Economic War Is Held Alternative To British Loan CLEVELAND, Jan. The state department's international trade expert said today rejection of the pending $3,750,000,000 loan to Britain would touch off a worldwide economic war which would cost this, there country should billions be of an dollars. economic war, we doubtless could win it," Clair Wilcox, director of the department's international trade policy office, said in a speech prepared for Cleveland's City Club. "But it would be a sorry victory. "The division of the world into contending economic blocs would be a tragedy, not only for Britain, but for us and for every other nation on earth." Would Raise Tariffs Wilcox contended that failure to make the loan would drive Britain into raising her tariffs against this country, widen the margins of imperial preference and cause her to enter into separate deals with other countries.

This in turn, he added. would force the United States to regiment its import and export trade and "deprive our domestic industry of a large measure' of its freedom. Wilcox termed Britain "a risk" and, asking himself whether the loan would be repaid, replied that "all that she needs is a chance to come back." He added: "The real question the repayment of this loan and other foreign loans is whether the world is going to be prosperous and foreign trade large. "If our hopes for the expansion of world trade and employment are realized. the service on this loan will be manageable.

If they are not. and if there is another great depression, much greater values will be lost than the repayments on this loan." Not For Socialization Wilcox said Britain could not use the money to socialize her industries. Maintaining that "if the coal mines or the railroads or the utilities are to be socialized, their owners will be paid in pounds, not in dollars, or, more likely, simply by trading public, bonds for private shares."

Patterson was scheduled to leave for Cairo today aboard his special plane, and to fly to Frankfort Tuesday. He then will return to Washington, Max Is Here But His By Past MYRTLE Is Mystery Sacramento has new canine citizen. And what a citizen it is, too. The intriguing part of the whole thing is that all we know about this wonder dog is that his name is Max.

It all started December 19th when Mrs. Anita Green received a cable from her young officer Roy, from Le Havre, France, saying that he was shipping her Christmas present by express and that its name was Max. Not another word and it so happens that mail from him has been so uncertain that not letters have been received since that time. Naturally the rest of the family was all agog, waiting and wondering about Max. Max Arrives The waiting ended Wednesday afternoon when Mrs.

Green received an urgent and almost frantic call from the local express office to the effect that Max had arrived and would she please come and get same. Naturally the express man was questioned as to just what Max was and his interesting reply was to the effect that he wasn't sure just what it was but that the "package" weighed 300 pounds. In due time Mrs. Green collected Max. He proved to be a dog but one the like of which none of them had ever seen before.

The 300 pounds was correct but that included the crate so that helped little. Anyway there was Max in all his glory, ready and willing to accept his new family. Word spread around that Max had arrived SO friends and neighbors flocked to look him over but Hire next ancestry was morning still a Mrs. mystery. Green called upon the writer to interview Max and see what could be found out and that meeting merely added another admirer to Max's string.

My guess is that he is a mastiff al. though the color differs somewhat from the official standard. He what we call here a light red all over and the standard allows an apricot color but the mask must be black, which Max's decidedly not. Then, too, his tail has a slight brush to it whereas the mastiff's is slick to the end. However, those breeds from the European continent, differ times but from that our does stand- not mean that they have not been pure strains for many generations.

few of the large working breeds SOn here that we are not really qualified to judge th them. Perfect Gentleman Max is truly a wonderful in' dog. He is a perfect gentleman every way, perfectly housebroken and is what you would rightly call a sensible dog. He is not a young puppy, which is a break for Mrs. Green because if he were in the rollicking and playful stage he would indeed be a problem.

As it is he has great dignity and understanding which is brought out in a big way by his tolerance and gentleness with the very small grandson in the family. Fortunately he prefers the house and that is a break because a fence to hold in a dog of his size and strength would have to be of a structure strong enough to a Of course when he lies down on the living room rug you just have room to walk around the ledges. Feeding A Problem Feeding Max is going to be a serious problem until they get organized. The first night was a little confusing but the problem was solved by giving him a roast of lamb and he was still hungry. We are all anxiously waiting for some additional word from Roy, Jr.

because there must be some interesting story connected with Max. He is no ordinary dog and. because of his age, not one that you would be likely to see in a pet shop window and become intrigued. Anyway, Sacramento has its own equivalent to the famous Blaze and the writer wishes he were sitting on her front room rug. He is a honey!

Bromley Oxnam, of New York, head of an American delegation which surveyed relief needs in Europe, said today the group's report had been "unfortunately misunderstood and misquoted." and it did not advise churches here against sending food to Europe. Bishop Oxnam made the statements in an interview when told three prominent churchmen had sent a cablegram from Geneva, Switzerland, taking exception to the American delegation's report, which it quoted as saying churches need not send food to Europe. He explained: "What the report did say was that churches and individuals would have no need or opportunity to contribute food, or money to purchase food. for persons in the American occupied zone of Germany. Not Europe As A Whole "We are not referring to Europe as a whole just that portion of Germany." The cablegram was addressed to Dr.

Robin W. Barstow, director of the Commission for World Council Service, a Protestant Church group interested in relief of war torn countries. who remarked he was "surprised to hear that any churchmen still misunderstood the report at this time, because we have been busily explaining it to everyone concerned for the last two weeks. "The government allows us to send both food and clothing to other countries of Europe, and we have been sending it right along. but it will not allow us to send even clothing to Germany because it has not worked out a policy concerning relief to former enemy countries.

The state department and our military government officials keep putting us off." The Signers The cablegram from Geneva was signed Hutchinson Cockburn, former moderator of the Church of Scotland and now director of the World Council of Churches reconstruction department in Geneva; S. C. Michelfelder, American representative and director of the council in Geneva, and Paul Neff Garber. European bishop of the Methodists, who is associated with the reconstruction program.

Now he is getting to go through his first agonizing puppy love affair in The Green Grass Of Wyoming and the juvenile recipient of his affections is Jane Powell.

borrowed from MGM. The Green Ronald Colman Grass Of Wyoming was written by Mary O'Hara, who wrote those two previous hits of the 20th, My Friend Flicka and Son Of Flicka, Rita Johnson and Preston Foster are the "grownups" in the latest film. Ronald Colman's visits to the Warner lot fooled a lot of people last week. The rumor was all over town he was quietly testing for Life With Father It isn't true, Ronnie is going to star in C. S.

Forrester's tall adventure tale, Captain Hornblower. I hope it gives him a chance to be amusing as well as his usual dashing romantic self. The very pretty Constance Moore is doing all right at Republic. She has just made a new deal to star in Golden Tide, by Vingie Roe, a story of early California and the gold rush. Joan Crawford, who never appears in public in careless attire, looked particularly glamorous at Louis B.

Mayer's dinner. Everything seems to be coming Joan's way these days. Just heard the Biltmore Theater has been leased for a month for a revival of Noel Coward's Design For Living, and Joan has been asked to play the girl. Clifton Webb, who was on the New York stage, and Rex Harrison who played it in London, are the two actors chosen. Judy Garland has rented Fannie Brice's house at the beach while carpenters build a nursery for her expected baby; Robert Coote, lunching with Lee and Herbert Marshall, greeted old friends.

He's been with the Royal Canadian Air Force five and a half years and will soon be back in pictures: I. Arthur Rank is bidding for Bloomer Girl for picture; Rita Hayworth is in the desert getting some rest.

Coughlin today sentenced Walter Stough, 36, of Route 1, Box 1870, Yolo County, to San Quentin Prison for the terms prescribed by law on charges of rape and lewd and lascivious conduct. Stough was convicted by an all male jury last January 4th. Under the state laws Stough is liable to terms of from one to 50 years on the rape charge and one to 15 years for lewd conduct. Judge Coughlin said the terms which will be fixed by the California Adult Authority shall run consecutively. Coughlin also denied Stough's motion for a new trial.
