It's a good idea to have a supply of Barclay's always handy. And the cans make it very easy. Cans take up half the space of bottles, so you can now lay in twice the stock. And Barclay's in cans keeps perfectly-if your friends will let it.

HK AND THE WAR IN CHINA
SPLIT
London, February 15,
In the opinion of economic experts here, some of the greatest difficultios of the British recovery and of the whole. European Recovery Programme still lie ahead and may result in friction between Britain and the United States. British and United States officials in London,
foreseeing the hazards, desire that this fric- tion shall not seriously damage relations be- tween the two countries or impair the effec- tiveness of the recovery programme in its last two years.
An indication of the attitude of United States infficials wa given to the American Cham- ber of Commerce, in London. Julius C. Iolmes, United State Minister, said the two countrie should keep their eye on thei common goal despite occasional divergences of opinion.
W. John Kenney, chief of the Economic Co-operation Mission, expressed the hope that Congress | would enable Britnin to make per- manent the accomplishments of the first two years of the United
States uid programme.
