New Homes at Wars End

One of the most definite trends in plan- ming for peace is evidenC ed by the great number of persons both in and out of the armed services who have indicated a strong desire to build new homes around a hobby or avOcation. The services have turned our young men into nation of skilled craftsmen and technicianS. When the war ends, they intend to use this new found ability to create for themselves all of the comforts they have had to relin- quish while in camp and on the fighting front.
 Thousands of women likewise have been agreeably surprised to .ilId that they have a natural mechanical bent, which has been proven by their skillful work m war plants making many diversified products. Fact finding surveys directed at future home builders by the research organization of Delta Manufacturing Company of Milwaukee, designers of power tools for the homo workshop, have brought out the fact that more than two-thirds of these persons will devo'n sizeable space to a room where they
 fabricate wood, plastic and metals aS ;. as carry on proper maintenance anu ie- pair of their homes
 Home owners have found that Tor fraction of their normal cost, they can build numerous articles for the home' ranging from storm windows, shelves, bookcases and kitchen cabinets to excel lent furniture for the entire house. With a small number of power tools such as table saw, drill press lathe and sander repairs and additions to the house can be completed economically m proies.- sional manner in a fratcion of the time It would take to do the job with hand tools
 Others state that they want to use thelr home workshop to start small business making cabinets, novelties, toys, lamps and multitude of small articles of wood, plastic and metal for which reaoy retail market exists. These persons De- lieye that a workshop for either hobby or small business establishment should grow as the hobby or vocation develops. 1t would not be profitable to start of m full flower as the main joy in any work. shop or business is in the development of abilities and addition of equipment as time goes on or the business prospers'

probably will come before a worldwide peace organization is set up So any step that the Western Hemisphere nations might take would be of great import ance: a successful one could be incor- porated into world agreement; failure would serve as a horrible example.
 Thus far the State Departments acc tions have been of sort to arouse public admiration. Secretary Hull's dealings with Vichy France and Franco's Spain were criticized severely, but were de- tended as expedient moves which has tened victory and saved lives. There IS no reason for a similar attitude toward the Argentine regime, which has been irritating and hurtful to the war effort, but is not in a position to inflict such immediate and vital damage as the pro Axis European governments.
 The State Department has made 1t abundantly clear that our dissatisfaction is not a cloak for interference in Argen- tins's internal affairs: In fact, our lrl- dictment of the governments Fascist, miltaristic complexion is only secondary. The primary indictments of the Farrell Peron government are these: It has vio- lated it's country's pledge to support the war against the Axis, thus striking "powerful blow" at hemispheric cooper ation; it has openly and notoriously given affirmative assistance to enemies of the United Nations"
 The growth of Fascsm in Europe has taught an obvious lesson. Heeding 1t, the State Department has spoken early and decisively. A change of Argentine attitude in response to these words will augur we'll for peace in years to come
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-08-03
The Western Hemisphere

Relations with Argentina have been m bad shape for several years. Matters got worse when the United States entered the world Wan Just prior to that perloo the United States discriminated - Tor cause-against meat products from Ar pentina. The Southern Republic resent ed the implication that its beef was ln- ferior to tke products of the North, ana got very nasty about it. By the tune the war came on, the position Of Argen- tina as an exporter of agricultural prod ucts was in a bad way. About that tune the British found it advantageous to trade in other markets.
 Matters went from bad to worse untll the political parties and factions oi AT, gentina began to split, and then to pun off small revolutions, Argentine exports are now only about 45 per cent Of the ie4O levels. Foreign commerce has SUI fered, both in exports and imports so that in the latter case Argentina is only receiving about half as much as the ls4o volume.
 Argentina has made SO many bad races at Uncle Sam, that Washington iihally advises diplomatic isolation Of Argentina Argentina acts as though 1t IS abused, All this despite the fact that most oI ner growth and prosperity resulted from Ihe Monroe Doctrine, which protected Ihe tall of the Hemisphere for more than century and half, ..,,
 Argentina may take tumble to ltseli' and begin to realize that she must col' laborate with the United States, or con tlnue to take the consequences, Mexico used to act just like that in the hrst World War, but the people across the Rio Grande are happy since they de- veloped appetites for Good NeIghnoF sweets,

'Parick Henry of the Philippines"

The death of Manuel Quezon, president of the Philippines, brought to a close the lifetime of a militant spirit whose pri- mary ambition was for the independence Of his native land.
 Often termed the Philippines Patrick Henry, he was at all times the fiery torch of freedom that stood forth throughout the Pacific sovereignty Of the United States. Not always proven right in his demands for independence for his people and oftentimes bitterly opposed by those within his own party, nonetheleSs, ally and foe, alike, never questioned the mans sincerity of purpose. Personally ambitious as are most leaders, his desire for his country's freedom was always foremost.
 Elected as president oI the Philippines in 1885, he had been the leader who firmly established the rights Of his peo- pie to a promised freedom when he Suc- cessfully had passed in our Congress the Tydings-McDuffie Act promising of the eventual independence of the Philippines.
 From that date on, the fight for the full fruits of freedom was carried on by Manuel Quezon with a zeal and vl9or which at times was known to carry him beyond the limits of political temperance, so eager was he to bring to his people the cherished attibutes of Self-rule.
 His was the bitter need to flee hlS homeland when the Japanese invaders entered the Pacific He departed only after General MacArthur persuaded him that he would be of more value to the struggle by maintaining his liberty of movement.
 He will be revered by his people as a great leader who championed their rights and liberties and died militant hgure' his end hastened by the vigorous efforts he brought to the cause.

The State Department Speaks Up

The effect of our State Departments uneQuYoeal and categorical damnaIlon of the present Argentine governments rolicy will be watched with interest TOT several reasons, It may decide the lm' mediate fate of Pan-AmTlean solidarity as well as the future of the Farrell'Peron regime And 1t may also provide pat tern or preyleW of the manner in which the postwar world will deal with nations of aggressive tendencies, This last would be particularly true if the present denial of hemispherlc recognition should fail to alter Argentine policy No one hopes tkat 1t will fail, But If t should, then something further must be done Economic isolation would probably come first, despite the hardship it would work on this country and Britain. And II that were unsuccessful, military action would not be an impossible eventuallty Tn such a course of events the American governments, led by the United states W0uld have to lmprovIse For II lhe Argentine situation does not get better quickly, 1t may get worse.

Banishing a Bromide

Coincident with the War Manpower Commissions curtailment Of hotel service comes a proposal from Glenwood J. Sherrard, president of the American Hotel Association, that all employees of businesses dealing directly with the pub lie forthwith stop using that irritating phrase Don't you know there's a war on?"
 The phrase, Mr. Sherrard points out, is no excuse for poor service. IL also mieht he said that poor service is Iio eX- Cuse for this ill-mannered retort by em' ployes. ..o
 One possible solution might be for the customer to be actively conscious of the fact that there is a war going on. ana that he can't expect peacetime service A little more understanding and tewer complaints about things that can't be helped might go long way toward ban ishing Don't you know there's war onP" to the limbo it deserves.

NEW PARTY BULBS NEEDED
iHsrtGord conrantD


 The basic question arising from the ilnpasse in Republican political circles. resulting in the resignation Of ]. Kenneth Bradley as chairman Of the Republican State Central Committee. is not whether Cover nor Baldwin or Mr. bradley is right. but whether 1t is not time for some new Party rules based on common sense. If such rules emerge from the present deadlock, its deplorable as- poet yill be greatly mitigated.
 First, the Party should adopt a rule prohibiting the State Chair man from serving also as National Committeeman. The Party Is not so baTds ID for men and women of ability that it cannot creditably fill both posts with different indiyid. lials. Moreover, the concentration Of so much political power ip one per- son. especially if the national ad- miDistFati0p is now to come into the hands Of the Republicans, can work no good for the Party's interests. MF, Bradley's willingness to Feltp- quisb one Of these positions, the State ctlairmanshiD, is in itself necv Ognitiop Of the desirability Of d. yorciDg one from the other
 The Republicans should also adopt rule allowing their nominee for the Governor the privilege Of selecting the chairman Of the State Central Committee, This is the practice ip national politics, At present the Committee fills the position. h presidential election years t acts Immediately after the State convention which selects 6elev gates to the National Convention, and iD off-yeaT elections after the convention which D0Wilaates the State ticket, gt Is obvious that at times the choice Of the Gtste Gen. tFaI Committee may be uDaeeept. eble to the candidate for the eoy- eFDoFsbip, Party harmony during the campaign and through the eliev eeeding months would be fartheEe6 by placing the selection lp the hands Of the gubeFnstoTlsl nomI- nee.
 Finally, this would be Q sound de- Vel0pmept in the field Of practical politics, It would 0byiate wiaat hes too frequently happened in Repsb. lieaD circles selection by the State chairman Of . candidate eaiisfaetcFy 10 himself, That process should be Feyersel, and now b the 0ppogtune time to do it.

Views Of The Press
FEWER CIGARETTES
Ghew York sunD


 With increasing frequency sinok@ CTS are confronted with evidence that at real shortage of cigarettes Is at hand. Often a user is told that shop is completely out of the brand he fancies. Even ofteper he finds that whereas he formerly could buy a carton or two without question he now must DC satisfied with one or twO packs,
 The war has greatly increased the already heavy demand for cigs aEettes. Consumers have more money with which to buy them; some smoke moro ip an elfOrt to quiet frayed nerves; the Army is making heavy iproads on available supplies: under lend-lease We are trying to filI much Of the gap caused by the haltipg of production Of t0b- accO and manufacture Of cigarettes abroad; cigarette factories are hav- ing trouble holding labor; contain CTS are scarce, But there are other factors. too. 4 major one is the fact that 1t has been q governmental policy to limit production Of tobae- co. Even after the war had begun greatly to increase the demand, qu0- tas for production were raised only 10 per cent, Tp the light Of this, the OniIs does not belong wholly on the state Of war. Either there has been Q lack of foresight ip planning to meet the worlds demand or the master planners decided that peo. pie smoke too much apyway-that tobacco culture should be sub0rdip- ated to other production, Neither hypothesis is likely to satisfy that man or woman to whom the tobac~ c0Dist gives excuses instead Of cig' aEettes.
