Sometimes an obscure citizen gets into a situation where he contributes to international good will without writing a diplomatic note, signing a treaty or making a speech. Take Capt. Hcnrik Kurt Carlsen, for instance. Good Will, Sympathy Good will and sympathy surged both ways across the Atlantic over the week-end as the result of !, Although the committee hnd j. i j wornen oui no neiinue pinn or ,1 '. j financing these improvements, one i Fair Board member said a "lot ! could be done with $30,000 a ' :! year," but said commitments to J-; I the Pioneer Museum might make this amount unavailable.

The Lions want a small triangle of ground between the Amazon and the city property on which the swimming pool Is built.

The average American and the aver age Briton were drawn closer to gether by a common enthusiasm for a brave deed. The old expres sion "hands across the sea" never had a more practical application than it did in the moment when a British seaman leaped from a British tug to the deck of an American ship and clasped the hand of an American skipper. It Is well that it happened be cause both nations are grvng to need a heavy backlog of ryd will to ride out their differences in the months to come. Churchill and Mr. Truman both made graceful! speeches when the prime minister reached Washington on Saturday. There will be more of the same before Churchill leaves for home and there is a good chance the men will come to some solid agreements, both in private and public. Money Main Issue But they are not even going to discuss in this meeting the one thing that is a constant irritant between Washington and London. That is money. The question of the financial relations between the two governments was ruled out for discussion before Churchill ever stepped off the Queen Mary. It will be brought up for consideration this spring by subordinate officials. The financial dealings between America and Britain are complex, but essentially it is the feeling between the rich uncle and the poor but proud kinsman. It boils down to this: Britain cannot stay out of bank ruptcy without loans or grants of American dollars. There is a sizeable section of American opinion that argues it is futile to continue to pay high taxes to raise money to pass on to Britain. That will be a hard fought issue in next year's presi dential campaign.
