 Joe is just another young man - until it is obvious to Mama that he is going to lead her daughter to the altar.
 Then Mama starts her publicity campaign. Joe is smart, up-and-com- ing, has a fine education, simply AZORES daughter, comes from a fine old family, etc., etc.
 No paid presS-agent could do better job than Mama of making her daughters future husband appear an outstanding catch" Tn her zeal to sell Joe to her friends, Mama lets herself go in giving Joe the old build up.
 It's easier, of course, if Joe lives in another town. In such a case Mama isn't hampered too much by her friends personal estimates of Joe.
 But even if he is a local boy, she can do a good job of pointing up his good qualities and making him seem like the seasons prize altar prospect. JUST HUMAN NATURE
 So the British are probably right in suspecting royal romance if praises are being sung in Britain for an eligible young man.
 Human nature is the same the world over. And every proud mother of a daughter wants everyone to think her girl is making fine mar riage. r

Fish Hits British Loan
As Financing Social
Revolution in England
by tho Asseeiotsd Press

The $3,750, 900 900 British loan was
opposed by Hamilton Fish late yes
terday as financing for ''Laski's So
cial revolution in England"
The former Republican Represent
ative from New York laid his views
before the House Banking Commit
tee as opponents of the loan began
presenting their case.
1--WE rush in to become an inter-
national Santa Claus and distribute
billions of our peoples money, with
out their consent, to Britain and
Soviet Russia, to promote Socialism
and Communism, and to increase
cut-throat competition for our own
export trade In South America, Eu-
rope and the Far East" Mr.. Fish
said. ss-
Are we to finance Laski's social
revolution in England?" he asked
Mr.. Fish described the proposed
loan as "a fraud on the American
people" declaring it never would be
repaid and amounted to taxation
without representation" He said
80 to 80 per cent of the people are
against the loan.
Representative Wolcott of Michi-
gan, senior Banking Committee Re-
publican, declared the argument
about repayment is superficial. u
The real issue, he said, is the effect
OF the loan on the spread OF Com
munism.
This issue is perhaps the great
est to come before this country in
a generation" he told the commit
tee.
While explaining that he himself
had not made up his mind whether
he will support or oppose the Brit
ish transactions, Mr.. Wolcott asked
Mr.. Fish:
IF you thought this loan would
minimize Communism in Europe
would you think this is a good in.
vestment?"
Yes" Mr.. Fish replied, but II
would have to be 20 times a,
much" meaning 20 times 3d..
750, ,0OO, 900.
Mr.. Fish declared repeatedly that
the United States should demand
possession of British islands in the
Atlantic as consideration for the
loan. thereby increasing Americas
ability to defend itself.
