No country engaged in a desperate struggle for existence can afford restraint, nice moral balancings, or even common decency. War is war. It is pretty useless to grow indignant over the fact that the most decent, civilized countries in the world are about to become a battleground for others.

Both sides were desperate. The British and French, seeing that neutrality rules in Norway were benefiting the Germans, decided to waive the rules and halt Scandinavian iron shipments at any cost. They were probably not averse to seeing a northern battle front created to break the Maginot Line-Westwall stalemate. The Germans decided not to stand idle while this essential source of supply was choked off. Without warning Germany invaded peaceful countries, getting in the first blow.

Neither side can plead any other but that ultimate -necessity. It is an ugly plea at best. It has been used to cover some of man's most despicable acts. It will be used again. That is war.

There is no use being holier-thanthou about it. Can we be sure we would not do the same things under the same circumstances? As the war approaches a showdown, neither the United States nor the other remaining neutrals can expect any consideration from either side. Should peaceful American shipping to neutrals, or any other American interest, cut deeply into the war resources of either side, that side will not hesitate to challenge them. We may as well begin to prepare ourselves mentally for that. The development of a "northern front" means that the long-simmering European war may break forth at last in full fury.

Maintaining American neutrality will be harder than ever. We shall need every ounce of patience, calm, and levelheadedness we can muster to keep the United States out of the spreading war that seems so likely to ruin every country which is sucked into its deadly whirlpool.

Research Solution To Farm Problems Considerable aiscussion has followed in the wake of the very fine address delivered at a joint meeting of the Madison County Farm Bureau and Jackson Chamber of Commerce members at the National Guard Armory Wednesday night by L. F. Livingston, manager of the agricultural extension division of the duPont de Nemours Company, who took the position that research offers the best way out of the perplexing farm situation in this country--a situation that has developed into a twisted economy with a large part of the farm population dependent upon government subsidies, with the export market badly crippled, with domestic consumption limited and with various stop-gap methods in vogue to keep the wolf from the farmer's door.

What Mr. Livingston says is true, for the limited amount of research done so far in this country reveals that agricultural products may be put to many uses and that a greater field for domestic consumption lies ahead. Already under the banner of the National Cotton Council new uses are being found for cotton and we look for much greater strides to be made in that particular. It must needs be, for we must find more methods of using the fleecy staple in this country to offset rapidly declining foreign markets. The Cotton Council looks hopefully forward to that hour.

Already progress has been made under government supervision in converting cull sweet potatoes into very fine starch. The plant at Laurel, has demonstrated this beyond any doubt. More plants of the type will appear throughout the South. The duPont de Nemours Company has done much excellent work in the field of agricultural research and is performing much real service to the farmers and to the nation. Results to be attained in the field of agricultural research are almost limitless and Mr.

Livingston is, we think, quite correct in taking the position that it offers the permanent solution of the farm problem in America. Congress begins economizing again, just like the wife who spends $18.98 for her sixth spring hat and saves $1.02 because it's marked down from $20. Jugoslavia reports a shortage of tin cans in its sardine factories, giving rise to the thought of how a kippered sardine might taste. Nobody knows the ingenuity of the small town office boy to provide kindling for starting the morning fire, when the boss takes no interest in the matter. There is too much confidence in a belief that the movie audience likes every kind of sport in the newsreel.

Often they wait until it is over restlessly. The foot of every bed should be a ket chest, out of which you pull a blanket at will. It is easy to disapprove of the human race. It really is pretty careless, isn't it? Spring is at hand. Look out! Spring is the season for mumps.

Press Comment Business In The Hemisphere (Nashville Banner) of her trade treaty with the United States Japan has lost little time since the termination. ment of new outlets for her products. Since the American treaty lapsed in January, she already has entertained a trade commission from Argentine and now is preparing to welcome a similar delegation from Mexico.

Additionally, she soon will send her ace trouble-shooter 'to the Latin American countries in an effort to recoup there the business forfeited upon expiration of U. S. patronage. Latin American countries have been the principal beneficiaries of those markets in which the United States have suffered a declining share. Under a trade treaty signed between Uruguay and Japan a year ago, the former increased its business with Japan.

agreeing to take Japanese wares for from 85 to 100 per cent of the amount of Japanese purchases. Last year, too, she signed an agreement with Germany pledging an increased commercial change. In 1938. Chile bought more from Germany than she did from the United States, though selling the Reich only about two-thirds as she sold to the United States. Argentine imports from the United Kingdom in that year exceeded imports from the United States.

Brazil imported more from Germany than from the United States, though selling almost twice as much to us as to Germany. Mexico's foreign trade has its particularly European sources, having wooed these especially since her expropriation policies disrupted normal international economic harmony. Great Britain now prepares to buy her cotton principally from South America--and so it goes. And most of these are "barter" nations. unloading their own wares in exchange for desired cargoes.

automatically reduce the amount of business these can do within the Western Hemisphere. But what is more important economic considerations, they are directly arrayed, in some instances, against Uncle Sam, as in the case of Japan. THE STREAMS ARE RUNNING AGAIN IN SCANDINAVIA Behind Scenes In Washington CALIFORNIA BE SHAKY GROUND FOR THIRD TERM BY BRUCE CATTON WASHINGTON, April is becoming more and more possible that the third-term movemeny may stub its toe in California in a big way. The Demoeratie party proaches its May 7 primary there troubled by a four-way split. Chances for a Roosevelt vietory in the primary are no better than even.

Because the carrying of California is of vast importance to the whole draft-Roosevelt movement, and because the party's split there is 1 in many ways symptomatie of basie national disagreements, the California picture is worth a little study. FOUR TICKETS IN FIELD Four tickets are in the field in the Democratic presidential primary. They are: 1-A state headed by Gov. Olson, pledged to President Roosevelt. There is actually a chance that this, the only out-and-out Roosevelt ticket in the field, may not even get on the ballot; several members of the original slate have dropped off since the delegation was formthere is a question whether what remains is a legal delegation, and a court test is expected.

2-A slate pledged to Lieut. Gov. Ellis E. Patterson, carrying with it a good part of the state's "liberal" backing, and likely to plunk for Senator Burton K. Wheeler if it gets to the convention.

Failing that, it could go for Roosevelt. 3-A party slate headed ham Willis Allen, boss of the 4-A "$30 slate every pledged Thursday" groupice President John N. Garner. HANDFUL OF VOTES MAY DECIDE In a four-way scrap like that, anything can happen. Californians here, who are in close touch with the situation, say that any of the four groups might win and predict that a difference of 25,000 votes may decide the outcomea microscopic difference in a state as big as California.

In addition, the bitterness raised by such a scrap could easily carry over into the fall election, with disastrous effects. PATTERSON GROUP COURTS C. I. 0. One significant angle.

is that Oliver Thornton. publisher of the United Progressive News in Los Angeles and head strategist of the chief left-wing group in California, has just made a flying trip to Washington, presumably to see John L. Lewis and to try to get C. I. O.

support for the Patterson ticket. Such a move would make sense in several ways. The Patterson group's favorite candidate is Wheeler, who is also Lewis' favorite Labor's Non-Partisan League in California has worked closely with Thornton in the past. Solidification of C. I.

League strength behind Patterson would be a logical next step in Lewis' recently announced program of political action.

TATE IS FILMLAND'S ORIGINAL YES-MAN BY PAUL HARRISON HOLLYWOOD, April original yes-man, the fellow who unintentionally launched a thousand jokes and legends in support of Hollywood's reputation for looniness, is still doing business at the same old stand. stands before Cecil B. DeMille occasienally, and with alert manner and voice clear, he says, Mr. DeMille." This is exactly the way he has been saying it for 24 years, ever since the significant but little-known incident about the sheep. Back in 1916, Cullen B.

Tate, red-headed youngster who of course was nicknamed "Hezi," worked in DeMille's company as second prop boy. He was constantly on the jump, scurrying about the studioand all over Hollywood, for that matter--in search of anything from an abacus to a zebra for use in picture making. One day the director said, "Get me six sheets." Tate wasted no time on a reply. He dashed away and in the remarkable interval of minutes returned with six sheep. DeMille was not amused by the misunderstanding.

He said sterngive you an hereafter, I want you to stand in front of me and if you're sure you know what I want, say 'Yes, Mr. Then go and If you don't understand the order, say so and I'll repeat it." And that's how Tate became a yes-man. You might think from all the stories you've heard about to sheep. But Tate hasn't worked them that yes are analogous out that way. He now is DeMille's production assistant and gives plenty of orders of his own.

When the Old Master isn't making a picture, Tate directs second units for other companies and specializes in chase and thrill sequences.

D. Ours is an age of speed. We have SO much speed that the chief job of a large proportion of all policemen is to keep us from going too fast to be safe. It is interesting that this speed we get from modern machinery of all kinds is due to the accuracy of modern mass production. It has been precision engineering accuracy--which makes this mechanical speed possible.

With people, it is exactly, the same. When we start learn something, we make much better efforts at accuracy. can do progress if we direct your early the things more speedily in the long run when we begin them by striving mostly for accuracy. Look out for accuracy and speed takes care of itself. The speedy typist is the one who gives most attention to accuracy at the start.

The speedy draughtsman is the chap who as a beginner watched his accuracy closely. One thing that makes them speedy is that they are not slowed down by correcting mistakes. In learning to drive an automobile, in taking 10 easy piano lessons at home, in learning a new game--in all learning, in we should watch accuracy shorthe early stages of learning, and at the end will have both greater speed as well as more accuracy. Trying to separate accuracy from speed is as impossible as settling whether the the egg is more important. We can't have the one without the other.

Fast talkers impress most people as being smarter than a whip. But fast talking is more likely to be a sign of superficial thinking than of profound thinking. It takes both brains and reserve for a person think twice before he talks. If he does think twice, the odds are he will talk only half as much. NEXT: Why are the public schools emptier? END OF ECONOMY (From The Magazine of Wall Street) There have been many false starts in the past few years in the direction of curtailment of government spending, but none was more convincing than the economy move that got under way at the opening of the present Congressional session and persisted right up until the last week of March.

The House especially had shown a marked determination to tighten its belt where fiscal matters were concerned and, for the better part of three months, had been nibbling away at the administration's January budget figures. Most encouraging of all was its action in ing the president's estimate for agricultural appropriations to 000,000. Now, however, it appears that economy bloc is disintegrating, the log-rollers taking over place. With a whoop and a holler, the Senate boosted farm funds to $923,000,000, a good round 000,000 over the president's figure: the House, catching the spirit of the game, has stepped up projected outlays for the National Youth Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps. surprising that economy has once more gone by the board.

Excessive government spending will be difficult to halt even under the most favorable conditions and it certainly cannot be halted without a strong administration backed majority in Congress. And that seems to be completely out of the question for the present. K. O. CAVALIER BY JERRY BRONDFIELD CHAPTER VIX Eddie Cavalier never thought he could yell as loud as he did.

"Man overrrboarddd!" The cry was taken up farther down deck and again the wailing blast of the Northern Belle's whistle sounded over the wind. Barney MacGregor was first to reach him. "It's Val' Eddie yelled. "Just as I got to her a wave washed her overboard." Barney's face went white. Searchlight, port astern!" he shouted.

An instant later a silver shaft of light swung into the sea. "Lifeboat No. MacGregor bawled. "All hands "There she is!" shouted hoarsely, as the searchlight picked up a white face that suddenly bobbed up on top of a big roller 30 yards out. "Thank God we were reversing the engines when she went over," MacGregor yelled.

"Otherwise she wouldn't have a chance." Then to the men. "Lively does it!" he roared. Val's face disappeared from sight and Eddie Cavalier felt as if a battering ram had hit him in the stomach. In a split second he had torn his shoes off and mounted the rail with a life preserver. He tossed the cork ring as he could and then plunged over the rail after it.

he terrific The cold shock. water Eddie gave held him his a breath tightly and fought his way toward the surface. He struggled clear just when it seemed he'd never get to the top. He gulped a big mouthful of air and looked around. "The crazy, blitherin' fool!" MacGregor roared.

"Now we've got two o' them to fish out instead o' one." Barney cursed and cilmbed into the lifeboat that was being lowered from its davits. Eddie was a strong swimmer, but as he struck out toward the spot he had last seen Val, he never thought anything could be as tough. Every rolling sea that broke over him left him fighting helplessly until the learned the secret of riding the great waves and resting he slid the other side. It seemed like an eternity until he reached that spot. He tread water furiously.

His arms felt like lead. Off to his right he saw her again in the brief second the searchlight played back and forth. She had recovered consciousness, but he knew she must be too weak to struggle much longer. It was a matter of seconds, probably. He had to reach her before she went under again or it might be too late.

Eddie lunged toward her. The rain beat in his face anda blinded what little vision he in the solid depths of the water. Then the searchlight picked them both up and he breathed a silent prayer. At least he could see where he was going now. "Hold on!" he shouted.

1. "I'll be there in a second!" He doubted if she could hear. The look on her face drove him to one last frenzied effort. He took a final look at her struggling feebly, as he hit the top of a wave. It carried him deep into the trough with her.

She had already started to sink from sight when he caught a hand in her oilskins. He tread water while he fumbled the heavy garment. He had wither that off her before he did anything else. The dead weight would be enough to pull them both down. Once she was freed of the encumbrance he grabbed her under the chin with one hand and started swimming toward the life preserver floating a few yards away.

If it had been another yard he never would have made. it. He was completely spent when he DeMILLE LIKES A GOOD ARGUMENT grabbed hold of the bobbing circle and hung on. He hoped he had strength left to maintain his grip until they got to him. He shifted his grip on Val cautiously until he finally got an arm around her.

It had taken them an awful long time swing that boat over side, the thought. Half- choked, blinded by water, he could see them fighting their way toward him. The heavy sea had carried Val and himself a good way from the ship. "Keep fightin'!" he could hear Barney yelling from the bow of the boat. "Hang on, kid!" Keep fighting hang on sure easy to but what was he going to Shang on with didn't have any arms left can't let go, though.

Can't! There they 40 feet 20 closed his eyes and sagged against the side of boat. Strong arms reached down and them over the side. Then everything went black for Eddie Cavalier. When he opened his eyes an hour later he looked up into Duffy Kelso's frightened face. Eddie never had seen Duffy funny before.

He smiled wanly. "I thought you were seasick," he cracked weakly. "Sick?" snorted Pop Grimes. "When he heard. what was happening, he down deck and was frightened out of it." Eddie frowned.

"What am I doing in bed?" "What're you doing in bed!" Duffy Kelso was up to par again. "Here you go swallowing half the Pacific ocean and flirtin' with pneumonia, at least, and you ask what are you doing in bed. Sometimes I think I'm runnin' a kindergarten instead of managing the next middleweight Pop nodded. "That's right, kid. You shipped a lot o' water out there.

We had an awful time rollouta you once we got you on board. What a beating you musta took." drew the covers up around Eddie's neck. "It was a fool stunt, kid. but we're proud o' you. She'd of drowned, sure.

if you hadn't been there to hold her up till heip came." "Is she okay?" Eddie muttered. "Yeah, sure. She's fine." said' "Swallowed a lot of wet stuff, same as you did, and prob'ly was scared half to death, but she'll outa it by morning. That snap dame's got plenty of th' old Moxie." Eddie nodded. "She put up a battle out there until I reached her.

I could see it in her face." Pop grinned. "Talk about a battle. MacGregor tells me they on hand, you had such a just about, had to use a crow-bar death clutch on that dame. You weren't going to let go, come what may." "No," said Eddie. "No, I guess I wasn't." (To Be Continued) SOUTHERN BAPTIST MISSION LEADER TO VISIT HAWAII RICHMOND, April 12-4AP) -Dr.

McI Camey of Texas and Tennessee. Besides, he revealed, DeMille doesn't like mere acquiescence "If you say 'yes' to one of his suggestions, he's likely to ask, 'Why do you think so?" DeMille will take an argument and like it if it's sensible, but he doesn't have many because he's right 90 per cent of the time. And he doesn't like to hear people say 'no' to him just to show that they're not yes-men. "He's a genius at handling large crowds of people: I remember on 'The Crusades' I had charge of a mob of extras who were to storm a wall. I worked with 'em, but the scene was ponderous no zip to it.

So then began working He raved and hollered and gave me hell. He bawled me out until the extras were so sorry for me that they pitched in and stormed that wall like demons. "When I'm bawled out I never take home with me to brood over because I know that DeMille is impersonal on the set and is I just working to make a picture. also know this because he has, at times, been angry with me personally. When that happens, he doesn't rant at me on the set; he calls me into his office after hours and then doesn't raise his voice." TATE HANDLES ALL THE DETAILS As production assistant, Tate works a few days ahead of DeMille by keeping an eye on sets, costumes and all the other multiple details SO that everything will be ready when the director comes to that part of the script.

In "North West Mounted Police," Lynn Overman spanks Paulette Goddard, and Tate rehearsed in advance to work out the other comedy effect. He also figured out? comedy duel between Overman and Akim Tamiroff in which each shoots off most of the other's clothes. He plots out the mass battles and camera angles. When I saw him, he was selecting a bunch of halfbreeds for a scene to be filmed two days later. LOOK AT THE RECORD (From The Magazine of Wall Street) half our done good manufacturing a job in industries public relations as they have consistently done in production, political attacks upon them would get scant hearing from the American people.

Statistics now available show that productive efficiency is greater than ever before and that the benefits of this progress have been -and are being shared equitably between the consuming public, the workers and the owners. At the rate of the past six months the physical output of manufacturers was substantially above the annual average of the prosperous period 1923-1929. The consumers pay some 14 per cent less for these goods than they paid during the roaring '20's. The workers get an hourly, higher wage than rate nearly averaged 30 per in was 1923-1929. Yet the profit margin of the manufacturers, while a bit less than in 1929, is approximately in line with the 1923-1928 average.

The latter statement is confirmed by the factual records of the year 1937 and is supported in a general more recent, but far less complete, evidence. have some serious problems, but they do not center in industrial goods or in the short-comings of manufacturing industry. Rather, they center largely in conI struction-especially housing--in foreign trade and in agriculture. Our political planners might well turn their eyes in these directions and. lay off industry.
