No Place for Politics In Foreign Relations There’s No Room for Party Differences HE state department will not reveal to the senate’s committee on foreign relations documents relating to the points at ue between America and Japan because negotiations have not ended. This state of affairs is un- {fortunately somewhat typical ands! why American international relations are so often jiuddled for lack of an all-American foreign policy upon which the two major political parties unite and co-operate, | Political differences should end at the water's edge. So ‘long as international relations cause rivalry between demo- jerats and republicans, foreign nations will try to play one |party against the other. The requirements of government demand in domestic affairs that there be a party in power to make and execute the laws and a party in opposition \to criticise. But, in the field of foreign relations, the op- |position should consist of foreign nations alone, Other- | wise, America will be divided against herself. | Negotiations between the United States and Japan are lof equal interest to all Americans, irrespective of their political partisanship. It should be unthinkable that demo- jerats or republicans would try to score against each other | est Knickerbocker families, has opened a beauty shop for\ot the \and outside may reserve to himself what he chooves of Umber, In a country containing all) women in New York city.

Certainly |the members of the senate’s committee on foreign relations should be consulted by the secretary of state concerning {his basic intentions. The committee, however, may well |delegate to its two ranking democratic and republican mem- {bers the power to determine, in very delicate situations, |whether they alone shall be in the state department's confidence. : Under the operation of some such plan, it will not mat- ter which party controls the state department. America’s interests abroad will not be in jeopardy thru partisan dis- ‘we cord within the United States. Foreign nations will know they deal with an undivided America. The knowledge abroad will be America’s surest safeguard. Sasi Foresight HE greatest magician that ever lived: was Robert Hou- din, French conjurer, born in 1805. But Houdin, after all, was only. a human being and the | time came when his bag of tricks was exhausted. | Napoleon called Houdin to his palace gardens and told him to produce a new trick or lose out at court. Houdin went thru a lot of hocus-pocus and said: “If your majesty will have yonder oak tree cut down, in its heart you will find a gold box and in the gold box a message written by your father 30 years ago.” ‘ the oak was felled. The gold box and its message were found. Houdin, in his memoirs published after his death, con- fessed that 30 years before, he had foreseen just such a sit- uation and had cut irito the oak tree and buried the box. What do you think of that for foresight? Yet Houdin’s ability to figure years in advance was no more remarkable than the foresight of those who have pio- neered scores of great industries or guessed correctly the real estate movement of cities. How many years are YOU looking into the future? Have you given any thought to YOUR condition 30 years from now? On Dress RS. WARREN G. HARDING, the next “first lady,” has this to say on the subject of dress: “I have always felt clothes are tremendously important. No one can afford to be indifferent about them.” Well spoken! Most of us like to say that it is what a person is and not what he looks like that counts. But, lin reality, we make our first judgments of men on their jlooks and find out what they are at our leisure. | Most of us are engaged in the business of “selling” our personalities. It is sad to reflect, but true, that to attract our customers to our characters, we must give ourselves “a lcertain amount of window-gressing. | The function of good cléthes is to provide the imme dite attraction that personality cannot of itself forthwith attract. Besides compelling the instant attention of others, good clothes also have the quality of an encouraging pat on the back of the wearer. Who has not felt the self-confidence and the pep that a new spring suit, or even a new hat, imparts? Foreign travel is fascinating to some because the difference in exchange makes ’em scem richer than they are. The futility of riches ts taughl im the Scriptures and the income tax blank.
