A BATCH OF DISARRANGED notes dedicated to the males of Indianapolis who want to get their minds off the war: Most of the things Indianapolis women are going to wear this summer button down the front. Last year the buttons and button holes showed. This summer, in the case of chambrays, there's a flap of the same material to cover the buttons. There’s been a big call for chambrays this summer. They muss terribly, but wash beautifully. The outfits are made by "men Shirtmakers and sell anywhere from $5 to $16.75. They come in soft shades with pale blue stripes about the width of 2 finger. No candy stripes in chambrays. All cham“brays must have Hi-Lo necks or round necks and no collar, Candy stripes are the latest thing in cottons. “This is’ a cotton summer.

Washington

WASHINGTON, June 20.— Some hint of the changes that will be wrought in the United States by Hitler's conquest in Europe is conveyed in the announced intention of President Roosevelt to recommend legislation calling for universal Government _ training. _ This is' something broader than straight-out military conscription. Mr. Roosevelt conceives of it as “universal Government service.” He has given much thought to the plan in recent weeks, and while all the details are not yet determined, the main outline appears to be fixed. Boys and girls of a given age would spend one year in the Government training service. No distinctions would be made because of economic or social status. Training would embrace a large variety of skills, and at the moment the emphasis is on behind-the-lines iraining, mechanics training, industrial training, as well as direct combatant training. While it is desired to include girls in the program, there has been some difficulty in finding enough kinds of work at which they might be trained. Presumably these would include hospital and nursing training, and also industrial training

for factory operatives. : n=

HYDE PARK, Wednesday—Yesterday morning, at the invitation of Mrs. Pearl Buck, I signed a book which is to be sent to the women of China as a trib-

Women in every country are being forced to show qualities of heroism and endurance which in recent years of civilization they have "hardly been called upon to develop. : Somehow or other, the inevitable is always met and the march of force at the moment seems to have an inevitable ending of oppression and sorrow for those who fall beneath its power,

apparently is not definitely fixed, but it might be at 20 or 21 for boys and possibly slightly earlier for girls. The whole question must of course be submitted to Congress for consideration and final determination. Doubtless there will be some bitter opposition, for the United States has never embarked upon such a program even in wartime. We adopted conscription after we entered the World War and then it was restricted only to active military training. The present proposal is for all-inclusive training of every growing American, and it is training for general service in soéiety, not being restricted to the military phase. This is in recognition of the fact that total war means mobilization of the whole ‘population in a

national effort. ”

A Lesson Learned

This is the impact of what we recently were referring to as “Europe’s war” brought into almost every family in the United States. Many will immediately recall the Hitler youth and the labor camps for boys and girls, where the growing generation of the whole nation was toughened physically and inculcated mentally in the Spartan Nazi way of life. No doubt Mr. Roosevelt is thinking that democracy must also exact discipline and loyalty to its needs in order to be able, if necessary, to match its strength with that of totalitarian power. We are profiting by the lesson of France and England, where the failure was not only on the battlefield, but in the economic organization and the concentration of effort behind the lines, in the life of the nation itself. We see from this proposal that democracy, in order to equip itself to survive in this world, may adopt some of the methods that have made the dictator countries strong, and without which we might not be able to meet the showdown if it should ever come.

When he plays were over, Prof. Lindeman of the New School for Social Research led a panel up on the stage to discuss the value of these productions. Half of the panel consisted of teachers who had assisted their students, either as part of the curriculum- or as extracurricula activities, in producing these plays. The rest of us were lay people, though, as I think it over, I was the only genuine lay person there, everybody else could claim to be an expert in some field. Not only the panel, but the audience and the actors took part in the discussion. I am more and more ‘impressed with the ability developed in high school pupils to express. themselves and to have definite views of their own based on reasons which they ‘can explain.

Times Special Writer

VV ASHINGTON, June 20.—His friends

. offer Senator Arthur H. the Republican. Presidential

Strong

Vandenberg of Michigan for nomination

experienced leader who has been activ in both national and international affairs b fore and since

the New Deal began.

He has left his imprint on important domestic logis lation in the dozen years he has been in the Senate, while his is one of the most effective voices raised in criticism

of Roosevelt foreign policy.

After the 1936 campaign the Michigan Senator became, by a sort of common consent, “The Man Who” for

1940. But before the 1936 convention which nominated Governor Landon of Kansas, he kept in the background and did little to

- advance his candidacy.

Other figures loomed up—no‘tably Taft of Ohio and Dewey of :New : York—and by continuous activity pushed themselves ahead. Senator Vandenberg’s name was entered: in ‘two primaries, Wisconsin and Nebraska, but he declined to go to those states to ask for support. His defeat by Mr,

-Dewey in both states—tacitly ac-

cepted beforehand as Vandenberg preserves—obscured his star. ; In recent weeks, however, emphasis on the critical international situation has brought him: prominently into the discussion again. Practically, it is argued, he is in a good position to emerge as the nominee if a deadlock develops between Senator Taft and Mr. Dewey, both of whom probably will enter the convention with many more delegates than he can expect at the outset. Further, it is contended, if the Republicans make a leading issue of Roosevelt foreign policy, Senator Vandenberg would be their. logical candidate, because he has been most closely identified with opposition to some steps of that policy.

o » ” E was one of the leaders in the fight against repeal of the arms embargo in the Neu_trality Act, while Senator Taft aligned himself with the President on that issue. Senator Vandenberg will be in the center of the controversy at Philadelphia over the foreign policy plank in the Republican platform. Recently, he has re-defined his position on a practical basis in the light of developments. Taking nothing back, he accepts the present position of the United States as one of “non-belligerency” instead of “neutrality.” This, he contends, is a delicate and dangerous position, requiring great care to avoid involvement in the European War. He, himself, expresses whole-hearted sympathy with the Allied cause. Above all else, he said, “the American people insistently demand that we keep out of war

Boys’ State Laws Not Quite Ready

The “State Legislature” worked all day yesterday at the job of first, second and third reading of bills, but very few were sent to “Governor” Ed Langas of Ft. Wayne for signature and “City” and “County” law enforcement officers had little work today. Howard - Meyer, dean of. the camp and an Indianapolis attorney, made a speech at general assembly this morning on “Public Education as a Public Function.”

FARMERS PREPARE TO HARVEST WHEAT

Wheat cutting will start here within the next 10 days and most of the crop will ‘be cut by July 4, A. A. Irwin, assistant Marion County agricultural agent, said today. Wheat cutting already is underway in southern Indiana river bottoms. The Marion County wheat seems to be in“ good condition; Mr. Irwin said, although the acreage is less because “of smaller fall planting. Oats also are looking good but some corn has not yet been cultivated for the first time because of a series of light rains. “Last Sunday in a drive through rural sections I saw a number of places where the weeds were so thick it" was difficult to tell where the ‘torn rows were, ” Mr. Irwin said. “As a result the corn is turning

{yellowish. If the farmers can get

into the fields with their plows within the next few days they can prevent any serious damage i the crop.”

The place for us finally to ‘save democracy’ is right here at home.” # |» = N the Neutrality Act fight last autumn, Senator Vandenberg expressed fear that revision to permit sale of munitions to the Allies might eventually lead the United States. into the war, One influence on viewpoint, undoubtedly, was the investigation of the munitions industry, conducted by a special Senate committee of which he was a member, which delved into the steps leading up to our patricipation in the | including financial commitments. : He pulled no punches in that investigation and ‘won wide acclaim for his courage. . As a member of the Senate Foreign = Relations Committee, Senator - Vandenberg began the agitation for [revoking the 1911 trade treaty with Japan, as a brake upon Japanese aggression in China, which was followed up promptly by the State Department. ! Sod He recently urged, as he did at that time, that this country negotiate a new |trade treaty with Japan to Stabilize our relations in the Far East, saying, “A pacified Pacific could be almost equivalent to half a navy in our scheme of defense.” | He also has demanded that the United States withdraw its recognition of Soviet Russia.

He §s supported some New Deal objectives, vigorously’ opposed others, and was largely instrumental in forcing revision of ‘the Social Security Act in the last session: of Congress.

The ‘Public Service Commission has ordered intrastate telephone toll rates reduced, effective July 1, which will result in savings of more than $300,000 annually to Indiana users. The order, which affects toll rates of the Indiana Bell Telephone Co. and the independent connecting companies, was made on a volun=tary schedule offered by the companies. Toll rates for station-to-station calls for distances of more than 96 miles will be from 5 to 25. cents cheaper and person-to-person calls for distances of more than 48 .miles will be 10 to 35 cents cheaper. The Commission pointed out that tolls on calls less than 96 miles are on a parity or lower than the schedules for interstate calls as fixed by the Federal Communications Come mission. The reduced toll schedule was urged by Governor M. Clifford Townsend several months ago when a survey disclosed that rates for more than 100 milés were higher in Indiana than interstate calls.
