WHEN JOHN MILTON wrote about
"Paradise Lost" in the long, long ago, he be
walled the conditions, with ruin upon ruin,
rOut on rout, confusion worse confOunded.
Reporters in Washington are describing sim
liar ruin and confusion in 1916 Having won
two World Wars through huge sacrifice of
American life with batte-cry for "pelma->
nent pcacc'-What are we going to do about
it?
The heads of the American Government
from President, Congress- and down to the
page boys at the Capital disagree about prac-
tically every domestic problem and that's
Il pretty tough disturbance.
The Fall elections may help clarity some
Of these questions. One question is food for
I'LL Americans, first. So-calIed capital and
labor ought to have sense enough to settle
their own affairs by taking up aIl the slack
unemployment. That will only be possible if
the masses and classes play falr and square
with each other as they did in the days before
the great sit-dOWn strikes i'm Michigan that
were, unfortunately, endorsed and supported
bv the President Of the United States aud the
Governor of Michigan.
IT IS PERFECTLY NATURAL that oul
people want to 90 the limit in feeding Stav-
ing people who have been victims Of the
great World War But when it comes It
bring the process down to slices Of bread
pieces Of meat, mnimumS Of sugar and syn
thetic foods and fruit juices, plus inferior
paper towels, etc, etc, etc. that's Wher
reason breaks company with orders from
brass hats" and administrators holding pc
hticd positions.
TIE TWENTY SECOND REPORT from
the White House to Congress on Lend. east
operations shows that the British Fnpir
received $50, 733,3O4, 900 lend lease ald from
the United States between March IL, l9l
and December 81, l9l5--;tnd they had SID,
639 900 from VI Day through February %

These facts had bearing on the projecte
British loan that stirred up such 4 rlCtlOn il
Congress and the newspapers during tn
present year. The whole story seems to IN
oicate that Britain is IN expensive poor rt

An FBI laboratory sitting of ashes
from a furnace yielded evidence
against a 27-year-old colored man
heid for the grand jury yesterday on
charge of theft of Government
property in the snatching of a
yogng FBI clerks purse containing
her Identification badge.
Among the ashes, the FBI re-
ported, were the charred remnants
OF a badge and compact believed
to be those of Miss DINA Cunning
ham, 1736 Eighteenth street NV.
whose purse was taken by two COL
ored men in the 1900 block Of r

Police, who said they had re-
ceived a report of another purse
snstching In the same vicinity a few
minutes after Miss CUNNINGHAM
called them, chased two men into the
Whitelaw Hotel, Thirteenth and F
streets NV. The FBI said the de-
fendant, Henry June, of the 20OC
block of Fifteenth street NV, threw
a purse to the hotel janitor. who
promptly put it into the furnace

Plans Made 10 PubIicize
Dangers Of Initiation

A publicity campaign to focus
public attention on the dangers of
imitation will be staged here the
week of March II, if tentative plans
agreed on at a meeting of the Dis
trict Authorization Committee yes
terday are found practicable.
The group, representing trade
and consumer interests, agreed to
set up promotion committee after
proposed resolution indorsing ex-
tension of price controls was with
drawn.
Worth Rowley, representing the
American Veterans Committee, de-
cided not to press for a vote on his
resolution when Cornelius Nc
earthly, information officer of the
District ONCE of Price Admins
tration, pointed out he had been
instrumental in forming the COM
mittee to coordinate support for
an information campaign and had
not expected the members to bind
their organizations on policy mat
tiers.
Ralph L. Goldsmith, vice president
and general manager of Lansburgh
g. Bro, emphasized he could not
speak for the department stores in
general, although he had headed a
subcommittee of merchants who
considered possible means of sup
porting the anti-inf1ation drive.
Mr.. Goldsmith said merchants were
agreed on the undesirability of in
flation but said they were at a loss
as to what they could tell the public
that would be of value through adj
vertising or displays.
The meeting was held in offices of
the Washington Board of Trade.

D. {. Telephone Pay
Dispute 10 Await
Memphis Vote Sunday

There probably will be no attempt
to resolve wage contract differences
between the telephone company and
Washington operators before the
National Federation of Telephone
Workers meets in Memphis next
Sunday to vote on a national strike.
The union spokesman who made
this prediction said 1t did not neces-
sarily mean the Washington Tele-
phone Traffic Union, whose members
last week sanctioned a strike on any
of four issues, would walk out next
week.
Everything will be in the hands
of the NFTW delegates representing
125,0oo members who filed strike
notices last month";" the spokesman
said.
Although some circles were in
-clined to believe the NFTW would
find reason to instruct local presi-
dents to continue their bargaining
efforts, others pointed to meeting
of union officials at the Annapolis
Hotel as indicative of strike plan
ming.
The four leaders in conference
represented units which have been
unable to sign agreements with tele-
phone companies. All will attend
the Memphis conference. They are

Sir Ernest Macmillan Stresses
World Goodwill Through Music
Conudion to Conduct
National Symphony
In Own Composition

Sir Ernest Macmillan, who ad-
mits he has been talking himself
blue in the face" about the value
Of international artistic exchange
as goodwill device, tries to fol-
low his thesis in practice.
For example, he is in Washington
to appear as guest conductor with
the National Symphony Orchestra
tomorrow night in Constitution Hall.
The titled conductor of the Toronto
Symphony is returning a recent
visit by DR.. Hans Kinder to Sir
Ernest's Canadian podium.
Naturally, he has brought some of
the music of his own country for

evident his conviction that all coun-

their culture to the people of other
lands, as a means of fostering I'M

The Russians lead the world
in this, he said.
Financial assistance should be the
governments main function in the
matter, with "beaurocracy" kept to
a minimum, Sir Ernest commented
He pointed out there have been
extremes of government aid, such
as a rule requiring all visiting artists
to include a native composition in
every program which he said Pia-
mist Artur Rubinstein encountered
in "a South American country"
Sir Ernest emphasized that what
the United States did in the field
was out of his province, but said he
intended to continue his long fight
for a Canadian Government pro-
