that will sweep away former governing
classes, and bring to power what are rather
ineptly described as liberal forces
My own conviction is that the Allies should
keep out of the politics of the countries of \
continental Europe. Until life IS restored
and the processes of representative govern
ment have a chance to operate they should
keep occupied territory finder strictly mill
tary government, entirely impartial and pro-
visional giving order and administrative
services until pormal government can aris'
from the peoples themselves, and the armi,
be wholly Withdrawn.
However, our administration at Washing
ton, and l judge much the same is true al
London, seems TO have poor understanding
. of military government, and is disincfined ~
utilize it. Against it, are arrayed many of our
powerful administrative services, avaricious
to get the control in foreign lands into then
hands, and jealous, not only of one another
but OF army administration.
While | believe the American people have
neither taste nor preparation for attempting
10 solve the difficult internal political problems
of Europe, are deeply concerned that if
we can break the imperial designs Of Berlin
another imperial power should not acquire
general dominion. ! refer 10 Soviet Russia
THERE are views expressed, though they
L not my views that Russia will emerge
from this war the arbiter of the destinies
Of Europe and OF Asia; that she already
possesses the most powerful army in the
world the greatest natural resources ef any
nation the greatest strength in numbers of
any people of Europe Of Asia and that
her advance Will be irresistible and complete,
until Eurasa ls under Russian control.
Now let me say first that I do not believe
any Of these surmises are true Nor do /,
join in the conclusion reached by those who's
hold these views that, it being inevitable that
Russian strength will be irresistible, both over
Europe and in the Far East, We should make
haste to come 70 terms that recognize her
rise 10 this pre-eminence. That in other
words, we should appease Russia in order
that we may not lose her cooperation in
waging war on the Axis enemies. do not

THE, problem is different in different parts OF
i the world and II affects countries diff
ferentIv. Some decisions hardly admit of
difference of opinion. The Norwegian people
are TO have their country restored to them,
and they are fully adequate to take 1t over
as soon as the enemy is elected. But at the
other end of Scandinavia, the problem of Fin
land and its future is complicated. 1t presents
room for great difference OF view between
Soviet Russia and the other Allies.
There need be little discussion about the
Netherlands in Europe. but there is a con-
siderable body of opinion in Great Britain and
in America, which believes that the great
colonial possessions of the Belgian Congo and
the Netherlands Indies should be liquidated,
or their status altered Personally do not
share this view but | realize that this grave
problem of colonial empire must be discussed.
There is no question about the Allied will
TO clear France Of invasion, or TO admit the
aid Of French armies in participating in that
military endeavor But We have already dis
played great agitation of mind Test the Allied
governments back the wrong politica element
in helping to restore the French state.

A 6 SUGGESTED in previous article, the
"A military decisions reached by the chiefs
of government Of the Allied nations at Quebec
were the less difficult part of their consulta-
ton. They involved strategy which was
determined by the counsel of highly qualified
military advisers. They admit of more or less
exact calculation. They doubtless involved
the determination Of new theaters Of opera
ton Of where Allied effort may still remain
defensive and where it will become increas-
ingly aggressive. They involved the appoint
ment of further commanders of Allied forces
in situations where war is to be pressed
These are the type of decisions for which
responsibility must be taken by the chiefs
of state But the war has progressed far
enough to develop military leaders in all
three nations, whose concerted judgment can
be relied on.
On the other hand, there is the strategy
in war that is political The soldier and the
sailor are less interested in this, except so
far as it affects their military missions, and
they cannot take responsibility for weighing
political factors or deciding them. That is
the responsibility of the civilian heads. In
representative government it becomes also a
responsibility/of all the legal representatives
of the people, and of the peoples themselves.

in English speaking countries, has the right
10 be informed and the right TO criticize.

Way to Proceed
When Applying
For Position
By Emily Post

A war bride asks about getting a
job by means of a letter of intro
duction from her present employers.
She explains further: "The letter
they are giving me is to their agents
in another city, where I am going
soon in order to be near my soldier
husband. Please tell me the pro-
cedure for presenting this letter"
The procedure is very simple
You go to the Office and ask if the
person to whom the letter is ad-
dressed is in the office. If he is not,
leave word that you have brought a
letter from Mr.. Smith of New York
and that you will come back. If he
Is in when you return, you hand the
letter and your card at the reception
desk. Or if you go several times
and he is not there, you write your
address on your card and leave it
with the letter. Or if you do not
want to risk having it lost, write on
your card that you have a letter
that Mr.. Smith gave you to deliver
and will his secretary telephone,
naming time when you may pre-
sent it.
Dear Mrs. Post: 1 have recently
received a box of folded cards
"informals," it says on the box-and
they are printed on the front with
Mr.. and Mrs. John K Brown. Please
tell me to what use I can put these
cards and whether I may use them
when my husband is not to be in
cluded.
Answer-These doubled-over visit
ing cards can be used for certain
invitations and short notes but not
to leave when paying visits in place
OF your conventional card. While
not preferable. you can make use of
the cards by crossing Mr.. and" of.
Dear Mrs. Post: My maiden name
was Mary Blank. Then I married
John K. Smith and wrote my name
Mary Blank Smith and then I be-
came a widow. Now I'm going to
marry James l.. Brown. Please tell
me what my new signature should
be.
Answer-Your name is Mary Blank
Brown.

Beauty Economy
Is Possible
At Home
Routine Care With
PROPER Rest Is
Essential
Bv Patricia Lindsay

Even If you are familiar with all
the usual routine methods Of keep
ing your skin fresh and clean, your
hair In shining condition-and your
body revitalized by new exercises,
there Is q surprising satisfaction in
knowing q few little tricks that are
special pick to make you feel
luxurious
After q work-filled day there
must be a little time to relax. This
Is the thing that gives one courage
to 90 on and work with the entire
mind on the job. So don't neglect
your play time but let it be con-
structive play that leaves you more
beautiful.
A special trick for eyes that is
gaining popularity as more and
more women are engaged in tasks
that cause eye strain, is to soak
crescent pads Of cotton in good
eye lotion and to lie down for a
few minutes with the pads on closed
eyes. 1t is surprising how this
seems to relieve strain If done daily.
There are special eye drops too
which may be used occasionally to
give a wonderful sparkle to the
eyes.
Nothing is more heavenly for
tired nerves and a tired back than
to lie in q warm bath, chin deep
in snowy bubbles! True, you could
get along with just a bar Of soap,
but a bubble bath has that some
thing extra that gives both body
and spirit lift. Choose a powder
with an exquisite fragrance especi-
ally pleasing to you. To get good
foam sprinkle it directly under the
tap and run the water as hot and
fast as possible. Later temper it
with cold water.
Using talcum is not luxury. It
gives the skin lovely, satiny feel
ing, prevents chafing, and II you
are engaged in very active Job. 1t
serves as a counter effect against
body odor. 1t has an economy angle
as we'll as being pleasurable. for II
you supplement your favorite per-
fume with talcum scented similarly
your perfume will go further.
II you happen to have one Of the
new short hair styles, you naturally
have resorted to a permanent wave.
If your hair has developed a kind
Of straw-like texture definitely un-
appealing you should ferret out a
cream, slightly medicated, that can
be rubbed right into the scalp to
help condition 1t, and at the same
time make the ends of YOUR perrna-
nent look soft and shiny. Incident-
ally the cream is also very sooth-
ing to hands that have been en-
gagged in manual work, and to skins
that have been dried.
A change of fragrance is almost
like change OF scene. If you can't
take holiday, vary your perfume
for the sake of variety in your
own life. Go places in your imag-
ination on the magic carpet Of
perfume. 1t really is a release from
humdrum things!

Adolescent Wife
All Too Seldom
Ways
Goes Through Life
Without Facing
The Realities
BY Dorothy Dix

DJ DOfOIHV Dlt
Dear Miss Dix: I am "a years old.
My wife IS 81. We have been mar
ried four years and have two boys.
I love my wife and she loves me,
but she is very unhappy and dis
contented because I can't be a ro-
mantle cinema lover all the time
and she glamour girl That is her
idea of what marriage ought to be.
instead of doing housework and
taking care of children.
Now for the last two years I have
not put in less than fourteen hours
day, seven days week, at my
job. Lots of the time working at
night. That doesn't give me much
time to spend with her, or to take
her to places of amusement, and
when I come home I am so dog
tired that the only thing I want to
do Is just to rest. But my wife wants
me to act like the great lovers do
in the movies and tell her how
beautiful she is, and how proud I
and make great fuss over her. I
try to do this as much as I can, but
I can't say it enough for her. She
is forever asking me If I love her,
and II I don't think she is pretty
and SO on and on And If I don't
respond with enough enthusiasm,
she says she made a mistake in
marrying me and threatens to leave.
I try to do everything possible to
be a good husband and make her
happy. but I just don't feel senti-
mental after working hard all night.
But what can man do with a
wife like that? UNCERTAIN.
Answer don't know, unless you
have the patience to wait for her to
grow up and get adult, and that
type of woman frequently never
does. She Is still adolescent when
she is 10 years old, and when she has
false teeth and wrinkles and grand
children she still smirks and ogles
men, fishes for compliments and
wears clothes thirty years too young
for her
She never faces the realities of
life, or considers that she has any
duty toward her husband and child
rem. When her children are babies
she enjoys playing with them as If
they were dolls, but when they are
older she resents them because they
hate her. Her sole aim and ambi-
tlon Is to have pretty clothes, to be
always going somewhere in crowds
and having a good time, and to be
admired and flattered And as she
is even as God made her, we should
not expect more of her than We do
of pet kitten.
