CANDY Statesmen
Soldiers Start In Business
With Free Sweets To
French Sweeties
BY JAMES McGLNCY
United Press Staff Corresponder

CA1te0 FTeSS starr correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. e-U.D-One of
the really memorable beauties of
World War II used to stand on the
road outside Isigny and collec.
candy in the days when the Nor
many beachhead was little bigger
than the head of 4 pin.
She was about sixteen, fair of
face and fresh of form. She had a
warm, this-one-for-you smile. She
was Joan of Arc, the fleur-de-lis,
liberation, France herself. And no.
body ever was given SO much
candy.
Her highway was the only one
running the length of the beach
head end it always was packed with
vehicles. Truck drivers got to saw
ing their rations and watching for
her. Jeep drivers used to rob sup
ply sergeants to keep her in chew
ing gum.
It seemed that no matter when
you. passed, she was there, by the
side of the road, dressed in a
bright red skirt and white blouse,
scrambling after the cand tossed
from the passing parade and cona-
ing up with that grateful, young
girl grin. Oh, it was great to be
a liberator.
Candy Trail
All across Europe the Americans
left a trial of candy behind them,
sometimes giving it away, some
times swapping it for Cognac,
cameras or love. But eve up in
Germany in the non-fraternization
period, an old-timer would say,
remember that little French gal
who used to stand outside Isigly

That was then. Now Madamoi-
selle-From-Isigny is just a post
raj market, a coming customer.
Those G.I.'s who liberated No.
mandy were actually statesmen,
advance agents for the American
Candy companies.
Bernard D. Rubin, head Of a
company which makes a popular
one-cent candy-about to become
a two-cent candy - said his firm
plans soon to invade England,
France and Belgium for the payoff
on the sales work done by the
troops.
"The army and navy did a Won
derful sales job for u.s." Rubin said.
We sent millions of dollars worth
o. candy overseas. How much was
given away we don't know.
1--WE got letters from all over
telling what the candy bars did.
One G.1. said he got a 5000 camera
in Germany for two penny candy
rolls. Everybody knows a soldier
could get almost anything he want
ed in Europe in exchange for
candy"
Candy is like music; it's uni

have arrived in the United States.
Mr.. Ben Gurion has been a fire.
quent visitor in this country in
recent years, and his coming is
always welcome, and most par
ticularly at this time when his
presence may help to provide a
better understanding b e t w e n
Americans and World Zionism.
This is DR. Sneh's first visit to the
United States. Attlee's infamous
White Paper has named Ben
Gurion and Sneh among the lead
ers of Zionism most distasteful
to the British occupants of Pal
estine. For that reason alone they
are doubly welcome in our midst.

NEW REALTY FIRM

Bernard Roth, known to his
many friends as Bernie" has
opened his own realty office, after
more than six years in this field
in Tucson. During that time he
has become well-known in the
community.
His speciality is houses in the
northeast section. He explains
this preference as the area In
which there are better property
and homes, consequently resale
values are better and investments
more solid. Certainly this part
of town has grown tremendously
and has become a popular and
convenient area to live.
However his firm is not limit
ing activity to homes in the north
east. They have listings OF in
come property representing stable
investments. Business opportun1-
ties include a restaurant, gift
shop, grocery and meat markets.
Mr.. Roth observed that real es-
tate activity each year relaxes
from about SEPT. Is until the real
cold weather arrives in the east.
Then there is a furry of activity
again. He considers this an eX-
cellent time for buying because 1t
puts the buyer in a stronger posi-
ton. He regards it his respon-
sibilty to give buyers good values.
'"There is only one way to do bus
iness-the right way" might we'll
serve as his credo.
Associated with him is Mr.. Mort
Greene. Mr.. Green was previous
ly a resident of Tucson and re-
turned recently. He has prac-
ticed law some 16 years. Another
staff associate is Ben LaZaroW,
formerly an instructor at Davis
Monthan. Lazarow has studied
law. Both are familiar with real
estate and business values. Mrs.
Roth, the third staff associate,
has been in the midst of real es-
tate activity for several years.
Mr.. Roth came from Perth Am
boy, N. J. in 1899 and was con-
nected with a well-established
real estate firm from 1910 until
recently. He is active in the COM
munity, and member of several
organizations.

GIRL SCOUT NEWS NOTES

The Girl Scouts of Troop II had their regular meeting Thursday Oct. "A at the American Legion Dugout. We discussed plans for the Juliet Low and Halloween party we are going to have next meeting. The Cooking Pleas and the Busy Bees will bring the games, and La Cucurachas and Butterflies will bring refreshments. We are going, to wear costumes.
 Mrs. Boochever showed us the Friendship Box. It is a cigar box covered with pretty paper. In it are sewing supplies, school supplies, toys and games, stocking cap and other things. Everyone was eager to make these, so we decided that each patrol would make one and send it to a child in a foreign country.
 Each patrol gave the skit it had prepared for the Dancer badge re- quirement. After this the meeting adjourned.

 Questions Answered
 In response to other questions, Stalin declared:
 1.-The government of the US- SIR is indifferent" to the presence of American warships in the Med iterranean.
 2.-He does not feel the veto pow CT has been used to excess either in the LIN Security Council or in the Foreign Ministers Council.
 3.-Russia regards the western borders of Poland as permanent.
 4-Russia feels that "Yugoslavia has grounds to be dissatisfied" with the peace treaty drafted for Italy at the Paris Conference.
 5.-The USSR regards "as un- necessary the presence of British troops in Greece.
 6.-He believes that mot only the economic, but also the political, unity of Germany is to be desired.'
 No War Danger
 The response to MT Baillie's questions constituted the second such interview Stalin had granted in period of slightly more than a month. On Sept. 24, in answer to questions submitted by Alexander Werth of the Sunday Times of London, he said he could see no danger of a new war
 In today's answers, he said he felt ''the instigators of a new war, in the first place Churchill and others of like mind in Britain and the USA," constituted the worst threat to world peace" now
 His declaration that Russian troops in eastern Europe numbered 50 divisions constituted an answer to Churchill's suggestion, in the form of question before the House of Commons last week, that the Soviet Union had 200 divisions there, on iull war strength.
