1 certain facts regarding John Foster Dulles, the man selected by Gov Thomas E. Dewey to deal with Secretary Hull on the all-important problem of postwar peace.
 Inadvertently one of these col umns may have given the wrong impression.
 It was stated on September 25 (26 on the Pacific Coast that it was through his law firm that Dulles got mixed up indirectly with the America First Committee" The impression was conveyed that Dulles did not know too much about, or sympathize with, the fact that a member of his firm had drawn up the incorporation papers for the New York branch of Am erica First.
 Further information is now in the possession of this column, which changes the picture. The records of the America First Committee show that in February, l94l, Janet A. Dulles, wife of MT. Dulles, contributed $250 to the America First Committee. The rec ords also show that in May, 194l ,l.a oo,o+rih,,tal ap additional conn DULLES DENIES ISOLATIONISM
 Finally, on November 5, 1941, just one month before Pearl Harbor, the records of America First credit a contribution from John Foster Dulles" of $500. On that same date, Edwin S. Webster, Jr., partner in the investment firm of Kidder, Peabody, and secretary of the New York Chapter, received letter from Mrs. Dulles saying that she had told Mrs. Cram, the night be- fore, that she would match her contributions.
 On the same day, November 5, MT. Webster wrote back to Mrs Dulles thanking her for helping to meet the cost of the rally. (The America First Committee had held big Lindbergh rally at about that time.)
 Last summer, when queried about the fact that his firm had incor- porated the New York Chapter ot America First, Dulles was quoted as saying: No one who knows me and what I have done and stood for consistently over 37 years of

campaign. Now we have another big job coming up the Sixth War Loan
 Alaskas quota will be less than during the Fifth War Loan but Alaskans should be able to surpass the amount invested last time. The National War Fund drive was just warm-up for Fletcher who will also be chairman for the Sixth War Loan in the Gastineau Channel area
 Juneau and Douglas quota is announced as $685. 000 and the quota for Alaska has been set at $250000O a half million dollars less than the quota last June.
 The drive is scheduled to open November 20 and to end December 16.
 Some fear that with the accumulated successes of our military operations the people have become more complacent and relaxation of financing efforts will not prove harmful This is naturally most dangerous attitude. German resistance has stffened and the war probably will go through the winter. The war in the Pacific still has long time to run and if that time is to be shortened it will be because all of the munitions and materiel needed will be furnished Much still is needed in the Pacific.
 We suggest that if you feel your purchase of war bonds will cramp your style in purchasing gifts for Christmas that you give war bonds for Christmas war bonds stamps

PROFESSOR NEVER FINISHED GRADE SCHOOL

Democratic Representative Mike Mansfield of Montana will go to China on confidential mission for the White House immediately after the election. Completing his first Congressional term, Mansfield is one of the handful of Americans who speaks Chinese. He was for 10 years a professor of Latin American and Far Eastern history at Mon- tana State University, even though he failed to complete the eighth grade of grammar school and never went to high school.
 Mansfield left school in the eighth grade to join the Navy in 1918, when he was Is years old. He served overseas for 10 months, then enlisted in the Army for year. Completing his Army hitch, he signed up with the Marine Corps, and was stationed in the Far East, where he learned to speak Chinese. Later he became a miner in Mon tana, studying by himself until he was able to enter the Montana School of Mines in 1928 Now he is both a professor and member of Congress.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER T

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER
 Conflicting planetary aspects are active today. The morning hours are more favorable to important matters than time in the afternoon For many early good news may change by evening.
 HEART AND HOME: A few women with political ambitions will attain offices but the trend will be toward retirement to home duties Many war workers also will be in- fluenced by aspects that are deemed reactionary. Wives and mothers will gladly resume house. hold tasks which are revealed as of supreme importance.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Although this will be a quiet day in the marts of trade the outlook for the future is good. There is a sign of great promise for air-borne com merce as we'll as for our merchant marine.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Disappoint- ment for some legislators who have long served the nation is forecast in election returns. However, the stars presage great good fortune for the United States in coming months. Harmony and unity in postwar plans are indicated.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR IS: Venus and Jupiter eliminating at Tokyo denote artful peace offers and new schemes of treachery. Pro- longed fighting in the Pacific war is prognosticated but it will mean steady accumulation of overwhelm- ing victories and the final oblitera- tion of the Nipponese Empire.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of hap piness and success. Reunions with relatives are predicted
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be individual, independent and clever. Great vitality is fore seen.

BRAZILIANS ADMIRE ARGENTINA

Other Latin Americans are di- vided. Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru sym pathize with Argentina. Officially Brazil does not. But actually the Brazilian Army, plus many of the Brazilian people, are roofing sym pathetically for the one country south of the Rio Grande which has successfully thumbed its nose at the Colossus of the North and got away with it.
 Nothing succeeds like success, es- pecially in the Latin American mind. The. State Department adopted only halfway measures with Argentina; snubbed her dip lofnatically, but made her pros porous economically by continuing to buy meat. The Argentines didn't care much if they were snubbed as long as they were prosperous.
 Result is that many good neigh bors," though not liking Argentine FasciSm, enjoy seeing U.. 5. di- plomacy come to grief.
 NOTE = Meanwhile, the United States is less equipped to handle things in our own hemisphere than ever before in two decades Secre- tary Hull is sick His best Latin American experts were friends of Sumner Welles and were given the gate after Welles resigned.
 NE WYORK'S IDEA OF IT
 At a recent State Department press conference, a newsman asked acting Secretary of State Ed Stet- tinius:
 Have you seen the literacy test asked by New York State of first voters?"
 "No," replied Stettinius.
 Argentina is the country in South America most like the United States" the newsman replied.
 Stettinius laughed good -naturedly Let me see that" he said. I'd like to have it."
