Erich Leinsdorf, Austrian, was directing a Metrojadi-ta- n Opera performance of Tannhaeuser, an opera by the German, Wagner. Singing were Kirsten Flagstad, Norwegian; Lauritz Melchior, Dane; Kerstin Thorberg, Swede; Herbert Janssen, German ; Alexander Kipnis, Russian ; and Arnold Gabor, Hungarian. Man can be international in music, art, and literature. But when he comes to politics he reverts to a much more primitive nationalism. Would there be greater harmony, do you suppose, if every country fired its political leaders and appointed orchestra leaders in their places? j j Ji UNNATURAL TRADE i : , Y i ? Kiii il I t Once again the War God steps up to the cash register and plays a tune of dislocation. United States investments of $221,000,000 in Scandinavia are jeopardized by the German invasion. In January and February the United States shipped $30,618,000 worth of goods to those countries, and received $14,945,000 worth in return. That trade, for the present at least, is gone. It is possible that Britain will call on the United States for some farm products formerly obtained from Denmark. But in general Mars has again narrowed the trade field. With every such restriction, the necessity is all the greater to maintain and increase domestic buying power. is not a goal to be desired but under present circumstau. it is increasingly a necessity to be faced. nt HI; ; j Approximately 50 per cent of the wear on an tire occurs in the four warmest months. ml; n li,'1 Im i iil-- 1 i Commissioners free city water of Littlefield, Tex., have ruled that to firemen. be supplied only The favorite indoor sport of Sweden is eating, five meals being served daily. t North Carolina has the largest of all rattlesnakes.

Despite this obvious truth, some people still insist on having the dog live right in the front room, with uroess to the best china, the best furniture, the evening newspaper, the supper tuble, shaving set, and clothes closet.

And It is certain he would have turned up his nose at newfangled dog hiacuita, erfiimed liver pills, and juidy mor- chocolated sedatives! Old Purp was another dog around the. ranch. She succeeded Tip. She was smaller and neater, but she was still dog she smelled like one when she entered the house. Thats why she was seldom admitted, e cept during the hunting season when the shots of guns make her quiver with fear. Then she'd cry to come in, and go right to the corner without any fuss. She, too, was satisfied at being subordinated to the human being. She chased cows when she was sicked on to them, came running to meet you when you returned from church, had sense enough not to rear her front legs on your best clothes, expected to be cussed about once a day, and was rather cheerful about the whole thing. Then came Old Bob. Hes the one the folks have at the farm no v. Intelligent, in some ways almost human, and anxious to serve. Old Bob is following the traditions of those who came before him. He doesnt seem to mind not having a corner on all the fireside luxuries. His appetite is not diminished by the tact that he is asked to eat his minis outside after the family has finished. He exhibits no looks of chagrin when told to make his bed in the barn or garage, and not to use the family bathtub. And if someone speaks gruffly to him, he takes his medicine without going into a pout. Of course. Old Bob has an accommodation his predecessors didn't u: iiitve. He's such a good hunting dog, that during the duck or pheasant season, he goes with the men. Then he gets a chance to ride in the cur. But he knows belter tlmu to climb on the seat. .

If that happens, we have to live at home and consume things that we used to sell abroad. Hence, its smart to find out whether the stamp plan would be a workable means of ."'"'ng that problem.

With cotton, not more than about 20 cents out of every dollar will go to the grower; the rest will go to labor, to distribution and to the re- tailer.

Plan will be the same as for food stamps, in that the same peowill participate, reliefers ple and will get free stamps, good in any store, along with the stumps they pay cash for. Stamps will be good for purchases of cotton goods. The plan will be different in that stamps will be distributed quarterly instead of twice a mouth; also the outlets will be mostly department stores insteud of grocery stores.
