He is English-bor- n Stratford-on-Avo- n an A- American citizen, who flew American naval planes in World -l War I. I was having dinner with him at the Arrowhead Springs hotel, of which he is manager, in the foot- hills of the San Bernardino mountains in southern California. It is a pretentious place, with bridle paths and saddle horses, golf courses and dinner coats, lavishly furnished lounges and spreading balconies. If located In Europe, such a place would be a rendezvous of wealth and the nobility. In America it is a rendezvous of democracy. I asked Bud to tell me who gome of his guests In the dining There was an Iowa room were. farmer and his wife; a merchant and his wife from a small Nebraska village; a United States army colonel; the head of one of the great packing concerns of Chicago with his wife and her friend; a country doctor from Pennsylvania; a New York society leader and her daughter; a private from a nearby army camp and his mother, and so on. The men were all gentlemen, the women all ladies not by class but by instinct. They were all eating In the same dining room, all selecting their choice of food from the same menu, all paying the same price. There was no thought of class distinctions. They were all Americans. Such a gathering in such a place could be found in but few countrie outside of America. Because it can happen here is what makes America tick, what makes us love this land of ours and its institutions; what makes us fight for Its preservation as a land of opportunity. CONGRESSIONAL WASTE Rookie Representative Earl Wilton of Indiana, imaginative advocate of a 10 p. m. curfew" for government stenographers, recently popped up with another Idea.

It is the center, the hub. of a community. Its spiritual, social and cultural influence extends into the farm homes. The people of those homes are a part of the community of which the town is the hub. They, too, support it3 churches, its schools and its market place. They, too, are interested in its prosperity and advancement, and its continuance and improvement as a market place. Such improvement means increased convenience for them and increased values for their farm acres. For this town, and all other American towns, the shortage of rubber that makes necessary the saving of tires, is not an unmixed evil. There is less inclination for the towns people or the farmers to travel longer distances to larger market centers. The trade of the community is staying at home. The conditions of today offer an opportunity for tomorrow for the merchants of this and all other American towns. Buying that is now being done in local market places will continue after the war. provided all merchants make the most of their opportunities. For them it means larger and more varied stocks of merchandise. It means merchandising, instead of storekeeping methods. It means providing in home stores those things people have previously gone to larger centers to obtain. This and modern advertising methods in the home-towpapers will keep the business of the community in the home-towmarket place. n In one instance cotton brokers got wind of an agriculture parity price much. ihe Then there is Gen.
