Phoents, TalenL Editorial Correspondence (Continued from yesterday) WASHINGTON, D. C, Oct. 8. We haven't been aa amused and interested in a conversation for a long time, and still don't quite understand how we resisted joining in it for many matters wore discussed upon which we would have lilted further ciilii-'litcniiieiit, the DKFINITION of a gentleman for exHinple. The Southern girl averred you could always depend upon a Virginia University man, knowing how to dress, how to dance, how to talk, how to make love, how to ride a horse and how to shoot and she never knew a Harvard or Yale man that knew how to do more than two or three of these things more often onlyONK! We hoped the "Nawthen" gal would ask if he also knew how to get a job and make a living if he GOT one, hut she didn't. She simply refused to join the Virginia cheering section, otherwise she appeared to agree with everything the Dixie belle asserted. We were greatlv interested when the two girls alighted, a fat, pink-checked lad, greeted the booster for U. of V., and considering the reputation he had already been given for 100 gentlcnianliness, we were rather surprised to observe he didn't take the cigaret, out of his mouth when he talked, and kept shooting approving glances at the girl from the north, whose "blind date" did not show up. In short his manners toward his girl friend we felt compelled to term decidedly cavalier, fand we don't mean the sort of "Virginia cavalier" that later led the Virginia college hand up the gridiron!) We were even more surprised when he (the fat hoy) remarked he had to get a shoe shine, for lie had to play football in about two hours. (We then and there abandoned all hope of any sort of contest, for there are fat boys AND fat boys, but this one was unmistakably a bowl of mush I Also smoking eigarets, though perhaps that, we thought, was one of the marks of being a gentleman in sports at Chiirlotteville!) Well as before stated the game was a beauty, not a dull moment from start to finish, ending in a -Navy win but Vir ginia on her heels all the time, final score 14 to 12. And the fat boyf We worked on the editorial field glasses half an hour before we finally located him. He wasn't in uniform. He was in liis shirt sleeves, throwing out head guards and footballs from the side lines, the third assistant football manager we decided. It was hot, his face looked like a chil dren's circus balloon on the point of exploding, and in addition to his other activities, he threw blankets over the shoulders of some of the heroes as they were We wondered where the nroltv little irirl wns. for rIip WAS prfttty, and bright, even though an we reported her conversation 4 i i i . i , , , , it may have sounded dumb. We wondered also, did she tiilk about the code of gentility on pus, on the return trip? But the conversation provided a useful ba-ckpround for a :ame in which otherwise we would have had no particular in terest. For that "gentleman " refrain kept Roiuiu up, not only when the gentlemanly" undergraduate kicked the crude and plcbian navy lad in the ribs, fand lost the name as a result), but when hy actual count six GENTLEMANLY Virginia undcr fjradimtes were carried out our entrance (only one of several) so drunk they couldn't locomote. In fact, while Virginia couldn't beat the Navy on the field of battle, they certainly could in hard, long and fancy drinking. Perhaps it is characteristic of eastern football in these degen erate days, but we have never seen so many drunks of both sexes in our life, at any college game, the favorite concoction appearing to be coco cola spiked with a mixture of alcohol and dynamite I Later at the Carvel Hall the "Wind date" showed up a very small and slender but attractive looking midshipman, in fact in their well fitting black uniforms and white caps, they are a stunning lot. Not so impressive physically, as West Point perhaps, but so clean and fresh and nice! They also look like young men of intelligence and character. Well' being the pick of the land, WHY NOT 1 Sorry wo can give no further information on the two school girls and their escorts. The Washington boarding school they attended had a special bus for the return trip properly chap eroned after sunset. If that girl from the "nawth" bad any brains or spunk SHE did have something to tell that pretty little girl with the southern accent on the return trip.

As a teacher Prof Sherman seems to be a prolific au thor: as an author Prof. Rose Is fine teacher, Dr. Rose points out that when the picture of Mickey's forebear was made he was 8 months of age and weighed less than he had weighed at the age of 4 weeks. His failure to grow and his senile appearance are due to lack of vitamin O. In the portrait the eyes of the wizened old fellow seem almost closed. One wonders whether he has cata ract. In the same chapter Dr. Rose tells how cataracts may be produced In rats, mice, chicks, monkeys, by a diet adequate In other respect but deficient or lacking In vitamin O.

WASHINOON. Oct. 12. The bet tlnn Is good that, despite the Re publicans' frantic effort to keep them to the fore, domestic Issues have sunk into an obscurity which will last as long m the war. This Is true for three reasons, all highly prac tical. First, home-front controversies lose interest In a world in flames. Sec ond, attacks on the new deal do mestic program, which pocked them in when business was poor, cannot draw large crowds when business Is booming. Third, while the war pros perity continues, the president Is un likely to feel the urge to present great new measures of a controversial nature. AU of which explains why treasury men and other administration mod erates are wearing broad, contented smiles, while the new dealers, feelinc at a loss without a reform to press for. are sitting around looking pus hed and slightly unhappy. The real essence of the domestic situation is the improvement in business, which currently promises to be almost astronomical. Even the most pessimistic left-wing economists !i.knouei,;e that, by next summer th" unemployment total may cut from 10 000 000 to 5 000,000.

Qt'ESTlONS AND ANSWERS Par-HolHng Your a!Iu.lon to pasteurization as "par-boiling" is unscientific and mis leading to the laity. Do you infer that because you happen to dislike the taste or color or method of dis tribution of a given product it Is necessarily unsuitable for other peo ple? M. W. H. Answer I almost well, I get all In a dither at the very suggestion of mashed potato anywhere in the environment but if you like potato in mat deplorable state I assure you it w as nutritious, digestible and healthful as In any other form. Par boil means "to boil partially; to over heat: to render extremely uncom fortable by heat." Ijong while ago It meont "to boil thoroughly," but that sense is now obsolete, according to weosier. i-asteurize means to heat to a temperature considerably less than boiling to 145 degrees F. (boil ing is 212 degrees F.) and hold at that temperature for 30 minutes. That kills any disease germs likely to be In the milk. Simpler, for mak ing nondescript milk safe for adult. invalid, child or infant. Is scalding ring mo milk to bollinn for one minute only, and then let It cool. Milk so heated Is quite as safe for any one as Is any grade of milk pasteurized. Monographs Please give a list of health hints or treatises you have available for correspondents who ask for them.

With spending temporarily taken from them, the conservatives will bo reduced to com plaining about existing new deal re forms, such as the national labor relations act. But thLs type of attack has never been as successful as the assault on a broader front, and the president seems Inclined, In any case, to meet It by such steps as the recent Improvements In NLRB per sonnel. AltogethT, the question of whether domestic Issues are likely to be im portant soon again really boils down to the question whether the presi dent is likely to trot out any new white rabbits. The possibilities In the white rabbit line fall Into two categories pre-war measures, like the new dealers" great pensions and public health programs, and post war measures, such as excess profits taxes and price control laws. The treosury men are cheerfully confident that, nothing serious will be done, and their confidence seems reasonably well founded. The presi dent Is tending, more and more, to accept the advk-e of his congressional leaders, who will certainly warn against any novel adventures In leg islation. Certain members of the ad ministration who have always been activists before Attorney General Prank Murphy, for example now hope for a passive, lct-well-enounh-alona policy. And even the new dealers, the Inexhaustible exponents of activism, are not clear In their minds as to what the "partv line" should be. j Some say that excess profits taxes and price controls will "probably be necessary." Others argue, rather faintly, that the pensions snd pub- lie health programs will be accept- ; able to conservatives, and therefore may be attempted. Silll others say j that there has been no decision on these- matters. Even the new dealers' ally. Secretary of the Interior Harold : I Ickes. has admitted that "this ; may be no time for Inaugurating j major reforms." j All of which may b taken. In i turn, as the full explanation of the president's peace wtth the conserva tive Democrats de-rlbed in Th! pace vestcrday On the drnest!? front, so far as I. inflation la eon- i eerned. the conservatives have no 1 more reason to t iht him.

VA-TRO-riOL -In The0!- Day s;;. liy k HAS K Jt.NhlNS IP you follow the stock market, you l have noted that It goes up on the days when a long war seems un avoidable and down on the days when peare rumors prevail In the news. That means that a lot of people are betting that a prolonged war will bring high prices and long profits. yHAT Is probably true. At least, It 1 HAS BEEN TRUE In the past But If It Is true, something else will be true also: There will be a TER RIBLE HEADACHE when the war ends. ft ERE la a simple truth: A Prosperity la permanently In creased only by production that adds to human welfare. (Such as more food for everybody to eat, more clothes for everybody to wear, more shelter to protect everybody from the weather, more conveniences to make life plcasanter for everybody.) War production Is designed prV marily for DESTRUCTION for kill lng people, for making them so mis erable they will be unable or un willing to go on fighting. For that reason, war prosperity CANT be per monent. THIS country, of course, had noth ing to do with starting this war. For that reason, Its people can't be blamed Justly If they try to take ad vantage of the opportunities provided by war In Europe for making tem porary profits HERE. But anyone who fails to understand that war profits are necessarily TEM PORARY profits will be very unwise Indeed. War booms are always followed by headaches. THIS exceedingly conservative (which In these davs means scan dalously old-fashioned) writer hopes that such war stimulation to busi ness as is probably Inevitable in this country If the war continues over a period of years is NOT accompanied by soaring prices. Soaring prices will upset existing balances and throw us Into a vicious circle. It will work this way: As prices rise, the cost of living will rise. As cost of living rises, wages will have to rise also. Steeply rising wages will mean that costs of production will rise, which In Its turn will mean rising prices again. And so on. Out of such a cycle NOBODY BENEFITS, and Its Inevitable end Is a CRASH. IT will be Immensely better In the long run If prices do not rise steeply and profits are taken out ofj increased volume of production. Thati won't leave a headache. L BE OTTAWA.

Kelly iConuuuao (rum Page One ) SECRETARY of Labor Perkins and Secretary of Interior Ickes asked the president about the book at a cabinet meeting: wanted to know If the analysis was that of the admin istration. Perkins did not like the plan for dealing with labor. Mr. Roosevelt was not amused. Secretary of War Wood ring Joined the knockers' club, for he realized Johnson' introduction was dlspl?asing to the president and Johnson is ambitious to fill Wood ring's shoes as secretary. a a CAME a regular press conference following the cabinet meeting. A question was "planted" (old White House device), which enabled the president to stamp as erroneous any Impression that the administration approved the volume and publicly reprimand Johnson, by declaring Johnson's Indorsement does not car ry government panctlon. To rub It In. Mr. Roosevelt observed that 90 percent of such books are written by people who know less than noth ing of the subject. Mr. Roosevelt admitted he had not read the book. The author who contributed acknowledgement thanks the army and navy officers who con tributed their time and knowledge and the research and data they have labored years to perfect. On the surfaoe.

Anyway, Johnson's introduction is regarded as his death warrant In sofar as promotion from assistant secretary to head the war depart ment, and Edison (who co-operated with Johnson In selecting personnel of the War Resources Board from the tycoons of industry during Wood ring's vacation). Is also on the spot These are a few of the reasons which caused Mr. Roosevelt to abolish the War Resources Board instead of mak ing It permanent, as originally planned. What did not help Johnson or Edison Is the assertion that the I.M.P. for nations! defense was not inspired by the new deal, but the foundation was laid shortly after the close of the first world war to prevent repe tition of mistakes made during that conflict. Johnson's faux pas Is worse than that of Woodring in identifying himself socially with Jouett Shouse. who received ?30.00 a year as execu tive director of the American Liberty League, leading "I-Hate-Roosevelt" organization.
