DOLLAR CRISIS

II Is rather ridiculous for anybody in
the United States TO associate the dollar
shortage in Great Britain with the politi-
cal and economic reforms which have
been put into effect in that country
The dollar shortage Is worldwide
phenomenon. due 10 the fact that the ma
tons OF the earth want more American
goods. Since they find Il difficult to sell
their products in the United States. there
i no way for them to get the dollar ex-
change necessary for trading except Ia
advances from the United States or from
loans
To illustrate this. the scandinavian
countries report two problems Ia con-
nection with American trade The first
b. a decline In American imports from
the Scandinavian area. This means that
there Is no flow Of American dollar credit
70 these countries. Consequently. when
they want 10 buy. they must secure dol
lars somewhere and sincc every nation
faces the same shortage. the dollars are
not available.
While the financial experts of the
United States and Great Britain have
recently conferred in connection with the
financial problem Of the English coun-
Try, which l. simply a dollar shortage.
'here - 4 simple way 20 assis, the other
countries to secure dollar exchange. This
y Tor The people of the United states to
buy goods and services from the other
nations II the world Il IS time for us g.
understand that trade b a two-way street
aud that Il l. impossible for commerce 10
row one way all he time
There b. another fact Of some import

dissipation of American resources a. this

receiving. IN return. an equivalent in
goods. We build up an immense credit
in terms Of money but. At the same time.
We create a deficit a. far as material
wealth is concerned

POVERTY AND PROSPERITY

The United states has just passed
through a period of relative prosp, rity.
New York City. the great metropolis OF
the nation. u generally supposed TO be
something of an economic beilwether of
the nation.
With these Introductory remarks. We
call attention o. the fact that one ont Of
every nine children ~ New York received
assistance last year from the City's De
partment Of Welfare A total 81 1872
500 children live in their homes. accord
ing L. The New York Times. and receive
grants from the City enabling the par
ents or other relatives 10 hold the homes
together.
The City Of New York Is certainly to
be- commended Tor providing S2s.000.0 600
out of the s6s. s0O.O00 necessary 20 care
for the children. but the fact that more
than eleven per cent Of the children in a
great American city have TO depend up
on public funds for proper living condi-
tions Is somewhat amazing.

sUNBURN CAN BE FATAL

The death Of a twenty ty-four-year-o
man from sunburn j. reported from an
other state and the tragedy should serve
to warn all persons. and especially fair

overcast days. the solar RAYS can filter

We do not know too much about the
rays Of the sun other than that they are
extremely powerful. Some patients are
exposed Ia the rays of the sun for treat
ment. especially tuberculosis victims. but
IL j. safe to assume that IL beneficial re-
suits can be secured there Is the possibili-

BIRTHDAY CAKE FOR TWINS.
FROM Mrs. M. n. ".
LapfonspifisJ
To the lady who requested ideas
for birthday cakes for twins. I'd
like to offer two suggestions.
When my twin daughters were I
year old. friend of mine baked
them individual little cakes. about
S or 9 inches In diameter. ! don't
know what type OF pan she used.
but ! think coffee cans would do.
The cakes were iced with white
icing and one pink candle stood
| In each cake.
Recently I saw in a magazine q
recipe for n cake Cor cakes expe-
cially for twins. This cake was
baked in q tube pan and cut In
half. from top TO bottom. Each
half was placed on Its side. like
an inverted half moon. and iced.
One name was put on each cake.
using those letters for decorating
which you can purchase at the
dime stores. ] think one Of the
chiffon cakes would be very good
for this type of cake.
I've searched through my mag
azines trying TO find this recipe.
but no luck. I was very disap-
pointed, but maybe one of the
RCH readers also saw the article
and can give you more infor-
nation.
also think twins are q lot of
fun, although they certainly keep
me on my toes. Mine are now Z
years old and keep me laughing
at their antics. They are very
different. one Is left-handed. but
| I wouldn't take a million for them
