w oman ’s Viewpoint— Mars, Not Man,

By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Times Special Writer
SOMETIMES IT'S HARD to believe that man 1s master of his fate. On Sept. x 1939, a thug

Its reactions and troubles are typical, Prior to 1040 it was a slow-grow-ing community, set in a rich tobacco country, and maintained {largely by cigaret factories and the activities of Duke university and the University of North Carolina, In a population of 60,000, onethird was colored.

From the outside, the éxcitement spells commercial health, yet the wise citizens know it is like meringue on pie. The real Durham must stand or fall on its basic industries and rely again on its own production. As elsewhere, these citizens soberly consider the questions, what's before us, in economic ‘adjustments, in radiat probléms and in social changes when the war ends? They know the answers are not to be found in the liquor store,
