Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-12-23
IS 1T BECAUSE OF OUR RICH NAT
URAL RESOURCES?

IS 1T BECAUSE or OUR RICH MAI
URAL RESOURCES?
This can hardly be taken as the reason.
There are other sections of the world that are
Just as rich in natural resources as we are. For
example, Europe taken as whole, has natural
resources that are as great as ours, and even
India has tremendous resources despite the fact
that her standards of living are extremely low.
1t might also be observed in passing that
our natural resources were available to the
North American Indians but they did not build
a great civilization.
CAN 1T BE THAT WE WORK HARDER
THAN THE PEOPLE OF OTHER Ma
TONS?
Again the answer is NO" because in most
nations the people work much harder on the
average than we do.
DO WE HAVE MORE NATURAL SKILL,
MANUAL DEXTERITY AND INVENTIVE
GENIUS?
1t could hardly be said that we have
monopoly on natural Skill or manual deXterlty.
The workers Of other nations show great skill
and ingenuity in the use of their tools and
equipment. Some of thenl-notabty the SWISS,
Germans and English-are highly inventive,

and all nations have access to Americas scien-
tfic and engineering accomplishments.
None of the foregoing seems to explain our
economic progress, but the fact remains that
NO OTHER NATION on the face of the globe
has ever achieved OUR LEVELS OF PRODUC-
TION, PROSPERITY AND HIGH STAND
ARDS OF LIVING.
THE REASONS
The real reasons for Americas greatness
may be summarized about AS follows:
I. Freedom of trade.
2. Specialized production.
3. individual initiative.
4. The habit of thrift.
S. Better equipment
s. Efficient management.

son falls the duty of studying medi-
cine. The grandfather's dream must
be realized, but the son becomes
interested in new contraption,
the flying machine. When he has
convinced his father that aviation
is his destiny the First World War
comes. Another Froment is sacri-
feed to the Germans lust for the
fruits Of France.
But the Froments and France
have in them the seed Of survival.
Another generation comes along and
this time the great-grandson of
the original Froment Of the picture
accomplishes the dream that there
shall be doctor in the family. He
is graduated just in time to go of
to the third war with the Germans,
the second defeat.
y 4 X
There are some splendid pieces
of acting to endear the Froments
to those who meet them in Heart
of Nation" One of the best of
them, naturally, is that of Raimu,
to many persons the finest actor in
any language. Raimu is of the first
generation of Froments, a wonder
full roue with a justiflable pride in
the circumstance that he had 1t in
him to leave the farm and conquer
the marts Of trade. It is a superb
piece Of portraiture, a thing OF won
derful comedy and of equally Won
derful wistfulness in its final phases
when the third war of his life has
left him weary, broken old man
who is suddenly aware that all his
triumphs were hollow and that he
would have done better to have fol-
lowed the Froment pattern Of mar
riage and the family.
An equally touching characterize
ton Is that Of Suzy Prim, the won
derful Froment spinster whose sense
OF duty to her family has always
been too deep and unselfish to per-
NIT Of marriage. In two wars she
is a nurse and to each of them she
brings a sense of love and respon-
sibility that earn her devotion. Only
three times in her life, she recalls
at the end, has she been kissed, once
by a little boy who gave her a cat
In the war OF 1871 in exchange for a
kiss, in the First World War by a
priest who bestows upon her a dec
grafton. and finally, in her last
years, she receives the kiss of a
dead man, brought to her by his
faithful widow. It is a splendid
character, perhaps the most i'm
pressive in the narrative, and Miss
Prim plays 1t with an unforgettable
charm.
Louis Jouvet, Jean Mercanton,
Miss Morgan and Boyer also con-
tribute brilliantly to the merit Of

appear for the first time without
the festoons of heavy jewelry which
have become a Distinguishing

necklaces, the earrings and rings.

black net stockings. She has never
heretofore worn hose of any kind

But those stilted sandals will still
be part Of her costuming. Carmen

Bruce Came to Fight
But Stayed to Begin
A Long Friendship
81 the Associated Press

HOLLYWOOD.
Ever feel like conking some
stranger for making an impertinent
remark about you. then after you've
been introduced, find he turns out
to be the best friend you ever had?
Nigel Bruce did.
Thirty years ago the British
actress, Violet Campbell, wrote her
close friend, Basil Rathbone. she
intended to marry Bruce, assistant
stage manager for a touring the
atrical troupe then at Edmonton
Canada. Rathbone, who later Wis
tied Edmonton without meeting
Bruce, admonished her, saying she
ought not to marry such an unim-
portant chap.
That made Bruce mad. He mar
ried the actress and, on his next
trip to London in 1920, decided to
look up Rathbone and give him a
piece Of his mind. Instead the two
instantly became close friends, and
now boast there since has never
been an unpleasant word between
them.
For five years Rathbone, as sher-
lock Holmes, and Bruce, as DR..
Watson, have featured the famous
super-sleuth radio programs, and
now are making their ninth detec-
tive film, "The Scarlet Claw"

MISS MORGAN BACK . FROM NOME VISIT

Miss Mabel Morgan, Supervisor oi Nuses with the U. s. Indian Service has returned to Juneau after ar extensive trip to the Westward.
 Arriving in Nome during the height of the diphtheria epidemic there, which has since subsided Miss Morgan was able to observe the excellent organization of control measures which had been adopted under the direction of Dr. Paul Lindquist, of the Territorial De- partment of Health at Anchorage, and Dr. Thomas Maroon, Deputy Health Officer of Nome. Major Owen, of the U. s. Army. assisted by Capt. Ringe, Capt. Anderson, and Capt. Gregory, also aided im- measurably in the work.
 The laboratory unit of the Army furnished day and night service for examinations of throat cultures and slides of the sick and contacts, Miss Morgan reports.
 Before the arrival of Mrs. Alice Baker, Field Nurse for the Indian Service, Mrs. Margaret Mozee as sisted Mrs. Kitzmiller, Territorial Public Health Nurse for Nome. Mrs. Christine Sorrill, Indian Service Field of Unalakleet, and Miss Mill dred Keaton later worked full time for control of the epidemic
 Miss Morgan states that contact was made with all outlying stations of Seward Peninsula by Dr. Lind quist and the Army physicnans, and many supplies were delivered to these points.
 All necessary precautions were taken to prevent the spread of the disease, the supervisor reports, re- sulting in the fact that no new cases have been reported since November IS.
 Enroute to Nome, Miss Morgan visited the Government teacher, doctor and mission at Valdez, and spent sometime at the Eklutna school. At Fairbanks. she contact ed group of natives and viewed the quonset hut now in operation there for the benefit of transient persons.
 Miss Morgan also stopped ovei at Gulkana where she talked with the natives and visited their school and from there continued to Nulato spending several days with Fiele Nurse Agnes Breen.

REPORT DRIFTERS STILL BLOCKING
 INTO TERRITORY

Too many job-seekers for the positions now open in the Territory are Hooking into Alaska, the United States Employment Service said to- day.
 On one of the latest boats to arrive in Seward were 90 unem- ployed for Anchorage. Upon ar rival in that city, the transients found that hotel accommodations for some time had been inadequate for regularly employed persons there and service organizations were forced to take over and ap- peal to private residents to make room for as many as possible when it was found that cots placed in the basement of the Presbyterian Church would not accommodate the influx.
 The Employment Service says it can do nothing for people coming to Alaska without proper clearance from their last job. Many of these drifters, they said. have left vital defense jobs, hoping to secure em- ployment in Alaska.
 Construction projects in the Ter ritory are rapidly nearing comple-
