A thick shroud Of mystery has
been drawn around the blond,

peared on the Balkan scene three
years ago and now is recognized
with awe by President Roosevelt
and war department heads.
ONE MAN KNOWS
However. the New York Jour

today. this mystery may be solved
by one man who was Rudolph
Bakers political mentor during
Bakers eight years OF Communist
activity in the United States.
This man is a former agent of
the Communist Internationale. an
intimate OF Josef Stain, the Rus
Elan dictator and one of the three
top-ranking leaders Of the Com

Connecticut teachers complained
the girls wore their dresses too Ioxsl
This younger generation is better
balanced than its elders give it
credit for. l have talked at a lot of
high schools since that first one and
l find these girls want to know why
there is starvation in the midst OF
plenty, why wars are necessary.
They want to plan world where
they are not. No more thoughtful
letter could come from one of
my contemporaries than the one
which have quoted.
One teen-ager came to me not
long ago to ask for a "teen-age can
teen" for servicemen. Lots of the
boys are only seventeen. eighteen
and nineteen" she said. They'd
feel more at home and have more
fun with girls sixteen and seventeen
than they do at the canteens with
girls in their twenties. Why can't we
have a canteen to entertain these
boys?"
Isn't that straight thinking?
Let Them Help
They want to do something real
for the war effort. Buying Bonds
and collecting scrap satisfy their
grade-school brothers and sisters
and too often the grownups - but
it's not enough for them.
We've got to give bobby-soxers
a bigger part in this greatest of wars.
Form clubs where they can discuss
their plans and problems - where
they can talk of world affairs, not
in a classroom manner. Let these
kids learn more about the lives of
other girls and boys all over the
world.
This is an air-minded generation.
They are going to be closer to our
foreign cousins by hours than we
were by days.
The teen-age canteens that have
sprung up all over the country are
an indication that these kids are gre
garious. They want get-togethers.

At my first appearance, in a high

Orson had drawn the Frank Sinatra

They Paid Attention
TALKED to them seriously about
the world at war and the problems of
the young people of today. That my
guess was right. was proved by their
rapt attention, by their many qties-
tions and by letters like this:
MY dear Miss Maxwell:
was there last night because l
heard that Orson Welles was speak
ing. l admit l went just to see him.
But that doesn't mean l don't
care about anything except Orson
Welles and Frank Sinatra. We're
not intellectual morons. as last
nights speakers seemed to suspect.
We're just kids who are living in a
pretty rotten time and are trying
to make the best of being young in a
world torn apart by war, for this is
our last childhood.
We really care what becomes of
this mess the world is in now, and
we'd like to see that another mess
doesn't spring up from this one.
If only adults would stop look
ing down upon us and instead,
help us to find ourselves!
Thank you for the tone of equal
ity with which you alone spoke to us.

Camera Thief Is
Made A Fair Offer

Paul C. Chicarell of Rockville re-
ally has faith in human nature.
Last Tuesday while his car was
parked in Washington a valuable
35-mm camera was taken from it.
Now Mr.. Chicarell is making the
person who removed the camera a
fair offer, to wit: If he will kind
ly return said camera Mr.. Chicarell
will give him another.
The reason for this novel offer,
according to Mrs. Chicarell, is that
there were colored films in the
camera just used for taking pic
lures of their twins, Paul Charles
and Mary Madolyn and they priz-
ed them for sentimental reasons.
The second reasons is that he needs
the camera for his landscape gar
dening work, for which his other
camera can not be used. Up to
press time there was no news of
the camera.
