URGES U. S. LEAD IN WORLD AFTER WAR

LONDON, Dec. 1 (U. P.).—Arthur Greenwood, Laborite, ex-minister without portfolio in the war cabinet, indicated in the house of commons today that the United States should : take the lead in post-war reconstruction. Urging commons to prepare immediately for the post-war period, he said: “Never before has mankind suffered such material destruction. It will: be the duty of those nations who have escaped the worst to come to the aid of those who have experienced the worst. “The united nations, stretching over the seven seas and spreading over the globe, must, in the spirit of the Atlantic’ Charter, work for the realization of the fundamental unity of mankind. Freedom from want must be a cardinal aim.” If preparations were left until after the war, Mr. Greenwood said, it would lead to the postponement and possibly to the destruction of legitimate hopes. “It might ,end in bitter disillusionment which might in this country find an ugly means of expression,” he warned.

OPEN NAVY RESERVE T0 SERVIGE WIVES

WAVE candidates whose husbands are in any branch of the armed services, except the navy, may now enlist or apply for commissions in the women’s naval reserve, according to an announcement today by Ensign Mary Richmond, WAVE procurement officer for the Indianapolis area. As a result of the change in regulations, applications of army, coast guard and marine corps’ wives, who had been barred from the WAVES, will be reconsidered. Rules now also permit WAVES to remain in the women’s naval reserve even if their husbands are drafted. Heretofore, when their husbands went into service, they were discharged.

He Is Rationed, But Not hy War

ST. LOUIS, Mo., Dec. 1.—It was his wife and the Scientific Order of Spectro-Chrome Metrists and not war time rationing that kept meat, sugar and coffee off his table, Andrew Thomas Stevenson complained -in divorce court today. Stevenson said his wife kept quoting tracts in which she attempted to justify the strange dietary rules she enforced in the

well as in the stomach.” He said his wife, Mrs. Edith Virginia. Stevenson, regulated the family’s eating habits to the radiations of the sun and moon. This inflnence, according to Stevenson, prompted her to give their two young children lemonade instead of milk and no eggs because “eggs are the cause of Adolf Hitler's temper.” Mrs. Stevenson, in a cross bill, denied the allegations and sought a divorce on grounds of “general indignities.”

LIFE THREATENED, M'GARRAN CLAIMS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1 (U, P.).-= Senator Pat McCarran (D. Nev.) told the senate banking and currency committee today that his life had been threatened by an “ill-advised citizen” whose ire had been aroused against members of the ‘senate silver bloc because they had been represented in magazine and newspaper articles as “traitors to their country.” McCarran, testifying on a bill by Senator Theodore F. Green (D. R. I.) to release government silver for war use. said he had sent photocopies of the threatening letters to the U. S. secret service. “You cannot be other than cogs nizant of the matter when the editor of the Saturday Evening Post said someone should go into a meeting of 12 (silver bloc) sengtors and use a lead pipe,” McCarran continued.
