Charles De Gaulle today complained that the French are not receiving enough arms for a large war effort. In the first press conference since | he met the reporters in Washington | last July, he commented “the gov- | ernment, like everyone else, is_satis- | fied that it is now called by its right name.” This was his only reference to Allied recognition. He remarked that Allied supply difficulties and the destruction of ports might explain the lack of French arms “to some degree.” [ PR T DRIVER’S PARADISE LONDON—Great Britain's future as a nation for automobilists is be- ing drawn up by the country’s three great auto clubs. They have all cities and ports, under-river tunnels, elevated roads, pedestrian subways beneath crossings and non-skid surfaces among postwar improvements, says the London Daily Mail, |Gso's Ip. —|in Douglas.

Place of the party—the Nata- {torium, located in Douglas, not far from the Treadwell Beach. Yes, we repeat—the Treadwell Beach. |All you servicemen will certainly remember the familiar beach where | on a dozen different occasions dur- ing the past three weeks we did NOT have the USO corn roast,| that much-planned festivity that remains still, as of this moment, casional atmospheric lapses which have marred the otherwise flawless October weather! Or have you for- gotten? Anyway, it's practically on the site of that non-existent corn roast and in a building with a name that seems appropriate only for a swimming pool—there’s where we are giving Saturday night's party, RAIN OR SHINE. Come cloudburst or blizzard outside on Treadwell Beach, inside we guar- antee you the enjoyment of a gala party in warm, dry comfort, with music hot to just the right degree and with only the punch being appropriately wet. FRESH-FRIED DOUGHNUTS It’s been some years since we personally have tasted any hot doughnuts, fresh-fried, right off the stove, fragrant with their own in- imitable fragrance. So maybe we're mistaken in our recollection that they are extra- specially wonder- ful and that they possess an ap- peal to the male appetite, young or old, that is very strong and very nearly universal. Then again, maybe we're not mistaken. In any event, we won't have to wait long to find out. This coming Sunday afternoon, all our servicemen are to be the guests of two very thoughtful friends of the USO who are giving a party in the clubhouse.

(About all we've able to do is to ponder on that “log cabin” item. Following Henry Ford's lead, do the girls COLLECT log cabins where Lin- coln was born, etc? Or do they just like to LOOK at all log cabins? Or do they DRAW PIC- TURES of 'em? We'll have to re- member to ask the girls sometime.) But speaking of DRAWING PICTURES: That reminds us of the thing we started out to tell you. Though both the twins, for a of reasons, have for a| long time rated special mention |here in this column, what is of im- | | mediate importance is the fact that tomorrow (Friday) night at 8 o'clock, Mary will be starting |an informal class in finger-painting | jand drawing at the USO for all interested servicemen and GSO Is. Be sure to come to it, either | as a would-be artist or a spec- tator. The teacher is a gifted artist well worth watching and an | all-around person well worth know- | ing.
