Or. Maria Pia Dial Canton, q

Then a teen-age group was

acted as call girls by night. Teen

recruitment of volunteers "of

While this is only four more than
last year, it is IA pounds more

momentarily, as a result.
This latest government action
follows Washington's recent de-
cision to increase the down pay
ment requirement and mortgage
terms on Government insured
housing loans. 1t also follows
frightened restrictions on the cred
it-purchase of stocks. All these
measures make it clear that the
Government is concerned lest an
other inflationary spiral begin in
this country. Such a spiral al
ways results in a new series of
pay raises and other economic
adjustments.
The measures recently taken by
the Government are significant
and their success or failure to
achieve their purpose will be of
utmost Importance to the people
of the United States. What the
Administration is attempting to
do for the people of this country
is to maintain relative stability in
the cos%t-of-living field, while reg

from getting out of hand in eth

The Administration successful

16 AGO

Sixteen years ago, this month
the world was poised on the edge
of what appeared to be inevitable
second World War, and was. AS
August had ushered in World War
l in 1914, in August 1899, the
world focused its attention on
Nazi Germany.
At that time Hitler had been
In power only six years, but he
had already built up a formidable
military machine and was threat
ening to exact brutal revenge on
Poland if his demands against that
country were not met. Through
out the latter half of August.
world peace hung by a thread and
Hitler threatened to take action
unless his demands were met i'm
mediately.
In the waning days of August,
the British proposed a plan for
peaceful settlement of the Polish
Corridor dispute, and Hitler
for a moment - hesitated. He
postponed his invasion of Poland
for several days, but the postpone
ment was only temporary.
When Hitler became convinced
that England and France would
not bow to his demands against
Poland but would only agree to
help moderate the dispute and IA
cilitate negotiations and some con-
cessions, Hitler made up his mind
to order the advance which touch
ed off World War II.
That was sixteen years ago this
month. Actually, Hitler's troops
crossed the border into Poland
early on the morning of Septem-
Der l, though the plans and or
derS were issued in August. After
the invasion began, only twenty
four days were required to crush
the proud Polish Army, whose SOL
diers resisted fiercely but were
overwhelmed, surrounded and
hopelessly outclaSSed.
The month of August, then,
brings back memories of awesome
years. World War II also ended
in August - on August IA -
when Japan surrendered. Hitler
had been disposed of in May and
the Nazis surrendered in May,
1945.
