three cost the world 20,0oO,000 persons killed and 60,000,000 wounded, rendered 20O,- 100000 homeless and resulted in the destruction of billions of dollars worth of property.
 The Army picture outlines the NaA plan for conquering the world. The first step was to conquer East  ern Europe, and next what the German geopoliticians called the 'Heartland," representing roughly the area in Europe and Asia which centuries ago was controlled by the great conqueror, Genghis Khan. This would lead to the complete control of Europe, Asia and Africa and finally the conquest of the world.
 Hitler started teaching that per sons with German blood anywhere owed allegiance to the German Reich, even to the sixth and sev- enth generation.
 Some persons of German descent had different ideas, the film con- finued, as pictures were thrown on -ahe screen of some outstanding

Americans of German ancestry-Lt Gen. Walter Kreuger, commander of the 9th U. s. Army in the South- west Pacific; Wendell Willkie. Re- publican Presidential candidate; Henry J. Kaiser, West Coast ship builder, and Senator Robert Wag- ner of New York.
 Shows NaziS' Methods
 The film portrayed the Nazis' methods, including the hardening up" process at home in which con- script labor worked long hours to arm the Reich, and the "softening up" processes elsewhere in Europe, and even in the United States. in- cluding the fomenting of dissension and unrest.
 In 1885 Hitler ordered national conScription in violation of his trea- ty commitments and occupied the Rhineland. Encouraged because the democracies did not oppose this move, and aggressions in China and Abyssinia by Japan and Italy, Hit Ter began the piecemeal assimilation of neighboring countries.
 After Czechoslovakia was overrun Chamberlain knew there would be no peace. He and Daladier pledged support of Poland. Hitler didn't think the British and French would fight, but this time he was mistak- en, and the forces opposed to world domination by the Nazis finally came to grips with the German war machine.
 The picture was studded with numerous takes revealing Nazi bru- talitieS.
 It concluded with one of Church. ills most eloquent passages, holding out hope to the downtrodden and pledging the last vestige of Hitler and his works would be wiped from the face Of thn eortb

SpecioI Preparation
Soofhes Skin, Saves Time


For men who must shave every day
doctors, lawyers, businessmen
and Others Glider is invaluable.
It is a special cream for daily shaw
ers. 1t is neither sticky nor greasy.
To use Glider, first wash your
face with hot water and soap to
remove grit and oily sebum that
collect on whiskers every "a hours.
Then spread on Glider quickly and
easily with your fingers. Never a
brush.
Glider insfonfiy smoofbs down the
flaky top layer of your skin. 1t
enables the razor's sharp edge to
glide over your skin, cutting your
whiskers close and clean without
seroping or irrifofng your skin. Glider
eliminates much of the irritation
that frequent shaving may have
