eeived this information from thei parents and
no sooner they are in our vicinity, they have
come to the canteen where they were cheer
fully received and invited to various homes

1t really is more than pleasing to realize
that our effort and hard work which we have
gone through to establish this canteen and
make it a well-known headquarter for our

community of sizeable number of Syrian and
Lebanon descent, would undertake such an
enterprise and follow the step that we have
already taken.
Again, on. behalf of every member of the
Syrian American Society, as well as every
soldier, sailor and marine who has visited our
~canteen, I want to thank you and assure you
that whenever you deem it advisable to give
our canteen some additional publicity it will

After allowing for the above factors however, there would still remain about 34OOOoo persons who woCd require jobs MT Livingston estimates that within six months GOO can be absorbed in the trade and service industries and in plants which require little recon version because they have continued make products similar to those produced in peacetime On the basis of these estimates the total increase in the number of unemployed would approximate 100000.
 If these estimates prove to be correct, the magni tude of the problem of placing those laid off from war jobs will be much smaller in the event of a termination of the in Europe than many persons have feared However, to achieve this relatively satisfactory state of affairs vtaly important that policies adopted which will speed up the resumption ngston emphasizes the importance of expediting transitional adjustments Thus he points out that the number actually given jobs in additional pro- duction for civilians would obviously depend the delays encountered in converting productive facilities Similarly, since this will be a regional problem witE surpuses of labor existing in while cities prevail in others the relative mobility of work will be important Delays in starting projects will also be important and underline the necessity for early and prompt planning in these

TRANSITIONAL UNEMPLOYMENT

Government officials have reported that the end of the war in Europe would 35 per cent cutback in war production In the current issue of the Survey of Current Business published by the Department of Commerce, S. Morris Livingston presents series of estimates showing the effect upon economy of a third reduction in the output of combat munitions Such a reduction would be equivalent to 100000 workers about 10 per cent of the total agricul tura working force. Approximately 100000 additional men may be released from the armed forces. This makes total of 6,20O000 persons who represent the potential increase in unemployment.
 Not all of these workers will be available in the labor market About 100000 of the youngsters old sters, and women who have temporarily joined the labor force a measure will probably withdraw. An additional 500000 expected to return to the farm or become self-empoyed. Unemployment will doubtless be avoided for 100000 by reducing the

EMPIRE POLICIES RESENTED

A few months ago. I would not have discussed this danger in public, but an army of 10,000,000 men does not keep a secret. And every soldier who returns from India is resentfully vocal over the failure of the British Indian army to fight, blaming it on the selfish non-Atlantic Charter policy of the Empire.
 And every U. s. officer who stops at Accra on his way across the South Atlantic learns how the commander of the American air base there has to pay $25 a day rental to the British for the use of each American truck lend-leased by us to your Government.
 And in the Near East, almost every U. s. soldier knows how King Ibn Saud of Arabia asked the American Government for new pipes and bathroom fixtures for his palace and was turned down because these were luXuries and a war scarcity whereupon officials of your Government turned round and secured the bathroom fixtures for King Ibn Saud-through lend

lease
 These are small things, of course, but they are things which Ameri- can soldiers and the American public remember. And they do not help our relations with Great Britain and our hopes of future peace.
 Not so small is your Govern ments insistence on keeping King George of Greece on the throne of that country despite his pre- vious fascist associations, despite the overwhelming opposition of the people he is supposed to rule. Am ericans don't believe in using their armies, their war goods, and their prestige, even indirectly, to keep kings in power when the people of their nations don't want them. That is not why we entered this war. It was to defeat Hitler.

SENTIMENT OF BRITISH
 PEOPLE

I am sure these policies do not represent the sentiment of the British people. Having visited many times in almost every part of the Empire, from Tasmania and Hong Kong to Malta and Burma, and having worked shoulder to shoulder with many British just after the last war, I think I know them.
 And I am certain they would not condone some of the penny pinching shreWdness of your lend lease officials in the Near East, and the blindness of your minis ters, who, forgetting the broader goals ahead, stoop to petty snob-

FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 22


 Late today a strong benefic as pect promises much for admirals, geYerals and statesmen of the United Nations
 HEART AND HOME: Women are under stimulating and inspir ing influences which should aid them in their homes, where the test in courage while beloved ones fight for liberty will be great. This configuration fans the flame of love and loyalty.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Stabiliza- ton of world financial relations will be accomplished after many obstacles have been overcome. As trologers long have foretold agree ments that assure reliance on in ternational banking methods. When peace is finally achieved many diff ferences of opinion regarding inn portant matters will have been overcome.
 NATIONAL IS SUES: Labor unions will manifest strength as the national political campaign pro- gresses and the stars presage sur prising results from the workers votes, which will be cast with de- cisive effect in the final count of party that represents practical postwar readjustments.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: According to the stars, the defeat of Hitlers armies will not eradi- cate from the German people the desire for world conquest Even in hours of deepest misfortune the military spirit will not be crushed. Even while peace terms are under discussion the dream of a third world war will be the principal sclace of a people that has in- dulged in barbaric methods of con- flict.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of more than average good fortune. Changes and quarrels should be avoided. Children born on this day prob ably will be unusually intelligent and exceedingly talented. Many will succeed in public service of some sort.

 Colonel von Scheeger. member of the German general staff and now Allied prisoner of war is reported in a current magazine boasting that Germany will win the for the world "by 1854 at the latest" Reorganization among the other nations will make this possible the Prussan mtarist declares
 Just the predictions of Von Schleeger and his kind futile and ephemeral. They will be re- ceved with laughter by most Americans-just they were received with jeers by those who hold him prisoner. But there is much food for thought in the words.
 The German military cult does not fight single war, does it plan a campaign which ends with surrender and armisce Its ideals of world conquest go and on, fostered by tradition and a culture which insist that Germany day must rule the world perish. If close our eyes to that fact and we have done it time and again place our selves in position stamp out the sparks of battle that will continue to smolder in Berlin even as the tread of soldiers echoes Unter den Linden even after the Allied armies of occupation satisfied that their job is done go marching home again.

with other nations, make abso- lutely sure that our children shall never again fight war of this kind
 But if that reward is denied the American people, then there will be bitterness, a huge armament program, and a withdrawal into the shell of isolation such as the world has never seen.
 And if I am any student of American opinion. some small start toward the disillusionment that followed the last war, which de- feated the ideals of Woodrow Wilson, which left Europe to stew and spoil ana finally to spew up Hitler, already is under way It can be stopped. But we might as well be frank and admit that it has started That is why I am writing this letter.
 We must also be frank and admit that the imperial policies of the British Empire have contributed to this start.

bishness toward conscientious U. S. public servants such as Ambassador Phillips, who tried to do his duty in regard to India
 I am sure the British people would agree that the future peace of the world is more important than Hong Kong or Ibn Saud, or even India Probably that peace is going to require concessions-som at the expense of the Empire, some at the expense of the United States
 In this country, the people are ready to pay their share of the price
 This is a crucial moment in the tide of events when American opinion, if caught and carried for ward by bold and generous inter- national statesmanship, twill go to any lengths for permanent peace. But if disillusioned, it will do just the opposite.
 I hope, Mir. Prime Minister, that you will forgive the frankness of this letter. It is written by one who sat in Europe after the last armistice, saw the hopes of peoples slowly shattered, thought of those who had given their lives.s seemed to hear them m urmur: They promised much; now they give so little toward the goal for which we died"
 That, MT Prime Minister, must not happen again.
 Sincerely and respectfully,

ident said, "We headed for the ] Aleutian islands, 4 days later ar-
 irving at Adak, one of the most
 westerly islands. There we found intense activity at what might be called g nearly completed ad- vance base. It was from there that a great part of the expedi- tions to recapture Attu and Kis- ka started.
 "Adak 2years ago was a bleak, practically uninhabited island, and with other Aleutian islands seemed relatively unimportant in plans for the security of our own continent. You here well re- alize the commotion which fol- lowed the Japanese occupation of Attu and Kiska. Many thought the chiefs of staff in Washington were not paying enough atten- tion to the threat against the AL sska coast. We realized, of course, that such a Japanese threatcould become serious, if unopposed, but we knew also that Japan did not have the naval or air power to carry this into effect. Prepar- ations to throw Japan from the toeholds had been laid even be- fore the Japanese got there. The rest of the story you know It took great preparations and heavy fighting to eject them from Attu, and by the time a great expedition to reeapture Kiska got there the Japanese de- cided that discretion was the bet ter part of vaIor; they decided retirement and retreat were bet ter than hari karl; they aban- doned the Aleutians.
 "The climate at Adak is not

the most inviting in the world
 but 1 want to say a word of ap- preclatlon to the thousands of officers and men of all services who have built this base and other bases in such a short time to the point where the people of the Pacific coast, British Colum- bia and Alaska can feel certain we are safe against Japanese in- vasion on a large scale.
 We were delayed by the fog and rain and had to give up put ting in Dutch Harbor but we did stop at Kodiak, a large island at the end of the Alaska peninsula. Here also the 3 services have completed a very excellent though smaller base and there is actually a small community there. It was the first little town we had seen in Alaskan waters and the first trees. That town, and those trees, made me think of the coasts of Newfoundland. We were told that a number of officers and men at thls base and other ports are considering settl- ing in Alaska after the war. I hope this Is so, because the de velopment of Alaska has only been scratched It is still a country of pioneers. Only a small part of it's mineral resources have been explored, and there IS of course an abundance of fish, game and timber, together with great possibilities in agriculture.
 "I cou d not help remember ing that the climate, crops and other resources are not essential ly different from the northern Europe of Norway, Sweden and Finland and the people of these countries, in spite of cold win ters and darkness, have brought their civilization to a high pros- porous level.
 Alaska is a land of small pop ulation but 1 am convinced that it has great opportunities for those willing to work to help build all kinds of new things in lands"

 Permanent cbasesmustbe obtained, Roosevelt said, to pro I,ct this hemisphere from Alaska ko Chile. Speaking of his trip to Alaska he said:
 "This trip has given ne 8 khance to talk of the social and bconomic future of Alaska with Gov. Gruening. He asked me toI bsure you that the tan which I have acquired in the last few Hays is from the Alaska sun. You who live in the Pacific Northwest ksalize that a line for sea and air bavigation following the great Eircle course from Puget Sound b Siberia and northern China passes very close to the Alaskan boast and thence westward along the line of the Aleutian islands. From the point of view of nation J defense, therefore, our control pf thls route must be undisturb- ed That is a simple statement of the military, naval and air point Ot view, But when we end the Japanese threat there is an excel lent outlook for permanent peace in the whole Pacific area, and therefore 1t is natural and proper Tor US to think of the economic and commercial future It IS log cal that we forsee a great inter 'hange of commerce between our 'hores and those of Siberia and China.

Good-looking Mrs. Edwin H.
Herzog serves both as a Red
Cross Nurses Aide at Columbia
Hospital and as. an interviewer
at the Nurses Aide Recruiting
Office at the Walsh House. Four
days a week she interviews pro-
spective Nurses Aides and two
days week she works at the
hospital. Her training course was
right here in Washington.
A native of California, Mrs.
Herzog attended the Anna Head
School in Berkeley and the Uni
versity Of California. She later
went to the School of Modern
Photography in New York be-
cause photography has always
been one of her hobbies. The
other is raising cocker spaniels,
and she and her husband are the
owners of the famous Alderbrook
Kennels. In fact her husband
shares both hobbies with her, for
he. too, loves amateur photog-
raphy. After Mrs. Herzog studied
the technical end of photography
she gave her husband some
pointers and now both do their
own printing and developing as
well as actually taking the pic
lures.
Before the war brought them
to Washington (Col. Herzog is a
lieutenant colonel in the Army
Air Force and is now stationed
here) the Herzogs made their
home in New York and owned a
farm in Springfield, Mass. They
have a small daughter aged 10
who goes to Potomac School here
and the whole family loves
Washington so much that they
want always to live here. They've
sold the farm in Massachusetts,
and they hope someday to own
a house here, Mrs. Herzog says.
do you still need a lot of
Nurses Aides?" we asked Mrs.
Herzog.
Indeed, yes!" she answered.
For the day classes we need
many, many more, especially for
Gallinger and Providence Hos
pitals. There's a new class start
ing on March ~, and do you
know" Mrs. Herzog asked, "that
the Red Cross Motor Corps sees
to 1t that aides are taken from
the Walsh House to Gallinger
Hospital and returned every day
of the week? So there can't be
any transportation problem for
that particular hospital
