And thrift is one of the most commendable habils to form.

TIPPING The old argument about tipping has broken, out again, and this time in Xew York, where it most prevails. Many victims of the practice, or imposition, insist, that it should be forbidden by law. Such corrective efforts have been made many times in many places, and apparently they have always failed sooner or later. There seems to be an odd ipiirk in human nature that, makes people take' pride in lipping, while they resent the compulsion ur persuasion that impels them to it.

Tt. is natural, too, for recipients of good service to feel like rewarding it. Most tipping, it may be observed, is of direct and personal nature. The tips come mainly to waiters, barbers, taxi drivers and otJiers giving immediate hnnum service. For service at a distance or in-a roundabout way, the possible, lo turn cold.

The story behind tho flood of stories on reconversion and civil- ion production that have emerged from Washington lately is that W.PB Chairman Donald II. Nelson is winning his battle for the right to guide the nation back to economy after the war.

Nelson has successfully hulled through his four-point reconver- sion program including the famous "spot authorization" order permitting resumption of civilian goods manufactured in areas when! it wil Inot hinder war production.

Thai is how Hitler, Goerinsr, Himmler and the rest will die. THEN wo must be wise enough to prevent it from preparing a third World War. The German command has now become anti-Nazi but il has always been nnti-civilizalion and anti-God. Let us remember the religious precept: "I fear God most, but next lo Him 7 fear most those who do not fear God." OF COURSE the Germans have a scheme.

It was also the Weimar Republic which protected Germany's criminals from pur.ishmenl. The German Xaiional Assembly which was elecied in a democratic manner, refused to give up the war criminals to the Allies for trial.
