Spring Is Almost
Here

According to the calendar Spring
is at hand, and has been for several
weeks, but in reality it is just
ahead. Pleasant, clear days fill US
all with a desire to be out doors
working in the garden or going fish
ing, or maybe to sit in favorite
nook with a good book to read,
varying the reading by occasional
stops just to look at the mountains
and plan trips back into their in
teresting Businesses.
Yes, Spring is just around the
corner, and before we realize 1t,
the season of new birth will cover
the land. While we are waiting for
this enhancing time to come, it is
we'll to be planning those menus
which will mean so much to us as
we enjoy the balmy, beautiful out
of doors-whether it be working in
our garden, fishing and hiking in
the hills, or just lying around en-
| ioying a good book or magazine
and the seasons beauties. When the
outdoor season gets here our meals
will be an important part in our
enjoyment
| But meanwhile, even before this
enchanting Spring arrives, we wish
good things to eat, food that is
tasty and nutritious but still mod
crate in cost, food that is of the
highest quality and easy to serve.
\ Sno-White trys at all times to give
you just this kind of food-the
food you want, and courteous, care

 The Willy Peron gave the call for the general strike last night from the balcony of the Argentine White House. where he and President Edelmiro Farrell embraced before 5000 cheering adherents gathered to rail his return to power.
 ~Day of GlOry''
 Peron said all workers should join in the strike in fitting celebration of this day of glory" exactly one week after his deposal by demo- cratic elements as vice-president War Minister and Labor Minister.
 Tn a counter-coup so swift 1t ap- parently left his opponents speech less, Peron yesterday swept both his rivals and a proposed civilian cabinet from power and prepared to have a cabinet of his own choosing installed.
 He did not rejoin the govern nent himself, but apparently will be content to maneuver behind the scenes while preparing to run for the presidency in general elections scheduled for April. Under current conditions, he appeared to have a good chance of being elected.
 Buenos Aires transport system was the first public utility to be effected by the general strike. Shortly after midnight, all buses and trolley cars ceased service.
 Electric lights, telephones and the city's water system still were oper- ating at g a. rn., but 1t was believed they, too, might fail later today

 The second step was consolidation of their control.
 The third step was foreign aggres- sion, plans for which started with secret rearmament between 1883 and 1885 and Germany's withdrawal from the League of Nations and disarmament conference in 1883. The first move was Austria and then CzechoSlovakia hloodless conquests.
 Then came the first aggressive war against Poland, followed by war against Britain and France, war against Norway and Denmark, war against the Netherlands and Bel- gium and Luxembourg, war against Yugoslavia and Greece, war against Russia, and, finally, war against the United States.
 Meeting Dates Named
 The indictment named the dates of meetings of high Nazis which planned each of Gernany's aggres- sive steps - sometimes months in advance.
 The indictment was signed by Jackson for the United States, Francois De Menthon for France, Hartley Shawcross for Great Bri- tain, and R. A. Rudenko for Sovief Russia.

 The newspaper La Prensa said three vessels of the Argentine Navy river fleet left Buenos Aires short ly before midnight with Vice-Ad- miral Rector Vernengo Lima, one of the leaders of the abortive coup which deposed Peron a week ago, aboard one of them, the mine sweeper Drummond.
 Accompanying, the Drummond, La Prensa said, were the gunboats 1ndependencia and Rosario.
 All transport -busses, trolley cars and taxies--in Buenos Aires al- ready had halted in response to Peron's call for a 24-hour general strike as @ show of strength. Other public utilities were expected to be struck soon.
 Reports from the interior said the general strike was complete in both Rosario and Santa Fe.
 Shooting broke out in the munici- pal Fruit and Vegetable market in BuenoS Aires today when Peron- ists tried to prevent other employees from working.
 First reports said six persons were killed and 40 wounded The police controlled by Peron--did not in- tervene.
 Earlier, at least eight persons were shot and wounded seriously after Peronists laid siege to the building housing the -democra- tic newspaper Critica, largest af- ternoon daily in the capital.

achieve perfection in the first draft, and at the same time tried to please everyone. If they had, there would be no San Fran cisco Conference scheduled now. The Dumbarton Oaks Conference would still be sitting, and staring at blank paper. As President Roosevelt has said, the decisions of Dumbarton Oaks and San Francisco will have to be changed and amended through the years.
 The United States Constitution, which many regard as the perfect charter of free government, was the fruit of com promise and bitter wrangling In its original form it was incomplete and in- adequate. But no substitute could better its basic purpose and principles. And so it was adopted. And because the Ameri- can people dared to change this ConStitu- ton as well as live under it, original mis- giving has given way to present reverence.
 The purpose and principles outlined at Dumbarton Oaks are as sound and admir- able as those outlined at Philadelphia in 1787. If we should abandon them because the details of their application are not per- feet, there is no alternative but mutual suspicion, the poverty of economic and spiritual isolation, and the expense of a great military machine which would have to be ready at all times to fight any or all of the world.

End of a Legend

In a burst of academic humor, the dean of Balliol College, Oxford, invited a distinguished visitor from Hollywood to address the student body The visitor was MT. Samuel Goldwyn, in England on lend-lease mission.
 MT. Goldwyn has long been famous as the implacable foe of the Kings (and Oxford's) English. But he played his as- signment at Oxford straight. Not only did he avoid all Goldwynisms, but he took the pledge.
 "For years I have been known for say ing include me out,'" Mr. Goldwyn con- fessed, "but today I am giving it up for ever."
 This is heavy news. We have long suspected that Goldwynisms were the ere ation of press agents and Hollywood col umnists But these noval misconStruc- tions of well-worn phrases were richly amusing, even though the alleged creator was innocent.
 Now MT. Goldwyn, by his renunciation, has destroyed the Goldwyn legend. Not only that, he has cut himself off from reams of free publicity, all for the sake of dignity. In Hollywood, that would be considered treason or madness. It just goes to show you what the atmosphere of Oxford can do to a man.
