There is considerable Ailied anxiety. lest the trial procedure of the Nazi war criminnls at Nuernberg be not up to legal snuff and painfully correct. The defendants themselves at the height of their aboriginal cusped ness had no squeamishness about such things.

Boston, Mass., Nov. 25 You can get some things in Boston you can get nowhere else in the United States to-wit: Prompt laundry service. Cultured taxi drivers. British stout and ale. Genuine French bread and pastry. Old World atmosphere. Also yesterday in front of the old "Vic" we saw a Stanley Steamer with steam up and a chauffeur in royal purple uniiorm on the box! We believe the Stanley Steamer dates back far before World War I. The calling off of red points on meat was pretty well timed. The Saturday after Thanksgiving many people are still eating cold turkey. At any rate we tripped into Faneuel Market to see the excitement and while there was considerable action, the market boss claimed it was the dullest Saturday in many months. At that we saw young and old hurrying away with hams and bacon, steaks and roast beef, with something the look of Joy and appre hension noticed years ago. Just after the family bootlegger had called, and "Popskl" was hurrying home with the month's supplies. t 0 When Greek meets Greek the result is a restaurant, but when Irish meets Irish the result is a fight. The Irish of Holy Cross and the Irish of Boston College are meeting at Fenway Park this (Sun day) afternoon in their annual football match and the rooters are already gathering. It probably won t be much of a contest as Holy Cross has one of the best football teams in the East while Boston College is far down the list. But it will be a fight, with the spectators probably taking part before It is over. Just returned from a walk up the street and never saw so many souvenir vendors and pennant salesmen, the football badges and the pennants being a little larger than usual, the vendors voices a little louder, the under graduates considerably more excited than you find at' Cambridge or New Havenl Wrong again! It was a very tame performance, Holy Cross won 41 to 0. There was no excitement either on the field or in the stands, the only interesting feature being boos from a group of Boston College girls and boys for a member of their own team when he was caught about 10 yards back of the line and fumbled the ball. He stinks! one of the pretty girls shouted, slapping the derby hat of her escort with her pennant. Governor Tobln and a group of influential Bostonians landed in London yesterday by plane, hopping off from here the day be fore. How times have changed since Lindbergh! then flvlne across the Atlantic was a seven-day wonder, now its routine not nearly as exciting as flying across the English channel was two or three decades ago. As before stated Boston wants to get the UNO headauarters as do a dozen or more other American cities. We will say this for Boston, the site they have picked out on the banks of the Charles Is a beautiful one, but the Boston climate, can't say much for that at this time of year. Bad news! MHS beaten out by Grant 7-6, although Medford made more first downs and gained more yardage. Well, that's TERRIBLY disappointing to all members of the False Friends club. Can't win all the time, and to be beaten by only one point by a team like Grant is no disgrace. Moreover, that is football it is one of the most uncertain sports in the world. Imagine Cali fornia beating UCLA and wasn't it OSC that toppled over Wash ington? Only a few geniuses like the manager of the First National bank can always dope out football results! 0 a 0 a a We note Senator Morse wants the UNO Participation Act amended so as to make appeals to the World Court In all inter national disputes threatening international peace, COMPULSORY. Entirely right, as usual! Imagine what our civil and criminal would do if parties to a dlsputo could leave the decision up to the courts if they wished to, or If they preferred fight it out or just do nothing at all. No guilty party, no party not certain of benefitting by court action, would go to the court at all. Courts would then have little to do but draw their pay and twiddle their thumbs. Which reminds us don't know just-why, that we had lunch up at the Kenmore Hotel the other day, a few steps up Common wealth Avenue and a group of .college football coachesi Including Coach Harlow of Harvard and Coach Little of Columbia hsd a table nearby. A new waitress served them and when she spied Coach Harlow marking the table cloth with his football diagrams an old Ivy League habit, she swept down on him witn the startling reprimand: "Would you do that in your own home misten Coach Harlow, really very much of a gentleman as well as a scholar, was so taken aback he could only murmur "sorry." Later when he had regained his poise he declared the incident reminded him of the time Coach Little of Columbia was so in trigued by some of his (Harlow's) table cloth "doodling" that when the luncheon was over this was in New York, however, he took the table Cloth home with him and told the management to send the C.A.A. the bill!

MHMMInill In her book "Marriages Are Mudo At Home" Clarlta De Forcevllle soys: "No man is born a husband. The best husbands are made at home. Candidly, I mean 'trained' but let us keep it a dark secret. Let me add quickly that wives need to be trained as well." We are glad to be able to record the admission of ho necessity of wife training by such a distinguished feminine authority. . As always, our horses and women department is at the service of any subscriber who may feci the need of a few hints In tho matter of training a wife. Don't hesitate to take advantage of this, gentlemen. All communi cations considered strictly con fidential. Incidentally, the recent research of our experts has un covered some excellent new ad vice on the training of red-haired wives. Baby Shoes In 1004 when Jimmy Brltt was In his heyday as a light weight boxer, the British cham pion, Jabez White, was matched to fight him in San Francisco. White, a sentimental fellow, brought the shoes of his baby along for good luck. He tied them to tho ropes In his cor ner. For 19 rounds the battle between Britt and White was even and terrific. Eddie Graney, the referee, had about decided to call it a draw. During the loth round somebody stole White's baby shoes from his cor ner. The British battler was wild. Instead of resting between rounds he ran around looking for the shoes and loudly de manding they be found. Going out for the 20th round the gal lant Britisher was still thinking of the lost baby shoes and kept looking around to see if they had been found. In one of these lapses Britt knocked him out. My Informant intimates some of Brltts followers stole the baby shoes in order to discon cert the British fighter. He adds: "It was a dirty trick. We old San Franciscans will always have a soft spot In our hearts for Jabez White, a great fighter, a perfect gentleman and a lov ing father." Aiklng Queries from clients. Q. My husband loves dogs as much as you do. Need I say more? Could you name some books on dogs that might Interest him? A. "How To Breed Dogs" by Leon F. Whlttney. "How to Train Dogs" by H. R. East. "The Sketch Book of Dogs" by Felice Worden. "Nutrition of the Dog" by dive McKay. "Gun Dogs Afield' by Horace Lytle. Objection In a dispatch I note Carole Landis referred to as "The bux om screen star." To the use of buxom in connection with Miss Ijtndis I strongly object. Web ster defines buxom as "plump and comely." Carole is comely, but not plump. At least she wasn't the last time 1 saw her. I hope she hasn't taken-on weight. It always saddens me to see plumpness creeping over an erstwhile streamlined young woman. Over Forty Women in their twenties pre fer men in their forties as com panions and husbands. That is what is frequently claimed. In connection with this it is inter esting to note the following film actors all 40 years of age or older ' continue to ' be listed among the major Hollywood heart throbs: Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable, Charles Boyer, Walter Pidgeon, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby and Spencer Tracy. "The smartest suits for men this year will be the gray and blue ones." So states an expert on the subject of fashions for men. If that claim is correct I am right in style. I have Just acquired an elegant gray flan nel suit. I already have a couple of blue ones. This same expert claims white shirts are what the well-dressed man should wear. I can't go along with him on that. I like light blue shirts. Prediction Women who know their pol itics say there may be a woman president of the United States in 1964. Several stargazers have predicted a woman president by 1932. I hope to live to see a female president. I am anxious to see how her husband, the first gentleman, will conduct himself.

V.CKSVA-T&0-HOL News Behind The News By Paul Mallon m rarSSlWtieSW-la1 4 Paul Alann Washington. Nov. 30 What Pat Hurley said was true. For many months evidence has '. -an leaKing irom the state de partment sug gest i n g the permanent un der 1 y i n g clique was un sympa t h e t ic with top pol icy, and un dermln i n g it in subtle little ways. Yet there was nothing suf ficiently provable to warrant printing. The men within the depart ment who have noticed the con dition have been so frightened they dared not speak, even privately, outside of the depart ment. Because of the stands they have taken within the depart ment they knew they were sus pect to the reigning group, and occasionally thought they were being followed or their tele phone conversions tapped. Even business men dealing there have noticed the condition, compared notes about" it among themselves, and wondered its extent. But until the retiring ambassador to China spoke out with direct charges, the matter never reoched the public eye. a a a CTATE Secretary Byrnes, my informants say, does not know the facts, nor did his pre decessor, Mr. Stettlnius. Byrnes promised a departmental reor ganization and brought in a few top men, but this was as far as his reorganization went. The clique was strengthened under Stettinlus, who function ed largely as a personal repre sentative of the president, allow ing the department to run it self, and today more men are being taken into the clique than are leaving it. The various bureaucratic holdovers of the Roosevelt regime, losing their war jobs in other departments, have been seeking couches in state. It is a peculiar condition and hos never been accurately de fined, not even by Mr. Hurley In his restricted charges. The men of the clique do not hold meetings and agree to under mine this or that. They are merely of one mind on some basic Ideas. a a a POR one thing, they are un- sympathetic with American foreign policy today. For an other, they agree in their dis trust of anyone who would ques tion Russia in the slightest upon any subject. They are not com munists but their minds are guided by the communist grooves of thought. Objectionable things are to them "fascistic." Hence Chiang Kai-Shek is a fascist; Russia, a democracy. But they branch off from communist grooves to others strangely enough.' The. British have the best diplomacy, they think; Hence, Britain likewise ' can do no wrong. They are known also as "the striped trousers set," af fecting the uniform of the Downing street diplomats be yond necessities. To define what specific un dermlnging they do is difficult. a a a HURLEY had two men in the far eastern division in mind in his charges. These two he apparently caught telling the Chinese to pay no attention to him, and spreading around at cocktail parties the notion that the American foreign policy was temporary,, that it would not back Chungking in postwar. Be yond this, apparently, he had no convincing evidence. His pur pose in reversing himself abruptly and deciding to quit with a challenging public state ment was to force a congres sional investigation. A thorough one no doubt would force a re organization, which not even a secretary of state has been able to effect in his own department. ... j BEFORE Byrnes and Stettin- ius, Mr. Hull knew very well what was going on. He ' could read in the papers daily the planted news that leaked from his department against him. And he thought Sumner Welles, his assistant, was doing it. But Welles was only the tem porary outlet for the clique within. Not even Hull could do much. Mr. Byrnes has Indicated his intention to smile away the mat-i ter, and there is danger that 1 the democratic administration ! will treat it politically. Hurley i is a republican, and his efforts ; for a congresisonal inquiry may j be shunted off as a political at If the inquiry fails to develop, : the Americanization of the state department may await a future generation. There is talk that Byrnes will quietly start house- cleaning to forestall an inquiry, but he must necessarily use. a whisk broom where DDT is call ed for. Unless something is done, Mr. Byrnes will find it increasingly difficult to effectuate his for eign policy, which is sufficiently popular with the county to have passed beyond public or congres sional criticism, except from this one clique, and the news papers and magazines of like mind. Incidentally, Gen. Marshall, who was chosen by President Truman in Hurley's place, kept himself conspicuously above this kind of political diplomacy during the war. His aloof atti tude was just what the Chinese situation called for. Flight o Time Medtord and Jackson Co. His tory from tha files of the Mail Tribune 10. 20 and 34 years aoo.
