Woman's Viewpoint— Old Books Are A Haven From War News
By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Times Special Writer LET US GIVE thanks for our poets! What a relief it is to put down “Guadalcanal Diary” for the new volume of Robert Frost. War changes our literature no less than our habits. From the presses there pours a flood of books about present ‘even t—ac~ counts, often poignantly told, of fighting activities, or. of miracuious rescues like that in “The Raft.” Or we have books like Allan Miéhie’s “The Air Offensive Against Germany” and “We Can Win This War,” by Col. W. F. Kernan, which chart some course for victory. Added to these are the “peace books,” thousands of them, which would instruct us in the best way to reach

Sentiment o on [Trade Act
Broadside Is Issued ‘By Women’s League
Data on the viewpoints of Indiana congressmen on renewal of the trade. agreements act will be compiled. for the council meeting of the Indians League of Women Voters to be
in Gary, May 11 and 12. Several letters have been received at the
(Headquarters of the Jengus:ithls
Wook, that crippling amendments will defeat the trade agreements program, the National League of Women Voters has issued a broadside calling for extension of the trade agreements act for another threa years in its present form. Published for nation-wide eirculs-
| tion by league members, the leafiet
cautions, that “extension of the act with amendments permitting congress to approve or veto agreements will be a retreat undermining cone fidence in future U. 8. policy . extension with amendments giving special interest groups greater voice in negotiating would hamstring the orogram . . . extensions for less than the usual three years will indicate what may be a fatal lack of SuBdlite in the objectives of the
Pe that opposition to th program comes from traditior high tariff advocates and isolation. ists, the broadside points out that opponents are more likely to work | for “limiting” amendments than risk public disapproval or the international repercussions that wouldy | result from throwing the act out) entirely. It states that the renewal of the act without amendment will “show willingness to continue cooperation to promote world stabil ity.”
Will Review Material
The league observes that the trade agreements program has stood the test of time, that public opinion favors -it and is more than ever aware of its relation to post-war policy, that the world is looking for some clue as to whether this coun try means to turn inward or oute ward “when the shooting stops.” The league holds that votes on amendments to the act may indicate post-war attitudes of congress “more clearly” than the final vote on passage. The delegates at the council meeting of the state league who will review the broadside and discuss reports from congressmen will be state board members, department chairmen, chairmen of standing committees and presidents of she, : 24 local leagues in the state. AIR members of the league may atte as visitors.

AS A HAVEN from this babel of tongues, one is forced to go back to the old, loved books. There only do we find medicine to calm oup souls. The great essays of Emerson fall upon our minds like soothing balm, for they deal with eternal varieties. To endure today’s turmoil we need these timeless books. There are so many good ones—‘Amiel’s Journal,” “Imitation of Christ,” “The Oxford Book of ' English Verse,” Emily Dickinson, and the voice of New England Robert Frost, who tells us “To choose something like a star, Listen—
“So when at times the mob is swayed To carry praise or blame too far We may choose something like a star To stay our minds on and be staid.”
"This sort of reading is imperative, if we are to keep our mental balance. For the radio dins battles into ears, and our newspaper headlines speak only of tragedy and strife. A too intent: inspection of things which are near, dims visions of the future. Yet whatever is good in that future will be the same good which the great: writers of the past have told us about.
