Like voices crying In the wilderness the little nations of the world are supplicating America. They have been searching our oratund declarations of the peace aims of the United Nations to see Just how much we have, actually, promised to the little people." And they are not sure at the present writing that it is very much. Sooner or later the United States must go on record in black and white. In simple, straightforward English, a to what we can offer besides glory and honor and gratitude and sympathy for the men and women who have already felt the yoke of war. I hd that brought home to me Die other night It was nearly three oclock In the morning. The slim, earnest gentleman opposite me with the slightly foreign accent had lost track of time and it seemed as if the ancient clock on the bookcase was discreetly muffling its chimes. I was In no hurry for I knew I was hearing the soul of a nation speak. You must remember," my companion was saying, there are just two kinds of nations in the world today, the big ones and the little ones. And the little ones whose borders are not now the scene of actual fighting or those that are still battle-- , fields or may soon be all are filled with fear. Most of them have already felt the boots of Invaders. And they fear that tire great machine will roll over them again, that they will be obliterated and that when the peace comes, they will be forgotten. The big nations will make the peace." The next day I read the statement out of the Finnish legation that Finland wants to stop fighting as soon as the threat to her existence has been averted and guarantees obtained for her lasting security." At about the same time, there was made public in London the proposals for revising the constitution of the government of the Netherlands empire which would advance the autonomy of the Netherlands East and West Indies and other possessions. I had already heard a Hollander from Java state in most emphatic terms that plans would be carried through to give the Javanese an equal standing with all other citizens of the Netherlands empire after the war. He pointed to the fact that one Javanese had already held the post of foreign minister in The Hague before the days of the in- HSU Service. single-famil- ...

Compared to Dus, the test without storm sashing revealed that fuel consumption was 41 pounds an hour at a low degree temperature differential and increased to 260 pounds of fuel used In a differential. In other words, at a In outdoor-indoo- r differential trmprralurrs, the house, when equipped with storm sashing, saved 60 pounds of coal every hour over the house whrn net equipped wilh storm sashing.

The saving In more severe weather was increased to 21 per cent and was slightly less in mild weather. The mean, or average, saving In a season, according to figures announced by the society, came to 20 per cent. Insulation Helps, Too.

Even though accustomed to the 9 and 12 figure sums of wartime spending, the average American's brain may still reel under the impact of figures like these. However, translated into terms of the individual pocket book they boil down to something like this. The average small home having a central heating system burning oil uses approximately 2,000 gallons a season. Tests have proved that storm sashes save up to 20 per cent of fuel consumption. Therefore, on this basis installation of storm sashes alone would result in a fuel saving of 400 gallons of oil annually. Using eight cents a gallon as the cost of oil, the saving would amount to $32 a year. The same sized house using a central heating system that burned coal would need approximately 10 tons a year and on the basis of coal at $13 a ton, the savings would amount to about $26. Patriotic Aspect of Fuel Saving. There is also a patriotic connotation to these fuel savings. We must not forget that every gallon of oil. periods, with storm sash and without, to determine the difference in fuel consumption. The type of heating plant used was anthracite coal with forced air drafts. During the test the differential in outdoor temperature and indoor temperature ranged from 12 degrees to 72 degrees.

Using storm windows and doors, the fuel consumption ranged from 45 pounds of coal used at an 18 degree differential of UniNtTHEMAVY Of Future Peace Terms bf with four secretarir. together with the Colonel' JOHN DOE, the Lady and Judy OGrsdy," are knitting their trow a and looking with con iidrmtde uneaae toward that ecthn of the calendar marked winter."

From the American Society of being sponsored by the American Heating and Ventilating Engineer Society of Heating and Ventilating NOT DANGEROUS IF . . . temEven though the perature recommended by the OPA as a fuel savings measure might not be too comfortable, it is not likely to be detrimental to health, according to the opinion of the Bureau of Health Education of the American Medical association. The bureau further pointed out that reduced temperatures are uot dangerous if chilling is avoided and the resistance Is kept high by sensible hygienic the use of additional living clothing, especially a sweater, and woolen hose may be advisable." i that unused rooms be locked up for the winter without heat, the heat turned off in the garage for the duration of the war, and sun rooms, usually difficult to beat, should be shut off from the rest of the house and left without heat if possible. Doors to attics and unused rooms should be tightly closed and when fireplaces are not in use the dampers should be tightly closed to prevent heat from escaping up the chimney. Installation of thermostatic control is the only adequate means of maintaining uniform temperatures, according to authorities on heat control, and, therefore, is placed fourth on the American Societys fuel saving program. Tests with clock control" of heating plants have revealed that fuel is saved at the rate of 3.2 per cent a degree of lowered temperature. Therefore, if the temperature control point is lowered 10 degrees during the night or when te nperature at the highest point is not needed, 32 per cent of the fuel wid be saved. N-- vader. The Finnish statement and the Dutch intentions are both evidence of how those two small nations are trying now, to assure the big democracies that regardless of present conditions they only seek to maintain, or where it has to some degree been lacking, to attain, the democracy which they claim is as sincere as ours, whether they are under the oppressors heel, as Holland is, or are maintaining a lopsided, precarious neutrality like Spain, or even fighting against one of the Allies like Finland. (Finland is not at war with any country but Russia.) I think it is also evidence of the growing certainty of the part of the small nations, even those surrounded by Nazi bayonets, that it Is only a question of time until the United Nations will triumph. And they are afraid that war hatreds or indifference to the fate of the little nations will dominate the peace. They are afraid most of all that the United States will withdraw from the scene as we did after the last war leaving only a blueprint for peace, tbe League of Nations, and no power to enforce its decisions. The Atlantic Charter to them is not a very specific document. Newspaper Man And War Hero You have no idea how many farmers are in the aviation corps. Neither had I until I talked with a small town boy. I have mentioned him in this column before. It was an interview I had with Sergt.
