TJAS the millenium arrived?
AA Is the lamb ready to lie
down beside the libn?
Is the world preparing to beat
its swords into plowshares?
TM AFRAID not.
What we must remember,
if all this conflicting news is to
make any sense to us at all, is
that this Middle East problem is
still in the NEGOTIATING
stage. Both sides are trying to
una out wnere they are. Each is
seeking all the advantages it can
get.
From time to time, both sides
run bluffs in an effort to find
out how far it is safe to go in' a
certain direction. Each side
wants to know how much the
other side will stand for.
ALL this is a normal and nat
ural nart nf the nmroxs if
negotiation. ;
As to what will come of it all,
we can only wait and see.

Arthur J. When I was in the
Army overseas three years ago,
I married a European girl. We
were very much in love and at
that time we couldn't see that
anything could be an obstacle
to our being happy together, al
though both our families warned
us that differences in our back
ground could make trouble for
us.

Well, it's turned out the way
they predicted. Betty just
doesn t like American life. She
doesn't like my friends or the
way we live. A hundred times
a day she says, "Oh, we do
things better over there."
Kow we have a year-old baby
and Betty wants to go back
home. I just couldn't live any

son to be an American. 1 cer
tainly don't want a divorce. It
would mean I d never even see
my child. But I can't go on with
this constant nagging and cnti

Betty J. Before we were
married Arthur had lots of criti

ed me I wouldn't like this and
that thing about it. So it turned
out but now if I say anything.
he bursts into a fit of temper
and is ready to turn me in for
being a traitor or a spy or some
thing.
As a matter of fact, on the
whole, I think America is won
derful, but it happens that we
could live much better in my
country. My father has a fine
business there and would take
Arthur in. We could be well off
there, whereas here we just
make ends meet.
There are other factors too
I miss my family terribly. Ar

very coolly. They were against
our marriage and take his atti

if I ever say a word that is criti
cal or mention something I loved
back home. It makes me so lone

is against me.

Testifying before a house ag

growers of Arizona extra-long
staple cotton, asked for a law to ; I

if congress doesn't act to pre-1
vent it, supports for extra-long
staple cotton may be pushed up
to 90 per cent of parity this year 1

He told the subcommittee that j

THEIR SALES HIGH.
WHY this startling proposal?
It's like ihie-
These Arizona growers of ex
tra-long staple cotton have been
keeping their eyes open. This is
what they have been seeing:
lor years their beautifully cul
tivated fields, irrigated with
water pumped out of the under
ground reservoirs that may have
taken thousands of years to fill
up have been producing some of
the finest cotton in the world.
This cotton OUGHT to go im
mediately into the channels of
trade for cotton is a crop and
the business of crops is to be
consumed.
Instead it has been going into
storage warenouses and some
body else the Egyptians, among
others has been SELLING THE

The Council! Arthur evidently
gave his bride very poor prepa
ration for life in the United
States. His criticisms made be
fore they were married must
have frightened her out of her
wits about life in a new coun
try. He could so easily have got
ten her to look forward to the
many good things she would
find here.
It is very likely that Arthur
had misgivings about his mar
riage in the face of his family's
objections and expressed this in
his uneasy criticism of the life
Betty would have. If Betty had
been a little shrewder, she
would have realized this and
prepared herself to love every
thing about her new country.
But it is probable, too, that Betty
had similar fears about marry
ing against her family's warning
and going so far from home.
These two young persons are
now parents themselves and
want to hold their home togeth
er. Betty should recognize that
she agreed before marriage to
go to live in her husband's native
country. She has no right to
back out of the agreement or
to make her husband's and
child's life miserable by remain
ing here grudgingly.
Fortunately anybody can find
enoueh priori thinpc ahont Ameri
can life to love it if he or she
chooses to. Betty should realize
that everyone here cannot pos- j
sibly be "'against her since
everyone here traces back to
a foreign origin and no country
is more open to variety in
thoughts and ways of living.
Both Arthur and Betty should
take a fresh look at American
life and perhaps Betty's lone
liness can be appeased by an oc
casional trip home.
