in the movies. was coming back
among those who told her it could
not be done. The ones who said
it was useless to try to get her
child into the movies.
These latter were the Washington
critics. Ten years ago, Mrs. Garner
used to take her wonderful mothers
faith in her talented little girl to
these same people and ask them
what her next step should be. They
liked Mrs. Garner, admired her
spirit greatly, and were even con-
vinced that Peggy must have talent
to inspire so much of zeal on the
part of her mother.
But they knew the Broadway and
Hollywood systems, too, and how in
both systems ambitious mothers
were viewed as an ever-threatening
plague.
1t was to spare her learning this
the hard way that they would tell
Mrs. Garner to forget it, that it
was a routine that always ended in
heart break, and that she would
be far smarter to go home. Above
all, they insisted that it would be
q waste of time and money to go
to Hollywood where every studio
gate, they warned, was haunted by
sad. wraith-like mothers and their
offspring.
Mrs. Garner did not forget It,
She did not believe in heart rt-break.

and, instead of going home, she went
to Hollywood.
It was from there that she came
back the other afternoon to that
party in the Carlton. She did not
want it that way, but that had to
be a party she stole from Peggy
Ann. In that audience, the mother
was the heroine and Peggy was a
bright, sweet, unspoiled and sud-
denly pretty child who had proved
all the things her mother had known
when she alone had faith.
If she had consulted the Delphian
oracle in his palmiest day, Mrs.
Garner could not have been better
advised on a method to show she
had not changed That Hollywood
had not changed her.
Once the acknowledgment of her
rightness had been duly made by
her old false counsellors, she got
the floor.
What was on her mind, In that
place Of all places, was another
question!
To the frmest of her old would
be dissuaders, the one who gave her
the most oiscouraging and demon
lstrably wrong counsel, she ad-
dressed it.
What" she wanted to know,
would you think of Peggy going
into a Broadway play?"
You wouldn't ask me-ME," the
critic blurted out.
"Yes," said Mrs. Garner. "Why
not?"
When the critic was too astound-
ed to answer she continued:
"She has been offered the lead in
Alice in Wonderland The Eva
LIE Gallienne production. I am not
sure she could get out of her as
signments at Goth Century-Fox for
a long enough period to make it
worth while. And, of course, the
stage cannot afford to pay what
the movies do" :.
The critic made mental calcu-
lation that whatever Peggy could
make as Alice, it would be five times
the salary of a cabinet officer. But
he listened as Mrs. Garner went on:
1T probably would take six
months. Nothing less would justify
Miss lie Gallienne. think it would
be good for Peggy. I want her to
have the broadest experience pos
sible as an actress. 1t is a question
of whether this is the right time"
X x
Actually, it was a question, al,
though Mrs. Garner's listener could
not see how it could be.
Peggy does not know, herself,
Just how she feels about it. She
wants to 90 Broadway play. /
never really dreamed much about
that. used to think-and it seemed
the widest fancy-that I would ask
nothing more if Peggy ever were
to win an Acamedy Award and we
were to be invited to the White
House. She got the award last year,
and we've just come from the
White House.
But, there's her school. She is
doing awfully- well in school. I
would have to change that, and you
know how mothers are when their
children are in school and doing
well. Then, you know New York's
weather. No child could be healthier
than Peggy. but after you have
lived in that California climate for
several years-well, you become
skeptical of other climates"
The critic was thinking along
with Mrs. Garner, step for step. But
he still could not quite believe she
was asking for his advice. Not again
"You really want to know what !
would do?" he asked.
Eyes, I really do" Mrs. Garner
said.
I'D do whatever you want to do
he said. And I'd pay no attention
to anything any one like me might
suggest.

THANKSGIVING

 For the few bushels Of grain and vegetables which the Pilgrims grateful, farms today produce enough to feed the world at least good share of it. All of the ravaged countries of Europe look to the farms the United States for their salvation And we can be thankful that can not only provide for our own but for those abroad
 It was not much of a harvest that our Pilgrim forefathers enoyed-a little maize few vegetables and small amounts of other grains-poor promise in- deed for the wealth which to to America. The Pilgrims had worked long, hard days against many enemies-there enemy Indians in the un- known woodlands and animals which ravaged the crops. The forest thick and hard to clear for planting

Government grain purchases obviously are tht principal factor in s3 wheat, but they are not the only factor. Specuations also has contributed Nol can the effect of increased of wheat by diserS and brewers in the last frenzied month prior to thc shutdown be discounted. Moreover. the exchanges themselves are not paragons of innocence, was demonstrated by their reluctance to comply with Gov ernment requests for increased margins
 Nevertheless there is justification it seems , to us in the exchanges criticism that Government purchasing has been sporadic and hence than necessarily dsruptive influence the market More than anything else this reflects think, the lack of sufficient advance planning and the failure to settle Cn a definite goal To be sure, precise determina- ton of the amount of American grain that will be needed is difficult make since it depends in large measure on the foreign crops that will be available. Nonetheess obvious decisions too long deferred are characteristic of the Governments handling of the entire food crisis.
 While it is easy pick out the defects it is not easy to prescribe effective cure. Some natonary pressure on the market will remain long as the necessity for Government buying exists Price con- trol has been suggested If farmers were assured that grain prices would not rise further the impetus for withholding would be lost. Any ceiling price for gran of course be consistent with meat prlces which implies both price control and ratonng of meat These are matters which require Congressional de- termination Within the realm of grain purchases however the Administration could afford to pay some heed to the exchanges complaints of irreguarity. We know that the food emergency will be with us TOT some time to Why is it not possible to plan accordingly and to space Government grain buying so as to cause minimum of disturbance?

 Although Gov. Thomas E.

For as one of the leading contend CTS for the COP presidential nomination. Governor Dewey can play 8 substantial part in the momentous decisions that have to be made this winter.
 We need a frank and thorough debate of the Presidents proposals for aid to Europe. And We can be certain of getting it. when Congress convenes. But we also need a strictly bipartisan approach if we are to avoid the ruin of foreign policy by injection of party politics. That is where Governor Dewey IS making constructive contribution. His principal stress placed giving prompt and adequate aid to Europe, under genuinely bipartisan control
 In broader terms, and going beyond the Marshall plan itself Governor Dewey pleaded for farsighted policy, calculated to preserve democratic govern in the doubtful of Europe and the Orient, calculated to retain the strong friendships this country now has with host of valued allies.
 Governor Deweys address more than mere repudiation of any isolationist tendency It was a strong declaration of his faith in longrange pro- gram of close economic cooperation with the nations of the democratic bloc It also recognition that the United States. strong it is could not survive as free nation in a world succumbing to despair, chaos and left-wing dictatorship
