two children at the same time In
spite of family in the wings, they
worked for top billing and year af-
ter year they got it. From Canadian
beer parlor engagement to the big
time vaudeville circuits, Myrtle and
Frank swept through their routines.
1t was a full and happy life and one
about which you will enjoy reading.
The Lost Week End, by Charles
Jackson, is not a happy book, but
it is emphatically one well worth
reading It is vivid psychological
study of a chronic alcoholic. No mat
ter how much it may shock or upset
you, you will find after reading it
that you have acquired a knowledge
you will never forget 1t is forcefully
written and the story moves forward
with speed and heartbreaking truth.
Dan Birnum is someone you know
and care about. His loneliness, his
need to drink, his dangerous hang
overs, his day dreams of himself as
a genius and his actual nightmares,
are unforgettable experiences.
The Secret History of the War,
by Waverly Root, is highly read
able social and military history of
the Second World War and its his
torical antecedents, up to the assassin
alton of Darlan in 1942, The serious
purpose for which the book was
written together with some import
ant revelations and fresh points of
view, provide unquestionable value,
besides the natural enjoyment of get
ting behind the scenes. Readers will
be fascinated by the many inside
stories of events and leaders in all
countries. The book strongly upholds
the principles of Democracy as OPP
posed to Fascism 1t is an absorbing
picture of the contemporary scene,
however some of the views expressed
may be subject to later revision
when all the facts become known.
Clues To ChristObel, by Mary Fit,
is mystery story of ingenious plot

Strange, a successful novelist, has
been dead for a year when her close
friend, Marcia Wentworth, under

Much of the material she wanted to
use was in ChristobePs diaries, which
were in the hands of her queer old
grandmother, who was determined
not to give them up. The diaries be-
came the subject of controversy and
finally the motive for murder. When
they were ultimately read they fur
nished the key to many of the
puzzles and perplexities of the nov
ehst's life and the explanation of her
death.

GOOD READING FOR THE WEEK

Can Do! by William Bradford
HUE, is a vivid first person nara
tive of the Seabees, the one big, new
organization of this war. The Sea-
bees were born of the terrible emer-
bency Just after Pearl Harbor. Men
with a lot of mechanical knowledge
had to be rushed to the Pacific, men
who could fight jungles as well as
Japs, men who could, if necessary,
go into battle with comparatively
little military training In this des-
perate crisis the Navy turned to the
natural fighters, the mountain-mov-
ers who built Boulder Dam, the sand
hogs who tunneled the East River,
the human spiders who spun a steel
web over the Golden Gate. 10000 of
these men volunteered and it was
from this cream of Americas build
ers that the first Seabee Battalions
were formed. This is story that will
make every reader proud of the
American Drawn and brains and
know-how that were able to win the
war of construction hands down and
build the roads" to victory across
the Pacific and the Atlantic.

book of anecdotes, brief tales and

Over period of years Miss Coats
worth's neighbors have told her
many tales Of the countryside and
these she recounts crisply and
charmingly, with a touch all her
own. There are stories of New Eng
land eccentricity and folk humor;
stories and legends of family history,
of former sea captains, hermits and
tramps; stories based on coincidence
and strange freaks of chance. Then
she pictures everyday life, auctions
and church suppers, the country
newspaper, country characters - all
showing how deep the roots go in
any Maine community, how nothing
is ever really forgotten
Hard Facts, by Howard Spring,
author of MY Son, My Son." is
written with the same ever present
humanity, swift action and emotion

Bert admits it was his own

back a minute for a breathing
spell, the fire sprung up twice as
fierce. BY the time the firemen
arrived, there wasn't much that

Bert Loses the War
Single-Handed

From where I sit, there's a
moral in Bert's experience. A lot
of us feel we've got the fires of
this war under control. that
we can relax a little, maybe let
up on buying bonds, donating
blood, or fighting imitation.
Just like Bert lost his fight
against the fire, we can lose this
fight against our enemy if we let
down now. Because war, like
fire, is never over till the last
spark is extinguished.

views regarding self-determination,
the United States Government con-
siders that the detailed steps neces-
sary to the achievement of political
unity in China must be worked out
by the Chinese themselves and that
intervention by any foreign govern
ment in these matters would be in
appropriate. The United States
Government feels, however, that
China has a clear responsibility to
the other United Nations to elimi-
nate armed conflict within its ter
ritory as constituting q threat to
world stability and peace-a re-
sponsibility which Is shared by the
National Government and all
Chinese political and military
groups.

Removal Of Japanese Influence.
The United States has already
been compelled to pay a great price
to restore the peace which was first
broken by Japanese aggression in
Manchuria. The maintenance OF
peace in the Pacific may be jeopar-
died, if not frustrated, unless JAP
anese influence in China Is wholly
removed and unless China takes hel
place as a unified, democratic and
peaceful nation. This is the pur.
pose of the maintenance for the time
being of United States military ant
naval forces in China.

that the present National Govern.

China will be furthered If the basis
|of this government Is broadened to
include other political elements in
the country. Hence, the United
States strongly advocates that the
national conference of representa-
tives of major political elements in
the country agree upon arrange

ments fair and effective repre-

Government. 1t is recognized that
this would require modification OF

United States policy to,Uard
China:
The Government of the United
States holds that peace and pros
perity of the world in this new and
unexplored era ahead depend upon
the ability of the sovereign nations
to combine for collective security In
the United Nations Organization.
1t is the firm belief of this Gov
ernment that a strong. united and
democratic China is of the utmost
Importance to the success OF this
United Nations Organization and
for world peace. A China disor-
ganized and divided either by for
eign aggression, such as that under
taken by the Japanese, or by violent
internal strife, is an undermining
influence to world stability and
peace, now and in the future.
The United States Government
has long subscribed to the principle
that the management OF internal
affairs is the responsibility Of the
peoples of the sovereign nations.
Events of this century, however,
would indicate that breach OF
peace anywhere in the world
threatens the peace of the entire
world. 1t is thus in the most vital
interest of the United States and
all the United Nations that the
people of China overlook no oppor-
tunity to adjust their internal DIFF
ferences promptly by methods OF
peaceful negotiation.
End of Hostilities Urged.
The Government of the United
States believes it essential:
% That a cessation of hostilities
be arranged between the armies OF
the National Government and the
Chinese Communists and other dis
sident Chinese armed forces for the
purpose of completing the return OF
all China to effective Chinese con-
troll. including the immediate evacu-
alton of the Japanese forces.

dustrial potential in repeated heavy
raids.
Recovering quickly from the black
days Immediately after Pearl Har-
Dor, when the Nipponese overran
much of the Pacific, the U. S.
checked the enemy tide in the spring
of 1912, when the American fleet
stopped the Japs' southeastward
drive in the battle of the Coral sea
and then thwarted their eastward
surge at Midway.
From then on, the U. S., building
up tremendous military and mate
rial strength under a unified front
at home, was on the march, with
the Japanese seeking time to con-
solidate their newly won position as
the overruling Asiatic power by bit
ter delaying action in their outposts.
With the navy severing vital Japa-
nese supply lines to these outposts,
and with the ground forces iSolating
enemy units into disorganized resist
ance pockets on invaded islands, the
American advance in the Pacific far
exceeded expectations, with the end
of the European war finding U. S.
sea, land and air forces perched
right on Nippon's doorstep.
Though the main body of Japa-
nese troops had not been touched by
the steady U. S. advances westward,
the American navy's mastery of the
sea lanes as far as the Chinese coast
interrupted the shipment of vital ma
terial to the home islands for in
dustrial processing, and the BIOS
terrific bombardment of manufacture
ing centers greatly curtailed output.
With deliveries of materials cut, and
output dwindling, the effectiveness
of an estimated 100000 remaining
enemy troops stood to be severely
limited.
On top of it all, Russia's invasion
of Manchuria and threat to jap
held China promised to tap the only
remaining important enemy indus
trial source outside the homeland.
