Based here, they can reach the Caribbean in less | time than from any place else in the United States, or they are ina position to head either into the Guf of Mexico or Atlantic Ocean. Incidentally, it is interesting to notice that the division of four bases to Florida out of a total of 30 for the United States, still is giving this state a wide margin over the rest of the nation. If the bases were di- vided equally between the 20 states border- ing or one of the two oceans or the gulf, i would-mean 114% bases for each state. MATSUOKA IN BERLIN The recent visit of Yosuke Matsuoka, Japanese Foreign Minister, to Berlin arcuses interest in the world where people speculate upon the meaning of the long journey undertaken by the Japanese states- man. Two facts shouid be remembered, efforts to interpret the conference between German and Japanese diplomats: (1) the Nazis still expect to win the war, and (2) Tokyo still expects to dominate the Far Fast. Naturally, the parley was conc erned aout methods to be adopted by the two nations to achieve their ambitious attempts world powers.

Roger had hoped that her Baby daugh- ter might calm her down, but the effect was pretty slight. And now, just as they are due at a very special dinner at Aunt Amalia’s, one of Lovely’s’ old friends is to be married. Chapter 25 Disagreement ATIE wrote: “It's to be a quiet wedding.
