Ing between President Roosevelt
and Prime Minister Churchill to

the gap between the end of the
war in Europe and the proposed
establishment of a world agency
to keep the peace.

press upon Government leaders the
desires of church people for a Just

All, sweet mystery of Lowell

All, sweet mystery of lovel
A reporter of the Empire stood
with mouth agape as he listened
to Miss Louise Bridges, librarian
at the Juneau Public Library, tell
of the recent rush" OH the library
by females ranging in age from
sixteen to sixty, who are going in
strongly" for love stories whether
they be of the "Eyangeline" vintage
or the most modern love "sizzler'
to be heaved off the presses of
publishing houses.
The reporter thought that mas
much as there was a war going
on, the majority of the gals would
be reading up on books dealing
with careers for women.
Queried as to whether Juneau
matrons were interested in these
types OF books or literature dealing
with home economics, etc, he re-
ceived, to use a colloquial ex-
preston, slap in the face" when
he was informed that milady is
giving a wide berth to this type
of literature in preference to ro-
nance and to the psychological
aspects of love in general
Books by authoress vina Del
mar who created more than a mild
sensation by their aH-consuming
love themes, and which caused
many heart throb among the fair
sex back in the hectic days Of
the l920's, are still in great de-
mand.

better they like EN-" says Miss
Bridges. Now you take such a

peated jackson made judicious use
of his gavel at the Indiana 1886
convention which nominated M.
Clifford Townsend for Governor.
He took over as Permanent Chair
man with feeling running high as
some delegates clamored for the
nomination of Townsend's oppon-
ents. jackson cooled off" the con-
vention by recessing it for 20-min-
ute song fest. Result: Townsend's
nomination on the first ballot.
Jackson's friends lauded his ap-
pointment on the ground that he
would bring youth to the national
convention. Some Democratic lead
ers advanced the idea that National
Chairman Robert E. Hannegan had
looked over the Midwest, found the
Republican trend there strong and
decided Indiana was one State in
the area that could be captured by
his party = if the proper prestige
were extended to Sen. Jackson in
his current campaign for Governor
of Indiana.
Fourth Term Man
II Jackson the Democrats found
a supporter for any fourth term
plans of President Roosevelt. The
Senator, speaking at the recent
convention in Indiana, predicted Mr.
Roosevelt would run again and
would win by almost as large a
margin of electoral votes as in 1896.
However, when interviewed after
his appointment as Permanent
Chairman, he commented only; u
presume President Roosevelt will be
our nominee"
OF the convention itself, Jackson
reported plans were being made to
wind it up in three days. He added:
