by some athletic Bronx dwellers about making
a skating rink in the Senate of the Doge's
Palace, and some energetic grumbling against
the Venetian municipality for not keeping the
crumbling palaces of the Grand Canal freshly
painted. But there was an eager interest
and warm response for everything which
was poetry, art and music.
Those boys came from all parts of America
Even though the cornfelds of Iowa bear little
resemblance to the dreamy waters of the
Venetian Lagoon, or the Brooklyn Bridge to
the Domes of St. Marks, l am sure the Italian
atmosphere could not have changed them
fundamentally.
Though American men seldom bow to kiss
the hands of their wives, I feel sure from my
acquaintance with them that they are not, as
is sometimes alleged, devoted solely to the
task of making money. am sure that Ameri-
can women can draw from their men any
amount of romantic sentiment, even without
dragging them in front of the paintings of
Tintoretto or the sunsets on the Grand Canal.
No, you can't blame American men for
the emotional troubles of American women.

Being Unconditional seems to be the
goal Of every woman in this country.
This is one Of the principal covses
OF frvstrufion in American women"
because of the way they think and live. Books
and magazines have frequently aired this
question with commendable seriousness, but
apparently without ever having reached
solution.
The principal charge is that American
women suffer from an unsatisfactory emo
tional life - the implication being that there
is something lacking in American men, I'm
convinced that isn't true
These cI Rozneos
before coming to this country, met thou
sands of American men during the war in
Italy. while was working for the Red Cross
In Milan and Venice. Among my other tasks
was that of translating love letters of CTS to
Italian girls. After what had heard about
International" American men, those letters
were revelation. All the emotions that
sensitive man would feel in a new country
enlivened those letters: descriptions of Italian
sunsets. impressions of art. witty descriptions
OF military life filled those letters with food
of warmth and humanity.
The reactions of those boys to the cultural
program" with which the Red Cross was
striving to entertain them was also interest
ing. It's true there were occasional comments

And it was only in America, where l met
that began to find the clue.
The first thing which struck me was their
extreme activity, pushed almost beyond the
limits of human endurance. American women
always seem to be on the 60. They seem
always to be pursuing some ideal of efficiency
which they strive to attain through technical
methods, through study and application.
Business and professional women are but the
advance guard of this huge army of American
women whose god is efficiency, and who think
they can obtain practically everything through
technical training. Blind faith in technique,
in practical knowledge of almost every
thing, this is what deprives American life of
color and warmth.
How Do They Do Il?
EvEN outside that terrific and charming CITY
OF New York, women are everywhere caught
up in maelstrom of standardized, mechan-
lied activity which compels them to run if
they do not want to be left behind The amaz-
ing thing is how American women, trapped in
such swift stream, find so much energy to
retain their charm and femininity.
understand now why magazines and NOV
les are filled with romance to the point of
sickness. They only try to provide people
with that healthy spice which is being driven
out of real American life
In spite of all the mechanical devices
which make an American home easy to
run, it's mistress is still living under big
strain. Even if she is not working in fac
tory or in an Office, she never has time to re-
lax. She is always stimulated, hurried urged
to do something. She is haunted by radio
programs for housewives. harassed by the
telephone and the doorbell.
1t is touching to see that even under such
pressure an American woman still has time to
think about herself. even if only externally.
American women are very pretty, and they
are surely the best-groomed in the world.
No harm in this 1t is wonderful The harm
is done when woman believes that this ex-
ternal appearance alone can influence her life,

German Pilot Says He Flew Hitler Out Of Germany

MUNICH, Germany, P(-U. s. army officials Saturday checked a former German pilots claim that Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun es- capped from Germany near the end of the war.
 One American official described as fantastic" the signed state ment by Arthur Friedrich Rene von Angelotte- -MacKensen that the couple flew to Denmark in a Jun kers 52 transport shortly before Germany surrendered in May, 1945.
 In December, 1947, Capt. Peter Baumgart, a former LuftWaffe pi- lot, told a district court in Warsaw that he flew Hitler and a women he believed to be Eva Braun from besieged Berlin to Denmark on April 28, 1945O
 U. s. officers began questioning MacKensen Friday when they re- ceived a tip from a former girl friend, who said she did not be- lieve him.
 The 26-year-old MacKensen, who claims to have been a body guard of Hitler, said the last he saw of the Fuehrer and Eva Braun was when they took off by plane for Spain. He said he followed but crashed in southern France.
 MacKensen said that he was in the Reichchancellory afraid shel- ter in Berlin when Hitler told as sociates:

Krug Just Wants "Fast Development Of Alaska''

WASHINGTON, (P)-Secretary of the interior Krug and some members of the Senate interior committee agreed late Friday on common purpose-the quick de- velopment of Alaska.
 Krug said that has been his ob- jective since he became head of the interior department.
 Senator Butler R.-NebD, who has been critical of Krug's Alas kan policy, promptly agreed that rapid growth of the Territory is also the Committees aim.
 Senators Watkins R.-Utah and Malone R.-NevD shared Buffers opinion.
 Krug testified against bills to cancel Alaskan Indian reserva- tions established by former secre- tary Ickes, forbid establishment ot others and to transfer Alaskan du- ties of the Indian bureau to the Territory.
 He also denied charges in a let ter from Butler that his depart ment or it's employees are blocking the development of Alaskan tim Der resources.

Partition Up To U. s. And Russia

LAKE SUCCESS, P-Solvine the Palestine problem seemed Sat urday to have been left mainly tC the United States and Russia.
 After two weeks of cautious de- bate, the United Nations security council late Friday called on the five major powers to find a meth cd of carrying out partition of the Holy Land into Jewish and Arab nations, recommended by the as- sembly Nov. 29.
 Britain announced off the floor that she would not take part in the consultations. China has ab- stained from much of the U. N. voting on Palestine. France has been reluctant to take a stand.
 This prompted the general view that the future of the Holy Land rested on the doorsteps of Wash ington and Moscow.
 The first big-power meeting was set for Monday morning in the New York offices of Soviet dele gate Andrei A. Gromyko. A TO- day limit was put on the sessions.

.CIO Gusts Bridges; .FBI Seeks His
 Deportation

SAN FRANCISCO, (P) - The CIO busted Harry Bridges as northern California regional di- rector Friday.
 And, newspapers reported, a third attempt is to be made to de- port the Australian-born long shore labor leader
 In Washington, however, aides of Attorney General Tom Clark said "the Bridges case has not been reopened."
 The CIO fired Bridges as north ern California regional director yesterday because he went con- trary to national CIO policy by supporting Wallace's third party and opposing the Marshall plan of aid to Europe.
 He was warned two weeks ago to get in line with policy of the CIO executive committee on the issues or face custer from the ap- pointive directors position. He was silent on his custer. Bridges retains two elective posts. He is president of the CIO international longshoremen's and Warehousemen'S union and a vice president of the national executive CIO council.
 Tim Flynn, former member of the board of the CIO industrial union of marine and ShipbuildiRg workers and member of the CIO organizing staff, was named Bridges successor as director for northern California.
 The climax of the CIO family fight came as newspapers report ed a justice department investi- gator had been sent here "to seek evidence on which to base a third formal effort" to deport Bridges, native of Australia. He now is a U. s. citizen.
 Bridges took note of the reports in a statement expressing no sur prise at ''my contemplated arrest and hotly attacking the Truman administration for political in- timidation."
 He said 10 persons had been ar rested recently and held without bail for deportation.
