Shenk. Escalona drive, Monday evening, and had the pleasure of hearing Mrs. Louise Lovett review, "Jehovah to Jazz," by Helen Kaufman. The book is a story of the development of American musical expression from early days of psalm singing, to the present day of swing music. This is a book, not written by a musicologist, but by a music lover and is to be read with pure enjoyment, rather than as a text.

The evening closed with dancing. thinking in terms of what to do when through school. We should mU' rested in having boys and girls carry on a democracy, But it is watchful and readv to) flame out aeain.

I have talked dur- ing the last two weeks with a large variety of persons, in several states. There is no sign whatever of any shift in sentiment. Lord Lothian may tell us that Great Britain is fighting our battle. American correspondents home from Europe may tell us that we ought to get in and help the Allies. President Roosevelt may warn us in his public addresses as he did in his message to con- gress that it would be a sorry world for this great democracy if it were left alone through a smash-up of the British Empire.

Still it is no sale. I don't mean that the country west of the Alleghenies is indifferent to the war. On the contrary I find people everywhere intensely inter- ested. They are following the news closely. They know what is going on.

They are more interested in the war than in domestic politics, on the whole. The jockeying of prospective presidential candidates stirs only mild interest; in some places not even that. Greater issues are sensed. One of those though not the only one is the crisis in Europe. Generally I find quite definite sympathies.

There is no argument concerning the merits of the struggle in Europe. The desire for an Allied victory is evident everywhere. Public Mind Is Troubled The public mind, as I sense it in the middle west, is troubled. That Is why any discussion of the European situation arouses such interest. Newspapers are full of it, radio is full of it, and in every community lecturers, foreign correspondents, foreign visitors, are talking to audi- ences about the war and its mean ing.

I have seen several of these i I deal primarily with Europe rather U'itVl HrtlTKiS nnlifM'S Now, if these people had definitely minHe iW thi was strictly Eunice's affair, thev Every one knows, deep down, that it would be very serious business indeed if Germany and Russia won No one is anxious to face the full implications of that. All are hoping and hoping that during the spring and summer the Allies will dispose of the matter by a victory or a demonstrated ability to withstand the expected full attack. Until that time comes you don find many people who will admit that we have any real stake in this war, or that we ought to be doing anything about it. The voting now is for keeping out, for avoiding anything that would tend to entangle us. Public sentiment will not at this time support any very material government advances to European powers, Rifle Proposition Skater, On Thin Ice The United States government has advanced 10 million dollars to Finland and 10 million dollars to Norway.

People are noting a proposal to give Finland the new army rifles, at a nominal price of one dollar each. That proposition skates on rather thin ice as far as public sentiment out in the country is concerned. It might slide through without arousing much outcry but it is a little risky. The Allies have several billions of dollars in the United States. They are more directly involved.

Let them shell out for Finland. That is the attitude. The Atlantic seaboard may be working itself up into another cru- sade to make the world safe for democracy, but out this side of the mountains the dangers to the United States will have to be presented much more convincingly than they Shave been thus far before the people will become reconciled to any kind of direct intervention.

A new gov- jernment, considered by Japanese and foreign observers alike to be of I caliber, was formed last night by Japan's new premier, Admiral Mitsumasa Yonai.

It was expected to be sworn in today. A striking feature of the new cab inet, expected to carry on negotia w'th the United States for a I new trade agreement to replace the jone expiring January 26, is the 'greater representation given politi cal parties than has been the case in the immediate past. Yonai filled four portfolios with strong party men, emphasizing an evident increase of party influence in Japanese affairs. The new cabinet, considered a moderate group, includes eight ministers with previous cabinet experience but Japanese sources declared that none of the ministers was of sufficient caliber to direct a strong governmental policy. Yonai is known to be an advocate of closer co-operation with the United States and is expected to direct a pro-American policy, although his foreign minister, Hachiro Arita, a veteran diplomat, is known as the foreign minister under whom Japan signed the anti-comintern pact with Italy and Germany.

Sole holdovers from the outgoing cabinet of General Nobuyuki Abe were Shunroku Hata and Vice Admiral Zengo Yoshida, retained in their old posts, the war and navy ministries, respectively. In reliable quarters it was said army opposition prevented the appointment of a stronger cabinet, and vetoed especially the veteran Seihin Ikeda, who was considered the most capable candidate for finance minister. Foreign observers predicted the new caoinci was ioreaoomed to a short life because it constituted no fundamental improvement over the two previous cabinets, and would follow a middle-of-the-road policy in attempting to solve international problems, notably the American and Chinese questions, without taking any decisive step.

The yearly business meeting of the Pacific Canary Breeders' association was held at the same tmie, which Mrs. English attended as control board officer and Mrs. Gingerich as president.

Both were surprised to learn how rapidly the association is growing and expanding. It was well represented by Sacramento, Portland, San Diego, Santa Cruz, Centerville, Whittier, Los Angeles, Golden Gate S. F. Japanese California and Oakland clubs. The association has 17 thriving clubs.

The show is one of the best ever presented 319 entries, some from as far as Chicago. The rooms were beautifully decorated, the trophies many and the ribbons different from any seen before.

The local club made a beautiful bird friendship quilt with fanciers' names from coast to coast and it was awarded to Miss Genevieve Hartley of Los Angeles. Next year the Santa Cruz fanciers hope to have an entry of rollers in San Diego.
