Great Britain
Back in 1939 an average Brit sh
lb1nfly spent on tobacco about 20
per cent of what it spent on meat
and bread. Today. with food prices
kept fairly fixed by means of sub-
sidies, the figure is 129 per cent;
end it is reported that although
many families find it difficult to
Mesa even. lacause of rising com-
modity prices and frozen wages,
they will economize on anything

and taxatio now represents, tla per

It is interesting to note, however,
Thal, the ,portage exist's only in re-
lalicn to an ever-expanding de-
mand. Smokers. looking back to the
days when there were plenty of
ailtart'atcs, forget that tobacco con-
aurnpticm in 1938 was only 190
mullion pounds in weight. This year,
even with all the enforced cuts
tied with so many departing dis-
appointed from the queues, It will
fill reach 201 million pounds.
The cause of this great increase
nl demand: The strain of the war
years, the long periods of anxious
int ape waiting, undoubtedly vast-
. fy increased the amount of "nerve -
:meriting" smoking. Also the con-
tinuing shortage of most consumer
goods has meant little else to spend
money on. and smoking has con-
doned even though goods have be-
come somewhat more plentiful and
rash scarcer.
Finally there ha: been a great
int tease of smoking among women
nI all ages and occupations. as well
an young people of both sexes,

Than in any other country, or so
is. estimated. Many men blame
sheen for the cigarette shortage and
a London newspaper recently atart-
ed a hot controversy by a blunt
demand that they cut their smok-
ing down—or out altogether. But
10 far the lades "just aren't having
say.'
Rationing has been ruled out as
:impra ticable. Grumbling has be-
come%eneral because those whose
work is not treasured by the clock
find time tor. go 'from shop to shop,
setting more than their share. How
ael'iousthe problem has become
in illustrated by the fact that many
factories — to quell the unrest
caused by the vision of "spivs"
ntedfing their pockets' with fags
".white legitimate workers are chain-
NormanBlctir
ed to their machines—now employ
"cigarette searchers" whose paid
job it is to go out in search /.f
cigarettes for their mates,
The United States
Ever since, as bfre Dooley used to
phrase it, "the first Wednesday after
the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in November" approxi-
mately ten thousand commentators,
real and alleged and including this
one, have been moaning to them-
seleves "Oh, why didn't I have the
nerve to go out on the limb and pre-
dict a Truman victory?"
However, we didn't; and if you're
looking for alibis you'll have to seek
sornswhere else—and not seek very
far either. The wails of some of
those public poll experts and na-
tional survey conductors would be
pitiful indeed to hear—if only they
hadn't been so doggone sure of
themselves.
So let's put it down as just "one
of those things". In politics, as in
Brooklyn Dodgers baseball circles,
anything can happen and generally
does. Personally I'm only making
two comments. The first—that it
seems rather humorous that the
only two widely -heard predictions
of a Democratic victory were those
of President Truman and—of all
things—the Russian radio.
And the second is that of all the
attempted explanations for what
happened I've read or listened to,
that of a young lad I know probably
comes closest to hitting the mark.
"I guess the American elections
went the way they did," he said,
"because there were more people
who wanted Mr. Truman than there
were wanted Mr. Dewey." ,
Germany
According to an American obser-
ver Allied authorities are confident
that even if the Russians maintain
their present attitude the air-lift will
be able to keep the western zones
of Berlin adequately supplied
throughout the winter, and this in
spite of expected rigorous flying
weather.
The same observer declined to
comment on conditions in the Soviet
zones but from other sources it is
learned that the Allied counter -
blockade is seriously interfering
with economic conditions in East-
ern Germany. As one spokesman
puts it, "Economic recovery in the
west stands out like a peak above
conditions in the eartern areas,"
On the other hand there are those
who believe that the Kremlin
strategists are prolonging the
necessity of the air-lift principally
for the effect it is bound to have on
Allied air -power. They know very
well that month after month of
heavy frieghting—in many cases,by
aircraft never intended for such
work—is bound to break many of
them down, and weaken many more.
They also know the replacements
are not rolling off the lines, either
in the States or in England, in any-
thing like the same numbers. So,
should the cold war ever develop
into a hot one, the Berlin blockade
will have served a highly useful pur-
pose.
Bat it may be that we are all
giving Messrs, Stalin, Molotov, et al
credit for far deeper thinking and
more Machiavellian strategy than
they've ever possessed, or ever will.
Anyway, at the time of writing, it
looks as though the western zones
of Berlin this Christmas will be
listening anxiously, not for the
carols of the herald Angels, but for
the zoom of Allied aircraft lugging,
fuel and food. Crazy sort of world,
Isn't it?

At a certain Pt, -- Club late one .
evening—or maybe it was early one
morning—a bunch of sports cob-
blers were whooping it up over
their malted milks and (Adv.) cokes
when the question arose as to what,
of all the hundreds of different
sorts of sporting events, is the rare -
est and most unique. Whereupon
somebody promptly answered "A
swimming meet at which no records
are broken."
* * *
This crack hardly raised a snick-
er as it is well known to one and
all that swimming records are a
dime a dozen and are busted with
great ease and regularity, How-
ever, during the past summer—on
August 30th, to be precise—au
English swimmer by the name of
Thomas Blower dui accomplish
something really unusual in the
water -crawling dodge. In case it
escaped your attention—as it did
ours until the other day—we shall
kindly tell you about it.
*
What the Stanley Cup is to hock-
ey—what the world series is to the
baseballists—what the Rose Bowl
means to .American footballers—
swimming the English channel rep-
resents to the long-distance crawl
and kick fraternity. First man to
turn the trick was Captain Matthew
Webb, of immortal memory, away
back in 1875. And in the almost
three-quarters of a century which
has since elapsed the feat has
been duplicated only some 26 times
—which isn't so very often when
you consider how many have jump-
ed and had to be pulled out.
As a natter of fact it would be
more nearly correct to say that
but four have actually "duplicated"
Captain Webb's feat, as the revered
Matthew web-footed it front Eng-
land to France, instead of Mother
way around, and that is the "hard
way" when it conies to Channel
swimming, just as a pair of threes
le the "hard way" of making a six
in another sport we needn't identi-
fy' * * *
It took Webb 21 lours and 45
minutes to make the journey and it
is estimated that he swans close to
40 miles on his way from Dover
Sands to Sandgatte Beach although
the air mileage i$ only around
twenty-one. Strong tides `that tug
and haul a swimmer off course make
up the difference. indeed when
Henry Sullivan—third swimmer and
first American to do it --made the
Channel swini lte:l.was. in the water'
27 hours and 23 minutes and it fs
estimated that be was obliged to
cover practically 45 miles. (Person-
ally, we'd prefer a rowboat or even
a raft.)
* * *
Tiraboschi, an Italian, was the
that to discover the easier route,
astonishing everybody by cutting
something silke six hours—that'll
right, hours, not minutes—off the
beat previous mark. And when Get'-;

took lloo highly of Meccld from the a.
trude Ederle, in 19A26, reached the
English sands ust 14 and a half
hours after setting out, it was plain
to be seen that anybody wishing to
make real speed should start from
France,
Miss Ederle had the advantage of
highly expert advice and was guid-
ed on a course which allowed her to
take advantage of no less than three
favorable tides. At the time of her
swim those who knew the Channel
best said that it was a very close
thing for muscular Gertrude and
that if she had taken as little as 10
minutes longer on the trip, the
chances are that she would never
have finished.
m , *
So now, at long last, we get back
to Thomas; Blower, the lad we start-
ed off to talk about. Hc's no strang-
er to Channel swimming. Eleven
years ago he successfully negotiated
the France to England course in 13
hours and 29 minutes. Then, last
year, he became the first human to
swim the 25 miles of chilly and tur-
bulent sea water separating Ireland
and Scotland,
* * *
That would be enough and even
more than enough for most of ns;
but there's no satisfying some folks.
So' this August the Nottingham
giant set off to follow in the wake
of Matthew Webb, Nor did large
Thomas fail, making it from Eng-
land to France in 15 hours, 25 min-
utes, the fastest ever known for a
swim in that diteection,
* *
What is more, when Blower set
out it was his intention to remain
'on the shores of La Belle France
only long enough to get himself re -
greased and—possibly—have his ig-
nition checked, Then he was going
to dive in gain make the return
trip to England,
e * *
Mr. Blower was dissuaded from
trying this latter on the advice of
experts who told him he was liable
to run into choppy seas and ex-
tremely.. heavy. going... However
Thomas says that he'll be back
again next year as he wants'to be
the first ever to swim the Channel
both. ways,. non-stop.. And.. we
heartily hope he makes it. He must
be quite i, swimmer and back in
the days or George Young, Ernst
Vierleoetter and the rest of them,
would have both fame and for-
tune. As it is novel it seems as if
he'd have to be satisfied with the
fame alone—and not much of it
at tht.t. "Born twenty years too
late" might be the way to sum 'up
the fate of Thomas Blower, swim -
mar extraordinary.
