The MARCH OF TIME Prepared by the Editors of TIME The Weekly Nowsmagazine PEACE & PREPAREDNESS— WASHINGTON — Although the collective disposition of the U.S. public is dead set against foreign alliances, a recent Gallup poll reveals that 74 per cent of the U.S. public is eager to buy the big navy that Franklin Roosevelt asked congress to approve fortnight ago, "solely because . . . additional land and sea armaments of other countries (are) a threat to world peace and security." In 1916 Woodrow Wilson began with a policy of peace and preparedness, then took to playing ball with the British and ended up by saving the world for democracy at a total cost to the U.S. of 126,000 lives and $40,000,000,-000. Besides proposing a big navy, President Roosevelt has also said that world peace depends on the co-operation of the world's democracies (the U.S., England and France), and if Roosevelt was about to embark on the same tragic course followed by Wilson, the U.S. senate and house of representatives last week demanded to know about it. In the senate, Foreign Relations Chairman Key Pittman uprose to answer the charge made day before by Isolationist Hiram Johnson that the U.S. "had no foreign policy", that the state department's protestations of peace were at odds with the president's threat to "quarantine" aggressor nations. Said Senator Pittman: "When the president . . . first entered office he announced what I consider the fundamental foreign policy of our government—non-interference and non-intervention in the affairs of other governments. I know of no instance so far of that policy being violated." Robert W. Bingham, the late U.S. ambassador to Britain has assured a British audience: "If we have not entered into a combination with any foreign country looking to any kind of defense of this country (or) another country. There is no action any authoritative officer of our government indicating such action. I think the cheapest thing the country can do for the sake of civilization . . . is to spend a few billion dollars to warn the world that we alone will destroy a government that attacks us."

Mindful of this, Borah thundered: "Such statements inevitably cause the other nations ... to understand that we have a foreign policy based upon a particular relationship with the British nation, and when they look about and see that we are building a navy like of which has never been known in time of peace, they reach but one conclusion. . . Very soon we are at midst of war by reason these misunderstandings." Standing firm, Pittman retorts: "We have not entered into a combination with any foreign country looking to any kind of defense of this country (or) another country. There is no action any authoritative officer of our government indicating such action. I think the cheapest thing the country can do for the sake of civilization . . . is to spend a few billion dollars to warn the world that we alone will destroy a government that attacks us." In the house, Meantime, hearings on the $800,000,000 national appropriation bill before the home naval affairs committee, the mosphere was even more elec than on the senate floor. Too cited to accept the calm analysis of the situation by Admiral William D.

The house. Meantime, in wages on the $800,000,000 naval variation bill before the house affairs committee, the attire was even more electric on the senate floor. Too expose to accept the calm analysis situation by Admiral WilD. Leary, chief of naval operations, who said the navy wants money "to provide defense at attack on our shores by these enemies" and that "there nothing in this program that permit of aggressive action, killing the world, or of project an attack against the ter-foof any other naval power,"ittetee members began asking later than February 20" whether she was building or planning 46,-000-ton super-battleships, as "persistently and cumulatively" reported. Admiral Leahy's reason for being secretive about what Captain Ingersoll had been up to became immediately understandable: Signers of the 1936 Naval Treaty (U.S., France, Britain) are bound morally if not legally to go through the formality of asking a non-signer if it has exceeded the 35,000-ton capital ship limit before the signers can take steps to match or better it. According to best informed Washington newsmen, Capt. Ingersoll had gone to England to find out just how to build a big battleship (the U.S. has not laid one down in 20 years) and to confirm reports of Japan's big battleship building. Admiral Leahy could not tell this story with Hull's formal question to Japan on the subject about to be put on the cable in four hours. OUTSMARTED— WASHINGTON—a story of how reporters at a recent Press club dinner tried to outsmart the president and were themselves outsmarted appeared last week in the monthly sheetlet of the National Press club. On the back of a menu they had written: "I hereby nominate Herbert Bratter (a Washington writer) as ambassador to the North Pole." Folding the menu so these words were hidden, they passed it to the president to be autographed. When the menu was returned, they discovered that the president had unfolded it, struck out "North", inserted "South" added: "(North Pole already occupied))" LITTLE MEN— WASHINGTON — Since U.S. business bigwigs have lately taken White House visits, they were building or planning 46,-000-ton super-battleships, as "persistently and cumulatively" reported. Admiral Leahy's reason for being secretive about what Captain Ingersoll had been up to became immediately understandable: Signers of the 1936 Naval Treaty (U.S., France, Britain) are bound morally if not legally to go through the formality of asking a non-signer if it has exceeded the 35,000-ton capital ship limit before the signers can take steps to match or better it.

Admiral Leahy could not tell this story with Hull's formal question to Japan on the subject about to be put on the cable in four hours. 125-mile trip to Washington. Biggest of the little businessmen was not identifiable. With fire in their eyes and speeches on their tongues the 800 delegates assembled in the big department of commerce auditorium to be welcomed by Secretary Roper. Roper wanted the delegates to break up into groups to discuss special topics like housing, unemployment, social security. About two-thirds of the delegates marched out to find the committee meetings. To these remaining Chairman Roth said: "Evidently you are not interested in the problems to be discussed at the other meetings!" "Right!" roared the delegates. Belatedly it was discovered that general taxation had not been assigned as a discussion topic and a score of little men rushed out to constitute themselves an eleventh group. Plans for the nation's salvation included changing the faces engraved on the currency, establishing a government school for inventors, "driving out Satan", and building a $10,000,000,000 coast-to-coast express highway. However, plenty of serious work was done in the group discussions, though even when the reports were presented in resolution form it was clear that each group was trying to steel the show. The group on "development and location of small business" decided "If American leaders, as represented by the federal government, would light some place and maintain a constant perch rather than flit about like a canary, American business would find some encouragement." Although most of the little men packed off home when the conference broke up, Chairman Roth and the heads of 11 discussion groups (plus one uninvited delegate) made their way into the president's office for a 90-minute earns $18 a week, plus pension. Adhesions developed after his appendix was removed a submarine off their island coast. He gets up a 7-cycle to work, smokes rays than ten cigarettes, leaves usually at 5 o'clock to cycle again to his six-room, $54 home, which he painted color. There he is greeted plump, pink wife and cute Peter, dines lightly, reads ous book, shuffles to bed. After staying up far past average bedtime for several of shows, dances and through British Broadcasthouse, Mr. and Mrs. New happily back in their com­obesity last week. Saxon land's average man: "I'm and I like it." WHY NOT? SAN FRANCISCO—Harrison film Producer Samuel Gill last week said: "I go too early every night. Why not? To do something to take risk off my business." FASTEST— NEW YORK—The world's record (on boards) for yard dash, which for 15 yrds at 6.2 seconds, we week shattered before thre­ished eyes of 17,000 ardees fans assembled in Madison Square Garden annual Millrose games. Benjamin Washington of Columbia, a little Negro long on medals but short licity, registered three flashes: the first heat in onds, the semi-final in final in 6 seconds flat. Ben Johnson went the Wanamaker trophy for standing performance both and round-the-world ac­cident the world's fastest human to accept the calm analysis situation by Admiral Willeys.

Iois' Congressman Church had to know if it was true that present Roosevelt had held up rearmament message until Royal E. Ingersoll returned Washington from London, he conferred with the Britilimiralty; demanded to know over a U. S.-British naval standing actually existed.ral Leahy replied: "I will frank statements in private men; of course, with the underning that it is absolutely sec-ron the basis that it is vital interests and defense of the ary." is "maybe" answer to Reprelive Church's inquiry was lived almost instantly with page news from the state treatment—an apparent ultima-dential with two others Britain and France asking a point blank to reveal "not WASHINGTON — Since U. S. business bigwigs have lately taken and given counsel at the White House, Secretary of Commerce Daniel Roper last month thought it would also be a good democratic thing to bring the nation's little businessmen to Washington (at their own expense) to see and present their plans and problems to the president. According, 500 little businessmen chosen largely at random from thousands who have written the president—and 300 more who had harried their cengressmen for bids—last week stormed the nation's capital at the invitation of President Roosevelt' and Secretary Roper. Littlest little business man to receive an invitation was Philadelphia's James A. Buckley, whose turkish-towel-making business is so small that he can transact all his telephonic negotiations from the pay station down at the corner salooa so unprofitable that Buckley reluctantly had to forego the II American leaders, as represented by the federal government, would light some place and maintain a constant perch rather than flit about like a canary. American business would find some encouragement." Although most of the little men packed off home when the conference broke up, Chairman Roth and the heads of 11 discussion groups (plus one uninvited delegate) made their way into the president's office for a 90-minute talk, presented a 23-point program asking much the same things big business had sought: A balanced budget, modification of the capital gains tax, repeal of the undistributed profits tax, revision of the Wagner act. Typically little business were requests for stronger anti-monoply legislation, the creation of a permanent little business council, bigger and better bank credit through insured loans and, if necessary, through a special governmental agency. The president did most of the talking, approved most points, but stepped flatly on such planks as modification of the Wagner act, downward revision of taxes, and opposition to a wage and hours bill. As the committee filed out and started home, commented New York "Times" Correspondent Arthur Krock: "The little laughs in Washington this week were at GALLEY 3—MARCH OF TIME ...the expense of the little businessmen...But the big laugh was at the expense of the president and his administration." AMBITIOUS—MADISON, Wisconsin — With 871 of the 20,000 inhabitants of southwestern Wisconsin's Iowa county on relief, the county welfare committee last week announced that it will act on no more relief applications from new-lyweds, would order all clients driving cars to turn in their license plates. Said Chairman Carl Rowe: "We had to discourage some of the more ambitious relief seekers." BEATRIX—NEW YORK—After one of the Holland-America liner "Rotterdam's" 565 crew-members refused last week in Manhattan to sign the crew's round-robin message of congratulations to Crown Princess Juliana of The Netherlands on the birth of her first child, other crew-members explained: "We annual Millrose games.

Do not fly kites near electric wires. 2. Never use wire or tinsel cord, or cord that has become damp from rain or fog. 3. If cord is caught in an electric line ... let go! Do not try to pull it down.

BEATRIX— NEW YORK—After one of the Holland-America liner "Rotterdam's" 565 crew-members refused last week in Manhattan to sign the crew's round-robin message of congratulations to Crown Princess Juliana of The Netherlands on the birth of her first child, other crew-members explained: "We popped that Communist stoker on the nose. The 'Rotterdam' is a royalist ship!" Meanwhile, at rural Soestdyk in The Netherlands, modern-minded Prince Consort Bernhard had his newborn daughter named Beatrix Wilhelmina Armgard (Beatrix means "She that makes happy") but only with the stipulation of Her Majesty Queen Wilhelmina that Princess Beatrix will be "Queen Wilhelmina" if she ever comes to the thrown. AVERAGE MAN— LONDON—By winnowing statistics from libraries, cinemas, grocery shops, barbers, and tailors, the London "Daily Express" succeeded in reconstructing the average man, then offered to publish the political views of the Britisher who could fit most exactly this dummy's specifications—a reward pleasing to the average Britisher. Among 5,000 aspirants for the honor, 33-year-old government radio operator Robert Barlow Neve fitted most comfortably into the average man's shoes down to the funniest qualifications—rheumatism. His wavy hair is brown, he is 5 ft. 7½ in.; his nine shirts and three suits were bought without his smiling wife's interference. As England's average man he turns $18 a week, plus $2 war pension. Adhesions developed after his appendix was removed board a submarine off the Algerian coast. He gets up a 7 o'clock, circles to work, smokes no more than ten cigarettes, leaves punctually at 5 o'clock to cycle back again to his six-room, $5-a-week home, which he painted cream color. There he is greeted by his bump, pink wife and only child,eter, dines lightly, reads a series book, shuffles to bed at 10:30. After staying up far past their average bedtime for several nights shows, dances and a tour through British Broadcasting House, Mr. and Mrs. Neve were happily back in their comfortable security last week. Said England's average man: "I'm in a rut, and I like it." WHY NOT?" SAN FRANCISCO—Hard-work-film Producer Samuel Goldwyn last week said: "I go to a movie every night. Why not? I've got to do something to take my mind of my business." ASTEST—NEW YORK—The world indoor record (on boards) for the 60-card dash, which for 15 years has good at 6.2 seconds, was last week shattered before the astonished eyes of 17,000 ardent track fans assembled in Manhattan's Madison Square Garden for the annual Millrose games. Benjamin Washington Johnson of Columbia, a little Negro who is long on medals but short on publicity, registered three lightningashes: the first heat in 6.2 seconds, the semi-final in 6.1, the final in 6 seconds flat. To little Den Johnson went the Rodman Wanamaker trophy for the outstanding performance of the meet and round-the-world acclaim as the world's fastest human.
