Moreover. they do not have

are used 10.
This is not the fault of the
French They would love to have
the beautiful materials they have
always had up 10 the war, but il
just is not here for them
Every piece Of material in this
country is synthetic.
Believe me, American women

are so cold it is almost impossible
for the girls to nold pins and

NEVER COMPLAIN
They never complain, and when
I said l did not see how they
were able to cope with this cold
they Just laughed and said:
I'VE have to learn TO stand
IT,"
These new collections are much
better than the fall ones.
This was explained to me by
the creators, who say the designs
will be better and better as time
goes by because they now design
as they used to, due to their new
freedom.
We women in America must not
sit back and dream of Paris
clothes and want them because,
even if we could get them, it
would be impossible for our dress
makers 10 make them.
Our government will not allow
Paris creations 10 be made be-
cause of the abundance Of material
used in them.

UNC GRADUATES
HEAR ATTORNEY

CHAPEL HILL, June 25.-(P)-
Graduates. of the University OF
North Carolina. numbering 1865,
were told today that they must
muster courage and faith to pre-
serve the peace for generations to
come. Delivering the Universitys
sesquicentennial commencement
address, Kemp D. Battle, Rocky
Mount attorney and UNC alumnus,
declared, che plan of Dumbarton
Oaks, supplemented at San Fran
cisco, CLOVIS with promise, but it
is, after all, the first step in a
long and tedious process. We
must accept it and through the
years strive to perfect it. Around
that goal cluster the brightest
hopes of mankind.
Chancellor Robert B. House pre-
sided at the Kenan Stadium ex-
ercises and John D. Waldroup. OF
Hayesville, class president, re-
sponded to Battle.
Governor R. Gregg Cherry, pre-
sentlng the diplomas, praised the
influence of the University upon
the progress and development OF
this state and concluded, there
is no substitute for strong, i'm
provement."
Honorary degrees were con-
ferred upon Rep. Robert L. Dough-
ton, chairman of the House Ways
and Means committee; Robert M.
Hanes, Winston-Salem banker and
former president of the American
Bankers association; President
John L. Newcomb, of the Univer-
sity of Virginia; DR.. Adelaide L..
Fries, archivist of the Moravin
Church in America, and author;

of the separation of powers, and
that it could easily cause confusion
if the party control changed at the
mid term elections and a new
Speaker belonging to the opposi-
ton party became the heir appar-
ent. But these objections would not
matter if Mr.. Truman's proposal
were adopted now as a stopgap
measure.
The risk could also be covered
by his appointing a new Secretary
of State, especially if this were
done with the understanding that
the Congress would legislate as
soon as the problem of the success.
sion can be explored and debated.
The permanent problem, 1t
seems to me, may be defined as
follows: When the President dies
or is incapacitated, the Vice-Presi-
dent succeeds him. Then there is
a new President. But there is no
Vice-President. Therefore, the So
luton of the problem will be found
in deciding how to choose a new
Vice-President.
Mr.. Truman argues for the prin-
ciple that no man should become
President who has not been passed
upon by the people of the country
That is, obviously, the sound prin'
ciple, and the way to apply it I'm
equivocally would be to provide for
the election of a Vice-President as
soon as possible after the office Of
Vice-President has become vacant
There is no particular reason why
this could not be done in six weeks,
and in ne interval the Secretary
of State could stand by to be, ir
case of emergency, Acting Presi
dent until the election of the new
Vice-President. There is some rea'
son to think, though the language
is obscure, that something like this
may have been the original intent
of the authors of the Constitution
In any event, we must bear in
mind that nothing is so essential
to orderly government as an undjs-
puted and universally accepted line
of succession to the highest office
in the land.

WAR LOAN PASSES
20 BILLION MARK

WASHINGTON, June Is - R -
The mighty Seventh" War Loan
drive rolled past the 2O-billion'

Treasury Secretary Morgenthau
said sit would appear that we are
going to set a new high in total
sales for the seven war loans to
date
The record is $21 ,261, 100000 in
the Sixth War Loan last winter.
More Importantly Morgen-
thau said, "sales to individuals
now have broken the all-time rec
ord in that category. Individual
sales are $6,959, 000,000 The indi-
vidual record was $6,351 ,000,0 900 in
the Fifth War Loan year ago.
The secretary said, however, in
a statement that higher goals had
been set for individual participa-
ton in this drive than ever before
and there is 'still much work re-
manning to be done by volunteers
throughout the country"
The Individual quota is $1,000,
100000 in this drive which ends
Saturday with the accounting per
cd running on through July 7.
Sales of series E bonds the
popular bonds for small investors
are 1885, 900, 900, against an z
bond quota of $4,000, 100000. E
bond sales are part of the indi-
vidual total.
Morgenthau said total sales at
the close of business today are $40,
$50, 900, 900. OF that amount, cor
poratiors have invested $685..
900, 900.
The E bond sales now are 70 per
cent of the quota. The greatest E
bond sales Of any drive amounted
10 $3,187, 000,0 900 in the Fourth War

TODAY and TOMORROW
By WALTER LIPPMANN

The difference of opinion about
how to designate a successor to
President Truman proves how nee
essary it is to do something
promptly about the Presidential
succession. If when the problem is
only theoretical, as it is now, there
are such divided opinions, we can
see that the risks of national dis
unity and world wide confusion
would be very great indeed if un-
happily the office of President be-
came vacant again. Mr.. Truman S
proposal may not be the best pos
sible one. But there can be no
doubt that he had to make def
mite proposal, and that the Presi-
dent and Congress owe it to the
country to settle the succession
promptly-that is, before Mr.. Tru-
man goes abroad.
This means either that Congress
should legislate, or, if Congress
does not, that the President should
appoint as Secretary of State a
man recognized as having the
qualifications for President. Either
of these ways of settling the prob
lem would be a satisfactory stop.
gap. A final and permanent settle
ment need not be made in a hurry
AS soon as Mr.. Truman's success.
sor is designated clearly, Congress
and the country can take the time
to deliberate carefully on the per
manent remedy for this curious
defect in our constitutional system.
The immediate risk could be
covered by Mr.. Truman's proposal.
For while it is highly debatable
whether the Speaker of the House
should be the normal successor, il
just happens to be the fact that
Mr.. Rayburn is an experienced and
widely trusted public servant. The
objection to making the Speaker
the normal successor is that this
is inconsistent with the principle
