The MARCH OF TIME Prepared by the Editors of TIME The Weekly Nowsmagazine LION MEETS LAMB WASHINGTON — Out of the elevator in Washington's Hotel Willard last week stepped President-William Green of the American Federation of Labor and George McGregor Harrison, head of A. F. of L.'s three-man committee now trying to reunite the divided house of labor. Waving his hand in dismay to assembler reporters, photographers and newsreel men, President-Green promptly dashed for Suite No. 301-304 while Harrison shouted: "No comment, no comment!" Soon, striding down the corridor, came Chairman John L. Lewis of the Committee for Industrial Organization and Philip Murray, head of C. I. O.'s ten-man peace committee, both of whom patiently posed for a hundred pictures, said nothing, also vanished into Suite No. 301-304. Thus, meeting face-to-face for the first time in seven months, Bill Green and John Lewis were generally expected to hatch the biggest labor story since the strike in Little Steel. But Chairman Lewis, who was first to emerge from the conference room, only snapped: "General conversations—no conclusions. We are in recess until 4 o'clock," and that afternoon conferences Lewis and Green could only repeat "Same story as at noon." Once more the lion and the lamb of U. S. labor had met; but despite rising pressure from the rank and file in both camps, they could come no closer to agreement on the two municipal points. Roosevelt. Soon calls came for the Roosevelts, their servants and secretaries James Roosevelt rang up; a friend of Mrs. Roosevelt telephoned to apolize frantically for being late because she had left theatre tickets at home. After Manhattan newspapers publicized the number, harassed Mrs. Roosa last week ordered the telephone disconnected, went on a trip. VICTORY PARADE— SHANGHAI China—Many Japanese civilians liquored up heavily in Shanghai last week, shoved and tripped Chinese into gutters as Japanese military forces staged a blatant "victory parade" of such length that it took half-an-hour to pass a given point. Leading the victorious troops were Japanese officers in motor cars or on horses so shockingly thin and ill-eared for as to make many a spectator gasp. Well-fed, clean-uniformed Japanese infantry came next, the middle-aged troops of the Son of Heaven, who are invading China while his better, harder, and younger soldiers guard Manchukuo against Soviet Russia. After the infantry came machine guns, then mountain guns dismantled and packed on skinny horses; finally rumbling heavy artillery, munitions wagons and field artillery corps. What happened just as the victory parade passed the corner of Nanking road was later described by John McPhee, Scottish inspector of Shanghai police: "I saw a figure across the street throw some Charles F. B. Price to visit the Japanese commander and tell him to get his men out. "You are practically INVADING the United States defense sector!" yelled Leathernck Price. You must withdraw immediately." Claiming he had not known any Japanese troops were trespassing on United States-guarded ground, the Japanese commander promptly ordered their withdrawal. MUCH MARRIED— NEW YORK—Insurance Broker Jacques Achille Louis Raffray last week married Mrs. Constance Eda de Bower in Manhattan's city court. Broker Raffray's former wife last month married Captain Ernest Aldrich Simpson. Thus, the six people now bearing the names Raffray, Simpson and Windsor have married and intermarried 13 times and only one of them—the Duke of Windsor—has not been divorced. DISOBEDIENT HERBERT— LONDON, Humorist A. P. Herbert—a member of parliament, uprose last week in the house of commons to make fun of the Population bill introduced by Minister of Health Kingsley Wood, who says the United Kingdom is ceasing at such an alarming rate to bear children that its population will have dropped from 44,-000,000 to 5,000,000 in 100 years. "I think I have ceased to breed!" announced Humorist Herbert, 47, father of four: "But no one is going to ask me about that. The questions which census agents are to ask from door to door under this Nosey Parker bill are an insult to the nation's women!" The best way to stimulate a British husband and wife to breed, Humorist Herbert gravely advises Lewis, who was first to emerge from the conference room, only snapped: "General conversations—no conclusions. We are in recess until 4 o'clock;" and that afternoon conferences Lewis and Green could only repeat "Same story as at noon." Once more the lion and the lamb of U. S. labor had met; but despite rising pressure from the rank and file in both camps, they could come no closer to agreement on the two principal points at dispute: "What industries are to be designated by mutual consent for industrial organization along C. I. O. lines, and what is to become of C. I. O. Chairman Lewis wants all C. I. O. unions admitted to A. F. of L., settling the jurisdictional questions after they are in; but with nearly 4,000,000 members, C. I. O. would then dominate A. F. of L. Hence, President Green is willing to take back the 12 suspended C. I. O. unions but wants the dual unionism created by the new C. I. O. unions settled by subcommittees before admission. As the two commanders quit last week's meeting grim and glum, merely announced that they would report back—without recommendations—to their respective negotiating committees, Lewis was asked "Is it the status quante?" (meaning war). Replied he: "That would be fair analysis." BORED NEW YORK — Soul-searching German Biographer Erml Ludwig was last week dined in Manhattan by his Publisher Barnarr MacFadden, to celebrate the first installment in "Liberty" of his latest work: "Roosevelt—a Study in Fortung and Power." Biographer Ludwig revealed that in the course of a recent conversation at the White House he had asked his subject: "When you have to fight a whole day against congress and the supreme court, in the evening are you not jealous of the dictators who can simply order what they want?" Replied the president "No, I would hate to be a dictator. I would be bored without opposition." SURPRISE WASHINGTON — Arizona's Senator Henry Fountain Ashurst, chairman of the senate judiciary committee who has publicly referred to himself as the "Dean Emerson of Inconsistency," last guard Manchukuo against Soviet Russia. After the infantry came machine guns, then mountain guns dismantled and packed on skinny horses; finally rumbling heavy artillery, munitions wagons and field artillery corps. What happened just as the victory parade passed the corner of Nanking road was later described by John McPhee, Scottish inspector of Shanghai police: "I saw a figure across the street throw something. I watched a blur coming toward me. The object hit the ground and rolled between my feet. I pushed a Japanese civilian away and turned around just as the object exploded. A piece of shrapnel cut through my coat and hit my police card. I'm pretty lucky. I though I was a goner." "I saw three Japanese soldiers struck by fragments and stumble haltingly," said Shanghai Publisher George Bruce. "There was a burst of blue-black smoke. The parade broke for a distance of 100 yards. For a moment everything was quiet. Then the Japanese soldiers began scattering to both sides of the street." Nobody had been killed, but there was a short, yelling chase down an alley and a Chinese policeman shot dead a man who was, according to the police marksmans, the man who threw the grenade. Before the parade could reform there occurred another, equally fatalistic demonstration. A Chinese patriot, who had watched the bomb explode, shrilly cried: "Long live the Kuzmintang!" (government party), committed suicide by leaping off the top of a tall building. When Japanese patrols, quickly occupying 30 square blocks in the vicinity of the bombing, blocked traffic in the International Settlement and overlapped three blocks into the Shanghai section under United States guard, Commanding U. S. Marine General Beaumont sent Colonel Don't Be Fat! WILL you do only two pleasant things to take off your uly in the evening are you not jealous of the dictators who can simply order what they want?" Repiled the president "No, I would hate to be a dictator. I would be bored without opposition." SURPRISE— WASHINGTON -- Arizona's Senator Henry Fountain Ashurst, chairman of the senate judiciary committee who has publicly referred to himself as the "Dean Emeritus of Inconsistency," last week said to reporters: "If any president so far forgot himself as to appoint me to the supreme court, I would never take my place on the bench—because I would die of surprise." Next day the senator told an autograph-begger to write to his office, added: "I'll not only send you my autograph, but the greatest thing for insomnia you ever had—a set of my speeches."

LOUIS, Missouri—Capital of the state of Illinois, just after it was admitted to the union in 1818, was the town of Kaskaskia, picturesquely perched on an island in the Mississippi river, which divides Illinois from Missouri. Kaskaskia had lost its chief distinction long before 1881, when the meandering Mississippi changed its channel from the west of Kaskaskia Island to the east, washing away part of the town and leaving a willowy, uninhabited slough which now stretches west between Kaskaskia's 107 inhabitants and the old Missouri shore. Kaskaskia proper still belongs to Illinois. Whether the slough, known as Kaskaskia Commons, belongs to Illinois or Missouri is a question which neither state has troubled to settle, but which last week came to the puzzled attention of Judge George Moore in United States district court in St. Louis. Four years ago Farmers Archie Clark and Oliver Lankford of Kaskaskia, involved with a group of Missouri farmers in a title dispute over a pasture in the commons, were arrested for trespassing by Sheriff Henry Drury of Ste. Genevieve; Mo., clapped into his jail for seven days. Farmers THESE ARE ALL THINGS HE WOULD Dress Silk wool or ors. Beautiful Pure All colors.
