BANKERS’ CONFERENCE
The gathering of 15 leaders of banking and
finance at Chapel Hill for the fourth annual
North Carolina Bankers’ conference at the
state university in July will give the reading
public of this section a thorough croes-section
of opinion on matters which lie close to the
hearts of the American peple.
“Meeting Today’s Challenge in Banking,’’ is
to be the theme of sessions. It is already
the theme or most people s imnaing. me
present and the future contain many serious
problems for the wage earner, the salaried
employe, the heads of firms and industries,
no less than leaders in finance and banking.
What the distinguished men on the program
at Chapel Hill will have to say on the subject
will be heard with deep Interest, in the hope
that from their utterances may spring a
trustworthy gauge for personal guidance in
money matters.
It is probable that^he coming years will im
pose additional tax burdens upon us, becaust
of the high cost of defense. It will be inter
esting to learn how leaders in finance view
these necessary burdens and what they hav<
to do as to meeting them, how family budgets
may be drafted to make the load easier ant
how big business may best prepare to carrj
Its share.
RED CROSS NEEDS YOUR AID
The Red Cross is still far from its goal
When the pitiful march of refugees from Hoi
land and Belgium and northern France grev
to almost unbelievable proportions, it was seei
that earlier quotas fixed for local chapter!
throughout the country would be inadequate
and the Washington headquarters of the or
ganization doubled the amounts sought foi
their relief. Thus Wilmington was asked t<
contribute $6,000, instead of the $3,000 previ
ously requested. The chapter here gladly ac
cepted the higher figure and worked valiantl;
and well to raise the total amount.
But its best efforts thus far have resulted li
hoarding only $4,247. This is $1,753 unde
par. What are we to do about it—let th<
chapter down, in its splendid undertaking, o
come across, as we should, with the balance
In a way, the question is a foolish one. I
r\ c
is unthinkable that Wilmington, with its ad
vantages, its big heartedness, should lay down
on the Red Cross.
Of course we’ll contribute the amount ask
ed. But It is important that we do it prompt
ly, not drag it out, while millions of war
victims, the mothers and children and aged
people of Europe’s violated lands, struggle on
shell-torn roads toward whatever safety Eu
rope now offers, with little or no food to sus
tain them in their flight.
Thus far our contributions have been most
ly dimes. Larger donations have come from
some individuals and a bridge tournament
last Saturday yielded a sizeable harvest of dol
lars. But thin dimes have held the lead.
Wouldn’t it be fine if we increased our de
posits in the boxes extended to us by the solici
tors in the streets and at the post office to
quarters, and at frequent intervals? By this
means we would soon complete our quota and
give ourselves one more reason to be proud of
our city.
PRESIDENT SPEAKS PLAINLY
PRESIDENT Roosevelt, in his brief but
4 pungent address to the graduating class of
the University of Virginia, made it very plain
that his opinion of Mussolini is no higher
that that of any other red-blooded American.
“The hand that held the dagger has stuck it
in the back of its neighbor.” Strong words,
forsooth, for the head of one nation to apply
to the head of another; strong and true.
But it is not so much what the President
had to say about II Duce and his trickery
that concerns us now. Interest focuses on the
President’s view of the future of America.
And we are happy to note that his chief con
cern is for defense. Whatever the emergency
abroad, “we need not, and we will not, in
any way, abandon our continuing effort to
make democracy work within our own bor
ders.” “Once more the future of the nation
and of the American people is at stake.’’ "I
call for effort, courage, sacrifice, devotion.
Granting the love of freedom, all these are
possible.’’
Set these words side by side with the Presi
dent’s pledge of full material aid for the Al
lies, and we see the two chief aims of the ad
ministration. Every energy must be bent to
supply England and France with the imple
ments of war in their fight for the sftrvival of
civilization. But also our energies, our plan
ning, our industry, our soil, must be concen
trated upon a program which will keep from
the “unpitying, contemptuous masters of other
continents.”
America’s position in the world crisis is se
rious. Reduced to simple terms it is aid for
our friends, the Allies, and impregnable de
fense. What our aid can be, more than it
has been, is the speeding up of production of
such supplies, munitions and warplanes as we
can rush to them. It should not go beyond
this. An expeditionary force would be futile.
We could not get soldiers into the battle now
raging, provided we had one ready for service,
in time to be effective. It would be folly to
consider such a plan. But, whatever else we
can do will be done with all the efficiency
and skill at our command.
This, however, as the President indicates,
must not be at the sacrifice of our own prep
arations to resist invasion at any future time.
The threat is not immediate. Hitler must
spend much time recruiting his weakened
armies and resupplying them with planes,
tanks, guns and fuel before he could extend
his campaigns to this hemisphere. Nor could
Mussolini lend an efficient helping hand to
speed an invasion. And it is questionable if
Stalin, who undoubtedly is plotting gains for
Russia out of the present conflict without
sharing its burdens, would offer substantial
aid, unless he took command, which Hitler
would not yield. Invasion of these shores, or
the shores of the other nations in the Ameri
cas is a remote thing—probably inevitable if
the totalitarians win a sweeping victory in
France and England—but sufficiently in the
future to allow us time for completing a de
fense program, not only in the United States
but, through encouragement and counsel, in
the rest of the hemisphere.
This is our great, our chief concern. And
it is this Mr. Roosevelt made plain in his ad
dress at Charlottesville.
WHAT WILL BRITAIN DO?
With isolated tanks penetrating practically
to the gates of Paris and a pall of smoke pre
sumably from burning supply bases in the
suburbs, it is apparent that the French cannot
hope to hold out much longer. The capital
seems doomed. But immediate fall of the city
is not indicated, unless Allied resistance,
which is still strong, crumbles at once and
completely. The main line of the attacking
forces is reported, when this is written, still
between 35 and 40 miles distant. Even with
its tremendous striking power, it cannot cover
this mileage in a day, or even two. But what
is a few days more of fighting for such a
price? One can almost see Hitler’s mouth
watering.
With, the Nazis pressing steadily forward
toward this rich prize of war and all the
capture of Paris will involve, without outside
* aid, it is obvious that Mussolini may be rob
i bed of his secret ambition to be in at the kill.
Italian troops, plunged into the war on Mon
day by their blustering chieftain, are report
1 ed rushing here and there with a mighty
clamor and rattle of wheels, but no word
comes from any source of actual fighting in
which they are participating. The bag of
wind makes a big noise but is careful not to
i harm itself.
It would be unwise to assume that Italian
! armies cannot do the Allies harm, if they
really go to fighting. But ihe Irony of the
’ situation is that the Nazis probably will have
- reached their immediate goal, Paris, before
i
Mussolini can strike a serious blow anywhere.
It appears that now, as in the past, his' chief
value to Hitler is as a nuisance to the Allies.
Mussolini, despite his potentialities as a
fighting man, which are still not established,
is, however, of less interest at present, than
what Hitler will do when Paris falls. It
is presumed that his next exploit will be di
rected at England, particularly at London,
where England’s heart beats. Invasion of
England has been a prime objective ever since
the blitzkrieg through the low countries start
ed on May 10. That he will long delay it,
once Paris is taken, is not likely. And when
it begins, when the Nazi power strikes in
stride .across the channel, what will the British
do? Will they hold out until forced into a hu
miliating, HiTLER-dictated peace, or will the
government adjourn to Canada, save what it
can of the British navy and bring it along to
resist attack across our northern frontier?
Should it do this, America will be on the
spot, too. Although there is no reason to sup
pose the totalitarians anticipate an attack on
the United States at once, it will not be a
pleasant experience for this nation to have
the forces of the dictators separated from us
by nothing more substantial than a surveyed
line.
Editorial Comments
From Other Angles
THE VULTURE FLIES OFF THE FENCE
(Charlotte Observer)
Italy casts its lot in with Hitler in pressing
to the utter destruction and annihilation of the
democracies of Europe.
Thus the vulture flies off the fence as the day
for the kill is believed to have arrived.
The decision means that either Hitler sent his
Dr. Hess over to Rome a few days ago to issue
an ultimatum to Mussolini to jump in at this
time or to stay out forever thereafter; or Mus
solini has come to the final conclusion on his
own responsibility that the cause of the Allies
is hopelessly lost and that, in order to protect
himself with the victor, he must play his hand
with his axis partner.
No matter what the motive, Italy’s decision
all but seals the doom of the democracies in
this contest.
Such is ifs clear and implicit design.
It is obvious that with the valiant French
pressed desperately to the wall in a last-ditch
stand to keep the Nazis from possessing Paris
and, therefore, the whole of France, the partici
pation of Italy, with its fine and fresh military
resources, will quickly decide the case for the
French and make the assault upon England
imminent and overpowering.
This is the dire and dismaying outlook.
The action of Italy should be accompanied
by no delusions.
So far as the human perception can reach, it
should make what was already a relatively
sure thing doubly certain for the forces that
are out to destroy modern civilization and bring
the world under the damnable philosophy of to
talitarianism.
This at any rate is the immediate and the
short view to take of the crisis.
What may eventually happen after the de
mocracies have been destroyed is in the lap of
the gods.
Has the traditional passion of the Italian
people against the Tedesco (German) burned
out or has it merely been smothered by a
trumped-up emotionalism which the Fascist
leaders have managed to arouse?
The clever propaganda of Ciano, Farinacci
and a few other high Fascist dignitaries dur
ing the past half dozen years has. of course,
succeeded in veiling that long-established ha
tred for the Germans, but it has, nevertheless,
hardly succeeded in completely hiding it.
Add to this anti-Germanic sentiment which
has been subdued by the coercive measures of
Mussolini and his little coterie of fiendish Hit
1a.tVlA Pfinn q n rl
one wonders how long the Fascist supremacy
which is driving the Italian people to the side
of the Nazis in this epoch-making decision will
stand up after the triumph has been consum
mated and time comes for a settlement.
Mussolini's address of commitment of his
country to the shambles of this war rings the
changes, of course, upon ‘‘Tunis, Djtbuti, Nice,
Suez” as he explains away his history-making
decisions by the need of Italy for colonies to ac
commodate an expanding population, threaded
with a contemptible and lying denunciation of
France and Great Britain for their refusal to
collaborate with him in proposed negotiations to
readjust the map in more sympathetic under
standing of the Italian problem.
All of this is fabricated to conceal the sinister
reality of the case of the dictator.
Distrustful of Hitler as Hitler is of him, Mus
solini has gone into this war either under the
threat of being blitzkrieged if he stays out or
because of promise from the Fuehrer to take
care of him when the spoils of war are being
divided—a promise which will break all of Hit
ler’s record if it is kept.
Time not far distant may prove that Mussolini
has only steered Italy into a cleverly laid trap
in the steel rings of which that country will be
caught through the machinations of the same
monster that dreams of a whole world to con
quer.

Chart A Definite
Course Of Action,
Then Hunt Work
BY T. G. SPATES
Director of Industrial Relations,
General Foods Corporation
First thing I would recommend
for a 1940 school and college grad
uate to do in preparation for con
tact with his prospective employer
IS VV iAIUAftV UlU V
he doesn’t have a
defeatist attitude.
In 1940, many
jobs and op
portunities are
available and
thous a n d s of
new employes
are being in
ducted into in
dustry and
commerce. The
characteristics of
Spates the last 10-y e a 1
period that make
it “different” are that competition
is keener and the challenge to
perseverance is greater. You are
in a buyer’s market so you have
to take the initiative.
If you want a job, chuck the
“what’s-the-use” and “here-I-am”
slogans, and settle down to chart
ing a course of action. Look your
self over both inside and out.
Realize that it isn’t enough just
to offer your services in the mar
ket place. You’ve got to put on
a sales campaign.
Make some notes on how you
have spent your time, what you’ve
got to show for it, and what you
think you can do. If you did not
find out in school, start now to
get some ideas about the major
functions of business organization.
Management publications, busi
ness journals, and trade associa
tions are good sources.
If in no other way, determine,
at least by the process of elimina
tion, the function of organization
in which you are most likely to
be interested. Perhaps some
friend in personnel administration
or your school employment serv
ice could give you a vocational
interest test.
These things help you to pre
pare the plan for your campaign,
and to “talk the language” during
the interview. If you have worked
during summer vacations and
used your leisure time construc
tively, be sure to add those to
your selling points. You should
capitalize on every useful thing
you have done that favors your
selection.
Have a plan. Take the lead in
the interview. Avoid throwing
yourself upon the mercy or sym
pathy of your prospective em
ployer.
Of the many applicants for
positions there are always some
who click. There is never any one
thing that rings the bell.
It is a combination of several
factors, of which the following
preparation; a well organized
statement of your record and as
pirations; precision of expression;
appreciation of the other fellow’s
time; having some real convictions
about your usefulness.
Remember that unless you are
enthusiastic about the product you
have to sell, you can’t expect the
buyer to be!

A Couple Of Dumb-Bells We Can Do Without
| Man About
i Manhattan
By Georqe Tucker
NEW YORK, June 11.—'The vigil
ance of the strong arm squad at
the Fair during the first 30 days of
the season has, to say the very
least, been unremitting, and it is
due to this no doubt that we have
run into only one man, a hard
ware dealer from Pittsburgh, who
has had his pockets picked. This
is an unusual record, and it
speaks well for the future police
commissioners who are roaming
the amusement boulevards and the
intellectual by-ways of the Fair.
This dealer was a man named
Horace H. Morgan and he lost a
wallet that contained $75 in cash,
plus a railroad ticket and various
identification and credit cards.
“The man who worked on me,”
Mr. Morgan explained cheerfully,
“must have been a wonder, be
cause I didn’t feel a thing. It was
that painless. I was just standing
there, watching the doves pluck
the clothes off Miss Rosita Royce.
And after the doves had earned
their encore I started to turn away.
It was then I noticed how light
my coat felt, because with my
wallet in the inside of my coat,
there is a bulge there and it is
usually tight. There was no bulge,
nor was there any v. allet. I still
don’t know how it happened.”
* * *
We didn’t say as much to Mr.
Morgan, but it is our worldly opin
ion that he was anesthetized by
the sight of Miss Royce and her
doves. The pickpocket probably
could have removed his collar and
shoes just as successfully. We say
this on the evidence of Mr. Mor
gan’s own spoken words, for it is
obvious to anyone who is familiar
with the Fair that Mr. Morgan
got his girls wrong. Or maybe it
»vao mo uixua. 1VX1&& UI11 lit
Eve who was clothed only in nudi
ty. is clothed in cooing doves. They
clutter around her and that is all.
There is another trained fowl, and
a smart old fowl he is, known far
and wide as the sarong-snatching
parrot of Miss Yvette Dare, an
other striptease cutie. Miss Dare's
act differs from Miss Royce’s in
that she is clad only in a sarong.
At a critical moment in her act
the parrot plucks off the sarong.
We believe Mr. Morgan is per
fectly sincere in giving his ver
sion of the theft of his wallet but
we still claim that under trick
lights in the noisy, heady atmos
phere of a world’s fair during
these topsy-turvy days it is per
fectly possible and excusable for
a man, especially if he is standing
up close, to confuse a dove with a
parrot. It is quite likely even that
feathers got in his eyes, and when
that happens, who among us can
tell a sarong from a flock of doves
flying in brassiere formation?
• * *
Personally, we feel that Mr.
Morgan is fortunate and that he
got more out of his experiences
with the bird girls than the pick
pockets got out of his wallet. He
las a story to tell and a solid
foundation for his memories. Fur
theremore, he took it standing up.
He was unsettled, even cheerful, re
lating the episode, and when a
nan can be fleeced in this fashion
md bear no grudge against his
.low man he is made of the
■ight stuff.
Note: For those who may wish ;
•o make a point of dropping in on
his parrot who includes Miss]
rVette Dare in his act, she is in

ablishment of Leon & Eddie’s, i

Hollywood Sights And Sounds I
—. -•-By Robbin Coons ■ 1 —— —' |
tiUiu-i ivUUU, June 11.—VVe call
’em film factories, and we say
they grind out their celluloid, and
THIS is how they work — some
times:
Loretta Young, Melvyn Douglas,
Alexander Hall and P. J. Wolfson
are in a huddle beside a bright
kitchen set. Miss Young is wear
ing a fancy black lace thing with
flesh-colored slip; the effect is
startling, but very, very nice. The
other three, and Miss Young, too.
are wearing expressions of pained
concentration.
They are “going over” lines.
They are also improvising lines.
They have a script, but they are
making it “play” as they re
hearse. Hall is the director.
“Pinky” Wolfson is the writer. The
story is “He Stayed for Break
fast,” a light comedy, the natural
follow-up for Hall and Miss Young
after “The Doctor Takes a Wife.”
They come out of the huddle
and go into the rehearsal. Dou
glas plays a humorless waiter, a
“red,” reminiscent of the Garbo
character in “Ninotchka. Miss
Young is a pampered darling of
wealth. The scene is her kitchen.
She is hiding Douglas in a pan
try there. He has just taken a pot
shot at a coffee cup held in the
fat hand of Miss Young’s wealthy
husband, played by Eugene Pal
lette.
* * *
The rehearsal: Miss Young en
ters the kitchen, switches on the
light, opens the pantry door. “You
may come out now,” she says.
Douglas comes out, warm from
confinement, complaining. He
holds a page of new dialogue, re
fers to it frequently. He begins
nibbling at a cookie from a plate
on the kitchen table. Miss Young
sweeps around the other side of
the table and demands an ex
planation of the cup-shooting, and
uouglas is about to give it—but
then he says “Pinky, we need a
line to cover here. . . . Suppose I
say, ’You wouldn't understand'?"
“I’ll try,” Loretta picks it up.
So they settle on this, and are
about to proceed, but Loretta looks
unhappy. If they don’t mind, she
would like to be spotted on the
other side of the table.
“This is my worst possible an
gle,” she says, although she looks
pretty good from any angle.
Nobody minds, so they switch
places, and Miss Young’s left pro
file is to the camera. ;
Douglas, while cookie-nibbling, is
explaining that when he sees pluto
cratic Pallette crooking his little
finger from his coffee cup "every
thing goes black.” He is demon
strating with a cup.
“You mean red.” says Loretta.
“Quit sabotaging me!" cries
Douglas.
“It's got to be faster.” says Hall.
“Get close to her—so close you
can shake the cup at her teeth.
* * *
They try it again, and Douglas
shakes the cup — and Loretta sin
gles, which is not in the Script.
They try it again, from the be
ginning. and Loretta switches 3
the lights, but they don’t go on
“Here I am,” says the unseen
light-switcher-on when a chor ■
from the set calls for action. The
lights switch on.
They do it again, and again.
Umpteen rehearsals — ar.d '
bled cookies—later 'hey are ret:'
to do the scene, minus hand/
scripts.
It is a fast and funny scene
much faster and funnier than
was before the Wolfson - Ha..
Young-Douglas quartet, went
work on it and “played” it
But we still call 'em flint m
tories . . . and Congress tries
legislate drama and humor. ^
