ARMIES MUST EAT Phrases are easy for the tongue; an "army of occupation' sounds like a simple gesture. One nation owes another nation; an army of occupation camps on the debtor's territory until the bill is paid. Tha t looks plain and simple enough. Yet there is another side to the idea. Soldiers want to be paid. Even 10,000 men absorb quite a little capital in wages, aa any one can discover who cares to try supporting 10,000 lor a year. Multiply that many times ever and you have one considerable item. Then they must eat, over and above their wages. It is surprising the amount of food 10,000 persons can put away in a single day; it is not necessary to experiment with this, just watch the commissariat of a circus some time. Then, also, they roust sleo. and it takes a number of roofs, tent

That was the turning point of the confer

ence, although it took a little time for the Old World to back up and strike a new direction. The American statement was palpably honest, just and disinterested. Clearly it was the acid test, and someone' among the European powers was shrewd enough to perceive the exact importance involved in it, and the high degree of attention it received from the Turks. One thing impressing Europe was the fact that when soviet leaders attempted to belittle the statement, the supposed Turkish allies remained unmoved, and with their attention fixed on the American position. Acceptance "in principle" by the European powers was the sane and obvious move for Europe, with the two-fold ef feet of fulling the suspicions of the Turks and .enhancing the moral authority of the United States." So long as the American representatives dominate the situaTurks are inclined to trust Europe; that confidence is based solely in the belief that what Europe pledges before America's face it never will dare to repudiate behind America's back. What was lacking at the conference table was confidence on either side. The United States supplied it, not by Pharisaical virtue. But by laying down a cardinal formula of justice.

Of course you will get her something she will treasure for herself. But why not get her a Thor also a gift that will last a life-time that will give her many hours of freedom through the years? , More than a mii'ion women are proud

I yield me to rootle melancholy, Whenever logic tells my weary brain That muiv of the sweetest kinds of folly That I have known, I shall not Uite a alaf That there are scenes that I may not revisit. And woodland ways that I may walk no more I know and care but little. But why la It That I am sad for foolish deeds of yore? For young romance I wear n weeds nor willows, For triumphs past I shed no longing tears, But, oh, those sweet and sill peccadilloes That are impossible to riper years! The easy, garrulous intoxication. The ems that now have not the taste of in The hell-to-pay that roused my exultation More than if heaven had been the goal to win! Even the heinous crimes I have committed Attract me, when I tell myself the truth; I was a criminal, era age had bitted The dark, wild horses of rebellious youth!

Excel in some art that's of little import, Indite a ridiculous book, Or gladden the fans in commercialized sport, Or pole as a prince though a crook; The papers and posters will broadcast your name And the crowds will come flocking to pay. But if you persist in deserving real fameGod help you; ypuU fall by the way. Better shine as a star in a cinema show, Or prove to the mob you can fight. The glad hand will greet you wherever you go You're "a man among men" overnight So take this advice, whosoever you be: If you're young and desire renown. Don't look for the same in a college degree Unless you own half of the town. Jamas Lawlor.
