report bearing more than the usual
earmarks of authenticity circulated
in diplomatic circles Thursday thai
Russia has given Finland six weeks
to get out Of the war or face the
consequences.
Finnish quarters in Stockholm
acknowledged that word of the re-
ported ultimatum had reached
them, and it therefore could be pre-
sumed that the information also
has reached Helsinki, though what
means Moscow utilized to warn the
enemy capital was not learned i'm
mediately.
With the Finnish parliament now
in session, the report was expected
to be given serious attention BY
tnat grouys foreign affairs COM
mittee.
Most sources believed Russia
would approve nothing less than
her 1910 frontiers, retaining the
land taken from Finland after
their brief war in 1939-40, and with
occupation of Hangoe at the en-
tra"ee to the Gulf of Finland left

Murphy, he said-but because he
thinks he's a terrific story for a

George was a Wall Street mes

a girl named Juliette johnson,
who had an ambition to become a
great dancing star. He didn't know
thing about dancing. or show
business. His ambition was to be-
come an important man in New

Their first engagement was at
Barney Gallant's old night club in

the Is to 25 age group whose de-
ferment will be recommended By
the Imperial county USDA war
board.
UP to this time the number has
not been large but we are now still
further limited by policies handed
down from above.
El Centro's selective service board
attended our last meeting and we
discussed the new policy decided
it was good. Sure, we would like to
recommend deferment for all agri-
cultural men but that's no way to
win a war. We must find the bal
ance between the needs of the mill
tary and the needs of agriculture.
HOW 1T WORKS
Both need these 18 to 25-year-olds
but agriculture can come closer
to replacing them than the army
can. Perhaps two forties equal one
twenty on the farm but certainly
not in the SolomonS.
Maybe you wonder why it takes
two boards to decide whether a
man should be inducted and maybe
we can explain it.
The selective service boards came
first and got under way on their
large and distasteful job. Soon agri
culture began shouting that it was
MT adequately represented and that
if the army wanted to eat it. had
better call off its draft boards.
That idea seemed to have merit
but it also brought in comp mplications

HONOLULU, FEB. 3-1nlS IS one

erS-and not enough girls.
When the Federal tax collectors
office imported less than two dozen
young women from Washington
the news was spread "a over the
front pages of Honolulu news
papers.
1t has been estimated that there
are $50 men for every woman. This
ratio may be little off, but it
makes little difference.
GETS HIS WOMAN
A lonely 32-year-old Filipino war
worker went to the police detective
bureau, informed the officer in
charge that he had $4,000, and
asked the police TO get him a wife.
He had winning smile-and ten
grand-and he got a woman.
1t has been suggested that the
reason why the men here don't go
mad is that their American ego
ism assures each of them that he
eventually will be the one to wind
up with a feminine companion.
Or maybe they're already crazy.
Right in the face of this woman
shortage a very serious article ap-
peared in one of Honolulu's two
great daily newspaper under the
headline: WHEN YOU ARE
WITHOUT A MAN" Purpose of
this enlightening article was to
help the local women get along
while all the men are gone to war.
