Why did, a woman on a certain radio program last evening emit such a sickly and apologetic laugh when she admitted to the announcer that she was a housewife by vocation? And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Ixrd, according to ah that his fathers had done. II Kings 23:37. Eil and good are Gods right hand and left. Hailey. Is that anything to be asham- ed of THE URGE TO Federation is in the air these days. The world is gradually realizing that a Europe cut into little political subdivisions, a Ealkan-ize- d Europe in short, was not good for Europe and not good for the world. The number of such countries was increased by the emWorld war. For instance,' the old pire, political monstrosity though it was, had a certain amount of justification as an economic free trade area. Splitting it into tiny divisions made each of those divisions an economic torso unable to survive. Hitler had something in his plan for economic unification of Europe. What Europe and the world cannot permit is that this unification be achieved by force and solely for the benefit and aggrandizement of the German reich. It must be done voluntarily and without sacrificing local free Hitler is utterly incapable of accomplishing it on any such decent basis. nt The world has got to stop believing that political freedom and local necessarily mean economic isolationism. The day is past when the two must necessarily go together. It is possible it must be possible in future for countries to maintain complete internal political independence, and yet give up some previously sacred rights to set up the kind of trade barriers that insure The Washington Merry- Go -Round HERO AVIATOR 9 Weight allowances. 10 Prong. 11 He con- Answer to Previous Puzzle Pictured hero flyer. ll Taro paste. lS Emblems o royalty.

Most of these islands, chronically poor, depend for such wealth as they have on exports of agricultural products. The war has cut them, off from Europes' markets. They are in a desperate plight. Plans are in the making for setting up a customs union between all these islands, the United States, and Britain. Meanwhile, more and more weight is being placed behind the proposal to lower and gradually eliminate tariff barriers between the United States and Canada, looking toward, some day perhaps enlarging the already, vast free trade area of the United States. Canadas currency is already closely aligned to that 01 the United States. Why not a common currency, suggest some. It would not necessarily involve political union. a there connected with independence the term.

Should the dispute reach this stage, it's a safe Det that both management and labor will accept the recommendations, (as they did in 1938), especially in view of public repercussions that would result from a tieup of defense transportation. Carrier and union spokesmen admit this privately. Note: Strongest union argument is the relative underpayment of tallroad craftsmen and laborers compared with other industries. A railroad machinist gets 83 cents an our as against $2 an hour for machinists in the printing machine industry, and an average of over $i in most other industries. Rail xbdrers draw a minimum of 36 cents an hour as against 62 cents in the steel industry. U.

In the past these bluestockings, shunhacienda and ned commerce. They spent their winters on the Riviera, spring in Paris, and only a few months of the year on their estate. But with Europe untenable they have been forced to remain at home, and with the Germans and Italians being driven out of business, scions ot the old families are showing an interest in this field.
