Doll and Wardrobe
IPDitpirairiri
New spring clothes will be available in west coast stores be
fore Christmas., according to a release from San Francisco, where
Market Week ended November 13. All of which leaves Potpourri
very confused. Winter weather has hardly begun, Thanksgiving
isn't until next week and Christmas is more than a month away.
What will the poor merchants do now hang the Easter bonnets
on the Christmas trees in their windows?
Our one woman campaign against the "sack look" suffered a
serious blow in S.F., too. According to the release the sack dress
dominated the early spring showings, which was contrary to the
news from Los Angeles the week before.
Walter Reuther, president of the United Automobile Workers
i of America and one of the most important labor leaders of the
j United States, delivered one of the most impressive speeches made
during the recent UNESCO conference in San Francisco, if one
can judge by the coverage in the Bay city papers. Writers for the
SF papers reported his long speech on Asian-Indian-American re
lations in great detail and commented that the 1500 delegates re
ceived it with enthusiasm.
Mr. Reuther charged that this country's foreign policy toward
Asians is "antiquated" and said that the present crisis is not eco
nomic or political or military in character, but moral. He said that
the struggle against Communism is not a matter of geography, but
for the "hearts and minds'of people and that you cannot win that
struggle with a bigger H-bomb or a longer range guided missile.
The U.S. and the free world still are trying to achieve "su
premacy" he declared, when the real struggle is for "survival,"
and added that we failed to comprehend "the new dimensions of
war and the new promise of peace."
Reuther said it was all to the good for the U.S. and the free
world to remain strong militarily to cope with aggression but "we
need to understasd that military power is but the negative aspect
of a dynamic foreign policy, that it can only buy time and the
opportunity, and that the decisive thing is what do you do with
the opportunity how do you use the time that you are able to
buy with military power."
"We believe (in the labor movement) that we must find a way
to take the offensive on the economic and social fronts in the
practical, down-to-earth, positive struggle against poverty, against
hunger, against human desperation, because it is in these areas, in
the greater economic and social cesspools of the world in which
Communism is perfecting the techniques by which it forges pov
erty into power."
Mr. Reuther believes Asia must have top priority in the free
world's plans because of its "hundreds of millions of hungry and
desperate peoples" on the march to "catch up with the 20th cen
tury." He outlined a program for action in Asia and suggested that
we de-emhpasize the military aspects of our foreign policy towards
Asia because "economic and social problems" come first.
The labor leader also said that America needs to do more at
home about the "serious moral gap between American democra
cy's noble promises and its ugly practices in the field of civil
rights" and pointed out that even in the smallest villages of Asia
and Africa "they know about Montgomery, Ala., and Little Rock,
Ark."
Speaking about aid to foreign countries, Mr. Reuther said we
should not insist on "rigid conformity" but must "achieve unity in
diversity within the broad framework of the basic values that we
respect as free people." He urged Americans not to insist that "you
are either with us or against us" and reminded his audience that
the United States, as a new nation, withdrew to a position of
greater isolation than the so-called unaligned nations of Asia have
now.
He chided Americans for forgetting what the "Good Book"
says about it being more noble to give than, to receive and said
"there is still too much of this attitude that for every ton of aid
there ought to be shipped back a ton of gratitude all wrapped up
in cellophane with ribbon on it."
The labor leader said the U.S. should "de-emphasize our uni
lateral approach to these problems and begin to do more for the
United Nations."
Mrs. Lorraine Blair, Chicago femme who heads the only all
woman investment house in America, says that from 14 to 40 a
woman needs good looks, from 40 to 60, personality and charm,
and after 60 cash. O.S.
