ST. PATRICK'S DAY
"Sure, and it's a great day for the Irish!"
And what greater day for the Irish could there be than St. Patrick's Day when the sons and daughters of the Emerald Isle pay homage to their patron saint.
A poet once said that "all the world is Irish on the Seventeenth of March." And so it would seem, for from Dublin to "Down Under" the "wearin' of the green" predominates on that occasion.
Certainly there are few events so widely observed and fewer still which produce such jollity and enthusiasm.
The world has been enriched by the wit and humor of the Irish, by their warm-hearted impulses, their cheerfulness, and, we might add, their love of a good scrap. America is proud to number among its citizens many who were born in Ireland or who trace their ancestry to that fam-
will cost us plenty, but staying out would probably cost us much more in the long run.
'AMBASSADOR' TRUMAN
President Harry Truman apparently did a pretty good job of "good willing" on his recent trip to Mexico.
Although our relations with Mexico have been fine in recent years his visit has undoubtedly brought about a greater feeling of warmth and cordiality between the two governments.
Such things are highly important in these days—important not only politically but important in their effects on international trade.
What the President has done on a political level in his trip to the Mexican capital, American representatives of industry, agriculture and finance are also doing on a business level. In other words, they are working to estab-
Certainly there are few events so widely observed and fewer still which produce such jollity and enthusiasm.
The world has been enriched by the wit and humor of the Irish, by their warm-hearted impulses, their cheerfulness, and, we might add, their love of a good scrap. America is proud to number among its citizens many who were born in Ireland or who trace their ancestry to that famous isle.
And so, America joins with them in celebrating their Day of Days—St. Patrick's Day. "Sure, and it's a great day for the Irish."
GREEK PROBLEM
Britain's weakening economy which is forcing her to withdraw from Greece is presenting Washington with one of its toughest international problems. Our State department knows very well that if the void left by the British departure is not filled by us the Communists will move in. That would put the entire Balkans under the Russian heel. It would place Moscow in a stronger position to bring pressure on Turkey in regard to the Dardanelles. This dominant position in the eastern Mediterranean would also be a threat to the vital oil fields of the Middle East which we must depend on in case of war. So, it looks like we'll have to move into Greece, not to pull Britain's chestnuts out of the fire but to save our own. Moving in

Burglaries, supposed to be following the circus, ramsacked three homes in this city while the villies were away last Wednesday night and got away with nothing, jewelry and money to buy value probably of a thousand dollars. The houses looted were use of Frank Tausch on North Monroe street, W. E. Duckworth, North Los Angeles street, and E. Brus, on Kroeger street. All three burglaries are supposed to have been committed by a gang of three men, who were traveling an automobile. Three men were then by neighbors leaving the Duckworth house about 11 o'clock. They departed hurriedly from the front door as Mr. and Mrs. Duckworth entered by the door. Mr. and Mrs. Tausch are attending a party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Mann upon reaching home about noon discovered that thieves made a good haul. The Brus case was ransacked while Mr. and Mrs. Brus were at the circuits... they also made a good haul there. Officers throughout southern California are on the lookout for gang.
