Lower Prices? CONTRARY to news of lower prices that ' we've been reading hopefully (largely about commodities on which retail prices react im mediately to market trends, such as butter and eggs) many articles arriving in stores here now are higher priced than last fall. This refers to merchandise that was purchased last fall (at ' last fall prices) for spring delivery. There generally is a real price decrease though, in that quality is up.

The World Today By J. M. ROBERTS JR. Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst WHEN Secretary Marshall "reported to the senate foreign relations committee that the world "is in a very critical condition" he wasn't breaking what you would call a startling bit of news. But although the' secretary Is a military man and therefore might be expected to think along military lines, there is no reason to believe he was talking about Imminent war. There is sufficient trouble without that, al though It lurks constantly in the background for the future. There are cases when a patient's condition becomes critical merely because a cure for his ills is not found or because he fails to respond to treatment. That is the world's state today. Marshall possibly had China much on his mind, having just come from there. China is on the brink of economic and political collapse. British Case THE situation of Great Britain, internally torn politically, suffering grievous . outward wounds and - struggling economically, would be in itself sufficient grounds for the secretary's statement. And there is, of course, the one continuing crisis which is superimposed on everything else the difficulty of obtaining the co-operation of Soviet Russia for peace. The best informed people have no idea that to precipitate a war in the near believe her intentions are just But what Marshall will be trying to do in Moscow next month is to effect a peace for Europe which will go as far as pos sible toward eliminating the causes of European to provide forceful prevention, considering the possibility that which Russia agrees now may be light of what it will mean to her in some future war if one becomes necessary to prevent the slow death of totalitarian com Alaska Highway Commission Asked . WASHINGTON, Feb. 15 UP) Legislation to etsablish an Alas ka international highway com mission is proposed by Senator Murray (D-Mont.).

Feb. 13 (P) I hate Valentine's Day. I was in srammar school young, happy, in the prime of life and doing well in ariuimeuc. I had conceived for a leiiow traveler in the seventh grade a grand passion that made the Caesar-and-Cleopaira aiiair seem IIIta n Inw.sfrartf. burlesaue. This small -fry aueen had everything. Her hair was liKe a maple tree In autumn. Her nose had the grandeur oi a proltle oi an old Greek coin. Her eyes were those of a kitten. Her voice was soft water falling on old moss. And when she wore bloomers playing basketball I saw with a sigh of happiness there were no knobs on her knees. Knobs why there wasn't a freckle. What a woman! There was only one thing wrong with this romance. It was strictly a one-way courtship. She was three inches taller than I. To me it was no towering dif ference. At that period 1 liked them tall and stately. I didn't mind if I took her to a movie matinee and the street car con ductor made me pay an adult fare for her while letting stumpy me ride for half fare. What is money to a man in love? But this discrepancy in alti tude galled her. She lacked that high disdain of crowd opinion that marks true greatness. It annoyed her when the rude ruffians in the class jeered at us as we walked home together: "Whatcha doing, Boyle, train ing to be a flagpole sitter?" "Why don'tcha get a steplad der and try to kiss her?" Or that ghastly rhyme they in vented, chanted in time with our steps: Sweetie Awful High "O-o-oh me, o-o-oh my, ain't your sweetie awful high!" I didn't care what they yelled. I was drunk with puppy love. But my overgrown Juliet couldn't stand the laughs. She gave me the heave-ho, and switched to the tallest guy in school. He sat in the next row. O agony of Cyrano! I had to pass their love notes back and forth. Mine she never answered. I tried to grow taller by walk ing on tiptoe. I hung by my arms from the gym bars sp long my hands still stretch to my knees. I gained a half-inch. I tried to read up on something I'd heard of called adolescence. But the librarian wouldn't let me get at the books on the too shelf. She Just told me I'd start to grow when my voice changed. And me still singing alto. Finally I decided I'd have to buy her love back the oldest delusion since Eden. I peddled the Kansas City Star on street corners for a month until I had filled up $3.50 over the cost of iving. I plunked it all down for a big cedar box full of chocolates tied with a huge red satin bow. . ' Historic Event When I slapped my present down on the classroom table on Valentine s Day it was the big gest event in the history of the seventh grade. 1 11 bet they re still talking about it. It was so large the teacher had to set it beside the crepe-wrapped card board box into which the other pupils were dropping their crumb - bunny nickel valentines to each other. When the awed teacher hand ed out my valentine a hush fell on my classmates as if they were in a cathedral. For once they knew what real love meant.

I sneaked a glance over and saw sny false Beatrice with a red face tearing up the valen tine I had put into the box. She didn't know she was tearing me to pieces, too. When I dared look up 'again, class was over and my lost love and her tall boy friend were walking out eating my candy. As they reached the door she turned and made a face at me like a witch in Macbeth. Yes, and she stuck out her tongue. Through all these years I re member only that It looked heart-shaped. I sat all alone at my desk. My teacher, that wonderful wo man came over and whispered: "Don't mind too much, Harold. She will never forget your present." Well, neither have I. I hope she grew so tall she keeps bump ing her head on doorways the rest of her life. And, now you know why I hate Valentine's Day.
