4. 1t provides the American
workman with the finest tools on
earth. Keen competition under
efficient management has inspired
the development of machine tools
which cannot be imagined by the
workers in most countries. This
advantage in tools permits an
American coal miner to mine
eight tons of coal per day, while
in the government-operated mines
Of England the miners produce
only a fourth as much. The in
vestment in tools in an American
automobile industry is more than
$4,000 per employee. That much
money has to be invested to
make a single job. In chemical
plants it reaches $4,000 per en-
ployee; in the railroad industry
$4,000.

Emily Post Advises

A really hard situation to meet
lis described as follows: MY hus-
band and 7 often go out to dinner
or to q supper club with several
other couples. Neither my hus-
band nor I eat very much, and
we don't drink at all, but most of
our friends like to do both. They
usually have several cocktails
apiece and order the most expen-
sive food on the menu. When the
bill comes. it is always suggested
that it be divided equally. I resent
this very much as we are in
modest circumstances and I can't
see paying for something we didn't
have. Is there any way my hus-
band can tactfully suggest that he
pay only for what we order with
out appearing cheap?
A very intimate friend who
realizes the unfairness of your
situation could suggest that this
be done for you. but neither you
nor your husband could possibly
make such q suggestion your
selves.

sury and Mrs. Andrew OVERLY
in the box with Rosa Ponselle,
with whom they spent the week

And you would have danced
afterwards to a mad, mad Or

You would have dined in

man who were entertaining the
colorful, attractive Governor Of
Puerto Rico, Luis Munoz Marin,
and his pretty wife, and you
would have heard some interest
ing stories from the host, an
excellent narrator. He recently
celebrated his 10 years in In
terror but his domain gets more
and more exterior; the Mar
shall Islands and the Marianas
have been added to his baili-
wick. You would have been
enlightened on the .tidelands
oils question; the Government
has not and is not claiming oil
from the tidelands, but from
the Continental shelf in the
open sea. Tidelands means only
that narrow strip Of beach ex-
tending between low tide and
high tide. And you would have
listened with interest to Oscar
Chapman's reason for hating
the poll tax. He remembers
vividly during his boyhood in
Virginia when he went with
his mother the first time she
tried to register to vote. The
only way she could do so was
to pay up back poll taxes
amounting to $28. and for a
poor family in those days $28
represented a years supply Of
q staple food. She couldn't afford
to vote. 80.
Everywhere Governor Munoz
Marin goes a special guard
goes with him. He's the same
guard always assigned to him
but this time he's even more
vigilant because of the attack
on the Governors life in San
Juan last year Immediately
after the attempt here on Presi-

Rican. The Governors guard
sleeps sitting up in a chair in
Munoz's apartment and won't
