Self Interest Cause Nations To Alter Policy
Chile announced last week, after four hours of congressional deliberation, her declaration of war against Japan—another Latin American late comer to the bandwagon of publicity claimed belligerence toward the Axis. She was preceded only a few days by Argentina's tardy announcement of her state of war with the Axis.
The military oligarchy of Argentina, although its program is in a state of chaos, has been determined to free the nation from the economic domination of Britain. For this reason they have been greatly influenced by German industrialists who have played an important part in helping the "neutral" Latin American country to achieve economic independence and stability. At the same time the Allies realized that the Nazis were imposing a Hitler-Mussolini-Franco way of life.
Long before the Chapultepec conference, the United States and other South American allies had warned Argentina that she must denounce her Nazi businessmen before she would be allowed to confer with her neighbors on postwar problems. At the recent conference in Mexico, the United Nations made it plain that they intended to keep the pressure on Argentina.
It is no coincidence, therefore, that Argentina now realizes the advisability of joining the Allies in their fight against the Axis at a time when her new enemy is staggering under the powerful blows of the United Nations. The Colonels have received the signal from Argentina's cattle owners, land barons, and industrialists who realize that the Nazis are disintegrating — that it's time to change horses—a policy shift identical to that of Franco who first congratulated Japan for her administration of the Philippines and then expressed horror at the atrocities revealed in Manila.

Rock Chalk Talk
By CATHY PILLER
Last weekend Thelma Stutz, A.D. Pi, found herself stuck on a street in Ottawa waiting for a tardy cab to carry her to the station. Just as she heard the train whistle in the distance, a car approached. She waved at the uniformed driver, threw her bags in, and urged him in very annoyed tones to hurry. After they reached the station and he had taken her bags out, she inquired as to how much she owed him. "Lady," the driver told her, "the police are always glad to do a good turn for a damsel in distress."

For awhile Fiji Rens McClure's girls wondered why, after two dates, Rens disappeared and then a few weeks later always returned. But now that they have found out he is only making people happy by cheerening up three girls in each sorority house and doesn't like to get off his well-organized schedule, the girls all feel better about this "God's gift to women."

After several days of playing tricks on their Pi Phi sisters, Sue Schwartz and Dottie Warren decided to stop all their mischief. Everything seemed to be forgiven and forgotten until suddenly the calm was broken Friday eve by an end-it-all-forever solution carried out by the whole chapter which ended in throwing both Sue and Dottie in Potter lake. The only one who won't agree that this was a successful feat is Pat Billingsly who got so carried away over the girls' welfare that she jumped in too!
Exactly three weeks ago, R. J. Atkinson put a fine faint snake in Bill Chestnut's bed. Not a word has been said about the incident thus far. The Phi Psi's are wondering if it just up and crawled away or if Bill could be so nasty as to end a long-lasting feud by letting it run loose in the Alpha Chi house.
