We had luncheon with one of them a week ago, and while she
granted the true, inner character of the Japanese was difficult to
understand, and tnelr apparent
able: there was no doubt whatever of the overwhelming desire of
the Japanese people to keep out of war, not only today and tomor
row but for ALL time.
As the guest of the day remarked:
"If the people of the United States had suffered such a
defeat as Japan suffered, and also been victims of the first
atomic bomb attack, we doubt if they would feel differently
than do the people of Japan. I don't attribute their passion
for peace to any particular LOVE of peace per se, or absence
of an aggressive nationalism, but solely to their recent ex
perience, with wer. A child who has been severely burned
playing with fire no longer is tempted to play with it. The
people of Japan played with war and look at them now. Their
devotion to peace Is as natural and simple as that."
As far as that goes this department Is convinced that no na
tion anywhere including Russia, really wants war anymore than
any sane nation WANTS a cholera epidemic. Russia stands apart
from other nations in this direction onlv because what the Dconle
of that country want, has no effect, or practically none, upon
what its government decides to do.
Sneaking of Mrs. Theodore

of the other "Park avenue biddies." as Mrs. T. R. once called
herself and them. In fact, if this Lawyer Palmer "show off" con
tinues his long-winded and pointless cross-examinations of FBI
agents much longer the courtroom will be vacant except for our
old friend "Mac. Mac's batting average for attendance as far as
the communist and Hiss trials are concerned was 1,000, and pro
mises to be the same for this Gubitchev performance.
"Mac" is an example of how nature can't stand persistence
any more than it can a vacuum.
"Mac" at one time was regarded as a plain "nut," one of the
witch-hunting brigade, obsessed with the Idea that any citizen not
a charter member of the Union League club was either a bona-fide
member of the communist party or a fellow-traveler. He saw at
least one "Red" under every bed and having an independent in
come he decided to devote all his time to fighting the communist
menace.
We believe he launched his personal and private crusade about
15 years ago when a certain Dr. William A. Wirt of Gary, Ind., de
clared Franklin D. Roosevelt was only the Kerensky in the Amer
ican revolution and Rex Tugwell a potential Stalin. the New
Deal merely a smoke-screen to hide a well organized plot to over
throw the government of the United States. He (Mac) did not get
much further than did the school superintendent of Gary, Ind., but
unlike the "doctor" he refused to retire and die of a broken heart.
He stayed In there pitching, and that is what he is doing today,
never misses a session, constantly takes notes in a large notebook,
Just why no one including "Mac" seems to know, and never
ceases to bo in a slate of suppressed excitement and continuous in
dignation, regarding Soviet Russia and all Its works.
Yes, when all other spectators at this Gubitchev-Coplon "bur
lesque" have departed as a result of sheer boredom, if they do,
there is no doubt "Mac" will remain at his post alone, grim, meti
culously attentive, carefully taking notes, whispering in a con
spiratorial manner during intermissions to any faithful colleagues
he can find and viewing with suspicion all those who doubt Judith
Coplon is another "Tokyo" Rose or worse and Valentin Gubit
chev has at least one atomic bomb in his hip-pocket.
But no longer is "Mac" regarded as a "nut," plain or other
wise. No longer do the United States marshals and federal court
"cops" treat him as a public nuisance. "Mac" has top-drawer rat
ing now. When he taps an FBI agent on the shoulder there is no
orush-orr today but tBl patiently listens, and comments with
proper deference and respect.
So everything conies to him who waits if he only waits LONG
enough! There were the communist convictions, then Hiss, now
Coplon and Gubitchev and last, but far from least, the incredible
and shocking Fuchs affair. A decade and a half ago "Mac" was
merely SEEING things, but today all or practically all, regard
him as a man of vision, idealism and substance.
And does this please "Mac?"
Does a pound of hamburger please a tramp bulldog?
There seems to be no unanimity of opinion regarding the
future of Ingrld Bergman as a movie star. Some predict her un
usual romance with her "director" will boost box-office receipts to
the top of the Washington monument, others that her career is
practically over, because the moral indignation of the "Bible belt"
will get her in the end. We have an idea the truth as usual finally
will land somewhere in between.
"Stromboll" opens tomorrow here on Broadway, so some line
on the final outcome may be obtained. New York, however, is not
America even though most native New Yorkers think it is.
Our own belief is the ultimate success of "Slromholi' here on
Broadway will depend not so much upon the moral factors in the
rase as the film's real dramatic and entertainment values. New
Yorkers, as a whole, are pretty discriminating when it comes to
their theatrical fare, silver screen or stage. They are not inclined
to delve into ethical values very
upon QUALITY, and while the front page publicity is worth a lot
to the producers of this Italian film, unless "Stromboli" has genu
ine dramatic values aside from the
its star it will not last long.
While on the subiect of films
ably elsewhere are few and far between. Three British produc
tions. "Quartet," "Fallen Idol" and "Tight Little Isle" are the only
ones we could enthuse about, all of them adult, artistic, convinc
ing, and the last one genuine comedy. We are getting more and
more skeptical of the newspaper reviews. Two new films, "Man
on the Eifel Tower" and "The Third Man" were highly praised by
the local press, but we could see no special merit in either. They
were not bad, but neither were they good too much of the dated
melodramatic Hollywood "corn" in each! R.W.R.
In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
A week or so back, Secretary
of Agriculture Brannan asked
senators what should be done
with some 50 million bushels of
potatoes which taxpayers have
already paid for under the pres
ent price support program.
He later announced that a con
siderable part of these potatoes
will probably be dyed blue TO
IfcKP THEM OFF THE MAR
KET FOR HUMAN CONSUMP
TION and resold to farmers for
livestock feed or use as fertiliz
er. He explained that it might
cost 15 million dollars Just to
MOVE the spud to places where
they could be given away to hun
gry people or used for industrial
purposes such as making alcohol.
A later Washington dispatch
says: "Secretary Brannan OP
POSES the present farm pro
gram, under which the surplus
potatoes accumulated." That sug
gests that his proposal to spend
SI3.U0U.U00 just to give the po
tatoes away l designed as
backfire against the present farm
program, which he doesn't like

Australia To Keep
Relations With Russ
Canberra, Australia, Feb. 13
iU.R) Informed sources said to
day that Australia will maintain
diplomatic relations with Rus-'

s'cnior cabinet members.
Cabinet officials were said to
have discussed the matter sever
al times since A. S. Watt, am
bassador to Moscow, returned for
consulation.
After the December elections,
several new cabinet ministers
said maintenance of relations
with Russia was "futile."
Informants said that since For
eign Minister Percy Spender fav
ored continuing relations when
he spoke at the Colombo con
ference last month, a majority
of the cabinet members had de
cided to support him.

A Nichols' Worth of
Comment On
By HARMAN
United Press
Washington, Feb. 15 (U!)
I doubt if I can ever lwok a
hathtuh in the face again.
I have been
guilty of
perpetuating a
newspaper
hoax the
one about the
introduction of
the tub into
the American
home. It's all
the fault of the
library of con
gress. Back in early
December a
woman in
Council Bluffs,
stuck in a tub
Herman Nichols
la., got herseif
and stayed there for 60 hours.
It seems she had taken over
management of a home owned
by a midget friend and decided
to take a bath in the midget tub.
That sent me to the library to
find out about tubs.
In one of the volumes I found
a yarn about the "first tub ever
installed in America one used
by an Adam Thompson in Cin
cinnati." It (the tub) was en
cased in mahogany, lined with
metal. It was seven feet long
and four feet wide and weighed
1.750 pounds.
Story Made Up
It seems that the story was
nut out as fiction bv H. L. Men-
chen. Or mostly fiction. He lat
er let it out that Adam Thomp
son was an "impostor." The
writer made the whole thing up.
Anyhow, I got a sharp letter
from George N. Lamb, secretary
of the Mahogany Association,
Inc.. which has been worrying
about the hoax ever since Men-
chin wrote it in the New York
Evening Mail on Dec. 28, 1917.
"Worst part of it is," says
Lamb, "Every time anybody
tries to bat down the hoax they
have to repeat the story. That
makes it twice as bad."
It seems that the whole Men
chen story turned back history
to 1842 when this man "Thomp
son," a Cincinnati cotton plan
ter, imported a tub and pitched
a big party to show it off. First,
the story goes and has been
going ever since he took a hot
bath in the morning and a cold
bath in the afternoon. Then he
invited a flock of big shots to
look over the new gimmick. A
few of 'em shed their fine
clothes and took on a few suds.
Apparently it wasn't so.

Against Stromboli Ban:
To the Editor: I, as have mil
lions of other readers, have been
following the reports and no
toriety which are being given
to the "Bcrgman-Rossellini" in
cident, and to the banning in var
ious cities of the picture, Strom
boli. Because I believe there is a
much higher "court of judg
ment" than the press, or the
public, I can neither condemn
nor uphold the actions of any
human being.
However, I do feel it is the
God-given right and the great
privilege, of the people of this
country, especially, to decide for
themselves what they should
read, how they should worship,
and the standards by which they
live, including the motion pic
lures that are fit for them to
sec.
"Stromboli" has been passed
by legal board of censors, as far
as morality in the picture itself.
And why any small group of
people should decide what is fit
for our morals and principals is
a direct "slap" to adult judg
ment and intelligence.
Can we, the people, who pat
ronize a theatre not decide if
any picture Is proper or not for
ourselves or for our children?

feature Writer
ed that Benjamin Franklin was
this country s pioneer in syste
matic bathing.
He shocked the folks around
him by taking "two baths a
week," according to books on
file with the plumbing and heat
ing industries bureau in Chicago.
As early as 1770, Franklin
fetched to America a thing that
was described as a "bathing
slipper."
You would sit on the end of
the slipper that looked like the
"heel" and put your feet in the
part that resembled a toe.
Under the heel part was a
place for a small fire, which was
supposed to keep the tub warm.
Water was poured in by the
bucketsful and later was lugged
into the back yard and dumped.
It must have taken a lot of
manpower to perform the task.
Invented Another Tub
After that, Franklin is sup
posed to have invented a less
cumbersome tub resembling an
oversized coal shuttle.
it was a copy of some of the
old tubs Franklin had seen
while abroad and gave rise to
many of the legends of how a
man got his back washed; wheth
er he hired small boys to dump
pitchers of suds on him or
whpthpr hie wife did the chore.
Anyhow, let this be the end j
of the Menchen hoax aDout
