S. first line of Pacific defense just that much farther away from the U. S. mainland, into an arc far outside of the defense line. The Navy conceives that its duty is to do its fighting as far from the mainland as possible. It also knows tIiat from Guam it could cooperate handily with the seapower of the like- liest U. S ally, Great Britain, strong ly based on Singapore and Hong Kong. Congressmen opposed authorizing improvement of Guam's facilities for seaplanes and small naval craft for two reasons: "Improvement'of Guam would, in the present state of U. S.Japan relations, be tantamount to fortification of Guam a provocative gesture, especially since Guam is only 1,356 miles from Yokohama; extension of the Navy's 'mainland defense' line would be an extension of U. S. . foreign policy. The question of approving the proposed Guam base was finally put in an amendment. Republican Leader Joe Martin shrewdly held his forces in hand until he could combine them Democrats. The with 64 vote was 205 to 168 against Guam, and then 368 to 4 in favor of the other eleven bases. Republican Adman Bruce Barton, unable to control himself, said: "Guam, Guam with the Wind." Not gone forever was Guam. It would come up again in the Senate and perhaps in other defense bills. From the Navy's point of view a major catastrophe was that in the excitement, authorization of its submarine requirements in the Pacific had been forgotten.

The French-Britisrecognition of General Franco's Spain left only a handful of nations still recognizing the Loyalists, chief among which were Soviet Russia, China, Mexico, Cuba, the U. S. With the probable exception of the Soviet Union, they too were expected to change over promptly. Surrender of the remaining one- fourth of Spain now in Loyalist hands was expected to come within a few days. After two years, seven months and one week of a bloody warfare which has caused untold destruction and led to the death of an estimated 1,000,000 persons the war was all but h Rose Peterson, and Floyd Garfield ters, Dona and LaVon, visited in Man- were Salt Lake visitors Thursday. ua Sunday afternoon with Mr. and Mr. and Mrs. O.

Whatever peace might mean to war weary Spain, to the outside world the approaching end of the Spanish War was merely the signal for the begin ning of a diplomatic tug of war be tween the European democracies and dictatorships. Germany and Italy be lieve they will exert more influence because they helped Rebel Spain win the war with men and munitions. France and Britain hope to get the new Spain into their camp by lending her money. To flattering requests from France and Britain that Generalissimo Fran co declare a general amnesty; and to French and British hopes that Spain would remain "independent," Francisco Franco snapped: "The admiration for me expressed by neighboring democracies todays leaves me as indifferent as the abuse they heaped on me yesterday. PRIZE NIGHT SAN FRANCISCO As part of its $1,000,000 advertising campaign to convince the public that "Motion Pic- tures Are Your Best Entertainment," theatres all over the U. S. and Canada last year distributed to their patrons booklets containing questions bassed on 94 forthcoming pictures and theoretically answerable only by people who saw the pictures. First prize in this colossal quiz, which ended last December 31, was $50,000 Other prizes totaled $200,000 more. The quiz was a comparative flop. the Hoping for 5,000,000 answers, committee received less than half that manmany. But last week theatre distributed over the country all agers the industry's prizes. In San Francisco's Fox Theatre the $50,000 firet C. prize went to Mrs. Elizabeth who, like many other contestants, had answered all the quiz questions correctly.

ONE YEAR Mrs. Clair Huggins of Bear Texas' Agricultural and Mechanical College started trying to develop a cotton plant whose bolls would contain plenty of seeds but little or no fibre. Last week they announced that, by patient crossbreeding of natural "mutants" of freaks, they had One difficulty remains. When the seedfilled boils open, the seeds, having no lint to hold them fall out and are lost. Texas A. and M.'s next step therefore, is to keep the bolls from opening by further crossbreeding. Since types of cotton al ready exist, the scientists believe they can soon turn the trick. Such a plant should be in great demand among smart cotton planters because: Instead of having to be ginned, it could be cheaply threshed and harvested like any small grain; there would be no cotton fibre to swell the glut already on hand.
