PAGE ELEVEN In Th e : Day's i ?Newis , He Is the diplomat who aim ed (or Japan the three-power axis alliance in Berlin a year ago when he was ambassador to Germany. Today s dispatches add that he is not. however, among the most ardent supporters of the axis pact. He is married to an American woman. Pupils Recommended Books Br Frank Jenkins XJEW in today's (Wednesday's) ' news: Canadian Navy Minister An gus MacDonald says In Toronto that nazl suDmarines are oper ating "off the coast of New- loundland within sight of the shore. IN Washington "informed sources" (we're 'learning that trick too, you see) assert that Germany Intends to make the waters west of Iceland a major theater in the battle of the At lantic and fight for a decision there with "wolf pack" U-boat tactics. Navy Secretary Knox says in Jvashington thdt new submarine tactics revolve chiefly around hunting in packs. He adds that submarines are , also hunting 'on the surface at " night, making more necessary the arming of merchant ships. RECALL here that GERMAN statistics just issued Indicate that destruction of allied ship ping in October, the first month in which the American navy has been actively co-operating in protection of Britain-bound cargoes, fell SHARPLY under the record for September. American navy protection (so far) extends only to Iceland. If what we hear today is true, German submarines are moving into that area. So look for more develop ments. UIS coming is interesting chiefly as indicating Jap an's desire to TALK SOME MORE before starting to shoot THERE are indications In the Japanese press today that what he will want to talk about will include stopping American aid to China and putting an end to encirclement of Japan. Significant, perhaps, is an nouncement by the Dutch East Indies today that exports of oil and gasoline to Portugese col onies in the Pacific are being stopped for fear they might fall into Japanese hands. JWEW also today: The Japanese government announces it is sending Saburo Kurusu, former ambassador to Germany, to Washington by trans-Pacific Clipper to attempt to reach an accord with the United States "in view of the very serious situation prevail ing." THE British Broadcasting cor- poration (government-owned and therefore subject to suspic ion as propaganda) tells today of "angry Finnish prowds de nouncing Germany." It adds that 21 persons have been ar rested in Helsinki as a result of such demonstrations. Baron Mannerheim, Finnish commander, described as Hit ler's friend and virtual ruler of Finland, is said to have rejected the American warning to make peace with Russia. Finland probably CAN'T make peace, because Germany won't let her. f fN the home front: A union JURISDICTIONAL dispute forces shutdown of work on gates at a navy dock in San Diego. A navy spokes man says AFL bollermakers and iron workers can't agree on which shall install the gates and adds that the navy department at Washington will be asked to decide which union shall have the work. t OUPPOSE Hitler were pound '-' lng at our gates, as he Is at Russia's. Would he WAIT while the dispute was being settled? If he would, we have nothing to fear. Dm HU meusn nn Ma. In connection with National Book Week, pupils of the Junior high school have read and recommended to others the following volumes: Buffalo BUI and the Overland Trail" By Sabia Because it gives you a vivid description of the Journey across the plains and also a biography of Bill Cody, commonly known aa Buffalo Bill, I recommend "Buffalo Bill and the Overland Trail" by Sabln to all adventure loving readers. Vera Smith. "Call It Courage" By Armstrong Sparry I recommend "Call It Courn age" by Armstrong s perry to any one that likes tales of cour age and adventure. It is the Newberry prize book for this year, too. It is the story of a little boy, who Is looked down upon by all the islanders because of his fear of the sea. Mafatu and his dog leave the island for another one, they know not just where. When they reach the island Mafatu finds out it is an island where the dread eaters of man come to make their horrible sacrifices. When Mafatu finally escapes and goes back to his island he has overcome his fear of the sea and is a hero. Joan McDuffee. "Nancy Drew" By Carolina Kaane I recommend the books of Caroline Keene, author of the Nancy Drew mystery books to any mystery loving person. Nancy Drew is the daughter of Carson Drew, famous crim inal lawyer, Nancy, like her father, is famous for mystery solving and she succeeds in solv ing every mystery she gets mixed up in. "Nancy Drew" is a series of girls' books but I think boys would enjoy them, too. Marga ret Bismark. "The Story of Clara Barton of tha Rad Cross" By Jeannatta Nolan I recommend the "Story of Clara Barton of the Red Cross", It tells her life story and how she began the American Red Cross. Her adventures and hard ships, as a child, a teacher, an assistant In the Patent Office, Washington, D. C, and nurse are all told in the vivid writing of Jeannette Nolan, the author of this book. I think that girls and adults would enjoy this book very much. Judy Taka-hira. Tha Peat of tha Cralgla House" By Hildagarda Hawthorne I recommend the book 'The Poet of the Cralgie House", by Hildegarde Hawthorne. It is filled with vivid descriptions of theVife of Longfellow led while in his childhood and when he was older, and of many sad things and his wife's tragic death. It is also a story that tells of Longfellow's childhood desire to become a poet. He did become one of America's most renouned poets and was honored in the Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey in England. Pat Albern. Portland's Payrolls Score Heavy Advance Portland, Nov. 7.

E E TO L "We may all be thankful that the local dealers In building materials can secure a priority rating and will continue to meet the home-bulldlng needs of our community," says an article' In the current periodical of the Lumber Merchants Association of Northern California. The ar ticle was prompted by the gov ernment's rescinding of its pre viously announced policy of halting all but strictly defense building. Asserting that It seemed a wise policy to continue home building, the article cites three reasons why there should, be no stoppage now: serious un employment would result as the building Industry in the United States is second only to agri culture; home building requires an insignificant amount of criti cal defense materials; and noth ing is to be gained in closing the building industry to ac cumulate the small amount of critical materials it uses for de fense work at a much later date. Because of the small amount of critical materials it uses, the article says, "it would ' seem that home building can continue without Injury to the defense' program." It was stated also that substitutes can further re duce the amount of critical materials going into home construction. The belief in vampires, which may be traced back as far as the 11th century, is still widely current among the Slavic people. Noted Episcopal Leader Succumbs Milton, Mass.. Nov. 7. (Jt) The Rt. Rev.
