each side rail. The box spring fits
into these angle irons and extends
to about one inch above the heavy
side rails. The mattress rests on
the spring but extends over the
side rail in order to produce nice
square corners-or side edges to the
bed. This in no way affects the
comfort of the bed. Since most an
tique beds are either quite a bit
smaller than modern beds-or quite
larger-you may find that you will
have to have your spring and mat
tress made to order, as I have
found necessary with my beds. This
is most satisfactory and the small
additional cost is worth the better
appearance. No doubt you use a
dust ruff1e' on your beds. This will
hide the countersunk box spring.

Dorothy Dix Says

It is gratifying to learn that many
of our colleges are including the
study of marriage in their cur
riculums Surely this fills a long
felt want. for the one thing that
boys and girls need to know more
than anything else is how to pick
out their mates and live with them
in reasonable peace ever afterward
Heretofore this vital branch of
education has been entirely ne
elected. Nobody has thought it
worth while to teach youngsters
even the ABC.s of matrimony. yet
it is more important for every hus-
band to be able to figure out what
his wife is going to do next than
it is for him to be shark in higher
mathematics. and far. far more
profitable to wife to speak her
husbands language than it is Greek
or Latin.
Surely many a domestic tragedy
will be avoided when adolescent
girls and boys are taught to take
their temperatures and diagnose
their symptoms and realize that the
palpitations from which they are

CAMPAIGN EXPENSES

The Pauey affair-especially the suggestion that the former treasurer of the Democratic National Com mitee might have tempted to exchange favors for campaign contributions-has led Representative Mon roney of Oklahoma to propose that the Federal gov ernment foot the bill for Presidential electioneerng
 There is nothing particularly new in this sugges- tion There long has been concern over the high cost of being elected to office William Howard Taft and William Jennings Bryan had ideas rather similar to Mike Monroneys. The late James Weber Linn used to talk about it lot. Together with other University of Chicago faculty members he needed the orepeated admontion that good ought to get into politics and immediately into the problem of paying cam paign expenses-radio time, advertising hall rent, printing and
 In large urban districts, legitimate expenses some times may exceed the salary of the successful candi date This naturally leads to the pooling of campaign expenses through a party organization. So much money has been raised in this way that it has become necessary-through the Hatch Act-to place limit on the expenditures of single national party. How ever many ways have been found to crcumvent this rule.
 MT. Monroney comes forward with new version of an old solution He would have the government pay at least the expenses of Presidential campaigns Congress would appropriate $700OO00 for each major party and approximately smaller amounts for the

 MT. Monroney does not intend to introduce leg islation just However, when he gets around to it, he can count support at least from Senator Hatch of New Mexico. It was Hatch who wanted the Democratic convention of 194o to write similar pro posal into its platform Nothing of his sugges- tion However one be of revival of interest in it whenever attention is recalled to the possibilities of abuse.
 The Constitution specifces in detail how the Fed eral government shall be ofcered, but is completely silent about the practical details of elections. The result has been the development of a system which often finds patronage effective than public spirit It is time to give some thought to better plan.

The Kuriles
Washington Starr


 The Kuriles now disclosed to have been promised to the Soviet Unon have been wanted by Russia for long time. Thirty-two in number, they are chain of islands stretching from Yezo to Kamchatka Their lines nearly fifteen hundred miles, and their total surface has been estimated as sixty one hundred and fifty-nne square miles. A vast net of seaweed entanges the whole archipelago The name by which the entire group commonly is known derives from the Russian word "kurit," meaning ito smoke" and limiting at the active volcanic character of the isles in the past as well as in the present.
 All of the Kures are mountainous, and the pres ence of hot sulphur springs at their bases suggests considerable turmoil within the peaks One, approxi- mately seventy-four hundred feet high, is "a cone within cone the inner and higher of the two being so the natives saysurrounded by lake" Extensive forests cover most of the islands, sheterng bears, foxes and other animals formerly hunted for their belts by Japanese fishermen who work" the sur rounding waters for salmon cod and crab The climate is hostile through quarters of average year Snow falls from September until May, and heavy fogs hang weeks at time the narrow shores The population according to the most recent census is less than five thousand though it is possible that there has been increase of immigration due to the
 Japans claims to the three southern isles-Kuna- shiri Etorofu and Shkotandates back for centuries But the Russians since their conquest of Kam- chatka in 17O7 have been pressing toward the occu- patton of the whole group concidentaly with their penetration of the entirety of Sakhalin Under the Soviet system under the Czars, they have sought the domination and control of that portion of the Pacific Ocean denominated the Sea of Okhotsk. glance at the map will suffice to show the relation of the Kuriles to the Siberian mainland. They are roughly comparable to Long Island, Block Island Marthas Vineyard and Nantucket off the coast of New York and New England or the marginal islands of North Carolina between Cape Lookout and Cape Hatteras east of Pamico Bay.

SENATE AND CABINET CONFIRMATION

American history shows that Presidents of the United States have had more difficulty with Sem ate confirmation of the Secretary of the Treasury than any other cabinet post. In all, ten different votes have been cast by the Sen- ate defeating confirmation of cab inet members.
 The first of these was Andrew Jackson's fight to appoint Roger B. Fancy as Secretary of the Trea- sury. Jackson was defeated.
 Second Senate battle was Presi- cent Tyler's attempt to appoint Caleb Cushing as Secretary of the Treasury. Tyler forced three diff ferent votes in the Senate to con- firm Cushing, but lost each time by large majorities. Tyler also had trouble appointing David Henshav as Secretary of the Navy, James M Porter as Secretary of War, and James s. Green as Secretary oi the Treasury. Tn each case, tht Senate turned down confirmation by conclusive majority.
 The next Senate fight over cab. inet confirmation occurred in thu administration Of Andrew John. son, when he attempted to appoini Henry Stanbery as Attorney Gen eral. but was defeated.

next morning, however, Lew's boss in the White House did exactly the opposite by announcing plans to use the Navy to break the strike. This, of course, put the ship own- CTS in a favored position. They were no longer under any compul- sion to settle before the strike deadline. When patient Laundry Lew heard this, even he hit the ceiling.
 Then the Navy announced, with White House backing, that it was calling on its reserves and volun- teers to break the strike. Again this played into the ship owners hands; again the Secretary of La- DOT was upset.
 Finally, he sent Assistant Secre- tary of Labor John Gibson to the White House with a personal ap- peal to the President to refrain from prejudicing the negotiations Truman agreed, issued a statement saying the Government hoped for settlement, did not want to be put in the position of breaking the strike.
 | Meanwhile, Laundry Lew has the sympathy of Secretary of State Byrnes and retiring Secretary of the Treasury Vinson. Vinson even told the President he doesn't want to be called in to help settle any more strikes at the last minute, after John Snyder had bungled things up. Secretary Byrnes was so fed up with White House handling of the railroad strike that he told railroad union chiefs he had washed his hands of the whole mess"

HEART AND HOME
 Love affairs will progress smooth ly under this configuration. Mar riages contracted today will wealth CT the storms of adjustments which must be made by every couple in the marriage relation.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Ancient prejudices against wo- men in business will lose ground during the next few years. A large number of women who demonstrat- ed their competence as organizers and managers during the war will find their way into responsible exc cutive positions.
 NATIONAL ISSUES A further rise in the cost of liv- ing is inevitable and almost cer- tain to lead to new demands for wage increases, which in turn may bring another series of strikes, ac- cording to present. signs. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS The world has not heard the last of Russia's expansion ambitions. Only united and stubborn opposi. tion by the United States and Brit ain will hold her in check.

sNYDER,s SCORE CARD

Likewise with John Snyder. Il makes no difference that Snyder got the White House into more economic trouble than any other administration leader It makes nc difference that Snyder advised abolishing the War Labor Board thereby throwing away the Gov ernment's chief key for stopping strikes.
 It makes no difference that Sny- Ger balled up the railroad strike, hereby throwing away all chance of a Democratic Congressional vic- tory next November, and even Tru- mans chance of reelection in AS.
 It makes no difference that Sny- der released housing controls, then had to reinstate them; released woolen controls and caused vet erans clothing shortage; probably prolonged the coal strike by not letting John L. Lewis talk to U. S. Steel about settlement in captive mines. and abolished the job of Economic Stabilizer Will Davis then had to re-create it.
 These may be costly errors to the country, may set the nation back for months. But they amount to nothing alongside the friend ship of two old friends from Mis- souri.
 Whether friendship is the only factor, nobody knows. Perhaps if the Senate probes deeply enough it can find out. At any rate, there is nothing Harry Truman would not do for John Snyder-at the expense of the tender fiscal af- fairs of the United States.

 The first vote on Warren was the famous occasion when Vice-Presi- dent Charley Dawes failed to be present. His excuse was that he was mapping and his alarm clock failed to go off However, Coolidge who never got along with Dawes always suspected that his Vice.
