Federal funds from the t-anham

children of mothers working in the

The chairman of Books Across
the Sea, a society of American and
British people which seeks to pro­
mote understanding between the
English reading peoples, has sent
Some questions to a sergeant at
. Camp Adair.
They are not questions to be an­
swered here. They are questions
which were raised by British peo­
ple at a meeting in Lancaster Hall,
Enfield, England. To Americans
they must seem strange — as
strange as the questions that a
similar meeting of Americans
might be »»king, about life in the
British Isles.
But these questions also are
illuminating. Indirectly they call
attention to certain American prob­
lems and convey some notion of
how such problems are regarded,
across the sea. Here are some of
the questions:
“Could you tell us what is the
attitude of the Negro toward the
States? Does he regard the States
as his country in the same way that
people in the other parts of the
country regard the States as
theirs? Is there much inter-mar­
riage? Are the Negro associations
on a more solid basis than they
were? What is the Negro’s feeling
toward the war? What place do
the American Indians hold in
American life?
“Do you think the prejudice
against Russia is decreasing among
the people and do you think the
American government will have
difficulty in persuading the people
In favor of Russia after the war?
“Will you tell us what the reac­
tion of the American people is to­
ward Mrs. Roosevelt? Leaving
aside the European racial question,
would you agree that the main sup­
port of isolation of the Lindbergh
section came from the wealthy
classes ami was based on opposi­
tion to Roosevelt arising from the
New Deal? Is there a Fifth Column
in the U. S. A.?
"Am I right in believing that the
political party prejudice in the
States is far more spiteful, stupid
and selfish than it is in this coun­
try? Would you agree that Roose­
velt has been in front of the Amer­
ican people, whereas in this country
for the last three years people have
been in front of the government?
Is there any real difference be­
tween the Democrats and the Re­
publicans ?
“Would you touch briefly on the
enormous power of the State gov­
ernment as against Federal gov­
ernment? What is your opinion of
the character of your pressmen?
Many of us feel that the British
press has deteriorated as the result
of the influence of American jour­
nalism.
“Not having been able to estab­
lish a Civil Service, would you say
that you have not been successful
in establishing a non-political diplo­
matic service? Would you agree
that our propaganda in America
has been very badly managed?
How are you going to man all the
battleships which are being built?”
