LOOKING AHEAD y GEORGE S. BENSON k Prtsidtft?Htldiuf Ctilt ft I Sttttt/ Jtkftat London Today England suffered much during the war. Many blocks In the heart of the great city of London, completely razed by the Nazi "Luftwaffe," re main unrepaired. All parts of the city sustained scattered damage from the raids. They took much punishment bravely, and they are industriously setting about to repair their country. Perhaps it is partly Britain's prox imity to continental troublemakers and the consequent disaster, al though some of these trouble spots have been pawn as well as threat during her history, that gives the people such an awareness of foreign relations. They have learned the defenses that are usually provided by a good foreign office, and have developed shrewd international statesmen. There is little apparent disunity in their foreign policy. Nonetheless, war came to them, and their sufferings were great. Re construction in Britain is moving slowly. A long time will be required for complete rebuilding, even of her damaged streets and destroyed buildings. Materials are short, and rationing diverts most materials into home building, which is pro ceeding slowly also. Rationing Slow-Down Most Britons feel that rationing of materials has slowed production. The government is meticulous about "filling out forms," and the proper approval must be had to obtain each different type of building material. Sometimes brickwork must stop because the bureau controlling glass has not approved and returned the forms for buying windows. The London press announced while I was there that building contrac tors were being granted extra gaso line rations because of the addition al travel required to get their nu merous forms filled out and circu lated to wholesalers and retailers, which they found necessary to do in order to complete a building. All rationing seems to move slow ly. r or instance, i naa to obtain I food points to give the hotel for the week 1 was in London. Upon the advice of the hotel manager that I should report at the rationing of fice when the doors opened at nine o'clock, I arrived at 8:45 and found a long queue already waiting. Eventually I found myself in a spe cial room for foreign visitors, with only a few of the waiting applicants, and had to wait only about an hour. The speed of the ration clerks re minded me of some of our own paid clerks during the war: it was evi dent they were not paid by the num ber of customers they served and that they had no fear of competition. Queues and Bread England is experiencing a greater shortage of food, clothing, and gaso line than during the war, and there fore rationing has not been eliminat ed. On the contrary, soma items are now rationed which were not under rationing during the war. Queues of from 50 to 300 people were constantly on the streets, at most all hours, waiting to get ra tioned articles. I was actually hungry every day I spent in England. Bread counts as one of the three courses avail able for a London dinner, and if bread is ordered this eliminates ei ther the soup or sweet. During my last day in London a hotel waiter was fined $20 for inadvertently put ting a roll on the table for each of two men who had not ordered bread. They chanced to be inspectors. Water-Repellent Hats /imerican-maaa synthetic straw hats as well as handbag* treated with a water-repellent to that light showera will be ahed and finger smudges can easily be sponged off has been developed.
