I disagree with Senator Glass because he favors war on Germany but I respect him for not being a hypocrite. Dr. Butler, cf Columbia University, favors aid to Fngland. If I remember correctly, he is the man who once said: "It is intelligent to commit suicide." I would also like to know: Why men like Conant, of Harvard, and Ford, of Minnesota, declined to debate on aid to England with Hutchins, of Chicago. Why, if it is the settled policy of the United States to assist those who resist aggression and fight for freedom, that we didn't help Finland who pays her debts and do help England who doesn't.

How Messers. Willkie and Hopkins are able to learn all about the world situation by spending a week in England. When are we going to start listening to men that tell the truth instead of blindly following those who repeatedly utter falsehoods. I am sure every American warns to uphold the right, so why not, instead of praying for an English victory, pray thus: Gri, great Father who art in heaven, let us not be quick to la. id nr condemn and help us to give to all their just deserts: lend us Thy wisdom that our course be light and Thy will be done, that truth and justice may ever prevail.

It was only a few weeks ago that a- electric clock on our kitchen wall st'itcd balking and it was gently suggested I soak a rag in gasoline and clean it a bit, to get accumulated grease off. You know how vapors from something being roasted or fried ascend in a kitchen and gradually get things sticky no matter how often you start a general cleaning. So I took the clock down and took its glass face off and then decided I'd unscrew the back. And the darn thing resolved itself into its component parts. And I had no more idea how to put them buck together than I might have had about restoring Westminster Abbey.

So I put the parts in a tin pail and took them to a clock expert, and he said he could clean all the wheels and dingbats and gadgets and put them back together for $2. "I thank you. kind sir." I returned, with my innate and never-failing courtesy, "but I can buy a new one for $1.35." "I would be grateful if you would do so." said he. with a look of relief.

National defense legislation authorizing the creation of a State Defense Corps to take the place of the Georgia National Guard is expected to take precedence over other measures in the house of representatives today. Indications were yesterday that Governor Talmadge would ask the house to give special attention to a bill setting up a state Council of Defense and providing for the establishment of a defense corps composed of a State Guard, Home Guard and Air Corps.

The chief executive is anxious to get the defense organization set up because of the fact the remaining units of the National Guard will be called into service at an early date, leaving the state without proper military protection. The House Committee on Military Affairs has reported out a committee substitute to a bill by Representatives Harvey Rough-ton, of Washington, and W. B. Bates of Ware. Although the bill is not on the calendar for today, Representative Roughton said yesterday he understood Governor Talmadge would communicate with Floor Leader J.

W. Culpepper, of Fayette, and ask that it be given immediate consideration. Substitute Measure. The substitute measure empowers the governor to create by proclamation a State Council of Defense to be composed of five members with the chief executive serving as chairman. The duties of this council would be to eo-ordinate the state and local activities related to national defense.

This council would be authorized to establish the State Defense Corps, comprising the three separate units. The purpose of the State Guard is to perform all duties heretofore performed by the National Guard. Duties of the Home Guard would be limited principally to the following: (1) For guard duty of bridges, highways, public buildings, utilities and communication plants and systems; (2) to act as air raid wardens and operate on air raid warning network; 3) to act as auxiliary firemen; (4) to direct civilian evacuation activities, and (5) to become auxiliary troops for combat purposes should the need arise. Groups Defined. The Home Guard troops are to be organized by each county and municipality and will not be subject for duty elsewhere.

Principal duties of the air corps will be to organize and train civilian pilots for military purposes and to supervise construction and maintenance of permanent and emergency air fields in the state. The Governor would be empowered to draw from any appropriations made for the maintenance of the National Guard for financing the defense program. After four hours of debate, the houe yesterday killed a bill regulate the practice of optometry. Sponsored by Representative Robert Elliott, of Muscogee, the bill was one of the most hotly contested measures yet to reach the floor. The vote was 85 for and against.

The bill needed 103 votes for passage. Proponents indicated they would not ask for reconsideration. Opponents of the measure insisted it tended to create a monopoly in the profession and leaned too far in the direction of overregulation. Pleads for Bill. Representative Elliott spoke for approximately an hour, explaining the bill and answering questions.

He argued that it would raise the standards of the profession. Representative Edward Wohl-wender, also of Musccgee, voted against the bill after the house failed to approve an amendment offered by him. Opponents of the bill, led by Representative Ben Willoughby, of Clinch; Marvin Allison, of Gwinnett, and L. A. Whipple, of Bleckley, pointed out that considerable pressure had been put the League stands for, although it failed miserably politically.

What is the meaning of the published statement of Richard A. Rowland, motion picture producer, that the "tendency of 1941 movies is toward the sexy in so far as the Hays office will let them This statement by Mr. Rowland appeared in an Atlanta paper last week during his visit here. The story went on to ay: "Rowland expressed belief that the public was in a mood for racy films, provided they are tactfully produced, but instead that no film is any better than its story. Rowland predicted that Mary Anderson, of Birmingham, 'who has the sex appeal to fit in with the 1941 trend in film would be an overnight star as soon as she is given the right leading etc.

As a coincidence to the published statement of Mr. Rowland, several friends who saw a picture called "The Philadelphia Story" have remarked that it was one of the sexiest things they had seen in a long while. I have not seen the particular picture, but I have high regard for the opinion of thflse whom I have heard comment on the picture. Another friend who goes regularly to picture shows remarked a day or two ago that a picture called "This Thing Called Love" was a cleverly wrought piece in the sex pattern. I go to so few picture shows that I wouldn't know about the trends.

I went to see every picture that Will Rogers made, and might have got the habit had that great man lived. I saw Spencer Tracy once in a great picture, "Captain Courageous," and was about to adopt him for my man, but somehow I have not been able to get back to another of his pictures. And then I saw Mickey Rooney in a great picture, and liked him tremendously, but the second time I saw him they took him out of his role as a real boy and tried to make a Valentino of him, and that was enough to finish me up in that hopeful field. That the picture shows influence public thought in this country, none of us would question for a moment. It is, therefore, a matter of very great concern in this year of all years that the picture show people should undertake to strengthen the general morale of the nation rather than weaken it through a program of vulgarity.

I hope that Mr. Rowland does not speak for the producers, and I hope that this "Philadelphia Story" from what I have heard of it, does not reflect the trend of the year.
