The Living Stressed

he Living Stressed
To the Editor of The Star:
Nearly month ago The Star pub
lished Senator Downey's views concern
ing the drinking fountain and shelter
at Seventh street and Pennsylvania
avenue NV.
The Senator called the shelter
montrosity of art, and wanted to have
it removed. Did he want to give WASH
ingtonians better drinking fountain?
The Senator wants the Commission
ers to accept statue or monument to
replace the monstrosity.
But Washington has many useless
statues and monuments and too few
useful ones.
When a citizen of Washington is
thirsty, will the monument give him
a drink of water? When it is raining,
will the statue shelter as many people
from the shower? The needs of the
living are more important than monu-
ments to the great

Expresses Doubt About Russia

Expresses Doubt About Russia
To the Editor of The Star:
read recently that lease-lend for
Russia may end, now that Russia has
not more wars on her hands.
To me it seems that should be done
Immediately; also, that we should give
Russia no assistance or loans of any kind
until we know what Russia will do to
help us defeat Japan and what Rus
sia intends to do about European
boundaries and bases for the United
States.
Now is the time for the United States
to play its trump cards-money, food
and manufactured goods.
give Russia due credit for what
she has done to help defeat Germany,
but as an American citizen I believe
we Immediately should cease lease-lend
to prevent increasing of our huge ma
tional debt.
Russia has been acting mysteriously-
to put it mildly-about Poland, the
Balkan countries, and in its handling
OF news from other countries.
Now also is the time for Russia to
"play ball" honestly and in a big way
with the United States. Otherwise no
aid for her of any kind. 1t certainly
is possible that Russia may plan on
embarking on course of world DOM
ination of her own.
