"Night Over Europe," by
Frederick L. Schuman is the
. story of diplomacy just before
and during World War II . . .
It answers such questions as:
. What happened to Czechoslo
vakia? . . . Why did Hitler
abandon hit designs on- the
, Ukraine? . . . What was Stalin's
greatest blunder? ... How and
why did Roosevelt's leadership
fail? ... Who destroyed France?
Schuman is a noted political
scientist and has several author-'
ltative books to his credit.
The Battle For Asia" is by
Edgar Snow . . . The crack
newspaper correspondent who
wrote Red Star Over China,
In -"Which he prophesied that
japan could not win.
Then there's a wonderful eye
witness account of Europe to
day, particularly England and
France, by one of the most fa
mous of European correspond
ents, Quentin Reynolds . . . It's
called "The Wounded Don't
Cry," and rates right now as
the second best seller in the
United States.
And of course you shouldn't
miss "Out of The Night" by
Jan Valtin, which has the whole
country talking.
The author, whose real name
is Krebs, is now trying to keep
out or tne way of the Com
munists ... But according to
-wie - ana -Time" he is ex
pected to be the next author
whose body is found under cir
cumstances indicating suicide
. . General Krivitsky, whose
articles ran in the Saturday
Evening Post a year ago, was
xne last.
You can get these books at
Shaw Stationery, of course.
IF you read Mademoiselle,
you've probably seen the ad
for "Storkettes," the slack
suit to wear if you're "in
fanticapating." . . . Chet
Smith's has them and that's
where I got chance to exam
ine this newest and most ob
acuring outfit I've seen yet.
"Storkettes" has a patented
waistband feature with a 16
inch expansion made possible by
pleats and eight buttons that al
low gradual expansion . . . The
trousers are rather full and the
pleats allow them to get fuller
. And the blouse it the regu
lar new-style loose smock-effect.
In Mademoiselle, the prices
given are $2.60 and $5.00 . . .
But the same things exactly at
Chet Smith's are $1.98 and
$3.98.

F you re beyond the young-
girl age and yearn for one
of those darling bonnets that
are the newest thing in hats,
don't hesitate to try one on
. . . Because they look even bet
ter on the so-called "matron'
age than on younger gals.
I think these new bonnets are
the cutest things out . . . The
crown is supposed to fit behind
your pompadour, if you wear
one . . . Then the brim curves

other day I realized right away
that they d be better-than-usual

the price is a sensation, too
Only $3.95.

VE never been able to un
derstand fully why a man
who smokes a pipe has to
have a- whole bunch of pipes
One pipe smoker told me
it was because a pipe tastes
good for only a couple of days,
and then has to be allowed to
dry out for a few days . . . That
doesn't explain, though, why he
keeps about 12 of them handy,
Pipe smoking under those
conditions could be a pretty ex
pensive indulgence, I should
think . . . Not, of course, if he'd
stick to comparatively inexpen
sive pipes, but lots of men don t
I got to thinking about that

me that the drug store has the

There are all different shapes.
sizes and styles in bowls, stems
and insides . . . Some of them
look like plain pipes, while oth
ers are very distinguished in
appearance . . . And they are
priced at $1.00, $1.25 and $1.50.

T
HE next thing that's due to
go up in price is silverware
. . . Because nickel is the
base of all plated silver
ware, and the government
has cut the supply to silver
ware manufacturers about in
half ... It seems nickel has
lots of uses in the defense pro
gram.
Garcelon's has been warned
to order from the manufacturers
now for possible delivery in
August, because the' silverware
companies already are behind
on their orders and can't catch
up because they can't get the
nickel.
So if you want to fill in on
your present set, you'd better
do it right away.
If you re going to buy a new
set of silver plate, it would be
a good idea to choose your pat
tern now . . . You can have
Garcelon's lay it away while
you pay on the budget plan, if
you want.
Garcelon's has various sets of
silverware at different prices
All pre-defense prices, by
the way . . . There's a lovely

pieces for eight . . . For $49.75,
including the beautiful anti-tarnish

V. S. to Take
Over British
War Contracts
WASHINGTON, March 13 VP)
A high administration official
disclosed today that the army
and reconstruction finance cor
poration were negotiating to
take over between $300,000,000
and $350,000,000 worth of Brit
ish war contracts and factories
in this country.
The official, who declined to
be quoted by name but spoke to
reporters in order, he said, to
clear up some misapprehensions
about what was happening, said
the program "in no way means
that the British will be relieved
of the remainder of their obli
gations in this country."
He explained that the nego
tiations probably would cut
British war obligations, how
ever, between 20 and 25 per
cent, indicating that their total
obligations for weapons and
other war materials were about
$1,500,000,000.

War Writer Eyes American
Aims in World
By DEWITT MACKENZIE
Associated Press Writer
Nazidom, speaking through
the medium of the government
controlled radio, charges that
Uncle Sam is a double-dealer
in the matter of aid for Britain
and "Intent only upon the
speediest acquisition of a maxi
mum number of British posses
sions." That is so far from the fact
that I doubt whether the Ger
mans or their partners in the
triple alliance, Italy and Japan,
really believe Uncle Sam Is such
a rat as to double-cross a friend
and then knife him in the back
for gain. It Isn't even a very
smart piece of propaganda, but
more in the class of thumbing
ones nose to express resent
ment. Still, the allegation is a re
minder that self-analysis is al
ways good. Just what Is our
feeling as we start to pour our
resources out for the Anglo-
allies?
I have talked with people of
all classes in many parts of the
country since the war began,
and have no doubt that America
is Impelled by high and unself
ish motives. If the security of
our country and ways of life is
foremost in our minds, that is
natural. But beyond this my
definite impression is that the
majority of Americans in sup
porting aid for Britain are hon
estly anxious to help preserve
the security and ways of life of
other countries who are victims
of aggression.
Uncle Sam hasn't arrived at
his present pitch of determine
tion, however, without long and
grave thought. It was the same

with the allies, for thnt matter,
and the development has been
intensely interesting to study.
When I was in England In
August of 1938, just before Mu
nich, the public was more than
apathetic about fighting for
Czecho-Siovakia or anybody else
outside the empire. After the
little republic was put on the
sacrificial altar, however, and
the blood began to run, there
was a sharp revulsion of public
opinion.
England realized for the first
time what was in store. Then
was born the spirit of resistance
which we see today.
Public sentiment in the Unit
ed States has undergone a simi
lar change, as I see it. And
the axis itself has been primari
ly responsible for this, for with
each succeeding act of aggres
sion there has been increasing
sentiment in America for de
fensive measures and aid for
the Anglo-allies. There have
