ERLENBORN Reports FROM CONGRESS The House Government Operations Committee, of which I am a member, has attracted considerable attention during the opening months of the f::Jth Congress. By law this is the Committee that serves as the fiscal watch-do1 of the Federal Government, ancl is charged with uncovering and correcting waste and inefficiency in the Executive Branch of the Federal Government. The Government Operations Committee receives hundreds of reports issued by the Comptroller General's office each year. Each outlines a specific case of waste and inefficiency. The Comptroller General's reports are some of the most res~ted documents issued by the Federal Government. They are noted to be totally non-partisan, and are directed at increased government efficiency and economy. Government Operations Committee members should give careful attention to these documents. Working with the Comptroller General's Office, the Committee has the unique opportunity to prompt the improvement of government services in a wide variety of agencies. I have been paying particular attention to the Comptroller General's reports. Because these are bi-partisan, they offer opportunity for bi-partisan action. Some of the topics of the reports issued during the last month include: -A $3.7 billion loss by the U. S. Government in our food relief program to Nationalist China. -An annual unneccessary expenditure of $270,000 by the Federal Government to reimburse Washington D.C. area banks for cashing government p a y r o ll checks. -A waste of $1.6 million by the Department of the Army through a purchase of a handful of diesel engine trucks. -A $2.5 million waste by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare for unneccessary ex- penses for automatic data machine rental. -A $1.3 million waste for the renting of housing for Federal Employees while other Federal Housing in the same area stands vacant. -A waste of $1.3 million in the Cincinnati, Ohio, Urban Renewal program. -Unneccessary expenditures totaling $2.6 million in Urban Renewal projects in San Francisco, Calif. The final report I will mention tells of excessive costs totalling $1 million incurred by the Department of the Army in the purchase of gunpowder. This particular problem of excessive costs is a continuing one because it involves a contract that never should have been agreed to. However, it was signed after inadequate price evaluation. The Comptroller General recommends a change in procedure to correct future similar losses. In this report I was interested to note that a single chemical company realized the $1 million overpayment in unearned prof1ts. Because there are similar situations regarding the supplying of other materials this seems to be an area that requires Congressional investigation. J.

Off The Record by Audrey Picking up where I left off recently, I am happy to report that lhe broadcaster who told local listeners they could go to their town meeting and vote to abolish Personal Property Taxes was defeated in his bid for a trustee's chair in Park Forest. We prefer candidates for public office who know whereof they speak before they speak. Incidentally, anyone, whether he is a public official or not, who advises you to disregard your personal property tax bill and not pay it, is giving bad advice. You could have a lien placed on your property and you might not even know about it. It is never good advice to tell someone to ignore the law, even an unpopular one. Let's take another look at PPT. What's bad about it? Primarily, that it is so inequitably collected. You pay it -your neighbor throws it in the waste basket. Sam pays a pittance on his two gorgeous carsJoe pays a small fortune on his old heap that just barely runs. As a people we dislike anything that is unfair. It makes us all dishonest. If we declared truthfuly all personal property including money in the bank and other hidden assets, the tax would be confiscatory, so we declare a token amount on our cars and home furnishings. What's good about it? The money it brings in is necessary to help run our schools, village, county and township governments. Real estate taxes can't do the job alone. You and I, the individual taxpayer, contribute only a small portion of the total amount of funds collected in PPT. The lion's share is paid by a handful of public utilities. Abolish the PPT and you do away with this revenue that we "little people" don't pay. Let's face another fact. Taxes are not going to go down. You can count the number of taxes that have been permanently reduced by the hairs on the left hind leg of an ostrich. ' What, then, can we do about our total tax picture? Three answers have been suggested. 1. Reduce spending. This is virtually impossible in a day of burgeoning populations and increased demands for services of all kinds. If anyone has any constructive suggestions for cutting fat out of local budgets, I'm sure the various governing bodies would be glad to have their advice. 2. Bring in more industry. The mere thought of industry here is enough to make the blood run cold for many of our residents. Nevertheless, the time is fast approaching, if it is not already here, when we must have industry to help carry the tax load, or face an alarming spiral of rising real estate and PP taxes. The concensus of most of those who favor industry, I would venture to say, is that there are many kinds of light industry and commercial ventures which would fit into our picture nicely without undo fuss. 3. Collect delinquent taxes, both real and personal. Unfortunately, this is <Casier said than done, for a variety of reasons, many of them having to do with the costs of such collections. Our own State's Attorney campaigned for office last fall on a platform of abolishing PP and, when in office, proceeded to dismiss all delinquent PPT cases then pending, on which considerable time and money had already been spent. He is apparently proceeding a g a i n s t current delinquencies, but under the circumstances doubts as to how much he means business are understandable. For the sake of argument, let's say we can get the state legislature to do away with PPT. What then? Tax reform? Aha, you say. Now she's finally getting to the nub of the problem. As Farm Bureau members keep reminding us, our antiquated tax system in Illinois is based on a revenue article written in 1870. That's old, brother. As a matter of fact a proposal to amend the Illinois Constitution enabling the legislature to provide for an equitable distribution of the tax burden for the state and local governments was introduced in the Illinois General Ass.embly early this month. With the proposed amendment, which may be submitted to the voters in the 1966 general election, lawmakers could tailor a more flexible and up-to-date tax structure for the state. Another bill currently in the hopper provides a common sense method, on a permissive basis, for counties of 100,000 or more but less than 500,000 population to have quad11ennial assessments on a four district, staggered basis. This was introduced, I believe, by our own Representative Bob Blair, of Park Forest, who thinks it might help to ease the kind of jam that BAND CALENDAR ORDER BLANK I wish to order ...... .............. C-M Music Association Birthday Calendars at SOc each. put our county's property assessments and tax collecttions into a tailspin last year The bill had its first reading in the Senate April 7 and has the endorsement of the Taxpayer's Federation of Illinois. In my opinion it's a good step in the right direction. I thoroughly agree tax reform is badly needed. But what kind of tax reform? A state income tax? Some kind of classification of property for taxing purposes? Are there drawbacks to these proposals? Ay, there's the rub. Take a state income tax, for example. It would bring more money into the state treasury but it would not help out the counties, townships and municipalities unless the collections were returned to the communities from which payments were made. How do you do this at low administrative cost? What about those who live here and work in Indiana, where they are already paying Indiana state income tax? A revenue act that would classify real estate into different groups for valuation purposes would help some and adversely aff.ect others. For every group on which the valuation is lowered, others would be raised a like amount. There is no "new" tax source. It still must come somehow, from "we, the people." If all this sounds as if I'm confused it's because I am. But all I'm really trying to say is this: Let's not be so eager for tax reform that we neglect our research into all angles of any new proposal. As long as we're going to do the job over completely, for heaven's sake, let's do the job completely right.

County Auxiliary Police Very Active And Dedicated Will County's Auxiliary Pollee Force is an active, progressive unit with the same authority held by the regular members of the sheriff's staff. I The auxiliary department moved another step forward with the acquisition of a new station wagon. In the case of emergency, it can be used by the regular staff. The latest addition is used primarily for general patrol. It was acquired through contributions and appropriations. The auxiliary was formed first in Frankfort some eight years ago to help relieve the county police force of some of its work load and to give all parts of the county more adequate police protection. The auxiliary was made a county-wide association by Sheriff Joseph R. Trizna on Oct. 20, 1963, with the sanction of the county board of supervisors. The auxiliary is fast-growing. Membership now stands at about 60. It is the aim of Trizna and Lt. John Shelly, who directs the auxiliary, to have at least four auxiliary members in each of the 24 townships of the county. Not just any individual can become an auxiliary police officer. The by-laws for membership require that a man must live in the county for at least one year before he can be considered. Further, the by laws require the sheriff to give his approval to all memberships. Acceptance of a member depends on the individual's past record and conduct. The organization is non-political, non-sectarian, and race, religion or creed are not considered. Membership is permanent and cannot be revoked because of political beliefs. The auxiliary members take their orders from the sheriff or the man in his office who is assigned to work with the auxiliary. The sheriff and Lt. Shelly meet with the auxiliary every second Wednesday. Discussions center around means of improving the department. Once a month training sessions are held in Joliet. The men report for these sessions in full uniform. Experts in various fields address them including those working closely in investigations dealings with narcotics, juvenile delinquency, t r a f f i c, murder, burglaries, robberies, illegal entry into the country by aliens and the state game warden. Techniques of handling firearms have been demonstrated. The auxiliary officers patrol the county regularly. They have assisted in apprehending a ·number of criminals when they were on hand at the right time. The auxiliary assists in handling traffic at the county fair at Peotone. Ranks have been set up to give recognition to members who take a keen interest in the work and are active over a period of years. There are lieutenants and sergeants in the department. In emphasizing that they are volunteers Lt. Shelly said a member automatically can be expelled from the auxiliary for accepting any type of gratuity. Thanks to these men, the outlying areas of the county now have more and better protection than ever before. The role of the auxiliary officer is growing in scope and in importance.

Every little bit of roasted meats-pork, beef, lamb, and veal-has a lot of 1lavor which can add enjoyment to many main dishes. A case in point is this recipe for Oriental Fried Rice. Only % cup of prepared meat is :required-yet there is enough flavor to satisfy four hungry diners-six not-so-hungry eaters. The use of rice makes this possible. Rice, bland in flavor and high in nutrition, combines well with almost any well seasoned food. In Oriental Fried Rice, the rice is combined with a bit of roasted .pork, celery, green onions, bean sprouts, and seasonings to make an easy-to-prepare and even easier-to-eat main dish. Serve Oriental Fried Rice with a salad made of Chinese cabbage and pickled beets. Add some sesame seed rolls and a dessert of fresh fruits tossed with candied ginger.

They hav<e only played one game and are around nine games behind their schedule. Yet they have a winning season so far as Denny Peters and the Warriors blanked Providence last Wednesday 4-0 on two hits. Peters, Larry Pilkins, and Ron Levine each had a turn at the pitcher's mound. Peters, who pitched four innings and struck out six men, also helped himself win the game in the first inning when he scored the first run off of Bruce Butchko's hit. Saturday's game against Beecher was called off, as many other games have been, on account of rain. Paul And Ringo At Crete Elementary Mr. Lindsey's fifth grade class has an experiment with two white rats. They are both males. Their names are Paul and Ringo. The experiment shows the value of milk. The rats are fed the same food except Ringo gets milk and Paul gets water. Every week a batch of food is mixed even including cod liver oil. When the rats were first received they were checked to see if they were well nourished. by using the following chart.

Mr. Weeks also indicated his willingness to assist Mr. Martin in any way, should he be called upon. Following Weeks' statement, Clerk Ronald Christopher commended the retiring mayor and trustees and all board members concurred in making the vote of commendation an entry in the minutes of the meeting. Finally a resolution was passed naming the new village president and trustees on the basis of the official canvass of the election results. They are: President, Harold Martin; trustees, Edward Rubottom, Bill Bruin and Charles Seehausen Jr. Following t h e swearing-in by Clerk Christopher, these gentlemen took their seats and Mr. Weeks, trustees Berbig, Oltman and Schaefer retired. New Mayor Martin told the assembled board and audience that since he was new he would need a lot of help from the board and the whole village. He inviterl all those interested to come to village board meetings. A bond of $3,000 for Mayor Martin was approved by the board. Johanna Robe and Ormand Henry are the sureties for the bond. A number of pending board matters were held over until the next meeting to allow new board members and the new village president to become familiar with them . Among these was a letter from the Plan Commission regarding a proposed new development of homes, apartments and shopping area of Edward Maker's; plus a proposal of Edward Rippe for two large apartment buildings on the outskirts of Crete, which is pending before the Will County Zoning Board. No trustee assignments were made nor were any changes in employee personnel announced. At last the flood of words about flood condrtions broke through and the remainder of the meeting was devoted to this problem. Mayor Martin asked Attorney Wallace Solum to advise the residents of what is being done in the matter. Mr. Solum told the assemblage that Mulford Engineering is in the process of preparing a detailed report calling for a village-wide improvement program including paved streets, curbs, gutters and storm sewern. The problem is a total one, he noted, calling for action throughout the village not only to alleviate temporary flooding conditions now, but to provide for future growth of the village. The main cause of recent troubles, he said, is that rain water and excess surface water go into the sanitary sewers through illegal connections, causing backup of 'l:he sanitary sewers. These sewers are adequate at present to handle the sewage intended to flow through them, but the storm water which should be in the storm sewers is clogging the sanitary sewers. The report from the engineers has been workd on for the last several months and can be expectedly shortly. Estimated cost of t he entire project is about $1 million. It would probably take two years to complete the work and some of the streets would be torn up for varying periods during the construction. The program will have to be voted on in a public referendum and would probably be paid through special assessments apporti'Oned at so much a foot of property, depending on which areas would benefit the most. The village board authorized the preparation of the engineer's report last October. Several of the residents with flooding problems stated that this long range plan was fine but they wanted relief now. Superintendent of Public Works Dick Wright announced that the rodding of sewers would be resumed as soon as the wea1ther dries up sufficiently for the men to get in there and do it. He was also authorized by the board to send a man and a pump to the area every time it rains to stay there pumping until the rain stops. , One resident asked why people cannot be told that t\leir storm water is draining into the sanitary 1 7 Lincolnshire Golfers Plan Luncheon And Thursday, April 29, 1965 TIIE RECORD, CRETE, ILL.

Illinois �Award Banquet Honors ! Basketball All-Stars Steger Kiwanis Club To Explain Sports Program All parents of boys and girls participating in sports programs are invited to a meeting to be held Tuesday, May 4, 7:30 p.m. at the Congregational Church, Steger. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the operation and organization of these programs. In order to continue these programs effectively we must have the help of the parents physically, not financially. We hope to enlist the aid of the parents and citizens by forming their own committee and actively taking part in such -phases as formulation and enforcement of rules, managing and coaching teams, umpiring of games and general operations. It is our thought that the parents committee can meet with the Kiwanis committee to expand and preserve the good that these program have done in the past and continue to follow the Little League and Kiwanis rules--safety, sportsmanship and cooperation. Please plan to attend this meeting.

Lions to Discuss Pre-School Vision Screening Program Members of the Mone and Crete Lions Clubs will discuss a preschool vision screening program at a meeting to be held at Mikuce Restaurant on May 6 at 8:00. The film-strip "Amblyopia" will be shown and Mrs. Marion Bracken and Mrs. Alvena Dyer, Public Health Health Nurese from the Will County Health Department, will answer questions about the proposed program. The Health Department plans to make vision screening programs for 3¥2 to 5 year olds available to interested communities. The purpose of rthe program is to discover visual defects at an age when corrections can be made more easily. Conditions that the screening program is geared to detect are nearsightedness, crosseye and amblyopia. Amblyopia or "lazy eye disease," is a condition in which a child does not see equally well with both eyes. The condition may result in the weaker eye ceasing to develop because rthe brain does not want to accept the double image. If the condition is not discovered and treated before the child is 6 years old, chances for recovery of the weak eye are poor. Cross eye is a condition in which an eye does not focus on the object at which an individual is looking. Sometimes the eye is crossed so slightly that it can only be detected through a screening test or an eye examination. The defect can usually be corrected thru early detection and treatment. A special vision screening test will be used by the two Will County Hea!Jth Department screening technicians who will conduct the program. Because of the age of the child and the nature of the test, a set of training cards and instructions will be given to parents at the time of registration. These cards are used to play a game which will teach the child how to identify the symbols used in the test. The proposed vision screening program will be conducted this summer in Monee and Crete if a local organization can be found to sponsor the program.

Celebrate 50th Wedding Anniversary Announce Some Features For State Fair Program Antique farm machinery will be displayed in its own quarters at the Illinois State Fair this year, Gov. Otto Kerner disclosed in a speech before the Farm Equipment Club recently. The new display will be known as the Farm Museum and will be housed in the Agriculture Building just south of the Farmarama Building. Following a pattern established by the highly successful Farmarama, and last year's Seedarama, this year Chemarama will introduce the fairgoer to the farm chemical and fertilizer industry, Gov. Kerner said. Export of farm products takes increasing precedent over any other distribution of American farm products, said the governor. Population is gaining faster than food production and large sections of the world cannot now feed their people. Both economics and humanitarianism call for more food exports. Farm chemicals and fertilizers will play an increasingly important role in the future, as will bigger and better farm machinery, the governor told the farm equipment representatives. Grandstand stage attractions for the 1965 Illinois State Fair should provide variety enough to please all age groups, Franklin Rust, general manager of the exposition, said last week. Completion of contracts for several attractions was announced. The 1965 State Fair will open on Friday, Aug. 13, and continue through Sunday, Aug. 22. Highlight of the evening stage shows will be the appearance of the J"ing Family-a 36-member grour1 consisting of the King Sisters, the King Cousins, the King Chiidren, Alvino Rey and others. The King Family is presently appearing on a regular Saturday night television show. Their appearance here will be their first before a State Fair. Another feature attraction will be AI Hirt, the jazz king of New Orleans. Hirt will head a special variety show on Thursday and Friday evenings, Aug. 19 and 20. Lome Greene, leading national television personality, has been selected to star in the final grandstand show. Franklin Rust, general manager of the fair, said the co-star of the TV show "Bonanza" will head up a two-hour variety show on Saturday evening, Aug. 21. Although known principally for his TV appearance in the one-hour color series each week, Greene has been a newscaster and state and radio personality for more than 20 years. · He has appeared in numerous motion pictures and Board Photo Recipes like this appeal not only to teenagers but also to new brides.

ERLENBORN Reports FROM CONGRESS The House Government Operations Committee, of which I am a member, has attracted considerable attention during the opening months of the f::Jth Congress. By law this is the Committee that serves as the fiscal watch-do1 of the Federal Government, ancl is charged with uncovering and correcting waste and inefficiency in the Executive Branch of the Federal Government. The Government Operations Committee receives hundreds of reports issued by the Comptroller General's office each year. Each outlines a specific case of waste and inefficiency. The Comptroller General's reports are some of the most res~ted documents issued by the Federal Government. They are noted to be totally non-partisan, and are directed at increased government efficiency and economy. Government Operations Committee members should give careful attention to these documents. Working with the Comptroller General's Office, the Committee has the unique opportunity to prompt the improvement of government services in a wide variety of agencies. I have been paying particular attention to the Comptroller General's reports. Because these are bi-partisan, they offer opportunity for bi-partisan action. Some of the topics of the reports issued during the last month include: -A $3.7 billion loss by the U. S. Government in our food relief program to Nationalist China. -An annual unneccessary expenditure of $270,000 by the Federal Government to reimburse Washington D.C. area banks for cashing government p a y r o ll checks. -A waste of $1.6 million by the Department of the Army through a purchase of a handful of diesel engine trucks. -A $2.5 million waste by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare for unneccessary ex- penses for automatic data machine rental. -A $1.3 million waste for the renting of housing for Federal Employees while other Federal Housing in the same area stands vacant. -A waste of $1.3 million in the Cincinnati, Ohio, Urban Renewal program. -Unneccessary expenditures totaling $2.6 million in Urban Renewal projects in San Francisco, Calif. The final report I will mention tells of excessive costs totalling $1 million incurred by the Department of the Army in the purchase of gunpowder. This particular problem of excessive costs is a continuing one because it involves a contract that never should have been agreed to. However, it was signed after inadequate price evaluation. The Comptroller General recommends a change in procedure to correct future similar losses. In this report I was interested to note that a single chemical company realized the $1 million overpayment in unearned prof1ts. Because there are similar situations regarding the supplying of other materials this seems to be an area that requires Congressional investigation. J.

Commonwealth Edison Company will be the name of the electric company serving 368 northern Illinois communities, as well as Chicago, effective July 1 Gilbert K. :rtardacre, Southern division vice-president, announced recently that the Public Service Company name will be discontinued as Edison service is uniformly established over the company's 11,000 square mile service area.

Hardacre said Edison service in this locality will continue to be administered from the company's division headquarters in Joliet, and from district and area installations in Harvey, Bradley and Streator. Public Service Company (of Northern Illinois) was incorporated in 1911. It became a subsidiary of Commonwealth Edison in 1937 and was merged into Edison in 1953.

Off The Record by Audrey Picking up where I left off recently, I am happy to report that lhe broadcaster who told local listeners they could go to their town meeting and vote to abolish Personal Property Taxes was defeated in his bid for a trustee's chair in Park Forest. We prefer candidates for public office who know whereof they speak before they speak. Incidentally, anyone, whether he is a public official or not, who advises you to disregard your personal property tax bill and not pay it, is giving bad advice. You could have a lien placed on your property and you might not even know about it. It is never good advice to tell someone to ignore the law, even an unpopular one. Let's take another look at PPT. What's bad about it? Primarily, that it is so inequitably collected. You pay it -your neighbor throws it in the waste basket. Sam pays a pittance on his two gorgeous carsJoe pays a small fortune on his old heap that just barely runs. As a people we dislike anything that is unfair. It makes us all dishonest. If we declared truthfuly all personal property including money in the bank and other hidden assets, the tax would be confiscatory, so we declare a token amount on our cars and home furnishings. What's good about it? The money it brings in is necessary to help run our schools, village, county and township governments. Real estate taxes can't do the job alone. You and I, the individual taxpayer, contribute only a small portion of the total amount of funds collected in PPT. The lion's share is paid by a handful of public utilities. Abolish the PPT and you do away with this revenue that we "little people" don't pay. Let's face another fact. Taxes are not going to go down. You can count the number of taxes that have been permanently reduced by the hairs on the left hind leg of an ostrich. ' What, then, can we do about our total tax picture? Three answers have been suggested. 1. Reduce spending. This is virtually impossible in a day of burgeoning populations and increased demands for services of all kinds. If anyone has any constructive suggestions for cutting fat out of local budgets, I'm sure the various governing bodies would be glad to have their advice. 2. Bring in more industry. The mere thought of industry here is enough to make the blood run cold for many of our residents. Nevertheless, the time is fast approaching, if it is not already here, when we must have industry to help carry the tax load, or face an alarming spiral of rising real estate and PP taxes. The concensus of most of those who favor industry, I would venture to say, is that there are many kinds of light industry and commercial ventures which would fit into our picture nicely without undo fuss. 3. Collect delinquent taxes, both real and personal. Unfortunately, this is <Casier said than done, for a variety of reasons, many of them having to do with the costs of such collections. Our own State's Attorney campaigned for office last fall on a platform of abolishing PP and, when in office, proceeded to dismiss all delinquent PPT cases then pending, on which considerable time and money had already been spent. He is apparently proceeding a g a i n s t current delinquencies, but under the circumstances doubts as to how much he means business are understandable. For the sake of argument, let's say we can get the state legislature to do away with PPT. What then? Tax reform? Aha, you say. Now she's finally getting to the nub of the problem. As Farm Bureau members keep reminding us, our antiquated tax system in Illinois is based on a revenue article written in 1870. That's old, brother. As a matter of fact a proposal to amend the Illinois Constitution enabling the legislature to provide for an equitable distribution of the tax burden for the state and local governments was introduced in the Illinois General Ass.embly early this month. With the proposed amendment, which may be submitted to the voters in the 1966 general election, lawmakers could tailor a more flexible and up-to-date tax structure for the state. Another bill currently in the hopper provides a common sense method, on a permissive basis, for counties of 100,000 or more but less than 500,000 population to have quad11ennial assessments on a four district, staggered basis. This was introduced, I believe, by our own Representative Bob Blair, of Park Forest, who thinks it might help to ease the kind of jam that BAND CALENDAR ORDER BLANK I wish to order ...... .............. C-M Music Association Birthday Calendars at SOc each. put our county's property assessments and tax collecttions into a tailspin last year The bill had its first reading in the Senate April 7 and has the endorsement of the Taxpayer's Federation of Illinois. In my opinion it's a good step in the right direction. I thoroughly agree tax reform is badly needed. But what kind of tax reform? A state income tax? Some kind of classification of property for taxing purposes? Are there drawbacks to these proposals? Ay, there's the rub. Take a state income tax, for example. It would bring more money into the state treasury but it would not help out the counties, townships and municipalities unless the collections were returned to the communities from which payments were made. How do you do this at low administrative cost? What about those who live here and work in Indiana, where they are already paying Indiana state income tax? A revenue act that would classify real estate into different groups for valuation purposes would help some and adversely aff.ect others. For every group on which the valuation is lowered, others would be raised a like amount. There is no "new" tax source. It still must come somehow, from "we, the people." If all this sounds as if I'm confused it's because I am. But all I'm really trying to say is this: Let's not be so eager for tax reform that we neglect our research into all angles of any new proposal. As long as we're going to do the job over completely, for heaven's sake, let's do the job completely right.

County Auxiliary Police Very Active And Dedicated Will County's Auxiliary Pollee Force is an active, progressive unit with the same authority held by the regular members of the sheriff's staff. I The auxiliary department moved another step forward with the acquisition of a new station wagon. In the case of emergency, it can be used by the regular staff. The latest addition is used primarily for general patrol. It was acquired through contributions and appropriations. The auxiliary was formed first in Frankfort some eight years ago to help relieve the county police force of some of its work load and to give all parts of the county more adequate police protection. The auxiliary was made a county-wide association by Sheriff Joseph R. Trizna on Oct. 20, 1963, with the sanction of the county board of supervisors. The auxiliary is fast-growing. Membership now stands at about 60. It is the aim of Trizna and Lt. John Shelly, who directs the auxiliary, to have at least four auxiliary members in each of the 24 townships of the county. Not just any individual can become an auxiliary police officer. The by-laws for membership require that a man must live in the county for at least one year before he can be considered. Further, the by laws require the sheriff to give his approval to all memberships. Acceptance of a member depends on the individual's past record and conduct. The organization is non-political, non-sectarian, and race, religion or creed are not considered. Membership is permanent and cannot be revoked because of political beliefs. The auxiliary members take their orders from the sheriff or the man in his office who is assigned to work with the auxiliary. The sheriff and Lt. Shelly meet with the auxiliary every second Wednesday. Discussions center around means of improving the department. Once a month training sessions are held in Joliet. The men report for these sessions in full uniform. Experts in various fields address them including those working closely in investigations dealings with narcotics, juvenile delinquency, t r a f f i c, murder, burglaries, robberies, illegal entry into the country by aliens and the state game warden. Techniques of handling firearms have been demonstrated. The auxiliary officers patrol the county regularly. They have assisted in apprehending a ·number of criminals when they were on hand at the right time. The auxiliary assists in handling traffic at the county fair at Peotone. Ranks have been set up to give recognition to members who take a keen interest in the work and are active over a period of years. There are lieutenants and sergeants in the department. In emphasizing that they are volunteers Lt. Shelly said a member automatically can be expelled from the auxiliary for accepting any type of gratuity. Thanks to these men, the outlying areas of the county now have more and better protection than ever before. The role of the auxiliary officer is growing in scope and in importance.

Rice Council Photo The thrifty homemaker uses every last piece of roast meateven if there is less than a cup of the meat left. Every little bit of roasted meats-pork, beef, lamb, and veal-has a lot of 1lavor which can add enjoyment to many main dishes. A case in point is this recipe for Oriental Fried Rice. Only % cup of prepared meat is :required-yet there is enough flavor to satisfy four hungry diners-six not-so-hungry eaters. The use of rice makes this possible. Rice, bland in flavor and high in nutrition, combines well with almost any well seasoned food. In Oriental Fried Rice, the rice is combined with a bit of roasted .pork, celery, green onions, bean sprouts, and seasonings to make an easy-to-prepare and even easier-to-eat main dish. Serve Oriental Fried Rice with a salad made of Chinese cabbage and pickled beets. Add some sesame seed rolls and a dessert of fresh fruits tossed with candied ginger. And to keep the Oriental flavor, let tea be the beverage of the meal.

They hav<e only played one game and are around nine games behind their schedule. Yet they have a winning season so far as Denny Peters and the Warriors blanked Providence last Wednesday 4-0 on two hits. Peters, Larry Pilkins, and Ron Levine each had a turn at the pitcher's mound. Peters, who pitched four innings and struck out six men, also helped himself win the game in the first inning when he scored the first run off of Bruce Butchko's hit. Saturday's game against Beecher was called off, as many other games have been, on account of rain. Paul And Ringo At Crete Elementary Mr. Lindsey's fifth grade class has an experiment with two white rats. They are both males. Their names are Paul and Ringo. The experiment shows the value of milk. The rats are fed the same food except Ringo gets milk and Paul gets water. Every week a batch of food is mixed even including cod liver oil. When the rats were first received they were checked to see if they were well nourished. by using the following chart. A well nourished rat-1) Clean, smooth, glossy fur. 2) Smooth tail, free from roughness. 3)Bright pink eyes, pink nose, pinkish ears, feet, and tail. 4) Clean and tidy habits. 5) Quick alert movements, good muscle control. and 6) Easily handled and good natured, and firm nails. Now Paul is starting to look like this: 1) Shaggy dull possibly thin fur. 2) Rough dry, scaly ears, feet and tail. 3) Eyes not clear. 4) Pinched look in face. 5) Whiskers not long and sharp, possibly dirty. 6) Restless, irritable, and cross. 7) Breathing difficulty, suceptible to sniffles. and 8) Possibly soft nails. This is the sixth week for the experiment which is scheduled to last from six to eight weeks. Hope Lutheran Calls Rev. R. H. Bekemeier chair of the assistant pastorate at Hope.

Mr. Weeks also indicated his willingness to assist Mr. Martin in any way, should he be called upon. Following Weeks' statement, Clerk Ronald Christopher commended the retiring mayor and trustees and all board members concurred in making the vote of commendation an entry in the minutes of the meeting. Finally a resolution was passed naming the new village president and trustees on the basis of the official canvass of the election results. They are: President, Harold Martin; trustees, Edward Rubottom, Bill Bruin and Charles Seehausen Jr. Following t h e swearing-in by Clerk Christopher, these gentlemen took their seats and Mr. Weeks, trustees Berbig, Oltman and Schaefer retired. New Mayor Martin told the assembled board and audience that since he was new he would need a lot of help from the board and the whole village. He inviterl all those interested to come to village board meetings. A bond of $3,000 for Mayor Martin was approved by the board. Johanna Robe and Ormand Henry are the sureties for the bond. A number of pending board matters were held over until the next meeting to allow new board members and the new village president to become familiar with them . Among these was a letter from the Plan Commission regarding a proposed new development of homes, apartments and shopping area of Edward Maker's; plus a proposal of Edward Rippe for two large apartment buildings on the outskirts of Crete, which is pending before the Will County Zoning Board. No trustee assignments were made nor were any changes in employee personnel announced. At last the flood of words about flood condrtions broke through and the remainder of the meeting was devoted to this problem. Mayor Martin asked Attorney Wallace Solum to advise the residents of what is being done in the matter. Mr. Solum told the assemblage that Mulford Engineering is in the process of preparing a detailed report calling for a village-wide improvement program including paved streets, curbs, gutters and storm sewern. The problem is a total one, he noted, calling for action throughout the village not only to alleviate temporary flooding conditions now, but to provide for future growth of the village. The main cause of recent troubles, he said, is that rain water and excess surface water go into the sanitary sewers through illegal connections, causing backup of 'l:he sanitary sewers. These sewers are adequate at present to handle the sewage intended to flow through them, but the storm water which should be in the storm sewers is clogging the sanitary sewers. The report from the engineers has been workd on for the last several months and can be expectedly shortly. Estimated cost of t he entire project is about $1 million. It would probably take two years to complete the work and some of the streets would be torn up for varying periods during the construction. The program will have to be voted on in a public referendum and would probably be paid through special assessments apporti'Oned at so much a foot of property, depending on which areas would benefit the most. The village board authorized the preparation of the engineer's report last October. Several of the residents with flooding problems stated that this long range plan was fine but they wanted relief now. Superintendent of Public Works Dick Wright announced that the rodding of sewers would be resumed as soon as the wea1ther dries up sufficiently for the men to get in there and do it. He was also authorized by the board to send a man and a pump to the area every time it rains to stay there pumping until the rain stops. , One resident asked why people cannot be told that t\leir storm water is draining into the sanitary 1 7 Lincolnshire Golfers Plan Luncheon And Thursday, April 29, 1965 TIIE RECORD, CRETE, ILL.

The Larsens and Miguel attended the dinner held at Hubbard Trail Junior High School for all the visiting students and their hosts. If all the students proved to be as interesting and charming as Miguel was, I'm sure this was a very pleasant weekend for many families of this area.

Illinois �Award Banquet Honors ! Basketball All-Stars Steger Kiwanis Club To Explain Sports Program All parents of boys and girls participating in sports programs are invited to a meeting to be held Tuesday, May 4, 7:30 p.m. at the Congregational Church, Steger. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the operation and organization of these programs. In order to continue these programs effectively we must have the help of the parents physically, not financially. We hope to enlist the aid of the parents and citizens by forming their own committee and actively taking part in such -phases as formulation and enforcement of rules, managing and coaching teams, umpiring of games and general operations. It is our thought that the parents committee can meet with the Kiwanis committee to expand and preserve the good that these program have done in the past and continue to follow the Little League and Kiwanis rules--safety, sportsmanship and cooperation. Please plan to attend this meeting.

Lions to Discuss Pre-School Vision Screening Program Members of the Mone and Crete Lions Clubs will discuss a preschool vision screening program at a meeting to be held at Mikuce Restaurant on May 6 at 8:00. The film-strip "Amblyopia" will be shown and Mrs. Marion Bracken and Mrs. Alvena Dyer, Public Health Health Nurese from the Will County Health Department, will answer questions about the proposed program. The Health Department plans to make vision screening programs for 3¥2 to 5 year olds available to interested communities. The purpose of rthe program is to discover visual defects at an age when corrections can be made more easily. Conditions that the screening program is geared to detect are nearsightedness, crosseye and amblyopia. Amblyopia or "lazy eye disease," is a condition in which a child does not see equally well with both eyes. The condition may result in the weaker eye ceasing to develop because rthe brain does not want to accept the double image. If the condition is not discovered and treated before the child is 6 years old, chances for recovery of the weak eye are poor. Cross eye is a condition in which an eye does not focus on the object at which an individual is looking. Sometimes the eye is crossed so slightly that it can only be detected through a screening test or an eye examination. The defect can usually be corrected thru early detection and treatment. A special vision screening test will be used by the two Will County Hea!Jth Department screening technicians who will conduct the program. Because of the age of the child and the nature of the test, a set of training cards and instructions will be given to parents at the time of registration. These cards are used to play a game which will teach the child how to identify the symbols used in the test. The proposed vision screening program will be conducted this summer in Monee and Crete if a local organization can be found to sponsor the program.

Celebrate 50th Wedding Anniversary Announce Some Features For State Fair Program Antique farm machinery will be displayed in its own quarters at the Illinois State Fair this year, Gov. Otto Kerner disclosed in a speech before the Farm Equipment Club recently. The new display will be known as the Farm Museum and will be housed in the Agriculture Building just south of the Farmarama Building. Following a pattern established by the highly successful Farmarama, and last year's Seedarama, this year Chemarama will introduce the fairgoer to the farm chemical and fertilizer industry, Gov. Kerner said. Export of farm products takes increasing precedent over any other distribution of American farm products, said the governor. Population is gaining faster than food production and large sections of the world cannot now feed their people. Both economics and humanitarianism call for more food exports. Farm chemicals and fertilizers will play an increasingly important role in the future, as will bigger and better farm machinery, the governor told the farm equipment representatives. Grandstand stage attractions for the 1965 Illinois State Fair should provide variety enough to please all age groups, Franklin Rust, general manager of the exposition, said last week. Completion of contracts for several attractions was announced. The 1965 State Fair will open on Friday, Aug. 13, and continue through Sunday, Aug. 22. Highlight of the evening stage shows will be the appearance of the J"ing Family-a 36-member grour1 consisting of the King Sisters, the King Cousins, the King Chiidren, Alvino Rey and others. The King Family is presently appearing on a regular Saturday night television show. Their appearance here will be their first before a State Fair. Another feature attraction will be AI Hirt, the jazz king of New Orleans. Hirt will head a special variety show on Thursday and Friday evenings, Aug. 19 and 20. Lome Greene, leading national television personality, has been selected to star in the final grandstand show. Franklin Rust, general manager of the fair, said the co-star of the TV show "Bonanza" will head up a two-hour variety show on Saturday evening, Aug. 21. Although known principally for his TV appearance in the one-hour color series each week, Greene has been a newscaster and state and radio personality for more than 20 years. · He has appeared in numerous motion pictures and Board Photo Recipes like this appeal not only to teenagers but also to new brides.

PRESIDI<)NT DAWES HAS V ICE carried his fight for revisior. of senate rules Into the Southland. Last he add1·essed· the Associated Industries of Alabama In Birmingham, and told his hearers that ''the South Is too intelligent to be deluded into the Idea that to protect it against another Force bill the right at times should be given to a minority, or even one senator, to throw a monkey wrench into the !egi~lative machinery of the common government. An!'werlng critics of the reform campaign, he said that unlimited debate "had not checked multiplicity of laws but lmd resulted In their passage without proper consideration." lie referred to the Force hill, beaten by a filibuster, as "a wrong measure" which would have been repenled If pnssed. This isolated nrgumeut of proponents of pr ·en t rules, he declared, "as an effort Intended "to affect the great intelligent South nnd to- re,·tve those unhappy Issues which have died alike in the North and South." He said he was a~lring only that the minority, "p1·otected as it Is by the checks and balances of the Constitution, shall not exercise veto r~hts over the will of a majority when that majority desires only to exercise its constitutional rights of legislation." Senator Underwood, who prereded General Dawes on the platform, praised his efforts to procure rules that would limit debate in the senate. Opposition to the proposal, he saU, comes from two sources: From some of the senators themselves, "because t11ey enjoy debate an<l like unlimited discussion," and from "those persons outside the senate who are interested in special legislation or, more particularly, In pren•nting legislation to which they are opposed." wee~ pUBLICATION by neo;n:papers of Income tax: lists Is declared lawful by the Supreme Court of the United States.

NOTWITII~TANDING their reported victories over the Rlffians, the French are having n strenuous time In Morocco. Abd-el-Krim hangs on like a leach and is said to be preparing hiP forces for a great offensive, and meaowM!e the French troops have been drawn back hehind n defensive line and are constructing powerful fortifications. There were gtories, unconfirmed, that France and Spain were ready to negotiate a pence with the Riff chieftain. The truth, as it camE out In a heated debate In the French pnrl!arnent, seems to be that Abd-elKrlm sent an emissary to M.arshn.l Lyantey to endeaYor to reach an agreement as to the frontier. The Rlffians are short of food supplies because the French have estahllshed an effective blockade. But they are planning to raid the Ouergha region. It is said a large body of trained German officers is on Its way to serve under Krlm. The French Communists insist that peace must be made with the Riffians, and when the chamber of deputies was called on to vote a credit of 30,000,000 francs for the campaign they made such a riotous demonstration that I'lL Ilerriot, president of the chamber, suspended the session.

The bill authorized the attorney general to appoint a prohibition rommissioner, w)lo Is empowered to nnm~ a field force of 2:3 agents to enforce the Illinois prohibition act and the search-and-seizure law. Action on Tax Bill. After It had bf'en amended to give Chicago veto power against discrimInatory legislation and to ex~ the classification of real estate, the state senate passed the Lantz resolutlon for the submission to tlle voters of a revision of the revenue section of the state constitution. This change in the basic law, as originally p1·esented, would ~ive the state legislature blanket powers in matters of taxation-allow It to classify property and to impose various forms of taxes, including an income tax. A safeguard lnduded was that these powers could not be used except by a three-fifths vote of each bouse of the assembly. An amendment, offered hy Senator John Dalley, restricted the legislature in the classification of property by adding a provision that all real estate shall be In one class except that mineral lands' and lands devoted to reforestation may be placed In different classes. It was adopted, 26 to 10. The final vote on the resolution was 44 to 1, the negative vote being that of Senator Henry M. Dunlap, a down-stater.

And this year they were more than poor, they were in debt to lllcKane for the new harness that had to be bonght to replace the other. nut Nance looked at her field of corn coming in long rows of tender green on thP orown floor of the well-worked land and hoped. She wns prone to hope. It was part of her equipment for the battie or life, her shield before the lance of her courage, her buckler of energy.

"Hope you do," said McKane. for though he was uone too scrupulous where his own Interests were concerned, he felt a vague admiration for the game girl working her lonely homestead in her dead father's place.

We had been wor!{ing about an hour when I strai~htened up to ease an achlr.g back. Almost ot my side I saw what will be ever to me the most remarkahle s!goht in the nnimnl world. Frightened by our long-continued splashing nnd tramping, a big octopus hnd crept quietly out of ll crevice just behind me and wns making his way as rapidly as possible over the seaweed shelf down to deep water. 1'\othing animate Is comparable to this sight. The bulging mass of the head or bocly, or hoth, the roun<I staring eyes', as perfect and expressive ns those of a mnmmal, and the horrlule absence of all other bo<lJly parts which such an e~·ed creature should have-nothing more hut eight honid cup-covered, snaky tentacles, reaching out in front, splaying sideways and pushing behind, while one or more ah\·ays waved in the air in the direction of suspected danger, as lf In some sort of infernal adieu. This octopus was over two feet across, jet black when I first saw him, but turning to a mottled gray when we engaged in our struggle. When I headed him off he stood on defense and did not retreat. After much feinting and slipping nnd unpleasant pulling away from the myriad suclcers, I got the beast into a snake bag and tied it fl.rmly.

Spanish ndventurers were the first, so far as Is !mown, to visit the American shores in search of booty. In the north they found t11e country disappolntlng. The sol! was sterile and unyielding. The Spanlnrds were beard by tbe natives to make frequent use of the expression ".Aca, nada," meaning "It is barren." It was noted that after giving expression to their dissatisfaction they !nYarlably departed to another place! When the French explorers arrived on the scene, the inhabitants gathered on the shore and yelled ".Aca nada," hoping to drive them away. The French took this to be the name of the country, and they called 1t Canada. The Spaniards also named Florida, meaning Land of Flowers, and Venezuela, so culled because of its resemblance to Venice. most no trimming, ore chosen by real spol"ts"·omen.

PRESIDI<)NT DAWES HAS V ICE carried his fight for revisior. of senate rules Into the Southland. Last he add1·essed· the Associated Industries of Alabama In Birmingham, and told his hearers that ''the South Is too intelligent to be deluded into the Idea that to protect it against another Force bill the right at times should be given to a minority, or even one senator, to throw a monkey wrench into the !egi~lative machinery of the common government. An!'werlng critics of the reform campaign, he said that unlimited debate "had not checked multiplicity of laws but lmd resulted In their passage without proper consideration." lie referred to the Force hill, beaten by a filibuster, as "a wrong measure" which would have been repenled If pnssed. This isolated nrgumeut of proponents of pr ·en t rules, he declared, "as an effort Intended "to affect the great intelligent South nnd to- re,·tve those unhappy Issues which have died alike in the North and South." He said he was a~lring only that the minority, "p1·otected as it Is by the checks and balances of the Constitution, shall not exercise veto r~hts over the will of a majority when that majority desires only to exercise its constitutional rights of legislation." Senator Underwood, who prereded General Dawes on the platform, praised his efforts to procure rules that would limit debate in the senate. Opposition to the proposal, he saU, comes from two sources: From some of the senators themselves, "because t11ey enjoy debate an<l like unlimited discussion," and from "those persons outside the senate who are interested in special legislation or, more particularly, In pren•nting legislation to which they are opposed." wee~ pUBLICATION by neo;n:papers of Income tax: lists Is declared lawful by the Supreme Court of the United States.

NOTWITII~TANDING their reported victories over the Rlffians, the French are having n strenuous time In Morocco. Abd-el-Krim hangs on like a leach and is said to be preparing hiP forces for a great offensive, and meaowM!e the French troops have been drawn back hehind n defensive line and are constructing powerful fortifications. There were gtories, unconfirmed, that France and Spain were ready to negotiate a pence with the Riff chieftain. The truth, as it camE out In a heated debate In the French pnrl!arnent, seems to be that Abd-elKrlm sent an emissary to M.arshn.l Lyantey to endeaYor to reach an agreement as to the frontier. The Rlffians are short of food supplies because the French have estahllshed an effective blockade. But they are planning to raid the Ouergha region. It is said a large body of trained German officers is on Its way to serve under Krlm. The French Communists insist that peace must be made with the Riffians, and when the chamber of deputies was called on to vote a credit of 30,000,000 francs for the campaign they made such a riotous demonstration that I'lL Ilerriot, president of the chamber, suspended the session.

The bill authorized the attorney general to appoint a prohibition rommissioner, w)lo Is empowered to nnm~ a field force of 2:3 agents to enforce the Illinois prohibition act and the search-and-seizure law. Action on Tax Bill. After It had bf'en amended to give Chicago veto power against discrimInatory legislation and to ex~ the classification of real estate, the state senate passed the Lantz resolutlon for the submission to tlle voters of a revision of the revenue section of the state constitution. This change in the basic law, as originally p1·esented, would ~ive the state legislature blanket powers in matters of taxation-allow It to classify property and to impose various forms of taxes, including an income tax. A safeguard lnduded was that these powers could not be used except by a three-fifths vote of each bouse of the assembly. An amendment, offered hy Senator John Dalley, restricted the legislature in the classification of property by adding a provision that all real estate shall be In one class except that mineral lands' and lands devoted to reforestation may be placed In different classes. It was adopted, 26 to 10. The final vote on the resolution was 44 to 1, the negative vote being that of Senator Henry M. Dunlap, a down-stater.

And this year they were more than poor, they were in debt to lllcKane for the new harness that had to be bonght to replace the other. nut Nance looked at her field of corn coming in long rows of tender green on thP orown floor of the well-worked land and hoped. She wns prone to hope. It was part of her equipment for the battie or life, her shield before the lance of her courage, her buckler of energy.

"Hope you do," said McKane. for though he was uone too scrupulous where his own Interests were concerned, he felt a vague admiration for the game girl working her lonely homestead in her dead father's place.

We had been wor!{ing about an hour when I strai~htened up to ease an achlr.g back. Almost ot my side I saw what will be ever to me the most remarkahle s!goht in the nnimnl world. Frightened by our long-continued splashing nnd tramping, a big octopus hnd crept quietly out of ll crevice just behind me and wns making his way as rapidly as possible over the seaweed shelf down to deep water. 1'\othing animate Is comparable to this sight. The bulging mass of the head or bocly, or hoth, the roun<I staring eyes', as perfect and expressive ns those of a mnmmal, and the horrlule absence of all other bo<lJly parts which such an e~·ed creature should have-nothing more hut eight honid cup-covered, snaky tentacles, reaching out in front, splaying sideways and pushing behind, while one or more ah\·ays waved in the air in the direction of suspected danger, as lf In some sort of infernal adieu. This octopus was over two feet across, jet black when I first saw him, but turning to a mottled gray when we engaged in our struggle. When I headed him off he stood on defense and did not retreat. After much feinting and slipping nnd unpleasant pulling away from the myriad suclcers, I got the beast into a snake bag and tied it fl.rmly.

Spanish ndventurers were the first, so far as Is !mown, to visit the American shores in search of booty. In the north they found t11e country disappolntlng. The sol! was sterile and unyielding. The Spanlnrds were beard by tbe natives to make frequent use of the expression ".Aca, nada," meaning "It is barren." It was noted that after giving expression to their dissatisfaction they !nYarlably departed to another place! When the French explorers arrived on the scene, the inhabitants gathered on the shore and yelled ".Aca nada," hoping to drive them away. The French took this to be the name of the country, and they called 1t Canada. The Spaniards also named Florida, meaning Land of Flowers, and Venezuela, so culled because of its resemblance to Venice. most no trimming, ore chosen by real spol"ts"·omen.

Santa Anita and Florida together will hang up close to $2,000,000 in purses this winter, which is more coin than horsemen have ever looked at in the racing game, as far as I can add up the figures. But the two main Grantland Rice topics of interest you run across out this way are the following: 1. How or where can they dig up a horse which can prevent Challedon from cracking Seabiscuit's all-time money record with so much gold to shoot at? 2. Will there be truer racing form in the wake of the recent jockey scandal when so many alert riders were located in the pay of crooked gamblers, who had no trouble picking winners in advance? This latter system gives the picker, on the inside, a great chance for a mop-up. The main idea is that he can't miss, which is at least financially sound. So those who are on the outside, meaning only 99 per cent, who were badly stung, are now waiting to see what will hllppen. Which means that beaten favorites, even those beaten on the straight level, will be regarded with deep suspicion unless the normal average above 35 per cent is maintained. Around the East this favorite average was dropping down to something like 25 per cent or lessor the size of your hat. Don't think the East was any too pure. Progressive Farming Methods Won Him Medals; War Causes 'Class Feeling' to Decline in England. By BAUKHAGE National Farm and Home Hour Commentator. (Released by Western Newspaper Unlon.) WASHINGTON. - Rough -hewn seems to be the word I'm after. I sat in the office of the secretary of agriculture, a big empty-looking room, and thought of a new axe biting into a Jog. Chips were flying. Then, there was the cut, clean and fresh. Then another. And another. Not smooth, machine edge, such as a new saw makes with the regular lines the teeth leave across the surface. But a good straight job, the mark of each blow, surely placed, across the grain, clear through. That's what I was thinking about as I talked with Claude Wickard, the big round-faced, homely fellow, a little awkward behind the mahogany desk but not awkward, I felt sure, standing up in a farm wagon, 1 eins in his hands, confident and solId, his feet apart as the wheels bumped over the field. Not so much at home but sure of what he was after behind the desk, the way he was that night when he called the meeting in the little Indiana schoolhouse, a kerosene lamp that hadn't been cleaned for a long time sputtering beside him, 14 or 20 farmers sitting in front of him as he organized the first Farm Bureau meeting in his community-the first one he ever attended, too. COMES TO WASHINGTON That scene, as he described it, stuck in my mind because it seemed to be the turning point in his career, or perhaps the first milestone on the road that at last took him reluctantly away from the acres that had been in the Wickard family since the 1840s and brought him CLAUDE WICKARD Rough-hewn is the word. down to Washington-into the government where he has been trying to put into practice the ideas he thought would be good for other farmers and other acres from Maine to California. Claude Wickard first came to the capital in 1933 to become assistant and later chief of the corn-hog section of the Triple-A. He was made secretary of the department of agriculture last August when Secretary Wallace resigned to run for vice president. But his heart is still back in Carrol county, Indiana, where his 71-year-old father and two men are running his farm. Corn and hogs were on Secretary Wickard's mind when I talked to him the other day, and it was corn and hogs that brought him to Washington in the beginning by way of Des Moines, Iowa, but it really goes back further than that. The schoolhouse meeting, I spoke of, was the milestone, but the day he told his father he was going to college was really the beginning. In those days -and it isn't so long ago because Wickard is only 47-a lot of farmers thought that all a boy would get in college was a lot of darn-fool ideas. Only one of the Wickard's neighbors had been to college, but Purdue university was only 30 miles away and the idea percolated. Young Claude went and when he was graduated (agricultural course, of course) in 1915 he was ready to take over the farm. Twelve years later the Prairie Farmer named him as a Master Farmer of Indiana. That was the only thing he boasted about in the half-hour conversation I bad with him. WINS STATE MEDALS Soil building brought him state medals later for success in increasing crop-yields and hog production. It also got him a request from the State Farm Bureau organization to get busy and organize a unit in his community. There wasn't any farm organization in his county then. He was supposed to go to the county seat and learn how to do it but he was too busy with his chores to get away so he just called a meeting in the schoolhouse and told his neighbors what he thought ought to be done. "I guess I sort of overstated what we could do," he said to me as he repeated the anecdote, "some of the fellows asked me afterward where all the reforms I talked about went to." He smiled that wide smile of his. Some of these ideas worked out. And the Master Farmer, in 1932, was chosen by the three rural counties that were his district to go to the state senate. The next year he was chosen Indiana delegate to the National Corn Hog conference at Des Moines. All this time the farm was his chief preoccupation, was then as it still is, his only source of income besides his salary. OFFERED POSITION The conference had hardly started when A. G. Black, whose room was on the same floor of the hotel as Wickard's, buttonholed him. Black was then head of the Corn Hog section of the Triple A. He wanted an assistant and he wanted Wickard for the job and wanted him right away. It seemed a pretty important offer, but it also seemed impossible. You can't lock up a farm like a city flat and walk off with the key in your pocket. But Black was persistent and after a mental and physical struggle, the Master Farmer mastered the situation, and with many a backward look set off for Washington. He managed to keep in pretty close touch with Carrol County while he was Corn Hog boss, but now it's harder ~ecause a secretary of agriculture ~s kept very busy. . And nght rtow Secretary Wickard wants to see more hogs-all ov~r the ~ountry-than th~re are. He s worned about the pig crop report we've heard so much about lately and the l~st word he had to say ~o m~, while a. secr.etary was p~llmg his sleeve io.r h1s ~ext appomtment, was on th1s subJect: ' "People, don't . understand what I m after, he sa1d as I rose to go, "when I say the farn:ers ought to hold ~ack some of the1r bre~d s~ws and g1l!s now because pork 1s ~omg to be htgher later on.

That's Wickard all over-the practl~al farmer who has IP.arned to thmk. • • • This Jockey Stuff I can say this much. In Jerry Geisler, California has one of the best and smartest chairmans of a racing commissio~ the sport has ever known. He is both completely honest and just as able. With sportsmen such as Carleton Burke and others on the lookout, Santa Anita has built up every known precaution against cheating.

They JUSt happen to be built along those lines, in so many ways. It's a vital part of the trade-like politics. It so happens that racing has the widest gap of all-the drop from such sportsmen as Al Vanderbilt, Carleton Burke Charley Howard BiiJ Boeing and ~any others to jo~keys and a few trainers who happened to be lured by the fragrant odor ot easy, it tainted, cash. Racing is a thrilling sport. On the average it carries far more thrills for those who have $2 across or $10 on the nose, than any other sport. It is no way to make any money. 1 Anyone who thinks he can beat 12 per cent is what you might call comical in the cupola.

By KATHLEEN NORRIS HEN a woman writes me that after so many years of marriage three or ten or fifteen, she and her husband have made the dismal discovery that they have absolutely nothing in common, that they are beginning to jar terribly on each others nerves, that without wishing each other any ill, they can no longer live together in anything but continual repression, discomfort and utter futility, then I know that she-or he, or both of them -are exhibiting a lack of character and, common sense. It is quite different when serious matters are influencing either one. Intemperance, W cruelty, infidelity may be valid grounds for the breaking up of liomes and the separation of children, although in the last-mentioned case I have always thought divorce too high a price to pay for temporary weakness and vanity. But when it is just a general lessening of affection, glamour, companionability, mutual satisfaction in being together, it means that one or the other has let go. Has stopped the pleasantness that is friendship in marriage, the eagerness to discuss plans, the readiness to forgive trifling mistakes, the old honeymoon anxiety to be generous and considerate and loving. Once these are lost, they are hard to recapture. It can be done. But the wiser way is never to lose them. Husband's Position Parallels Child's. That a husband is in much the child's position is a simple truth that many wives fail to grasp. Coldness, sharpness of voice, scolding, indifference, putting the feelings or the comfort of other persons firsther family, her old friends, herself -begins the trouble. Then when his affections wander, and when she suddenly senses that she no longer comes first with him, It avails her very little to reproach him, to ask 1 pathetically how she has failed him. She has kept his house and borne his child and never been unfaithful and given him the best years of her life, she protests. What more did Ae expect? But if he is thoroughly alienated by years of being just a bill-paying boarder in his own house, with a wife whose interests run entirely to her own beauty, bridge lunches, matinees with the girls, friends he does not know or does not like, she finds-as thousands of women find every year, that the neat selfish little scheme she has built up is a house of cards and that she is being forced to join the ranks of the d ivorced. Dislike Divorce. Most women hate the idea of divorce. They suffer bitterly with loneliness, once marriage is dis· solved, and they suffer more when they realize that a second marriage means life with another man just as faulty as the first, and the fearful problem of the children's loyalties and their happiness thrown in. The moral of which is that it would pay many a woman to check up on her marriage now. It would pay her • to determine that life was going to be lived at least half the time on George's terms.

INSTALL.'HENT IV "Because you happen to be Klondike Coburn's daughter. And I don't relish the thought of working against you. It's your father's claim they're trying to swallow up on a clouded title." "But I'm not sure that claim was ever established." And it was equally obvious that his right either to champion my cause or control my destiny had never been established. But, for all that an absurd little robin of happine~s stood up on the tip of my heart and started to sing. "We can't go into that now," Lander said as old Schlupp came in with an armful of stovewood. And Katie, a moment later, was announcing that you couldn't kill some children with a club. All this little papoose needed, she called out to us, was food. "Then she ain't a-gain' to kick the bucket?" questioned Sock-eye. "Of course she isn't," said Katie. "'But if I could lay hands on her fool redskin father I'd have him drawn and quartered." The old fire-eater's face brightened up with a new eagerness. "I'll do it for you, lady," he said with a large and rounded oath. "Sam Bryson was a-tellin' me that noaccount Injin's hidin' out in a hill .camp up above the Happy Day Mine. And I'd sure relish roundin' him up and ventilatin' his good-fornothin' carcass." "No," Katie said, "that's a luxury we can't afiord. But he's going to be made an example of by due process of law. And if either of you men will take Miss Coburn and the baby back to Toklutna in the truck I'll get help and push on to the Happy Day and see that this baby killer is put where he belongs." Sidney Lander, who had been looking down at the blanket-wrapped papoose, lifted his head and caught my eye. "I'll take Miss Coburn through to 1:'oklutna," he quietly announced. And I could feel my pulse skip a beat, casual as I tried to appear about it all. It was Sock-Eye who crossed to the door and looked out. "There's sure a smell o' snow in the air," he warned. "We'd best fix up that truck more comfortable .and stick a shovel in between the blankets and grub bags." CHAPTER IV "You're facing this like an oldtimer," he said. "I used to go out on the trail with my father," I reminded him. "That's what I want to talk to you about," he said. "Can you remember his camp on the Chakitana?" "I was never there," I had to ad- mit. "Then it won't be easy to explain what I want to," he went on. "Your father had a real mine there. And he must have known it." "Of course he did," I said, recalling ghostly scraps of talk from my childhood. "Well, so does the Trumbull outfit," proclaimed my companion. "The Chakitana Development Company always wanted a clean sweep of that valley bottom. They even sent me up there as field engineer to find out how the land lay and corral any territory needed to round out their development work. It was your father's claim which cut their field in two and kept them from having full control." "He always said he'd never sell out," I explained. "Of course he did," cried Lander. "He may have been a lone-fire prospector, but he knew he held a key position there . And when they which my companion said, "Good work!" And I remembered the faded and dog-eared certificate, w:th the photo attached, also slightly faded, showing my father looking young and strong, in the pride of his early manhood. I'd always treasured that picture of him, the only one I po9 sessed. "That means our battle's ha!l won," proclaimed Lander. "Why do you say our battle''' I asked. Lander's face, as our gvwces locked, hardened a little. Then he laughed his curt laugh. "Since I muddled into this thing," he said, "I'm going to be bullheaded enough to see it through." "But it's all so long ago," I objected. "And you can't wreck your career championing lost causes." "My career isn't wrecked. I'm thinking of swinging in with the Happy Day outfit, in fact, just beyond the Matanuska." "Why?" I asked. "Because then we won't be so far apart," he said. "You've been very kind to me," I said. "You're easy to be kind to," Lander retorted with a quiet intensity that should have shifted my heart action into high. But I had certain things to remember. "What does that mean?" I exacted. He leaned a little closer under the swaying lantern. "It means I'm happier being with you than with anyone who walks this good green earth." I was able to laugh a little. "It isn't green," I reminded him. "And you might also remember why you so nearly missed the boat at Seattle?" I could see his jaw muscles hard· en as he sat staring at me in the dim light from the lantern. "I guess I'm running a little ahead of schedule," he said as. he rose to hts fee~.

I I 'M Here's a Chans·e FronL Old Stand~Bys: Cereal Coohics; So Tastv, LoH i ~ Cost Man is separated from starvation only by the frail fabric of the green coloring matter in plants called Chlorophyl. It is only the green plant, energized by light, that can combine the simple materials of nature, such as carbon dioxide of the air, water, and mineral salts from the soil into the complex substances that serve as food for man and beast. The wants of. plants are comparatively few, but it behooves man to supply them lest the plant factory fail. Natural agencies, dependent on life processes, maintain an adequate supply of carbon dioxide in the air, and as long as the life cycle persists, plants will not lack for this building material. Water, too, is supplied by a generous nature in sufficient quantities to extensive areas and by irrigation to many acres more. But how about the supply of mineral salts from the soil? That is where the pinch comes and gives man his opportunity to play the good Samaritan. Soil particles, largely rock fragments, decay slowly, setting free the mineral nutrients needed by plants. This decay process is slow, entirely too slow to meet plant requirements. Nature overcomes this obstacle by storing available nutrients in the soil through long periods of virginity during which forests or grasses occupy the land. In such a period each plant generation returns to the soil the foods it took from the soil. Man introduced a new order ot events by removing from the soil the crops g_rown _and fattening himself and his ammals on the food · d · con t ame m t h em. U n d er th'IS sys- 1 tern, the accumulated supply of · available animal nutrients is rapidly dissipated and the crops cry out "" D ID you ever hear of a "cerealia?" No, it's not a breakfast food. It's the festival that the ancient Romans staged every year L-1. honor of Ceres, Goddess of the Grains. You can have a cerea1ia of your own; a Cookie Cerealia, for when it comes to turning out those batches of cookies, there's nothing that adds so much taste and variety at such a low cost as the well-k nown morning cer·eal. Nice part about making cereal cookies is that the cereal is already cooked and tested in the manufactw·er's ovens. All you need do is mix it in according to directions. But nicer still are the gorgeous-tasting delicacies that you can produce from just ordinary, every-day corn flakes and the like. Sort of a change from the old stand-bys, the sand-tarts and ginger snaps. Even the names of these cookies sound' good: Bran Butterscotch Cookies, New Zealand Corn Flake Kisses, Mincemeat Hermits, Peppies, and Peanut Butter Macaroans.

Attention has been centered largely on the three plant nutrients-nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash. Virtually every soil used in farming needs additional supplies of one or more of them.

A T T ---------------!-------------- E R p Scientists Sterilize Soil With Electrical Device 0 p By C. M. Payne WNU p GET ME A PENCIL PLEASE:, MA I 0 !-tARO OR SOJ=T ? • I p Scientists at the Cornell university agricultural experiment station are "pasteurizing" soils with electricity to rid these soils of insect pests and weed seeds. Soils that have become unproductive are thus made productive, as heat disinfests or disinfects the soil. Many growers of flowers and vegetables who do not have equipment to steam-"sterilize" find that limited quantities of soil can be "pasteurized" with electrical devices, according to Prof. A. G . Newhall. A soil temperature of 150 degrees Fahrenheit was found high enough to insure the death of all important disease organisms and most weed seeds. Soil in greenhouse benches and ground beds was brought up to pasteurization temperature with a series of buried portable pipe-type heaters. Successful use was also made of an electric dairy-utensil steamer to pasteurize soil in fiats or trays. Danger from over-heating soil is reduced to a minimum by the new low temperature electric pasteurization methods. Value of Silage A simple rule and one that works out pretty well is to consider silage worth one-halt the value of good legume hay. Silage that runs 10 tons to the acre must make about 50 bushels, therefore 1 ton of silage should be worth 5 bushels of corn plus 300 pounds of hay. With corn at 75 cents a bushel and hay at $15 a ton, good silage would be worth about $6 a ton. 0~! SOJ=T-.! I'M WRITING A LOVE LETTER! By J.

What a man says is impor tant, but it is his life which determines whether we accept his words as true. In spiritual things men have too often professed to follow Christ but failed to do His will. It is the business of the church to press home the necessity of an acceptance of Christ as Saviour which also makes Him the Lord of our life. I. Pious Words (v. 15). We do not know whether the man who said, "Blessed is he that eateth bread in the kingdom of God," was expressing the sincere longing of his heart or merely making a bit of pious conversation. Jesus had just been dealing with some rather disconcerting matters (vv. 1-14). On such occasions there is usually someone on hand to spoil the effectiveness of the admonition by uttering some religious platitude which will direct conversation into more comfortable channels. Even though the man was sincere, he had evidently not made any prep. arations to be present at that great feast. This appe~rs from the story Jesus related ii:. response to his words. II. Poor Excu~es (vv. 16-20). It is not enough that we know that God has prepared a place of blessedness, nor does it suffice to speak approvingly of God's invitation to come; we must accept. Uod graciously bids all men to come; but all too many, while willing to admit the desirability of corning and admiring it as the ideal thing to do, begin to make excuses. Observe that the men gave excuses, not reasons. There is a great difference. Note also that the excuses were poor ones. One had a new possession-a field-which he "must go out and see." The second had a business matter to care fortrying out oxen he had bought. The third had a personal affection he wanted to foster-a new wife whom he could not leave. The fact is that none of them wanted to come, and these were but excuses. What man buys a field without seeing it, or oxen without trying them? And we agree with Dr. Morgan that the one who had married a wife "was the most foolish of all. Why didn't he take her with him? Just excuses." Reader, what excuse is keeping you from accepting God's invitation? III. Urgent Invitations (vv. 21-24). Those who reject God's invitation hurt only themselves, for He will find guests to fill the banquet hall at the marriage supper of the Lamb. Let us not fail to observe that it is the duty of the Lord's servants (and that means every born-again Christian) to be diligently about the business of urging men to respond to God's call. Let us beware that we do not miss that point by uttering some pious platitudes about soulwinning, and then failing to do anything to reach others. It is the first business of every Christian who reads t);}ese lines to be engaged in personal soul-winning . If you want to do it and do not know how to start, I shall be glad to send you free, a copy of ' 'Lessons in SoulWinning," by Dr. Will H. Houghton. The important matter is that we get busy giving out these urgent invitations. It is the first business of the unconverted to accept that invitation. D~:~re you refuse? In one of his last rn~etings in Kansas City, Dwight L. M<Jody graphically portrayed the invitation referred to in our lesson. In closing his message he pointed to the wall of the auditorium and seemed to be writing out a reply to the invitation. He first wrote a note dedining, the final words being, "i pray thee have me excused." He said, "Would you sign that, young man? Would you, mother? Would you come up to the reporter's table, take a pen and put your name down to such an excuse? I doubt if there is one here who would sign it. It is a loving God inviting you to a feast and God is not to be mocked. Go play with the forked lightning, go trifle with pestilence and disease but trifle not with God." ' Must Have His Spirit A young Italian boy knocked one day at the door of an artist's studio in Rome, and when it was opened exclai~ed: "Please, madam, will you gtve me the master's brush?" The painter was dead, and the boy, inflamed with a longing to be an artist, wished for the great maste r's brush. The lady placed tt,e brush in the boy's hands, saying: "This is his brush; try it, my boy." With a flush of earnestness on his face he tried, but found he could paint no better than with his own. The lady then said to him: "You cannot paint like the great master unless you have his spirit." So it is with us in the Church today; if Christians have not the Master's spirit they cannot successfully carry on the Master's work.-F. M. To•NIJley. SEWJNG CIRCLE PATTERN DEPT. Room 1324 211 w.

Santa Anita and Florida together will hang up close to $2,000,000 in purses this winter, which is more coin than horsemen have ever looked at in the racing game, as far as I can add up the figures. But the two main Grantland Rice topics of interest you run across out this way are the following: 1. How or where can they dig up a horse which can prevent Challedon from cracking Seabiscuit's all-time money record with so much gold to shoot at? 2. Will there be truer racing form in the wake of the recent jockey scandal when so many alert riders were located in the pay of crooked gamblers, who had no trouble picking winners in advance? This latter system gives the picker, on the inside, a great chance for a mop-up. The main idea is that he can't miss, which is at least financially sound. So those who are on the outside, meaning only 99 per cent, who were badly stung, are now waiting to see what will hllppen. Which means that beaten favorites, even those beaten on the straight level, will be regarded with deep suspicion unless the normal average above 35 per cent is maintained. Around the East this favorite average was dropping down to something like 25 per cent or lessor the size of your hat. Don't think the East was any too pure.

WASHINGTON. - Rough -hewn seems to be the word I'm after. I sat in the office of the secretary of agriculture, a big empty-looking room, and thought of a new axe biting into a Jog. Chips were flying. Then, there was the cut, clean and fresh. Then another. And another. Not smooth, machine edge, such as a new saw makes with the regular lines the teeth leave across the surface. But a good straight job, the mark of each blow, surely placed, across the grain, clear through. That's what I was thinking about as I talked with Claude Wickard, the big round-faced, homely fellow, a little awkward behind the mahogany desk but not awkward, I felt sure, standing up in a farm wagon, 1 eins in his hands, confident and solId, his feet apart as the wheels bumped over the field. Not so much at home but sure of what he was after behind the desk, the way he was that night when he called the meeting in the little Indiana schoolhouse, a kerosene lamp that hadn't been cleaned for a long time sputtering beside him, 14 or 20 farmers sitting in front of him as he organized the first Farm Bureau meeting in his community-the first one he ever attended, too. COMES TO WASHINGTON That scene, as he described it, stuck in my mind because it seemed to be the turning point in his career, or perhaps the first milestone on the road that at last took him reluctantly away from the acres that had been in the Wickard family since the 1840s and brought him CLAUDE WICKARD Rough-hewn is the word. down to Washington-into the government where he has been trying to put into practice the ideas he thought would be good for other farmers and other acres from Maine to California. Claude Wickard first came to the capital in 1933 to become assistant and later chief of the corn-hog section of the Triple-A. He was made secretary of the department of agriculture last August when Secretary Wallace resigned to run for vice president. But his heart is still back in Carrol county, Indiana, where his 71-year-old father and two men are running his farm. Corn and hogs were on Secretary Wickard's mind when I talked to him the other day, and it was corn and hogs that brought him to Washington in the beginning by way of Des Moines, Iowa, but it really goes back further than that. The schoolhouse meeting, I spoke of, was the milestone, but the day he told his father he was going to college was really the beginning. In those days -and it isn't so long ago because Wickard is only 47-a lot of farmers thought that all a boy would get in college was a lot of darn-fool ideas. Only one of the Wickard's neighbors had been to college, but Purdue university was only 30 miles away and the idea percolated. Young Claude went and when he was graduated (agricultural course, of course) in 1915 he was ready to take over the farm. Twelve years later the Prairie Farmer named him as a Master Farmer of Indiana. That was the only thing he boasted about in the half-hour conversation I bad with him. WINS STATE MEDALS Soil building brought him state medals later for success in increasing crop-yields and hog production. It also got him a request from the State Farm Bureau organization to get busy and organize a unit in his community. There wasn't any farm organization in his county then. He was supposed to go to the county seat and learn how to do it but he was too busy with his chores to get away so he just called a meeting in the schoolhouse and told his neighbors what he thought ought to be done. "I guess I sort of overstated what we could do," he said to me as he repeated the anecdote, "some of the fellows asked me afterward where all the reforms I talked about went to." He smiled that wide smile of his. Some of these ideas worked out. And the Master Farmer, in 1932, was chosen by the three rural counties that were his district to go to the state senate. The next year he was chosen Indiana delegate to the National Corn Hog conference at Des Moines. All this time the farm was his chief preoccupation, was then as it still is, his only source of income besides his salary. OFFERED POSITION The conference had hardly started when A. G. Black, whose room was on the same floor of the hotel as Wickard's, buttonholed him. Black was then head of the Corn Hog section of the Triple A. He wanted an assistant and he wanted Wickard for the job and wanted him right away. It seemed a pretty important offer, but it also seemed impossible. You can't lock up a farm like a city flat and walk off with the key in your pocket. But Black was persistent and after a mental and physical struggle, the Master Farmer mastered the situation, and with many a backward look set off for Washington. He managed to keep in pretty close touch with Carrol County while he was Corn Hog boss, but now it's harder ~ecause a secretary of agriculture ~s kept very busy. . And nght rtow Secretary Wickard wants to see more hogs-all ov~r the ~ountry-than th~re are.

By KATHLEEN NORRIS HEN a woman writes me that after so many years of marriage three or ten or fifteen, she and her husband have made the dismal discovery that they have absolutely nothing in common, that they are beginning to jar terribly on each others nerves, that without wishing each other any ill, they can no longer live together in anything but continual repression, discomfort and utter futility, then I know that she-or he, or both of them -are exhibiting a lack of character and, common sense. It is quite different when serious matters are influencing either one. Intemperance, W cruelty, infidelity may be valid grounds for the breaking up of liomes and the separation of children, although in the last-mentioned case I have always thought divorce too high a price to pay for temporary weakness and vanity. But when it is just a general lessening of affection, glamour, companionability, mutual satisfaction in being together, it means that one or the other has let go. Has stopped the pleasantness that is friendship in marriage, the eagerness to discuss plans, the readiness to forgive trifling mistakes, the old honeymoon anxiety to be generous and considerate and loving. Once these are lost, they are hard to recapture. It can be done. But the wiser way is never to lose them. Husband's Position Parallels Child's. That a husband is in much the child's position is a simple truth that many wives fail to grasp. Coldness, sharpness of voice, scolding, indifference, putting the feelings or the comfort of other persons firsther family, her old friends, herself -begins the trouble. Then when his affections wander, and when she suddenly senses that she no longer comes first with him, It avails her very little to reproach him, to ask 1 pathetically how she has failed him. She has kept his house and borne his child and never been unfaithful and given him the best years of her life, she protests. What more did Ae expect? But if he is thoroughly alienated by years of being just a bill-paying boarder in his own house, with a wife whose interests run entirely to her own beauty, bridge lunches, matinees with the girls, friends he does not know or does not like, she finds-as thousands of women find every year, that the neat selfish little scheme she has built up is a house of cards and that she is being forced to join the ranks of the d ivorced. Dislike Divorce. Most women hate the idea of divorce. They suffer bitterly with loneliness, once marriage is dis· solved, and they suffer more when they realize that a second marriage means life with another man just as faulty as the first, and the fearful problem of the children's loyalties and their happiness thrown in. The moral of which is that it would pay many a woman to check up on her marriage now. It would pay her • to determine that life was going to be lived at least half the time on George's terms.

INSTALL.'HENT IV "Because you happen to be Klondike Coburn's daughter. And I don't relish the thought of working against you. It's your father's claim they're trying to swallow up on a clouded title." "But I'm not sure that claim was ever established." And it was equally obvious that his right either to champion my cause or control my destiny had never been established. But, for all that an absurd little robin of happine~s stood up on the tip of my heart and started to sing. "We can't go into that now," Lander said as old Schlupp came in with an armful of stovewood. And Katie, a moment later, was announcing that you couldn't kill some children with a club. All this little papoose needed, she called out to us, was food. "Then she ain't a-gain' to kick the bucket?" questioned Sock-eye. "Of course she isn't," said Katie. "'But if I could lay hands on her fool redskin father I'd have him drawn and quartered." The old fire-eater's face brightened up with a new eagerness. "I'll do it for you, lady," he said with a large and rounded oath. "Sam Bryson was a-tellin' me that noaccount Injin's hidin' out in a hill .camp up above the Happy Day Mine. And I'd sure relish roundin' him up and ventilatin' his good-fornothin' carcass." "No," Katie said, "that's a luxury we can't afiord. But he's going to be made an example of by due process of law. And if either of you men will take Miss Coburn and the baby back to Toklutna in the truck I'll get help and push on to the Happy Day and see that this baby killer is put where he belongs." Sidney Lander, who had been looking down at the blanket-wrapped papoose, lifted his head and caught my eye. "I'll take Miss Coburn through to 1:'oklutna," he quietly announced. And I could feel my pulse skip a beat, casual as I tried to appear about it all. It was Sock-Eye who crossed to the door and looked out. "There's sure a smell o' snow in the air," he warned. "We'd best fix up that truck more comfortable .and stick a shovel in between the blankets and grub bags." CHAPTER IV "You're facing this like an oldtimer," he said. "I used to go out on the trail with my father," I reminded him. "That's what I want to talk to you about," he said. "Can you remember his camp on the Chakitana?" "I was never there," I had to ad- mit. "Then it won't be easy to explain what I want to," he went on. "Your father had a real mine there. And he must have known it." "Of course he did," I said, recalling ghostly scraps of talk from my childhood. "Well, so does the Trumbull outfit," proclaimed my companion. "The Chakitana Development Company always wanted a clean sweep of that valley bottom. They even sent me up there as field engineer to find out how the land lay and corral any territory needed to round out their development work. It was your father's claim which cut their field in two and kept them from having full control." "He always said he'd never sell out," I explained. "Of course he did," cried Lander. "He may have been a lone-fire prospector, but he knew he held a key position there . And when they which my companion said, "Good work!" And I remembered the faded and dog-eared certificate, w:th the photo attached, also slightly faded, showing my father looking young and strong, in the pride of his early manhood. I'd always treasured that picture of him, the only one I po9 sessed. "That means our battle's ha!l won," proclaimed Lander. "Why do you say our battle''' I asked. Lander's face, as our gvwces locked, hardened a little. Then he laughed his curt laugh. "Since I muddled into this thing," he said, "I'm going to be bullheaded enough to see it through." "But it's all so long ago," I objected. "And you can't wreck your career championing lost causes." "My career isn't wrecked. I'm thinking of swinging in with the Happy Day outfit, in fact, just beyond the Matanuska." "Why?" I asked. "Because then we won't be so far apart," he said. "You've been very kind to me," I said. "You're easy to be kind to," Lander retorted with a quiet intensity that should have shifted my heart action into high. But I had certain things to remember. "What does that mean?" I exacted. He leaned a little closer under the swaying lantern. "It means I'm happier being with you than with anyone who walks this good green earth." I was able to laugh a little. "It isn't green," I reminded him. "And you might also remember why you so nearly missed the boat at Seattle?"

[ • OUR COMIC SECTION e ] 0 ~~_________P_e_te_r_B_._P_ee_v_e________~l 0 FAR1 ToPics DEPLETED SOILS NEED MINERALS Plants Require Phosphorus, Potash, Nitrogen. By DR. C. E. MILLAR (Professor of Soils, Michica.. State Colltge.) I I 'M Here's a Chans·e FronL Old Stand~Bys: Cereal Coohics; So Tastv, LoH i ~ Cost Man is separated from starvation only by the frail fabric of the green coloring matter in plants called Chlorophyl. It is only the green plant, energized by light, that can combine the simple materials of nature, such as carbon dioxide of the air, water, and mineral salts from the soil into the complex substances that serve as food for man and beast. The wants of. plants are comparatively few, but it behooves man to supply them lest the plant factory fail. Natural agencies, dependent on life processes, maintain an adequate supply of carbon dioxide in the air, and as long as the life cycle persists, plants will not lack for this building material. Water, too, is supplied by a generous nature in sufficient quantities to extensive areas and by irrigation to many acres more. But how about the supply of mineral salts from the soil? That is where the pinch comes and gives man his opportunity to play the good Samaritan. Soil particles, largely rock fragments, decay slowly, setting free the mineral nutrients needed by plants. This decay process is slow, entirely too slow to meet plant requirements. Nature overcomes this obstacle by storing available nutrients in the soil through long periods of virginity during which forests or grasses occupy the land. In such a period each plant generation returns to the soil the foods it took from the soil. Man introduced a new order ot events by removing from the soil the crops g_rown _and fattening himself and his ammals on the food · d · con t ame m t h em. U n d er th'IS sys- 1 tern, the accumulated supply of · available animal nutrients is rapidly dissipated and the crops cry out "" D ID you ever hear of a "cerealia?" No, it's not a breakfast food. It's the festival that the ancient Romans staged every year L-1. honor of Ceres, Goddess of the Grains. You can have a cerea1ia of your own; a Cookie Cerealia, for when it comes to turning out those batches of cookies, there's nothing that adds so much taste and variety at such a low cost as the well-k nown morning cer·eal. Nice part about making cereal cookies is that the cereal is already cooked and tested in the manufactw·er's ovens. All you need do is mix it in according to directions. But nicer still are the gorgeous-tasting delicacies that you can produce from just ordinary, every-day corn flakes and the like. Sort of a change from the old stand-bys, the sand-tarts and ginger snaps. Even the names of these cookies sound' good: Bran Butterscotch Cookies, New Zealand Corn Flake Kisses, Mincemeat Hermits, Peppies, and Peanut Butter Macaroans.

Attention has been centered largely on the three plant nutrients-nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash. Virtually every soil used in farming needs additional supplies of one or more of them. Most all fertilizers also contain appreciable quantities of calcium and sulphur and lesser amounts of several other elements which are used by plants. A T T ---------------!-------------- E R p Scientists Sterilize Soil With Electrical Device 0 p By C. M. Payne WNU p GET ME A PENCIL PLEASE:, MA I 0 !-tARO OR SOJ=T ? • I p Scientists at the Cornell university agricultural experiment station are "pasteurizing" soils with electricity to rid these soils of insect pests and weed seeds. Soils that have become unproductive are thus made productive, as heat disinfests or disinfects the soil. Many growers of flowers and vegetables who do not have equipment to steam-"sterilize" find that limited quantities of soil can be "pasteurized" with electrical devices, according to Prof. A. G . Newhall. A soil temperature of 150 degrees Fahrenheit was found high enough to insure the death of all important disease organisms and most weed seeds. Soil in greenhouse benches and ground beds was brought up to pasteurization temperature with a series of buried portable pipe-type heaters. Successful use was also made of an electric dairy-utensil steamer to pasteurize soil in fiats or trays. Danger from over-heating soil is reduced to a minimum by the new low temperature electric pasteurization methods. Value of Silage A simple rule and one that works out pretty well is to consider silage worth one-halt the value of good legume hay. Silage that runs 10 tons to the acre must make about 50 bushels, therefore 1 ton of silage should be worth 5 bushels of corn plus 300 pounds of hay. With corn at 75 cents a bushel and hay at $15 a ton, good silage would be worth about $6 a ton. 0~! SOJ=T-.! I'M WRITING A LOVE LETTER! By J.

WNU Let Them Work Farmer McTavish fell in a well where the water was seven feet deep, and cold. His wife, who had seen him fall in, called down to him: "I'll ring the dinner bell so the boys will come and pull you up." "What time is it?" McTavish yelled back. " 'Bout half-past ten." "No, dang it, let 'em work till dinner time. I'll swim around until they arrive." I WISECRACKER "Rullo! v. hat are those red marks on your coat?" "Rust.

What a man says is impor tant, but it is his life which determines whether we accept his words as true. In spiritual things men have too often professed to follow Christ but failed to do His will. It is the business of the church to press home the necessity of an acceptance of Christ as Saviour which also makes Him the Lord of our life. I. Pious Words (v. 15). We do not know whether the man who said, "Blessed is he that eateth bread in the kingdom of God," was expressing the sincere longing of his heart or merely making a bit of pious conversation. Jesus had just been dealing with some rather disconcerting matters (vv. 1-14). On such occasions there is usually someone on hand to spoil the effectiveness of the admonition by uttering some religious platitude which will direct conversation into more comfortable channels. Even though the man was sincere, he had evidently not made any prep. arations to be present at that great feast. This appe~rs from the story Jesus related ii:. response to his words. II. Poor Excu~es (vv. 16-20). It is not enough that we know that God has prepared a place of blessedness, nor does it suffice to speak approvingly of God's invitation to come; we must accept. Uod graciously bids all men to come; but all too many, while willing to admit the desirability of corning and admiring it as the ideal thing to do, begin to make excuses. Observe that the men gave excuses, not reasons. There is a great difference. Note also that the excuses were poor ones. One had a new possession-a field-which he "must go out and see." The second had a business matter to care fortrying out oxen he had bought. The third had a personal affection he wanted to foster-a new wife whom he could not leave. The fact is that none of them wanted to come, and these were but excuses. What man buys a field without seeing it, or oxen without trying them? And we agree with Dr. Morgan that the one who had married a wife "was the most foolish of all. Why didn't he take her with him? Just excuses." Reader, what excuse is keeping you from accepting God's invitation? III. Urgent Invitations (vv. 21-24). Those who reject God's invitation hurt only themselves, for He will find guests to fill the banquet hall at the marriage supper of the Lamb. Let us not fail to observe that it is the duty of the Lord's servants (and that means every born-again Christian) to be diligently about the business of urging men to respond to God's call. Let us beware that we do not miss that point by uttering some pious platitudes about soulwinning, and then failing to do anything to reach others. It is the first business of every Christian who reads t);}ese lines to be engaged in personal soul-winning . If you want to do it and do not know how to start, I shall be glad to send you free, a copy of ' 'Lessons in SoulWinning," by Dr. Will H. Houghton. The important matter is that we get busy giving out these urgent invitations. It is the first business of the unconverted to accept that invitation. D~:~re you refuse? In one of his last rn~etings in Kansas City, Dwight L. M<Jody graphically portrayed the invitation referred to in our lesson. In closing his message he pointed to the wall of the auditorium and seemed to be writing out a reply to the invitation. He first wrote a note dedining, the final words being, "i pray thee have me excused." He said, "Would you sign that, young man? Would you, mother? Would you come up to the reporter's table, take a pen and put your name down to such an excuse? I doubt if there is one here who would sign it. It is a loving God inviting you to a feast and God is not to be mocked. Go play with the forked lightning, go trifle with pestilence and disease but trifle not with God." ' Must Have His Spirit A young Italian boy knocked one day at the door of an artist's studio in Rome, and when it was opened exclai~ed: "Please, madam, will you gtve me the master's brush?" The painter was dead, and the boy, inflamed with a longing to be an artist, wished for the great maste r's brush. The lady placed tt,e brush in the boy's hands, saying: "This is his brush; try it, my boy." With a flush of earnestness on his face he tried, but found he could paint no better than with his own. The lady then said to him: "You cannot paint like the great master unless you have his spirit." So it is with us in the Church today; if Christians have not the Master's spirit they cannot successfully carry on the Master's work.-F. M. To•NIJley. SEWJNG CIRCLE PATTERN DEPT. Room 1324 211 w.

The parade was part of the celebration of the one hundredth Dixie Highway Was Once Hubbard Trail From Crete's Early History by the Crete Woman's Club, 1922 by Mrs. W. H. Robe In the beginning of the Nineteenth Century, when the white man cut his way through the wilderness into the Illinois country, there were but few settlements all of which were along the waterways . Practically the only contact the settlers had with the civilized world was through the fur traders who came to this part of the country to trade with the Indians. The Indians , being great hunters , had many fine furs and they exchanged these for gew-gaws, and any little old glittering thing that struck their fancy. This made fur trading a most remunerative business for the white man and caused the establishment of trading posts all over the country , especially along waterways. A string of trading posts was established along the Iroquois and Kankakee rivers and their tributaries, under the charge of Gurdon S . Hubbard , with headquarters at Danville. This was about the year 1827, and up to this time posts were still located along waterways . In the early days, long before Columbus thought of looking for a shorter route to India , this continent had raised its peaks out of the waters of the earth. Years before civilized man invaded the shores of North America, the American Indian had lived, hunted, fought and died here. Before the days of civilization and toil, animals and savages foraged for food and shelter. When these were exhausted in one place, they sought elsewhere. When the weather grew cold in the autumn instinctively they traveled south. With the autumn rains the low lands became impassable, therefore the higher the ground in the general direction in which the hordes passed became the traveled route. It was along one of these routes between Chicago and Danville that Gurdon S. Hubbard transported his goods . He procured pack ponies and wended his way down to the Wabash , dotting the plain with trading posts at Blue Island , Momence, Watseka and other points. The highway thus established was known as "Hubbard's Trail " and was for many years the only well-defined road between Chicago and the Wabash country. In reviewing the annals of history , we find that a part of this old route runs right through the center of Crete and is now called "Main Street." With this interesting background , and with the certain knowledge that history was being made right on this spot, before Crete was thought of as a village, it seems but fitting to do something to commemorate the past. anniversary of the founding of Crete. The Crete Golf Course advertised on sign in background was just west of the present day high school. When Crete Was Incorporated From Crete's Early History by Crete Woman's Club, 1922 In March, 1880, county Judge Benjamin Olin called an election to vote on incorporation under the general law, which was carried. He then caused notices to be posted for an election to be held on April 20, 1880, to vote for six village trustees and the following persons were elected: Ernst Rinne, Charles Horn Sr., J.C. Rohe, Walter Loock, Diedrich Seehausen and Christian Knabe. board chairs, 1 arm chair, table with drawer, stove and 1 lamp. The second election was held on April 19, 1881 and the following officers were elected - J.B . Robinson, Wm . Rohe, and Henry Rohe Trustees; W. H.

Page Three From the Crete Enterprise, December 24, 1875. Remember As in all other parts of the North, there were abolitionists living in Crete in the days of slavery in the South . When the Fugitive Slave Act was passed in Congress in 1_!W8, the Underground Railroad was formed by northern sympathizers, and one of the "depots" was in Crete. "The Underground Railroad was a spontaneous growth of opposition and defiance to the Fugitive Slave law and pity for, and desire to mitigate as far as possible the great suffering of the poor unforunate people who were trying so hard to gain their libertytheir freedom from cruel tyranny," remembers Ella Porter in "Crete's Early History", by the Crete Women's Club in 1922. One of those most actively involved in the Railroad was Samuel Cushing of Beebe's Grove, Ella Porter's uncle. She recalls the methods through which he performed his service to the slaves: "There were underground stations all the way from the Ohio river to Chicago, and fugitives were constantly being passed along. Mr. Cushing received them from Crown Point and other places. They were brought in wagons, lying down in hay and covered with cornstalks. Uncle always had family worship and he usually invited the fugitives in , fed them, and loaned them Bibles so they could join in the morning worship. "Mr. Cushing usually started for the city about one or two o'clock in the morning with his load of hay, cornstalks, vegetables and livestock. He didn't reach there as quickly as the automobiles do now, but he arrived in time to get his load safely stored in safe places. He could leave them with his brother or Deacon Johnson's or Deacon Temple's protection. . They were all strong workers in Plymouth Congregational Church." Mrs. Porter recounts how a female slave was helped to escape by disguising her and how others hid from the authorities on a boat with the aid of the crew until they could abandon the ship in Canadian waters. She also tells of a neighbor, opposed to the Railroad, who was persuaded to aid a group of slaves after seeing how they were beaten. With the help of Cushing and many others across the northern states, the Underground Railroad was very successful, and Mrs. Porter says, "They helped away hundreds, and they told me in Chicago that they never lost one. They could not have succeeded so well if it had not been for the splendid help and sympathy given them by the captains on the lake. "The histories tell us in large numbers that many thousands escaped in spit~f their law, and a prominent Senator said in his speech before the Senate at that time, 'that it was easier to get a lost fish from the bottom of the sea than to recover a runaway slave from The Underground Railroad.'

Diary Of A mE HATTENDORF HOTEL, located aHhe corner of First Street and the C&EI railroad until it was razed in 1964, was an attempt at luxury that fell flat. Built in 1892 to house visitors to the Columbian Exposition in Chicago, the hotel was erected at a cost of $25,000. The 23 room, gray frame struct~re housed a. ballroom covering the third floor,l3 bedrooms and a bath on the second, 10 rooms, a bath, a spac10us lobby. k1tchen and dining room on the first and a bar in the basement. It closed its doors soon after opening because of lack of patronage. In 1908, Myron J. Adams boughtthe mortgage on the building and converted it to a factory. (No. 10 on the Crete Historical Map.) Crete Housewife While often overlooked in historical reviews, the housewife has always played a role in the development of an area and has had her share of hardships. Perhaps a representative view of a Crete housewife in the 1890s. can be found in the 1893 diary of. Belle Bordwell Starr. Miss Bordwell married Frank Starr in liiSS. and had two young children at the time of her writing. Miss Starr's average week consisted mainly of ironing,j baking, washing, and sewing. Typical of the entries .in her diary are these. "Did the baking and finished ironing the sheets. It was a job, too." "Ironed starched clothes. Sewed, on carpet." "Finished the carpet. Baked pies and cakes." "Finished the last of the dresses: this makes seven for her this spring." "Sewed up and hemmed five unbleached sheets. Didn't I do a good day's work?" The 1890s housewife had to make• a good deal of her family's clothing, but this was no eas~ chore. "Got Frank's second shir all done soon after dinner," shE: writes on Feb. 16, "and felt rathe1 tired. There is so much machinE work on them." Even the clothes she made were eventually "recycled." "Ripped up my black dress. It was good for nothing but carpet rags. All worn out," she writes. Canning was the fall's major activity, and she lists several days which were spent canning various fruits and vegetables. Possibly the hardest chore of all was washing. On Jan. 10, she recounts some of these troubles: "Left the children and went over home to wash. It was too cold to take them, so they staid with Ma S. Ma's cistern went dry after I had wash commenced, so had to go to Cole's for water. One of their cisterns is empty, so there seems to be quite a scarcity of soft water. I hung the clothes in Cole's attic." During ·the summer, another wash day was made more difficult when Mrs. Starr couldn't ''make. the hard water work. I pressed with them all forenoon but could not get them clean. They were all stuck up. I shall have to send part of them to be washed over. Still, Mrs. Starr found time to read listing "Lorna Doone " "The Scariet Letter" and "Twi~e Told Tales" among the books she read during the year. There are other interesting bits and pieces to be found in the diary. The winter of 1892-93, for instance, was especially hard, with temperatures of 16, 14 and 19 degrees below zero on successive days in January. When Mrs. Starr's parents presented her son, Burt, with his first suit1 she comments, "I think I'll keep him in pants as he is nearly four and children wear pants so much younger than the) used too." She also tells of how her husband rented a house for them in Chicago Heights at $25 a month. "There are five rooms upstairs and we will try to rent them furnished. Will keep the downstairs for ourselves. Three rooms." The Starr's new house came with a "new gasolene stove, and think I will like it very much, when I get used to it." During the year of 1~93, however, Mrs. Starr's favorite pastime was going to the World's Fair in Chicago. Her first visit 1 filled an entire page in the _diary: I "Took Ill. Central train for World's Fair. Got there about 12. Was in the Horticultural Hall. Transportation. Administration. Machinery. Agricultural. Electricity. Mines. Manufactures. Music Hall. Peristyle. La Rabida Convent. U. S. Battleship. Gov. and Fishery Buildings. Rode on Intramural railway. Left at 5:30 on Elevated. Got Lunch at Allen's and home on last dummy. The Fair is just grand and I'm crazy to go again." Mrs. Starr went back to the Fair nine more times during the summer and fall, always managing to see an extraordinary number of exhibits each time. Her enthusiasm for the World's Fair is understandable though, in that it' gave her time .off from the daily routine of the 1890s hpusewife.

S u N R E P A IRIN G · FRONT WHEEL ALI G N ME NT TUNE -U P TE S TIN G- AIR COND I TIONING Crete Papers Expand With Passing Years_ Just as assuredly .as the nature and character of the town of Crete has changed since Willard Wood first came to the area in 1836, so . have the newspapers that have served Crete for the past one hundred and one half years. On Dec. 24, 1875, the first Crete newspaper was published. The · publisher was Charles E . Carter and the paper was the Crete Enterprise. According to the 1878 History of Will County, published by William LeBaron, "Anyone who has perused the columns of the Crete Enterprise can see that Mr. Carter is thoroughly master of the pen." The first issue of the Crete Enterprise had a subscription list of about 150; by 1878 it had 300 subscribers and ranked "among the leading papers of Will Coun· ty." It was also independent in politics, says the history book. The year 1888 found the firm of Tillotson and Trowbridge editors, and publishers of the Cret~ Journal and its auxiliaries. The• papers covered Bloom , Monee, Beecher, Matteson and Goodenow . The combination of papers was reported by the 1890. Portrait Biographical Album of Will County to have a "bona fide issue of 500 copies weekly." It was said' the papers were · " heartily welcomed by the people of this region , being full of local news, and treating concisely all thej 1 important topics of the day ." William C. Trowbridge bought' out his partner, Myron J . Tillot-: son, in 1891 and conducted the, paper alone until 1894 when he moved the plant to Chicago! Heights and established a paper' called the Chicago Heights Signal, which he published until 1898. He then sold out there and inl the Fall of the same year returned to Crete, purchasing a half interest in the Crete Citizen. In 1899 he became the sole owner. As editor and publisher of the Crete Citizen , William C. Trowbridge took an active role in the life of the community. He gave his political support to the Republican party, was village clerk and postmaster. Trowbridge's son , William Roy, joined his father in the newspaper. and later bought him out. 1963, William Roy. In Trowbridge wrote a reminiscence lo the Crete Record from his retirement home in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. "After Dad left Crete," he wrote, "Mr . <H .W.) DeJarnatt of Chicago came to Crete to start the Crete Citizen which he published for a number of years." (H.W. DeJarnatt had been a lieutenant in the Confederate Army , serving in Missouri during the Civil War, and is buried in the Crete Cemetery. ) Roy Trowbridge's letter continues, ':Then Mr. Roscoe and my father bought it and Father bought out his partner later. "I bought it from him in 1909 and continued its publication until 1917 when I moved to Steger, later discontinuing its publication." On Nov. 25, 1920, Edwin M. Williams put out Vol. 1, Number 1 of t.he Crete Record, which he continued to publish until 1949. Over the years the Crete newspaper emanated from various locations. In 1899 its office stood where the Crete Hardware store is now located. At another time it was located on the site of the present laundromat parking lot. When Mr . Williams first came to town it was located in the southmost part of the Old Town . Restaurant building. Later· it was ' in the first Wilkening building, just one lot south of the southwest corner of Main and Exchange. At that location Mr. Williams used to sit in the window where the light was good and hand pick the type for each week's issue, letter by letter from the old type case. The . Crete Centennial edition was issued July 2, 1936, with the outer pages printed on shocking · pink paper to celebrate the town's lOOth anniversary. In 1942 Williams published a special issue ' honoring Crete's servicemen. ! Nearly all of the 82 Crete residents i serving in the military at that time were pictured. In 1949 the Record was bought by Roy C. Schumacher and Kenneth Weeks. The Korean action called Weeks into. the Army in 1950 and Mr. Schumacher continued as sole publisher of the paper until July 1963. It was printed in the Wilkening building until that structure was razed and it was moved to a new building· behind the post office. The Record was bought by P .J . Cleary, publisher of the Farmers Weekly Review in Joliet, who operated it briefly l,Ultil October 1963 when it was acquired by Russell Printing Co. G. Lee Russell and his son, Gilbert L. Russell, were the original publishers . Lee later retired and son Lanson W. joined Gilbert as publisher. Lee Russell died Feb. 21, 1976. Audrey DeMuth served as editor of the Record from 1963 to June 1973, becoming managing editor of all Russell papers Qn that date. The Crete Record became the fourth paper in the Russell chain, which was begun with the Peotone Vedette, a weekly newspaper established in 1894 and bought by Lee Russell in 1942. He established · the Monee Monitor in 1958 and bought the Beecher Herald in 1962. The Manhattan American was ~cquired by Russell Printing Co. m 1964. The most recent papers in the chain, the Park Forest South Post, established 1971, and the : Steger News, established 1973, began as columns in the Crete · Record. The Record has been the circulation leader of the papers for ' a number of years, with a cir1 culation today of 2400. ls! Power Cycle . -1866 ~,... - .A steam powe~ed Velocipede was invented by W.W. Austin o( Wmthrop, Mass. m 1866. The boiler was suspended at the back or the seat: The piston rods were connected directly to the rear wheel. . The f1rst gas powered motorcycle which was considered to be the first 'real' motorcycle was invented by Gottlieb Daimler or Germany in 1902. He attached a 4 cycle piston engine to a bicycle frame , This provided a basis for the powerful, well constructed motorcycles as we know them today. YAMAHA CITY 960 Dixie Hwy.

The gymnasium failed to survive its first winter, succumbing to the record-breaking snows of January 26-27 Crete-Monee Teams Grow; In Numbers And Strength by Van Nightingale The average sports fan is bound to have a hard time keeping up with high school sports in this day and age. Crete-Monee is as good an example of this as any, with 16 teams at the varsity level in 11 different sports. It wasn't always that way, however. In fact, the Crete-Monee athletic department has built up from only one team in the 1930s. In the years that followed, Crete's sports situation has continually gone up and down. In the fall of 1937, Crete High School, which was then located at what is now Crete Elementary, went from two to three years of schooling and the only varsity sport at the time was basketball. That year, led by Ron Christopher, John McDonall and John Piepenbrink, the Warriors won 14 of 21 games, the Junior Six Tournament championship, and a district title. Two years later, Crete became a four year high school, and in the fall of 1941, baseball made its debut on campus. The Warriors compiled a 4-0 record against Beecher and Grant Park in the only year of Fall baseball at Crete. The basketball team continued to hover around the .500 level · through the early 19405, and won its own holiday tournament in 1944, led by Dick Allen and Roland Piepenbrink. The first year of high school football in Crete was 1945, although the team failed to win any of its seven games. The following year, the Warriors gained their first victory, a 27-18 verdict over St. Patrick of Kankakee, as Mel Middleton and Tom North en each scored a pair of touchdowns . The 1947-48 year was a particularly successful one all around . Middleton led the basketball team to a 14-9 record and a title in the Grant Park Christmas Tournament. In football, fullback Dave Newhuis led the Warriors to a 5-2-1 season, a mark which they repeated the next season. In 1949, George Stout, a converted quarterback, set a new rushing record as the Warriors finished 4-3. The high school was first called Crete-Monee in the Fall of 1950, and was admitted to the Kankakee Valley Conference. The grid team proceeded to tear the league apart, going undefeated the next three years in conference and running up overall records of 7-1, 7-1 and 9-0. The two losses during those years were to Dyer, Ind., and both were by one point. Crete got even in the undefeated 1952 season, whipping the Hoosier team 13-0 in the C-M homecoming game. George Nagle, Don Coulom and Bill Bazil starred in the backfield during those years, as did Fred Hansen and Tom Storms at end. Quarterback Ted Becker and linemen Loren Hodson, Richy Blievernicht and Pat Soucie played on all three teams. In 1951, Crete-Monee won the only basketball title in the school's history, tying for first with Grant Park in Division II of the KVC. The Warriors, led by Hansen, storms, Coulom and Bud Newton, were one of the few teams in the league to compete in both divisions, and could have tied for first place with Bradley in Division I had it not been for a late season loss to last place Gilman . Track made its first appearance at the school in the early 1950s, and Crete won the KVC title in 1952 with 52 points, led by Becker in the 100 and Jack Sizemore in the 880 and the mile . Crete-Monee finished second in the conference meet three years later. Since the early success in football in the 19505, Crete has only had three winni_ng teams. The backfield of George Huffman, Ray Gene Brock and Jon Labahn led the Warriors to a 6-2-1 mark in 1954, while the 1962 and 1968 teams 1967. Following sounder architectural plans, the present, better built Crete-Monee Dome stands on the site of its predecessor. had identical 4-3-1 records. Still, the Warriors have had a reputation for fine runners, like Bobby Keller, Wally Malins, Dave Hanna, Kyle Maker, Bob Harsey and Travis Lacefield. On the basketball court, Crete won the 1953 district title, despite having a lo~ing record. In 1957, the Warriors were 19-~. led by Gary George and Don Daily, and copped the second annual Crete-Monee Holiday Tournament. The following year, after, heavy graduation losses, the team's record dropped off to 0-22. The baseball team had an 8-2 mark in 1956 and a 9-3 record in 1959, led by super pitchers Larry Bucholz and Ed Becker. Unfortunately, that has proved to be the baseball team's last winning season to date. In 1960, a golf team was organized and the following year it began a seven year streak during which it never lost a league title and won several district titles. Jerry Hirsch, Dave Hughes and Jon Hitt all finished third in the state meet at one time or another, and other district and conference medalists have included Steve and Ken Benson, Carl Madory, Tim Eckman and Jim McCullough in the 19605 and Phil Kline and Jim Hamann in the 1970s. The cross country program got under way in 1962, and though Crete had the Devlin brotl;lers, Pete and Jim, who finished first consistently in the 19605, and Craig Stanley in the 19705, it wasn't until 1974 that the Warriors captured a league title in the sport. · Wrestling began the same year, and the Warriors sent Jerry ·Grasser and Hal Hothan (40-3 over two years) to the sectionals in the mid-19605, but Crete never had a wrestler qualify for state until Tim Staley in 1974 and Bob Loy and Joe Rossi in 1975 accomplished the feat. Also, the best that the school has ever done in conference is a second place finish in . 1967, Hothan's senior year. In 1961, Dale Peters achieved what no other athlete at Crete- Monee has ever done: he was named most valuable player in football, basketball, baseball and track, competing in two spring sports. Two years later, the Warriors won the first Southeast Suburban Conference track meet, hosted by Crete, by a margin of 49 1h -49 over T. F . North . In 1969 they repeated as champions, led by Maker and Roger Einbecker, and put together two in a row in SICA South in 1974 and 1975 paced by sprinters Greg Gurtler and ·Lacefield. A gymnastics team was formed in 1966 and competed through 1970 before it died out. The tennis team first appeared in 1970, but didn 't compete again until 1974. The basketbaU team suffered a long dry spell in the 19605 before compiling a winning record of 15-9 in 1966 behind superstar Bruce Butchko, who averaged 25 points a ,game and later started for Southern Illinois University. The :warriors were 15-10 in 1969, and the 19705 saw Bill Michalski break the career scoring record that Tom Storms had held for 24 years as the Warrior cagers put together three winning seasons in a row and won the first regional game in Crete history. At the same time, the G.A.A. program that had its origins in the 1930s developed into nine girls varsity teams. Although all the 'teams were losers in 1974, they have all become competitive and this spring, the track team picked up Crete-Monee's first girls conference title. The gradual, yearly imprqvement of the girls athletic program sounds an optimistic note for all teams at Crete-Monee. Quite possibly, a Tricentennial look at Warrior teams will reveal an even richer heritage all around.

Wood had in mind when he chose this beautiful location, and name it Crete! Incidents And Accidents Mrs. Beardsley, who keeps a boarding-house in St. Louis, the other day put a spoonful of arsenic in some pie-crust she. was making, having mistaken it for yeast powder. The first three who partook of the pie were thrown immediately into spasms, which caused suspicion, and the others refrained from eating. The dose, however, proved too large to result fatally, and with the help of a physician the sufferers soon regained their composure of stomach. Moral: Don't eat pastry raised with arsenic. While three men were engaged in adjusting some staging at the Centennial building in Philadelphia, the other morning, the supports gave way and they .were precipitated a distance of eighty feet to the ground. They were instantly killed. This makes ten lives which have thus far been l,ost on the Centennial buildings. Rev. Geo. Millar preached a splendid sermon in the Congregational church last Sunday, his topic being "What of your Life?" Prof. Reno preached last Sunday morning and evening, and we have heard many favorable comments from members of the Methodist church. t ·:. * .... * * * * * * * * * *.* * * * * * * * * * * •.* * * * ~\ ~The Great~ Buy Centennial: . . * ** TRft1J Alia the only travel agency !*~ in town named after your town ** * . * : _Acapulco Holiday $ 31 9 American Airlines * ** Features included:. per dbl occ. ** .ew,u : • Round Trip Air TICket • 7 Night Luxury Hotel Jt·· 484 Cass (Cass and Main) Jt,' • Round Trip Limo Transfer Phone 672-6506 Sorry, We're So Young WeDon'tRecall but we're happy to be a .part of the business community of Crete••. and pleased to thlnlc of the women, post, present and future who have helped malce our country great I Q Woman's World ·~ ~~ Main St Phone: 672-7030 Crete Put Your Trust With The Experts Church and School 1610 Main St. Truth and Purity for over 65 years in Crete Pastor R.

Then there were 700 students in grades 1-12, all housed in two buildings. Today there are 5747 students in grades K-12 attending classes in nine schools. What's more, CreteMonee is one of the few school districts in the state that is still growing at a steady and rapid rate . When the district was formed, 15 separate school districts in Crete and Monee Townships were consolidated. All of these outlying schools had accommodated grades 1-8. High school classes were held in a two story addition to what is now Crete Elementary School. In fact , before consolidation Crete had offered four years of high school for less than a decade . Prior to 1939, students had started at Crete and finished at Bloom or Peotone. n1e consolidation became ot ficial July 1. 1948. Verne Crackle was the combined Superintendent of Schools and Principal of Crete Elementary . Lynn Wiley was made principal of Crete High Scho.ll . Crackle went on to become Will County Superintendent of Schools for about 14 years and has since retired . Wiley went on to become Superintendent in the Crete-Monee District and is now Crete Township Assessor . Owen Springer became the first full time Crete Elementary Principal in the <'arty '50s. Only one building that predates unit consolidation is still in use today . That is Crete Elementary, built in 1928, and added onto four times so far, with a $1.2 million renovation and expansion now. under discussion. A new Monee elementary scnool was constructed in 1953, which served as an adjunct to the old Monee school constructed in 1905. The latter venerable two story· structure was abandoned for school purposes in 1968 as unsafe, and has since been remodeled for courtroom facilities . The new' Monee school has had five additions since its erection . Crete-Monee High School was constructed in 1953 in Crete to serve the entire district. Two hundred ninety seven students moved into this building in 1954. It has since suffered through six additions and is again at capacity. Park Forest was devloping very rapidly in the early 1950's and the ever increasing enrollment presented a problem there. Classes were started in homes built and partitioned to form two classrooms each. They were held in these homes for several years, with the seventh and· eighth graders being transported to Monee. The first phase of Talala Elementary School in Park Forest was built in 1957 and some of the home classrooms abandoned. Ten new classrooms and a library were added at Talala in 1958, and more home classrooms closed. The final three homes serving school needs in Park Forest were not phased out until 1962 when St. Mary school opened in Park Forest, taking some of the load off Talala . The school had a second addition in 1970 and a third is being contemplated. Balmoral and Meadowood Schools were both built in 1960 in rural Crete Township , with identical floor plans. Despite two subsequent additions at Meadowood, it is still less than half the size of Balmoral. Development in the Meadowood sector failed to take place a~ predicted. A third small addition there is currently being con· sidered. Additions to Balmoral came in 1967 and 1970. The latter marked a departure for the district, when fifth and sixth grades were placed in the first "open concept" classroom spaces. Grades K-4 remain in traditional structured classrooms. The first junior high in the district, Hubbard Trail, was built in 1963. All seventh and eighth graders had previously been housed at Crete and Monee Elementary schools. With the construction of Hubbard Trail, the district switched to a 6-3-3 plan, which was heralded as a change in educational philosophy, but also alleviated overcrowding at the high school by siphoning off the freshman class. Later the 6-3-3 plan was abandoned as Hubbard Trail became overcrowded and additions at the high school made room for the freshman again. By 1965, the school count stood at five elementaries, one junior high, and one high school. Enrollment totaled 3565 and the faculty numbered 178. Just the year before, the district opened an administration center on First Street in Crete. Up to that point, the superintendent and the high school principal shared one office with back-to-back desks at the high school. The only other administrators at that time were a business manager and a superintendent of buildings and grounds. Today there are 11 administrators or personnel with district-wide responsibilities. That ALTHOUGH THES~ ~CHOOL childr~n seem to be enjoying their school activities at Crete Elementary school, the school buJ_Id•.ng wa~ not destmed to be standing much longer. On June 12, 1928, a fire destroyed the Crete Elementary l;lulldmg wh1ch had housed Crete students for 57 years.

Another teacher of our village was Miss Lillian Farnam , born in Crete and taught here nine years. When the present school was begun the Wilder school joined it and in 1920 the Piepenbrink school consolidated with the village school on trial. The average attendance in each room in 1873 was sixty scholars, there being only two rooms used. It has been said that Crete township, and the records show it to be so, furnished or supplied more teachers than any town in Will county, not including Joliet.

Locatl~ons And General Outlook THE FOUNDER OF OUR CITY The village of Crete is situated on the line of the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes Railroad thirtyfour miles from Chicago by rail. It is located on one of the finest agricultural regions in the State, and has a population of about eleven hundred people. The village was laid out in 1846 by Willard Wood, who ... had the first house built.. .the same year <Editor's Note : Due to the age of the original copy of the Crete Enterprise, certain segments of the paper are illegible), and occupied it as a hotel, and also kept the first post-<>ffice. Messrs. Jos. Huntly and Henry Barrett were the first merchants of Crete, and in 1846 Jos. Huntly erected the first store. The school was taught by Willard Wood, in 1837-8, just north of the village. The first Physician was Dr. G. W. Minard, who settled in 1848, and still resides in the place doing a flouri~hing business. The Chicago, Danv11le & Vincennes R.R . was completed through the place in 1869. CHURCHES Crete can boast of having three Churches: The Congregational, Methodist and German Lutheran. The Congregational Church was organized in 1852 by Rev . N. C. Clark . Their present church building was completed and dedicated in June 1852. The Methodist Chur.ch of Crete was organized in January, 1839, by Rev . ~ · R. Beggs at Thorn Grove, and m March, 1841 was transferred to Crete Village. The German Lutheran Church of Crete was formed in the winter of 1857. Their present church building was erected in 1860, just south of the village. SCHOOLS The people of Crete have not been behind their neighbors in the way of public schools. The present excellent building was erected in 1872 at a cost of $5,500. It is a large two story wooden building, pleasantly located in the edge of the grove. It is divided into four departments, which are presided over by competent teachers. The house is furnished with the best patent seats and desks, and is capable of seating three hundred pupils. The school is very popular and well patronized, and reflects great credit upon the people of Crete. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The parade was part of the celebration of the one hundredth Dixie Highway Was Once Hubbard Trail From Crete's Early History by the Crete Woman's Club, 1922 by Mrs. W. H. Robe In the beginning of the Nineteenth Century, when the white man cut his way through the wilderness into the Illinois country, there were but few settlements all of which were along the waterways . Practically the only contact the settlers had with the civilized world was through the fur traders who came to this part of the country to trade with the Indians. The Indians , being great hunters , had many fine furs and they exchanged these for gew-gaws, and any little old glittering thing that struck their fancy. This made fur trading a most remunerative business for the white man and caused the establishment of trading posts all over the country , especially along waterways. A string of trading posts was established along the Iroquois and Kankakee rivers and their tributaries, under the charge of Gurdon S . Hubbard , with headquarters at Danville. This was about the year 1827, and up to this time posts were still located along waterways . In the early days, long before Columbus thought of looking for a shorter route to India , this continent had raised its peaks out of the waters of the earth. Years before civilized man invaded the shores of North America, the American Indian had lived, hunted, fought and died here. Before the days of civilization and toil, animals and savages foraged for food and shelter. When these were exhausted in one place, they sought elsewhere. When the weather grew cold in the autumn instinctively they traveled south. With the autumn rains the low lands became impassable, therefore the higher the ground in the general direction in which the hordes passed became the traveled route. It was along one of these routes between Chicago and Danville that Gurdon S. Hubbard transported his goods . He procured pack ponies and wended his way down to the Wabash , dotting the plain with trading posts at Blue Island , Momence, Watseka and other points. The highway thus established was known as "Hubbard's Trail " and was for many years the only well-defined road between Chicago and the Wabash country. In reviewing the annals of history , we find that a part of this old route runs right through the center of Crete and is now called "Main Street." With this interesting background , and with the certain knowledge that history was being made right on this spot, before Crete was thought of as a village, it seems but fitting to do something to commemorate the past. anniversary of the founding of Crete. The Crete Golf Course advertised on sign in background was just west of the present day high school. When Crete Was Incorporated From Crete's Early History by Crete Woman's Club, 1922 In March, 1880, county Judge Benjamin Olin called an election to vote on incorporation under the general law, which was carried. He then caused notices to be posted for an election to be held on April 20, 1880, to vote for six village trustees and the following persons were elected: Ernst Rinne, Charles Horn Sr., J.C. Rohe, Walter Loock, Diedrich Seehausen and Christian Knabe. board chairs, 1 arm chair, table with drawer, stove and 1 lamp. The second election was held on April 19, 1881 and the following officers were elected - J.B . Robinson, Wm . Rohe, and Henry Rohe Trustees; W. H. Nevens, village clerk; Henry Schweer, treasurer; Lorenzo Tillotson, police constable and B.F. Hewes, street commissioner. The clerk's salary was $23.13 for the year. John Williamson was the first policeman the village had. Some noteworthy achievements of the past and present boards are the purchasing of wooded land from Ulysses Myrick in 1885 for a rpark, the installing of a city water 1 system in 1903, macadamizing jMain Street and securing of the following utilities: Telephone Exchange, 1902; Electric Lights, 1904; Interurban street cars, 1906; gas, 1913. In 1920, in conjunction with the state a wide cement roadway with curbing was built thru the center of the town, now known as the Dixie Highway. The first meeting of the board was held in the office of Daniel Hewes, J. P ., April 24, 1880, and organized by electing the following officers : President, Charles Horn Sr.; Village Clerk , Gutavus Brauns ; Treasurer , Henry Schweer ; Police Constable, Lorenzo Tillotson; Street Commissioner, Wm . Tatge. As it appeared according to law that three members of the board would have to serve two years and the other three for one year, it was decided by drawing lot that J .C. Rohe , C.Knabe and Walter Loock would serve one year and Charles Horn Sr. , Diedrich Seehausen and Ernst Rinne would serve two years. Meeting adjourned to meet April Zl , at 7% p.m .

Page Three From the Crete Enterprise, December 24, 1875. Remember As in all other parts of the North, there were abolitionists living in Crete in the days of slavery in the South . When the Fugitive Slave Act was passed in Congress in 1_!W8, the Underground Railroad was formed by northern sympathizers, and one of the "depots" was in Crete. "The Underground Railroad was a spontaneous growth of opposition and defiance to the Fugitive Slave law and pity for, and desire to mitigate as far as possible the great suffering of the poor unforunate people who were trying so hard to gain their libertytheir freedom from cruel tyranny," remembers Ella Porter in "Crete's Early History", by the Crete Women's Club in 1922. One of those most actively involved in the Railroad was Samuel Cushing of Beebe's Grove, Ella Porter's uncle. She recalls the methods through which he performed his service to the slaves: "There were underground stations all the way from the Ohio river to Chicago, and fugitives were constantly being passed along. Mr. Cushing received them from Crown Point and other places. They were brought in wagons, lying down in hay and covered with cornstalks. Uncle always had family worship and he usually invited the fugitives in , fed them, and loaned them Bibles so they could join in the morning worship. "Mr. Cushing usually started for the city about one or two o'clock in the morning with his load of hay, cornstalks, vegetables and livestock. He didn't reach there as quickly as the automobiles do now, but he arrived in time to get his load safely stored in safe places. He could leave them with his brother or Deacon Johnson's or Deacon Temple's protection. . They were all strong workers in Plymouth Congregational Church." Mrs. Porter recounts how a female slave was helped to escape by disguising her and how others hid from the authorities on a boat with the aid of the crew until they could abandon the ship in Canadian waters. She also tells of a neighbor, opposed to the Railroad, who was persuaded to aid a group of slaves after seeing how they were beaten. With the help of Cushing and many others across the northern states, the Underground Railroad was very successful, and Mrs. Porter says, "They helped away hundreds, and they told me in Chicago that they never lost one. They could not have succeeded so well if it had not been for the splendid help and sympathy given them by the captains on the lake. "The histories tell us in large numbers that many thousands escaped in spit~f their law, and a prominent Senator said in his speech before the Senate at that time, 'that it was easier to get a lost fish from the bottom of the sea than to recover a runaway slave from The Underground Railroad.'

Crete Housewife While often overlooked in historical reviews, the housewife has always played a role in the development of an area and has had her share of hardships. Perhaps a representative view of a Crete housewife in the 1890s. can be found in the 1893 diary of. Belle Bordwell Starr. Miss Bordwell married Frank Starr in liiSS. and had two young children at the time of her writing. Miss Starr's average week consisted mainly of ironing,j baking, washing, and sewing. Typical of the entries .in her diary are these. "Did the baking and finished ironing the sheets. It was a job, too." "Ironed starched clothes. Sewed, on carpet." "Finished the carpet. Baked pies and cakes." "Finished the last of the dresses: this makes seven for her this spring." "Sewed up and hemmed five unbleached sheets. Didn't I do a good day's work?" The 1890s housewife had to make• a good deal of her family's clothing, but this was no eas~ chore. "Got Frank's second shir all done soon after dinner," shE: writes on Feb. 16, "and felt rathe1 tired. There is so much machinE work on them." Even the clothes she made were eventually "recycled." "Ripped up my black dress. It was good for nothing but carpet rags. All worn out," she writes. Canning was the fall's major activity, and she lists several days which were spent canning various fruits and vegetables. Possibly the hardest chore of all was washing. On Jan. 10, she recounts some of these troubles: "Left the children and went over home to wash. It was too cold to take them, so they staid with Ma S. Ma's cistern went dry after I had wash commenced, so had to go to Cole's for water. One of their cisterns is empty, so there seems to be quite a scarcity of soft water. I hung the clothes in Cole's attic." During ·the summer, another wash day was made more difficult when Mrs. Starr couldn't ''make. the hard water work. I pressed with them all forenoon but could not get them clean. They were all stuck up. I shall have to send part of them to be washed over. Still, Mrs. Starr found time to read listing "Lorna Doone " "The Scariet Letter" and "Twi~e Told Tales" among the books she read during the year. There are other interesting bits and pieces to be found in the diary. The winter of 1892-93, for instance, was especially hard, with temperatures of 16, 14 and 19 degrees below zero on successive days in January. When Mrs. Starr's parents presented her son, Burt, with his first suit1 she comments, "I think I'll keep him in pants as he is nearly four and children wear pants so much younger than the) used too." She also tells of how her husband rented a house for them in Chicago Heights at $25 a month. "There are five rooms upstairs and we will try to rent them furnished. Will keep the downstairs for ourselves. Three rooms." The Starr's new house came with a "new gasolene stove, and think I will like it very much, when I get used to it." During the year of 1~93, however, Mrs. Starr's favorite pastime was going to the World's Fair in Chicago. Her first visit 1 filled an entire page in the _diary: I "Took Ill. Central train for World's Fair. Got there about 12. Was in the Horticultural Hall. Transportation. Administration. Machinery. Agricultural. Electricity. Mines. Manufactures. Music Hall. Peristyle. La Rabida Convent. U. S. Battleship. Gov. and Fishery Buildings. Rode on Intramural railway. Left at 5:30 on Elevated. Got Lunch at Allen's and home on last dummy. The Fair is just grand and I'm crazy to go again." Mrs. Starr went back to the Fair nine more times during the summer and fall, always managing to see an extraordinary number of exhibits each time. Her enthusiasm for the World's Fair is understandable though, in that it' gave her time .off from the daily routine of the 1890s hpusewife.

S u N R E P A IRIN G · FRONT WHEEL ALI G N ME NT TUNE -U P TE S TIN G- AIR COND I TIONING Crete Papers Expand With Passing Years_ Just as assuredly .as the nature and character of the town of Crete has changed since Willard Wood first came to the area in 1836, so . have the newspapers that have served Crete for the past one hundred and one half years. On Dec. 24, 1875, the first Crete newspaper was published. The · publisher was Charles E . Carter and the paper was the Crete Enterprise. According to the 1878 History of Will County, published by William LeBaron, "Anyone who has perused the columns of the Crete Enterprise can see that Mr. Carter is thoroughly master of the pen." The first issue of the Crete Enterprise had a subscription list of about 150; by 1878 it had 300 subscribers and ranked "among the leading papers of Will Coun· ty." It was also independent in politics, says the history book. The year 1888 found the firm of Tillotson and Trowbridge editors, and publishers of the Cret~ Journal and its auxiliaries. The• papers covered Bloom , Monee, Beecher, Matteson and Goodenow . The combination of papers was reported by the 1890. Portrait Biographical Album of Will County to have a "bona fide issue of 500 copies weekly." It was said' the papers were · " heartily welcomed by the people of this region , being full of local news, and treating concisely all thej 1 important topics of the day ." William C. Trowbridge bought' out his partner, Myron J . Tillot-: son, in 1891 and conducted the, paper alone until 1894 when he moved the plant to Chicago! Heights and established a paper' called the Chicago Heights Signal, which he published until 1898. He then sold out there and inl the Fall of the same year returned to Crete, purchasing a half interest in the Crete Citizen. In 1899 he became the sole owner. As editor and publisher of the Crete Citizen , William C. Trowbridge took an active role in the life of the community. He gave his political support to the Republican party, was village clerk and postmaster. Trowbridge's son , William Roy, joined his father in the newspaper. and later bought him out. 1963, William Roy. In Trowbridge wrote a reminiscence lo the Crete Record from his retirement home in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. "After Dad left Crete," he wrote, "Mr . <H .W.) DeJarnatt of Chicago came to Crete to start the Crete Citizen which he published for a number of years." (H.W. DeJarnatt had been a lieutenant in the Confederate Army , serving in Missouri during the Civil War, and is buried in the Crete Cemetery. ) Roy Trowbridge's letter continues, ':Then Mr. Roscoe and my father bought it and Father bought out his partner later. "I bought it from him in 1909 and continued its publication until 1917 when I moved to Steger, later discontinuing its publication." On Nov. 25, 1920, Edwin M. Williams put out Vol. 1, Number 1 of t.he Crete Record, which he continued to publish until 1949. Over the years the Crete newspaper emanated from various locations. In 1899 its office stood where the Crete Hardware store is now located. At another time it was located on the site of the present laundromat parking lot. When Mr . Williams first came to town it was located in the southmost part of the Old Town . Restaurant building. Later· it was ' in the first Wilkening building, just one lot south of the southwest corner of Main and Exchange. At that location Mr. Williams used to sit in the window where the light was good and hand pick the type for each week's issue, letter by letter from the old type case. The . Crete Centennial edition was issued July 2, 1936, with the outer pages printed on shocking · pink paper to celebrate the town's lOOth anniversary. In 1942 Williams published a special issue ' honoring Crete's servicemen. ! Nearly all of the 82 Crete residents i serving in the military at that time were pictured. In 1949 the Record was bought by Roy C. Schumacher and Kenneth Weeks. The Korean action called Weeks into. the Army in 1950 and Mr. Schumacher continued as sole publisher of the paper until July 1963. It was printed in the Wilkening building until that structure was razed and it was moved to a new building· behind the post office. The Record was bought by P .J . Cleary, publisher of the Farmers Weekly Review in Joliet, who operated it briefly l,Ultil October 1963 when it was acquired by Russell Printing Co. G. Lee Russell and his son, Gilbert L. Russell, were the original publishers . Lee later retired and son Lanson W. joined Gilbert as publisher. Lee Russell died Feb. 21, 1976. Audrey DeMuth served as editor of the Record from 1963 to June 1973, becoming managing editor of all Russell papers Qn that date. The Crete Record became the fourth paper in the Russell chain, which was begun with the Peotone Vedette, a weekly newspaper established in 1894 and bought by Lee Russell in 1942. He established · the Monee Monitor in 1958 and bought the Beecher Herald in 1962. The Manhattan American was ~cquired by Russell Printing Co. m 1964. The most recent papers in the chain, the Park Forest South Post, established 1971, and the : Steger News, established 1973, began as columns in the Crete · Record. The Record has been the circulation leader of the papers for ' a number of years, with a cir1 culation today of 2400. ls! Power Cycle . -1866 ~,... - .A steam powe~ed Velocipede was invented by W.W.

The gymnasium failed to survive its first winter, succumbing to the record-breaking snows of January 26-27 Crete-Monee Teams Grow; In Numbers And Strength by Van Nightingale The average sports fan is bound to have a hard time keeping up with high school sports in this day and age. Crete-Monee is as good an example of this as any, with 16 teams at the varsity level in 11 different sports. It wasn't always that way, however. In fact, the Crete-Monee athletic department has built up from only one team in the 1930s. In the years that followed, Crete's sports situation has continually gone up and down. In the fall of 1937, Crete High School, which was then located at what is now Crete Elementary, went from two to three years of schooling and the only varsity sport at the time was basketball. That year, led by Ron Christopher, John McDonall and John Piepenbrink, the Warriors won 14 of 21 games, the Junior Six Tournament championship, and a district title. Two years later, Crete became a four year high school, and in the fall of 1941, baseball made its debut on campus. The Warriors compiled a 4-0 record against Beecher and Grant Park in the only year of Fall baseball at Crete. The basketball team continued to hover around the .500 level · through the early 19405, and won its own holiday tournament in 1944, led by Dick Allen and Roland Piepenbrink. The first year of high school football in Crete was 1945, although the team failed to win any of its seven games. The following year, the Warriors gained their first victory, a 27-18 verdict over St. Patrick of Kankakee, as Mel Middleton and Tom North en each scored a pair of touchdowns . The 1947-48 year was a particularly successful one all around . Middleton led the basketball team to a 14-9 record and a title in the Grant Park Christmas Tournament. In football, fullback Dave Newhuis led the Warriors to a 5-2-1 season, a mark which they repeated the next season. In 1949, George Stout, a converted quarterback, set a new rushing record as the Warriors finished 4-3. The high school was first called Crete-Monee in the Fall of 1950, and was admitted to the Kankakee Valley Conference. The grid team proceeded to tear the league apart, going undefeated the next three years in conference and running up overall records of 7-1, 7-1 and 9-0. The two losses during those years were to Dyer, Ind., and both were by one point. Crete got even in the undefeated 1952 season, whipping the Hoosier team 13-0 in the C-M homecoming game. George Nagle, Don Coulom and Bill Bazil starred in the backfield during those years, as did Fred Hansen and Tom Storms at end. Quarterback Ted Becker and linemen Loren Hodson, Richy Blievernicht and Pat Soucie played on all three teams. In 1951, Crete-Monee won the only basketball title in the school's history, tying for first with Grant Park in Division II of the KVC. The Warriors, led by Hansen, storms, Coulom and Bud Newton, were one of the few teams in the league to compete in both divisions, and could have tied for first place with Bradley in Division I had it not been for a late season loss to last place Gilman . Track made its first appearance at the school in the early 1950s, and Crete won the KVC title in 1952 with 52 points, led by Becker in the 100 and Jack Sizemore in the 880 and the mile . Crete-Monee finished second in the conference meet three years later. Since the early success in football in the 19505, Crete has only had three winni_ng teams. The backfield of George Huffman, Ray Gene Brock and Jon Labahn led the Warriors to a 6-2-1 mark in 1954, while the 1962 and 1968 teams 1967. Following sounder architectural plans, the present, better built Crete-Monee Dome stands on the site of its predecessor. had identical 4-3-1 records. Still, the Warriors have had a reputation for fine runners, like Bobby Keller, Wally Malins, Dave Hanna, Kyle Maker, Bob Harsey and Travis Lacefield. On the basketball court, Crete won the 1953 district title, despite having a lo~ing record. In 1957, the Warriors were 19-~. led by Gary George and Don Daily, and copped the second annual Crete-Monee Holiday Tournament. The following year, after, heavy graduation losses, the team's record dropped off to 0-22. The baseball team had an 8-2 mark in 1956 and a 9-3 record in 1959, led by super pitchers Larry Bucholz and Ed Becker. Unfortunately, that has proved to be the baseball team's last winning season to date. In 1960, a golf team was organized and the following year it began a seven year streak during which it never lost a league title and won several district titles. Jerry Hirsch, Dave Hughes and Jon Hitt all finished third in the state meet at one time or another, and other district and conference medalists have included Steve and Ken Benson, Carl Madory, Tim Eckman and Jim McCullough in the 19605 and Phil Kline and Jim Hamann in the 1970s. The cross country program got under way in 1962, and though Crete had the Devlin brotl;lers, Pete and Jim, who finished first consistently in the 19605, and Craig Stanley in the 19705, it wasn't until 1974 that the Warriors captured a league title in the sport. · Wrestling began the same year, and the Warriors sent Jerry ·Grasser and Hal Hothan (40-3 over two years) to the sectionals in the mid-19605, but Crete never had a wrestler qualify for state until Tim Staley in 1974 and Bob Loy and Joe Rossi in 1975 accomplished the feat. Also, the best that the school has ever done in conference is a second place finish in . 1967, Hothan's senior year. In 1961, Dale Peters achieved what no other athlete at Crete- Monee has ever done: he was named most valuable player in football, basketball, baseball and track, competing in two spring sports. Two years later, the Warriors won the first Southeast Suburban Conference track meet, hosted by Crete, by a margin of 49 1h -49 over T. F . North . In 1969 they repeated as champions, led by Maker and Roger Einbecker, and put together two in a row in SICA South in 1974 and 1975 paced by sprinters Greg Gurtler and ·Lacefield. A gymnastics team was formed in 1966 and competed through 1970 before it died out. The tennis team first appeared in 1970, but didn 't compete again until 1974. The basketbaU team suffered a long dry spell in the 19605 before compiling a winning record of 15-9 in 1966 behind superstar Bruce Butchko, who averaged 25 points a ,game and later started for Southern Illinois University. The :warriors were 15-10 in 1969, and the 19705 saw Bill Michalski break the career scoring record that Tom Storms had held for 24 years as the Warrior cagers put together three winning seasons in a row and won the first regional game in Crete history. At the same time, the G.A.A. program that had its origins in the 1930s developed into nine girls varsity teams. Although all the 'teams were losers in 1974, they have all become competitive and this spring, the track team picked up Crete-Monee's first girls conference title. The gradual, yearly imprqvement of the girls athletic program sounds an optimistic note for all teams at Crete-Monee. Quite possibly, a Tricentennial look at Warrior teams will reveal an even richer heritage all around.

Incidents And Accidents Mrs. Beardsley, who keeps a boarding-house in St. Louis, the other day put a spoonful of arsenic in some pie-crust she. was making, having mistaken it for yeast powder. The first three who partook of the pie were thrown immediately into spasms, which caused suspicion, and the others refrained from eating. The dose, however, proved too large to result fatally, and with the help of a physician the sufferers soon regained their composure of stomach. Moral: Don't eat pastry raised with arsenic. While three men were engaged in adjusting some staging at the Centennial building in Philadelphia, the other morning, the supports gave way and they .were precipitated a distance of eighty feet to the ground. They were instantly killed. This makes ten lives which have thus far been l,ost on the Centennial buildings. Rev. Geo. Millar preached a splendid sermon in the Congregational church last Sunday, his topic being "What of your Life?" Prof. Reno preached last Sunday morning and evening, and we have heard many favorable comments from members of the Methodist church. t ·:. * .... * * * * * * * * * *.* * * * * * * * * * * •.* * * * ~\ ~The Great~ Buy Centennial: . . * ** TRft1J Alia the only travel agency !*~ in town named after your town ** * . * : _Acapulco Holiday $ 31 9 American Airlines * ** Features included:. per dbl occ. ** .ew,u : • Round Trip Air TICket • 7 Night Luxury Hotel Jt·· 484 Cass (Cass and Main) Jt,' • Round Trip Limo Transfer Phone 672-6506 Sorry, We're So Young WeDon'tRecall but we're happy to be a .part of the business community of Crete••. and pleased to thlnlc of the women, post, present and future who have helped malce our country great I Q Woman's World ·~ ~~ Main St Phone: 672-7030 Crete Put Your Trust With The Experts Church and School 1610 Main St. Truth and Purity for over 65 years in Crete Pastor R.

Then there were 700 students in grades 1-12, all housed in two buildings. Today there are 5747 students in grades K-12 attending classes in nine schools. What's more, CreteMonee is one of the few school districts in the state that is still growing at a steady and rapid rate . When the district was formed, 15 separate school districts in Crete and Monee Townships were consolidated. All of these outlying schools had accommodated grades 1-8. High school classes were held in a two story addition to what is now Crete Elementary School. In fact , before consolidation Crete had offered four years of high school for less than a decade . Prior to 1939, students had started at Crete and finished at Bloom or Peotone. n1e consolidation became ot ficial July 1. 1948. Verne Crackle was the combined Superintendent of Schools and Principal of Crete Elementary . Lynn Wiley was made principal of Crete High Scho.ll . Crackle went on to become Will County Superintendent of Schools for about 14 years and has since retired . Wiley went on to become Superintendent in the Crete-Monee District and is now Crete Township Assessor . Owen Springer became the first full time Crete Elementary Principal in the <'arty '50s. Only one building that predates unit consolidation is still in use today . That is Crete Elementary, built in 1928, and added onto four times so far, with a $1.2 million renovation and expansion now. under discussion. A new Monee elementary scnool was constructed in 1953, which served as an adjunct to the old Monee school constructed in 1905. The latter venerable two story· structure was abandoned for school purposes in 1968 as unsafe, and has since been remodeled for courtroom facilities . The new' Monee school has had five additions since its erection . Crete-Monee High School was constructed in 1953 in Crete to serve the entire district. Two hundred ninety seven students moved into this building in 1954. It has since suffered through six additions and is again at capacity. Park Forest was devloping very rapidly in the early 1950's and the ever increasing enrollment presented a problem there. Classes were started in homes built and partitioned to form two classrooms each. They were held in these homes for several years, with the seventh and· eighth graders being transported to Monee. The first phase of Talala Elementary School in Park Forest was built in 1957 and some of the home classrooms abandoned. Ten new classrooms and a library were added at Talala in 1958, and more home classrooms closed. The final three homes serving school needs in Park Forest were not phased out until 1962 when St. Mary school opened in Park Forest, taking some of the load off Talala . The school had a second addition in 1970 and a third is being contemplated. Balmoral and Meadowood Schools were both built in 1960 in rural Crete Township , with identical floor plans. Despite two subsequent additions at Meadowood, it is still less than half the size of Balmoral. Development in the Meadowood sector failed to take place a~ predicted. A third small addition there is currently being con· sidered. Additions to Balmoral came in 1967 and 1970. The latter marked a departure for the district, when fifth and sixth grades were placed in the first "open concept" classroom spaces. Grades K-4 remain in traditional structured classrooms. The first junior high in the district, Hubbard Trail, was built in 1963. All seventh and eighth graders had previously been housed at Crete and Monee Elementary schools. With the construction of Hubbard Trail, the district switched to a 6-3-3 plan, which was heralded as a change in educational philosophy, but also alleviated overcrowding at the high school by siphoning off the freshman class. Later the 6-3-3 plan was abandoned as Hubbard Trail became overcrowded and additions at the high school made room for the freshman again. By 1965, the school count stood at five elementaries, one junior high, and one high school. Enrollment totaled 3565 and the faculty numbered 178. Just the year before, the district opened an administration center on First Street in Crete. Up to that point, the superintendent and the high school principal shared one office with back-to-back desks at the high school. The only other administrators at that time were a business manager and a superintendent of buildings and grounds. Today there are 11 administrators or personnel with district-wide responsibilities. That ALTHOUGH THES~ ~CHOOL childr~n seem to be enjoying their school activities at Crete Elementary school, the school buJ_Id•.ng wa~ not destmed to be standing much longer. On June 12, 1928, a fire destroyed the Crete Elementary l;lulldmg wh1ch had housed Crete students for 57 years.

When the present school was begun the Wilder school joined it and in 1920 the Piepenbrink school consolidated with the village school on trial. The average attendance in each room in 1873 was sixty scholars, there being only two rooms used.

It is located on one of the finest agricultural regions in the State, and has a population of about eleven hundred people. The village was laid out in 1846 by Willard Wood, who ... had the first house built.. .the same year <Editor's Note : Due to the age of the original copy of the Crete Enterprise, certain segments of the paper are illegible), and occupied it as a hotel, and also kept the first post-<>ffice. Messrs. Jos. Huntly and Henry Barrett were the first merchants of Crete, and in 1846 Jos. Huntly erected the first store. The school was taught by Willard Wood, in 1837-8, just north of the village. The first Physician was Dr. G. W. Minard, who settled in 1848, and still resides in the place doing a flouri~hing business. The Chicago, Danv11le & Vincennes R.R . was completed through the place in 1869. CHURCHES Crete can boast of having three Churches: The Congregational, Methodist and German Lutheran. The Congregational Church was organized in 1852 by Rev . N. C. Clark . Their present church building was completed and dedicated in June 1852. The Methodist Chur.ch of Crete was organized in January, 1839, by Rev . ~ · R. Beggs at Thorn Grove, and m March, 1841 was transferred to Crete Village. The German Lutheran Church of Crete was formed in the winter of 1857. Their present church building was erected in 1860, just south of the village. SCHOOLS The people of Crete have not been behind their neighbors in the way of public schools. The present excellent building was erected in 1872 at a cost of $5,500. It is a large two story wooden building, pleasantly located in the edge of the grove. It is divided into four departments, which are presided over by competent teachers. The house is furnished with the best patent seats and desks, and is capable of seating three hundred pupils. The school is very popular and well patronized, and reflects great credit upon the people of Crete. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The corporal who had introduced me to the pilot apparently had detected the sudden change in the color of my complexion, because he chuckled and shoved a map under my nose. "Here " he said "You can compose yo~rself by ~tudying tonight's target." I said nothing, but I certainly didn't appreciate his humor. Thirty minutes later I was shakIng hands with the crew members of our big four-motored bomber. There were the co-pilot, bombardier, navigator, and four other gunners. From 'Old Kentucky.' One of the gunners inquired: "Where you from, Sarge?" When l repJ.ied "Kentucky," the diminutive, wiry bombardier shoved his hand out and said: "Boy, give me five. That's where I'm from, too. Louisville's my home." And so again, I was shaking the hand of the bombardier, Second Lieut. Jesse W. Crume, U. S. AriT).y, from Louisville. We eased away from the group, sat on the steps of the operations hut and 'talked of mutual acquaintances back in Louisville until we boarded the truck for the field. As we rumbled along the bumpy road toward H enderson Field, where our plane l!waited us, Lieutenant Crume assured me Jerry was an excellent pilot and that he would bring us back safely. "But what about the J a p ackack?" I a sked. "Well," shot back Lieutenant Crume, "There's not much Jerry can do about that. We can only hope the Japs don't get us in their searchlights tonight." In 45 minutes we were to take off. Speaking to me, Lieutenant Crume said: "Bolser, we have a fine group of boy.s in our outfit. They're regular guys. And you can see how they feel about this thing. There are only two things they give a damn about now. One is bombing hell out of the Japs, and the other is getting the war over as quickly as possible." 3 e rry addressed the group. "What'll it be this morning?" he asked. "Will we bail out or stay together and make a water landing? " Lieutenant Crume explained to me that the crew decides before each bombing hop whether they will go down in their parachutes or make a forced landing. Will Land in Water. The decision that night was that if we get hit we would try to make a water landing. I concurred in the decision. Jerry said he felt we would have a better chance to survive if we made a water landing and remained together in the rubber boat with which our bomber was equipped. He explained that the jungle surrounding the target was practically impenetrable. We would stand little chance to survive if we parachuted into the wilderness. I listened intently to the discussion, but all the time I was saying to myself: "These guys think of the most pleasant topics." Suddenly the chatt2r was smothered by the crack of one plane motor backfiring as it was started. In a few minutes we were deafened by the noise of all four motors. Lieutenant Crume poked me and shouted in my ear: "All aboard." I followed the crew as they crawled through the belly door. I was the last aboard. The others crowded forward. I found myself standing on the catwalk between the bomb racks. They were loaded to capacity with their lethal charges. Jerry raced the lnotors for the usual test. In a few minutes we were rumbling down the strip on the take-off. I felt I was in a precarious spot. Jcould only hope that the giant Liberator cleared the cocoanut trees at the end of the field . I was relieved as I felt the wheels leave the metal strips on the field and rise into the darkness over Henderson Field. We gained altitude. Soon we were heading toward our target. Out over the water I was told to go aft to my station. I examined my machine gun. (The marine corps public relations section of which I am a member was trained in aerial gunnery before leaving the States.) Then I fixed the communications set on my head and plugged in for a test. Jerry, at the controls, was singing. I looked at my watch. We still had a lot of flying ahead of us. Tum on Oxygen. At 12,000 feet Jerry called over the 'phone suggesting that we start using oxygen. I welcomed the word for I was beginning to feel groggy from lack of heavy air. I also felt the bite of the cold a t that height and wriggled into the fleece-lined leather suit. "Bolser," Lieutenant Crume called over the 'phone, "just wanted to let you know that when I say 'bombs away' you might take a look down and see how my eye is tonight. Jerry will bank just after I let 'em go and you should get a pretty good look." Thirty minutes away from the target J erry called back to prepare the waist guns. The other waist gunne r and I opened the windows. I fed the ammunition belt into the gun and charged it. It was ready for action as I poked it through the window. The temperature a t our height was so cold that my fin gers were stiff by the time I had adjusted my g un. A few seconds later I got the scare of my life. To the rig)tt of the plane a ball of fire burst . At the same time came J erry's voice: "We're just about over the t arget." I caught myself shying away as a second burst of fire came nearer our plane. J erry didn't have to tell me we were nearing the target. The Japs were spewing anti-aircraft shells up a t us.

The November 9 test will be open to those who have graduated from high school or are in their final term and who will be 17 but not 22 years of age on March 1, 1944. Many young men are now in college under the army and navy programs. Many of these were high school seniors last spring when they took the first t est on April 2. Those who failed to qualify on the April 2 test are also eligible for the test on November 9 provided they have not enlisted or been inducted in the armed services. Those between 17 and 20 years of age on March 1, 1944, who designate navy preference a nd qualify in the test may be selected for the navy college program. They serve on active duty , in uniform and under military discipline and receive the pay of the lowest enlisted grade. Seventeen-year-olds who designate army preference a nd qualify in tbe t est are offered military scholarships in the army specialized training r eserve program. Those between 18 and 22 who qualify and designate army preference are earmarked for special consideration for the ASTP after induction. Detailed information on the a rmy specialized training program, the navy college program and the qualifying t est Ctn November 9 has been prepared by the army and navy a nd forwarded by the U. S. Office of Education to high school principals, who will provide prospective candidates with the booklet, "Qualifying Test for Civilians." How Devildogs Stormed a Hill in Battle of Rairoko Harbor "We had already fought for five days on Vangunu island, when we were rushed north to join in the Battle of Bairoka Harbor. We were 200 yards from the Jap ridge, when snipers forced us to take cover." The story of the squad's last 25 yards was disclosed, a t a rear bnse r est camp, by Corp. William J. Haines. He told Staff Sergt. Samuel Stavisky, marine combat correspondent. . '"But we were ordered to keep driving ahead. So we kept at it, and my squad got within 25 yards of the top, when all h ell broke loose. "Corporal Strauss was hit bad, through the chest. We pick ed up his tripod a nd ammunition and kept on . "We almost made it. Only five feet to go, when Thornburg, an ammunition carrier, and Shipp, who was bringing up the gun, were hit. Thornburg was killed outright. "Hacker grabbed up the machine gun, and stuck it behind the cover of a banyan tree. We turned to give Shipp first aid. I was reaching into my pocket for the morphine, when a sniper's bullet pierced my helmet, but it only scratched my head. "I still wasn't sure whether or not I'd been hit, but there I was, still on my feet, so I pushed up to the top of the hill with Hacker, and we got the gun in position, a nd fired a belt of ammunition before things quieted down. Then we got word back on our situation." Due to an unusually large demand and current war conditions. slightly more time is required in !llling orders !or a f.cw of the most popul:~r pattern numbers.

There's not one dish in any cooklng repertory that can even come close to fill the place of soup. It can be the appetite - tickler to start the meal, or a light, inspired concoction to do for luncheon, or a steaming hot, sturdy soup to be the meat, the vegetable and the main dish for a cool night's dinner while the wind blows hard outside. If any crisis arises as far as your own point - ration allowance, then start exploring the fascinating possibilities of a few meaty bones, celery leaves, pungent onion, and a spray of parsley, chives, marjoram or chevril. Fat, cozy tureens of soup will ward off any hunger now as they have always done when food supplies are slender. There's no doubt that the tureen will again become a part of your kitchen equipment-at least for the duration. You can make delicious soup out of almost anything-and soup can make the meal if you serve it with plenty of unrationed crackers. There are literally all kinds of these to go with any soup you care to name. Here's a fish chowder that is rich, savory and thoroughly satisfying. Serve it with common or pilot crackers to make the meal. Or, if you prefer, oyster crackers, the round tasty type, saltines or plain soda crackers-any one will be a natural accompaniment: •Fish Chowder. {Serves 8) 3 pounds haddock or cod 3 potatoes, sliced 3 medium-sized onions, chopped 3 slices salt pork, diced 8 crackers 1 quart milk 1 pint cream 1 tablespoon butter or margarine Salt and pepper Cook fish in boiling water until done. Remove fish from water and cook potatoes and onions in fish water until soft. Fry salt pork until crisp. Skin and bone fish and add with pork scraps, to chowder. Soalt split crackers in mille Heat milk and cream with crackers, and add to chowder. Add butter or margarine, salt and pepper. Here is another savory soup which make a perfect main dish for the meal: wm Lynn Says: Card: Now that butter has gone up in point value, you may have to learn to use other spreads such as margarine. Be sure to select a margarine that gives you a definite guarantee of the amount of vita min with which it is enriched. To color the margarine, let it soften until smooth and creamy, add vegetable coloring and blend together. Let harden before using, if you want to cut it in squares. Butter can also be stretched with a number of commercial or other stretchers. Select a stretcher that gives good consistency and does not change flavor. If you're doing without a great deal of butter, her e' s how: Us e margarines or shortenings for all cooking or baking. Save bacon and other drippings to use for frying. Occas iona lly, u se j a ms, jelly and honey for spreads. Sandwiches can be spread with mayonnaise if the butter supply is low.

The paint is discolored and brown in some places, due to mildew. How can this be removed? Is there any kind of moistureproof paint that we can use? Answer: Your first problem is to get at the cause of the condition. If moisture penetrates through the outside walls (I presume they are brick or stone), they should be coated with a colorless liquid waterproofing or with a damp-proof cement paint- the kind that comes in powder form to be mixed with water. the condition occurs only during the summer, the trouble may come from condensation caused by the plaster having been applied directly on the stone or brick walls. If such is the case, the inside walls should be furred out and finished with a gypsum or insulating board. Inside paint of any kind will not help. Before repainting, remove the mildew by rubbing with sandpaper-then wash with yellow laundry soap, rinse well and allow to dry. uncomfortable.

The water is heated by an oil burner and a hot-wa te r coil in the kitchen stove. Answer : Overheating will cause this condition. It may help to run the oil burne r at a slower r a te . P...nother possible rea son for the rumbling is tha t the wa ter back in the stove is not set exa ctly lev el. If a coil is used, it should be level or, better yet, so that ther e is a continual rise from the c old-water inle t to the hot-water outlet. A pipe of larger diameter in the coil m a y be advisable.

Question: Is there any home mefu. od for repairing a painted leatheJ screen which was torn badly? Answer: The leather will have to be tak~n off the screen, so that the repair can be made tm the reverse side. Cut a piece of soft leather or stout fabric, and cement it to the back of the torn area, using care to attach the torn edges to the patch. For a neat joint, the fuzz along the edges should be clipped off. Use top quality glue. for handkerchiefs and fine things. Also the shelf covers of bright oilcloth with prepared edging as a finish.

Daedalus appear:; in dassic. legends as tlw TJ omas Edison and Orville Wright of Gn'ek cinlization 3.000 years ago. He invented a wooden cow and a mechanical soldier of bronze Minos, king of Crete, commissioned him to invent a new klnd of palace. The result was the Labyrinth at !~nossos. whose maze of intricately winding 'corridors gave a word to the English language. After a dispute the king imprisoned the inventor and his son, and as a final precaution against therr escape from the island ordered every ship to be searched for stowaways. Then Daedalus gave the first demonstration of what is today a truism among military experts-that control of the land and sea is not secure without control of the air as well. Borrowing directly from the birds, he joined feathers to make four big wings. He and Icarus attached the wings to their arms with wax. By a combination of iliding and flapping, they soared from the guarded shores of Crete. The island of their take-off, by another coincidence, was captured by the Germans in 1941 in the world's first mass demonstratwr. of glider attack.

I. By BAUKHAGE Nctvs Analyst and Commcntctor. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Wasl:ington, D. C. As the political campaign, which will be oveT in a short year, begins to increase in tempo, it is interesting to note that noticeable shock recorded by the reporters at a recent White House press and radio conference when the President tossed off that phrase "when I am out of the White House." Taken in the context, it was immediately clear that the President did not delimit the time element in this statement and there was no real justification for the startled pause when pencils stopped scribbling and heads and eyebrows went up at the presidential remark. Mr. Roosevelt was merely pointing out, in connection with the postwar rubber situation that he believed that any propos~d tariff to protect the synthetic rubber plants after the war should be vetoed, and he implied that any President who vetoed such a measure might stir up a lot of opposition from the synthetic rubber manufacturers. But we have become so accustomed to the idea that Mr. Roosevelt himself thinks only in terms of his own regime without time or other . limitations, that an expression which seemed to indicate the opposite naturally caused a stir. However, it is entirely possible that Mr. Roosevelt will not be a candidate in 1944. There are even those who enjoy making rash prophecies who are already saying he has made up his mind not to run at all under any circumstances. This type of prediction is accepted in Washington as being in that class of guesses which have about a 40-60 chance of being right. But closer observers who do not choose to guess the President's inner thoughts but are thoroughly familiar with his manner of thinking, deduce, from wha1 they believe is past experience, 1hat he will not be a candidate if the war is over by next spring. This is contrary to earlier prognostications that his desire to be President when the blue-prints for the postwar wQrld are being drawn would incline him toward running for a fourth term. The explanation is that he will not run unless he has more than an even chance of winning. End of Conflict Although none of the army or navy officers of the top command will allow themselves to be quoted as saying the wur will end early in 1944, a number of bolder and less constrained military folk are willing to say this is possible. It is interesting to consider that a year ago this summer, when many believed that invasion of northern Europe by the Allies would be undertaken by the spring of 1943, few people were predicting, even under such circumstances, an end of the war early in 1944. Take for instance a typical comment in a leading periodical (Harper's) written very little over a year ago in which it was said that Germany must complete the conquest of key positions in Russia, must halt or control the Anglo-American onslaught from the air, and must hold northern Africa for a sortie in the Middle East. When we co,nsider what has happened since, we can see the progress which has been made. Far from any action in which the word "conquest" could be used, the Wehrmacht in Russia has been driven beyond its last Russian defense lines in many places. The dream of an African empire has become the reality of bitter defeat and despite desperate defense measures, the most powerful air blows are being struck against the Reich. Japanese Situation Within the year, Japan's power has begun to crumble at a rate and in a manner which makes it plain that she will not have to be beaten back island by island and every Jap on foreign soil killed. The Mikado's "unconqucrables" have become exceedingly adept at getting away from points once expected to be last stands, with remarkable alacrity and apparent satisfaction in their own retreatability. Therefore, it is not all impossible that the President, if he intends voluntarily to retire with the end of the fighting, means that he will be at "out of the -White House" at his own behest, before the ides of November, '44. This situation, if it does arise, imposes an interesting problem for the Democrats. It is pretty generally agreed that the conservative element in the Democratic party has been gaining in power in the last months when the President bestowed posi· tions of key importance on the right wing of the party while many New Dealers faded into the background. When Vice President Wallace, whom it was taken for granted would be the President's choice as a suc· cessor, was dropped and his activities placed in the more conservative hands of Messrs. Hull, Crowley, et al., it was plain that the original New Dealers were being relegated to the rear of the hall. GOP Attitude And while the burning highlight:: of the administration portrait are being toned down to more sober hues, the Republicans seem to be outdoing themselves in an effort to show that they can make use of the bright lexicon of youth as a reference work and select from it promising shibboleths who speak of action rather than reaction. Of course, Mr. Willkie does no1 speak for the Republican party but he has a following which his supporters hope will be reinforced by disgruntled former New Dealers as well as others whose leanings, al· though they have never been such that they could wholeheartedly sup. port a Democratic regime, are still far enough left to demand the most progressive candidate offered under any other respectable banner. Meanwhile, of course, the President must, according to the inviolable principles of politics, show no signs of intending to withdraw, since it is written that you can't control your party unless there is a fair chance that you are going to continue to be its active head. Our political campai!P"• of 1944 is bound to be affected by the tide of battle abroad. HIGHLIGHTS • :MAESTRO: Ben Bernie, the "01' Maestro" of radio fame, is dead at 50 in Beverly Hills, Calif.

SURGERY: A new "thread" for suturing arm and leg nerves and for other delicate operations, is being used by army surgeons. The "thread" is extremely fine wire, almost invisible to the naked eye. It is made of tantalum, a rare metal. Surgeons say one of the advantages of tantalum wire sutures is that they can be observed by X-ray during the healing process. A new butter extender called "Dyne" has been developed by the dairy department of the University of Wisconsin. It will be on the market shortly, says Dr. K. G.

Him and four strangers here? Seems like I was camped on Crazy Woman then." Lew stared at him. "The bank in Ox Bow?" Willy nodded. "But was a man to hunt some trouble now he'd see why so many Cross T horses go loose· herded up Crazy Woman. That would be at nighttime, early." "Tonight?" "No, already made it. Was some gunshot late this afternoon which must have hurried 'em. If it was this nigger tomorrow going down the valley he'd keep to the east side. That's talk, though. Maybe some sort wouldn't listen." "Maybe he wouldn't," Lew agreed and smiled. "Maybe he'd like to know. " "He'll find tracks then," Willy of· fered. "They're plain enough. But was it me I'd have old Silverbell here ready." He stroked the slender barrel of his needle gun. Through a little silent time, while Willy NicHe's head drooped and he seemed to doze, Lew sorted out the old man's information. He felt a grimly troubled meaning in that none of these things had been in Tom Arnold's letter. The bank in Ox Bow belonged to Arnold; its robbery, he knew, could be pret· ty bad. What puzzled him, wholly unexplainable, was this business of loose horses bc>ing run up Crazy Woman to the Staked Plain. If it was rustling, Arnold or his foreman, Clay Manning,' should be more on watch than that. The trail drive would need every saddle animal the Cross T had. And Steve . . . "Willy," he asked, "you're sure it was Steve riding that night of t.~e robbery?" Old Willy opened one eye. "Certain," he said and closed it. There was no answer to that. Things happen in a year. Even twelve months ago, Lew remembered, Steve's young rebelliop had turned into violent ways. He was coming back, perhaps, just in time. For he and Steve had grown up together in a close companionship, more confiding than between father and son. Everything Tom Arnold had built here in Texas was planned around his boy. Still there was that antagonism between them, a reckless, high-strung nature fighting the strict, unsparing one of the man. Inevitably Steve brought up his sister Joy. Lew bent forward and knocked his pipe out against his boot toe. Behind all his thinking tonight was one question. He asked it now. "Willy, when did Tom's girl marry Clay Manning?" Willy's head lifted. His gray eyes squinted brightly. "Never did. There'!; been none of that on the Cross T. Why not, this child couldn't say. But there's somebody could make a better man for her. Well, he could!" "No," Lew said. "It's the sleek ~~~~~ they run to, Willy. You know ready for bed. He had turned into the dark toward his unrolled blankets when something sailed past him and fell with a soft thud. He stooped and pushed the unburned ends of cottonwood together and crouched there, waiting. It was not until the little flame leaped up, shedding a wide circle of light, that a figure stepped from the shadows. Even then he didn't move. He sat wholly still, watching Willy Nickle, feeling as he always did that thJs was a ghost shape from out of a faroff past. He came forward silently on deer· skin moccasins with high tops laced halfway to his knees, a small, thin, fragile-looking man, ageless. Long chestnut hair brushed his shoulders, but his cheeks and chin were shaved clean. His face was very dark, yet oddly smooth and as gentle as a child's except for the sharp, quick brightness of its small gray eyes. "How are you, Willy?" Lew said and got no answer. His only greeting was a nod as the old man came from the shadows with an ancient needle gun cuddled like a baby across his thin chest. Always it was not until three deep puffs of kinn!kinnick hit old Willy's brain with their terrific force tha't talk seemed jolted out of him. Even then it was veiled talk of his own strange kind. You never learned anything from Willy Nickle by bluntly asking questions. He took his three puffs and lifted his head and looked sharply all around him. "Well!" he said suddenly. "It has been some. I do say!" His squinted gray eyes came back. Lew nodded. "A year now come calf time," he said. "A year in CHAPTER I Even those names that meant so much have vanished now, so that you will look in vain for Ox Bow or Dripping Spring or the valley of the Little Comanche on any recent map. And it is hard to believe that this land where !:lashing beacons now guide the roaring course of planes by night, and by day motorcars dart effortlessly across its endless miles, was then but a wild and rolling prairie of buffalo grass, and a journey of any length had no certain ending, and all of a restless nation seemed to be following the sun in a mad race set off by the cry, "Go West, young man, go West! "-not sixty years ago. This was a time of new and un· believable happenings. Pullman's Golden Palace cars were running clear to the Pacific, with their red velvet curtained windows, their gas lamps that made the coaches as brilliant as a ladies' drawing room and their sleeping compartments in which many women still refused to undress when going to bed at night. Three thousand Negroes were marching afoot from Alabama, with their women and children and half· starved dogs, to claim the forty acres of land and the span of mules which the state of Kansas promised. Boxcar emigrant trains rolled out of the East one upon another, spew· ing settlers along the way, and the high-topped Pittsburg wagons lum· bered West behind their ox teams, to meet-not a barren prairie-but the red swarms of Texas longhorns coming up from the South. For this was a time when the man in the saddle was king of the plains and prairie; all others were hoe· n1en, beneath him, to be swept aside by the relentless march of his trail herds. Ten million Texas longhorns that had run wild since the ~ebel· lion were finding a market m the shipping towns of the new railroads; a thousand cattle ranches were be· ing made in the new lands of Montana and Wyoming, where cattle had never been before. Up that trail, twelve hundred miles long, unchecked by storm or drouth, by rov· ing bands of Comanches or the barbed wire of the hoe-men, the great flood poured northward, a million head in a single year. This was a time of a young man's opportunity. Whatever a man was going to be depended only upon himself.

A safe rule ln housing laying hens is to allow fut.lr square feet of floor space for N • .:h bird of breeds such as PJymoulli Rock, Rhode Island Red and Wyandotte. Smaller birds, such as Leghorns, can get along with about 3\.7 square feet a bird. Overcrowding also results in increased sickness and death losses in the flock. The bad effects of temporary overcrowding can be reduced • by providing more feed hoppers, watering fountains and deeper litter, but culling Hocks to remove the ' 1 drones should not be delayed too long. Although more than four square feet of space is not likely to increase production, less room will certainly mean fewer eggs than the Hock would otherwise lay. ..l U. S. Trusury 1l•partm~r.1 Leap Year Leap year generally, but not always, occurs at four-year intervals. The true astronom ical year, however, is 365 days, fh"e !·ours. 48 minutes and 46 seconds, while the calendar ye(?.r is an even 365 days. This means that for each calendar year that is observed tl1ere is a surplus of nearly six hours in the astronomica1 year. This is absorbed by adding one day to the calendar at four-year intervals. But this, then, gives the average calendar year a length of 11 minutes and 14 o;cconds in excess of the true astro:;nomical year. To make the necessary adjustP1ents in the calendar the last year of each century is a leap year only when the number of the century is divisible by four (1600, 2000, etc.) and the years which are multiples of 4000 are obsened as common, and not leap yt.:ars.

The corporal who had introduced me to the pilot apparently had detected the sudden change in the color of my complexion, because he chuckled and shoved a map under my nose. "Here " he said "You can compose yo~rself by ~tudying tonight's target." I said nothing, but I certainly didn't appreciate his humor. Thirty minutes later I was shakIng hands with the crew members of our big four-motored bomber. There were the co-pilot, bombardier, navigator, and four other gunners. From 'Old Kentucky.' One of the gunners inquired: "Where you from, Sarge?" When l repJ.ied "Kentucky," the diminutive, wiry bombardier shoved his hand out and said: "Boy, give me five. That's where I'm from, too. Louisville's my home." And so again, I was shaking the hand of the bombardier, Second Lieut. Jesse W. Crume, U. S. AriT).y, from Louisville. We eased away from the group, sat on the steps of the operations hut and 'talked of mutual acquaintances back in Louisville until we boarded the truck for the field. As we rumbled along the bumpy road toward H enderson Field, where our plane l!waited us, Lieutenant Crume assured me Jerry was an excellent pilot and that he would bring us back safely. "But what about the J a p ackack?" I a sked. "Well," shot back Lieutenant Crume, "There's not much Jerry can do about that. We can only hope the Japs don't get us in their searchlights tonight." In 45 minutes we were to take off. Speaking to me, Lieutenant Crume said: "Bolser, we have a fine group of boy.s in our outfit. They're regular guys. And you can see how they feel about this thing. There are only two things they give a damn about now. One is bombing hell out of the Japs, and the other is getting the war over as quickly as possible." 3 e rry addressed the group. "What'll it be this morning?" he asked. "Will we bail out or stay together and make a water landing? " Lieutenant Crume explained to me that the crew decides before each bombing hop whether they will go down in their parachutes or make a forced landing. Will Land in Water. The decision that night was that if we get hit we would try to make a water landing. I concurred in the decision. Jerry said he felt we would have a better chance to survive if we made a water landing and remained together in the rubber boat with which our bomber was equipped. He explained that the jungle surrounding the target was practically impenetrable. We would stand little chance to survive if we parachuted into the wilderness. I listened intently to the discussion, but all the time I was saying to myself: "These guys think of the most pleasant topics." Suddenly the chatt2r was smothered by the crack of one plane motor backfiring as it was started. In a few minutes we were deafened by the noise of all four motors. Lieutenant Crume poked me and shouted in my ear: "All aboard." I followed the crew as they crawled through the belly door. I was the last aboard. The others crowded forward. I found myself standing on the catwalk between the bomb racks. They were loaded to capacity with their lethal charges. Jerry raced the lnotors for the usual test. In a few minutes we were rumbling down the strip on the take-off. I felt I was in a precarious spot. Jcould only hope that the giant Liberator cleared the cocoanut trees at the end of the field . I was relieved as I felt the wheels leave the metal strips on the field and rise into the darkness over Henderson Field. We gained altitude. Soon we were heading toward our target. Out over the water I was told to go aft to my station. I examined my machine gun. (The marine corps public relations section of which I am a member was trained in aerial gunnery before leaving the States.) Then I fixed the communications set on my head and plugged in for a test. Jerry, at the controls, was singing. I looked at my watch. We still had a lot of flying ahead of us. Tum on Oxygen. At 12,000 feet Jerry called over the 'phone suggesting that we start using oxygen. I welcomed the word for I was beginning to feel groggy from lack of heavy air. I also felt the bite of the cold a t that height and wriggled into the fleece-lined leather suit. "Bolser," Lieutenant Crume called over the 'phone, "just wanted to let you know that when I say 'bombs away' you might take a look down and see how my eye is tonight. Jerry will bank just after I let 'em go and you should get a pretty good look." Thirty minutes away from the target J erry called back to prepare the waist guns. The other waist gunne r and I opened the windows. I fed the ammunition belt into the gun and charged it. It was ready for action as I poked it through the window. The temperature a t our height was so cold that my fin gers were stiff by the time I had adjusted my g un. A few seconds later I got the scare of my life. To the rig)tt of the plane a ball of fire burst . At the same time came J erry's voice: "We're just about over the t arget." I caught myself shying away as a second burst of fire came nearer our plane. J erry didn't have to tell me we were nearing the target. The Japs were spewing anti-aircraft shells up a t us.

The November 9 test will be open to those who have graduated from high school or are in their final term and who will be 17 but not 22 years of age on March 1, 1944. Many young men are now in college under the army and navy programs. Many of these were high school seniors last spring when they took the first t est on April 2. Those who failed to qualify on the April 2 test are also eligible for the test on November 9 provided they have not enlisted or been inducted in the armed services. Those between 17 and 20 years of age on March 1, 1944, who designate navy preference a nd qualify in the test may be selected for the navy college program. They serve on active duty , in uniform and under military discipline and receive the pay of the lowest enlisted grade. Seventeen-year-olds who designate army preference a nd qualify in tbe t est are offered military scholarships in the army specialized training r eserve program. Those between 18 and 22 who qualify and designate army preference are earmarked for special consideration for the ASTP after induction. Detailed information on the a rmy specialized training program, the navy college program and the qualifying t est Ctn November 9 has been prepared by the army and navy a nd forwarded by the U. S. Office of Education to high school principals, who will provide prospective candidates with the booklet, "Qualifying Test for Civilians." How Devildogs Stormed a Hill in Battle of Rairoko Harbor "We had already fought for five days on Vangunu island, when we were rushed north to join in the Battle of Bairoka Harbor. We were 200 yards from the Jap ridge, when snipers forced us to take cover." The story of the squad's last 25 yards was disclosed, a t a rear bnse r est camp, by Corp. William J. Haines. He told Staff Sergt. Samuel Stavisky, marine combat correspondent. . '"But we were ordered to keep driving ahead. So we kept at it, and my squad got within 25 yards of the top, when all h ell broke loose. "Corporal Strauss was hit bad, through the chest. We pick ed up his tripod a nd ammunition and kept on . "We almost made it. Only five feet to go, when Thornburg, an ammunition carrier, and Shipp, who was bringing up the gun, were hit. Thornburg was killed outright. "Hacker grabbed up the machine gun, and stuck it behind the cover of a banyan tree. We turned to give Shipp first aid. I was reaching into my pocket for the morphine, when a sniper's bullet pierced my helmet, but it only scratched my head. "I still wasn't sure whether or not I'd been hit, but there I was, still on my feet, so I pushed up to the top of the hill with Hacker, and we got the gun in position, a nd fired a belt of ammunition before things quieted down. Then we got word back on our situation." Due to an unusually large demand and current war conditions. slightly more time is required in !llling orders !or a f.cw of the most popul:~r pattern numbers.

There's not one dish in any cooklng repertory that can even come close to fill the place of soup. It can be the appetite - tickler to start the meal, or a light, inspired concoction to do for luncheon, or a steaming hot, sturdy soup to be the meat, the vegetable and the main dish for a cool night's dinner while the wind blows hard outside. If any crisis arises as far as your own point - ration allowance, then start exploring the fascinating possibilities of a few meaty bones, celery leaves, pungent onion, and a spray of parsley, chives, marjoram or chevril. Fat, cozy tureens of soup will ward off any hunger now as they have always done when food supplies are slender. There's no doubt that the tureen will again become a part of your kitchen equipment-at least for the duration. You can make delicious soup out of almost anything-and soup can make the meal if you serve it with plenty of unrationed crackers. There are literally all kinds of these to go with any soup you care to name. Here's a fish chowder that is rich, savory and thoroughly satisfying. Serve it with common or pilot crackers to make the meal. Or, if you prefer, oyster crackers, the round tasty type, saltines or plain soda crackers-any one will be a natural accompaniment: •Fish Chowder. {Serves 8) 3 pounds haddock or cod 3 potatoes, sliced 3 medium-sized onions, chopped 3 slices salt pork, diced 8 crackers 1 quart milk 1 pint cream 1 tablespoon butter or margarine Salt and pepper Cook fish in boiling water until done.

Here is another savory soup which make a perfect main dish for the meal: wm Lynn Says: Card: Now that butter has gone up in point value, you may have to learn to use other spreads such as margarine. Be sure to select a margarine that gives you a definite guarantee of the amount of vita min with which it is enriched. To color the margarine, let it soften until smooth and creamy, add vegetable coloring and blend together. Let harden before using, if you want to cut it in squares. Butter can also be stretched with a number of commercial or other stretchers. Select a stretcher that gives good consistency and does not change flavor. If you're doing without a great deal of butter, her e' s how: Us e margarines or shortenings for all cooking or baking. Save bacon and other drippings to use for frying. Occas iona lly, u se j a ms, jelly and honey for spreads. Sandwiches can be spread with mayonnaise if the butter supply is low.

The paint is discolored and brown in some places, due to mildew. How can this be removed? Is there any kind of moistureproof paint that we can use? Answer: Your first problem is to get at the cause of the condition. If moisture penetrates through the outside walls (I presume they are brick or stone), they should be coated with a colorless liquid waterproofing or with a damp-proof cement paint- the kind that comes in powder form to be mixed with water. the condition occurs only during the summer, the trouble may come from condensation caused by the plaster having been applied directly on the stone or brick walls. If such is the case, the inside walls should be furred out and finished with a gypsum or insulating board. Inside paint of any kind will not help. Before repainting, remove the mildew by rubbing with sandpaper-then wash with yellow laundry soap, rinse well and allow to dry. uncomfortable.

P...nother possible rea son for the rumbling is tha t the wa ter back in the stove is not set exa ctly lev el.

Answer: The leather will have to be tak~n off the screen, so that the repair can be made tm the reverse side. Cut a piece of soft leather or stout fabric, and cement it to the back of the torn area, using care to attach the torn edges to the patch.

Read Our Hew Serial--StartinK This Week e , The prehistoric birdmen of the Mediterranean were the inventornrchitect Daedalus and his thrillseeking son, Icurus. Daedalus appear:; in dassic. legends as tlw TJ omas Edison and Orville Wright of Gn'ek cinlization 3.000 years ago. He invented a wooden cow and a mechanical soldier of bronze Minos, king of Crete, commissioned him to invent a new klnd of palace. The result was the Labyrinth at !~nossos. whose maze of intricately winding 'corridors gave a word to the English language. After a dispute the king imprisoned the inventor and his son, and as a final precaution against therr escape from the island ordered every ship to be searched for stowaways. Then Daedalus gave the first demonstration of what is today a truism among military experts-that control of the land and sea is not secure without control of the air as well. Borrowing directly from the birds, he joined feathers to make four big wings. He and Icarus attached the wings to their arms with wax. By a combination of iliding and flapping, they soared from the guarded shores of Crete. The island of their take-off, by another coincidence, was captured by the Germans in 1941 in the world's first mass demonstratwr. of glider attack.

I. By BAUKHAGE Nctvs Analyst and Commcntctor. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Wasl:ington, D. C. As the political campaign, which will be oveT in a short year, begins to increase in tempo, it is interesting to note that noticeable shock recorded by the reporters at a recent White House press and radio conference when the President tossed off that phrase "when I am out of the White House." Taken in the context, it was immediately clear that the President did not delimit the time element in this statement and there was no real justification for the startled pause when pencils stopped scribbling and heads and eyebrows went up at the presidential remark. Mr. Roosevelt was merely pointing out, in connection with the postwar rubber situation that he believed that any propos~d tariff to protect the synthetic rubber plants after the war should be vetoed, and he implied that any President who vetoed such a measure might stir up a lot of opposition from the synthetic rubber manufacturers. But we have become so accustomed to the idea that Mr. Roosevelt himself thinks only in terms of his own regime without time or other . limitations, that an expression which seemed to indicate the opposite naturally caused a stir. However, it is entirely possible that Mr. Roosevelt will not be a candidate in 1944. There are even those who enjoy making rash prophecies who are already saying he has made up his mind not to run at all under any circumstances. This type of prediction is accepted in Washington as being in that class of guesses which have about a 40-60 chance of being right. But closer observers who do not choose to guess the President's inner thoughts but are thoroughly familiar with his manner of thinking, deduce, from wha1 they believe is past experience, 1hat he will not be a candidate if the war is over by next spring. This is contrary to earlier prognostications that his desire to be President when the blue-prints for the postwar wQrld are being drawn would incline him toward running for a fourth term. The explanation is that he will not run unless he has more than an even chance of winning. End of Conflict Although none of the army or navy officers of the top command will allow themselves to be quoted as saying the wur will end early in 1944, a number of bolder and less constrained military folk are willing to say this is possible. It is interesting to consider that a year ago this summer, when many believed that invasion of northern Europe by the Allies would be undertaken by the spring of 1943, few people were predicting, even under such circumstances, an end of the war early in 1944. Take for instance a typical comment in a leading periodical (Harper's) written very little over a year ago in which it was said that Germany must complete the conquest of key positions in Russia, must halt or control the Anglo-American onslaught from the air, and must hold northern Africa for a sortie in the Middle East. When we co,nsider what has happened since, we can see the progress which has been made. Far from any action in which the word "conquest" could be used, the Wehrmacht in Russia has been driven beyond its last Russian defense lines in many places. The dream of an African empire has become the reality of bitter defeat and despite desperate defense measures, the most powerful air blows are being struck against the Reich. Japanese Situation Within the year, Japan's power has begun to crumble at a rate and in a manner which makes it plain that she will not have to be beaten back island by island and every Jap on foreign soil killed. The Mikado's "unconqucrables" have become exceedingly adept at getting away from points once expected to be last stands, with remarkable alacrity and apparent satisfaction in their own retreatability. Therefore, it is not all impossible that the President, if he intends voluntarily to retire with the end of the fighting, means that he will be at "out of the -White House" at his own behest, before the ides of November, '44. This situation, if it does arise, imposes an interesting problem for the Democrats. It is pretty generally agreed that the conservative element in the Democratic party has been gaining in power in the last months when the President bestowed posi· tions of key importance on the right wing of the party while many New Dealers faded into the background. When Vice President Wallace, whom it was taken for granted would be the President's choice as a suc· cessor, was dropped and his activities placed in the more conservative hands of Messrs. Hull, Crowley, et al., it was plain that the original New Dealers were being relegated to the rear of the hall. GOP Attitude And while the burning highlight:: of the administration portrait are being toned down to more sober hues, the Republicans seem to be outdoing themselves in an effort to show that they can make use of the bright lexicon of youth as a reference work and select from it promising shibboleths who speak of action rather than reaction. Of course, Mr. Willkie does no1 speak for the Republican party but he has a following which his supporters hope will be reinforced by disgruntled former New Dealers as well as others whose leanings, al· though they have never been such that they could wholeheartedly sup. port a Democratic regime, are still far enough left to demand the most progressive candidate offered under any other respectable banner. Meanwhile, of course, the President must, according to the inviolable principles of politics, show no signs of intending to withdraw, since it is written that you can't control your party unless there is a fair chance that you are going to continue to be its active head. Our political campai!P"• of 1944 is bound to be affected by the tide of battle abroad. HIGHLIGHTS • :MAESTRO: Ben Bernie, the "01' Maestro" of radio fame, is dead at 50 in Beverly Hills, Calif.

SURGERY: A new "thread" for suturing arm and leg nerves and for other delicate operations, is being used by army surgeons. The "thread" is extremely fine wire, almost invisible to the naked eye. It is made of tantalum, a rare metal. Surgeons say one of the advantages of tantalum wire sutures is that they can be observed by X-ray during the healing process. A new butter extender called "Dyne" has been developed by the dairy department of the University of Wisconsin. It will be on the market shortly, says Dr. K. G. Weckel of the college of agriculture. · "While the product is not a substitute for butter," he explains, "it is expected that it will ease the de rnand for butter and oleor·1argarine ." It is made wholly of dairy products, and is of the consistency of cream cheese. Songs Canned Since 1928, the Archives o!

Him and four strangers here? Seems like I was camped on Crazy Woman then." Lew stared at him. "The bank in Ox Bow?" Willy nodded. "But was a man to hunt some trouble now he'd see why so many Cross T horses go loose· herded up Crazy Woman. That would be at nighttime, early." "Tonight?" "No, already made it. Was some gunshot late this afternoon which must have hurried 'em. If it was this nigger tomorrow going down the valley he'd keep to the east side. That's talk, though. Maybe some sort wouldn't listen." "Maybe he wouldn't," Lew agreed and smiled. "Maybe he'd like to know. " "He'll find tracks then," Willy of· fered. "They're plain enough. But was it me I'd have old Silverbell here ready." He stroked the slender barrel of his needle gun. Through a little silent time, while Willy NicHe's head drooped and he seemed to doze, Lew sorted out the old man's information. He felt a grimly troubled meaning in that none of these things had been in Tom Arnold's letter. The bank in Ox Bow belonged to Arnold; its robbery, he knew, could be pret· ty bad. What puzzled him, wholly unexplainable, was this business of loose horses bc>ing run up Crazy Woman to the Staked Plain. If it was rustling, Arnold or his foreman, Clay Manning,' should be more on watch than that. The trail drive would need every saddle animal the Cross T had. And Steve . . . "Willy," he asked, "you're sure it was Steve riding that night of t.~e robbery?" Old Willy opened one eye. "Certain," he said and closed it. There was no answer to that. Things happen in a year. Even twelve months ago, Lew remembered, Steve's young rebelliop had turned into violent ways. He was coming back, perhaps, just in time. For he and Steve had grown up together in a close companionship, more confiding than between father and son. Everything Tom Arnold had built here in Texas was planned around his boy. Still there was that antagonism between them, a reckless, high-strung nature fighting the strict, unsparing one of the man. Inevitably Steve brought up his sister Joy. Lew bent forward and knocked his pipe out against his boot toe. Behind all his thinking tonight was one question. He asked it now. "Willy, when did Tom's girl marry Clay Manning?" Willy's head lifted. His gray eyes squinted brightly. "Never did. There'!; been none of that on the Cross T. Why not, this child couldn't say. But there's somebody could make a better man for her. Well, he could!" "No," Lew said. "It's the sleek ~~~~~ they run to, Willy. You know ready for bed. He had turned into the dark toward his unrolled blankets when something sailed past him and fell with a soft thud. He stooped and pushed the unburned ends of cottonwood together and crouched there, waiting. It was not until the little flame leaped up, shedding a wide circle of light, that a figure stepped from the shadows. Even then he didn't move. He sat wholly still, watching Willy Nickle, feeling as he always did that thJs was a ghost shape from out of a faroff past. He came forward silently on deer· skin moccasins with high tops laced halfway to his knees, a small, thin, fragile-looking man, ageless. Long chestnut hair brushed his shoulders, but his cheeks and chin were shaved clean. His face was very dark, yet oddly smooth and as gentle as a child's except for the sharp, quick brightness of its small gray eyes. "How are you, Willy?" Lew said and got no answer. His only greeting was a nod as the old man came from the shadows with an ancient needle gun cuddled like a baby across his thin chest. Always it was not until three deep puffs of kinn!kinnick hit old Willy's brain with their terrific force tha't talk seemed jolted out of him. Even then it was veiled talk of his own strange kind. You never learned anything from Willy Nickle by bluntly asking questions. He took his three puffs and lifted his head and looked sharply all around him. "Well!" he said suddenly. "It has been some. I do say!" His squinted gray eyes came back. Lew nodded. "A year now come calf time," he said. "A year in CHAPTER I Even those names that meant so much have vanished now, so that you will look in vain for Ox Bow or Dripping Spring or the valley of the Little Comanche on any recent map. And it is hard to believe that this land where !:lashing beacons now guide the roaring course of planes by night, and by day motorcars dart effortlessly across its endless miles, was then but a wild and rolling prairie of buffalo grass, and a journey of any length had no certain ending, and all of a restless nation seemed to be following the sun in a mad race set off by the cry, "Go West, young man, go West! "-not sixty years ago. This was a time of new and un· believable happenings. Pullman's Golden Palace cars were running clear to the Pacific, with their red velvet curtained windows, their gas lamps that made the coaches as brilliant as a ladies' drawing room and their sleeping compartments in which many women still refused to undress when going to bed at night. Three thousand Negroes were marching afoot from Alabama, with their women and children and half· starved dogs, to claim the forty acres of land and the span of mules which the state of Kansas promised. Boxcar emigrant trains rolled out of the East one upon another, spew· ing settlers along the way, and the high-topped Pittsburg wagons lum· bered West behind their ox teams, to meet-not a barren prairie-but the red swarms of Texas longhorns coming up from the South. For this was a time when the man in the saddle was king of the plains and prairie; all others were hoe· n1en, beneath him, to be swept aside by the relentless march of his trail herds. Ten million Texas longhorns that had run wild since the ~ebel· lion were finding a market m the shipping towns of the new railroads; a thousand cattle ranches were be· ing made in the new lands of Montana and Wyoming, where cattle had never been before. Up that trail, twelve hundred miles long, unchecked by storm or drouth, by rov· ing bands of Comanches or the barbed wire of the hoe-men, the great flood poured northward, a million head in a single year. This was a time of a young man's opportunity. Whatever a man was going to be depended only upon himself.

A safe rule ln housing laying hens is to allow fut.lr square feet of floor space for N • .:h bird of breeds such as PJymoulli Rock, Rhode Island Red and Wyandotte. Smaller birds, such as Leghorns, can get along with about 3\.7 square feet a bird. Overcrowding also results in increased sickness and death losses in the flock. The bad effects of temporary overcrowding can be reduced • by providing more feed hoppers, watering fountains and deeper litter, but culling Hocks to remove the ' 1 drones should not be delayed too long. Although more than four square feet of space is not likely to increase production, less room will certainly mean fewer eggs than the Hock would otherwise lay. ..l U. S. Trusury 1l•partm~r.1 Leap Year Leap year generally, but not always, occurs at four-year intervals. The true astronom ical year, however, is 365 days, fh"e !·ours. 48 minutes and 46 seconds, while the calendar ye(?.r is an even 365 days. This means that for each calendar year that is observed tl1ere is a surplus of nearly six hours in the astronomica1 year. This is absorbed by adding one day to the calendar at four-year intervals. But this, then, gives the average calendar year a length of 11 minutes and 14 o;cconds in excess of the true astro:;nomical year. To make the necessary adjustP1ents in the calendar the last year of each century is a leap year only when the number of the century is divisible by four (1600, 2000, etc.) and the years which are multiples of 4000 are obsened as common, and not leap yt.:ars.

Franklin Barrett, president of the board, announced this week. The accepted plans for the new addition as prepared by architects E. Todd Wheeler, Perkins and Will, place the entrance to the new building off Maple road adjoining the present hospital at the nor,th. It will provide additional space for dietary services and offices for admitting, administraton, business and ancillary services. A new power plant, passenger and service elevators, conference, rest and waiting r.ooms will also be included. It is considered the first stage in a long range expansion program allowing for an additional Z50 beds to be constructed a decade later if the demand for hospital services continues to keep step with the fast growing industrial community which the hospital serves. As in the case of former additions, the hospital will assume almost half of the cost of construction through a general mortgage of $3,500,000. Application will be made to the IUinois Department of Health under the terms of the Hill-Burton act for $1,750,000 and the remaining $2,000,000 will be raised from corporate and business interests, and the general public throughout the Will County area served by the hospital. A public appeal to raise a minimum of $2,000,000 is now being organized with Robert J. Herschbach executive vice-president of the First National Bank and a member •of the boa•rd of trustees as general chairman. He has enlisted the services of George P. Lloyd, inves·tment consultant and vice president of the board as chairman of a master gifts committee with Willard B. Curtis, president of Barrett Hardware Company as vice chairman. Other chairmen •and committees are being organized to conduct a fund raising campaign which will continue th!'ough April. Headquarters are in the Plaza Hotel building. Mr. <Barrett reviewed action takrn during the past two years which led .to the decision to increase the hospital's bed capacity as a first step in the expansion program. A p1anning committee made up of six trustees and six members of the medical staff headed by Jerome Cerny, chairman, and Dr. Robert Bates, vice chairman was appointed in 1963. The committee worked with the board of .trustees and Paul W. Kempe, adminstrator, in securing facts and figures prior to refining and determining .the hospital needs for the area served by Silver Cross Hospital. Conferences were held with representatives of ,t he Hospital Planning Council for Metropolitan Chicago; officials of the Illinois Department of Public Health; Herman Smith M.D. and Associates; •and many officials of other general hospitals in the Chicago metropolitan area. After many conferences and analyses the trustees decided that the vital need for the Joliet com- • ••••• •• • •••• munity now and in the foreseeable future is for additional patient beds plus an expansion of services to adequately take care of an increased patient load. To substantiate this conclusion, the planning committee was guided by the evidence of population figures. The latest estimate of the population of 'Vill County, the principal area serviced by the hospital, was 206,700 in 1963 an increase of eight percent since 1950. On this basis it was estimated that the population of the area would increase by from 30 to 35 percent within the next 10 years. "The general hospital today and this applies to Silver Cross," Mr. Barrett stated, "has become a community health center. It must be prepared to provide expert care for patients suffering from all types of physical and mental diseases and at all levels of need, acute, chronic, convalescent, rehabilitative, diagnostic, etc." "Another considemtion is the fact that scientific advances in the field of medicine have literally exploded in recent years; growth in .t his particular area has been gr•eater during the past 50 years than in the previous 5,000 years." "The implications of all the as- sembled information are numerous many of which can be identified at this time. The range and cost of skills and programs needed to accomplish designated objectives will be very substantial. The more we know and can measure in the health field, the more we will use, requiring not only expansion of facil:ties and services, but the provision of more highly qualified personnel and more costly a:1d complex facilities." "A critical index of the need for expansion and development of present facilities is the very high utilizaticm of Silver Cross Hospital's resources, which are taxed beyond capacity daily-resulting in waiting lists and some seriously or injured patients kept in the emer,gency department over night or until beds were available." "A helpful method of measuring a general hospital's utilzation of facilities is by determining the annual rate of bed turnover. A study of all Illinois hospitals disclosed that at Silver Cross admissions and births per bed, per year were at the rate of 55.50 patients. This is the fourth highest bed turnover in all Illinois general hospitals." "At the present time there is a shortage of 180 beds in the area served by the Joliet hospitals with the deficit increasing a minimum of from six to eight percent each year." "Perhaps the most impo .tant characteristic of the expansi :m program to be undertaken immediately" Mr. Barrett concluded, "is that it not only solves the most urgent need for more beds, but it does so in a way that permits intelligent and economical growth of the hospital as envisio~1ed in a proposed master long range plan, to assure the community that the development of Silver Cross will be accomplished without waste, duplication of facilities The Dodge Boys say: Thursday, January 28, 1965 THE RECORD, CRETE, ILL. 8 1· T f mg ryouts or j Spor s Festival To ld d Be He Satur ay OW Bowling tryouts for Farm Bureau members who wish to participate in the Sports Festival will be held at the Peotone Bowling Center s.aturday, Jan. 30, at 7 P:m. and m the aften:_oon and evenmg Sunday, Jan . .:.1.

Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted municipal auditing standards, and accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Further comments regarding the scope of our examination are contained in the subsequent paragraphs of this report. We reconciled the balance as shown by the bank statement at April 30, 1964 with the balance as shown by the books of account. The balance as shown by the bank statement at April 30, 1964 was confirmed by direct correspondence with the depository. Taxes receivable represents the amounts due the Crete Park District as taken from the tax spread of the county clerk, after providing for an estimated loss in collection of six (6) percent. The receivable in the amount of $190.98 from the United States Treasury Department represents a claim for refund of erroneously paid F.l.C.A. taxes. The claim was filed on form 843 on May 10, 1961. We contacted the internal revenue service on December 28, 1964 on this matter (taxpayers Information Service, 222-6826) and we were assured of a reply within three to four weeks. If no action is taken, if you will advise our office, we will follow this matter to a conclusion. JOHN AURAND Accounts payable consists of indebtedness for current operating expenses.

Franklin Barrett, president of the board, announced this week. The accepted plans for the new addition as prepared by architects E. Todd Wheeler, Perkins and Will, place the entrance to the new building off Maple road adjoining the present hospital at the nor,th. It will provide additional space for dietary services and offices for admitting, administraton, business and ancillary services. A new power plant, passenger and service elevators, conference, rest and waiting r.ooms will also be included. It is considered the first stage in a long range expansion program allowing for an additional Z50 beds to be constructed a decade later if the demand for hospital services continues to keep step with the fast growing industrial community which the hospital serves. As in the case of former additions, the hospital will assume almost half of the cost of construction through a general mortgage of $3,500,000. Application will be made to the IUinois Department of Health under the terms of the Hill-Burton act for $1,750,000 and the remaining $2,000,000 will be raised from corporate and business interests, and the general public throughout the Will County area served by the hospital. A public appeal to raise a minimum of $2,000,000 is now being organized with Robert J. Herschbach executive vice-president of the First National Bank and a member •of the boa•rd of trustees as general chairman. He has enlisted the services of George P. Lloyd, inves·tment consultant and vice president of the board as chairman of a master gifts committee with Willard B. Curtis, president of Barrett Hardware Company as vice chairman. Other chairmen •and committees are being organized to conduct a fund raising campaign which will continue th!'ough April. Headquarters are in the Plaza Hotel building. Mr. <Barrett reviewed action takrn during the past two years which led .to the decision to increase the hospital's bed capacity as a first step in the expansion program. A p1anning committee made up of six trustees and six members of the medical staff headed by Jerome Cerny, chairman, and Dr. Robert Bates, vice chairman was appointed in 1963. The committee worked with the board of .trustees and Paul W. Kempe, adminstrator, in securing facts and figures prior to refining and determining .the hospital needs for the area served by Silver Cross Hospital. Conferences were held with representatives of ,t he Hospital Planning Council for Metropolitan Chicago; officials of the Illinois Department of Public Health; Herman Smith M.D. and Associates; •and many officials of other general hospitals in the Chicago metropolitan area. After many conferences and analyses the trustees decided that the vital need for the Joliet com- • ••••• •• • •••• munity now and in the foreseeable future is for additional patient beds plus an expansion of services to adequately take care of an increased patient load. To substantiate this conclusion, the planning committee was guided by the evidence of population figures. The latest estimate of the population of 'Vill County, the principal area serviced by the hospital, was 206,700 in 1963 an increase of eight percent since 1950. On this basis it was estimated that the population of the area would increase by from 30 to 35 percent within the next 10 years. "The general hospital today and this applies to Silver Cross," Mr. Barrett stated, "has become a community health center. It must be prepared to provide expert care for patients suffering from all types of physical and mental diseases and at all levels of need, acute, chronic, convalescent, rehabilitative, diagnostic, etc." "Another considemtion is the fact that scientific advances in the field of medicine have literally exploded in recent years; growth in .t his particular area has been gr•eater during the past 50 years than in the previous 5,000 years." "The implications of all the as- sembled information are numerous many of which can be identified at this time. The range and cost of skills and programs needed to accomplish designated objectives will be very substantial. The more we know and can measure in the health field, the more we will use, requiring not only expansion of facil:ties and services, but the provision of more highly qualified personnel and more costly a:1d complex facilities." "A critical index of the need for expansion and development of present facilities is the very high utilizaticm of Silver Cross Hospital's resources, which are taxed beyond capacity daily-resulting in waiting lists and some seriously or injured patients kept in the emer,gency department over night or until beds were available." "A helpful method of measuring a general hospital's utilzation of facilities is by determining the annual rate of bed turnover. A study of all Illinois hospitals disclosed that at Silver Cross admissions and births per bed, per year were at the rate of 55.50 patients. This is the fourth highest bed turnover in all Illinois general hospitals." "At the present time there is a shortage of 180 beds in the area served by the Joliet hospitals with the deficit increasing a minimum of from six to eight percent each year." "Perhaps the most impo .tant characteristic of the expansi :m program to be undertaken immediately" Mr. Barrett concluded, "is that it not only solves the most urgent need for more beds, but it does so in a way that permits intelligent and economical growth of the hospital as envisio~1ed in a proposed master long range plan, to assure the community that the development of Silver Cross will be accomplished without waste, duplication of facilities The Dodge Boys say: Thursday, January 28, 1965 THE RECORD, CRETE, ILL. 8 1· T f mg ryouts or j Spor s Festival To ld d Be He Satur ay OW Bowling tryouts for Farm Bureau members who wish to participate in the Sports Festival will be held at the Peotone Bowling Center s.aturday, Jan. 30, at 7 P:m. and m the aften:_oon and evenmg Sunday, Jan . .:.1.

Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted municipal auditing standards, and accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Further comments regarding the scope of our examination are contained in the subsequent paragraphs of this report. We reconciled the balance as shown by the bank statement at April 30, 1964 with the balance as shown by the books of account. The balance as shown by the bank statement at April 30, 1964 was confirmed by direct correspondence with the depository. Taxes receivable represents the amounts due the Crete Park District as taken from the tax spread of the county clerk, after providing for an estimated loss in collection of six (6) percent. The receivable in the amount of $190.98 from the United States Treasury Department represents a claim for refund of erroneously paid F.l.C.A. taxes. The claim was filed on form 843 on May 10, 1961. We contacted the internal revenue service on December 28, 1964 on this matter (taxpayers Information Service, 222-6826) and we were assured of a reply within three to four weeks. If no action is taken, if you will advise our office, we will follow this matter to a conclusion. JOHN AURAND Accounts payable consists of indebtedness for current operating expenses.

A big brother of the famous Grumman Wildcat, the Hellcat has better range, speed, climb, maneuverability and altitude. It has a 2,000 horsepower engine as compared with the Wildcat's 1,200. It has a low wing, improved armor, and a new flexible type gasoline tank which is an improvement over the ordinary puncture-proof type. It carries .50 caliber machine guns. The Corsair or F4U also has a 2,000 horsepower Pratt & Whitney engine and is easily distinguishable by its inverted gull wing. The Corsair has until recently been the chief navy fighter in the South Pacific. Now Hellcats are beginning to join it in large numbers. Heavy, Four-Engine Bombers. The newest models of both the Boeing B-17 (Flying Fortress) and the Consolidated B-24 (Liberator) bombets are equipped with new defensive armament in the form of nose turrets with machine gun installations. External bomb-racks can increase the potential bomb capacity of the B-17 to 17,600 pounds. Nevertheless, this plane has a smaller bomb capacity at long range than the B-24. The most accurate comparison, perhaps, is to say that load- 1 HELLCAT-Successor to the famous Grumman "Wildcat" is the new "Hellcat." It has folding wings, as shown in the picture below, so that it will take up a minimum of space on the deck of a carrier. The Hellcat is a standard fighter now in both the U. S. and British navies. It has more power and climbs faster than the Wildcat. ed with 2,800 gallons of gasoline the B-17 can carry 6,000 pounds of bombs (the usual load carried over targets in western Europe), whereas the B-24, with 2,900 gallons, can carry 8,000 pounds of bombs. Consequently the B-17 is being concentrated in the western European theater and the B-24 is being used chiefly elsewhere-in the Middle East, in India, China and Australia- for longer range operations. B-24's have made round-trip flights up to 2,600 miles; the raid on the Ploesti oil fields in Rumania from bases in Egypt, the raid on the Messerschmitt works at Wiener-Neustadt, and raids in the Pacific on Wake, Paramushiru and Surabaya. The B-24 is used by t.Je navy under the designation PB4Y-1. Me<lium, Light and Dive Bombers. New models of the two-engine Tokyo raider, the North American B-25 (Mitchell), are equipped with heavier armament and possess increased speed and range. The B-25 is the chief medium bomber in the present program, production of the Martin B-26 (Marauder) being tapered off. B-25's, powered with Wright Cyclone engines, are flying on 11 fronts, are used by both army and navy for anti-submarine patrol service, an'd have scored particular successes with skip-bombing. The Douglas A-20 (Havoc) is the principal light army bomber in the program until the totally new, advanced light bomber mentioned above comes into production. The newest Havoc, used by the army for low-level bombing, is fitted with a power turret and with armament for ground strafing. The A-24, army version of the Douglas SBD (Dauntless) divebomber, is now being produced in decreasing numbers, chie!ly for training purposes. Grumman Avenger. The Grumman Avenger, the navy's carrier-based torpedo-bomber, has completely supplanted the Douglas TBD (Devastator). It carries machine guns as well as torpedo or bombs, and has destroyed many Japanese vessels in the Pacific. Chief among the navy's patrol bombers are three flying boats and two land planes. The land planes are the Consolidated PB4Y-1 and the Vega PV-1. The flying boats are the Consolidated P~Y (Catalina), CoQsolidated PB2Y, (Coronado), and Martin PBM (Mariner). All three flying boats are used for transport purposes as well as for patrol and bombing operations. The two-engine PBY, the oldest, slowest and smallest, the ship which first spotted the Jap forces on the Aleutians, is still being built, still dive-bombing and strafing enemy shipping and rescuing pilots who have been downed at sea. The four-engine PB2Y has double the horsepower of the PBY:. The PBM does good work in anti-submarine coastal patrol and long-range reconnaissance. Not even the newest navy flying boats have speeds much above 200 miles an hour, but all are required to be able to land in a choppy sea. The Vega PV-1 (a navy adaptation of the twin-engined Vega B-34 "Ventura" ' bomber) is the navy's chief land-based anti-submarine patrol plane. It carries depth charges or a torpedo, is heavily armored, and is now often used in preference to flying boats in anti-submarine operations because of its greater speed. The Consolidated PB4Y-1 is a fourengine land-based bomber and, as previously mentioned, is used for long-range bombing missions and for anti-submarine patrol work. Design and Technical Improvements Aeronautical engineering demands experimentation with numerous designs in order to obtain several highperformance aircraft of the required types. But on the other hand, the constant improvements being made on models already in use, and the continuing addition of totally new airplanes to our forces, slow down the rate of production. Nevertheless, even at this stage in the war, when clear-cut air super~or­ ity over the enemy has been achie~ed, there is no assurance that the planes which have achieved it are superior to planes which the enemy may produce tomorrow. Changes in strategic and tactical problems, too, and changes of terrain over which fighting takes place, bring with them new demands for aircraft design and equipment. Even planes which have run up high boxscores must be constantly improved and replaced. The make-up of our air fleet has never been static, and is not to become so. BOX SCORE OF U. S. ARMY COMBAT AIRCRAFT Branch of Air Force Army air forces (Total) Army air forces (Total) Heavy bombers ~tedium bombers Fighters By -·~~~·~~~~~~~ "LT. S. Air Superiority Result of Constantly Improved Machines "In every theater of operations, American airmen and American planes have met the challenge of our enemies and outfought them by scores never worse than two to one in our favor," said Gen. Henry H. Arnold, commanding general of the army air forces. "All types of A.Jnerican fighter planes have shot out of the skies the best interceptors both Germany and Japan have put against them." This has been true since January, 1942, when our planes w~re outnumbered on practically all fnmts. While much of this favorable fighting ratio is attributable to the excellent training, versatility and courage of our pilots, a good part is traceable to the mechanical superiority of our planes. Constant improvement is the watchword. Even though production schedules must be delayed, our aircraft must be the best possible, say army and navy air c•rp!> officers. Here is a summary of the chief combat planes which have run up the high scores in our favor from a report just released by the Office of War Information: Fighters. V-type liquid-cooled engines are found in most fighter models because the long, slender shape of a liquidcooled engine is more adaptable to streamlined fighter design. It allows better vision, and has a smaller frootal area for the same horsepower. But it will be noted that in the P-47, where 2,000 horsepower was desired, an air-cooled engine was used. The same is true of ti:le navy's Vought F4U (Corsair) and the new Grumman F6F Hellcat. The navy uses no liquid-cooled engines. The navy's fighter program is large. An airplane carrier carries torpedo planes, bombers and fighters, and of these the fighters are needed to protect the other planes and the carrier itself. Fighters also protect land bases. In the South , ,Pacific, army P-38's are doing this latter job along with navy fighters. In the opinion of the materiel command, the Curtiss P-40, or Warhawk, has reached the limit of its developmental possibilities. It has gone through numerous type changes, the most basic being the P-40F when the engine was changed from Allison to Merlin. Although the latest model P -39 ceiling and general performance have been improved, the P-39 has shared the climb-deficiency of the P-41. It is being supplanted by a new model now under construction, with a low drag wing and a twostage Allison supercharged engine which will make it an efficient plane at any altitude up to 38,000 or 40,000 feet. The greatest efficiency of the P..J9 models has been below 15,000 feet. Like the P-39, the new plane will be equipped with cannon. Low Altitude Fighter. Although superior to the P-40 and P-39, the original P-51 or Mustang is also only a low a.nd mediumaltitude fighter. Now in production is a new P-51 with a highly supercharged, Packard-built, Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, similar to·the Merlin 61 engine in the newest Spitfires. Its performance is reported as even better than that famous ship's. The new engine gives the plane the highest ceiling (up to 40,000 feet) and the highe'st speed (well over 400 miles an hour) of any fighter in existence. The A-36 (Invader), the fighterbomber version of the P-51, has seen heavy service in the Mediterranean theater, and its best features are beipg incorporated in the new P-51, which will replace both the A-36 and the old P-51. The latest model of the Lockheed P-38 or Lightning is a fast, powerful fighter that has been given greatly increased horsepower in its Allison engine, improved pilot's vision, and improved intercoalin.g for better high-altitude performance. It outperforms the Zero and later Jap fighters at all altitudes. The P-38 has always possessed the versatility that is coming increasingly to characterize all combat aircraft. It has excelled at low-altitude strafing, high-altitude fighting, and as a particularly long-range bomber escort. Its distinctive silhouette, with its twin tail booms, has been seen over foar major fighting fronts.

Question: When a strong southwest wind blows, my furnace backs up and fills the house with coal gas, so that I can hardly keep up the fire. The furnace faces north. I had an extension put on the chimney, but the trouble still persists. Can you suggest anything? Answer: There are several reasons for poor draft. To be satisfactory, a chimney flue should be of sufficient area to provide ample draft; boiler manufacturer's directions should be followed. The flue should be tight for its entire length, and preferably lined with a fire-clay flue lining. The following are conditions that will interfere with a free chimney draft and prevent the proper operation of the fire: (1) Obstructions in the chimney; (2) a projection into the chimney; (3) a break in the chimney lining, or a defect in the masonry that permits leakage of air; ( 4) projection of the smoke pipe part way across the flue; (5) an air leak around the cleanout door at the base; (6) the smoke pipe entering the chimney on For Every Day. a down slant; (7) two or more pipe MAKE this dress up for every openings into one flue; (8) size of the day service-you'll not get flue contracted at the top or a smallsized pipe extension; (9) top of the tired of it after constant wear.

Question: The top has come off one of my piano keys. What kind of glue should be used to replace it so that it will stay white? Some were replaced previously and have darkened. Answer: Scrape the old glue oft' both key and the ivory, and stick the ivory back with shellac or with casein glue, which can be had at a hardware store. • • • Coal in a Fireplace Question: Will you give me instructions on the use of a coal grate in a fireplace? The fireplace is three feet wide by two feet deep. The grate measures 12 inches by 21 inches. Answer: Where the coal grate is narrower than the width of the fireplace opening, block off the spaces on t}·_a sides of the grate with brick. This can be built very easily with loosely cemented bricks. The idea is to confine the draft through the bed of coals in the grate and not allow it to escape around the sides. • • • Insulated Roof Question: Our house has been insulated with rock wool to the top o~ the roof, including the roof itself, wh;ch is completely blanketed. Our attic floor, however, is not insulated. My husband says it should be, and I claim that it is unnecessary. What is your opinion? Answer: You are right; the additional insulation would be a waste of money and woultl not add to thr comfort of the house. ~lu!n trnd turn it in ro your mcut dealer.

CHAPTER II The man was hard to place, squat and powerfully built, black-bearded over a pugnacious jaw, shrewd gray eyes. There was the look of the cattleman about him, except for his hands. Even gloves could not have protected them so much from the calluses and burns of a cowman's rope. They were soft; the skin above his wrists was white. The squat man asked, "What out· fit?" "Circle Dot," Lew said, naming a brand far to the south. He saw the gray eyes hold a moment's speculation, move to the oth· er three men and pause, and there seemed a silent question asked and answered. They came back then, veiled behind drooping lids. "You looking for a trail job?" "No, not yet. I aim to get my old one with the Circle Dot." He knocked out his pipe and put it in the side pocket of his rawhide coat, standing there afterward with the thumb of his right hand hooked over the pocket edge.

"And that knowledge comes high." "Keep it then!" "Sure, I'm not asking you for a job." Puzzled, he turned away. He had thought this was a camp of horse thieves. "Well, I'll tell you." The deci· sian came slowly, still with a guard. ed reluctance. "We need a good man. We're shorthanded on a herd starting north tomorrow. The right kind can draw seventy a month." That was almost double the usual wage. Lew grinned. "What's wrong with the color of your herd?" "Nothing. It goes out of here with a clean bill of sale. We're traveJ!ng fast, that's all.

He twisted his head for a better look, but could see no more than a dim shape of man and animal blended together. A voice growled, "You're late!" The blended shape moved a lit· tle. The rider's answer seemed forced out of him in a desperate way: "You're lucky I came at all! I told you last night there'd be no more!'' Something cold and hard tight· ened down the long length of his body. He'd recognize this voice any· where. Clay Manning! "I've filled your bargain. I'm through!" "You think so!" There was a shifting movement of the dim fig· ures standing on the ground. "We don't. Quit now and you know what happens." "That's what I rode to tell you." Clay Manning's voice and the blurred whirling of his horse came in the same instant. "Not tonight!" One of the group yelled, "Stop him!" and a gun's yellow flame streaked across the dark. But the crash of Clay Manning's horse through the willows continued, and then he was running free down the valley floor. The men made a quick shuttling mov;ement among the trees; Lew heard the slap of saddles and cinch leather. Then someone came and bent over him, jerked at the knots, testing them, and without a word ran back. The horses were visible now and the shapes of the riders swinging up. He heard a moment's mutter of talk, like a plan being made and changed and suddenly decided upon. Bolting from the camp, they, too, aimed their head· long run toward the south. Twisting, he made another savage attempt to loosen the ropes until the breath went out of him in a gasp of their cutting pain. And when he dropped back again, face up, a man was standing over him in the dark. "Thought so!" said old Willy Nickle and came silently forward. "Fixin' to get yourself rubbed out, so you were. Don't you never ta)te an old coon's advice, no sirree!" The sharp blade of his scalping knife parted the loops of rope. Forcing his stiffened body up onto legs that had gone numb, Lew said, "I had to know." He threw open the camp bedrolls until he found one where his gun had been hidden. "So you did," old Willy admitted. He wiped the knife on his greased sleeve. "Seems like I was watch· ing from the rims. Saw you come in here. Never saw you come out. But didn't them five go south in a hurry? And what for?" "You don' t know?" Lew asked. His horse was in the willows, the pack mule near by. He was up in his saddle when old Willy answered, "Couldn't say. Was a fire off south after sundown, too far to tell what." Lew nodded. The horse was moving. Behinc him Willy Nickle warned, "They'll lift your hair yet, boy. You better watch!" Then the black's strong lunge car· ried him beyond the spring and he was out on the open valley floor, running, with the mule trailing somewhere in the dark. He was soon at the Cross T. His sense of everything wrong here settled upon him with a heavy weight; the empty corrals, the silence, the absence of Cross T men. The faipt slit of light widened a lit· tie. "Who is it?" The demand came quick and sharp, hardly more than a tight whisper. He didn't move. "Joy!" "Lew!" The door swung back. She made a small dark figure rushing toward him. He caught her and he r arms went around him and clung with some· thing desperate and almost fierce in their grip. "Lew!" she said again. And then, "I can't believe it!" Holding her, a ll the month-long ache was swept from his body. His tiredness was gone. It was like hunger satisfied. She moved first, drawing away, and he asked, "Joy, wl-.at's happened?" "I don't know!" The fear he had quiete d broke into her quickened voice again. "Our grass stacks were burned late this afternoon, and a little while ago Clay rode in and said something to Dad. I didn't hear. But all the men went with him." "Where?" "Down the valley. Our trail herd's been gathered there on the flats." He took her iands. "Are you alone?" "No. Owl-Head's here." "Then I've got to go. I can help." She gripped him. "But I haven't even seen you! Wait, Lew. Wait a little- " A sudden burst of gunfire rattled in the distance. A rumble like far· off thunder trembled up from the valley mouth. In the first ntoments of running his horse beyond the ranch buildings he couldn't place the direction of th a t low rumble. He veered off to cut in at the head of . the stampede, drawing his gun. A dust fog rolled out to meet him; the clack of horns and hoofs and the heavy breathing of perhaps four thousand animals swept aside every other sound : I TO Bl': c~NTI1'UEDl 'LITTLE ELBERT'-A DRAl\lA OF ANY DOME "I want you to see Elbert; he's Just five years old next week," said Mrs. Twitchell, as her old friend, Grace Tooker, called .

A safe rule in housing laying hens is to allow f<.our square feet of floor space for each bird of breeds such as Plymouth Rock, Rhode Island Red and Wyandotte. Smaller birds, such as Leghorns, can get along with about 31fl square feet a bird. Overcrowding also results in increased sickness and death losses in the flock. The bad effects of temporary overcrowdmg can be reduced by providing more feed hoppers, watering fountains and deeper litter, but culling flocks to remove the drones should not be delayed too long. Although more than four square feet of space is not likely to increase production, Jess room will certainly mean fewer eggs than the flock would othenvise lay. !

YORK.-Some years ago a N EW few vice presidents were whoop- The test of battle-the only valid test of the performance of combat aircraft-has by now resulted in a number of box scores which reveal the pattern of acClilmplishrnent of American combut planes. ..:-;-. ,... HAVOC-One of the latest of the nation's battle planes is the Douglas "Havoc" fighter-bomber, a two-motored ship. combat, the P-47 or Thunderbolt, has been currently rolling up a score of approximately four to one in its contests with Messerschmitts and high-flying Focke-Wulfs over England, France and the Low Countries. Armed with eight .50 caliber machine-guns, and heavily armor-plated, it is capable of flying over 400 miles an hour and of reaching an altitude of 40,000 feet. High Scorer for Navy. The Grumman Wildcat or F4F, a navy fighter, with Pratt & Whitney Twin Wasp air-cooled engine and with folding wings for compact stowage on aircraft carriers, has run up many high scores in Mediterranean. Although the F4F will continue to be manufactured for use on auxiliary carriers and for training, it is now being supplemented by a new plane, the Grumman F6F ((Hellcat). This newest member of the navy's fighter family is described by the navy as "an answer to the prayers of our pilots!" A big brother of the famous Grumman Wildcat, the Hellcat has better range, speed, climb, maneuverability and altitude. It has a 2,000 horsepower engine as compared with the Wildcat's 1,200. It has a low wing, improved armor, and a new flexible type gasoline tank which is an improvement over the ordinary puncture-proof type. It carries .50 caliber machine guns. The Corsair or F4U also has a 2,000 horsepower Pratt & Whitney engine and is easily distinguishable by its inverted gull wing. The Corsair has until recently been the chief navy fighter in the South Pacific. Now Hellcats are beginning to join it in large numbers. Heavy, Four-Engine Bombers. The newest models of both the Boeing B-17 (Flying Fortress) and the Consolidated B-24 (Liberator) bombets are equipped with new defensive armament in the form of nose turrets with machine gun installations. External bomb-racks can increase the potential bomb capacity of the B-17 to 17,600 pounds. Nevertheless, this plane has a smaller bomb capacity at long range than the B-24. The most accurate comparison, perhaps, is to say that load- 1 HELLCAT-Successor to the famous Grumman "Wildcat" is the new "Hellcat." It has folding wings, as shown in the picture below, so that it will take up a minimum of space on the deck of a carrier. The Hellcat is a standard fighter now in both the U. S. and British navies. It has more power and climbs faster than the Wildcat. ed with 2,800 gallons of gasoline the B-17 can carry 6,000 pounds of bombs (the usual load carried over targets in western Europe), whereas the B-24, with 2,900 gallons, can carry 8,000 pounds of bombs. Consequently the B-17 is being concentrated in the western European theater and the B-24 is being used chiefly elsewhere-in the Middle East, in India, China and Australia- for longer range operations. B-24's have made round-trip flights up to 2,600 miles; the raid on the Ploesti oil fields in Rumania from bases in Egypt, the raid on the Messerschmitt works at Wiener-Neustadt, and raids in the Pacific on Wake, Paramushiru and Surabaya. The B-24 is used by t.Je navy under the designation PB4Y-1. Me<lium, Light and Dive Bombers. New models of the two-engine Tokyo raider, the North American B-25 (Mitchell), are equipped with heavier armament and possess increased speed and range. The B-25 is the chief medium bomber in the present program, production of the Martin B-26 (Marauder) being tapered off. B-25's, powered with Wright Cyclone engines, are flying on 11 fronts, are used by both army and navy for anti-submarine patrol service, an'd have scored particular successes with skip-bombing. The Douglas A-20 (Havoc) is the principal light army bomber in the program until the totally new, advanced light bomber mentioned above comes into production. The newest Havoc, used by the army for low-level bombing, is fitted with a power turret and with armament for ground strafing. The A-24, army version of the Douglas SBD (Dauntless) divebomber, is now being produced in decreasing numbers, chie!ly for training purposes. Grumman Avenger. The Grumman Avenger, the navy's carrier-based torpedo-bomber, has completely supplanted the Douglas TBD (Devastator). It carries machine guns as well as torpedo or bombs, and has destroyed many Japanese vessels in the Pacific. Chief among the navy's patrol bombers are three flying boats and two land planes. The land planes are the Consolidated PB4Y-1 and the Vega PV-1. The flying boats are the Consolidated P~Y (Catalina), CoQsolidated PB2Y, (Coronado), and Martin PBM (Mariner). All three flying boats are used for transport purposes as well as for patrol and bombing operations. The two-engine PBY, the oldest, slowest and smallest, the ship which first spotted the Jap forces on the Aleutians, is still being built, still dive-bombing and strafing enemy shipping and rescuing pilots who have been downed at sea. The four-engine PB2Y has double the horsepower of the PBY:. The PBM does good work in anti-submarine coastal patrol and long-range reconnaissance. Not even the newest navy flying boats have speeds much above 200 miles an hour, but all are required to be able to land in a choppy sea. The Vega PV-1 (a navy adaptation of the twin-engined Vega B-34 "Ventura" ' bomber) is the navy's chief land-based anti-submarine patrol plane. It carries depth charges or a torpedo, is heavily armored, and is now often used in preference to flying boats in anti-submarine operations because of its greater speed. The Consolidated PB4Y-1 is a fourengine land-based bomber and, as previously mentioned, is used for long-range bombing missions and for anti-submarine patrol work. Design and Technical Improvements Aeronautical engineering demands experimentation with numerous designs in order to obtain several highperformance aircraft of the required types. But on the other hand, the constant improvements being made on models already in use, and the continuing addition of totally new airplanes to our forces, slow down the rate of production. Nevertheless, even at this stage in the war, when clear-cut air super~or­ ity over the enemy has been achie~ed, there is no assurance that the planes which have achieved it are superior to planes which the enemy may produce tomorrow. Changes in strategic and tactical problems, too, and changes of terrain over which fighting takes place, bring with them new demands for aircraft design and equipment. Even planes which have run up high boxscores must be constantly improved and replaced. The make-up of our air fleet has never been static, and is not to become so. BOX SCORE OF U. S. ARMY COMBAT AIRCRAFT Branch of Air Force Army air forces (Total) Army air forces (Total) Heavy bombers ~tedium bombers Fighters By -·~~~·~~~~~~~ "LT. S. Air Superiority Result of Constantly Improved Machines "In every theater of operations, American airmen and American planes have met the challenge of our enemies and outfought them by scores never worse than two to one in our favor," said Gen. Henry H. Arnold, commanding general of the army air forces. "All types of A.Jnerican fighter planes have shot out of the skies the best interceptors both Germany and Japan have put against them." This has been true since January, 1942, when our planes w~re outnumbered on practically all fnmts. While much of this favorable fighting ratio is attributable to the excellent training, versatility and courage of our pilots, a good part is traceable to the mechanical superiority of our planes. Constant improvement is the watchword. Even though production schedules must be delayed, our aircraft must be the best possible, say army and navy air c•rp!> officers. Here is a summary of the chief combat planes which have run up the high scores in our favor from a report just released by the Office of War Information: Fighters. V-type liquid-cooled engines are found in most fighter models because the long, slender shape of a liquidcooled engine is more adaptable to streamlined fighter design. It allows better vision, and has a smaller frootal area for the same horsepower. But it will be noted that in the P-47, where 2,000 horsepower was desired, an air-cooled engine was used. The same is true of ti:le navy's Vought F4U (Corsair) and the new Grumman F6F Hellcat. The navy uses no liquid-cooled engines. The navy's fighter program is large. An airplane carrier carries torpedo planes, bombers and fighters, and of these the fighters are needed to protect the other planes and the carrier itself. Fighters also protect land bases. In the South , ,Pacific, army P-38's are doing this latter job along with navy fighters. In the opinion of the materiel command, the Curtiss P-40, or Warhawk, has reached the limit of its developmental possibilities. It has gone through numerous type changes, the most basic being the P-40F when the engine was changed from Allison to Merlin. Although the latest model P -39 ceiling and general performance have been improved, the P-39 has shared the climb-deficiency of the P-41. It is being supplanted by a new model now under construction, with a low drag wing and a twostage Allison supercharged engine which will make it an efficient plane at any altitude up to 38,000 or 40,000 feet. The greatest efficiency of the P..J9 models has been below 15,000 feet. Like the P-39, the new plane will be equipped with cannon. Low Altitude Fighter. Although superior to the P-40 and P-39, the original P-51 or Mustang is also only a low a.nd mediumaltitude fighter. Now in production is a new P-51 with a highly supercharged, Packard-built, Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, similar to·the Merlin 61 engine in the newest Spitfires. Its performance is reported as even better than that famous ship's. The new engine gives the plane the highest ceiling (up to 40,000 feet) and the highe'st speed (well over 400 miles an hour) of any fighter in existence. The A-36 (Invader), the fighterbomber version of the P-51, has seen heavy service in the Mediterranean theater, and its best features are beipg incorporated in the new P-51, which will replace both the A-36 and the old P-51. The latest model of the Lockheed P-38 or Lightning is a fast, powerful fighter that has been given greatly increased horsepower in its Allison engine, improved pilot's vision, and improved intercoalin.g for better high-altitude performance. It outperforms the Zero and later Jap fighters at all altitudes. The P-38 has always possessed the versatility that is coming increasingly to characterize all combat aircraft. It has excelled at low-altitude strafing, high-altitude fighting, and as a particularly long-range bomber escort. Its distinctive silhouette, with its twin tail booms, has been seen over foar major fighting fronts.

Keep Up Morale, Entertain Simply Even in Wartime Even if all foods were rationed I'd still say, don't ration hospitality for we need friendly get-togethers, the refreshment and relaxation that being with one's friends gives. Dinners or entertainments with stupendous foods are out of style at least for the present, but that doesn't mean you can't invite people over for a steaming cup of hot coff'ee and a few simple but tasty cookies.

Som~ time ago progressive dinners were quite the fashion. Now again they can become fun. The plan is to serve, let's say three courses, and have each course at a separate home. It's a good idea to have the homes within short walking distance of each other.

Some can't risk it now. Alan Ladd doesn't belong in that classa large part of the public is remaining faithful to him while he's off serving his country, and refusing to put anyone else in their idol's place. He worked hard for his success-had years of encouragement but few good roles, and put in time working in radio before he got a good role in "Joan of Paris." Then ALAN LADD he tested for "This Gun for Hire," and when Par~mount executives saw his test they didn't bother about testing anyone else.

Question: When a strong southwest wind blows, my furnace backs up and fills the house with coal gas, so that I can hardly keep up the fire. The furnace faces north. I had an extension put on the chimney, but the trouble still persists. Can you suggest anything? Answer: There are several reasons for poor draft. To be satisfactory, a chimney flue should be of sufficient area to provide ample draft; boiler manufacturer's directions should be followed. The flue should be tight for its entire length, and preferably lined with a fire-clay flue lining. The following are conditions that will interfere with a free chimney draft and prevent the proper operation of the fire: (1) Obstructions in the chimney; (2) a projection into the chimney; (3) a break in the chimney lining, or a defect in the masonry that permits leakage of air; ( 4) projection of the smoke pipe part way across the flue; (5) an air leak around the cleanout door at the base; (6) the smoke pipe entering the chimney on For Every Day. a down slant; (7) two or more pipe MAKE this dress up for every openings into one flue; (8) size of the day service-you'll not get flue contracted at the top or a smallsized pipe extension; (9) top of the tired of it after constant wear.

CHAPTER II The man was hard to place, squat and powerfully built, black-bearded over a pugnacious jaw, shrewd gray eyes. There was the look of the cattleman about him, except for his hands. Even gloves could not have protected them so much from the calluses and burns of a cowman's rope. They were soft; the skin above his wrists was white. The squat man asked, "What out· fit?" "Circle Dot," Lew said, naming a brand far to the south. He saw the gray eyes hold a moment's speculation, move to the oth· er three men and pause, and there seemed a silent question asked and answered. They came back then, veiled behind drooping lids. "You looking for a trail job?" "No, not yet. I aim to get my old one with the Circle Dot." He knocked out his pipe and put it in the side pocket of his rawhide coat, standing there afterward with the thumb of his right hand hooked over the pocket edge. "If you've been north three times and know enough," the man sug· gested, "maybe you can get a bet· ter deal here. What routes do you know?" "My own," he said and smiled faintly. "And that knowledge comes high." "Keep it then!" "Sure, I'm not asking you for a job." Puzzled, he turned away. He had thought this was a camp of horse thieves. "Well, I'll tell you." The deci· sian came slowly, still with a guard. ed reluctance. "We need a good man. We're shorthanded on a herd starting north tomorrow. The right kind can draw seventy a month." That was almost double the usual wage. Lew grinned. "What's wrong with the color of your herd?" "Nothing. It goes out of here with a clean bill of sale. We're traveJ!ng fast, that's all. I'm willing to pay for a man who knows some short cuts." "I see." He had his information, a big herd, going north tomorrow to Lew reflected that he needed only cattle or money to stock his Wyoming ranch . . . .

He twisted his head for a better look, but could see no more than a dim shape of man and animal blended together. A voice growled, "You're late!" The blended shape moved a lit· tle. The rider's answer seemed forced out of him in a desperate way: "You're lucky I came at all! I told you last night there'd be no more!'' Something cold and hard tight· ened down the long length of his body. He'd recognize this voice any· where. Clay Manning! "I've filled your bargain. I'm through!" "You think so!" There was a shifting movement of the dim fig· ures standing on the ground. "We don't. Quit now and you know what happens." "That's what I rode to tell you." Clay Manning's voice and the blurred whirling of his horse came in the same instant. "Not tonight!" One of the group yelled, "Stop him!" and a gun's yellow flame streaked across the dark. But the crash of Clay Manning's horse through the willows continued, and then he was running free down the valley floor. The men made a quick shuttling mov;ement among the trees; Lew heard the slap of saddles and cinch leather. Then someone came and bent over him, jerked at the knots, testing them, and without a word ran back. The horses were visible now and the shapes of the riders swinging up. He heard a moment's mutter of talk, like a plan being made and changed and suddenly decided upon. Bolting from the camp, they, too, aimed their head· long run toward the south. Twisting, he made another savage attempt to loosen the ropes until the breath went out of him in a gasp of their cutting pain. And when he dropped back again, face up, a man was standing over him in the dark. "Thought so!" said old Willy Nickle and came silently forward. "Fixin' to get yourself rubbed out, so you were. Don't you never ta)te an old coon's advice, no sirree!" The sharp blade of his scalping knife parted the loops of rope. Forcing his stiffened body up onto legs that had gone numb, Lew said, "I had to know." He threw open the camp bedrolls until he found one where his gun had been hidden. "So you did," old Willy admitted. He wiped the knife on his greased sleeve. "Seems like I was watch· ing from the rims. Saw you come in here. Never saw you come out. But didn't them five go south in a hurry? And what for?" "You don' t know?" Lew asked. His horse was in the willows, the pack mule near by. He was up in his saddle when old Willy answered, "Couldn't say. Was a fire off south after sundown, too far to tell what." Lew nodded. The horse was moving. Behinc him Willy Nickle warned, "They'll lift your hair yet, boy. You better watch!" Then the black's strong lunge car· ried him beyond the spring and he was out on the open valley floor, running, with the mule trailing somewhere in the dark. He was soon at the Cross T. His sense of everything wrong here settled upon him with a heavy weight; the empty corrals, the silence, the absence of Cross T men. The faipt slit of light widened a lit· tie. "Who is it?" The demand came quick and sharp, hardly more than a tight whisper. He didn't move. "Joy!" "Lew!" The door swung back. She made a small dark figure rushing toward him. He caught her and he r arms went around him and clung with some· thing desperate and almost fierce in their grip. "Lew!" she said again. And then, "I can't believe it!" Holding her, a ll the month-long ache was swept from his body. His tiredness was gone. It was like hunger satisfied. She moved first, drawing away, and he asked, "Joy, wl-.at's happened?" "I don't know!" The fear he had quiete d broke into her quickened voice again. "Our grass stacks were burned late this afternoon, and a little while ago Clay rode in and said something to Dad. I didn't hear. But all the men went with him." "Where?" "Down the valley. Our trail herd's been gathered there on the flats." He took her iands. "Are you alone?" "No. Owl-Head's here." "Then I've got to go. I can help." She gripped him. "But I haven't even seen you! Wait, Lew. Wait a little- " A sudden burst of gunfire rattled in the distance. A rumble like far· off thunder trembled up from the valley mouth. In the first ntoments of running his horse beyond the ranch buildings he couldn't place the direction of th a t low rumble. He veered off to cut in at the head of . the stampede, drawing his gun. A dust fog rolled out to meet him; the clack of horns and hoofs and the heavy breathing of perhaps four thousand animals swept aside every other sound : I TO Bl': c~NTI1'UEDl 'LITTLE ELBERT'-A DRAl\lA OF ANY DOME "I want you to see Elbert; he's Just five years old next week," said Mrs. Twitchell, as her old friend, Grace Tooker, called .

A safe rule in housing laying hens is to allow f<.our square feet of floor space for each bird of breeds such as Plymouth Rock, Rhode Island Red and Wyandotte. Smaller birds, such as Leghorns, can get along with about 31fl square feet a bird. Overcrowding also results in increased sickness and death losses in the flock. The bad effects of temporary overcrowdmg can be reduced by providing more feed hoppers, watering fountains and deeper litter, but culling flocks to remove the drones should not be delayed too long. Although more than four square feet of space is not likely to increase production, Jess room will certainly mean fewer eggs than the flock would othenvise lay. !

Released by Western Newspaper Union. --------...1 Yards rather than· miles were the measure of Russian gains on the Smolensk sector as the thaw-soddened central front was further mired by heavy spring rains. Further to the south, however, the Red forces menaced the steadily shrinking German bridgehead in the Northwest Caucasus by the capture of Anastasevskaya, 38 miles northwest of Novorossisk on the last highway link between Nazi forces north and south of the Kuban river. Elsewhere, fresh German tank assault<> against the Soviet line on the Doncts river east of Kharkov were rolled back by the stout Red defenders. In the north the Germans tacitly reported a retreat near Staraya Russa, between Moscow and Leningrad, by admitting a "withdrawal to prepared positions." TIRES: Synthetics 0. K. The toll of German prisoners has increased steadily as British and American forces have driven in on Rommel's cornered Axis forces in Tunisia. Typical of the multitude of captives is the above group of German prisoners taken in the British drive north of Gabes. I NORTH AFRICA: Axis Hold Shrinks FOOD SUBSIDY: Urged to Aid Poor Of key importance in heralding the possibility of an earlier-than-expected finish of the Tunisian campaign were reports that the harbor and shipping facilities of Gabes had been left undamaged by the Axis forces in their hasty retreat from Gen. Montgomery's onslaughts. With Gabes functioning as an Allied supply port, the long overland haul of war materials from Tripoli or Bengazi far down the African coast in Libya could be avoided. Moreover, Allied sea and air power concentrated in Gabes could further harass the Axis forces. The all-over battle for North Africa was not yet won, but steadily British armies from the north and south and American armies from the center were tightening the squeeze on the remaining Axis troops in Tunisia. As Marshal Rommel's forces had made their last desperate effort to beat their way northward for a ju ction with Col. Gen. Von Arnim's troops in the Bizerte area, reports indicated that the Axis had flown fresh troops into Tunisia. To relieve the pressure on Rommel, Von Arnim's forces had staged a brief counter - offensive against British forces near Bizerte. Control of the air over North Africa had appeared to be turning overwhelmingly in the Allies' favor, as raids shook the Axis lines and turned Rommel's retreat into a nightmare. Meanwhile in answer to reports that Germany had commandeered the Italian fleet and all avail~le French merchantmen preparatory to an attempt to evacuate Halo-German armies from Tunisia in an Axis "Dunkirk," the Allies staged an unprecedented raid by 100 Flying Fortresses that smashed the important Axis supply base at Cagliari, Sardinia, damaging 26 merchant ships and putting 71 enemy planes out of commission. Simultaneously, waves of American Billy Mitchell bombers struck at an Axis convoy in the Sicilian narrows, sinking at ll!ast three large ships and leaving others burning and settling. Suggesting that the government pay persons in low income groups special allowances to enable them to buy sufficient food, Roy F. Hendrickson, head of the Food Distribution administration, declared he believed that otherwise these people would "find it tough to get food." Emphasizing that his statements were his own personal views, Hendrickson declared that the plan he advocates would aid the farmer. Declaring the problem had to be "treated from both ends," he said that the farmer had become discouraged because food costs have gone so high while prices paid him have not risen in proportion. "We have got to see that the farmer is able to market his stuff," Hendrickson declared. Any volume of income to the purchasing class is bound to help the farmer." In addition to the low income groups, he suggested payments for the aged, the blind and otherwis~ handicapped. ' c INVESTIGATION: Of U. S.-Held Foods Into a maze of charges and countercharges that the government itself had become No. 1 food hoarder, the senate's Truman investigating committee plunged in an effort to obtain the facts. Chairman Harry S. Truman announced that a two-way investigation was in progress. One phase is to inquire into the amount of food held by government agencies. The other was to inv!!stigate the needs of the armed forces. Information from both government and private sources had been obtained, he said. Previously, members of the food trade and others had charged that t!le armed services are hoarding processed foods and thus forcing less than necessary civilian allowances under rationing. "Supplies of food for the armed forces must be sufficiently great to assure that there will be plenty of food for our soldiers and sailors," Truman said. "However, care must be taken to assure that the government does not itself become a hoarder." HIGHLIGHTS POSTWAR PLANS: Poland Speaks Up With postwar peace plans gammg increased attention in Allied chancellories, the Polish government-inexile served notice that Poles would resist "to the last man" any claims from any quarter aimed at the "sovereignty and integrity of Poland." Spokesman for the Poles was Prime Minister Wladyslaw Sikorski, now a resident of London. Target of the statesman's remarks was Russia, since the Soviet government recently announced its intention of retaining the :J;>olish Ukraine and the area bordering on White Russia which was ta~en from Poland under the German-Russi;m partition of Poland in 1939. But even as he stoutly proclaimed his doctrines of independence, Sikorski recommended that an Allied air force should go to the Russian front after the fighting in Tunisia is concluded as an expression of United Nations' solidarity. He predicted a third German offensive by the German armies against Russia. CIVILIAN GOODS: No Further Cuts? SOUTH PACIFIC: Bombs Break Lull American bombs exploding on Kiska in the Aleutian Islands, Vila in the central Solomons, Kahili in the Shortlands and in Japanese holdings north of Australia broke the lull in the Pacific war theater. While the foregoing raids had nuisance and punitive value, General MacArthur's fliers in New Guinea centered their attacks on enemy supply and communication lines between Wewak and Madang and strafed the entire Salamaua area. A communique from Allied headquarters said that low-altitude raids in the Salamaua area with bombs, cannon and machine gun fire had subjected this front to the most intensive damage this Jap base had yet received. ' AlliEd airmeilJ contif!ued tl~ir Jai on the airdromes at Lae and at Timika in Dutch New Guinea. 'AIR POLICE': To Insure Peace Air power as a police force preserving world peace after the war was envisioned by former President Herbert Hoover, who proposed that the United Nations strip the HERBERT HOOVER Taking stock of America's industrial power, Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War Production board, declared that "Today we are turning out more goods for war than we ever produced for our peacetime needs, yet we have enough power left over to keep civilian standards of living at a high level." Mr. Nelson predicted in an address in Chicago that the United States this year will turn out more than 80 billion dollars worth of goods for war purposes. The WPB chief's 1943 estimate compares with 48 billion in 1942, the first year after Pearl Harbor, 17 billion in 1941 and four billion in 1940, the year 'Germany smashed her way across Europe. The figures will get even bigger, Mr. Nelson said, adding "as they grow the armies and cities of the Axis will feel an ever-fiercer flame, a more terrifying blast from the guns and bombs of America." Eventual victory, he declared, already is being foreshadowed in the "cold hard figures of production." in the week's news Two events pointed to the conclusion that the nation's synthetic rubber producing program was proceeding successfully. One was the appearance of Rubber Director William M. Jeffers before a senate committee with a heavy duty synthetic truck tire and his statement that the artificial elastic had been perfected "to the point where it will very nearly meet all requirements without mixing witb natural rubber." The other was the action of the rubber division and the department of agriculture in reducing the immediate planting of guayule, a rubber producing shrub from 53,000 acres to between 13,000 and 20,000 acres. Jeffers warned, however, that the rubber situation was still critical. ~ L------------------:---------------...1 OTTAWA: Meat rationing for WASHINGTON: Two new rear adCanada, effective early in May on mirals were added to the navy's rosthe basis of two pounds a person ter when President Roosevelt noma week, was announced by Finance inated Capt.

Who's News This Week By Delos Wheeler Lovelace Consolidated Featurea.-WNU Release, NEW YORK.-A couple of years ago Chester C.

He was editor of a pint-sized paper there and then be rolJed mosslessly on to Montana. Montana always has a fine crop of girls, and he married one in 1913 and finally became state agricultural commissioner, Marriage nails most men down, especially when it produces two sons, but Davis rolled on to Illinois to run first a grain marketing association and then a cornstalks processing company. All this seems skitter-skatter, but it turned out to be just right for a job with the Agricultural Adjustment administration, first as director, then as administrator. And that led, by a neatly selective process, into the Federal Reserve system. He has been president of the reserve bank in St. Louis for several years and maybe in defense against people wanting money he has formed the habit of dropping his fieshy face and looking somberly from under heavy eyebrows. • NOW and then the production of this column is interrupted by a young buck from next door who speaks the irreverent jargon of the Yellow Peril of hWho t sfp 0 t s. en, or exTokyo a GangtJter ample, grave To Reckon With elder speaks somberly of Japan's dangerous Premier Hideki Tojo he swings in with a carefree "Hi-de-ho."

He's handsome-" Army Clarifies Policies Regarding Farm labor Military Units May Be Employed on Crops During 'Emergency Situations'; Individual Furloughs Not Contemplated. By BAUKHAGE New.• Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. "Home on a furlough." I wonder how many of my readers rem~mber that very popular print of two (or maybe more) generations ago. Well, never mind if you don't (though I would appreciate a letter from any who do); "home on a furlough" is going to mean something quite different now. I remember the original picture only vaguely. I didn't know what the word "furlough" meant. But I know there was a tousle-headed blond boy in the middle of an admiring farm family, telling his adventures. Today, the farm boy with a conscience, and the farm family with a farm, are looking forward to the "furlough" that will bring the boy home for work, not the telling of his tales of adventure. It isn't going to be quite that way. The President, when the farm bloc was riding the administration its hardest last month, went into considerable detail as to what was to be done to solve the farm labor question. · Since then some concrete steps have been taken but not the ones the farmers, or some of them, would have liked. They would have liked their own sons, or their own hands, who enlisted because they simply couldn't stay "out of the show," back doing the old chores they used to do. But this is what the army said: "The army does not contemplate furloughing individual soldiers to work on farms," the war department announced in a statement clarifying policies and procedures by which soldiers may be used to alleviate the farm labor shortage. "World War I experience demonstrated that such temporary releases of individual ooldiers were of little assistance to the agriculture industry and disrupted the organization ana training of the army. If furloughs were granted for this purpose, neither agriculture nor the army' could' be assured that the \soldiers thus furloughed actually would be engaged in agricultural activities. "Certain emergency situations may develop in which vital crops may be endangered because of critical shortages in local agricultural labor. In such cases, military units may be employed under command of their own officers to supplement the local farm labor until the crisis ii over. "Troops so employed will be housed and fed by the army and will be subject to military control at all times. "Requests for use of military units for emergency farm duty must be transmitted to the war department by the chairman of the War Manpower commission." Another Loophole However, there is another loophole which all of the farmers or the farm men in service may not know about. A soldier over 38 years of age who is on active duty in the continental United States can get his discharge right now if he can ge;t a statement from his local farm agent to the effect that he is needed. But the application has to get in by May 1. The same thing applies to men overseas and they have untU June. (Better tell them by V -Mail.) The President explained to us twice, why a batch of young men couldn't be pulled out of a division and sent home. You can take 10 or 20 soldiers out of an outfit that has just started training and it doesn't make much difference. But you can't take that many men out of an outfit already trained and booked for overseas. Not witho_ut crippli?g the outfit so badly that It really mterferes with battle plans. That's his explanation and he made it t? us the other day, leaning ?ack m his chair and obviously trymg hard to get over an idf::a that he believes is right. There is going to be a "land army." He said he didn't like the term because it made the farmers think they were going to have a lot of green city folks descend on them He knows what the farmers think about folks who will scare the horses, sprain their ankles try to milk a cow and when she' doesn't give, say: "The valves are stuck." One farmer wrote me he'd rather have grasshoppers than city folks on his place. England'• Method The Pre:.ident said to us that in England they have increased food production 60 per cent. And they did it with the help of a land army, mostly women with no previous training. They got the training. A lot depends on the training. I talked with a farmer near her~ who took on a city boy, green as grass. The boy probably thought shorts were something you wore and probably would have looked in the toolbox for a boar. Maybe you heard him talk on the Farm and Home Hour. Well, I met him and the farmer, too. The kid is crazy to get back this summer and the farmer told me he was sick when he !<tad to let him go back to school. City folks are dumb in a lot of ways. But so are farmers. It's true you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Also, a lot of horses have got the sense to drink if you've got sense to lead them to the water. In spite of dumb help or none at all, in spite of lack of machines and a lot of red tape, the farmers of the country have signed up to raise a bigger crop than they've ever raised. I believe with a little horse sense and patience, they are going to pull through. No team pulled together until they were in harness. If they don't, God help us and the army at meal time. • • • The WeatherA Dead Topic As you know, mention of the weather on the radio these days is forbidden. The newspapers can describe a snow storm or a hot spell but the radio commentators cannot. There is a good reason for this. A lurking submarine could pick up a newscast, and if enough facts concerning the weather were revealed by 'stations in enough widely sep- ' arated localities, even an amateur meteorologist-and the Germans are no amateurs-could make a pretty good weather forecast by putting two and two together. But being unable to describe the manifestations of nature that I see on my way to work in the morning is a terrible handicap to me. Recently I've gotten around the difficulty by talking about last week's weather, and before going on the air, reading what I was going to say to the censorship officials and getting their 0. K. In no case did they restrict me. The other day, however, I forgot to call up the Censorship office but the Blue Network didn't forget. I got this message: "Censorship says you have to cut out all references to weather from now on. They say that there was nothing actually censorable in what you have said or what you have written today but so many complaints have come in from other stations that you were violating the regulations, and so many other stations have been using your comments on the weather as an excuse for violating the rule, that we will have to ask you to stop discussing the subject entireiy." The following is what censorship didn't let me say but what it has no objection to my printing: "It was pretty hard the past week not to mention the swiftly changi.rig scene which nature provided Washingtonians-one day, not so long ago a top coat was far too heavy for comfort and in the park, the dark patches were beginning to be studded with jeweled buds and the sunlight seemed to turn into solid gold on the bursting forsythia. On that balmy day I remarked-'Well, we must be due for a blizzard.' ' "Twenty-four hours later the fine snow began to fall and late that afternoon and the following morning the tree limbs and trunks wer; wrapped in great soft blankets of down-even the high branches were wide bands of white-but when we went home from work in the evening, the streets were dry and clean again and only here and there in the shadow of a hedge· or in the sheltering cups of the brown ivy leaves was a dust of snow-like a meager spri.nkling of precious sugar on the rim of a doughnut.."

But on the way 5he meets hll brother, Angus, and she reaUzes that she must not come between l.be two men. So when l.be Wblte Queen docks, sbe stays on board. But Will, operating a crane, Is attracted by the slgbt of a girl on tbe deck. He loses bls balance and Is ktlled. Learning lbat Angus blames her, Robin (oes to his boat to walt for him and falls asleep. When she awakes she ftods that the boat has sailed, carrylnc her toward Labrador as a stowaway. Also aboard are Angus, Pat Donohoe and a French-speakln( cabin boy named Romeo. Robin Is ask· log blm the time. CHAPTER VIU "Qu~:~le heure est-il?" With a flash of smiling teeth Romeo answered at the same hme pointing to an alarm clock hanging on a nail against the forward bulkhead. Twenty minutes past two. She calculated swiftly-twelve plus two and a half, plus, say five and a half-that they must be eighteen hours out of Moose Bay. Maybe '200 miles? Romeo was saying something and pointing. The galley opened into the narrow triangular forecastle with two bunks and a litter of stores and gear; and a steel ladder led up through an open hatch to t~e deck. She thought Romeo was telhng her to go up on the bow deck, and she stepped into the forecastle; but then she saw that the pilothouse was accessible by a set of steel rungs against the bulkhead on the starboard side. She looked up into Pat Donohoe's scarred and battered countenance. He was looking down at her between his knees, tne toes of his boots not six inches from her nose as she stood below him. He and Angus were together there, and Pat moved his great bulk out of her way to let her climb up to join them, then slid past her and down into the forecastle to give her room enough. Angus McPhail, at the wheel, looked at her with those eyes which so curiously always seemed gray though they were really blue, and she sat down beside him; said, "Good afternoon." "Sleep all right?" he asked quietly. "I didn't know anything till-Romeo, is it-waked me. Did you? You seem rested." surely too far away to have seen Robin; she was too well hidden behind Mr. McPhail and in the shadows of the pilothouse to be seen. Yet Mr. Jenkins not only lifted his hand; he raised his hat! Ang~o~s McPhail looked at her sharply, as though expecting to catch her in the act of returning that salutation. "Did he know you were aboard here?" he demanded. "I don't see how he could." "He may have seen you come aboard last night." "I'm sure he didn't." Angus stared at the other boat which drew rapidly away ahead of them. He leaned sidewise to look down into the forecastle. "Pat?" he called. "Aye, sorr!" "Where are you? Where's Romeo?" "Aft. Will I call him, sorr?" "No, no matter. You come take her, Pat." Pat Donohoe climbed into the pilot-house; he went around behind the high seat to McPhail's other side. McPhail asked him a question. "Pat, how did you know I'd be on the White Queen?" "Sure, sorr, Will told me." "Of course that's so " Angus assented disar:ningly. ,:So you met me?" d .d th t , .. . 1 . a · , Did Will tell you he d meet us at the bunkhouse?" "Sure and that one never knew where he'd be from one minute t' I "i ''Some.'' She remembered the narrow bench in the cabin that m\..st have been his bed, spoke of it. "I'm afraid you were uncomfortable." "No, I didn't sleep there. I came into the fo'c's'le. One or the other of the men had the wheel all night, so there was an extra bunk. I got up at Salmon River. We tagged a dozen or fifteen fish." "Oh! Did we stop? Why didn't you put me off?" "I'll take you on to Beaver River. We'll get there late tonight or early tomorrow. A steamer stops there tomorrow night. You'll be in plenty of time to catch it." She looked at him, thinking he was himself again, remote, controlled, quiet and steady as a rock. But she had gone to sleep last night with a question in her mind. She said: "Mr. McPhail-forgive me-may I ask you something?" "Of course." "Did-your brother expect you on the White Queen?" Something quickened in his eyes; moved and then was still. "Yes," he said, after a moment. She guessed that this question had occurred to him before, had been forgotten till just now. "But then," she urged, "why didn't he meet you, or call to you when you landed, or something? Instead of letting you gb oii to shore?" It was some time before Angus answered . When he did, he seemed to think aloud. "I wasn't sure the White Queen would stop at Rimouski," he said. ''I wrote him I'd catch her if I could, but that otherwise I might have to come by plane. I said I'd let him know; but I forgot to write him again, or wire him or anything. So he didn't know surely I'd be on her." "Oh!" For a while she did not speak, nor did he; but she was not satisfied. Then she remembered Pat Donohoe, and she had a dozen questions instantly. "Didn't your boatman, Mr. Donohoe, know where your brother was? He met you at the boat. He knew you were coming, Mr. McPhail. He must have known your brot!'!er was right there on the wharf, mustn't he?" McPhail's head swung sharply away from her. She thought at first he had turned away to avoid her eyes; but he said in a soft surprise, "Hullo!" She leaned forward to look past him through the small side window to see what had caught his atten: lion. A gray motor cruiser like a submarine chaser drew smoothly abreast of them, traveling three feet to their two. Robin recognized it; and as It .hauled ahead of them, she recogmzed the man on deck even at th:s conside rable distance' as Mr. Jenkins. She said, unneces: sarily: "Why, it's Mr. Jenkins!" Angus did not speak. Mr. Jenkins li.fted a hand in greeting. He was ........ ~·· Romeo was amused at her efforts to talk French. the next; they worked him so. He'd be at this job and that, faster than a man could wink." "Queer he didn't see me land?" "He'd be paying attention to his job. Eh, he was such a hand to work you've no idea, sorr. Never another thing in the mind of him but the job he was at, ever, to be sure." Angus McPhail said sternly: "Pat, if you E!ver lied to me, I'd break you in nine pieces, big as you are." Pat chuckled. "Sure, sorr, you'd be welcome to. But if I ever did, it'd be a lie that had to be told, sorr. Maybe about something that was best forgot. Well you know that's true." Robin watched Mr. Jenkins' boat drawing away, ahead of them, and she thought there was sometimes between two men a thing no wornan could ever understand, strange and deep and beautiful. Angus MePhail said now: "Pat, you're a lying Irish blackguard! If a Scotchman hadn't invented the wheelbarrow, you'd never have learned to walk on your hind legs." Pat chuckled. "If 'twas a Scotchman did that, it was so he could get two men's work out of one Irishman, be sure, sorr. Shall I take her now?" Angus nodded. He spoke to Robin. "We'll go aft." Romeo was busy in the galley; and he smiled at her a s she passed and she at him. In the cabin, Angus shut the galley door, and he said: "Pat will not tell the truth till he's ready. No use pressing h1m. You notice he evaded answering." He sat down wearily. "Will was probably drunk," he decided. "I should have guessed that. I can s ee now that Pat tried to keep us apart till Will had time to sober ofi. The boy was a wild, reckless fool, wh en he'd had a drink or two. I s uppose he insisted on handling the crane, and someone let him." She thought of Will McPhail asleep on a bench in the Public Gar· dens with a roll of newspaper like a lily in h1s hands; of Will, after champagne, forgetting where he jli\·ed; of Will on the marrowbones of repentance outside her door, with sackcloth and ashes on his back. Will had been fun; but he seemed now infinitely remote, as though he had never lived. After all, the dead are the lucky ones. It is the living who grieve, who must go on living. People like Angus here. She said: "Pat loves you, doesn't he?" "Pat? We've knocked around together quite a lot." He said reluctantly: "Miss Dale, if Will was drunk, that's the answer. Not anything you did. No drunken man can handle a ticklish job like that. I've been half-crazy these three days. At least I know-well, I'm sorry I blamed you." "It's all right." "Even if he'd been sober-! suppose it's never fair to blame a woman for being beautiful and wanting to have it noticed. You might as well blame a kitten that chases its tail." He looked at her honestly. "I'm sane enough today. Talk never mended a broken plate; but-I'm sorry to have spoken wrongly to you." "I'm glad you're sorry, and glad you told me so." She hesitated, then on sudden decision she said: "I think I'll ten you something, Mr. McPhail." He looked at her and she said carefully: "When your brother saw me, he didn't just see a pretty girl in a bathing suit." Her voice was grave. "He recognized me, Mr. McPhail.'' He stared at her. "You knew Will?" She told the truth then, in a dozen sentences. While sho spoke he watched her keenly, thinking how young she was, remembering Will's words. "Oh, baby, wait for papa!" She was wrong, of course. Will had not known her. But if she was happier in thinking that he had . . She finished and he asked with a curious gentleness: "You came to Moose Bay to see him?" "Yes. I meant to surprise him." "I see. But-when I told you about this trip he and I had planned, you decided to stay on the White Queen so Will and I could have our trip together?" There was no need of any answer. She made none. He turned toward the after companionway. "We're coming in to LaLogue River," he said, in an abstracted tone. "I'll get the gear ready. You might be interested to see how we tag the salmon." When they came on deck, it was she who saw the plane, flying very high, a mile or two behind them, at times half hidden in the lower masses of the clouds. She pointed it c.ut to him. "It's a Government ship," Angus decided, and watched it curiously. "Hullo, look, it's circling!" The plane seemed in fact to hover in one place, like a fishhawk watching a flounder in the shallows. It circled, it drew figures of eight; it loitered in the skies. Yet it was overhauling them. By the time they drew in toward the shore a mile or two short of the river mouth, the plane had passed on beyond the river, still flying in that strangely dilatory fashion. They anchored, and at their signal a fisherman on shore put off in his boat and rowed toward them. Before he reached the cruiser, the sound of the plane's motor had receded as it moved slowly eastward. Mr. Jenkins and his boat were already out of sight, three or four miles ahead of the plane. That business of tagging the sal· mon did interest Robin. Having one.: or twice fished with her fa· ther, she had thought of the men who netted salmon as butchers, sou:less and depraved, killing beautiful fish by the scores. But the man who rowed them now did not look the villain. His name was Dubois; and he had the stocky shoulders and the lean hips and the sturdy legs of his breed, with a pleasant eye, a .firm jaw, an easy slow way of speaking. Dubois, in the bow, said over his shoulder: "Here's a live one for you!" Robin stood up to look; and she saw the net floats were being tugged to and fro by some disturbance in the net below. A moment later, Dubois lifted into the boat a snarl of net. They took from that net a dozen dead salmon and three live ones which Angus tagged and released. There were eight nets alongshore at LaLogue, four to the west of the river mouth and four to the east of it, spaced a half-mile or so apart. Angus and Pat worked them; but after the first, Robin stayed aboard with Romeo. He was amused at her efforts to talk French; and his j flattering glances were eloquent enough of the satisfaction he found in her company . When Angus came aboard, after the second net, he said: ''See here, Romeo's prancing like a goat! i wouldn't be too friendly with hi!'1, Miss Dale ." "He 's teaching me French," she e xplained. "I can already understand some of the thmgs he says, 1£ he talks very slowly." Angus said thoughtfully : "I think , th e re are a Jot of thin gs you don't understand at all." He added, as though this cons ideration rea ssured him : "But we'll be at Beaver Rive,before daylight."

Mrs. America can no longer dash to the grocer's and get enough canned or processed foods to put together a quick meal. Nor can she get together a meal, even one that would take time, with those rationed foods. Points must be budgeted far more carefully than dollars and cents in the past!

Confusion, indecision, anrl slowness in buying were the adjectives grocers used when buying with War Ration Book II began. But this is gradually wearing away as Mrs. America learns new shopping methods. Since point values change monthly, it's a good idea to keep a list of point values on hand when making the menu. Plan menus for a week at tt time-marketing lists and bndget lists all on hand when you're no.ng this important bit of work.

Edu(·<.tion•l camp1i"'ns have been succes.Jful in many c1hcs in securing co-operation of the pulJlic in observing anti-nm<e 'Jrdinances. In a few ci1.ics, Jail sc n•t'ncPs ha\'e been imposed, however. Fines imposed by n any ordinances, also, range up to $500. More than 50 per cent of the nation's lurr r citi£>s ha\'e anti-noise mdinanc~.;s. In add tion, man:y cities ha\ e tr t1fik, nuisc.ncc and other orclinan 't s dosiJ:~:1-::d to regulate ·noise to some extent. The scope of opportunities for women in chemistry is almost unlimited, Dr. Helen I. Miner of Wayne university declares. Surveying the Detroit area, Dr. Miner finds that, while three years ago the majority of women chemists were engaged in t eaching or medical research, today a larger proportion is represented in the fields of industry and medicine and the number is limited by the supply rather than the demand. "Conclusion of the war will not contract this extended horizon for women chemists," Dr. Miner asserts. "In the reconstruction period which must follow there still will be acute needs for trained Americans of both sexes and of varied racial backgrounds to go' abroad to arsi~t in the multitude of probl"tnS-ntltrttional, m edical, agricultural, and mdustrial-which must l.Je solved in winning the peace." World War I provided the inili'! stimulus for the first large scole pL.rticipation in scientific endca vor l,y women, Dr. Miner points out. "lo 1918 the number of women cht•m· ists in the American Chemicill society more than tripled th e !!Jl4 figure and enrollments in medical and scientific courses in the universitiLS throughout this country v.. ere greatly increased."

For that reason the soap industry, 1enerally thought to be remote froB!l the direct war effort, ftnds itsel1 shouldered with the retapon:5ibilicy rA. producing suftl.cient glycerine to meet the great demands for high explosives by the armed aervices, bd\h of this country and the United Natlona, and the mining industry. Glycerine, always important because of its mat)y uses in industry, medicine, and the arts, is a vital product today because it is an essential ingredient of the high explosives demanded by war. The de· mand for glycerine is constant and urgent-for explosives such as dynamite, for propellants such as cordite, and for hundreds of other purposes contributing to the welfare of the United States and her Allies. When the war machines start rolling, glycerine is indispensable. It is indispensable f:rom the beginning of the fight to the end. The defense worker uses it in production; the soldier needs it for battle; the wounded man is grateful for it in the field hospital. Tanks, ships and planes last longer because of glycerine. Precious rubber is made more durable. Food is more easily transported. Wounds heal better, and burns are more successfully treated. What used to be mortal infections are now being cured by its help as a base for the new s\.llphonamide ointments. 1 Clay Products Available Although a, major part of '~1f" o· tput of the country's 800 brkk a>•d tile plants will be utilized •n corstruction of war housing and o H government project3 dur•r g t 1': n\: t sLx months, there will be amp~e cl y products for essential comn c and farm building.

I · American dollars which run off to some c ozy shelter to hide while American boys are dying to defend our cities and towns from destruction and invasion will face a rising demand from all classes of patriotic citizens to come out and fight. MJllions of workers who now are buying War Bonds regularly out of current income must lend extra money to their government during the Second War Loan campaign (which started April 12). · In recognition of the spirit of sacrifice which is sweeping over the land as our troops swing into offensive action in Africa and await the signal for a landing in Europe, the Treasury Department is offering a series of government bonds to fit every pocketbook. No matter whether Americans buy the familiar Series E Bonds or 2 ~!! per cent bonds or 2 per cent bonds or ~ax certificates, they will be doing their pa~t to make the Second War Loan dnve a success.

CRA.CKEL �THE RECORD, CRETE, ILL. Next Decade to See Changes in Air Travel That Seem Fantastic to All but Aviators But Most of Us \.rVi11 Live To Learn Every Prophecy Has Come True! By EUIO SCOTT WATSON Released by Western Newspaper Union. high school CALIFORNIA youngsters will spend two weeks' study- vacations in a China reached after a fast hop in a plane or a huge dirigible. The graduating classes of Hudson's Bay Eskimo elementary schools will fly to New York or Chicago for supervised studyvisits. Half-naked natives from the fgrests of Malay will fly to universities in California or Australia and fly back to the native villages as agronomists and physicists. "Impossible!" you say- or perhaps only: "Not likely!" As a matter of fact, it's not only possible but it's entirely probable. Y eu can take the word of a man who knows! He is Harry Bruno, who grew up with American aviation and with its early heroes. If any man is qualified to forecast what's ahead in an America that has always pioneered in flight and that will probably be eYeo more dependent on air travel ha tbe future than it has in the past, he is that man. 5lo when he makes such prophecies as those given at the beginning et this article, don't just laugh them etr. Instead, read these words of his: "All this-and more-can be accomplished with the planes and airships that exist today. But the world of to001orrow will fly greater, faster, mlll'e economical flying machines and airships than now exist." You'll find those words in a new book, "Wings Over America- The Inside Story of American Aviation," written by Harry Bruno and published by Robert M. McBridge and Company of New York. It's not goly an interesting book because it's the "inside story" told by a man who, as one of the six original "Quiet Birdmen" and as today's foremost aviation publicist, has first-hand lmowledge of every memorable and spectacular event in the development of America's aerial power. It's also an important book-important right now when America is engaged in a life-and-death struggle. For, as Maj. Alexander P. de Seversky, who wrote the introduction to Mr. Bruno's book, says: "The United Nations will win this war through superior science, or they will not win it at all. We must cut loose from the past and embark upon audacious new strategies, with air power as their core. We must wtilize our superior technological setliP to spring intellectual surprises, in machines and strategic innovatiQns, on the enemy. And thus it will be that the dreamers, the pioneers of yesterday's aviation will become the realists and leaders of today and tomorrow. The dynamics of air power are so intensive that we must plan for tomorrow if we want to be on time today. Fortunately America has the leadership to achieve this. Hany Bruno tells us; where and why." Such being the case, let's "cut loose from the past" (so far as our ideas of the limitations of air travel are concerned) and "embark upon audacious new" voyages into the f11ture with Mr. Bruno. You can do that by reading the last chapter in his book-"The Next Ten Years." Always Look Forward. At the outset of that chapter he says: "The gods of aviation have one rule which all must obey: always look forward." . Then he admonishes us to "Look ten years ahead to a post-war world in which the defeated Axis gangs are a thing of the past, and you see one of the most powerful reasons for each and eYery one of us to buckle down and do our utmost to guarantee this victory. Thanks to aviation, this is one of the most glorious ages in world history." Besides his predictions about the California high school youngsters, the Eskimo school children and the half-naked natives from the forests gf Malay, Mr. Bruno foresees also the day when: "Shepherds will fly from the crags of Tibet to universities in Vladivostok and fly back to their native villages as doctors. "Plane loads of professors will take off from Madrid to train South American Indians in new universities established near new airfields io Colombia, in Venezuela, in Peru.

Planes of the Future. How will they be able to do all Uris? Here is the answer in Mr. Bruno's words: "The big planes of the next decade will glide through the stratosphere at speeds of 600 miles an hour and more. They will enable a man to breakfast in New York and have dinner in Paris on the same day. Citizens of Detroit and Denver will be able to do exactly the same, even though their planes will fly nonstop from their home towns to Europe and South America. "Their planes will not be patterned after the huge flying boats that now cross the oceans. The new planes· of 1952 will be huge stratosphere land planes, whose sealed, oxygenequipped cabins will carry more than 200 passengers in all the luxury and comfort travelers enjoyed on luxury steamships like the Queen Mary and the Normandie. They will be powered by banks of gasoline- PROPHET - Barry Bruno, who "grew up" with American aviation, makes some startling-hut "too conservative," so say his friends-predictions about air travel during the next ten years. burning engines of 5,000 horsepower each. But the use of gasoline, in aviation, will some day be as obsolete as the era of steam in automobiles. Electric engines of 10,000 horsepower, receiving their impulses through rays transmitted from ground stations will supplant gasoline engines within two decades of the end of the war. "Passengers with more time, out for a more economical ocean crossing, will ride in the comfortable helium-filled dirigibles of the new world. These giant cargo and passenger airships will cross the Atlantic in about 36 hours, carrying fast freight and about twice as many passengers as the fast planes." If you decided to sell your automobile because of the inconvenience of gas rationing and wait until after the war to get a new one, don't count too much on becoming a "motorist" again. For, according to Mr. Bruno, automobiles "will start to decline almost as soon as the last shot is fired in World War II. The name of Igor Sikorsky will be as well known as Henry Ford's, for his helicopter will all but replace the horseless carriage as the new means of transportation. Instead of a car in every garage, there will be a helicopter." Why? Well, these marvelous machines can do everything an automobile can do, do it better and besides take you up in the air, far from the gasoline fumes of the crowded highways. Look at this picture of a Sunday afternoon pleasure "drive," as Mr. Bruno paints it: "The family will take off in its heliccpter from the backyard or the roof hangar, climb straight to the level authorized by government regulation, fly on to their destination, and land on earth, on a roof top, or on water-as fancy dictates. Instead of wheels, the craft is mounted on rubber floats-inasmuch as it rises and descends like an elevator anywhere, wheels are not needed. These 'copters will be so safe and wil! cost so little to produce that small models will be made for 'teenage youngsters. These tiny 'copters, when sghool lets out, will fill the skies as the bicycles of our youth filled the pre-war roads." But 'copters aren't the only machiAes that your children and their children will be driving. For, says Mr. Bruno, "the great sport of our youth will be motorless flight. Glider meets will be held all over the country, much like the sailing meets of other years." However, the glider won't be a machine for "pleasure driving" only. It will become an important economic factor in the transportation of the future. "Powerful cargocarrying sky trucks will tow trains of cargo carrying gliders-since all but the bulkiest slow freight will be carried by airplane or glider-towing, cargo-carrying dirigibles. The glider will also become the great transportation medium of commuting." Trains of Gliders. Which means that when you decide to visit Aunt Emma back in Syracuse or Cousin Will out in Oregon, here's how you'll go: "Glider trains, towed by a lead passenger-carrying plane that will fly hundreds of miles, will drop gliders carrying local passengers at airports all along the route. Thus, a trip from New York to Albany, for instance, would be made in a glider attached to the New York-Buffalo sky train. Passengers would board the train at the overhead station of Rockefeller Center. The sky-train, which started from LaGuardia Field, would pick up the Albany glider at Rockefeller Center (and pick it up in flight, too) and continue on toward Buffalo. Over Albany, the conductor-pilot of the Albany glider will cut his craft loose from the train and glide to earth. By the time the lead plane reaches Buffalo, he will have dropped all of his gliders along the route." "But all of these machines can still fall down and kill people-no, sir, I'll stick to good old Mother Earth!" you say. The av.iation of the future will become increasingly safer, Mr. Bruno believes. He writes: "All aircraft will have television weather survey sets, enabling them to see and hear weather conditions along the routes that lie ahead. In this manner, they will be able to fly above or around storm areas and add to the comfort of each flight. "All airplane factories will be entirely underground, air-conditioned and deep enough so that no aerial bomb can ever hurt them. Airports will also go underground and what will appear to be an empty field will suddenly become active when a plane lands on it. A quick taxi to a designed spot, and down will go the underground hangar as the surface sinks under the operation of a large elevator. An international police force, armed with the newest type of air weapon, will have no trouble maintaining order and understanding." Such is Mr. Bruno's preview of "things to come." Do you find them hard to believe? Then reflect upon these final words: "These predictions are a lot more conservative than the flat prediction, in 1900, that before the century was over man would build a machine that would really fly. If anything, most of my friends-men like Igor Sikorsky and C. M. Keys, who read this chapter, for instance-mark the predictions down as being too earthbound, too conservative. And this should tell you that most of you will live to see them all come true I" Aviation Pioneers Made Possible Heroic War Exploits of Today America will never forget the courage and heroism of such World War II heroes as Capt. Colin Kelly Jr., Lieut. Edward H. O'Hare, Gen. Claire Chennault and Gen. James H. Doolittle, who wrote their epics in the air and signed them with their honor. Let us not forget, however, the names of the pioneers who made these war exploits possible-not only tl1e Wright Brothers, Glenn Curtis, Billy 1\'litchell and Admiral Byrd, embroidery does the set in a jiffy -it could even be done in runnin1 stitch.

Here is a partial list of the roll of honor: Calbraith Perry Rodgers, the man who flew across the continent in 1911 and one of the outstanding aviators of prewar America; Jimmy Taylor, the unassuming, little known flying genius who for 20 years was one of our ace test pilots; Lincoln Beachy, a great exhibition pilot who made tests that saved thousands of lives; Vernon Castle, a brilliant wartime aviator who is remembered (if at all) as a dancer; Roscoe Turner, a speed d emon with a useful purpose; Clifford Henderson, the Barnum of aviation, who did more than any aviator except Lindbergh to attract American attention to flying.

Another is planning the purchase of a house an which the stucco has cracked, and in some places fallen. Both of them ask for suggestions on repair. Twenty years or so ago, wide use was made of a stucco in which the principal ingredient was a cementlike material called magnesite. As time has gone on, it has been found that this deteriorated, with a corrosive effect on metal lath. For this reason magnesite is no longer used for stucco, and when it has begun to go bad, the only repair that is practical and permanent is to strip it off and to replace it with portland cement stucco. No surface application can check the corrosion that is going on underneath. Replacement usually includes the providing of new metal lath. With the old stucco taken off, it is sometimes possible to replace it with wood siding over heavy roofing felt. One of my correspondents is considering this, but my choice would be new stucco Princess House Frock on new metal lath over heavy building felt. This, in my opinion, would IKE looking neat, pretty and make the house more air-tight, and efficient? Just button into this there would be greater appeal when princess house frock and presto the time comes to sell. • • • perfection.

Uncffl)!Jft;{ §ay~: There's Hope lor Us Perhaps we are not as absentminded as we are thought to be, or we could forget our troubles. Some men are born great, but the majority don't even have greatness thrust upon them. Every wife knows that it is not all vanity that makes a husband delight in her fine clothes. He glimps~ how it exhilarates her. In face of the drastic fuel oil shortage in the East, and rationing of the supplies which are available, home owners are urged, where possible, to convert oil burning furnaces to coal. Picture shows final step In the converting process - replacement of the coal grates in the furnace. Water Spots on CeiUngs Question: Four years ago we had a new asphalt roof put over a shingled roof. We now discover that after a rainfall water spots of various sizes appear on the ceilings in every room. Could you suggest a remedy? Also, would it ruin the ceiling? Answer: Condensation may be your problem. Thorough ventilation may be the solution; particularly in the attic. If there are no windows in the attic, by all means have them installed. If the ceilings are painted with an oil paint the plaster will not be affected by the dampness on the surface. I am, of course, taking for granted that there is no leakage through the outside walls, around window frames or an outside chimney. Basement Floor Question: Our house now is 13 months old. We painted the basement floor a green color. After the second coat was on it began to turn yellow in large spots. We washed some of the paint off by scrubbing. Can you tell us how we can get a good finish on this floor? Answer: For best results, take off all the paint with a hot solution of three pounds of washing soda to each gallon of water. After removing the paint, rinse well with clear water and allow to dry. You then can finish the floor with a good quality synthetic resin floor paint. Since there always is the possibility of dampness in a cement cellar floor, only this type of paint should be used. Roofing Paper Question: I should like to put roofing paper on the gable roof of my garage. Should I take off the old paper first, or could I put the new paper directly over the old? Is asphalt cement used to fasten the paper? Answer: Yes, remove the old roofing paper. Asphalt roofing cement should be used if the roofing paper is of asl'halt; tar should be used i1 tar oaot .... is to be out on. No one writes the way he talks.

Dried Foods Compressed To Save Shipping Space Wartime shrinking of food to save shipping space brings us, step by step, closer to the old idea of a capsule meal. The latest wrinkle is compressing already dehydrated foods. Additional space saved by compressing ranges from 30 per cent for dried whole milk to 80 per cent for dried cream of cabbage soup. A dehydrated and compressed potato brick, no bigger than a shoe box, can be crumbled in hot water, and, when mixed, makes mashed potatoes for 100 soldiers. Could He? Said Mr. Henpeck, who had just overheard his wife •scolding the maid: "You and I seem to be in the same unfortunate position, Mary." "Not likely I" replied the maid. "I'm giving her a week's notice tomorrow." Should Know Them There was a scream of brakes as the bus pulled to a sudden stop, to avoid a flustered.looking pedestrian who was dithering in the road1(}ay. Crimson with strairt and rage, the driver leaned out of his cab. It was plain he was controlling himself with a great effort as he asked politely: "May I ask what are your plans, sir?" Not Kidding "See that bevy of quail in the underbrush?" "Yes." "Well, watch me shoot a hole clear through the red barn behind 'em."

Life is like a mountain: after climbing up one side and sliding down the other, put up the sled. -Josh Billings. "Miss Climber says she is very fond of young De Sapp." "Why, I thought she was a man hater." "So she is. I suppose that's wlty she likes De Sapp." In Riding a Bicycle, We Balance With Our Ears The transportation restrictions have sent many thousands of people back to the bicycle. Some of us had not ridden a bicycle for years, but the art of balancing on two wheels came back to us easily enough. Now, why don't we fall over? The tires on the bicycle are a semi-circular pattern, you will have noticed, and when you come to think about it they do look pretty precarious. In fact, it is obvious that you are going to hold them up, not they hold you. The truth is that we balance our bicycles with our ears. It is all part of our normal make-up, this balancing act, and we commence putting it into operation as soon as we begin to walk. T)1e ear is divided into three parts: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. Our balancing mechanism is contained in the inner ear. There we have two tiny canals filled with liquid. We might almost call them "fluid levels," for they function in much the same way. When the liquid is moved by the sway of the head it touches tiny hairs which convey to the brain the message that we are overbalancing.

The method of measuring is shown here. Slip cover material usually comes in 36 and 50-inch widths. Frequently a narrow chair back may be covered by splitting a 50inch width of goods. For other chairs 36-inch material might be cut to better advantage. If the material has a large figure an extra yard will be needed for matching and centering the design. Decide in advance which seams are to be accented with welting or trimming and measure them to determine the amount needed. • • • NOTE-Do the springs in your chairs need fixing?

Released by Western Newspaper Union. --------...1 Yards rather than· miles were the measure of Russian gains on the Smolensk sector as the thaw-soddened central front was further mired by heavy spring rains. Further to the south, however, the Red forces menaced the steadily shrinking German bridgehead in the Northwest Caucasus by the capture of Anastasevskaya, 38 miles northwest of Novorossisk on the last highway link between Nazi forces north and south of the Kuban river. Elsewhere, fresh German tank assault<> against the Soviet line on the Doncts river east of Kharkov were rolled back by the stout Red defenders. In the north the Germans tacitly reported a retreat near Staraya Russa, between Moscow and Leningrad, by admitting a "withdrawal to prepared positions." TIRES: Synthetics 0. K. The toll of German prisoners has increased steadily as British and American forces have driven in on Rommel's cornered Axis forces in Tunisia. Typical of the multitude of captives is the above group of German prisoners taken in the British drive north of Gabes. I NORTH AFRICA: Axis Hold Shrinks FOOD SUBSIDY: Urged to Aid Poor Of key importance in heralding the possibility of an earlier-than-expected finish of the Tunisian campaign were reports that the harbor and shipping facilities of Gabes had been left undamaged by the Axis forces in their hasty retreat from Gen. Montgomery's onslaughts. With Gabes functioning as an Allied supply port, the long overland haul of war materials from Tripoli or Bengazi far down the African coast in Libya could be avoided. Moreover, Allied sea and air power concentrated in Gabes could further harass the Axis forces. The all-over battle for North Africa was not yet won, but steadily British armies from the north and south and American armies from the center were tightening the squeeze on the remaining Axis troops in Tunisia. As Marshal Rommel's forces had made their last desperate effort to beat their way northward for a ju ction with Col. Gen. Von Arnim's troops in the Bizerte area, reports indicated that the Axis had flown fresh troops into Tunisia. To relieve the pressure on Rommel, Von Arnim's forces had staged a brief counter - offensive against British forces near Bizerte. Control of the air over North Africa had appeared to be turning overwhelmingly in the Allies' favor, as raids shook the Axis lines and turned Rommel's retreat into a nightmare. Meanwhile in answer to reports that Germany had commandeered the Italian fleet and all avail~le French merchantmen preparatory to an attempt to evacuate Halo-German armies from Tunisia in an Axis "Dunkirk," the Allies staged an unprecedented raid by 100 Flying Fortresses that smashed the important Axis supply base at Cagliari, Sardinia, damaging 26 merchant ships and putting 71 enemy planes out of commission. Simultaneously, waves of American Billy Mitchell bombers struck at an Axis convoy in the Sicilian narrows, sinking at ll!ast three large ships and leaving others burning and settling. Suggesting that the government pay persons in low income groups special allowances to enable them to buy sufficient food, Roy F. Hendrickson, head of the Food Distribution administration, declared he believed that otherwise these people would "find it tough to get food." Emphasizing that his statements were his own personal views, Hendrickson declared that the plan he advocates would aid the farmer. Declaring the problem had to be "treated from both ends," he said that the farmer had become discouraged because food costs have gone so high while prices paid him have not risen in proportion. "We have got to see that the farmer is able to market his stuff," Hendrickson declared. Any volume of income to the purchasing class is bound to help the farmer." In addition to the low income groups, he suggested payments for the aged, the blind and otherwis~ handicapped. ' c INVESTIGATION: Of U. S.-Held Foods Into a maze of charges and countercharges that the government itself had become No. 1 food hoarder, the senate's Truman investigating committee plunged in an effort to obtain the facts. Chairman Harry S. Truman announced that a two-way investigation was in progress. One phase is to inquire into the amount of food held by government agencies. The other was to inv!!stigate the needs of the armed forces. Information from both government and private sources had been obtained, he said. Previously, members of the food trade and others had charged that t!le armed services are hoarding processed foods and thus forcing less than necessary civilian allowances under rationing. "Supplies of food for the armed forces must be sufficiently great to assure that there will be plenty of food for our soldiers and sailors," Truman said. "However, care must be taken to assure that the government does not itself become a hoarder." HIGHLIGHTS POSTWAR PLANS: Poland Speaks Up With postwar peace plans gammg increased attention in Allied chancellories, the Polish government-inexile served notice that Poles would resist "to the last man" any claims from any quarter aimed at the "sovereignty and integrity of Poland." Spokesman for the Poles was Prime Minister Wladyslaw Sikorski, now a resident of London. Target of the statesman's remarks was Russia, since the Soviet government recently announced its intention of retaining the :J;>olish Ukraine and the area bordering on White Russia which was ta~en from Poland under the German-Russi;m partition of Poland in 1939. But even as he stoutly proclaimed his doctrines of independence, Sikorski recommended that an Allied air force should go to the Russian front after the fighting in Tunisia is concluded as an expression of United Nations' solidarity. He predicted a third German offensive by the German armies against Russia. CIVILIAN GOODS: No Further Cuts? SOUTH PACIFIC: Bombs Break Lull American bombs exploding on Kiska in the Aleutian Islands, Vila in the central Solomons, Kahili in the Shortlands and in Japanese holdings north of Australia broke the lull in the Pacific war theater. While the foregoing raids had nuisance and punitive value, General MacArthur's fliers in New Guinea centered their attacks on enemy supply and communication lines between Wewak and Madang and strafed the entire Salamaua area. A communique from Allied headquarters said that low-altitude raids in the Salamaua area with bombs, cannon and machine gun fire had subjected this front to the most intensive damage this Jap base had yet received.

'AIR POLICE': To Insure Peace Air power as a police force preserving world peace after the war was envisioned by former President Herbert Hoover, who proposed that the United Nations strip the HERBERT HOOVER Taking stock of America's industrial power, Donald M. Nelson, chairman of the War Production board, declared that "Today we are turning out more goods for war than we ever produced for our peacetime needs, yet we have enough power left over to keep civilian standards of living at a high level." Mr. Nelson predicted in an address in Chicago that the United States this year will turn out more than 80 billion dollars worth of goods for war purposes. The WPB chief's 1943 estimate compares with 48 billion in 1942, the first year after Pearl Harbor, 17 billion in 1941 and four billion in 1940, the year 'Germany smashed her way across Europe. The figures will get even bigger, Mr. Nelson said, adding "as they grow the armies and cities of the Axis will feel an ever-fiercer flame, a more terrifying blast from the guns and bombs of America." Eventual victory, he declared, already is being foreshadowed in the "cold hard figures of production." in the week's news Two events pointed to the conclusion that the nation's synthetic rubber producing program was proceeding successfully. One was the appearance of Rubber Director William M. Jeffers before a senate committee with a heavy duty synthetic truck tire and his statement that the artificial elastic had been perfected "to the point where it will very nearly meet all requirements without mixing witb natural rubber." The other was the action of the rubber division and the department of agriculture in reducing the immediate planting of guayule, a rubber producing shrub from 53,000 acres to between 13,000 and 20,000 acres. Jeffers warned, however, that the rubber situation was still critical. ~ L------------------:---------------...1 OTTAWA: Meat rationing for WASHINGTON: Two new rear adCanada, effective early in May on mirals were added to the navy's rosthe basis of two pounds a person ter when President Roosevelt noma week, was announced by Finance inated Capt.

DRAFT: Reaches War Plants As the need for military manpower increased a nation-wide search of war factories for men of draft age who could be replaced by women or older men was undertaken. So great is the need, Selective Service officials revealed, that the canvass of the war plants might result in calling for military service thousands of men now classified 2A and 2B-men actually producing tools of war or working in direct support of the war effort. State directors of Selective Service, conferring in Washington with Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, draft director, surveyed the over-all operations covering inductions for the future. Not only would practices govern· ing the drafting of fathers be clearly defined, but under consideration were measures in connection with a compulsory labor draft, investigating of labor hoarding by war indus· tries and the return to agricultural work of farm workers who have en tered industry. Who's News This Week By Delos Wheeler Lovelace Consolidated Featurea.-WNU Release, NEW YORK.-A couple of years ago Chester C.

Six of Our States As food administrator he ought to like whatever the 5,000,000 farmers can grow, even if it is spir1ach. Fifty-slx years old now, Davis used to be footloose. He was born in Iowa and got his AB at little Grinnell, but later he picked up a law degree at Clemson in South Carolina, and his first job was in Sonth Dakota. He was editor of a pint-sized paper there and then be rolJed mosslessly on to Montana. Montana always has a fine crop of girls, and he married one in 1913 and finally became state agricultural commissioner, Marriage nails most men down, especially when it produces two sons, but Davis rolled on to Illinois to run first a grain marketing association and then a cornstalks processing company. All this seems skitter-skatter, but it turned out to be just right for a job with the Agricultural Adjustment administration, first as director, then as administrator. And that led, by a neatly selective process, into the Federal Reserve system. He has been president of the reserve bank in St. Louis for several years and maybe in defense against people wanting money he has formed the habit of dropping his fieshy face and looking somberly from under heavy eyebrows. • NOW and then the production of this column is interrupted by a young buck from next door who speaks the irreverent jargon of the Yellow Peril of hWho t sfp 0 t s. en, or exTokyo a GangtJter ample, grave To Reckon With elder speaks somberly of Japan's dangerous Premier Hideki Tojo he swings in with a carefree "Hi-de-ho."

Now· he will only c10ush our wer in the Pacific. He seems to figure this won't be so difficult with those 26 new dictatorial laws, and with a new economic council to cut red tape. Tojo, according to men lately back from the Far East, heads l!P a band of military gangsters.

Humbert has always given the Fascist salute with crossed fingers. His dissent, necessarily, has been guarded save perhaps when he balked at the Ethiopian razzia. But at 38 he could easily feel ready to come out in the open and tip over a tottering dictator. He should know, too, how to run an army. He was a general on active duty two years ago. And this spring he led the Italians in Russia. Backward, mainly, but still it was experience. Once Humbert wrote a friend that be doubted he ever would be king. His prospects are brighter now, but even if he still feels the same way, he has a son. As head of the army he might cinch the throne for the nipper. He has a daughter, too. His wife was Princess Marie Jose of Belgium. They live more happily than most pairs who make marriages of state.

By BAUKHAGE New.• Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. "Home on a furlough." I wonder how many of my readers rem~mber that very popular print of two (or maybe more) generations ago. Well, never mind if you don't (though I would appreciate a letter from any who do); "home on a furlough" is going to mean something quite different now. I remember the original picture only vaguely. I didn't know what the word "furlough" meant. But I know there was a tousle-headed blond boy in the middle of an admiring farm family, telling his adventures. Today, the farm boy with a conscience, and the farm family with a farm, are looking forward to the "furlough" that will bring the boy home for work, not the telling of his tales of adventure. It isn't going to be quite that way. The President, when the farm bloc was riding the administration its hardest last month, went into considerable detail as to what was to be done to solve the farm labor question. · Since then some concrete steps have been taken but not the ones the farmers, or some of them, would have liked. They would have liked their own sons, or their own hands, who enlisted because they simply couldn't stay "out of the show," back doing the old chores they used to do. But this is what the army said: "The army does not contemplate furloughing individual soldiers to work on farms," the war department announced in a statement clarifying policies and procedures by which soldiers may be used to alleviate the farm labor shortage. "World War I experience demonstrated that such temporary releases of individual ooldiers were of little assistance to the agriculture industry and disrupted the organization ana training of the army. If furloughs were granted for this purpose, neither agriculture nor the army' could' be assured that the \soldiers thus furloughed actually would be engaged in agricultural activities. "Certain emergency situations may develop in which vital crops may be endangered because of critical shortages in local agricultural labor. In such cases, military units may be employed under command of their own officers to supplement the local farm labor until the crisis ii over. "Troops so employed will be housed and fed by the army and will be subject to military control at all times. "Requests for use of military units for emergency farm duty must be transmitted to the war department by the chairman of the War Manpower commission." Another Loophole However, there is another loophole which all of the farmers or the farm men in service may not know about. A soldier over 38 years of age who is on active duty in the continental United States can get his discharge right now if he can ge;t a statement from his local farm agent to the effect that he is needed. But the application has to get in by May 1. The same thing applies to men overseas and they have untU June. (Better tell them by V -Mail.) The President explained to us twice, why a batch of young men couldn't be pulled out of a division and sent home. You can take 10 or 20 soldiers out of an outfit that has just started training and it doesn't make much difference. But you can't take that many men out of an outfit already trained and booked for overseas. Not witho_ut crippli?g the outfit so badly that It really mterferes with battle plans. That's his explanation and he made it t? us the other day, leaning ?ack m his chair and obviously trymg hard to get over an idf::a that he believes is right. There is going to be a "land army." He said he didn't like the term because it made the farmers think they were going to have a lot of green city folks descend on them He knows what the farmers think about folks who will scare the horses, sprain their ankles try to milk a cow and when she' doesn't give, say: "The valves are stuck." One farmer wrote me he'd rather have grasshoppers than city folks on his place. England'• Method The Pre:.ident said to us that in England they have increased food production 60 per cent. And they did it with the help of a land army, mostly women with no previous training. They got the training. A lot depends on the training. I talked with a farmer near her~ who took on a city boy, green as grass. The boy probably thought shorts were something you wore and probably would have looked in the toolbox for a boar. Maybe you heard him talk on the Farm and Home Hour. Well, I met him and the farmer, too. The kid is crazy to get back this summer and the farmer told me he was sick when he !<tad to let him go back to school. City folks are dumb in a lot of ways. But so are farmers. It's true you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Also, a lot of horses have got the sense to drink if you've got sense to lead them to the water. In spite of dumb help or none at all, in spite of lack of machines and a lot of red tape, the farmers of the country have signed up to raise a bigger crop than they've ever raised. I believe with a little horse sense and patience, they are going to pull through. No team pulled together until they were in harness. If they don't, God help us and the army at meal time. • • • The WeatherA Dead Topic As you know, mention of the weather on the radio these days is forbidden. The newspapers can describe a snow storm or a hot spell but the radio commentators cannot. There is a good reason for this. A lurking submarine could pick up a newscast, and if enough facts concerning the weather were revealed by 'stations in enough widely sep- ' arated localities, even an amateur meteorologist-and the Germans are no amateurs-could make a pretty good weather forecast by putting two and two together. But being unable to describe the manifestations of nature that I see on my way to work in the morning is a terrible handicap to me. Recently I've gotten around the difficulty by talking about last week's weather, and before going on the air, reading what I was going to say to the censorship officials and getting their 0. K. In no case did they restrict me. The other day, however, I forgot to call up the Censorship office but the Blue Network didn't forget. I got this message: "Censorship says you have to cut out all references to weather from now on. They say that there was nothing actually censorable in what you have said or what you have written today but so many complaints have come in from other stations that you were violating the regulations, and so many other stations have been using your comments on the weather as an excuse for violating the rule, that we will have to ask you to stop discussing the subject entireiy." The following is what censorship didn't let me say but what it has no objection to my printing: "It was pretty hard the past week not to mention the swiftly changi.rig scene which nature provided Washingtonians-one day, not so long ago a top coat was far too heavy for comfort and in the park, the dark patches were beginning to be studded with jeweled buds and the sunlight seemed to turn into solid gold on the bursting forsythia. On that balmy day I remarked-'Well, we must be due for a blizzard.' ' "Twenty-four hours later the fine snow began to fall and late that afternoon and the following morning the tree limbs and trunks wer; wrapped in great soft blankets of down-even the high branches were wide bands of white-but when we went home from work in the evening, the streets were dry and clean again and only here and there in the shadow of a hedge· or in the sheltering cups of the brown ivy leaves was a dust of snow-like a meager spri.nkling of precious sugar on the rim of a doughnut.."

But on the way 5he meets hll brother, Angus, and she reaUzes that she must not come between l.be two men. So when l.be Wblte Queen docks, sbe stays on board. But Will, operating a crane, Is attracted by the slgbt of a girl on tbe deck. He loses bls balance and Is ktlled. Learning lbat Angus blames her, Robin (oes to his boat to walt for him and falls asleep. When she awakes she ftods that the boat has sailed, carrylnc her toward Labrador as a stowaway. Also aboard are Angus, Pat Donohoe and a French-speakln( cabin boy named Romeo. Robin Is ask· log blm the time. CHAPTER VIU "Qu~:~le heure est-il?" With a flash of smiling teeth Romeo answered at the same hme pointing to an alarm clock hanging on a nail against the forward bulkhead. Twenty minutes past two. She calculated swiftly-twelve plus two and a half, plus, say five and a half-that they must be eighteen hours out of Moose Bay. Maybe '200 miles? Romeo was saying something and pointing. The galley opened into the narrow triangular forecastle with two bunks and a litter of stores and gear; and a steel ladder led up through an open hatch to t~e deck. She thought Romeo was telhng her to go up on the bow deck, and she stepped into the forecastle; but then she saw that the pilothouse was accessible by a set of steel rungs against the bulkhead on the starboard side. She looked up into Pat Donohoe's scarred and battered countenance. He was looking down at her between his knees, tne toes of his boots not six inches from her nose as she stood below him. He and Angus were together there, and Pat moved his great bulk out of her way to let her climb up to join them, then slid past her and down into the forecastle to give her room enough. Angus McPhail, at the wheel, looked at her with those eyes which so curiously always seemed gray though they were really blue, and she sat down beside him; said, "Good afternoon." "Sleep all right?" he asked quietly. "I didn't know anything till-Romeo, is it-waked me. Did you? You seem rested." surely too far away to have seen Robin; she was too well hidden behind Mr. McPhail and in the shadows of the pilothouse to be seen. Yet Mr. Jenkins not only lifted his hand; he raised his hat! Ang~o~s McPhail looked at her sharply, as though expecting to catch her in the act of returning that salutation. "Did he know you were aboard here?" he demanded. "I don't see how he could." "He may have seen you come aboard last night." "I'm sure he didn't." Angus stared at the other boat which drew rapidly away ahead of them. He leaned sidewise to look down into the forecastle. "Pat?" he called. "Aye, sorr!" "Where are you? Where's Romeo?" "Aft. Will I call him, sorr?" "No, no matter. You come take her, Pat." Pat Donohoe climbed into the pilot-house; he went around behind the high seat to McPhail's other side. McPhail asked him a question. "Pat, how did you know I'd be on the White Queen?" "Sure, sorr, Will told me." "Of course that's so " Angus assented disar:ningly. ,:So you met me?" d .d th t , .. . 1 . a · , Did Will tell you he d meet us at the bunkhouse?" "Sure and that one never knew where he'd be from one minute t' I "i ''Some.'' She remembered the narrow bench in the cabin that m\..st have been his bed, spoke of it. "I'm afraid you were uncomfortable." "No, I didn't sleep there. I came into the fo'c's'le. One or the other of the men had the wheel all night, so there was an extra bunk. I got up at Salmon River. We tagged a dozen or fifteen fish." "Oh! Did we stop? Why didn't you put me off?" "I'll take you on to Beaver River. We'll get there late tonight or early tomorrow. A steamer stops there tomorrow night. You'll be in plenty of time to catch it." She looked at him, thinking he was himself again, remote, controlled, quiet and steady as a rock. But she had gone to sleep last night with a question in her mind. She said: "Mr. McPhail-forgive me-may I ask you something?" "Of course." "Did-your brother expect you on the White Queen?" Something quickened in his eyes; moved and then was still. "Yes," he said, after a moment. She guessed that this question had occurred to him before, had been forgotten till just now. "But then," she urged, "why didn't he meet you, or call to you when you landed, or something? Instead of letting you gb oii to shore?" It was some time before Angus answered . When he did, he seemed to think aloud. "I wasn't sure the White Queen would stop at Rimouski," he said. ''I wrote him I'd catch her if I could, but that otherwise I might have to come by plane. I said I'd let him know; but I forgot to write him again, or wire him or anything. So he didn't know surely I'd be on her." "Oh!" For a while she did not speak, nor did he; but she was not satisfied. Then she remembered Pat Donohoe, and she had a dozen questions instantly. "Didn't your boatman, Mr. Donohoe, know where your brother was? He met you at the boat. He knew you were coming, Mr. McPhail. He must have known your brot!'!er was right there on the wharf, mustn't he?" McPhail's head swung sharply away from her. She thought at first he had turned away to avoid her eyes; but he said in a soft surprise, "Hullo!" She leaned forward to look past him through the small side window to see what had caught his atten: lion. A gray motor cruiser like a submarine chaser drew smoothly abreast of them, traveling three feet to their two. Robin recognized it; and as It .hauled ahead of them, she recogmzed the man on deck even at th:s conside rable distance' as Mr. Jenkins. She said, unneces: sarily: "Why, it's Mr. Jenkins!" Angus did not speak. Mr. Jenkins li.fted a hand in greeting. He was ........ ~·· Romeo was amused at her efforts to talk French. the next; they worked him so. He'd be at this job and that, faster than a man could wink." "Queer he didn't see me land?" "He'd be paying attention to his job. Eh, he was such a hand to work you've no idea, sorr. Never another thing in the mind of him but the job he was at, ever, to be sure." Angus McPhail said sternly: "Pat, if you E!ver lied to me, I'd break you in nine pieces, big as you are." Pat chuckled. "Sure, sorr, you'd be welcome to. But if I ever did, it'd be a lie that had to be told, sorr. Maybe about something that was best forgot. Well you know that's true." Robin watched Mr. Jenkins' boat drawing away, ahead of them, and she thought there was sometimes between two men a thing no wornan could ever understand, strange and deep and beautiful. Angus MePhail said now: "Pat, you're a lying Irish blackguard! If a Scotchman hadn't invented the wheelbarrow, you'd never have learned to walk on your hind legs." Pat chuckled. "If 'twas a Scotchman did that, it was so he could get two men's work out of one Irishman, be sure, sorr. Shall I take her now?" Angus nodded. He spoke to Robin. "We'll go aft." Romeo was busy in the galley; and he smiled at her a s she passed and she at him. In the cabin, Angus shut the galley door, and he said: "Pat will not tell the truth till he's ready. No use pressing h1m. You notice he evaded answering." He sat down wearily. "Will was probably drunk," he decided. "I should have guessed that. I can s ee now that Pat tried to keep us apart till Will had time to sober ofi. The boy was a wild, reckless fool, wh en he'd had a drink or two. I s uppose he insisted on handling the crane, and someone let him." She thought of Will McPhail asleep on a bench in the Public Gar· dens with a roll of newspaper like a lily in h1s hands; of Will, after champagne, forgetting where he jli\·ed; of Will on the marrowbones of repentance outside her door, with sackcloth and ashes on his back. Will had been fun; but he seemed now infinitely remote, as though he had never lived. After all, the dead are the lucky ones. It is the living who grieve, who must go on living. People like Angus here. She said: "Pat loves you, doesn't he?" "Pat? We've knocked around together quite a lot." He said reluctantly: "Miss Dale, if Will was drunk, that's the answer. Not anything you did. No drunken man can handle a ticklish job like that. I've been half-crazy these three days. At least I know-well, I'm sorry I blamed you." "It's all right." "Even if he'd been sober-! suppose it's never fair to blame a woman for being beautiful and wanting to have it noticed. You might as well blame a kitten that chases its tail." He looked at her honestly. "I'm sane enough today. Talk never mended a broken plate; but-I'm sorry to have spoken wrongly to you." "I'm glad you're sorry, and glad you told me so." She hesitated, then on sudden decision she said: "I think I'll ten you something, Mr. McPhail." He looked at her and she said carefully: "When your brother saw me, he didn't just see a pretty girl in a bathing suit." Her voice was grave. "He recognized me, Mr. McPhail.'' He stared at her. "You knew Will?" She told the truth then, in a dozen sentences. While sho spoke he watched her keenly, thinking how young she was, remembering Will's words. "Oh, baby, wait for papa!" She was wrong, of course. Will had not known her. But if she was happier in thinking that he had . . She finished and he asked with a curious gentleness: "You came to Moose Bay to see him?" "Yes. I meant to surprise him." "I see. But-when I told you about this trip he and I had planned, you decided to stay on the White Queen so Will and I could have our trip together?" There was no need of any answer. She made none. He turned toward the after companionway. "We're coming in to LaLogue River," he said, in an abstracted tone. "I'll get the gear ready. You might be interested to see how we tag the salmon." When they came on deck, it was she who saw the plane, flying very high, a mile or two behind them, at times half hidden in the lower masses of the clouds. She pointed it c.ut to him. "It's a Government ship," Angus decided, and watched it curiously. "Hullo, look, it's circling!" The plane seemed in fact to hover in one place, like a fishhawk watching a flounder in the shallows. It circled, it drew figures of eight; it loitered in the skies. Yet it was overhauling them. By the time they drew in toward the shore a mile or two short of the river mouth, the plane had passed on beyond the river, still flying in that strangely dilatory fashion. They anchored, and at their signal a fisherman on shore put off in his boat and rowed toward them. Before he reached the cruiser, the sound of the plane's motor had receded as it moved slowly eastward. Mr. Jenkins and his boat were already out of sight, three or four miles ahead of the plane. That business of tagging the sal· mon did interest Robin. Having one.: or twice fished with her fa· ther, she had thought of the men who netted salmon as butchers, sou:less and depraved, killing beautiful fish by the scores. But the man who rowed them now did not look the villain. His name was Dubois; and he had the stocky shoulders and the lean hips and the sturdy legs of his breed, with a pleasant eye, a .firm jaw, an easy slow way of speaking. Dubois, in the bow, said over his shoulder: "Here's a live one for you!" Robin stood up to look; and she saw the net floats were being tugged to and fro by some disturbance in the net below. A moment later, Dubois lifted into the boat a snarl of net. They took from that net a dozen dead salmon and three live ones which Angus tagged and released. There were eight nets alongshore at LaLogue, four to the west of the river mouth and four to the east of it, spaced a half-mile or so apart. Angus and Pat worked them; but after the first, Robin stayed aboard with Romeo. He was amused at her efforts to talk French; and his j flattering glances were eloquent enough of the satisfaction he found in her company . When Angus came aboard, after the second net, he said: ''See here, Romeo's prancing like a goat! i wouldn't be too friendly with hi!'1, Miss Dale ." "He 's teaching me French," she e xplained. "I can already understand some of the thmgs he says, 1£ he talks very slowly." Angus said thoughtfully : "I think , th e re are a Jot of thin gs you don't understand at all." He added, as though this cons ideration rea ssured him : "But we'll be at Beaver Rive,before daylight."

It's pretty but easy to make, and will top off either a light or heavy meal. These are times when ch::.nges are the fashion-and that particularly applies to changes in foods and cooking methods. Mrs. America can no longer dash to the grocer's and get enough canned or processed foods to put together a quick meal. Nor can she get together a meal, even one that would take time, with those rationed foods. Points must be budgeted far more carefully than dollars and cents in the past! That is the realization every homemaker has been feeling since Ration Book II went into effect. Out of that has arisen one tnaxim : never to buy a canned or processed food if a fresh one is available. Confusion, indecision, anrl slowness in buying were the adjectives grocers used when buying with War Ration Book II began. But this is gradually wearing away as Mrs. America learns new shopping methods. Since point values change monthly, it's a good idea to keep a list of point values on hand when making the menu. Plan menus for a week at tt time-marketing lists and bndget lists all on hand when you're no.ng this important bit of work. Don't go to the store and wander aimlessly, selecting whatever appeals to the eye. Even if you have four or five ration l::,ooks from which to spend, it's certain you won't get enough out of them by the hit or miss method. Keep 0:1 the lookout for point values which may change-they vary from month to month am~ sometimes change during the month as the public's buying habits are watched. Haphazard shopping, meal-planning, and carelessness about the health of the family are out o~ date. The homemaker must be alert and vigilant now as never before to make of her family the strongest a n d healthiest possible unit-for a healthy America is a strong America.

Edu(·<.tion•l camp1i"'ns have been succes.Jful in many c1hcs in securing co-operation of the pulJlic in observing anti-nm<e 'Jrdinances. In a few ci1.ics, Jail sc n•t'ncPs ha\'e been imposed, however. Fines imposed by n any ordinances, also, range up to $500.

In add tion, man:y cities ha\ e tr t1fik, nuisc.ncc and other orclinan 't s dosiJ:~:1-::d to regulate ·noise to some extent. The scope of opportunities for women in chemistry is almost unlimited, Dr. Helen I. Miner of Wayne university declares. Surveying the Detroit area, Dr. Miner finds that, while three years ago the majority of women chemists were engaged in t eaching or medical research, today a larger proportion is represented in the fields of industry and medicine and the number is limited by the supply rather than the demand. "Conclusion of the war will not contract this extended horizon for women chemists," Dr. Miner asserts. "In the reconstruction period which must follow there still will be acute needs for trained Americans of both sexes and of varied racial backgrounds to go' abroad to arsi~t in the multitude of probl"tnS-ntltrttional, m edical, agricultural, and mdustrial-which must l.Je solved in winning the peace." World War I provided the inili'! stimulus for the first large scole pL.rticipation in scientific endca vor l,y women, Dr. Miner points out. "lo 1918 the number of women cht•m· ists in the American Chemicill society more than tripled th e !!Jl4 figure and enrollments in medical and scientific courses in the universitiLS throughout this country v.. ere greatly increased."

Nobel commenced his exlleriments in the utilization of the explosive powers of nitroglycerine. For that reason the soap industry, 1enerally thought to be remote froB!l the direct war effort, ftnds itsel1 shouldered with the retapon:5ibilicy rA. producing suftl.cient glycerine to meet the great demands for high explosives by the armed aervices, bd\h of this country and the United Natlona, and the mining industry. Glycerine, always important because of its mat)y uses in industry, medicine, and the arts, is a vital product today because it is an essential ingredient of the high explosives demanded by war. The de· mand for glycerine is constant and urgent-for explosives such as dynamite, for propellants such as cordite, and for hundreds of other purposes contributing to the welfare of the United States and her Allies. When the war machines start rolling, glycerine is indispensable. It is indispensable f:rom the beginning of the fight to the end. The defense worker uses it in production; the soldier needs it for battle; the wounded man is grateful for it in the field hospital. Tanks, ships and planes last longer because of glycerine. Precious rubber is made more durable. Food is more easily transported. Wounds heal better, and burns are more successfully treated. What used to be mortal infections are now being cured by its help as a base for the new s\.llphonamide ointments. 1 Clay Products Available Although a, major part of '~1f" o· tput of the country's 800 brkk a>•d tile plants will be utilized •n corstruction of war housing and o H government project3 dur•r g t 1': n\: t sLx months, there will be amp~e cl y products for essential comn c and farm building.

I · American dollars which run off to some c ozy shelter to hide while American boys are dying to defend our cities and towns from destruction and invasion will face a rising demand from all classes of patriotic citizens to come out and fight. MJllions of workers who now are buying War Bonds regularly out of current income must lend extra money to their government during the Second War Loan campaign (which started April 12). · In recognition of the spirit of sacrifice which is sweeping over the land as our troops swing into offensive action in Africa and await the signal for a landing in Europe, the Treasury Department is offering a series of government bonds to fit every pocketbook. No matter whether Americans buy the familiar Series E Bonds or 2 ~!! per cent bonds or 2 per cent bonds or ~ax certificates, they will be doing their pa~t to make the Second War Loan dnve a success.

CRA.CKEL �THE RECORD, CRETE, ILL. Next Decade to See Changes in Air Travel That Seem Fantastic to All but Aviators But Most of Us \.rVi11 Live To Learn Every Prophecy Has Come True! By EUIO SCOTT WATSON Released by Western Newspaper Union. high school CALIFORNIA youngsters will spend two weeks' study- vacations in a China reached after a fast hop in a plane or a huge dirigible. The graduating classes of Hudson's Bay Eskimo elementary schools will fly to New York or Chicago for supervised studyvisits. Half-naked natives from the fgrests of Malay will fly to universities in California or Australia and fly back to the native villages as agronomists and physicists. "Impossible!" you say- or perhaps only: "Not likely!" As a matter of fact, it's not only possible but it's entirely probable. Y eu can take the word of a man who knows! He is Harry Bruno, who grew up with American aviation and with its early heroes. If any man is qualified to forecast what's ahead in an America that has always pioneered in flight and that will probably be eYeo more dependent on air travel ha tbe future than it has in the past, he is that man. 5lo when he makes such prophecies as those given at the beginning et this article, don't just laugh them etr. Instead, read these words of his: "All this-and more-can be accomplished with the planes and airships that exist today. But the world of to001orrow will fly greater, faster, mlll'e economical flying machines and airships than now exist." You'll find those words in a new book, "Wings Over America- The Inside Story of American Aviation," written by Harry Bruno and published by Robert M. McBridge and Company of New York. It's not goly an interesting book because it's the "inside story" told by a man who, as one of the six original "Quiet Birdmen" and as today's foremost aviation publicist, has first-hand lmowledge of every memorable and spectacular event in the development of America's aerial power. It's also an important book-important right now when America is engaged in a life-and-death struggle. For, as Maj. Alexander P. de Seversky, who wrote the introduction to Mr. Bruno's book, says: "The United Nations will win this war through superior science, or they will not win it at all. We must cut loose from the past and embark upon audacious new strategies, with air power as their core. We must wtilize our superior technological setliP to spring intellectual surprises, in machines and strategic innovatiQns, on the enemy. And thus it will be that the dreamers, the pioneers of yesterday's aviation will become the realists and leaders of today and tomorrow. The dynamics of air power are so intensive that we must plan for tomorrow if we want to be on time today. Fortunately America has the leadership to achieve this. Hany Bruno tells us; where and why." Such being the case, let's "cut loose from the past" (so far as our ideas of the limitations of air travel are concerned) and "embark upon audacious new" voyages into the f11ture with Mr. Bruno. You can do that by reading the last chapter in his book-"The Next Ten Years." Always Look Forward. At the outset of that chapter he says: "The gods of aviation have one rule which all must obey: always look forward." . Then he admonishes us to "Look ten years ahead to a post-war world in which the defeated Axis gangs are a thing of the past, and you see one of the most powerful reasons for each and eYery one of us to buckle down and do our utmost to guarantee this victory. Thanks to aviation, this is one of the most glorious ages in world history." Besides his predictions about the California high school youngsters, the Eskimo school children and the half-naked natives from the forests gf Malay, Mr. Bruno foresees also the day when: "Shepherds will fly from the crags of Tibet to universities in Vladivostok and fly back to their native villages as doctors. "Plane loads of professors will take off from Madrid to train South American Indians in new universities established near new airfields io Colombia, in Venezuela, in Peru.

Planes of the Future. How will they be able to do all Uris? Here is the answer in Mr. Bruno's words: "The big planes of the next decade will glide through the stratosphere at speeds of 600 miles an hour and more. They will enable a man to breakfast in New York and have dinner in Paris on the same day. Citizens of Detroit and Denver will be able to do exactly the same, even though their planes will fly nonstop from their home towns to Europe and South America. "Their planes will not be patterned after the huge flying boats that now cross the oceans. The new planes· of 1952 will be huge stratosphere land planes, whose sealed, oxygenequipped cabins will carry more than 200 passengers in all the luxury and comfort travelers enjoyed on luxury steamships like the Queen Mary and the Normandie. They will be powered by banks of gasoline- PROPHET - Barry Bruno, who "grew up" with American aviation, makes some startling-hut "too conservative," so say his friends-predictions about air travel during the next ten years. burning engines of 5,000 horsepower each. But the use of gasoline, in aviation, will some day be as obsolete as the era of steam in automobiles. Electric engines of 10,000 horsepower, receiving their impulses through rays transmitted from ground stations will supplant gasoline engines within two decades of the end of the war. "Passengers with more time, out for a more economical ocean crossing, will ride in the comfortable helium-filled dirigibles of the new world. These giant cargo and passenger airships will cross the Atlantic in about 36 hours, carrying fast freight and about twice as many passengers as the fast planes." If you decided to sell your automobile because of the inconvenience of gas rationing and wait until after the war to get a new one, don't count too much on becoming a "motorist" again. For, according to Mr. Bruno, automobiles "will start to decline almost as soon as the last shot is fired in World War II. The name of Igor Sikorsky will be as well known as Henry Ford's, for his helicopter will all but replace the horseless carriage as the new means of transportation. Instead of a car in every garage, there will be a helicopter." Why? Well, these marvelous machines can do everything an automobile can do, do it better and besides take you up in the air, far from the gasoline fumes of the crowded highways. Look at this picture of a Sunday afternoon pleasure "drive," as Mr. Bruno paints it: "The family will take off in its heliccpter from the backyard or the roof hangar, climb straight to the level authorized by government regulation, fly on to their destination, and land on earth, on a roof top, or on water-as fancy dictates. Instead of wheels, the craft is mounted on rubber floats-inasmuch as it rises and descends like an elevator anywhere, wheels are not needed. These 'copters will be so safe and wil! cost so little to produce that small models will be made for 'teenage youngsters. These tiny 'copters, when sghool lets out, will fill the skies as the bicycles of our youth filled the pre-war roads." But 'copters aren't the only machiAes that your children and their children will be driving. For, says Mr. Bruno, "the great sport of our youth will be motorless flight. Glider meets will be held all over the country, much like the sailing meets of other years." However, the glider won't be a machine for "pleasure driving" only. It will become an important economic factor in the transportation of the future. "Powerful cargocarrying sky trucks will tow trains of cargo carrying gliders-since all but the bulkiest slow freight will be carried by airplane or glider-towing, cargo-carrying dirigibles. The glider will also become the great transportation medium of commuting." Trains of Gliders. Which means that when you decide to visit Aunt Emma back in Syracuse or Cousin Will out in Oregon, here's how you'll go: "Glider trains, towed by a lead passenger-carrying plane that will fly hundreds of miles, will drop gliders carrying local passengers at airports all along the route. Thus, a trip from New York to Albany, for instance, would be made in a glider attached to the New York-Buffalo sky train. Passengers would board the train at the overhead station of Rockefeller Center. The sky-train, which started from LaGuardia Field, would pick up the Albany glider at Rockefeller Center (and pick it up in flight, too) and continue on toward Buffalo. Over Albany, the conductor-pilot of the Albany glider will cut his craft loose from the train and glide to earth. By the time the lead plane reaches Buffalo, he will have dropped all of his gliders along the route." "But all of these machines can still fall down and kill people-no, sir, I'll stick to good old Mother Earth!" you say. The av.iation of the future will become increasingly safer, Mr. Bruno believes. He writes: "All aircraft will have television weather survey sets, enabling them to see and hear weather conditions along the routes that lie ahead. In this manner, they will be able to fly above or around storm areas and add to the comfort of each flight. "All airplane factories will be entirely underground, air-conditioned and deep enough so that no aerial bomb can ever hurt them. Airports will also go underground and what will appear to be an empty field will suddenly become active when a plane lands on it. A quick taxi to a designed spot, and down will go the underground hangar as the surface sinks under the operation of a large elevator. An international police force, armed with the newest type of air weapon, will have no trouble maintaining order and understanding." Such is Mr. Bruno's preview of "things to come." Do you find them hard to believe? Then reflect upon these final words: "These predictions are a lot more conservative than the flat prediction, in 1900, that before the century was over man would build a machine that would really fly. If anything, most of my friends-men like Igor Sikorsky and C. M. Keys, who read this chapter, for instance-mark the predictions down as being too earthbound, too conservative. And this should tell you that most of you will live to see them all come true I" Aviation Pioneers Made Possible Heroic War Exploits of Today America will never forget the courage and heroism of such World War II heroes as Capt. Colin Kelly Jr., Lieut. Edward H. O'Hare, Gen. Claire Chennault and Gen. James H. Doolittle, who wrote their epics in the air and signed them with their honor. Let us not forget, however, the names of the pioneers who made these war exploits possible-not only tl1e Wright Brothers, Glenn Curtis, Billy 1\'litchell and Admiral Byrd, embroidery does the set in a jiffy -it could even be done in runnin1 stitch.

The idea is that they are resented by the public in times like these. with whose activities we are all familiar, but the many other audacious men whose reputations have been obscured. Here is a partial list of the roll of honor: Calbraith Perry Rodgers, the man who flew across the continent in 1911 and one of the outstanding aviators of prewar America; Jimmy Taylor, the unassuming, little known flying genius who for 20 years was one of our ace test pilots; Lincoln Beachy, a great exhibition pilot who made tests that saved thousands of lives; Vernon Castle, a brilliant wartime aviator who is remembered (if at all) as a dancer; Roscoe Turner, a speed d emon with a useful purpose; Clifford Henderson, the Barnum of aviation, who did more than any aviator except Lindbergh to attract American attention to flying.

Another is planning the purchase of a house an which the stucco has cracked, and in some places fallen. Both of them ask for suggestions on repair. Twenty years or so ago, wide use was made of a stucco in which the principal ingredient was a cementlike material called magnesite. As time has gone on, it has been found that this deteriorated, with a corrosive effect on metal lath. For this reason magnesite is no longer used for stucco, and when it has begun to go bad, the only repair that is practical and permanent is to strip it off and to replace it with portland cement stucco. No surface application can check the corrosion that is going on underneath. Replacement usually includes the providing of new metal lath. With the old stucco taken off, it is sometimes possible to replace it with wood siding over heavy roofing felt. One of my correspondents is considering this, but my choice would be new stucco Princess House Frock on new metal lath over heavy building felt. This, in my opinion, would IKE looking neat, pretty and make the house more air-tight, and efficient? Just button into this there would be greater appeal when princess house frock and presto the time comes to sell. • • • perfection.

Picture shows final step In the converting process - replacement of the coal grates in the furnace. Water Spots on CeiUngs Question: Four years ago we had a new asphalt roof put over a shingled roof. We now discover that after a rainfall water spots of various sizes appear on the ceilings in every room. Could you suggest a remedy? Also, would it ruin the ceiling? Answer: Condensation may be your problem. Thorough ventilation may be the solution; particularly in the attic. If there are no windows in the attic, by all means have them installed. If the ceilings are painted with an oil paint the plaster will not be affected by the dampness on the surface. I am, of course, taking for granted that there is no leakage through the outside walls, around window frames or an outside chimney. Basement Floor Question: Our house now is 13 months old. We painted the basement floor a green color. After the second coat was on it began to turn yellow in large spots. We washed some of the paint off by scrubbing. Can you tell us how we can get a good finish on this floor? Answer: For best results, take off all the paint with a hot solution of three pounds of washing soda to each gallon of water. After removing the paint, rinse well with clear water and allow to dry. You then can finish the floor with a good quality synthetic resin floor paint. Since there always is the possibility of dampness in a cement cellar floor, only this type of paint should be used. Roofing Paper Question: I should like to put roofing paper on the gable roof of my garage. Should I take off the old paper first, or could I put the new paper directly over the old? Is asphalt cement used to fasten the paper? Answer: Yes, remove the old roofing paper.

Dried Foods Compressed To Save Shipping Space Wartime shrinking of food to save shipping space brings us, step by step, closer to the old idea of a capsule meal. The latest wrinkle is compressing already dehydrated foods. Additional space saved by compressing ranges from 30 per cent for dried whole milk to 80 per cent for dried cream of cabbage soup. A dehydrated and compressed potato brick, no bigger than a shoe box, can be crumbled in hot water, and, when mixed, makes mashed potatoes for 100 soldiers. Could He?

Some of us had not ridden a bicycle for years, but the art of balancing on two wheels came back to us easily enough. Now, why don't we fall over? The tires on the bicycle are a semi-circular pattern, you will have noticed, and when you come to think about it they do look pretty precarious. In fact, it is obvious that you are going to hold them up, not they hold you. The truth is that we balance our bicycles with our ears. It is all part of our normal make-up, this balancing act, and we commence putting it into operation as soon as we begin to walk. T)1e ear is divided into three parts: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. Our balancing mechanism is contained in the inner ear. There we have two tiny canals filled with liquid. We might almost call them "fluid levels," for they function in much the same way. When the liquid is moved by the sway of the head it touches tiny hairs which convey to the brain the message that we are overbalancing.

Harry Tru1nan's Ijife Story Proves Again 'Cabin-to-White House' Road Is Still Open President Advanced From County Offices To Head of Nation By Elliott Pine Rcle>•sed b:v Western Newspaper Union. Forty years ago Harry Truman was plowing behind a mule on a Missouri farm. Today he is in the White House, in many ways the most powerful man in tlw world. The new president was born in Lamar, Mo., May 8, 1884. Four yr·:1rs la1r>r his p;nents, John Anderson and Martha Young Truman, returne d to Jackson county, 125 miles north, which was the ancestral hnmp of both. Harry grew up on the 600-acre family farm in Jackson <·mnnv near Grandview . His mother, still alive at 92, remarked reminiscently last fall when he was elected to the vice presidency: "That boy could plow the straightest J ow of corn in the county. He could sow wheat so there wouldn't be a bare spot in the whole field. He was a farmer who could do anything there was to do-just a little bit better than anyone else." During his grade and high school days Harry distinguished himself by his scholarship. He was an omnivorous reader, an earnest student of everything. When he graduated in 1901, he hoped to go to college, but, although his father was known as the "best horse and mule traoer l1l the county," family finances would not permit any more education for the eager youth. He won an appointment to West Pomt, but was rejected for weak eyesight. Harry decided to make his fortune in nearby Kansas City. After a few years at small jobs - drug clerk, bundle wrapper on the Kansas City Star, bank clerk, timekeep· er on a railroad gang - he went back to the family farm at his grc:ndmother's invitation. Went to War. For the next few years working the big farm took all Harry's time. Then in 1917, he volunteered for the army, and soon became a lieutenant of field artillery. While in training camp he organized a canteen for the men, and took care of them in many other ways. Later he rose to a captaincy, and led his company in hard fighting in Saint Mihiel c;.nd the Argonne campaigns. On the boat home Harry was commissioned a major. Soon after returning to Missouri, he married his childhood sweetheart, Elizabeth (Bess) Wallace, gr<:nddaughter of the first mayor of Independence, Mo. The ceremony took place in the Episcopal church, Mrs. Truman's sect. In 1919 Truman decided to go into business, so he entered partnership with a man whom he met in army Jifr, and established a haberdashery store in Kansas City. Harry invested his entire fortune, amounting to about $15,000. At first the business prospered but the sharp recession of 1921 brought disaster, Truman did not go into bankruptcy, but chose to pay off his debts as well as he could. In 1934, when elected to the U . S. senate, he was still meeting old bills. Somewhat accidentally, he got into politics. An army acquaintance who was a nephew of Thomas Pendergast, then Democra tic leader in Kansas City, suggested Harry Truman for some small position. The astute Pendergast, discovering that Truman was well known and liked, had the backing of the American Legion, and was anxious for a new career, appointed him a road supervisor. In return Harry made occa- .---Your 1945 Garden---, SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS Pla11ting Early Crops Calls for Exact Practices Q NE of the most important ele- Tots Will Love This Party Dress won the election by a wide margin.

The young man's integrity and energy were effective and he was placed on the ticket for county judge in Jackson county. Truman won, and discharged his duties well during his two-year term, 1922-24. He was defeated in his try for reelection, however, the only political setback in his career. (The office of county judge in Missouri corresponds to county superintendent in other states.) Truman studied law at night during his term of office, and gained admittance to the bar. Then in 1926 he was elected presiding judge of Jackson county which includes Kansas City, and environs. Handled 60 Million Dollars. "I had charge of the spending of $60,000,000 for highways and public buildings," Truman said later. "Nobody ever found anything wrong with that, and it wasn't because they didn't look, either. We built more miles of paved roads in Jackson county than in any other county in the country, with only two exceptions.'' Truman was repeatedly reelected to this office until 1934. He had sought the nomination for governor in 1930, and for county collector in 1932, but party heads advised him to wait a little longer. Then in 1934 came the big chance. Pendergast put Truman on the ticket for the U. S. senate. This was not such a favor as it might seem, for Pendergast did not expect victory in that year. By a peculiar stroke...of luck, however, the opposition was divided between two strong candidates, and Truman's own popularity sufficed to win him a seat in the august upper house. During his first term Truman remained somewhat obscure, making few speeches, and in general following the lead of Missouri's senior senator, Bennett Clark. With few exceptions, Senator Truman supported the party program. He voted for the original agricultural adjustment act, the Wagner labor act, social security, the Tennessee . valley authority, and the joining of the World court. In his second year he voted for the Florida Ship canal and Passamaquoddy dam project. The only measure he opposed was the President's veto of the bonus payments. In 1938 and '39 he supported preparedness appropriations and lend-lease. He was chairman of a subcommittee that investigated railroad finance, leading to the Transportation Act of 1940. His work in drafting the Civil Aeronautics authority was outstanding for thoroughness and practicality.

Safe combinations lie in the use of neutrals with soft greyed tones; for example, a rich warm dark brown may be used with a soft greyed light blue, or brown with beige, or grey with a soft yellow like winter butter. Then be sure the color combinations are becoming to you. Remember that the larger areas are usually more becoming when soft greyed tones are used. Textures of materials in combinations are important considerations too. Be careful that these textures have qualities in commonsimilarity in weight, in texture or in "feel"-unless it may be desirable to choose a texture entirely for its contrnst value, such as a dull crepe with satin or faille. Be sure the colors fit in with the general scheme that has been previously planned. One of the color principles that might be emphasized for best results in an economical wardrobe is that of keeping our background clothing - suits, coats, basic dresses - within the more somber color path. Then add accent to these with brighter touches of color. • TAKE C'ARE OF I ,~fill Issued by CHICAGO MOTOR QUB "Walk On Left Facing Traffic" is the subject of the Ap.-il school poster in the series "Take Care Of Yourself". ht:ing distributed to more than 38,(X)() clas~roums in Illiunis anrl Indiana by the Chicago Motor Club.

Chinu st11l has the "good old days'' 1f you lil:e that kmd. Son e 80 '< of hH people are farmers e\'Cn yt•t. If an American farmer's hired man earned 50t' a day in 1820 he had to be a guud one. The farmer was not to blame. In order to pay better wages he h:-~d to get better prices for what his hired man procluced, or man::~ge some way for the wut k1:r to produce more. li:\•en then both developments had begun. The plow and the reaper improved farm income and farm wages also. Supply and Demand Using improved machinery one workman could do the work three had done with crude tools, so two out of three farm hands eventually quit the farm. Some of them went to work at transportation, taking lurm products to cities where there were quick markets. Others got jobs in factories making desirable things to sell to the farmers who, by this time, had quite a little money to spend. The two farm workers out of three who left the farm did not quit using farm products. Wherever they worked they bought and consumed farm produce, also made more profitable work for people in transportation. This is a simple outline of the growth of Amel"ican prosperity, and it is a rough sketch of what must take place in China, starting after the war, if China is to prosper. A Unification Plan High-brow students of political economy talk about "social, political and economic unification of China." Tho e are 35-cent words, trying to say that China is all broken up and n~eds to be made one. Nothmg that is broken can be welded again until the pieces are brought close together. China's dismembered parts need to be brought close together; close in time; close in spirit. China already has everything needed to live well; livestock and grain, limber and fiber, coal and oil, Jron and copper. China has supply and demand also-450 m1llion people anxious to earn more and live better. One trouble is, there are 360 million farmers when 12 million with good tools would be enough. There is much other work to do: ore to mine, timber to cut, roads to build. Hidden Treasures Roads will bring the empire's farflung segments near in time. Business dealings will create mutual confidence and make China's remote tribes close in spirit. There is money in the Orient-most of it hidden, but it's there. More, much more will come from other lands as soon as investors learn of the empire's rich resources and great markets. Only fear of robbery and fraud can keep it away. These fears can be removed by a strong central government, able to maintain order and security for investment at home, and able to command the respect of other world powers. Chiang Kai-Shek has promised these things for postwar years and rebel rulers already are learning to trust him and work with !tim. The United States should help him, for China is America's natural ally m the East, for mutual profit in time of peace and mutual protection in time of war. Cabbage Vitamins Cabbage is a vitamin-r ch vege· table, according to the U. S. de· partment of agriculture, but the best leaves rarely reach the table, or even the store or kitchen. The six wrapper leaves-the flaring outside ones that are commonly stripped from the heads before marketing -have been found to produce the greatest quantity of the three principal vitamins found in cabbage, vitamin C and vitamins B-1 and B-2. The vegetable contains approximately a thousand qmes as much vitamin as it does of the other two. It is pointed out that cabbage as a vitamin source has often suffered in comparison with such leafy vegetables of its own family as kale and turn;ps, but the wr::tpper lea\•es which correspond to the large leaves of turnips and kale, produce just as much of all three \'itamins as the Inure cotnn1on g1, ens, ore\ en more. c Make Shoes La$t Want to stretch the m.leage you get from those shoes?

Hog Support Conference Irons Out World Air Problems NEW LEADER: Historic Task Dying even as American military leaders saw an early end to the European war, with the intricate problems of peace lying ahead, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt lett to successor Harry S. Truman one of the most momentous jobs ever confronting a statesman. Oddly enough, Mr. Roosevelt himself entered the office 13 years before under highly critical circumstances, with the nation's business and agriculture in stagnation and its finances on the verge of collapse. Still comparatively new to {l'.e American people, Mr. Roosevelt won their Mr. Roosevelt immediate confidence during the first 100 days of his administration with measures designed to reestablish the tottering economy of the country. Then, Mr. Roosevelt made perhaps his most famous statement of all: "The only thing we have to tear is fear." World Problems est concern would seem to be not the establishment of emergency measures to tide the nation over the reconversion period but rather the development of a program to achieve Mr. Roosevelt's own goal of 60,000,000 jobs. In recently explaining his political philosophy, President Truman said that, like his native state of Missouri, he was a little bit left of center, but that the cooperative effort of all elements of American life was necessary for the shaping of a prosperous economy. Though comparatively unknown before assuming direction of the senate war investigating committee, President Truman soon earned the respect of both his colleagues and the country for his forthright and couragE;ous leadership of the group in constructively criticizing the rearmament program with a view of increasing its over-all efficiency. In this respect, the so-called Truman committee was quick to point out such material shortages as aluminum, rubber, zinc, lead and steel, and also revealed the nature of pressing manpower problems. Staff Chiefs at Helm An artillery captain himself at 33 during the last war, President Truman, like Mr. Roosevelt, is expected to leave the conduct of the war largely to the American chiefs of staff, who have already marshalled the country's great striking power for the knockout of both Germany and Japan. Reeling under the force of U. S. and British power thrusts from the west, and Russian pressure from the east, Germany's days appeared numbered, with Allied military leaders mainly expecting guerrilla warfare after the collapse of integrated Nazi resistance. In conformity with long-rumored Nazi plans for a last surcidal stand in the Alpine fastnesses of southern Germany, the enemy continued to put up his strongest resistance south of the river Main, where the U. S. 7th army's advance was slowed. Fart~er to the east, however, the Russ1ans drove beyond Vienna to threaten the Austrian gateway to Adolf Hitler's last mountain stronghold. Greatest immediate task facing President Truman is the San Francisco peace conference, scheduled to go on despite the death of Mr. Roosevelt, who worked for its successful culmination to achieve his dream of an international cooperative organization to prevent future disastrous wars. Though the groundwork for the San Francisco parley had been laid at the Dumbarton Oaks conferences, at Washington, D. C., new problems had arisen since to command the full resources of American statesmanship. Over and above the proposal of granting Russia three votes on the permanent security council to match Britain's six, there remained the touchy proposition of allowing representation to a Polish government not dominated by any large power and acceptable to all. Along with the San Francisco parley for creating an international peace organization, the new President also was confronted with han- PACIFIC: dling the Bretton Woods financial agreements, designed to establish Tough Nuts postwar economic stability by sup..

WHOLE BLOOD Whole blood, one of the greatest single factors in saving the lives of wounded soldiers, is being flown to Europe under a new system of refrigeration which prolongs the life of this fluid by about one-third. Under the pre~ent system whole blood is suitable for transfusions for a period of about 16 days, but under the new plan it will last for 21 days. Expendable iced containers have been developed to keep the whole blood at the right temperature. Hold Your Own Keep a tight grip on your pocketbook and a sharp eye on your wallet, for purse-snatching and pocket-picking are showing a pronounced popularity among crimes, according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica. The increase in thefts of this character is la id to the tendency of prosperous war-workers to carry large sums of money about with them.

Having run the gamut of WLB approval, the agreement still was subject to OPA consideration, in view of estimates tha t the wage concessions would add about 25 cents a ton to the nation's fuel bill, or $150,000,000 annually. RECONVERSION: Make Preparations With victory in Europe imminent, and with it a partial reconversion from wartime to peacetime output, War Production board took steps to permit industry to obtain new machine tools for manufacture of civilian goods. Biggest major item on WPB's program was the grant of priorities to the automobile industry for 50 million dolla1·s of machine tools and related equipment for civilia n manufacture. To take from three to seven months for making, the orders were placed las t fall without priority rating, then dumped when early !-tcpes of victory faded and the war went into 1945. In permitting the placement of orders for machine tools and related equipment for civilian manufacture, the WPB is developing a plan whereby s uch business would not interfere with the output of vital material needed for prosecution of the war. DISABLED WORKERS Physically impaired workers produce as much as, or possibly a little more than, able-bodied workers, and they are dependable, regular in attenda nce and careful in observance of safety regulations, medical officers report in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Only serious physical defects were considered in selecting impaired workers for the study and the majority have been placed in jobs by matching their defects with the physical demands of the job.

Benefiting from excellent weather conditions, the nation's 1945 winter wheat crop is expected to approximate an all-time 862,515,000 bushels, about 37,000,000 bushels over the previous 1931 top, the U. S. department of agriculture reported. After fall ·moisture was generally sufficient to get the crop off to a good start, good snowfall provided protection during the winter to hold acreage losses to the lowest level in 25 years. In most sections, the ground was in condition to absorb a large percentage of the moisture from the melted snow and rain:;, the USDA reported. With th'e expected abandonment lowest since 1919, indicated yield of 17.4 bushels would be one bushel above last year. As of April 1, estimated stocks of wheat on farms totalled 239,083,000 bushels, third largest since 1927. Stocks approxi- , mated 22 per cent of the 1944 har-,' vest, USDA said.

A R T M E N T DE Having called for greater fall pig production to help relieve the tight meat situation, the government sought to reassure farmers of future returns by announcing a 50 cents increase in the present $12.50 floor or minimum price for all good and choice hogs up to 270 pounds. At the same time, the War Food administration said that neither support nor ceiling prices would be trimmed before September, 1946. Though the government's action on floor prices was not expected to affect current operations because of the relatively small supply of hogs in face of the record demand, it was considered reassuring in the prospect of greatly increasing marketing in the winter, when the pressure on prices might be strong. With private sources estimating that spring pig farrowing was up 12 per cent, the WFA called on farmers to increase the fall crop by 18 per cent. Chiefly because of lower hog production throughout the first part of 1945, total meat output is expected to drop some 10 per cent below last year. Some time after V-Day, when the forces of the occupation are withdrawn and the world once more setties back to peace, the greatest international air transport system which was ever built will largely cease to be . That system, the Air Transport Command of the U. S. army, criss-crosses the western hemisphere from Nome in Alaska to Rk de Janeiro; from Iceland to Panama City. It stretches eastward across the Atlantic, laces Europe and Africa, reaches India and then swings around the globe by way of Australia, through Honolulu to the Pacific coast. Over the ATC's more than a hundred and fifty landing fields, the American ftag now flies. Big planes travel the routes at the rate of 51 million miles a month, which is equal to 70 trips around the world at the equator every 24 hours. From the flagpoles on most of those bases. the Stars and Stripes will be lowered after the world has 1 returned to peace. And strange as I it may seem, the thing that worries the friends o! commercial aviation most is not so much whether Old Glory flies free over those bases, as whether the air over them and the rest of the world is free to the extent that American planes will have access to those and other bases th 1b over e g o e. We have achieved freedom of the 1 seas. Why can't we have freedom of the air too? I carried th~t question right into · the Pentagon building to the office of one of the AAF officers whose job includes worrying over that important question. He is William Mitchell, lieutenant colonel, United States army air force, assistant executive to the assistant secretary of war for air. This was his answer (Colonel Mitchell made it clear that he was' expressing his personal vic·w,; and was not speaking for the war department, but he stated that his opinions were shared by many other members of the air staff) : I "Conflicts over artificial barriers on intercourse by sea," he said, "used to be a fertile breeding ground for wars. But for 200 years vessels of any nation have been able to travel the oceans in peacetime without intern a tiona! supervision, and as a result, this source of international conflict has disappeared ." I If he had stopped there I might have left his office feeling quite reassured. But that was only the begir·,ning. . I I I l Each Country Rule3 The Airways Above It I The analogy between freedom of the sea and freedom of the air, it seems, is an attractive one but it won't hold water. "An airplane does not merely touch the coast of a country," the colonel explained, "it may penetrate into the remotest interior. AcI1 cordingly it has become fairly well established that a nation has jurisdiction over the airspace above its la nd to the same extent that it has I jurisdiction over the land itself. The result is that, in the absence of 1 agreement between countries, no plane may cross a foreign border. The air is not free, it is closed." American ambition doesn't lil'e to be fenced in and already we have mapped a pattern of air routes we'd like to establish when peace comes. Those routes will encircle the globe. Our own civil aeronautics board is in the process of holding hearings to determine which carriers will be 1 certified to fly these routes. But the certificates issued, says Colonel Mitchell, "will be mere scraps of paper unless other countries consent to operations by United States carriers."

Name_______________________ Address--------------------- He wa.• r.he Amgot officer of a s1rn1ll Italian town called Aduno. He was more or le.<~ the American mayor after our in· va.•ion. Amgot, as you know, stood for Allied Military Government Occupied Territory. The authorities decided, shortly after the ha(Jpeniags of this story, thnt the word Amgot lwd an ugly Germanic sound, and they hPnrd that the two syllables of the u;ord, when taken separately, were Turkish words unmentionable in translation.. So tht'y decidPd to call it A.M.G. and forget about the OccU(>ied Territory. That was later, though. When I /mew him, Major }oppolo was Amgot officer of Adana, and he u:us good. There were probably 11ot any really bad meu in Amgot, but there were some stupid o11es (and still are, even though the Turkish embarrassment has been take" care of). You see, the theories about administerirtg occupied territories all wrned out to be just theoril's, and in fact the tiring which determined whether we Americans would be mccessful in thae toughe.•t of all jobs was nothing more or less than the quality of the men who did the administering. That is why 1 think ir is important for you to kllow about Major }oppolo. He wa~ a good man, though weak in certain attractive, human ways, and what he did u.lld what he was not able to do in Adana rep· resented in miniature what America can and camtot do in Europe. Since he hapfJened to bP a good man, his works repre· sented the best of the possibilities. America is the intemutional country. Major ]oppolo was an ltali.an·American going to work in Italy. Our army hrl$ Yugoslavs and Frenchmen and Austriaru a"d Czechs and Norwegians in it, and everywhere our army goes in Europe, a man can turn to the private beside him and say: "Hey, Mac, what's this /urriner .~aying?

The Major said: "Maybe, but you will be the same when you get to Hungary." "Never, not me." The Major looked toward the town and said: "Do you think it's safe now?" Borth said: "Why not?" "Then how do we go?" Borth unfolded a map case deliberately. He put a freckled finger on the celluloid cover and said: "Here, by the Via Barrino as far as the Via of October Twenty-eight, and the Piazza is at the top of the Via of October Twenty-eight." "October Twenty-eight," the Major said, "what is that, October Twenty-eight?" "That's the date of Mussolini's march on Rome, in 1922," Borth said. "It is the day when Mussolini thinks he began to be a big shot." Borth was very good at memory. They started walking. The Major said: "1 have lost all count, so what is today?" "July tenth." "We will call it the Via of July Ten." "So you're renaming the streets already. Next you'll be rahng monuments, Major Joppolo, fir:-:t to an unknown soldier, then to yo:1rself.

Nl TONIGHT, TOMOIROW ALRIGRr ALL-VEGETABLE LAXATIVE ·Jlaliiii/i~ 'EtL . . Invasion had come to the town of Adano. An American corporal ran tautly along the dirty Via Favemi and at the corner he threw himself down. He made certain arrangements with his light machine gun and then turned and beckoned to his friends to come forward. In the Via Calabria, in another part of town, a party of three crept forward like cats. An explosion, possibly of a mortar shell, at some distance to the north but apparently inside the town, caused them to fall fiat with a splash of dust. They waited on their bellies to see what would happen. ·, An entire platoon ducked from grave to grave in the Capucin Cemetery high on the hill overlooking town. The entire platoon was scared. They were out of touch with their unit. They did not know the situation. They were near their objective, which was the rocky crest not far off, but they wanted to find out what was going on in the town before they moved on. All through the town of Adano, Americans were like this. They were not getting much resistance, but it was their first day of invasion, and they were tight in their muscles. But at one of the sulphur loading jetties at the port a Major with a brief case under his arm stepped from the sliding gangway of LCI No. 9488, and he seemed to be wholly calm. "Borth," he said to the sergeant who followed him onto the jetty, "this is like coming home, how often I have dreamed this." And he bent over and touched the palm of his hand to the jetty, then dusted his palm off on his woolen pants. This man was Major Victor Joppolo, who had been named senior civil affatrs officer of the town of Adano, representing Amgot. He was a man of medium height, with the dark skin of his parents, who were Italians from near Florence. He had a mustache. His face was round and his cheeks seemed cheerful but his eyes were intense and serious. He was about thirty-five. The sergeant with him was Leonard Borth, an M.P., who was to be in charge of matters of security in Adano: he was to help weed out the bad Italians and make use of the good ones. Borth had volunteered to be the first to go into the town with the Major. Borth had no fear; he cared about nothing. He was of Hungarian parentage, and he had lived many places-in Budap!"st, where he had taken pre-medical studies, in Rome, where he had been a correspondent for Pester Lloyd, in Vienna, where he had worked in s travel agency, in Marseille, where he had been secretary to a rich exporter, in Boston, where he had be,en a reporter for the Herald, and in San Francisco, where he sold radios. Still he was less than thirty. He was an American citizen and an enlisted man by choice. To him the whole war was a cynical joke, and he considered his job in the war to make people take themselves less seriously. When the Major touched Italian I "I don't trust you men who are so sentbnental." sentimental and have too damn much conscience." "Cut the kidding," the Major said. There was an echo in the way he said it, as if he were a boy having been called wop by others in school. In spite of the gold maple leaf of rank on the collar, there was an echo. At the corner of the third alley running off the Via of October Twenty-eight, the two men came on a dead Italian woman. She had been dressed in black. Her right leg was blown off and the flies for some reason preferred the dark sticky pool of blood and dust to her stump. "Awful," the Major said, for although the blood was not yet dry, nevertheless there was already a beginning of a sweet but vomitous odor. "It's a hell of a note," he said, "that we had to do that to our friends." "Friends," said Borth, "that's a laugh." "It wasn't them, not the ones like her," the Major said. "They weren't our enemies. My mother's mother must have been like her. It wasn't the poor ones like her, it was the bunch up there where we're going, those crooks in the City Hall." "Be careful," Borth said, and his face showed that he was teasing the Major again. "You're going to have your office in the City Hall. Be careful you don't get to be a crook too." "Lay off," the Major said. Borth said: "I don't trust your conscience, sir, I'm appointing myself assistant conscience." "Lay off," the Major said, and there was that echo. Borth said: "Maybe it was a crook's house, how can you tell? Better forget the house and concern yourself with that." He pointed into an alley at some straw and melon seeds and old chicken guts and flies. And Borth added: "No question of guilty or not guilty there, Major. Just something to get clean. You've got some business in that alley, not in that house there." "I know my business, I know what I want to do, I know what it's like to be poor, Borth." Borth was silent. He found the seriousness of this Major J oppolo something hard to penetrate. They came in time to the town's main square, which was called Piazza Progresso. And on that square they saw the building they were looking for. There was a clock tower on the left hand front corner. On top of the tower there was a metal frame which must have been designed to hold a bell. It was baroque and looked very old. But there was no bell. On the side of the clock tower big white letters said: "II Popolo Italiano ha creata col suo sangue l'Impero, lo fecondcra col sua lavoro e lo difendera contra chiunque colle sue armi." The Major pointed and said: "See, Borth, even after our invasion it says: 'The Italian people built the Empire with their blood, will make it fruitful with their work and wiU defend it against anyone with their arms.' " Borth said: "I know you can read Italian. So can I. Don't translate for Borth." The Major said: "I know, but think of how that sounds today." Borth said: "It sounds silly, sure." The Major said: "If they had seen any fruit of their work, they would have fought with their arms. I bet we could teach them to want to defend what they have. I want to do so much here, Borth." Borth said: "That sounds silly too. Remember the alley, clean up the alleyway, sir, it is the alley that you ought to concentrate on." The Major walked across the Piazza up to the big black door of the Palazzo, put his brief case down, took a piece of chalk out of his pocket, and wrote on a panel of the door: "Victor J.oppolo, Major, U.S.A., AMGOT, Town of Adano." Then both men went inside and up some m.arble stairs, looking all around them as they climbed. They took a turn and went through a door marked Podesta. The office on the other side of that door took Victor Joppolo's breath away. In the first place, it was so very big. It must have been seventy feet long and thirty feet wide. The ceiling was high, and the floor was marble. "Say," said Major J oppolo, "this Is okay." "Looks like that office of Mussolini's," Borth said. "Come to think of it, you look quite a lot like Mussolini, sir, except the mustache. Will it be okay with you to be a Mussolini ?'' "Cut tpe kidding," the Major said. "Let's look around." They went out through the white door at the end of the room and walked through several offices, all of which were crowded with desks and files and bookcases. The files had not been emptied or even disturbed. "Good," said Borth, "lists of names, every one registered and all their records. It'll be easy for us here." The Major ·said: "What a difference between my office and these others. It is shameful." All Borth said was: "Your office?" When the two went back into the big office there was an Italian there. He had evidently been hiding in the building. He was a small man, with a shiny linen office coat on, with his collar buttoned but no tie. The small Itali:?-n gave the Fascist salute and with av eager face said in Italian: "Welcome to the Americans! Live Roose,•elt! How glad I am that you ha~ e arrived. For many years I have hated the Fascists." The Major said in Italian: "Who are you?" The little man sai.i: "Zito Giuseppe. I have been well known as anti-Fascist." Major Joppolo said: "What do you do?" Zito said: "I greet the Ameri· cans.'' Borth said in an Italian which was heavily accented: "Idiot, what was your job before the disembarkation?" Zito said: "Zito Giovanni, usher in the Palazzo di Citta, native of Adano." Major Joppolo said: "You were the usher here?" "Every day from eight to eight." "Why did you work for the Fascists if you hated them?" "I have hated them many years, I am well known as anti-Fascist, I have lived under a great suspi· cion." The Major said: "Usher, I love the truth, you will find that out. It you lie to me, you will be in very serious- trouble. Do not lie to me. If you were a Fascist, you were a Fascist. There is no need to lie." Zito said: "One had to eat, one had to earn a living. I have six children." Major Joppolo said: "So you were a Fascist. Now you will have to learn to live in a democracy. You will be my usher." The little Zito was delighted. The Major said: "Do not salute me that way." Zito bowed and said: "The fascist salute, no sir."

The beard got Monty his first job in movies-a Russian impresario. But Walter Connolly-a fat man without a beard-continued to get the parts Monty had his eye on. Monty turned back to the theater for solace. Was on the eve of returning to Broadway to direct another play when Moss Hart rang him, asking him to play the lead role in a play called "Strange People," if I remember correctly. The play turned out to be "The Man Who Came to Dinner." It put the Beard right in the bead of the spotlight. Hollywood didn't see him again until Warners determined to make the picture with Bette Davis. But Bette demanded him and got him. Then 20th Century got Monty for "The Pied Piper," signed him to a long-termer out of which came a unique romantic team-the Gracie Fields - Monty Woolley combination. These two invest an autumn love story with a sprig of spring. "Why not?" shouts the veteran of many bitterly fought artistic battles.

Harry Tru1nan's Ijife Story Proves Again 'Cabin-to-White House' Road Is Still Open President Advanced From County Offices To Head of Nation By Elliott Pine Rcle>•sed b:v Western Newspaper Union. Forty years ago Harry Truman was plowing behind a mule on a Missouri farm. Today he is in the White House, in many ways the most powerful man in tlw world. The new president was born in Lamar, Mo., May 8, 1884. Four yr·:1rs la1r>r his p;nents, John Anderson and Martha Young Truman, returne d to Jackson county, 125 miles north, which was the ancestral hnmp of both. Harry grew up on the 600-acre family farm in Jackson <·mnnv near Grandview . His mother, still alive at 92, remarked reminiscently last fall when he was elected to the vice presidency: "That boy could plow the straightest J ow of corn in the county. He could sow wheat so there wouldn't be a bare spot in the whole field. He was a farmer who could do anything there was to do-just a little bit better than anyone else." During his grade and high school days Harry distinguished himself by his scholarship. He was an omnivorous reader, an earnest student of everything. When he graduated in 1901, he hoped to go to college, but, although his father was known as the "best horse and mule traoer l1l the county," family finances would not permit any more education for the eager youth. He won an appointment to West Pomt, but was rejected for weak eyesight. Harry decided to make his fortune in nearby Kansas City. After a few years at small jobs - drug clerk, bundle wrapper on the Kansas City Star, bank clerk, timekeep· er on a railroad gang - he went back to the family farm at his grc:ndmother's invitation. Went to War. For the next few years working the big farm took all Harry's time. Then in 1917, he volunteered for the army, and soon became a lieutenant of field artillery. While in training camp he organized a canteen for the men, and took care of them in many other ways. Later he rose to a captaincy, and led his company in hard fighting in Saint Mihiel c;.nd the Argonne campaigns. On the boat home Harry was commissioned a major. Soon after returning to Missouri, he married his childhood sweetheart, Elizabeth (Bess) Wallace, gr<:nddaughter of the first mayor of Independence, Mo. The ceremony took place in the Episcopal church, Mrs. Truman's sect. In 1919 Truman decided to go into business, so he entered partnership with a man whom he met in army Jifr, and established a haberdashery store in Kansas City. Harry invested his entire fortune, amounting to about $15,000. At first the business prospered but the sharp recession of 1921 brought disaster, Truman did not go into bankruptcy, but chose to pay off his debts as well as he could. In 1934, when elected to the U . S. senate, he was still meeting old bills. Somewhat accidentally, he got into politics. An army acquaintance who was a nephew of Thomas Pendergast, then Democra tic leader in Kansas City, suggested Harry Truman for some small position. The astute Pendergast, discovering that Truman was well known and liked, had the backing of the American Legion, and was anxious for a new career, appointed him a road supervisor. In return Harry made occa- .---Your 1945 Garden---, SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS Pla11ting Early Crops Calls for Exact Practices Q NE of the most important ele- Tots Will Love This Party Dress won the election by a wide margin.

The young man's integrity and energy were effective and he was placed on the ticket for county judge in Jackson county. Truman won, and discharged his duties well during his two-year term, 1922-24. He was defeated in his try for reelection, however, the only political setback in his career. (The office of county judge in Missouri corresponds to county superintendent in other states.) Truman studied law at night during his term of office, and gained admittance to the bar. Then in 1926 he was elected presiding judge of Jackson county which includes Kansas City, and environs. Handled 60 Million Dollars. "I had charge of the spending of $60,000,000 for highways and public buildings," Truman said later. "Nobody ever found anything wrong with that, and it wasn't because they didn't look, either. We built more miles of paved roads in Jackson county than in any other county in the country, with only two exceptions.'' Truman was repeatedly reelected to this office until 1934. He had sought the nomination for governor in 1930, and for county collector in 1932, but party heads advised him to wait a little longer. Then in 1934 came the big chance. Pendergast put Truman on the ticket for the U. S. senate. This was not such a favor as it might seem, for Pendergast did not expect victory in that year. By a peculiar stroke...of luck, however, the opposition was divided between two strong candidates, and Truman's own popularity sufficed to win him a seat in the august upper house. During his first term Truman remained somewhat obscure, making few speeches, and in general following the lead of Missouri's senior senator, Bennett Clark. With few exceptions, Senator Truman supported the party program. He voted for the original agricultural adjustment act, the Wagner labor act, social security, the Tennessee . valley authority, and the joining of the World court. In his second year he voted for the Florida Ship canal and Passamaquoddy dam project. The only measure he opposed was the President's veto of the bonus payments. In 1938 and '39 he supported preparedness appropriations and lend-lease. He was chairman of a subcommittee that investigated railroad finance, leading to the Transportation Act of 1940. His work in drafting the Civil Aeronautics authority was outstanding for thoroughness and practicality. In 1940, after squeaking through the Democratic nomination battle with only 7,000 votes to spare, he Lad'.''

Safe combinations lie in the use of neutrals with soft greyed tones; for example, a rich warm dark brown may be used with a soft greyed light blue, or brown with beige, or grey with a soft yellow like winter butter. Then be sure the color combinations are becoming to you. Remember that the larger areas are usually more becoming when soft greyed tones are used. Textures of materials in combinations are important considerations too. Be careful that these textures have qualities in commonsimilarity in weight, in texture or in "feel"-unless it may be desirable to choose a texture entirely for its contrnst value, such as a dull crepe with satin or faille. Be sure the colors fit in with the general scheme that has been previously planned. One of the color principles that might be emphasized for best results in an economical wardrobe is that of keeping our background clothing - suits, coats, basic dresses - within the more somber color path. Then add accent to these with brighter touches of color. • TAKE C'ARE OF I ,~fill Issued by CHICAGO MOTOR QUB "Walk On Left Facing Traffic" is the subject of the Ap.-il school poster in the series "Take Care Of Yourself". ht:ing distributed to more than 38,(X)() clas~roums in Illiunis anrl Indiana by the Chicago Motor Club.

BENSON PwiJtHI·-.Hilrtfiltg Calk/( S•nr!f.•.fri.llllitli China's Future Farmers in the United ~totes mctde up 72% of tlte wbole nation's J:.vpul<>tHJII t.. ... ~k 111 1!!20. That \\8S just half-way betwe ·n the invc•ntion <>f the iron plow and the mechanica: reaper for small grain C'lOps. Only 23'lc of our people live :.,11 Jarms now. Chinu st11l has the "good old days'' 1f you lil:e that kmd. Son e 80 '< of hH people are farmers e\'Cn yt•t. If an American farmer's hired man earned 50t' a day in 1820 he had to be a guud one. The farmer was not to blame. In order to pay better wages he h:-~d to get better prices for what his hired man procluced, or man::~ge some way for the wut k1:r to produce more. li:\•en then both developments had begun. The plow and the reaper improved farm income and farm wages also. Supply and Demand Using improved machinery one workman could do the work three had done with crude tools, so two out of three farm hands eventually quit the farm. Some of them went to work at transportation, taking lurm products to cities where there were quick markets. Others got jobs in factories making desirable things to sell to the farmers who, by this time, had quite a little money to spend. The two farm workers out of three who left the farm did not quit using farm products. Wherever they worked they bought and consumed farm produce, also made more profitable work for people in transportation. This is a simple outline of the growth of Amel"ican prosperity, and it is a rough sketch of what must take place in China, starting after the war, if China is to prosper. A Unification Plan High-brow students of political economy talk about "social, political and economic unification of China." Tho e are 35-cent words, trying to say that China is all broken up and n~eds to be made one. Nothmg that is broken can be welded again until the pieces are brought close together. China's dismembered parts need to be brought close together; close in time; close in spirit. China already has everything needed to live well; livestock and grain, limber and fiber, coal and oil, Jron and copper. China has supply and demand also-450 m1llion people anxious to earn more and live better. One trouble is, there are 360 million farmers when 12 million with good tools would be enough. There is much other work to do: ore to mine, timber to cut, roads to build. Hidden Treasures Roads will bring the empire's farflung segments near in time. Business dealings will create mutual confidence and make China's remote tribes close in spirit. There is money in the Orient-most of it hidden, but it's there. More, much more will come from other lands as soon as investors learn of the empire's rich resources and great markets. Only fear of robbery and fraud can keep it away. These fears can be removed by a strong central government, able to maintain order and security for investment at home, and able to command the respect of other world powers. Chiang Kai-Shek has promised these things for postwar years and rebel rulers already are learning to trust him and work with !tim. The United States should help him, for China is America's natural ally m the East, for mutual profit in time of peace and mutual protection in time of war. Cabbage Vitamins Cabbage is a vitamin-r ch vege· table, according to the U. S. de· partment of agriculture, but the best leaves rarely reach the table, or even the store or kitchen. The six wrapper leaves-the flaring outside ones that are commonly stripped from the heads before marketing -have been found to produce the greatest quantity of the three principal vitamins found in cabbage, vitamin C and vitamins B-1 and B-2. The vegetable contains approximately a thousand qmes as much vitamin as it does of the other two. It is pointed out that cabbage as a vitamin source has often suffered in comparison with such leafy vegetables of its own family as kale and turn;ps, but the wr::tpper lea\•es which correspond to the large leaves of turnips and kale, produce just as much of all three \'itamins as the Inure cotnn1on g1, ens, ore\ en more. c Make Shoes La$t Want to stretch the m.leage you get from those shoes? Keep shoes clean and sa\·e le::,ther. Some· times soap and water doer;; the trick -lots of soap but just as little water as possible. Use saddle. castile or a mild soap.

Hog Support Conference Irons Out World Air Problems NEW LEADER: Historic Task Dying even as American military leaders saw an early end to the European war, with the intricate problems of peace lying ahead, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt lett to successor Harry S. Truman one of the most momentous jobs ever confronting a statesman. Oddly enough, Mr. Roosevelt himself entered the office 13 years before under highly critical circumstances, with the nation's business and agriculture in stagnation and its finances on the verge of collapse. Still comparatively new to {l'.e American people, Mr. Roosevelt won their Mr. Roosevelt immediate confidence during the first 100 days of his administration with measures designed to reestablish the tottering economy of the country. Then, Mr. Roosevelt made perhaps his most famous statement of all: "The only thing we have to tear is fear." World Problems est concern would seem to be not the establishment of emergency measures to tide the nation over the reconversion period but rather the development of a program to achieve Mr. Roosevelt's own goal of 60,000,000 jobs. In recently explaining his political philosophy, President Truman said that, like his native state of Missouri, he was a little bit left of center, but that the cooperative effort of all elements of American life was necessary for the shaping of a prosperous economy. Though comparatively unknown before assuming direction of the senate war investigating committee, President Truman soon earned the respect of both his colleagues and the country for his forthright and couragE;ous leadership of the group in constructively criticizing the rearmament program with a view of increasing its over-all efficiency. In this respect, the so-called Truman committee was quick to point out such material shortages as aluminum, rubber, zinc, lead and steel, and also revealed the nature of pressing manpower problems. Staff Chiefs at Helm An artillery captain himself at 33 during the last war, President Truman, like Mr. Roosevelt, is expected to leave the conduct of the war largely to the American chiefs of staff, who have already marshalled the country's great striking power for the knockout of both Germany and Japan. Reeling under the force of U. S. and British power thrusts from the west, and Russian pressure from the east, Germany's days appeared numbered, with Allied military leaders mainly expecting guerrilla warfare after the collapse of integrated Nazi resistance. In conformity with long-rumored Nazi plans for a last surcidal stand in the Alpine fastnesses of southern Germany, the enemy continued to put up his strongest resistance south of the river Main, where the U. S. 7th army's advance was slowed. Fart~er to the east, however, the Russ1ans drove beyond Vienna to threaten the Austrian gateway to Adolf Hitler's last mountain stronghold. Greatest immediate task facing President Truman is the San Francisco peace conference, scheduled to go on despite the death of Mr. Roosevelt, who worked for its successful culmination to achieve his dream of an international cooperative organization to prevent future disastrous wars. Though the groundwork for the San Francisco parley had been laid at the Dumbarton Oaks conferences, at Washington, D. C., new problems had arisen since to command the full resources of American statesmanship. Over and above the proposal of granting Russia three votes on the permanent security council to match Britain's six, there remained the touchy proposition of allowing representation to a Polish government not dominated by any large power and acceptable to all. Along with the San Francisco parley for creating an international peace organization, the new President also was confronted with han- PACIFIC: dling the Bretton Woods financial agreements, designed to establish Tough Nuts postwar economic stability by sup..

WHOLE BLOOD Whole blood, one of the greatest single factors in saving the lives of wounded soldiers, is being flown to Europe under a new system of refrigeration which prolongs the life of this fluid by about one-third. Under the pre~ent system whole blood is suitable for transfusions for a period of about 16 days, but under the new plan it will last for 21 days. Expendable iced containers have been developed to keep the whole blood at the right temperature. Hold Your Own Keep a tight grip on your pocketbook and a sharp eye on your wallet, for purse-snatching and pocket-picking are showing a pronounced popularity among crimes, according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica. The increase in thefts of this character is la id to the tendency of prosperous war-workers to carry large sums of money about with them.

RECONVERSION: Make Preparations With victory in Europe imminent, and with it a partial reconversion from wartime to peacetime output, War Production board took steps to permit industry to obtain new machine tools for manufacture of civilian goods. Biggest major item on WPB's program was the grant of priorities to the automobile industry for 50 million dolla1·s of machine tools and related equipment for civilia n manufacture. To take from three to seven months for making, the orders were placed las t fall without priority rating, then dumped when early !-tcpes of victory faded and the war went into 1945. In permitting the placement of orders for machine tools and related equipment for civilian manufacture, the WPB is developing a plan whereby s uch business would not interfere with the output of vital material needed for prosecution of the war.

Benefiting from excellent weather conditions, the nation's 1945 winter wheat crop is expected to approximate an all-time 862,515,000 bushels, about 37,000,000 bushels over the previous 1931 top, the U. S. department of agriculture reported. After fall ·moisture was generally sufficient to get the crop off to a good start, good snowfall provided protection during the winter to hold acreage losses to the lowest level in 25 years. In most sections, the ground was in condition to absorb a large percentage of the moisture from the melted snow and rain:;, the USDA reported. With th'e expected abandonment lowest since 1919, indicated yield of 17.4 bushels would be one bushel above last year. As of April 1, estimated stocks of wheat on farms totalled 239,083,000 bushels, third largest since 1927. Stocks approxi- , mated 22 per cent of the 1944 har-,' vest, USDA said.

A R T M E N T DE Having called for greater fall pig production to help relieve the tight meat situation, the government sought to reassure farmers of future returns by announcing a 50 cents increase in the present $12.50 floor or minimum price for all good and choice hogs up to 270 pounds. At the same time, the War Food administration said that neither support nor ceiling prices would be trimmed before September, 1946. Though the government's action on floor prices was not expected to affect current operations because of the relatively small supply of hogs in face of the record demand, it was considered reassuring in the prospect of greatly increasing marketing in the winter, when the pressure on prices might be strong. With private sources estimating that spring pig farrowing was up 12 per cent, the WFA called on farmers to increase the fall crop by 18 per cent. Chiefly because of lower hog production throughout the first part of 1945, total meat output is expected to drop some 10 per cent below last year. Some time after V-Day, when the forces of the occupation are withdrawn and the world once more setties back to peace, the greatest international air transport system which was ever built will largely cease to be . That system, the Air Transport Command of the U. S. army, criss-crosses the western hemisphere from Nome in Alaska to Rk de Janeiro; from Iceland to Panama City. It stretches eastward across the Atlantic, laces Europe and Africa, reaches India and then swings around the globe by way of Australia, through Honolulu to the Pacific coast. Over the ATC's more than a hundred and fifty landing fields, the American ftag now flies. Big planes travel the routes at the rate of 51 million miles a month, which is equal to 70 trips around the world at the equator every 24 hours. From the flagpoles on most of those bases. the Stars and Stripes will be lowered after the world has 1 returned to peace. And strange as I it may seem, the thing that worries the friends o! commercial aviation most is not so much whether Old Glory flies free over those bases, as whether the air over them and the rest of the world is free to the extent that American planes will have access to those and other bases th 1b over e g o e. We have achieved freedom of the 1 seas. Why can't we have freedom of the air too? I carried th~t question right into · the Pentagon building to the office of one of the AAF officers whose job includes worrying over that important question. He is William Mitchell, lieutenant colonel, United States army air force, assistant executive to the assistant secretary of war for air. This was his answer (Colonel Mitchell made it clear that he was' expressing his personal vic·w,; and was not speaking for the war department, but he stated that his opinions were shared by many other members of the air staff) : I "Conflicts over artificial barriers on intercourse by sea," he said, "used to be a fertile breeding ground for wars. But for 200 years vessels of any nation have been able to travel the oceans in peacetime without intern a tiona! supervision, and as a result, this source of international conflict has disappeared ." I If he had stopped there I might have left his office feeling quite reassured. But that was only the begir·,ning. . I I I l Each Country Rule3 The Airways Above It I The analogy between freedom of the sea and freedom of the air, it seems, is an attractive one but it won't hold water. "An airplane does not merely touch the coast of a country," the colonel explained, "it may penetrate into the remotest interior. AcI1 cordingly it has become fairly well established that a nation has jurisdiction over the airspace above its la nd to the same extent that it has I jurisdiction over the land itself. The result is that, in the absence of 1 agreement between countries, no plane may cross a foreign border. The air is not free, it is closed." American ambition doesn't lil'e to be fenced in and already we have mapped a pattern of air routes we'd like to establish when peace comes. Those routes will encircle the globe. Our own civil aeronautics board is in the process of holding hearings to determine which carriers will be 1 certified to fly these routes. But the certificates issued, says Colonel Mitchell, "will be mere scraps of paper unless other countries consent to operations by United States carriers."

Amgot, as you know, stood for Allied Military Government Occupied Territory. The authorities decided, shortly after the ha(Jpeniags of this story, thnt the word Amgot lwd an ugly Germanic sound, and they hPnrd that the two syllables of the u;ord, when taken separately, were Turkish words unmentionable in translation.. So tht'y decidPd to call it A.M.G. and forget about the OccU(>ied Territory. That was later, though. When I /mew him, Major }oppolo was Amgot officer of Adana, and he u:us good. There were probably 11ot any really bad meu in Amgot, but there were some stupid o11es (and still are, even though the Turkish embarrassment has been take" care of). You see, the theories about administerirtg occupied territories all wrned out to be just theoril's, and in fact the tiring which determined whether we Americans would be mccessful in thae toughe.•t of all jobs was nothing more or less than the quality of the men who did the administering. That is why 1 think ir is important for you to kllow about Major }oppolo.

The Major said: "Maybe, but you will be the same when you get to Hungary." "Never, not me." The Major looked toward the town and said: "Do you think it's safe now?" Borth said: "Why not?" "Then how do we go?" Borth unfolded a map case deliberately. He put a freckled finger on the celluloid cover and said: "Here, by the Via Barrino as far as the Via of October Twenty-eight, and the Piazza is at the top of the Via of October Twenty-eight." "October Twenty-eight," the Major said, "what is that, October Twenty-eight?" "That's the date of Mussolini's march on Rome, in 1922," Borth said. "It is the day when Mussolini thinks he began to be a big shot." Borth was very good at memory. They started walking. The Major said: "1 have lost all count, so what is today?" "July tenth."

Nl TONIGHT, TOMOIROW ALRIGRr ALL-VEGETABLE LAXATIVE ·Jlaliiii/i~ 'EtL . . Invasion had come to the town of Adano. An American corporal ran tautly along the dirty Via Favemi and at the corner he threw himself down. He made certain arrangements with his light machine gun and then turned and beckoned to his friends to come forward. In the Via Calabria, in another part of town, a party of three crept forward like cats. An explosion, possibly of a mortar shell, at some distance to the north but apparently inside the town, caused them to fall fiat with a splash of dust. They waited on their bellies to see what would happen. ·, An entire platoon ducked from grave to grave in the Capucin Cemetery high on the hill overlooking town. The entire platoon was scared. They were out of touch with their unit. They did not know the situation. They were near their objective, which was the rocky crest not far off, but they wanted to find out what was going on in the town before they moved on. All through the town of Adano, Americans were like this. They were not getting much resistance, but it was their first day of invasion, and they were tight in their muscles. But at one of the sulphur loading jetties at the port a Major with a brief case under his arm stepped from the sliding gangway of LCI No. 9488, and he seemed to be wholly calm. "Borth," he said to the sergeant who followed him onto the jetty, "this is like coming home, how often I have dreamed this." And he bent over and touched the palm of his hand to the jetty, then dusted his palm off on his woolen pants. This man was Major Victor Joppolo, who had been named senior civil affatrs officer of the town of Adano, representing Amgot. He was a man of medium height, with the dark skin of his parents, who were Italians from near Florence. He had a mustache. His face was round and his cheeks seemed cheerful but his eyes were intense and serious. He was about thirty-five. The sergeant with him was Leonard Borth, an M.P., who was to be in charge of matters of security in Adano: he was to help weed out the bad Italians and make use of the good ones. Borth had volunteered to be the first to go into the town with the Major. Borth had no fear; he cared about nothing. He was of Hungarian parentage, and he had lived many places-in Budap!"st, where he had taken pre-medical studies, in Rome, where he had been a correspondent for Pester Lloyd, in Vienna, where he had worked in s travel agency, in Marseille, where he had been secretary to a rich exporter, in Boston, where he had be,en a reporter for the Herald, and in San Francisco, where he sold radios. Still he was less than thirty. He was an American citizen and an enlisted man by choice. To him the whole war was a cynical joke, and he considered his job in the war to make people take themselves less seriously. When the Major touched Italian I "I don't trust you men who are so sentbnental." sentimental and have too damn much conscience." "Cut the kidding," the Major said. There was an echo in the way he said it, as if he were a boy having been called wop by others in school. In spite of the gold maple leaf of rank on the collar, there was an echo. At the corner of the third alley running off the Via of October Twenty-eight, the two men came on a dead Italian woman. She had been dressed in black. Her right leg was blown off and the flies for some reason preferred the dark sticky pool of blood and dust to her stump. "Awful," the Major said, for although the blood was not yet dry, nevertheless there was already a beginning of a sweet but vomitous odor. "It's a hell of a note," he said, "that we had to do that to our friends." "Friends," said Borth, "that's a laugh." "It wasn't them, not the ones like her," the Major said. "They weren't our enemies. My mother's mother must have been like her. It wasn't the poor ones like her, it was the bunch up there where we're going, those crooks in the City Hall." "Be careful," Borth said, and his face showed that he was teasing the Major again. "You're going to have your office in the City Hall. Be careful you don't get to be a crook too." "Lay off," the Major said. Borth said: "I don't trust your conscience, sir, I'm appointing myself assistant conscience." "Lay off," the Major said, and there was that echo. Borth said: "Maybe it was a crook's house, how can you tell? Better forget the house and concern yourself with that." He pointed into an alley at some straw and melon seeds and old chicken guts and flies. And Borth added: "No question of guilty or not guilty there, Major. Just something to get clean. You've got some business in that alley, not in that house there." "I know my business, I know what I want to do, I know what it's like to be poor, Borth." Borth was silent. He found the seriousness of this Major J oppolo something hard to penetrate. They came in time to the town's main square, which was called Piazza Progresso. And on that square they saw the building they were looking for. There was a clock tower on the left hand front corner. On top of the tower there was a metal frame which must have been designed to hold a bell. It was baroque and looked very old. But there was no bell. On the side of the clock tower big white letters said: "II Popolo Italiano ha creata col suo sangue l'Impero, lo fecondcra col sua lavoro e lo difendera contra chiunque colle sue armi." The Major pointed and said: "See, Borth, even after our invasion it says: 'The Italian people built the Empire with their blood, will make it fruitful with their work and wiU defend it against anyone with their arms.' " Borth said: "I know you can read Italian. So can I. Don't translate for Borth." The Major said: "I know, but think of how that sounds today." Borth said: "It sounds silly, sure." The Major said: "If they had seen any fruit of their work, they would have fought with their arms. I bet we could teach them to want to defend what they have. I want to do so much here, Borth." Borth said: "That sounds silly too. Remember the alley, clean up the alleyway, sir, it is the alley that you ought to concentrate on." The Major walked across the Piazza up to the big black door of the Palazzo, put his brief case down, took a piece of chalk out of his pocket, and wrote on a panel of the door: "Victor J.oppolo, Major, U.S.A., AMGOT, Town of Adano." Then both men went inside and up some m.arble stairs, looking all around them as they climbed. They took a turn and went through a door marked Podesta. The office on the other side of that door took Victor Joppolo's breath away. In the first place, it was so very big. It must have been seventy feet long and thirty feet wide. The ceiling was high, and the floor was marble. "Say," said Major J oppolo, "this Is okay." "Looks like that office of Mussolini's," Borth said. "Come to think of it, you look quite a lot like Mussolini, sir, except the mustache. Will it be okay with you to be a Mussolini ?'' "Cut tpe kidding," the Major said. "Let's look around." They went out through the white door at the end of the room and walked through several offices, all of which were crowded with desks and files and bookcases. The files had not been emptied or even disturbed. "Good," said Borth, "lists of names, every one registered and all their records. It'll be easy for us here." The Major ·said: "What a difference between my office and these others. It is shameful." All Borth said was: "Your office?" When the two went back into the big office there was an Italian there. He had evidently been hiding in the building. He was a small man, with a shiny linen office coat on, with his collar buttoned but no tie. The small Itali:?-n gave the Fascist salute and with av eager face said in Italian: "Welcome to the Americans! Live Roose,•elt! How glad I am that you ha~ e arrived. For many years I have hated the Fascists." The Major said in Italian: "Who are you?" The little man sai.i: "Zito Giuseppe. I have been well known as anti-Fascist." Major Joppolo said: "What do you do?" Zito said: "I greet the Ameri· cans.'' Borth said in an Italian which was heavily accented: "Idiot, what was your job before the disembarkation?" Zito said: "Zito Giovanni, usher in the Palazzo di Citta, native of Adano." Major Joppolo said: "You were the usher here?" "Every day from eight to eight." "Why did you work for the Fascists if you hated them?" "I have hated them many years, I am well known as anti-Fascist, I have lived under a great suspi· cion." The Major said: "Usher, I love the truth, you will find that out. It you lie to me, you will be in very serious- trouble. Do not lie to me. If you were a Fascist, you were a Fascist. There is no need to lie." Zito said: "One had to eat, one had to earn a living. I have six children." Major Joppolo said: "So you were a Fascist. Now you will have to learn to live in a democracy. You will be my usher." The little Zito was delighted. The Major said: "Do not salute me that way." Zito bowed and said: "The fascist salute, no sir."

So Monty landed in movietown. from your nearby seed dealer. T•b·c=:r.;r-c:r:- HElp I That Beard Again Now the beard comes into the picture once again. The beard got Monty his first job in movies-a Russian impresario. But Walter Connolly-a fat man without a beard-continued to get the parts Monty had his eye on. Monty turned back to the theater for solace. Was on the eve of returning to Broadway to direct another play when Moss Hart rang him, asking him to play the lead role in a play called "Strange People," if I remember correctly. The play turned out to be "The Man Who Came to Dinner." It put the Beard right in the bead of the spotlight. Hollywood didn't see him again until Warners determined to make the picture with Bette Davis. But Bette demanded him and got him. Then 20th Century got Monty for "The Pied Piper," signed him to a long-termer out of which came a unique romantic team-the Gracie Fields - Monty Woolley combination. These two invest an autumn love story with a sprig of spring. "Why not?" shouts the veteran of many bitterly fought artistic battles.

Entire Nation Mourns Death Of Franklin D. Roosevelt; Vast Tasks Face Truman • FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT JANUARY 30, 1882-APRU.. 12, 1945. THE guns of America's fighting forces sounded ever closer AS the doom of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, Franklin Delano Roosevelt died in Warm Springs, Georgia, where he had been resting for 10 days. Death resulted from a cerebral hemorthage at 4: 35 p. m. on April 12. Mr. Roosevelt was 63. He had been President for 12 years, one month and nine days. The White House was announced as the site of the funeral, with interment at the family estate at Hyde Park, N. Y. Less than four months had elapsed since he had taken his historic oath of office for a fourth term. Only a few weeks before he had returned from the Yalta conference where in company with Marshal Stalin of Russia and Prime Minister Churchill of Great Britain he had labored to built an enduring peace. Fate denied Franklin Roosevelt the chance to enjoy the fruits of victory over the Axis. Yet history seemed destined to enshrine him as one of the immortal American Presidents. And every citiZPn who mourned the untimely passing of the Commander-ipChicf felt that he was a casualty of the war just as every G.f., Marine and Sailor who had fallen in battle. Never before had an American President died in wartime. Abraham Lincoln fell under Assassin Booth's bullet just five days after the surrender of General Lee's army at Appomattox in 1865. Woodrow Wilson lived to see victory over Germany in World War I, but he fought a losing battle for the League of Nations and died early in 1!:'24, a defeated leader. Many historians believe Lincoln's greatne~s might have peen dimmed in the conflicts over reconstruction that followed the War Between the Stales. just as 'Nilson's prestige was lo!'::t in the conflict over t.he !rae,ae that followed World War I. Thus Franklin Roosevelt, dying at the height of his career just as victory was to be achieved over Germany, seemed likely to live in hislory as a great man. As the American people from Ma in Street to Rivers;de Drive mourned the death of Franklin Roosevelt, their prayers went up for his successor, Harry S. Truman. For on the shoulders of this slight, gray, 60-year-old Missourian had been laid a responsibility such as no American President had ever borne. What the consequences of the President's death would be to the United States and the world, time alone would tell. But as Americans recovered from their first shock at the news, they quicldy determined two things. The war must be prosecuted to as speedy and victorious a finish as possible. Lasting peace must be estab• lisbed. HARRY S. TRUMAN 33rd PRESIDENT OF U. S. may be maintained in helping win the peace. He faces the long-range job of guiding the nation to postwar economic prosperity once Nazi Germany and Japan are finally defeated. Known as a plain, modest man who bas not dramatized himself personally, President Truman nevertheless has demonstrated on many occasions that he can be a leader of force and determination. His work as chairman of the Truman committee in the U. S. senate investigating the conduct of the war is cited as an example of this. And his conduct of the Vice Presidency has shown that he can work successfully with political leaders of both parties in getting needed measures And so, regardless of party or of passed and in reconciling oppast political differences, the pE'o. posing points of view. ple have ra!lied behind Mr. Truman.

I I President's Life Was Characterized By Vigorous Action ' Unlike the "log-cabin" presidents, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was not born into poverty. When Franklin arrived at Hyde Park, N. Y., on January 30, 1882, he came into a family that haa possessed wealth for many generations. The Roosevelts had been thrifty ~and-owners in the Hudson valley since the first of the family came over from Holland. On his mother's side also there was a substantial fortune. Among his ancestors were many men who had served the state in various capacities. Young Franklin attended the very fashionable Groton school, where he prepared for Harvard university. After completing the liberal arts course he entered Columbia U. law school, from which he was graduated in 1907. Two years earlier. however, he married his distant cousin, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt. Eleanor was a n iece of Theodore Roosevelt, at that time in the Whte House. After two years of legal practice, Franklin entered polWcs, running on the Democratic ticket for the New York ~tate senate. He unexpectedly defeat· ed a strong Republican candidate. From the beginning of his career he identified himself with reform movements, opposing the poverful Tammany organi· zation in the statehouse. He was re-elected in 1912, by which time he had become a leader of the anti-Tammany faction. Woodrow Wilson appointed Roosevelt assistant secretary of the navy. When World War I broke out Roosevelt proved himself an efficient administrator, handling billions of dollars' worth of contracts for ships and supplies. He served in this post throughout the war. Ran for Vice President. In 1920 the Democratic national convention chose him as running mate for James Cox. While campaigning for the vice presidency Roosevelt made many acquamtances valuable in later political life. Cox being defeated, F.D.R. returned to legal practice. The following year the great tragedy of his life struck himinfantile paralysis. The big, strong young man became a bedridden invalid. For months he lay without ambition, almost without hope. Slowly his powerful will took command, however, and by persistence be partially regained the use of his muscles. It was during his convalescence at Warm Springs, Ga., that 1 he detern'lined to· do what be could to eradicate the scourge that had almost ruined him. The ''March of Dimes" campaign was the result. At the Democratic conventions of 1924 and 1928, he aligned himself with the group supporting Alfred E. Smith, New York's governor. When Smith was nom·nated in 1923, Roosevelt ran for governor of his state and was elected. At the end of his two-year term he was again elected, this time by the greate~t majority ever given to a New York governor. As governor he continued the reform and improvement policies of his predecessor Smith. His achievements attracted nationwide attention. As the depression that began late in 1929 deepened, his ef!orts to control the mounting busine~s failures, unemployment and rlistress in his state revealed his abilities as a vigorous leader in grave times. Swept in as President. When the national convention met in Chicago in 1932 Roosevelt :vas quickly chosen. He was swept mto office by a plurality of seven million votes, carrying 42 states. Both houses went Democratic. Before he could take office a wave of bank failures threatened the whole economic structure. The famous "bank moratorium" order, one of Roosevelt's first official acts, closed all banks until they could be reorganized on a sounder basis, thus preventing disastrous runs. In the spring of 1!.132 came the repeal of the 18th, or prohibition amendment. Then came the National Industrial Recovery Act, or "NRA," under which extensive emergency pow· ers were granted to the President. A series of public works were authorized to combat unemployment, together with huge appropriations for direct relief. . Th_e numerous executive and leg. 1slative acts of this first term were ~pproved in general as necessary m the face of widespread suffer· ing. A phrase from one of the President's speeches, "a new deal." developed into a title for the whole Roosevelt program. In 1936 the convention in Philadelphia nominated Roosevelt by acclamation on the first ballot. He carried 46 states in the elections. This second term majority was so overwhelming that many New Dealers began to call it a "mandate from the people." Dm·ing this second term a great number of measures were passed to increase the economic security of the inllividual, particulat:IY the workers, hrmers and small businessmen.

I will not deluge you with further figures for I cannot produce them with such a flavor of enthusiasm and admixture of persona 1 delight as Dr. Savage does, but I may add that he spent four months in India discovering and planning similar projects in the Punjab, along the Ganges, and in Afghanistan, on this and other trips. Dr. Savage, I might observe, is typical of a kind of government servant of which the world knows very little. He is one of the highly trained experts who prefer public service to financial rewards. These men turn down highly remunerative offers from business organizations. Australia Ashs for Dr. Savage's Help Back in 1940 a cable came from London asking the United States government for Savage's assistance in conjunction with the Burrinjuck dam in Australia. Before the department of the interior replied, Dr. Savage was reminded of what he already knew; namely, that United States officials may not receive emoluments of any kind from foreign governments. Our founding fathers were quite sensitive on that point. ". . . no person," says the Constitution, "holding any office of profit or trust under (the United States) shall, without the consent of Congress, accept any present, emolument, office, or title of any kind whatever, from any king, prince or foreign state." And so Savage, rather than delay the pr·oject while congress decided whether such emolument be permitted, wired the then commissioner of the bureau of reclamation: "Any assistance given to New South Wales will be gratis and I shall not accept any fee or other form of compensation or any reimbursement." As a government servant, Dr. Savage, although he cannot accept titles and awards from princes, kings or foreign commoners, has garnered plenty of honors from American institutions. They include his doctorate in science from the University of Wisconsin and the American Society of Civil Engineers' medal. Also he has that most coveted award, the Gold medal for outs~anding engineering service, a joint · award of the leading organizations of his profession. If culture can be served by damming rivers. and c2pital can be found to pay the bill, they'll be dammed-by Savage.

Says General Arnold in his second report on the army air force: "The RAF paid the AAF a compliment in 1944 by adopting our system of air crew selechon and classification. Our psychological testing procedures were also adopted by the Free French." There are 20 psychological tests administered which have proved valid in predicting a cadet's chance to win his wings and his chance for combat success. "The aviation psychology program has paid off in time, lives and .... money saved,." says General Arnold, "at a total cost of less than $5 per candidate."

Then, still as if it were all a great lark, he said trat he went on down the river to within three miles of the battle lines (perhaps the genial general-host had called off the war for the afternoon). Anyhow, Dr. Savage said, smiling, that he had selected five possible dam sites. The dam in the Yangtze gorge, he told us, will probably be about 750 feet high and there will be 20 tunnels of about 50 feet diameter to divert the river flow. Boulder dam on the Colorado, he told us for comparison, was 730 feet high and had onlv four such tunnels/ There will be 24 generating plants. each generating 110.000 kilowatts of electricity.

WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. • Recently I sat with a group of my colleagues at a table and listened to a shy, elderly man, who might have been a professor of Greek, talk about dams. Just a moment before I had been in the newsroom reading of the terrible destruction which had levelled the cities of Europe. I couldn't help thinking of the paradox of civilization as this quiet man, who is the designing engineer for the greatest dams in the world, Grande Coulee, Boulder, Shasta, the Norris dam in the Tennessee valley and scores of others all over the world, outlined construction projects for Asia. His program is the exact antithesis of what is going on m Europe. John Lucian Savage is chief designing engineer of the bureau of reclamation of the department of the interior. He has just returned from 14 months in the Far East where he has conferred with Generalissimo C' ·'lng Kai-shek of China and with o cials in India and Palestine on construction projects which dwarf the world's greatest efforts in this direction. Dr. Savage discussed these undertakings as if they were some beautiful little wo ks of art which had, perhaps, a utilJcarian value, but wh1ch after all were creations of the imagination, important in themselves. In the course of a half hour or so he outlined projects which would affect the life of literally millions of people for untold generations and might well change the course, not only of their history, but the world's. He went to the Far East representing the U. S. government, loaned by the department of the interior to the state department as a specialist under its cultural program. Much has been said (with eyebrows slightly raised) about Uncle Sam's effort to spread American culture and help import some of that product from other nations. Most people do not realize that cultural matters include 10,500,000-kilowatt-waterpower plants. T "We went lllown the lYangtze) river from Chungking," said Dr. SavagE' as if he were describing a moonlight ride on the Potomac, "by steamboat and launch to within 15 kilometers '.about nine miles) of !chang." (Later it was explained that he had to stop because it happened that a war was going on in that vicinity.) "I had with me all the 1opographical data I could find and I had spotted three possible dam sites from these maps. I stayed with General - - (name omitted for security reasons). I asked him if he had any topograr-hic maps that might be helpful to me. He replied that he had captured an aerial map from the Japanese."

ILL ~Off'e4: /.70MER- /:ycRov ~ CHAPTER XXV On one of these trips, I was told that Newt Kennedy was sick and wanted to see me. His hands were on the outside of the covers-those great hands that had tamed so many wild mules. But now the joints were knobby and the flesh wasted away between them; and his eyes that had twinkled so many times, were sunken and hollow. I sat down beside him, deeply affected. After a while the paid wom.an who was waiting on him left the room, and he and I were alone together. The years slipped away; we were back on adjoining farms. I spoke of the captured weasel, but he had forgotten it. But he hadn't forgotten breaking the mules. He laughed-then had to ·cough-this giant, this strongest man in the neighborhood, this man who got so much fun out of living, this boyhood hero. His voice grew weak, for I stayed too long, living over the old days. Finally the paid woman came in. But Newt still had a message. "We had lots of fun, didn't we?" he wlliSpered, for his voice was about gone. "We did," I said. It was the last time I ever saw him. But I will remember him all my life-Newt Kennedy, the man who taught me to have fun. Sometimes I ask myself, "What are the best ideas I've got out of life?" Sometimes I am saddened by how few they are . . . But, as I look back, I realize that certain ideas have helped me. I am a bit shocked by how few are religious. At least, religious in the accepted sense. I think the first helpful idea I had was how deeply absorbed each person is in himself and how important each person is to himself. I realize this is almost self-evident, but r did not discover it for a long time. And when I did <tiiscover it, it opened up a new world of understanding. It made me expect less of people and it taught me not to be disappointed when they seemed indifferent or neglectful; even cruel. It has helped me in making and keNJing friends, for when friends have wounded me, I have realized it was because they were thinking of themselves and not of me, and I have forgiven them and made allowances. I've learned that the way to understand others is to study myself. For I have found that I'm a little of every person I've ever known. When I am prone to condemn another, I try to stop and say, "Well, if I had been surrounded by the same influences and hedged about by the same conditions, I would have probably done as he did." I suppose it gets down to the ability to "make allowances." And that is what I try to do. But sometimes I find myself flying into a person, or into a situation, as if I hadn't learned anything at all. It's pretty discouraging. I've learned how many people suffer from an inferiority complex and I've learned to deal gently with them. This is especially true on a first meeting. When people are cold, or indifferent, or aloof, or downright inimical, I say to myself, "It's the old inferiority complex at its work. I must make allowances. He may be a pretty good person after all." It's surprising how many are! I've learned that most people, away down inside, often feel dismally alone and inadequate and are haunted by frustration and the conviction that the world is too much ior them. And, realizing this from reading my own secret heart, I try to be a little more gentle and a little more considerate. I've learned that when two persons meet they at once begin the -process of trying to impress each other. Each tries to show how important he himself is. This comes out in a thousand ways: by sly indicatio!ls of how much money he has, or how much he has traveled, or how important his friends are. I watch this in others, with a sort of knowing smile to myself. Yet, pretty soon, I catch myself busy at the old game of trying to impress the other person. My passing years have tau~ht me the folly of trying to change people. People, it seems to me, are born with certain traits and predilections and you can no more change these traits than you can change the length of their fingers. It seems to me that you must either accept a person for what he is, or pass him up entirely. There is no middle ground. I've learned to be tolerant of other people's ideas and beliefs and ways of life. Sometimes, later, to my a stonishment, I've found myself accepting the very beliefs I once thought were crackpot. Then I wonder why other people haven't got gumption enougr. to take them up. I ve learned. vhen I'm discour- • aged and at the bottom of the trough, not to make decisions at night, when fatigue and weariness are heavy upon me. I say to myself, then, "Well, things are pretty black. But I'll get a good night's sleep and see how they are in the morning." Thus, in the morning and with my vitality at its full, I'm able to cope with situations that, the night before, had all but done for me. I do not know exactly when, or how, I got the following idea, but I do know it has helped me in understanding people and' in getting along with them: And that is every person wants to be considered important. Sometimes I think this one of the deepest cravings planted in a human being. Once I got this idea, I could see it working itself out in a thousand ways. I learned to let the other person exert his desire to be considered important and to suppress my own. I made the other person the star of the show and talked about him and his desires and his views, and said little about my own. The effect was almost miraculous, for no one in the world can resist the appeal of being the center of attention. It comes to me easily to make the other person the hero, for his adventures and his views interest me tremendously; my own are an old story. I have learned to be considerate of people, for life has taught me that most people, most of the time, are discouraged and carry on their shoulders a whole bag of troubles I can't see. Along with this I have discovered how deeply people want praise. And how much good it does them. And so I have learned to give praise more readily than I did during my younger years. When I saw somebody, then, who deserved praise, I took it as a matter of course and said nothing; now I am more generous with my approval. But it must be honest approval, or otherwise I would not be deceitful enough to give it. Nor would it be worth receiving. Sometimes it goes straij!ht to my heart to see what wonders a bit of praise will accomplish. Another lesson r learned is that one must not be too sensitive a soul. In my early days I was constantly receiving rebuffs and arrow prickssome imagined, some deliberate. But as the years went by, I discovered that to live successfully, I must learn not to be so easily wounded. I did learn it, and now arrows glance off that used to draw blood. Another is the matter of fear. In my younger days I suffered greatly from fear. Mostly it was fear of the unknown. I could cope with the troubles that were upon me, but was apprehensive about those that might come. One day I came upon a quotation at the bottom of a newspaper column, a "filler." It was from Emerson: "Do the thing you fear to do and the death of fear is certain." r must have seen the quotation before, but if I had it had made no impression on me, Or my mind wasn't ripe for it. Now, in a kind of blinding flash, I realized the truth of those few words. And I began to try to put it into practice. I have not eliminated all fear, but that one simple idea has been of great help. Sometimes I forget all about it . . . usually when things are going well. When I find myself in trouble and harassed by fear and misgivings, I remember my Emerson quotation and am usually able to decide on a course of action instead of worrying about what is going to happen. I think I can say that Emerson's quotation has helped me more than any other precept in all my life. HOLLYWOOD I have come to look upon com· plete happiness as unattainable. Happiness, as I understand it, is a sense of present well-~ing, on which is hung, like a Christmas wreath the belief that some fine bit of good' for· tune lies just ahead. I have come to have less and les! respect for the power in people tha1 makes money. It seems to me this is wholly a selfish trait, and the leas1 admirable of all the major drives in human beings. I realize this take~ in a great deal of territory, for 1 know that a certain amount of mon· ey is necessary, but it seems to me that a life dedicated to money-mak· ing is about as empty a shell as one could crawl into. I have learned to live today and not wait till tomorrow. During my early life, I kept thinking to myself, "Well, I'm not getting much out of today, but soon I'll be in another city, or have more money, or will be selling more manuscripts, or will have a new group of friends, then I'll really get some fun out of life." Written June 11th, 1943. Sometimes we have to look back on a day to know it has been one of satisfaction. But sometimes we know the day is a satisfying one at the very time it is racing by. And today is one of them, for today the third generation of Croys set foot on this land. Carol had arrived from the University of Arizona, at Tucson, where she had been in school, and then-on this day-my dream came true. We walked acroc:s the farm together-just she and l-and I showed her the scenes I knew so well. We came to a great ~ully. "This is where your grandfather and Mr. Shannon and I dug a five-inch ditch with tiling spades. And it must be right along here," I said as we walked on, "that old Dave was buried." We stopped in the calf lot. "It must have been about here that I taught a calf to drink out of a bucket and wrote a 'piece' about it." We went to the "old" house behind the "new" house. "This is the house where I was born, and now I'll show you the very room." Thank God there were no chickens in it. "And here is the very hole in the floor where the scrubbing water ran away to mystify me so. And here's the shelf where Hostetter's Almanac used to hang." It was a strange world to he~. But she had heard me talk of all this a thousand times, and now she seemed to underst~nd what it meant to me; and w~at 1t meant to have her on t~e soll where he~ grandmother picked l;1P buffal~ chiP,S. Then mto the new house where I showed her the room ~here I had pecked off my first stones and the wall where the panel had hung, and w~ere we had packed the telesc.ope ;'nth t~e mouse hole. Then mto Renz~ s room. Tha?k. goodness there 1s no seed c?rn m It today. . At last the morrung was over and dmner was over, and we went out and sat on the porch where my mother had said, "That's where your father and I came driving across the prairies on our honeymoon." Carol looked across the cornlands incredulously. "Was this ever the prairies?" "I'll say it was," I answered in her own vernacular. We went to the barn which I had built word by word. Behind the manger was a horse, and on a peg behind the horse was a saddle. Her eyes were immediately upon them and her eyes danced. And so did her voice. "Oh, Daddy, can I go horseback riding?" It just about floored me. THE END ---==============:::=;::=::========:---::===-- ARTHUR LANDAU (a little guy with big ideas, who once managed Marie Dressler and Jean Harlow) punctures one of our pet notions. He says the outworn idea that movies suffer from a dearth of story material suited to the screen is ridiculous and preposterous. That's going to bring a hail of sharp cracks about Arthur's ears, because he's stepping on tender toes. "I know I'm sticking my neck out," he insists, "but there it is. I've proved my contention by too many personal experiences not to know what I'm talking about." The pulling and hauling that goes on behind scenes when there's a hot property going around is something that the outsider wouldn't believe. Let's let Arthur take us behind the scenes for a bit of case history. He is, incidentally, chief production associate for Ben Bogeaus, and had a finger in three Bogeaus ventures"Dark Waters," "Captain "Kidd," and "There Goes Lona Henry." Few, even insiders, know that it was Landau who channeled "Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo," one of the great stories of this war, to MetroGoldwyn-Mayer. flas the Know-How He was put in contact with Captain (now Major) Ted Lawson by a well-known Hollywood insider who, being a former flier himself, has lots of buddies among airmen. Landau perceived immediately that Lawson had something in the story of the Shangri-la fliers and their bombing of Tokyo. Paramount had first crack at it. Y. Frank Freeman was busy and told Arthur to send the idea through Bill Dozier, story editor. Arthur said "Nothing doing!" and went to see Eddie Mannix at Metro. That's how Paramount lost out. Lawson offered Landau a contract. "You're an army officer," said Arthur. "If your word isn't any good, your signature isn't, either." Lawson said, "How much can you get me?" Landau said he didn't know-maybe $5, maybe $10,000, maybe nothing. High Finance Metro held the script overnight, sent for Landau, and offered him $100,000 for it. Arthur said the author was holding out for $150,000. They compromised for $125,000. Landau was chinning with Eddie Cantor in Eddie's library one eve1 ning and happened to thumb through a volume of stories by Oscar Wilde. One he liked. He bought a copy of the volume and had a transcript made of the story. Harry Rapf met him at Metro and said he was looking for a yarn. Landau strung him along with an enthusiastic buildup and meanwhile ascertained that the American rights were in the public domain. Rap! snapped up the property. Surface Barely Scratched e The American major in charge of affairs in an e~ccupied town in Italy was questioning some of the eitizens of Adano. "What does this town need most?" asked one. he "Much to eat," replied the Italian. Another Italian said: "It needs a bell more than anything. The spirit is more important than the •tomach, and that hell which the Fascists took away from Adano was our spirit." The town got its bell. A BELL FOR ADANO- a best seller for many months- was written hy John Hersey, brilliant war eorrespondent for Time and Life, after covering the Sicilian campaign. The New York Times says: "It's the finest novel about American participation in the Second World War that we have seen." Look for this thrilling and informative story- IN THIS NEWSPAPER BEGINNING NEXT ISSUE "I'll venture," says Arthur, "that there are more good stories in the public domain than Hollywood has ever made. Not every Tom, Dick, or Harry can take these masterpieces and translate them to the screen successfully. Take Conrad, for example. Every effort to transfer his sea stories to the screen has flopped . So we accept the lazy man's explanation and agree that Conrad makes fine reading but can't be screened. Posh! He'll be screened one day by someone who'll know how.

Generally, soil should be spaded or plowed to a depth of 8 to 10 inches. The best method of spading, as generally accepted, is to spade across the garden, throwing out the first row of soil. This provides a trench into which succeeding spadefuls should be thrown, covering well all organic matter in the trench. If dry leaves are used, it is well to sprinkle them thoroughly with commercial fertilizer in the bottom of the trench. This will aid in their decay, giving them the necessary nitrogen. The beginner is inclined to take too big a "bite" of soil at one stroke with the result that it is not broken up properly. Smaller spadefuls will aid in shattering the soil, leaving it in a loose, crumbled mass. Trench Method Proves Beneficial Too much stress cannot be placed upon the use of barnyard or stable manures. Cost of obtaining the manure in towns and cities, however, is expensive and therefore the use of commercial fertilizers is especially advisable. On small, intensively planted gardens, fertilizers may be sown broadcast and thoroughly raked into the upper 3 or 4 inches of soil. It should be well mixed be-fore the seeds are planted. Some gardene rs apply fertilizer two inches to each side of the seed rows and a little deeper than the seed. Apply about one pound per 25 to 30 feet of row, if they are two feet apart. The usual method of composting manure is to place the required quantity in a low, flat pile and turn it once every week or ten days until it has been turned three or four times. After the third or fourth turning the manure can b e allowed to remain in a fiat pile until wanted for spreading on the garden. If the manure is dry, water should be added to prevent burning. Where large quantities of manure are used '. t is possible to save the finer ma~ rial for special sections of the gar· len. Some may be used for cold i1•nes or hot beds.

This is no discredit to the average American. He can't help it if Asia is mystC"Tious. It is only an accident that we know a great deal more about Europe.

It is high time now, however, for every soul in the United States, who loves his happy home and peaceful surroundings, lo Jearn more of the character of our straw-colored allies beyond the Pacific. We owe our national safety to them. If it were not for their native integrity we would be held in a nut-cracker between Germany and Japan at this hour, if we were yet able to fight at all. We Admire Britain Americans are a tender-hearted folk. We sympathize with other peoples and half-way try to understand them, but we don' t usually admire them very much. We felt sorry for the Poles when the Nazi took them in 18 days. Our hearts went out to the Norwegians because they didn't last three weeks. We wept with our British r elatives over Dunkirk, but we did more. We admired the British. Late in 1937 the city of Nanking, China, fell to the J apanese. Far away over the sea strategists thought that was about the end. If China had folded up the next day few people would have blamed her. We Americans would have turned the spjgot in our sympathy tank again and drawn out a generous sprinkling of tears for dear old China, and then tried to forget it. But forgetting it would have been impossible. Must Admire China If China had fallen in 1937, four J years before t he Pearl Harbor raid, any child can guess why we Americans would still be remembering it. But China did not fall. It would not ' be amiss for devout people to give thanks at the table three times a day that China did n ot fall.

Moisten the edge of the pastry and fold the empty half over the applecovered half. Press the edges together with a fork, and prick the top crust to allow steam to escape I in cooking. Bake in a hot oven, 400 to 425 F., about 20 minutes until apples are tender and crust brown. Apple dumplings are nke for a good winter dessert. Peel and core whole apples. Roll the dough in rounds about the size of fruit plates. In the center of each round place the apple. sprinkled with sugar, spice and salt and dotted with fat. Lift the edges of the dough up to the top of the apple and press to gethrr like a bag. Bake in greased muffin tins in a hot oven 30 to 40 min~te~ udil the apple is tender.

See Place for Milkweed Plant in Postwar Era MilkwC'ed seed oil has potential value for use in protective coatings such as exterior paints, enamels And baked finishes, according to a n•port to the American Chemical society. New U1'CS for the~e seeds, until now a waste product in the procluction of milkweed floss, will make puss1ble the introductior. of milkweed cultivation in the permanent !lgricultural economy after the war, it is pointed out. Prior to the war little attention was given to the commerical value of milkwePd floss and the oil from the seeds, and the overall economic and agricultural picture was not favorable for the establishment of any significant milkv.eed industry in this country, the report declares. However, as a rf'sult of the stoppage of kapok imports from the East Indies, the seed hair of milkweed floss has become of great technical impor~ tance, and recent tests have in· dicated its superiority over kapok. Although the plant is perennial and grows wild in many sections of the United StatPs and Canada, a J•.Hge amount is being cultivated to satisfy the great dcmand for the 1\oss. The plant is hardy and requires little attention after the first year of cultivation, and its growth IS valuable in preventing soil erosion. I Rhineland Palatinate - - f I ~"r WA.~~ Flu~.

"In the regular corrida six bulls are killed by three matadors working alternately with their own subordinate team of picadors and banderillcros. When the bull first comes in, he is played by banderillero and matador with capes. Then the mounted picadors enter, the bull charges them, often kills the horse but always gets a wound in the shoulder muscle from the picador's lance. Next four pairs of bandcrillas (barbed wooden shafts) are stud< into tile top of the hull's neck by thE bandrrilleros or. w1th musical accompaniment. by the matadrr himself. Then the n'CJtador takes the bull alone, ]Jiays him with the muleta (red cloth), kills him with a sword." The bullring is a round circus-like construction. whose arena is surrounded by a wooden grandstand. There, bullfighters await their turn, and to that alley, too, assistants in the corrida sometimes jump to safe- ) ty-the matador himself, of course, never leaving the ring until the bull has been killed. Under the grandstand are stables for the bulls and horses and an infirmary where doctors and nurses are always in attendance. The modern Rhineland Palatinate comprises chiefly the German political subdivision of the Saarland, a state which occupies nearly 2,000 square miles betwePn the west bank of the Rhine and the French Alsace-Lorraine border. Jt includes the extremely valu<1ble and now embattled mining and industrial Saar district, which was placed under League of Nations rule for 15 years after the First World war, and theT' returne~ to the Reich by plebiscite. Besides the mines and indu:;1ries, the Palatinate has rich stands of timber and fertile farm land that normally produces considerable grains, tobacco, potatoes, a'ld sugar beets. Orchards and vinevards arc a peacetime feature of tl;e region, w'1ich has been noted as a winegrowing center of Germany. Wines from this district are calkd Palatinate. The word Palatine has been applied also to a fur tippet covering the neck and shoulders. It was introduced during the 17th century by the Princess Palatine, wife of the Duke of Orleans.

Reason for the larger sized tank is that sewage will be forced out from the tank before complete decomposition and clog the dispersal field. and that th~ smaller tank will fill with sludge and have to be cleaned more often. : ~-tlze.A~I: AND FOUR BIG MAGAZINES ALL FIVE FOR ONLY 0 7 Rl"E STORY ............. ~ ..6 Mo. 0 1\fO'IHER ~ HO'\IE LIFE_l Yr. 0 Al\IERIC4.~ JRl.'IT (,J{OWFR ......... - - 1 Yr. 0 AMERIC\'1 POLLTRY JOl'RN \L . ........._ _ } Yr.

Limaburgers with Cheese or Egg Sauce Buttered Noodles Broccoli Raisin Bread Sandwiches Willed Lettuce Salad Whipped Gelatin with Cream Beverage Oatmeal Cookies Limaburgers. (Serves 6) I cup dried lima beans % cup meat drippings 1 small onion, chopped 1 cup finely chopped celery % cup flour 1 cup milk 1 egg, beaten 1~ cups fine bread crumbs 1% cups grated raw carrot 1% teaspoons salt Dash of black J>epper % cup chopped salted peanuts Prepare evening before: Soak beans for several hours in cold water, then drain, cover with boiling water and cook in a covered saucepan for 30 minutes. Drain and rub through sieve. To make 'burgers, mix lima beans with meat drippings in a saucepan, add onion and celery and saute until soft or yellow. Blend in remaining ingredients and stir over direct heat until mixture boils and thickens. Chill thoroughly. Shape into patties, when ready to make, and dip lightly in bread crumbs. Fry in bacon drippings until browned on both sides. To make sauce stir two hard-cooked eggs, chopped, into hot white sauce. Or, use lh cup grated American cheese in white sauce. Quickie Dinner II. Potato Souffle with Sliced Cold Cuts Green Beans Tossed Spring Salad Rye Bread Butter r Cup Cakes with Chocolate Sauce Beverage . Lynn Says: Protective Cooking: Milk, cheese, butter and eggs are perishable. Refrigerate them carefully and cook slowly to get the most out of your food. Cut carrots and other long vegetables lengthwise. Their cells are long and less of their nourishment will disappear if prepared this way. Add dressing to fruits and vegetables as 300n as they are cut or cubed. The dressing coats the cut surfaces and helps prevent vitamin destruction. Shell peas or beans just before cooking to prevent air from destroying the vitamin C. Use as little water as possible when cooking leafy vegetables. After washing vegetables such as spinach and cabbage, let water cling to the leaves and do not add any more when cooking. Hands off- when caring for vegetables. Bruising causes rapid vitamin loss.

Send your order to: By ELMO SCOTT WATSON Released by Western New <Paper Union, A LANKY horseman rode steadily through the Virginia hills under a bleak March sky, his lean face brightening as he recognized familiar landmarks. He was muscular and vigorous dospite his 66 years, with tanned skin, clear hazel eyes, a kindly expression and abundant gray hair that still showed traces of its original brick-red. The rider urged his sorrel faster up the slopes of a treecrowned hill that towered over the rolling country side. Spurring to the top, he threw the reins to a colored groom, dismounted lightly and greeted a family group waiting for him near a stately house. Thomas Jefferson had come home to Monticello. The year was 1809. But a few days before he had bid farewell to the White House, wished his friend James Madison Godspeed in the Presidency and rode out of Washington as a private citizen. Since his birth, April 13, 1743, Jefferson had traveled an eventful route. He had experienced some defeats and many triumphs. Virtually every high office within the gift of his feHow citizens had been his. He had been state legislator and congressman; governor and minister; secretary of state, vice president and President for two terms. He had doubled the territory of the United States and built a powerful political party. His ideals of liberty were engraved in the law of the land . And now in the fullness of his honors he was to spend the next 17 years in serene retirement as the "Sage of Monticello," busy amidst his farms. A Famous Epitaph. Visitors to Monticello always pause to study the epitaph chiseled on the gray granite shaft over Jefferson's grave. Written by the great statesman himsell before his death on July 4, 1826, it reads: "Here was buried Thomas Jefferson, Author of the Declaration of Independ~ncc; of the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom: and Father of the University of Virginia ." - Most Americans are familiar with these achievements of the manysided Jefferson. Few citizens, perhaps, are aware of another of his contributions-his work for the development of modern, scientific farming . So, on the birthday of this great farmer-statesman, it is appropriate to tell the story of his encouragement of agriculture. For farming was one of the consuming interests of Jefferson's life. His roots were bedded in the earth. In many ways he was generations ahead of his time. He clearly saw the future possibilities of American agriculture and strove to make them a reality. Jefferson inherited an estate of 1,900 acres. He added constantly ·to that farm and by the time he married 21-year-old Mart:1a Wayles Skelton on New Year's Day, 1772, his holdings exceeded 10,000 acres. A year later, the death of his fatherin-law brought the family an additional 40,000 acres situated in western Virgima. As a practical farmer, Jefferson was constantly on the alert for new ideas. He made Monticello into a progressive experimental farm where new machinery, new methods, imrroved stock breeding, new crops and tests in restoring soil fertility were tried out. Over a period of years he grew as many as 32 different vegetables on his farm. And he attempted to adapt and domPsticate acres of plants, shrubs and trPes from distant countries. His Land Impoverished. The "Sage of Monticello" had much to contend with. During his absence on public business, overseers who farmed the land ravaged it, he said, "to a degree of degradation far beyond what I had expectE-d." No attempts at diversification had been made. Unlike the farmer of today who can get advice trom hi~ county agents, agricultural college agronomists or experiment stations on whether his soil is deficient in nitrogen, phosphorus and potash and then obtain the correct analysis of mixed fertilizer, Jefferson had to depend on talks with his neighbors and his readmg of farm papers and books published in England. So he corresponded frequently with George Washington, James Madison, John Adams, the Marquis SEWING CIRCLE PATTERN DEPT. 530 Sout.h wens St. Cblcago Enclose 25 cents In coins for each pattern desired.

An architect who learned the art by independent study, he drew blueprints for many buildings, many of which still stand as a monument to the many-sided genius of their creator. In addition to Monticello, the best \ examples of his architecture are the capitol at Richmond and the University of Virginia.

Entire Nation Mourns Death Of Franklin D. Roosevelt; Vast Tasks Face Truman • FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT JANUARY 30, 1882-APRU.. 12, 1945. THE guns of America's fighting forces sounded ever closer AS the doom of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, Franklin Delano Roosevelt died in Warm Springs, Georgia, where he had been resting for 10 days. Death resulted from a cerebral hemorthage at 4: 35 p. m. on April 12. Mr. Roosevelt was 63. He had been President for 12 years, one month and nine days. The White House was announced as the site of the funeral, with interment at the family estate at Hyde Park, N. Y. Less than four months had elapsed since he had taken his historic oath of office for a fourth term. Only a few weeks before he had returned from the Yalta conference where in company with Marshal Stalin of Russia and Prime Minister Churchill of Great Britain he had labored to built an enduring peace. Fate denied Franklin Roosevelt the chance to enjoy the fruits of victory over the Axis. Yet history seemed destined to enshrine him as one of the immortal American Presidents. And every citiZPn who mourned the untimely passing of the Commander-ipChicf felt that he was a casualty of the war just as every G.f., Marine and Sailor who had fallen in battle. Never before had an American President died in wartime. Abraham Lincoln fell under Assassin Booth's bullet just five days after the surrender of General Lee's army at Appomattox in 1865. Woodrow Wilson lived to see victory over Germany in World War I, but he fought a losing battle for the League of Nations and died early in 1!:'24, a defeated leader. Many historians believe Lincoln's greatne~s might have peen dimmed in the conflicts over reconstruction that followed the War Between the Stales. just as 'Nilson's prestige was lo!'::t in the conflict over t.he !rae,ae that followed World War I. Thus Franklin Roosevelt, dying at the height of his career just as victory was to be achieved over Germany, seemed likely to live in hislory as a great man. As the American people from Ma in Street to Rivers;de Drive mourned the death of Franklin Roosevelt, their prayers went up for his successor, Harry S. Truman. For on the shoulders of this slight, gray, 60-year-old Missourian had been laid a responsibility such as no American President had ever borne. What the consequences of the President's death would be to the United States and the world, time alone would tell. But as Americans recovered from their first shock at the news, they quicldy determined two things. The war must be prosecuted to as speedy and victorious a finish as possible. Lasting peace must be estab• lisbed. HARRY S. TRUMAN 33rd PRESIDENT OF U. S. may be maintained in helping win the peace. He faces the long-range job of guiding the nation to postwar economic prosperity once Nazi Germany and Japan are finally defeated. Known as a plain, modest man who bas not dramatized himself personally, President Truman nevertheless has demonstrated on many occasions that he can be a leader of force and determination. His work as chairman of the Truman committee in the U. S. senate investigating the conduct of the war is cited as an example of this. And his conduct of the Vice Presidency has shown that he can work successfully with political leaders of both parties in getting needed measures And so, regardless of party or of passed and in reconciling oppast political differences, the pE'o. posing points of view. ple have ra!lied behind Mr. Truman.

I I President's Life Was Characterized By Vigorous Action ' Unlike the "log-cabin" presidents, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was not born into poverty. When Franklin arrived at Hyde Park, N. Y., on January 30, 1882, he came into a family that haa possessed wealth for many generations. The Roosevelts had been thrifty ~and-owners in the Hudson valley since the first of the family came over from Holland. On his mother's side also there was a substantial fortune. Among his ancestors were many men who had served the state in various capacities. Young Franklin attended the very fashionable Groton school, where he prepared for Harvard university. After completing the liberal arts course he entered Columbia U. law school, from which he was graduated in 1907. Two years earlier. however, he married his distant cousin, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt. Eleanor was a n iece of Theodore Roosevelt, at that time in the Whte House. After two years of legal practice, Franklin entered polWcs, running on the Democratic ticket for the New York ~tate senate. He unexpectedly defeat· ed a strong Republican candidate. From the beginning of his career he identified himself with reform movements, opposing the poverful Tammany organi· zation in the statehouse. He was re-elected in 1912, by which time he had become a leader of the anti-Tammany faction. Woodrow Wilson appointed Roosevelt assistant secretary of the navy. When World War I broke out Roosevelt proved himself an efficient administrator, handling billions of dollars' worth of contracts for ships and supplies. He served in this post throughout the war. Ran for Vice President. In 1920 the Democratic national convention chose him as running mate for James Cox. While campaigning for the vice presidency Roosevelt made many acquamtances valuable in later political life. Cox being defeated, F.D.R. returned to legal practice. The following year the great tragedy of his life struck himinfantile paralysis. The big, strong young man became a bedridden invalid. For months he lay without ambition, almost without hope. Slowly his powerful will took command, however, and by persistence be partially regained the use of his muscles. It was during his convalescence at Warm Springs, Ga., that 1 he detern'lined to· do what be could to eradicate the scourge that had almost ruined him. The ''March of Dimes" campaign was the result. At the Democratic conventions of 1924 and 1928, he aligned himself with the group supporting Alfred E. Smith, New York's governor. When Smith was nom·nated in 1923, Roosevelt ran for governor of his state and was elected. At the end of his two-year term he was again elected, this time by the greate~t majority ever given to a New York governor. As governor he continued the reform and improvement policies of his predecessor Smith. His achievements attracted nationwide attention. As the depression that began late in 1929 deepened, his ef!orts to control the mounting busine~s failures, unemployment and rlistress in his state revealed his abilities as a vigorous leader in grave times. Swept in as President. When the national convention met in Chicago in 1932 Roosevelt :vas quickly chosen. He was swept mto office by a plurality of seven million votes, carrying 42 states. Both houses went Democratic. Before he could take office a wave of bank failures threatened the whole economic structure. The famous "bank moratorium" order, one of Roosevelt's first official acts, closed all banks until they could be reorganized on a sounder basis, thus preventing disastrous runs. In the spring of 1!.132 came the repeal of the 18th, or prohibition amendment. Then came the National Industrial Recovery Act, or "NRA," under which extensive emergency pow· ers were granted to the President. A series of public works were authorized to combat unemployment, together with huge appropriations for direct relief. . Th_e numerous executive and leg. 1slative acts of this first term were ~pproved in general as necessary m the face of widespread suffer· ing. A phrase from one of the President's speeches, "a new deal." developed into a title for the whole Roosevelt program. In 1936 the convention in Philadelphia nominated Roosevelt by acclamation on the first ballot. He carried 46 states in the elections. This second term majority was so overwhelming that many New Dealers began to call it a "mandate from the people." Dm·ing this second term a great number of measures were passed to increase the economic security of the inllividual, particulat:IY the workers, hrmers and small businessmen. SNAPPY FACTS I~ :0-Jri American Engineer Plans Great Dams for Asia ByBAUKHAGE Annly.~l storage that will irrigate a hundred million acres and make it possible to double the present production of rice. I will not deluge you with further figures for I cannot produce them with such a flavor of enthusiasm and admixture of persona 1 delight as Dr. Savage does, but I may add that he spent four months in India discovering and planning similar projects in the Punjab, along the Ganges, and in Afghanistan, on this and other trips. Dr. Savage, I might observe, is typical of a kind of government servant of which the world knows very little. He is one of the highly trained experts who prefer public service to financial rewards. These men turn down highly remunerative offers from business organizations. Australia Ashs for Dr. Savage's Help Back in 1940 a cable came from London asking the United States government for Savage's assistance in conjunction with the Burrinjuck dam in Australia. Before the department of the interior replied, Dr. Savage was reminded of what he already knew; namely, that United States officials may not receive emoluments of any kind from foreign governments. Our founding fathers were quite sensitive on that point. ". . . no person," says the Constitution, "holding any office of profit or trust under (the United States) shall, without the consent of Congress, accept any present, emolument, office, or title of any kind whatever, from any king, prince or foreign state." And so Savage, rather than delay the pr·oject while congress decided whether such emolument be permitted, wired the then commissioner of the bureau of reclamation: "Any assistance given to New South Wales will be gratis and I shall not accept any fee or other form of compensation or any reimbursement." As a government servant, Dr. Savage, although he cannot accept titles and awards from princes, kings or foreign commoners, has garnered plenty of honors from American institutions. They include his doctorate in science from the University of Wisconsin and the American Society of Civil Engineers' medal. Also he has that most coveted award, the Gold medal for outs~anding engineering service, a joint · award of the leading organizations of his profession. If culture can be served by damming rivers. and c2pital can be found to pay the bill, they'll be dammed-by Savage.

Says General Arnold in his second report on the army air force: "The RAF paid the AAF a compliment in 1944 by adopting our system of air crew selechon and classification. Our psychological testing procedures were also adopted by the Free French." There are 20 psychological tests administered which have proved valid in predicting a cadet's chance to win his wings and his chance for combat success. "The aviation psychology program has paid off in time, lives and .... money saved,." says General Arnold, "at a total cost of less than $5 per candidate." Studies Map, Selects Five Sites for Dam& The map proved to be excellent and one could almost see the engin('er's mouth water as he examined it, picking out sights simply crying to be oommed. Then, still as if it were all a great lark, he said trat he went on down the river to within three miles of the battle lines (perhaps the genial general-host had called off the war for the afternoon). Anyhow, Dr. Savage said, smiling, that he had selected five possible dam sites. The dam in the Yangtze gorge, he told us, will probably be about 750 feet high and there will be 20 tunnels of about 50 feet diameter to divert the river flow. Boulder dam on the Colorado, he told us for comparison, was 730 feet high and had onlv four such tunnels/ There will be 24 generating plants. each generating 110.000 kilowatts of electricity.

WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. • Recently I sat with a group of my colleagues at a table and listened to a shy, elderly man, who might have been a professor of Greek, talk about dams. Just a moment before I had been in the newsroom reading of the terrible destruction which had levelled the cities of Europe. I couldn't help thinking of the paradox of civilization as this quiet man, who is the designing engineer for the greatest dams in the world, Grande Coulee, Boulder, Shasta, the Norris dam in the Tennessee valley and scores of others all over the world, outlined construction projects for Asia. His program is the exact antithesis of what is going on m Europe. John Lucian Savage is chief designing engineer of the bureau of reclamation of the department of the interior. He has just returned from 14 months in the Far East where he has conferred with Generalissimo C' ·'lng Kai-shek of China and with o cials in India and Palestine on construction projects which dwarf the world's greatest efforts in this direction. Dr. Savage discussed these undertakings as if they were some beautiful little wo ks of art which had, perhaps, a utilJcarian value, but wh1ch after all were creations of the imagination, important in themselves. In the course of a half hour or so he outlined projects which would affect the life of literally millions of people for untold generations and might well change the course, not only of their history, but the world's. He went to the Far East representing the U. S. government, loaned by the department of the interior to the state department as a specialist under its cultural program. Much has been said (with eyebrows slightly raised) about Uncle Sam's effort to spread American culture and help import some of that product from other nations. Most people do not realize that cultural matters include 10,500,000-kilowatt-waterpower plants. T "We went lllown the lYangtze) river from Chungking," said Dr. SavagE' as if he were describing a moonlight ride on the Potomac, "by steamboat and launch to within 15 kilometers '.about nine miles) of !chang." (Later it was explained that he had to stop because it happened that a war was going on in that vicinity.) "I had with me all the 1opographical data I could find and I had spotted three possible dam sites from these maps. I stayed with General - - (name omitted for security reasons). I asked him if he had any topograr-hic maps that might be helpful to me. He replied that he had captured an aerial map from the Japanese."

ILL ~Off'e4: /.70MER- /:ycRov ~ CHAPTER XXV On one of these trips, I was told that Newt Kennedy was sick and wanted to see me. His hands were on the outside of the covers-those great hands that had tamed so many wild mules. But now the joints were knobby and the flesh wasted away between them; and his eyes that had twinkled so many times, were sunken and hollow. I sat down beside him, deeply affected. After a while the paid wom.an who was waiting on him left the room, and he and I were alone together. The years slipped away; we were back on adjoining farms. I spoke of the captured weasel, but he had forgotten it. But he hadn't forgotten breaking the mules. He laughed-then had to ·cough-this giant, this strongest man in the neighborhood, this man who got so much fun out of living, this boyhood hero. His voice grew weak, for I stayed too long, living over the old days. Finally the paid woman came in. But Newt still had a message. "We had lots of fun, didn't we?" he wlliSpered, for his voice was about gone. "We did," I said. It was the last time I ever saw him. But I will remember him all my life-Newt Kennedy, the man who taught me to have fun. Sometimes I ask myself, "What are the best ideas I've got out of life?" Sometimes I am saddened by how few they are . . . But, as I look back, I realize that certain ideas have helped me. I am a bit shocked by how few are religious. At least, religious in the accepted sense. I think the first helpful idea I had was how deeply absorbed each person is in himself and how important each person is to himself. I realize this is almost self-evident, but r did not discover it for a long time. And when I did <tiiscover it, it opened up a new world of understanding. It made me expect less of people and it taught me not to be disappointed when they seemed indifferent or neglectful; even cruel. It has helped me in making and keNJing friends, for when friends have wounded me, I have realized it was because they were thinking of themselves and not of me, and I have forgiven them and made allowances. I've learned that the way to understand others is to study myself. For I have found that I'm a little of every person I've ever known. When I am prone to condemn another, I try to stop and say, "Well, if I had been surrounded by the same influences and hedged about by the same conditions, I would have probably done as he did." I suppose it gets down to the ability to "make allowances." And that is what I try to do. But sometimes I find myself flying into a person, or into a situation, as if I hadn't learned anything at all. It's pretty discouraging. I've learned how many people suffer from an inferiority complex and I've learned to deal gently with them. This is especially true on a first meeting. When people are cold, or indifferent, or aloof, or downright inimical, I say to myself, "It's the old inferiority complex at its work. I must make allowances. He may be a pretty good person after all." It's surprising how many are! I've learned that most people, away down inside, often feel dismally alone and inadequate and are haunted by frustration and the conviction that the world is too much ior them. And, realizing this from reading my own secret heart, I try to be a little more gentle and a little more considerate. I've learned that when two persons meet they at once begin the -process of trying to impress each other. Each tries to show how important he himself is. This comes out in a thousand ways: by sly indicatio!ls of how much money he has, or how much he has traveled, or how important his friends are. I watch this in others, with a sort of knowing smile to myself. Yet, pretty soon, I catch myself busy at the old game of trying to impress the other person. My passing years have tau~ht me the folly of trying to change people. People, it seems to me, are born with certain traits and predilections and you can no more change these traits than you can change the length of their fingers. It seems to me that you must either accept a person for what he is, or pass him up entirely. There is no middle ground. I've learned to be tolerant of other people's ideas and beliefs and ways of life. Sometimes, later, to my a stonishment, I've found myself accepting the very beliefs I once thought were crackpot. Then I wonder why other people haven't got gumption enougr. to take them up. I ve learned. vhen I'm discour- • aged and at the bottom of the trough, not to make decisions at night, when fatigue and weariness are heavy upon me. I say to myself, then, "Well, things are pretty black. But I'll get a good night's sleep and see how they are in the morning." Thus, in the morning and with my vitality at its full, I'm able to cope with situations that, the night before, had all but done for me. I do not know exactly when, or how, I got the following idea, but I do know it has helped me in understanding people and' in getting along with them: And that is every person wants to be considered important. Sometimes I think this one of the deepest cravings planted in a human being. Once I got this idea, I could see it working itself out in a thousand ways. I learned to let the other person exert his desire to be considered important and to suppress my own. I made the other person the star of the show and talked about him and his desires and his views, and said little about my own. The effect was almost miraculous, for no one in the world can resist the appeal of being the center of attention. It comes to me easily to make the other person the hero, for his adventures and his views interest me tremendously; my own are an old story. I have learned to be considerate of people, for life has taught me that most people, most of the time, are discouraged and carry on their shoulders a whole bag of troubles I can't see. Along with this I have discovered how deeply people want praise. And how much good it does them. And so I have learned to give praise more readily than I did during my younger years. When I saw somebody, then, who deserved praise, I took it as a matter of course and said nothing; now I am more generous with my approval. But it must be honest approval, or otherwise I would not be deceitful enough to give it. Nor would it be worth receiving. Sometimes it goes straij!ht to my heart to see what wonders a bit of praise will accomplish. Another lesson r learned is that one must not be too sensitive a soul. In my early days I was constantly receiving rebuffs and arrow prickssome imagined, some deliberate. But as the years went by, I discovered that to live successfully, I must learn not to be so easily wounded. I did learn it, and now arrows glance off that used to draw blood. Another is the matter of fear. In my younger days I suffered greatly from fear. Mostly it was fear of the unknown. I could cope with the troubles that were upon me, but was apprehensive about those that might come. One day I came upon a quotation at the bottom of a newspaper column, a "filler." It was from Emerson: "Do the thing you fear to do and the death of fear is certain." r must have seen the quotation before, but if I had it had made no impression on me, Or my mind wasn't ripe for it. Now, in a kind of blinding flash, I realized the truth of those few words. And I began to try to put it into practice. I have not eliminated all fear, but that one simple idea has been of great help. Sometimes I forget all about it . . . usually when things are going well. When I find myself in trouble and harassed by fear and misgivings, I remember my Emerson quotation and am usually able to decide on a course of action instead of worrying about what is going to happen. I think I can say that Emerson's quotation has helped me more than any other precept in all my life. HOLLYWOOD I have come to look upon com· plete happiness as unattainable. Happiness, as I understand it, is a sense of present well-~ing, on which is hung, like a Christmas wreath the belief that some fine bit of good' for· tune lies just ahead. I have come to have less and les! respect for the power in people tha1 makes money. It seems to me this is wholly a selfish trait, and the leas1 admirable of all the major drives in human beings. I realize this take~ in a great deal of territory, for 1 know that a certain amount of mon· ey is necessary, but it seems to me that a life dedicated to money-mak· ing is about as empty a shell as one could crawl into. I have learned to live today and not wait till tomorrow. During my early life, I kept thinking to myself, "Well, I'm not getting much out of today, but soon I'll be in another city, or have more money, or will be selling more manuscripts, or will have a new group of friends, then I'll really get some fun out of life." Written June 11th, 1943. Sometimes we have to look back on a day to know it has been one of satisfaction. But sometimes we know the day is a satisfying one at the very time it is racing by.

"This is where your grandfather and Mr. Shannon and I dug a five-inch ditch with tiling spades. And it must be right along here," I said as we walked on, "that old Dave was buried." We stopped in the calf lot. "It must have been about here that I taught a calf to drink out of a bucket and wrote a 'piece' about it." We went to the "old" house behind the "new" house. "This is the house where I was born, and now I'll show you the very room." Thank God there were no chickens in it. "And here is the very hole in the floor where the scrubbing water ran away to mystify me so. And here's the shelf where Hostetter's Almanac used to hang." It was a strange world to he~. But she had heard me talk of all this a thousand times, and now she seemed to underst~nd what it meant to me; and w~at 1t meant to have her on t~e soll where he~ grandmother picked l;1P buffal~ chiP,S. Then mto the new house where I showed her the room ~here I had pecked off my first stones and the wall where the panel had hung, and w~ere we had packed the telesc.ope ;'nth t~e mouse hole. Then mto Renz~ s room. Tha?k. goodness there 1s no seed c?rn m It today. . At last the morrung was over and dmner was over, and we went out and sat on the porch where my mother had said, "That's where your father and I came driving across the prairies on our honeymoon." Carol looked across the cornlands incredulously. "Was this ever the prairies?" "I'll say it was," I answered in her own vernacular. We went to the barn which I had built word by word. Behind the manger was a horse, and on a peg behind the horse was a saddle. Her eyes were immediately upon them and her eyes danced. And so did her voice. "Oh, Daddy, can I go horseback riding?" It just about floored me. THE END ---==============:::=;::=::========:---::===-- ARTHUR LANDAU (a little guy with big ideas, who once managed Marie Dressler and Jean Harlow) punctures one of our pet notions. He says the outworn idea that movies suffer from a dearth of story material suited to the screen is ridiculous and preposterous. That's going to bring a hail of sharp cracks about Arthur's ears, because he's stepping on tender toes. "I know I'm sticking my neck out," he insists, "but there it is. I've proved my contention by too many personal experiences not to know what I'm talking about." The pulling and hauling that goes on behind scenes when there's a hot property going around is something that the outsider wouldn't believe. Let's let Arthur take us behind the scenes for a bit of case history. He is, incidentally, chief production associate for Ben Bogeaus, and had a finger in three Bogeaus ventures"Dark Waters," "Captain "Kidd," and "There Goes Lona Henry." Few, even insiders, know that it was Landau who channeled "Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo," one of the great stories of this war, to MetroGoldwyn-Mayer. flas the Know-How He was put in contact with Captain (now Major) Ted Lawson by a well-known Hollywood insider who, being a former flier himself, has lots of buddies among airmen. Landau perceived immediately that Lawson had something in the story of the Shangri-la fliers and their bombing of Tokyo. Paramount had first crack at it. Y. Frank Freeman was busy and told Arthur to send the idea through Bill Dozier, story editor. Arthur said "Nothing doing!" and went to see Eddie Mannix at Metro. That's how Paramount lost out. Lawson offered Landau a contract. "You're an army officer," said Arthur. "If your word isn't any good, your signature isn't, either." Lawson said, "How much can you get me?" Landau said he didn't know-maybe $5, maybe $10,000, maybe nothing. High Finance Metro held the script overnight, sent for Landau, and offered him $100,000 for it. Arthur said the author was holding out for $150,000. They compromised for $125,000. Landau was chinning with Eddie Cantor in Eddie's library one eve1 ning and happened to thumb through a volume of stories by Oscar Wilde. One he liked. He bought a copy of the volume and had a transcript made of the story. Harry Rapf met him at Metro and said he was looking for a yarn. Landau strung him along with an enthusiastic buildup and meanwhile ascertained that the American rights were in the public domain. Rap! snapped up the property. Surface Barely Scratched e The American major in charge of affairs in an e~ccupied town in Italy was questioning some of the eitizens of Adano. "What does this town need most?" asked one. he "Much to eat," replied the Italian. Another Italian said: "It needs a bell more than anything. The spirit is more important than the •tomach, and that hell which the Fascists took away from Adano was our spirit." The town got its bell. A BELL FOR ADANO- a best seller for many months- was written hy John Hersey, brilliant war eorrespondent for Time and Life, after covering the Sicilian campaign. The New York Times says: "It's the finest novel about American participation in the Second World War that we have seen." Look for this thrilling and informative story- IN THIS NEWSPAPER BEGINNING NEXT ISSUE "I'll venture," says Arthur, "that there are more good stories in the public domain than Hollywood has ever made. Not every Tom, Dick, or Harry can take these masterpieces and translate them to the screen successfully. Take Conrad, for example. Every effort to transfer his sea stories to the screen has flopped . So we accept the lazy man's explanation and agree that Conrad makes fine reading but can't be screened. Posh! He'll be screened one day by someone who'll know how. "Right here in our own company we bought 'There Goes Lona Henry' from RKO, which owned it for years. No one wanted to play in it. We ha d a new script written, and I give you my word some of the most sought after feminine star.> in town have expressed an eagerness to do it." • • • Kaye's Kind of Fantasy Sam Goldwyn has bought James Thurber' s "Secret Life of Walter Mitty" for Danny Kaye.

I The story was "The Canterville Ghost," which was made into a picture for Charles Laughton. Metro gladly settled with the British heirs to the Wilde es1;ate. Landau plucked 30 grand out of thin air and a hunch. Here's a free tip right out of the Landau feed box: He caught a newspaper story recently about W. H. Donald, the mysterious Australian who has been Chiang Kai-shek's personal adviser for many years. Donald was held captive in Manila by. the Japs, who were looking everywhere for him at the time, not knowing they had him right under their t~umbs.

Generally, soil should be spaded or plowed to a depth of 8 to 10 inches. The best method of spading, as generally accepted, is to spade across the garden, throwing out the first row of soil. This provides a trench into which succeeding spadefuls should be thrown, covering well all organic matter in the trench. If dry leaves are used, it is well to sprinkle them thoroughly with commercial fertilizer in the bottom of the trench. This will aid in their decay, giving them the necessary nitrogen. The beginner is inclined to take too big a "bite" of soil at one stroke with the result that it is not broken up properly. Smaller spadefuls will aid in shattering the soil, leaving it in a loose, crumbled mass. Trench Method Proves Beneficial Too much stress cannot be placed upon the use of barnyard or stable manures. Cost of obtaining the manure in towns and cities, however, is expensive and therefore the use of commercial fertilizers is especially advisable. On small, intensively planted gardens, fertilizers may be sown broadcast and thoroughly raked into the upper 3 or 4 inches of soil. It should be well mixed be-fore the seeds are planted. Some gardene rs apply fertilizer two inches to each side of the seed rows and a little deeper than the seed. Apply about one pound per 25 to 30 feet of row, if they are two feet apart. The usual method of composting manure is to place the required quantity in a low, flat pile and turn it once every week or ten days until it has been turned three or four times. After the third or fourth turning the manure can b e allowed to remain in a fiat pile until wanted for spreading on the garden. If the manure is dry, water should be added to prevent burning. Where large quantities of manure are used '. t is possible to save the finer ma~ rial for special sections of the gar· len. Some may be used for cold i1•nes or hot beds.

This is no discredit to the average American. He can't help it if Asia is mystC"Tious. It is only an accident that we know a great deal more about Europe.

We owe our national safety to them. If it were not for their native integrity we would be held in a nut-cracker between Germany and Japan at this hour, if we were yet able to fight at all. We Admire Britain Americans are a tender-hearted folk. We sympathize with other peoples and half-way try to understand them, but we don' t usually admire them very much. We felt sorry for the Poles when the Nazi took them in 18 days. Our hearts went out to the Norwegians because they didn't last three weeks. We wept with our British r elatives over Dunkirk, but we did more. We admired the British. Late in 1937 the city of Nanking, China, fell to the J apanese. Far away over the sea strategists thought that was about the end. If China had folded up the next day few people would have blamed her. We Americans would have turned the spjgot in our sympathy tank again and drawn out a generous sprinkling of tears for dear old China, and then tried to forget it. But forgetting it would have been impossible. Must Admire China If China had fallen in 1937, four J years before t he Pearl Harbor raid, any child can guess why we Americans would still be remembering it. But China did not fall. It would not ' be amiss for devout people to give thanks at the table three times a day that China did n ot fall.

Moisten the edge of the pastry and fold the empty half over the applecovered half. Press the edges together with a fork, and prick the top crust to allow steam to escape I in cooking. Bake in a hot oven, 400 to 425 F., about 20 minutes until apples are tender and crust brown. Apple dumplings are nke for a good winter dessert. Peel and core whole apples. Roll the dough in rounds about the size of fruit plates. In the center of each round place the apple. sprinkled with sugar, spice and salt and dotted with fat. Lift the edges of the dough up to the top of the apple and press to gethrr like a bag. Bake in greased muffin tins in a hot oven 30 to 40 min~te~ udil the apple is tender.

See Place for Milkweed Plant in Postwar Era MilkwC'ed seed oil has potential value for use in protective coatings such as exterior paints, enamels And baked finishes, according to a n•port to the American Chemical society. New U1'CS for the~e seeds, until now a waste product in the procluction of milkweed floss, will make puss1ble the introductior. of milkweed cultivation in the permanent !lgricultural economy after the war, it is pointed out. Prior to the war little attention was given to the commerical value of milkwePd floss and the oil from the seeds, and the overall economic and agricultural picture was not favorable for the establishment of any significant milkv.eed industry in this country, the report declares. However, as a rf'sult of the stoppage of kapok imports from the East Indies, the seed hair of milkweed floss has become of great technical impor~ tance, and recent tests have in· dicated its superiority over kapok. Although the plant is perennial and grows wild in many sections of the United StatPs and Canada, a J•.Hge amount is being cultivated to satisfy the great dcmand for the 1\oss. The plant is hardy and requires little attention after the first year of cultivation, and its growth IS valuable in preventing soil erosion. I Rhineland Palatinate - - f I ~"r WA.~~ Flu~.

"In the regular corrida six bulls are killed by three matadors working alternately with their own subordinate team of picadors and banderillcros. When the bull first comes in, he is played by banderillero and matador with capes. Then the mounted picadors enter, the bull charges them, often kills the horse but always gets a wound in the shoulder muscle from the picador's lance. Next four pairs of bandcrillas (barbed wooden shafts) are stud< into tile top of the hull's neck by thE bandrrilleros or. w1th musical accompaniment. by the matadrr himself. Then the n'CJtador takes the bull alone, ]Jiays him with the muleta (red cloth), kills him with a sword." The bullring is a round circus-like construction. whose arena is surrounded by a wooden grandstand. There, bullfighters await their turn, and to that alley, too, assistants in the corrida sometimes jump to safe- ) ty-the matador himself, of course, never leaving the ring until the bull has been killed. Under the grandstand are stables for the bulls and horses and an infirmary where doctors and nurses are always in attendance. The modern Rhineland Palatinate comprises chiefly the German political subdivision of the Saarland, a state which occupies nearly 2,000 square miles betwePn the west bank of the Rhine and the French Alsace-Lorraine border. Jt includes the extremely valu<1ble and now embattled mining and industrial Saar district, which was placed under League of Nations rule for 15 years after the First World war, and theT' returne~ to the Reich by plebiscite. Besides the mines and indu:;1ries, the Palatinate has rich stands of timber and fertile farm land that normally produces considerable grains, tobacco, potatoes, a'ld sugar beets. Orchards and vinevards arc a peacetime feature of tl;e region, w'1ich has been noted as a winegrowing center of Germany. Wines from this district are calkd Palatinate. The word Palatine has been applied also to a fur tippet covering the neck and shoulders. It was introduced during the 17th century by the Princess Palatine, wife of the Duke of Orleans.

A too-small tank will mean trouble within 2 to 5 years, and it is recornn ended that a ~~:ood size tank for farm house use .is 3 feet wide, and 6 feet deep, and 9 feet long, inside me-asurements. Material« necessary for a tank this size are 27 bags of CE'ment, 21'4 cubic yards sand, 3~4 yards gravel. 21 reinforcing rods 3 feet, 10 inches long and ~~~ inch diameter, and 6 2 by 8 inch planks, HT feet long, for baffles. Reason for the larger sized tank is that sewage will be forced out from the tank before complete decomposition and clog the dispersal field. and that th~ smaller tank will fill with sludge and have to be cleaned more often. : ~-tlze.A~I: AND FOUR BIG MAGAZINES ALL FIVE FOR ONLY 0 7 Rl"E STORY ............. ~ ..6 Mo. 0 1\fO'IHER ~ HO'\IE LIFE_l Yr. 0 Al\IERIC4.~ JRl.'IT (,J{OWFR ......... - - 1 Yr. 0 AMERIC\'1 POLLTRY JOl'RN \L . ........._ _ } Yr.

Limaburgers with Cheese or Egg Sauce Buttered Noodles Broccoli Raisin Bread Sandwiches Willed Lettuce Salad Whipped Gelatin with Cream Beverage Oatmeal Cookies Limaburgers. (Serves 6) I cup dried lima beans % cup meat drippings 1 small onion, chopped 1 cup finely chopped celery % cup flour 1 cup milk 1 egg, beaten 1~ cups fine bread crumbs 1% cups grated raw carrot 1% teaspoons salt Dash of black J>epper % cup chopped salted peanuts Prepare evening before: Soak beans for several hours in cold water, then drain, cover with boiling water and cook in a covered saucepan for 30 minutes. Drain and rub through sieve. To make 'burgers, mix lima beans with meat drippings in a saucepan, add onion and celery and saute until soft or yellow. Blend in remaining ingredients and stir over direct heat until mixture boils and thickens. Chill thoroughly. Shape into patties, when ready to make, and dip lightly in bread crumbs. Fry in bacon drippings until browned on both sides. To make sauce stir two hard-cooked eggs, chopped, into hot white sauce. Or, use lh cup grated American cheese in white sauce. Quickie Dinner II. Potato Souffle with Sliced Cold Cuts Green Beans Tossed Spring Salad Rye Bread Butter r Cup Cakes with Chocolate Sauce Beverage . Lynn Says: Protective Cooking: Milk, cheese, butter and eggs are perishable. Refrigerate them carefully and cook slowly to get the most out of your food. Cut carrots and other long vegetables lengthwise. Their cells are long and less of their nourishment will disappear if prepared this way. Add dressing to fruits and vegetables as 300n as they are cut or cubed. The dressing coats the cut surfaces and helps prevent vitamin destruction. Shell peas or beans just before cooking to prevent air from destroying the vitamin C. Use as little water as possible when cooking leafy vegetables. After washing vegetables such as spinach and cabbage, let water cling to the leaves and do not add any more when cooking. Hands off- when caring for vegetables. Bruising causes rapid vitamin loss.

Send your order to: By ELMO SCOTT WATSON Released by Western New <Paper Union, A LANKY horseman rode steadily through the Virginia hills under a bleak March sky, his lean face brightening as he recognized familiar landmarks. He was muscular and vigorous dospite his 66 years, with tanned skin, clear hazel eyes, a kindly expression and abundant gray hair that still showed traces of its original brick-red. The rider urged his sorrel faster up the slopes of a treecrowned hill that towered over the rolling country side. Spurring to the top, he threw the reins to a colored groom, dismounted lightly and greeted a family group waiting for him near a stately house. Thomas Jefferson had come home to Monticello. The year was 1809. But a few days before he had bid farewell to the White House, wished his friend James Madison Godspeed in the Presidency and rode out of Washington as a private citizen. Since his birth, April 13, 1743, Jefferson had traveled an eventful route. He had experienced some defeats and many triumphs. Virtually every high office within the gift of his feHow citizens had been his. He had been state legislator and congressman; governor and minister; secretary of state, vice president and President for two terms. He had doubled the territory of the United States and built a powerful political party. His ideals of liberty were engraved in the law of the land . And now in the fullness of his honors he was to spend the next 17 years in serene retirement as the "Sage of Monticello," busy amidst his farms. A Famous Epitaph. Visitors to Monticello always pause to study the epitaph chiseled on the gray granite shaft over Jefferson's grave. Written by the great statesman himsell before his death on July 4, 1826, it reads: "Here was buried Thomas Jefferson, Author of the Declaration of Independ~ncc; of the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom: and Father of the University of Virginia ." - Most Americans are familiar with these achievements of the manysided Jefferson. Few citizens, perhaps, are aware of another of his contributions-his work for the development of modern, scientific farming . So, on the birthday of this great farmer-statesman, it is appropriate to tell the story of his encouragement of agriculture. For farming was one of the consuming interests of Jefferson's life. His roots were bedded in the earth. In many ways he was generations ahead of his time. He clearly saw the future possibilities of American agriculture and strove to make them a reality. Jefferson inherited an estate of 1,900 acres. He added constantly ·to that farm and by the time he married 21-year-old Mart:1a Wayles Skelton on New Year's Day, 1772, his holdings exceeded 10,000 acres. A year later, the death of his fatherin-law brought the family an additional 40,000 acres situated in western Virgima. As a practical farmer, Jefferson was constantly on the alert for new ideas. He made Monticello into a progressive experimental farm where new machinery, new methods, imrroved stock breeding, new crops and tests in restoring soil fertility were tried out. Over a period of years he grew as many as 32 different vegetables on his farm. And he attempted to adapt and domPsticate acres of plants, shrubs and trPes from distant countries. His Land Impoverished. The "Sage of Monticello" had much to contend with. During his absence on public business, overseers who farmed the land ravaged it, he said, "to a degree of degradation far beyond what I had expectE-d." No attempts at diversification had been made. Unlike the farmer of today who can get advice trom hi~ county agents, agricultural college agronomists or experiment stations on whether his soil is deficient in nitrogen, phosphorus and potash and then obtain the correct analysis of mixed fertilizer, Jefferson had to depend on talks with his neighbors and his readmg of farm papers and books published in England. So he corresponded frequently with George Washington, James Madison, John Adams, the Marquis SEWING CIRCLE PATTERN DEPT. 530 Sout.h wens St. Cblcago Enclose 25 cents In coins for each pattern desired.

An architect who learned the art by independent study, he drew blueprints for many buildings, many of which still stand as a monument to the many-sided genius of their creator. In addition to Monticello, the best \ examples of his architecture are the capitol at Richmond and the University of Virginia.

Without glycerine we could not produce gunpowder to fire many of our shells an<l ship and plane instruments would not function.

Because of the shrinking reserve stock of this vital ingredient, the WPB already has found it necessary to ban the use of glycerine in practically all civilian products, cigarettes, cosmetics, dentifrices and dozens of others. This drastic move was made because we are nowhere near to bringing used fat collections to the point which will achieve the 200 million pounds yearly quota necessary to provide the glycerine its many war use:; requirer N a tiona!, collec,tions have continued to climb, even with the advent of meat and shortening rationing, but the highest monthly total so far- 7,312,617 pounds last Relief At Last ForYourCough CREOMULSION • Rural Driving Hazards Greater in Winter; Death Toll 24% Above Summer Months *HELPS BUlLD STAMINA *HELPS BUILD ACTUAL RESISTANCE TO COLDS Winter's most serious driving hazards are slippery snow-and-ice-covered roads and poor visibility caused by frosted or fogged windshields and long hours of darkness, and these hazards are more serious on rural highways than on city streets according to studies by the National Safety council.

MOISTURE ON IRON Question: One of the upright iron tubular !-beam supports develops beads of moisture, rusting the support in spots. Cleaning these spots and coating with aluminum paint is of no avail. What is the cause of this and what can be done to eliminate this condition? The moisture is about the same as that on the furnace pipe during summer months. Answer: The problem you have is the elimination of condensation caused by metal which is much colder than the moist air surrounding it. One solution is to box in the beam with a rigid insulating board or one-inch wood boards, making the joints tight. This will keep the warm, moist air from coming in contact with the cold metal. The furnace pipe should have been taken down for the summer, and, after cleaning, it should have been given a coating of light oil and stored in a dry place. • • • GALVANIZED CLOTHESLINE wmE The Questions 1.

It was necessary to excavate two feet lower than the basement floor. I built a concrete wall under the porch, leaving a dirt floor. Since the last heavy rains the water comes up through the ground; sometimes as deep as three inches. How can I stop this? Answer: You should, by all means, put down a concrete floor. For complete instructions on this type of work ask the Portland Cement association, 33 West Grand avenue, Chicago, Ill., to send you their bulletins on the subject. • • • Stippled Walls Question: What preparation is necessary to put paper on a stippled wall? Answer: If the stippling is deep remove the roughest part of the surface by rubbing with sandpaper wrapped around a block of wood. The slight remaining roughness can be filled with a spackle applied with a trowel. When dry, the wall is given a coat of size and paper applied. Where stippling is very faint no preparation is necessary, other than washing down the paint and sizing the walls. • • • Iodine Stains Question: I spilled some iodine in my washbasin, and now I cannot remove the stain.

COUGH DROPS iMJIIAieilll * Invest in Liberty: Buy War Bonds but the Tire Less than two years ago America faced as frightening a situation as any country at war ever faced. Unless something was done, and done quickly, we would soon be without rubber. that unless you, and all tire-owners continue to make the preservation of tires a vital personal problem ... our home-front transportation will break down and slow up the war production of America. And without rubber, no plane could fly, no tank could move, no ship could sail, no truck could roll, people could not get to work, materials could not move to and from plants. That was the situation the Government and the rubber companies had to lick inside of two yeara if America was to stay in the war. The way out is for you to conserve the tires you've got-stretch their life in every way you can. ~id~~~~.? Let's see what you think. Right now, there is nearly enough rubber to meet our essential needs. Today, this threat to American victory is merely an unpleasant memory, because Government, the Rubber Director, and a group of industries -rubber, petroleum, chemical, alcohol-work, ing together, compressed into less than two years a job that would normally have taken a dozen years. But .•. Because the public saw huge synthetic rubber plants shoot up almost over night, and heard that synthetic rubber was in large-scale production, they figured the tire headache was almost over. Question: I use two 100-foot galvanized clothesline wires. They were put up new last April and are to remain out in all kinds of weather. What can I coat or paint them with, other than grease, to protect them and lengthen their use? Aitswer: After cleaning the wire, give it a coat of good quality spar varnish. To get an even coat and for easy a,pplication, saturate a piece of cheesecloth with the varnish and then wipe it on the wire. Since there will be a great deal of friction, the varnish gradually will wear off and you will have to repeat the treatment. Sheep born in the fall and early winter, when sold in the suckling stage between two and four months of age, arc known as hothouse lambs, says Pathfinder. The animals not only have to be raised with special care, but they constitute only one in about every 25.000 sheep slaughtered here annually. Consequently, their meat is a rare and expensive delicacy and most of it is purchased by fine restaurants and oth.er luxury trade. ~-a~! This is the situation today-the rubber supply crisis is past, but the long predicted and anticipated tire shortage is with us. Why is this so, when thousands of tons of Government synthetic rubber are now being made? Why is this so, when the rubber industry is producing a tremendous tonnage of rubber products and more airplane and truck tires than ever before? Because, as the Baruch Committee foresawthe fact that few tires could be made until we had our synthetic rubber supply well on the way, resulted in millions of tires going out of service without replacement-and those remaining have less milea~e in them. Inventories of prewar tires are gone. Because our military needs are way beyond anyone's anticipations. Because the rubber companies must use a lot of their manpower and machines to make bulletsealing gas tanks and hundreds of other rubber products for war, in addition to tires. Because half of today's requirements are for heavy-duty, large-size truck, bus, combat, artillery, and airplane tires, requiring many, many times the labor and materials of peacetime needs • . . and finally . . . Because the manpower shortage hangs over the tire industry as it does over all industry, and there are just too few hands for the job. s~r.tte~ These problems will be licked when our enemies are licked. Meanwhile, we want to tell you frankly ~~~~~7~ Do no unnecessary driving. Live up to the government regulation-don't exceed 85 miles an hour. Keep your tires inflated up to recommended pressure, and check them every week. Avoid hitting boles in the road, or bruising your tires on curbs or stones. Don't start or stop suddenly. Slow down for sharp corners. See that your wheels and axles are in line. Switch your tires from wheel to wheel every five thousand miles, and have them inspected regularly for removal of foreign objects and repair of cuts. And-most important of all-recap your tires as soon as they become smooth. • • • Though not all civilians will be able to get synthetic rubber tires in the near future, you may be one of those who will. Therefore, you should know . . . and remember ... these facts: FACTS ABOUT PASSENGER CAR TIRES The synthetic rubber tire is not yet an improvement but it will keep your car rolling through the emergency. In many respects, the new synthetic rubber tires are an unknown quantity. How they would behave at the phenomenally high speeds of prewar days is purely academic. The patriotic citizen knows that high speeds wear out his treads far faster than the recommended speed of 85 miles per hour, and drives accordingly. Under-inflation, driving over rough roads, and other abuses are bad for all tires-but today's evidence is that synthetic tires will stand less of these abuses than the tires you have been used to. But, since these tires will be rationed to you in trust for the nation, it will be your duty to take every possible care of them, and to prevent misuse and abuse. As we gain more experience with synthetic rubber tires, more and more things will become known about them, and the public will be kept informed. If you use synthetic rubber tubes, be sure they are properly installed. They should be put into the tire, then inflated, deflated, and inflated again. And they should never be mounted on rusty rims. FACTS ABOUT TRUCK AND BUS TIRES On truck and bus tires, particularly in over-theroad, inter-city service, the situation is less satisfactory. Truck and bus tires are operated under more severe conditions than passenger car tires. They are heavier, thicker-generate more heat. They are all too frequently overloaded, must travel on any kind of highway their work requires. Again we'll be perfectly frank about it: synthetie truck and bus tires now built will not stand all the abuse that the prewar tire would take, especially overloading. Progress is being made every day-but overloading which damaged a prewar tire can ruin today's synthetic rubber tire. The Tire Industry is bending every effort to solve the serious problems of furnishing satisfactory and sufficient tires to the truck and bus field. But a serious threat still exists to our most vital transportation. So remember this-while the treads of present truck and bus tires are vitally mportant, the carcasses of these tires have a value to our truck operators, and to the nation, that is beyond price . Unless these tires are made to last and last, there is almost certain to be a breakdown of truck service. Every one of these tires must be recapped the very minute it needs it-before any damage i$ done to the carcass. Speeds must be cut down, especially on hot roads. Overloads must be eliminated. Proper inflation is a necessity. Operators, garage men, drivers, all have a heavy responsibility that they cannot now avoid. These are straightforward statements. The warning must not go unheeded. A new tire warranty recognizes these conditions, but the real job is conservation I a~~With conditions as they are, and synthetic rubber in its present stage of development, a new tire warranty has become necessary and has been adopted. It applies to aU tires. Under its terms, injuries such as bruises, body breaks, cuts, snags, and heat failures, as well as tread wear are not subject to adjustment consideration. Nor arc injuries or failures which result from improper tire ca.re or misuse or abuse. This includes failure as a result of overload, excess speed, improper inflation, or other non-defective conditions., Or when tires are used on rims not conforming to Tire and Rim Association Standards. Remember-the tire industry, the Rubber Director, everyone is working together with all their energy, as they have from the outset, to keep America's wheels turning.

Broken down, that represents a debt of $1,203 for every person in the country or $5,000 per family, on the basis of four members. Interest rates have fallen to an all-time low of less than 2 per cent, however. The present debt contJ'asts with the one of 55 billion which existed before tile war, when the interest rate aver:1ged 2~ per cent. Following World 'War I, the public debt reached 26~ billion clollars, with over 4 per cent int~rest. The present 165 billion dollar debt does not include over 4 billio:t dollars of government guaranteed obligatjons. Government Needs Reports On U. S. Holdings Abroad Form TFR-500 Supplies Valuable Information Concerning American Stake in Foreign Lands, Aids Reconstruction. By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. When Paratrooper Jones landed "plop" in the midst of a field he had never heard of in a country he had only read about in books, he was able to lead his comrades direct to a certain building whose purpose, importance, construction and contents, almost down to the last nut and bolt, were all known in detail by the American high command. Paratrooper Jones knew just where to get to the point he wanted to leave his dynamite and General Smith, at the headquarters, knew exactly the damage that would result to the enemy when that dynamite went off. Neither would have had that information if a worried banker in Bingville, U. S. A., hadn't painstakingly filled out Form TFR-500 which the treasury department had sent him. The information asked for concerned American investments in foreign lands, and the information the government got back made it possible for it to get the detailed blue prints of the factory that Jones blew up from the American firm which had built it and, in this case, the construction engineer who had bossed the job. The function of these annoying TRF-500's which have already located American investments in 102 countries, the largest single one of which is seven million dollars and the smallest forty dollars, serves other exceedingly useful, if not as dramatic, purposes. MANPOWER: Define Essential 1ndustry At least 75 per cent of a company's business must be essential for employees to be frozen into their jobs under War Manpower commission regulations. In plants with essential as well as nonessential production, only workers employed on the essential manufacturing can be frozen into their positions. Workers frozen in essential industry cannot transfer to other jobs without obtaining release from their employers, unless they can offer evidence that their skills are not being fully utilized in their occupations, or they are not being employed full time.

HOGS: Heavy Receipts COAL STRIKE: Agreement Reached With hog shipments flooding packing centers and many slaughterers reported shifting receipts to less congested yards, there were rumors that the government may impose a permit system to regulate marketing. During a recent three-day period, packers received 574,000 hogs, almost 40,000 over the record October peak of the previous week. With packers in possession of from three to ten days' supplies, 250 to 270 pounders brought $14.40 in the Chicago yards, with weights below 180 pounds dropping from 15 cents to $1 under the $13.75 "floor." Although the government had worked out a permit system for marketing last year, it did not apply it when heavy runs leveled off. According to experts, preference would be given to bigger hogs if the permit system were to be applied now. John L. Lewis' 460,000 soft and hard coal miners were ordered back to their jobs following agreement on new wage conditions between the United Mine Workers' steely chief and Secretary of the Interior Harold Meat Production Lewis (left) and Ickes. L. Ickes, acting on behalf of the government which again took over the pits when a serious strike threatened. Bypassing the War Labor board which had consented only to a wage increase of $1.121h daily, Lewis and Ickes worked out a formula boosting the bituminous miners' daily take to $1.50. Under the terms, the work day would be extended to 81h hours, with miners compensated for the average of 45 minutes of underground travel time, but with their lunch time chopped from 30 to 15 minutes. Anthracite miners will receive 70 cents more daily, 37.8 cents more by sacrificing 15 minutes of their 30 minutes lunch time, and 32.2 cents more as a result of a previous WLB award. RUSSIA: Near Rumania As German forces retreated in the southern Ukraine, they were only 100 mules from the prewar Rumanian border, while in the north, they fell back to within 45 miles of the old Latvian boundary. Krivoi Rog remq.ined the focal point in the southern Ukraine, with the Germans fighting bitterly to hold open an escape corridor for their troops threatened with encirclement in the great bend of the Dnieper river. With the Germans holding at Krivoi Rog, it appeared as though they were successful in moving most of their forces from the trap. Along the Black sea coast further south, Russian troops continued to pour over the bleak, barren Nogaisk plains, with German forces streaming westward toward the Rumanian border. As a result of recent movements, the battle front in Russia ran in almost a straight line from north to south, with the huge Dnieper river bulge eliminated. EUROPE: Food Plentiful With llh billion bushels of bread cereals harvested and dairy herds at high levels, Europe's fuod stocks appear adequate for the next year on the basis of repor~s of European newspapers a~d Swed1sh correspo~dents. Only p1g and poultry supplies are smaller. . Because of the efficiency of Germany's rationing system, it was said, food will not contribute to any collapse of the ~azi home front.

Other Function• One government official pointed out to me another important function this information plays in nonmilitary wartime activities. He said: "The more complete information the government has on the · total American stake abroad, the more successful will be the efforts of our forces on the fighting fronts, the more quickly will the Allied Military Government be able to restore civilian activities in reoccupied areas, the better equipped our representatives will be to safeguard the interests of the American people during the peace table discussions, and t,he sounder will be the working out of postwar policies in thEl field . of international economic relationships. "This survey of American investments abroad is an instrument of ~ital importance to the future of this country. Most other world powers have long since collected similar information. They not only know the holdings of their own nationals all over the world but their relations with those of other countries Their plans are well formulated to. protect and develop these investments. Our government believes we should not be less well informed." This official had a particular reason in discussing this situation with me. First, he wanted to stimulate the people who had received Form TFR500 in giving as complete a report as possible. Second, he desired wide publicity in the hope that other American citizens, individuals, corporations, executives of estates, trustees of charitable organizations who might be able to furnish the information desired, would get in touch with the treasury department and turn it over to the government. Meat production for 1944 will total 24 bil1ion pounds, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics reported, but increased government needs will cut civilian allocations. More than 96 million hogs will be slaughtered in 1944, the BAE said, or three million more than this year. Because of smaller spring pig crops, however, next fall's marketings should drop below current levels. Despite record slaughterings in 1943, cattle on farms shoul4 number about 80 million head January 1.

I WAR STOCKS FALL: HIGHLIGHTS. ENTERPRISE: A Michigan farmer, Frank Barron of Delta county, had about given up hope of raising anything on an eight-acre patch that lay under water until midsummer. His county agent suggested that Canadian purple top rutabagas might mature before frost. Barron sowed two crops and has harvested five tons to the acre, worth $70 at $14 a ton. in the week's news Throughout the year there is snow around the rim of Popocatepctl, volcanic peak in Mexico and tif1.h highest peak in North America.

The Moscow Conference Washington correspondents for the press associations and some of the country's metropolitan dailies as well as the network broadcasters lived on needles and pins for more than a day and a half before the news of the agreements reached at Moscow were released. -There have been many bad leakages in advance of important international events recently. The state department, the Office of War Information and the Office of Censorship have done their best to protect American newspapers and radio against these violations of premature release of important stories involving foreign countries. The leaks usually have come through foreign officials who whisper a few hirrts to some of their newsmen friends. They also sometimes occur when news dispatches, radioed in advance for later release, are picked up by the enemy or are divulged in neutral countries. Every effort was made to prevent such leaks in connection with the Moscow conference. The question of safety of the lives of British and American negotiators was involved. It was feared that if the fact that the conference was over was publicly revealed, the enerpy might be on the watch to shoot down the planes carrying Secretary of State Hull and British Foreign Minister Eden and their parties. Some of us who were affected, learned on the Saturday before the Monday of their official release that copies of the agreements had reached the state department earlier. We had guessed as much since the President commented on the success of the agreement the day before in his press and radio conference. We were told we would receive copies as far in advance as possible which meant t..l-}at someone representing the various news agencies and networks had to be on duty day and night. Finally, the word came Monday morning that the messages were available and they were given out at ten o'clock for release at one o'clock. We, therefore, had three hours in which to digest the five separate documents. Fortunately for me, the one o'clock release made it possible for me to report the story a minute and 19 seconds after it was given out on 1 my one o'clock network broadcast. BRIEFS ...

Also there is the question of claims for damage to American property. There are more than 100 people in the state department alone who are now working on postwar plans. One of the most important phases of this work is the reopening of trade with the war areas as well as the rest of the world. Of course, the terms under which the trade is reopened may depend on the industrial possibilities of the various areas; and how soon the controls of foreign exchange can be dropped will depend, in a large part, on the extent of the U.

LflW BURNJ~T. riding back to southlln Texa• In 1875 meets WILLY NICKLE, an old trapJ>er. Willy tells Lew lbe news: that the bank at Ox Bow hao been robbed, that TO~.r ARNOLD, owner of the Cross T, plans to move to Wyoming, that STEVE ARNOLD may be Involved lo the robbery, and that JOY AR. "OLD Is not yet married to CLAY MANNING, Cross T foreman. Later, Lew encounters four men. They olfer tum the job as trail boss. When be re· ruses, they capture blm a.nd keep blm prisoner at their camp. During the nlgbt Lew reco~:ntzes Clay 1\lannln,•s voice, lbouun,: "I'm through." Willy Nickle releases Lew, and be arrives at lbe rancb just as Ute Cross T berd Is stampeding. CHAPTER Ill The Longhorns were still in a closely packed formation but beginning to string out, wedge-shaped, with a small bunch of leaders at the point. Coming abreast. of thes~, he threw his horse agamst the1r hard-ribbed bodies, firing his gun close to the long, gaunt faces. They were running like frightened jack rabbits. But they edged away from his blazing gun. That broke their galloping stride for a moment. Slowly the black wedge began to curve, until in time the point was bent in and joining to the base. The cattle were still running, but in an endless merry-go-round now, getting nowhere. Their run slackened. Under the pressure of men closi~g. in they made at last a solid, milling pool. He turned his horse off to one side where a little group of riders had halted. In the dust and dark he had recognized no one and had not. been recognized himself. Then the1r talk began to reach him. Someone said, "We're lucky , that's all. They didn't get a good start." "Wasn't luck either," another put in "Who was it got up to the point so. fast?" That was Tom Arnold's rough low voice. They were aware of his horse the_n coming out of the dark, and their talk broke off. He roue in, grin· ning. "Hello, Tc:m," he said. "Lew?" Arnold's low voice lifted. "Boys, it's Lew Burnet!" The group moved and they were suddenly around him, tneir horses crowding his legs, and he was shaking hands and grinning in the warmth of friendly faces-Tom Arnold and Joe Wheat and old "Rebel John" Quarternight, who had taught him all he knew about cattle. He was aware, afterward, of one rider who had remained apart from these othE'rs, and he called out, "Hello, Clay." Clay Manning brought his horse around. "How are you, Lew?" His big shape leaned across the sad?le horn, \\ ilh all expression on a w1de mouth closely guarded. He was a high, square-built man, young and blond and strikingly good-lookmg; one who could be forgiven, Lew oflen thought, for watching his shadow on the gr:)und. There had been some reason for his wait off there in the dark, but now, casually enough, he said, ·'Guess you got here just in time. How'd you come?" "Down the valley," Lew said and added, "from Dripping Spring today." At that he saw the brief, direct stare Clay gave him; yet in the faint light he could read nothing more. One by one at spaced intervals the guard riders had come pr.st, and as their dim figures loomed out of the dark Tom Arnold had kept close watch. He swung back now, asking suddenly, "Clay, where's Steve? You were together." "I'll look," Clay said and started off. Near him Joe Wheat straightened up his thin slat frame, offering, "Better take someone. I'll go with you." 13ut Clay refused with a quick impatience. "Stay with the guard. Nothing's happened. Torn, you going back to the house? We'll get no more trouble now. There's too many of us. Someone ought to be with Joy." "I'm going," Arnold said. "Send Steve in when you find him. Lew, come on with me." They loped into the black valley mouth side by side, but aware of Tom Arnold's strict silence he held down the questions that crowded his mind Wit ·• ·\ ··,y's dust scrubbed from Ius fa , ...... his long hair watered back slick t.e went out into the hall and turned to the Cross T's family dining room. Owl-Head Jackson, the cook, came into the dining room from the kitchen carrying a heaped platter of food. "Lew!" He grinned. "You broomtailed maverick, it's good to see that ugly face of your; again!" From the front I"oom Joy called, "Pour a cup of coffee for me, OwlHead," and came on back. "Tell me about Wyoming!" she said. "That's a lot of country," he smiled. "What do you want to know?" "E\·erything! What it's.. like and what yC'u do there." "Wc11, I lived in a dugout," he sa id, "in the bank of a creek and spent most of my time fighting rats." "No" - she laughed - "i. don't mean th::~t Aren't th~re some mountl'ir.s: ·' , "Oh, sure; mountains, high ones. Some of them with snow all the year. In summer the streams don't go dry there. I guess it's sort of a pretty place," he admitted. "I liked the pines." "Then it's beautiful. I'm going to love it. I know I will!" That stopped him. He put down his fork. "Joy, what do you mean?" Her cheeks were flushed; the suppressed excitement had turned her breathless. "I wanted to be the first to tell you. I asked Dad to let me. You don't know, do you?" "No," he said, "I don't know anything." It burst from her then wildly. "I'm going north! We're all going. We're moving up there for good." "You don't mean with the herd." "Yes!" He could only stare at her. There had been nothing of this in Tom's letter either; no more than that he was sending his longhorns on a drive north. Yet it wasn't his thought of the long trail up which few women had ever gone that held him silent, but the three of them, Clay and Joy and himself, riding that trail together. His silence brought a little scowl across her dark eyes. "What's the matter?" "Joy," he asked, "when are you and Clay getting mar::ied?" Her lips parted and closed; the high color drained from her cheeks. When she spoke her voice was very quiet. " I don't know, Lew. \\iny?" She paus~d and looked away from him and then didn't wait for his answer. "He's been wanting it before we started. But I can't, and perhaps I'm not being fair. I'm just afraid, I guess." "Afraid of what?" She brought her eyes back to his face, and he could feel them trace the crescent mark on his forehead. "I don't know," she said. "We've waited too long. Too many things was the peace of family more than forty years. With his pipe going he looked down and said, "Well, Tom, here I am. There's one thing I'd like to know first. Joy says you're moving north. I thought it was only a trail herd." Arnold nodded. "She's We're leaving here for good." His head lifted sharply in an old challenging fling of his gray hair. He said, "You needn't look S.J confounded, Lew! A man has moved before. And I don't own the Cross T any longer. The cattle are mine, yes, but not this." lie waved into the room. "Nor the land." "Sold out?" "No." Arnold turned his head a little. "Joy, I'd like to talk with Lew alone." "Dad!" She sprang up and threw her arm across his shoulders. She shook him. "You can't go on keeping things back from me! What's the use? I'm not a little girl any morel'' "Well, all right," he said to her. "You know most of what's happened. You might as well hear the rest." She sat down again on the halved log with short legs and watched his face. "We had a bank robbery a month ago, Lew," he said. "At a bad time. Trail buyers had been here making up the1r herds for the nortk. The money they paid to a dozen Ox Bow cattlemen was on deposit in my vaults." It was charactenstlc of Lew Burnet not to tell that he ::ll ;·~a dy knew this. He waited. Arnold's eyes centered t!;ernselves into the smoldering juniper logs. He said quietly, "I took the blame. It's my bank and these cattlemen are my fri~nds. They'v~ got only small outfits, and if they lose their money now it'll break them. I know by law I don't have to make it up. But I'm going to. I've already turned the ranch in for assets. appointed a new president. and I'm out." "You pay a big price for your peace of mind, Tom ." "It's all a man's got worth keePing," Arnold said . He sat back in his chair. "I'm making a new start in the north. That's the only reason, as far as anyone should know, why I 'm leaving the Little Comanche." "But there's another?" The gray ~ead !lodded. "Stc;ve. A man was kllled m town the mght ?f the robber~, R~yburn, our sher1ff.

On her low seat Joy had made no sound, but something brought Lew's gaze down to her and he saw the tight lines of fear and horror in her face.

'.'An~. ~hen ir: Wyoming," Arnold said, 1t s Steve that can make, a new start, I, hope. Not me. I m too old now. "Dad, you aren't," Joy murmured. "What a thing to say!" Using a sliver of wood Lew explored the hearthstone crack for a cricket, didn't find him and looked up to say, "There wasn't much in your letter. Tom. And 1 know less since I got here. Like that slampede tonight. I've been wondering what was behind it." "My beef contract," Arnold said. "You know whac's happened to the price of longhorns up north?" "I do. Six hundred thousand head came up the trail last year. There'll be a million on the march this spring. That's too many. Unless trail troubles thin it out a whole lot a man won't get more than ten dollars at the end . What does your contract call for?" "Three thousand head at thirty. I deliver the Indian beef at Ogallala on the first of September. It's my own stuff I'm taking on to Wyoming." "Ninety thousand dollars," Lew figured. "That's H j ack pot for } ou! You're lucl{y, Torr.." But Arnold shook his head. "I would be if my contract was direct with the government. It isn't. The Indian Supply Company got a blanket award for the northern reservations th:s year, and I had to take a subcontrac:t delivering to them. You can see the joker in that. They handle all the money and pay me only when and if I reach Ogallala on September first. "They signed with me five months ago. Now they want to back ou\. A couple of their men came down here offering five thousand dollars to cancel my deal." f "I'm just afraid, I guess." have happened now. Whether I'm married or not doesn't seem so important any more." "I'm sorry, Joy." He reached across the table and took her two folded hands in his big fist, pressed them and let them go. In front of the big rock fireplace, Tom Arnold had done more than wait. He could hear the familiar sound of Lew Burnet's talk in the dinbg room, a slow and easy sound, and something restful and grateful had come over him with this knowledge that Lew Burnet was back. Thinking of Steve, T0m Arnold sat wholly still, held by a dead, heavy feeling compounded of loneliness and a father's defeat. It was his own fault, he guessed. For he knew himself for what he was-strict and unsparing, with a single-minded belief that a man was born into this rich new land to make the best use of his time. The talk in the dining room ended. He heard the chairs scrape back and thought of another ambition he'd had once and watched die. Then the two figures were pacing toward him, Joy with her hand in Lew Burnet's arm, looking small and so much a-live beside his straight high shape. He r cheeks were flushed. And he understood what it was in the man that could make him watch her in an amused but intently steady way, and the old he;pe he'd had once rose in him again. He smiled. "You get filled up, boy?" "I did." Lew grinned. "It's worth a month's riding to get one of OwlHead's meals!" Joy re:eased his .urn and sat down on a halved log with short legs at her father's knee. He ranged himself beside the fireplace, its blaze warming him and a sense of comfort sweeping over him powerfully. This was home.

Glycerine has no substitute, or in any case, no satisfactory one has yet been discovered for many types of explosives. Because of the shrinking reserve stock of this vital ingredient, the WPB already has found it necessary to ban the use of glycerine in practically all civilian products, cigarettes, cosmetics, dentifrices and dozens of others.

MOISTURE ON IRON Question: One of the upright iron tubular !-beam supports develops beads of moisture, rusting the support in spots. Cleaning these spots and coating with aluminum paint is of no avail. What is the cause of this and what can be done to eliminate this condition? The moisture is about the same as that on the furnace pipe during summer months. Answer: The problem you have is the elimination of condensation caused by metal which is much colder than the moist air surrounding it. One solution is to box in the beam with a rigid insulating board or one-inch wood boards, making the joints tight. This will keep the warm, moist air from coming in contact with the cold metal. The furnace pipe should have been taken down for the summer, and, after cleaning, it should have been given a coating of light oil and stored in a dry place. • • • GALVANIZED CLOTHESLINE wmE The Questions 1.

It was necessary to excavate two feet lower than the basement floor. I built a concrete wall under the porch, leaving a dirt floor. Since the last heavy rains the water comes up through the ground; sometimes as deep as three inches. How can I stop this? Answer: You should, by all means, put down a concrete floor. For complete instructions on this type of work ask the Portland Cement association, 33 West Grand avenue, Chicago, Ill., to send you their bulletins on the subject. • • • Stippled Walls Question: What preparation is necessary to put paper on a stippled wall? Answer: If the stippling is deep remove the roughest part of the surface by rubbing with sandpaper wrapped around a block of wood. The slight remaining roughness can be filled with a spackle applied with a trowel. When dry, the wall is given a coat of size and paper applied. Where stippling is very faint no preparation is necessary, other than washing down the paint and sizing the walls. • • • Iodine Stains Question: I spilled some iodine in my washbasin, and now I cannot remove the stain.

COUGH DROPS iMJIIAieilll * Invest in Liberty: Buy War Bonds but the Tire Less than two years ago America faced as frightening a situation as any country at war ever faced. Unless something was done, and done quickly, we would soon be without rubber. that unless you, and all tire-owners continue to make the preservation of tires a vital personal problem ... our home-front transportation will break down and slow up the war production of America. And without rubber, no plane could fly, no tank could move, no ship could sail, no truck could roll, people could not get to work, materials could not move to and from plants. That was the situation the Government and the rubber companies had to lick inside of two yeara if America was to stay in the war. The way out is for you to conserve the tires you've got-stretch their life in every way you can. ~id~~~~.? Let's see what you think. Right now, there is nearly enough rubber to meet our essential needs. Today, this threat to American victory is merely an unpleasant memory, because Government, the Rubber Director, and a group of industries -rubber, petroleum, chemical, alcohol-work, ing together, compressed into less than two years a job that would normally have taken a dozen years. But .•. Because the public saw huge synthetic rubber plants shoot up almost over night, and heard that synthetic rubber was in large-scale production, they figured the tire headache was almost over. Question: I use two 100-foot galvanized clothesline wires. They were put up new last April and are to remain out in all kinds of weather. What can I coat or paint them with, other than grease, to protect them and lengthen their use? Aitswer: After cleaning the wire, give it a coat of good quality spar varnish. To get an even coat and for easy a,pplication, saturate a piece of cheesecloth with the varnish and then wipe it on the wire. Since there will be a great deal of friction, the varnish gradually will wear off and you will have to repeat the treatment. Sheep born in the fall and early winter, when sold in the suckling stage between two and four months of age, arc known as hothouse lambs, says Pathfinder. The animals not only have to be raised with special care, but they constitute only one in about every 25.000 sheep slaughtered here annually. Consequently, their meat is a rare and expensive delicacy and most of it is purchased by fine restaurants and oth.er luxury trade. ~-a~! This is the situation today-the rubber supply crisis is past, but the long predicted and anticipated tire shortage is with us. Why is this so, when thousands of tons of Government synthetic rubber are now being made? Why is this so, when the rubber industry is producing a tremendous tonnage of rubber products and more airplane and truck tires than ever before? Because, as the Baruch Committee foresawthe fact that few tires could be made until we had our synthetic rubber supply well on the way, resulted in millions of tires going out of service without replacement-and those remaining have less milea~e in them. Inventories of prewar tires are gone. Because our military needs are way beyond anyone's anticipations. Because the rubber companies must use a lot of their manpower and machines to make bulletsealing gas tanks and hundreds of other rubber products for war, in addition to tires. Because half of today's requirements are for heavy-duty, large-size truck, bus, combat, artillery, and airplane tires, requiring many, many times the labor and materials of peacetime needs • . . and finally . . . Because the manpower shortage hangs over the tire industry as it does over all industry, and there are just too few hands for the job. s~r.tte~ These problems will be licked when our enemies are licked. Meanwhile, we want to tell you frankly ~~~~~7~ Do no unnecessary driving. Live up to the government regulation-don't exceed 85 miles an hour. Keep your tires inflated up to recommended pressure, and check them every week. Avoid hitting boles in the road, or bruising your tires on curbs or stones. Don't start or stop suddenly. Slow down for sharp corners. See that your wheels and axles are in line. Switch your tires from wheel to wheel every five thousand miles, and have them inspected regularly for removal of foreign objects and repair of cuts. And-most important of all-recap your tires as soon as they become smooth. • • • Though not all civilians will be able to get synthetic rubber tires in the near future, you may be one of those who will. Therefore, you should know . . . and remember ... these facts: FACTS ABOUT PASSENGER CAR TIRES The synthetic rubber tire is not yet an improvement but it will keep your car rolling through the emergency. In many respects, the new synthetic rubber tires are an unknown quantity. How they would behave at the phenomenally high speeds of prewar days is purely academic. The patriotic citizen knows that high speeds wear out his treads far faster than the recommended speed of 85 miles per hour, and drives accordingly. Under-inflation, driving over rough roads, and other abuses are bad for all tires-but today's evidence is that synthetic tires will stand less of these abuses than the tires you have been used to. But, since these tires will be rationed to you in trust for the nation, it will be your duty to take every possible care of them, and to prevent misuse and abuse. As we gain more experience with synthetic rubber tires, more and more things will become known about them, and the public will be kept informed. If you use synthetic rubber tubes, be sure they are properly installed. They should be put into the tire, then inflated, deflated, and inflated again. And they should never be mounted on rusty rims. FACTS ABOUT TRUCK AND BUS TIRES On truck and bus tires, particularly in over-theroad, inter-city service, the situation is less satisfactory. Truck and bus tires are operated under more severe conditions than passenger car tires. They are heavier, thicker-generate more heat. They are all too frequently overloaded, must travel on any kind of highway their work requires. Again we'll be perfectly frank about it: synthetie truck and bus tires now built will not stand all the abuse that the prewar tire would take, especially overloading. Progress is being made every day-but overloading which damaged a prewar tire can ruin today's synthetic rubber tire. The Tire Industry is bending every effort to solve the serious problems of furnishing satisfactory and sufficient tires to the truck and bus field. But a serious threat still exists to our most vital transportation. So remember this-while the treads of present truck and bus tires are vitally mportant, the carcasses of these tires have a value to our truck operators, and to the nation, that is beyond price . Unless these tires are made to last and last, there is almost certain to be a breakdown of truck service. Every one of these tires must be recapped the very minute it needs it-before any damage i$ done to the carcass. Speeds must be cut down, especially on hot roads. Overloads must be eliminated. Proper inflation is a necessity. Operators, garage men, drivers, all have a heavy responsibility that they cannot now avoid. These are straightforward statements. The warning must not go unheeded. A new tire warranty recognizes these conditions, but the real job is conservation I a~~With conditions as they are, and synthetic rubber in its present stage of development, a new tire warranty has become necessary and has been adopted. It applies to aU tires. Under its terms, injuries such as bruises, body breaks, cuts, snags, and heat failures, as well as tread wear are not subject to adjustment consideration. Nor arc injuries or failures which result from improper tire ca.re or misuse or abuse. This includes failure as a result of overload, excess speed, improper inflation, or other non-defective conditions., Or when tires are used on rims not conforming to Tire and Rim Association Standards. Remember-the tire industry, the Rubber Director, everyone is working together with all their energy, as they have from the outset, to keep America's wheels turning.

Holdings Abroad Form TFR-500 Supplies Valuable Information Concerning American Stake in Foreign Lands, Aids Reconstruction. By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. When Paratrooper Jones landed "plop" in the midst of a field he had never heard of in a country he had only read about in books, he was able to lead his comrades direct to a certain building whose purpose, importance, construction and contents, almost down to the last nut and bolt, were all known in detail by the American high command. Paratrooper Jones knew just where to get to the point he wanted to leave his dynamite and General Smith, at the headquarters, knew exactly the damage that would result to the enemy when that dynamite went off. Neither would have had that information if a worried banker in Bingville, U. S. A., hadn't painstakingly filled out Form TFR-500 which the treasury department had sent him. The information asked for concerned American investments in foreign lands, and the information the government got back made it possible for it to get the detailed blue prints of the factory that Jones blew up from the American firm which had built it and, in this case, the construction engineer who had bossed the job. The function of these annoying TRF-500's which have already located American investments in 102 countries, the largest single one of which is seven million dollars and the smallest forty dollars, serves other exceedingly useful, if not as dramatic, purposes. MANPOWER: Define Essential 1ndustry At least 75 per cent of a company's business must be essential for employees to be frozen into their jobs under War Manpower commission regulations. In plants with essential as well as nonessential production, only workers employed on the essential manufacturing can be frozen into their positions. Workers frozen in essential industry cannot transfer to other jobs without obtaining release from their employers, unless they can offer evidence that their skills are not being fully utilized in their occupations, or they are not being employed full time. Admiral William Halsey, left, and Gen. Douglas MacArthur map latest Allied war plans in South Pacific. Vice Admiral A. S. Carpenter is pictured behind General MacArthur. HOGS: Heavy Receipts COAL STRIKE: Agreement Reached With hog shipments flooding packing centers and many slaughterers reported shifting receipts to less congested yards, there were rumors that the government may impose a permit system to regulate marketing. During a recent three-day period, packers received 574,000 hogs, almost 40,000 over the record October peak of the previous week. With packers in possession of from three to ten days' supplies, 250 to 270 pounders brought $14.40 in the Chicago yards, with weights below 180 pounds dropping from 15 cents to $1 under the $13.75 "floor." Although the government had worked out a permit system for marketing last year, it did not apply it when heavy runs leveled off. According to experts, preference would be given to bigger hogs if the permit system were to be applied now. John L. Lewis' 460,000 soft and hard coal miners were ordered back to their jobs following agreement on new wage conditions between the United Mine Workers' steely chief and Secretary of the Interior Harold Meat Production Lewis (left) and Ickes. L. Ickes, acting on behalf of the government which again took over the pits when a serious strike threatened. Bypassing the War Labor board which had consented only to a wage increase of $1.121h daily, Lewis and Ickes worked out a formula boosting the bituminous miners' daily take to $1.50. Under the terms, the work day would be extended to 81h hours, with miners compensated for the average of 45 minutes of underground travel time, but with their lunch time chopped from 30 to 15 minutes. Anthracite miners will receive 70 cents more daily, 37.8 cents more by sacrificing 15 minutes of their 30 minutes lunch time, and 32.2 cents more as a result of a previous WLB award. RUSSIA: Near Rumania As German forces retreated in the southern Ukraine, they were only 100 mules from the prewar Rumanian border, while in the north, they fell back to within 45 miles of the old Latvian boundary. Krivoi Rog remq.ined the focal point in the southern Ukraine, with the Germans fighting bitterly to hold open an escape corridor for their troops threatened with encirclement in the great bend of the Dnieper river. With the Germans holding at Krivoi Rog, it appeared as though they were successful in moving most of their forces from the trap. Along the Black sea coast further south, Russian troops continued to pour over the bleak, barren Nogaisk plains, with German forces streaming westward toward the Rumanian border. As a result of recent movements, the battle front in Russia ran in almost a straight line from north to south, with the huge Dnieper river bulge eliminated. EUROPE: Food Plentiful With llh billion bushels of bread cereals harvested and dairy herds at high levels, Europe's fuod stocks appear adequate for the next year on the basis of repor~s of European newspapers a~d Swed1sh correspo~dents.

Other Function• One government official pointed out to me another important function this information plays in nonmilitary wartime activities. He said: "The more complete information the government has on the · total American stake abroad, the more successful will be the efforts of our forces on the fighting fronts, the more quickly will the Allied Military Government be able to restore civilian activities in reoccupied areas, the better equipped our representatives will be to safeguard the interests of the American people during the peace table discussions, and t,he sounder will be the working out of postwar policies in thEl field . of international economic relationships. "This survey of American investments abroad is an instrument of ~ital importance to the future of this country. Most other world powers have long since collected similar information. They not only know the holdings of their own nationals all over the world but their relations with those of other countries Their plans are well formulated to. protect and develop these investments. Our government believes we should not be less well informed." This official had a particular reason in discussing this situation with me. First, he wanted to stimulate the people who had received Form TFR500 in giving as complete a report as possible. Second, he desired wide publicity in the hope that other American citizens, individuals, corporations, executives of estates, trustees of charitable organizations who might be able to furnish the information desired, would get in touch with the treasury department and turn it over to the government. Meat production for 1944 will total 24 bil1ion pounds, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics reported, but increased government needs will cut civilian allocations.

I WAR STOCKS FALL: HIGHLIGHTS. ENTERPRISE: A Michigan farmer, Frank Barron of Delta county, had about given up hope of raising anything on an eight-acre patch that lay under water until midsummer. His county agent suggested that Canadian purple top rutabagas might mature before frost. Barron sowed two crops and has harvested five tons to the acre, worth $70 at $14 a ton. in the week's news Throughout the year there is snow around the rim of Popocatepctl, volcanic peak in Mexico and tif1.h highest peak in North America.

The Moscow Conference Washington correspondents for the press associations and some of the country's metropolitan dailies as well as the network broadcasters lived on needles and pins for more than a day and a half before the news of the agreements reached at Moscow were released. -There have been many bad leakages in advance of important international events recently. The state department, the Office of War Information and the Office of Censorship have done their best to protect American newspapers and radio against these violations of premature release of important stories involving foreign countries. The leaks usually have come through foreign officials who whisper a few hirrts to some of their newsmen friends. They also sometimes occur when news dispatches, radioed in advance for later release, are picked up by the enemy or are divulged in neutral countries. Every effort was made to prevent such leaks in connection with the Moscow conference. The question of safety of the lives of British and American negotiators was involved. It was feared that if the fact that the conference was over was publicly revealed, the enerpy might be on the watch to shoot down the planes carrying Secretary of State Hull and British Foreign Minister Eden and their parties. Some of us who were affected, learned on the Saturday before the Monday of their official release that copies of the agreements had reached the state department earlier. We had guessed as much since the President commented on the success of the agreement the day before in his press and radio conference. We were told we would receive copies as far in advance as possible which meant t..l-}at someone representing the various news agencies and networks had to be on duty day and night. Finally, the word came Monday morning that the messages were available and they were given out at ten o'clock for release at one o'clock. We, therefore, had three hours in which to digest the five separate documents. Fortunately for me, the one o'clock release made it possible for me to report the story a minute and 19 seconds after it was given out on 1 my one o'clock network broadcast. BRIEFS ...

Also there is the question of claims for damage to American property. There are more than 100 people in the state department alone who are now working on postwar plans. One of the most important phases of this work is the reopening of trade with the war areas as well as the rest of the world. Of course, the terms under which the trade is reopened may depend on the industrial possibilities of the various areas; and how soon the controls of foreign exchange can be dropped will depend, in a large part, on the extent of the U.

Willy Nickle releases Lew, and be arrives at lbe rancb just as Ute Cross T berd Is stampeding. CHAPTER Ill The Longhorns were still in a closely packed formation but beginning to string out, wedge-shaped, with a small bunch of leaders at the point. Coming abreast. of thes~, he threw his horse agamst the1r hard-ribbed bodies, firing his gun close to the long, gaunt faces. They were running like frightened jack rabbits. But they edged away from his blazing gun. That broke their galloping stride for a moment. Slowly the black wedge began to curve, until in time the point was bent in and joining to the base. The cattle were still running, but in an endless merry-go-round now, getting nowhere. Their run slackened. Under the pressure of men closi~g. in they made at last a solid, milling pool. He turned his horse off to one side where a little group of riders had halted. In the dust and dark he had recognized no one and had not. been recognized himself. Then the1r talk began to reach him. Someone said, "We're lucky , that's all. They didn't get a good start." "Wasn't luck either," another put in "Who was it got up to the point so. fast?" That was Tom Arnold's rough low voice. They were aware of his horse the_n coming out of the dark, and their talk broke off. He roue in, grin· ning. "Hello, Tc:m," he said. "Lew?" Arnold's low voice lifted. "Boys, it's Lew Burnet!" The group moved and they were suddenly around him, tneir horses crowding his legs, and he was shaking hands and grinning in the warmth of friendly faces-Tom Arnold and Joe Wheat and old "Rebel John" Quarternight, who had taught him all he knew about cattle. He was aware, afterward, of one rider who had remained apart from these othE'rs, and he called out, "Hello, Clay." Clay Manning brought his horse around. "How are you, Lew?" His big shape leaned across the sad?le horn, \\ ilh all expression on a w1de mouth closely guarded. He was a high, square-built man, young and blond and strikingly good-lookmg; one who could be forgiven, Lew oflen thought, for watching his shadow on the gr:)und. There had been some reason for his wait off there in the dark, but now, casually enough, he said, ·'Guess you got here just in time. How'd you come?" "Down the valley," Lew said and added, "from Dripping Spring today." At that he saw the brief, direct stare Clay gave him; yet in the faint light he could read nothing more. One by one at spaced intervals the guard riders had come pr.st, and as their dim figures loomed out of the dark Tom Arnold had kept close watch. He swung back now, asking suddenly, "Clay, where's Steve? You were together." "I'll look," Clay said and started off. Near him Joe Wheat straightened up his thin slat frame, offering, "Better take someone. I'll go with you." 13ut Clay refused with a quick impatience. "Stay with the guard. Nothing's happened. Torn, you going back to the house? We'll get no more trouble now. There's too many of us. Someone ought to be with Joy." "I'm going," Arnold said. "Send Steve in when you find him. Lew, come on with me." They loped into the black valley mouth side by side, but aware of Tom Arnold's strict silence he held down the questions that crowded his mind Wit ·• ·\ ··,y's dust scrubbed from Ius fa , ...... his long hair watered back slick t.e went out into the hall and turned to the Cross T's family dining room. Owl-Head Jackson, the cook, came into the dining room from the kitchen carrying a heaped platter of food. "Lew!" He grinned. "You broomtailed maverick, it's good to see that ugly face of your; again!" From the front I"oom Joy called, "Pour a cup of coffee for me, OwlHead," and came on back. "Tell me about Wyoming!" she said. "That's a lot of country," he smiled. "What do you want to know?" "E\·erything! What it's.. like and what yC'u do there." "Wc11, I lived in a dugout," he sa id, "in the bank of a creek and spent most of my time fighting rats." "No" - she laughed - "i. don't mean th::~t Aren't th~re some mountl'ir.s: ·' , "Oh, sure; mountains, high ones. Some of them with snow all the year. In summer the streams don't go dry there. I guess it's sort of a pretty place," he admitted. "I liked the pines." "Then it's beautiful. I'm going to love it. I know I will!" That stopped him. He put down his fork. "Joy, what do you mean?" Her cheeks were flushed; the suppressed excitement had turned her breathless. "I wanted to be the first to tell you. I asked Dad to let me. You don't know, do you?" "No," he said, "I don't know anything." It burst from her then wildly. "I'm going north! We're all going. We're moving up there for good." "You don't mean with the herd." "Yes!" He could only stare at her. There had been nothing of this in Tom's letter either; no more than that he was sending his longhorns on a drive north. Yet it wasn't his thought of the long trail up which few women had ever gone that held him silent, but the three of them, Clay and Joy and himself, riding that trail together. His silence brought a little scowl across her dark eyes. "What's the matter?" "Joy," he asked, "when are you and Clay getting mar::ied?" Her lips parted and closed; the high color drained from her cheeks. When she spoke her voice was very quiet. " I don't know, Lew. \\iny?" She paus~d and looked away from him and then didn't wait for his answer. "He's been wanting it before we started. But I can't, and perhaps I'm not being fair. I'm just afraid, I guess." "Afraid of what?" She brought her eyes back to his face, and he could feel them trace the crescent mark on his forehead. "I don't know," she said. "We've waited too long. Too many things was the peace of family more than forty years. With his pipe going he looked down and said, "Well, Tom, here I am. There's one thing I'd like to know first. Joy says you're moving north. I thought it was only a trail herd." Arnold nodded. "She's We're leaving here for good." His head lifted sharply in an old challenging fling of his gray hair. He said, "You needn't look S.J confounded, Lew! A man has moved before. And I don't own the Cross T any longer. The cattle are mine, yes, but not this." lie waved into the room. "Nor the land." "Sold out?" "No." Arnold turned his head a little. "Joy, I'd like to talk with Lew alone." "Dad!" She sprang up and threw her arm across his shoulders. She shook him. "You can't go on keeping things back from me! What's the use? I'm not a little girl any morel'' "Well, all right," he said to her. "You know most of what's happened. You might as well hear the rest." She sat down again on the halved log with short legs and watched his face. "We had a bank robbery a month ago, Lew," he said. "At a bad time. Trail buyers had been here making up the1r herds for the nortk. The money they paid to a dozen Ox Bow cattlemen was on deposit in my vaults." It was charactenstlc of Lew Burnet not to tell that he ::ll ;·~a dy knew this. He waited. Arnold's eyes centered t!;ernselves into the smoldering juniper logs. He said quietly, "I took the blame. It's my bank and these cattlemen are my fri~nds. They'v~ got only small outfits, and if they lose their money now it'll break them. I know by law I don't have to make it up. But I'm going to. I've already turned the ranch in for assets. appointed a new president. and I'm out." "You pay a big price for your peace of mind, Tom ." "It's all a man's got worth keePing," Arnold said . He sat back in his chair. "I'm making a new start in the north. That's the only reason, as far as anyone should know, why I 'm leaving the Little Comanche." "But there's another?" The gray ~ead !lodded. "Stc;ve. A man was kllled m town the mght ?f the robber~, R~yburn, our sher1ff.

On her low seat Joy had made no sound, but something brought Lew's gaze down to her and he saw the tight lines of fear and horror in her face. She looked only at her father, and then Tom Arnold's voice droppe~ al l the wa~. ~o an old man's deep bstterness. I ve do~e all , I can _to t:elp ~hat boy.

'.'An~. ~hen ir: Wyoming," Arnold said, 1t s Steve that can make, a new start, I, hope. Not me. I m too old now. "Dad, you aren't," Joy murmured. "What a thing to say!" Using a sliver of wood Lew explored the hearthstone crack for a cricket, didn't find him and looked up to say, "There wasn't much in your letter. Tom. And 1 know less since I got here. Like that slampede tonight. I've been wondering what was behind it." "My beef contract," Arnold said. "You know whac's happened to the price of longhorns up north?" "I do. Six hundred thousand head came up the trail last year. There'll be a million on the march this spring. That's too many. Unless trail troubles thin it out a whole lot a man won't get more than ten dollars at the end . What does your contract call for?" "Three thousand head at thirty. I deliver the Indian beef at Ogallala on the first of September. It's my own stuff I'm taking on to Wyoming." "Ninety thousand dollars," Lew figured. "That's H j ack pot for } ou! You're lucl{y, Torr.." But Arnold shook his head. "I would be if my contract was direct with the government. It isn't. The Indian Supply Company got a blanket award for the northern reservations th:s year, and I had to take a subcontrac:t delivering to them. You can see the joker in that. They handle all the money and pay me only when and if I reach Ogallala on September first. "They signed with me five months ago. Now they want to back ou\. A couple of their men came down here offering five thousand dollars to cancel my deal." f "I'm just afraid, I guess." have happened now. Whether I'm married or not doesn't seem so important any more." "I'm sorry, Joy." He reached across the table and took her two folded hands in his big fist, pressed them and let them go. In front of the big rock fireplace, Tom Arnold had done more than wait. He could hear the familiar sound of Lew Burnet's talk in the dinbg room, a slow and easy sound, and something restful and grateful had come over him with this knowledge that Lew Burnet was back. Thinking of Steve, T0m Arnold sat wholly still, held by a dead, heavy feeling compounded of loneliness and a father's defeat. It was his own fault, he guessed. For he knew himself for what he was-strict and unsparing, with a single-minded belief that a man was born into this rich new land to make the best use of his time. The talk in the dining room ended. He heard the chairs scrape back and thought of another ambition he'd had once and watched die. Then the two figures were pacing toward him, Joy with her hand in Lew Burnet's arm, looking small and so much a-live beside his straight high shape. He r cheeks were flushed. And he understood what it was in the man that could make him watch her in an amused but intently steady way, and the old he;pe he'd had once rose in him again. He smiled. "You get filled up, boy?" "I did." Lew grinned. "It's worth a month's riding to get one of OwlHead's meals!" Joy re:eased his .urn and sat down on a halved log with short legs at her father's knee. He ranged himself beside the fireplace, its blaze warming him and a sense of comfort sweeping over him powerfully. This was home.

Traditional Thanksgiving turkey may this year give way to roast chicken, but the feast can have all the spirit of those you have had in former y e a r s. Though your meal may be less elaborate, every food can be done to a turn, the frills may be just as intecesting, and your thanks can rise to a new height. Let the charm of your dinner lie in its simplicity. Get the most out of your food and prepare it to deliciousness. The same vegetables that you had with turkey can go with chicken-if turnip puffs or corn pudding or squash or sweet potato a.nd apples are a tradition in your family. Prepare your chicken with the same care you would give turkey and it will look as nice and taste just wonderful. It's easy enough ~o truss chicken properly so that 1t will look nice. Here's one way of doing it: Trussing Chicken. Insert trussing needle through body of chicken below knee joint and pull cord through; continue cord through wings. Tie tightly to hold wings close to body. Stuff neck opening of chicken with stuffing and tuck neck skin under cord. Use another piece of cord, and insert needle through legs' rear joint. Stuff body cavity and truss opening with truss pins or cord. Draw cord from legs around tail piece and tie legs down close to body. The stuffing is just as important as the chicken itsel.l. Have it not too soggy, not too dry, and well seasoned: •Celery Stuffing. 1 cup finely chopped celery 1 tablespoon minced onion 1 tablespoon minced parsley 1 tablespoon butter or fat % teaspoon marjoram % teaspoon celery seed Salt and pepper Water or stock 2Y2 cups bread crumbs Cook celt\ry onion and parsley in fat for a few minutes. Add other ingredients with enough liquid to hold together and make dressing slightly moist. •Roast Chicken. 4 to 5 pound roasting chicken Salt (% to ~ teaspoon per pound) Stuffing Melted fat Singe chicken, clean, wash and dr7. Rub inside with salt. Stuff lightly with celery stuffing and truss. Rub surface with unsalted fat. Place on rack in an uncovered roaster, breast up. Cover with layer of fat from body of chicken, then with a clean cloth dipped into melted,. unsaUed fat. Roast, uncovered, in a slow oven (300 degrees) until tender, basting occasionally with drippings. Season with additional salt when half done. Remove cloth near end of roasting period and allow to brown. A chicken weighing 4 to 5 pounds requires 30 to 35 minutes per pound to roast. A smaller chicken 40 to 45 minutes per pound. Cranberry Sauce has a place with all fowl, and especially in the Lynn Says: Conserving Fuel: You'll not only be saving on your own fuel bills but also co-operating with government requests if you save on cooking heat. Here's how: When using oven, plan to cook several items in it at once. Meat and vegetables, and even hot bread and dessert can all be cooked in oven. It's poor economy to use both oven and surface heat to get a dinner together. Food should be ready for oven at the same time oven is correct temperature. Do not keep opening oven door to see "how things are coming along."

That Picture on the Calendar on Your Wall Is the Most Widely Known-Also the Most Profitable-Form of 'Art' in America Today Released by Western Newspaper Union. By EL:t.IO SCOTT WATSON ou gaze upon one there on Y the walls of your home or your office every day and you enjoy looking at it. Chances are that you never give a second thought to that picture on the calendar any more than you do to any other familiar object in your daily life. But the truth is that when you look at a calendar picture you're looking at the most widely-known and most popular form of "art" in America today. For "calendar art" is truly the "art of the people" and it is seen and enjoyed every year by more people than have seen or enjoyed the combined output of all the "Great Masters" in history. Moreover, it's the most profitable form of art because the art-calendar business is esThis is one of Andx·ew Loomis' paintings of the Dionne Quintuplets timated at $20,000,000 annually which appearing on a Brown and Bigelow calendar, have made them and that has been going on for a America's favorite "pin-up girls" for the last nine years. number of years.

Moreover, into the millions each year ; 2lh mil- Boy meets girl (in an automobile) was a favorite calendar art theme around 1912. biggest of the "Big Six," for instance-and you'll learn that they · have experts whose business it is to "keep their ears to the ground" and find out what kind of picture Mr. and Mrs. America like best on their calendars. They get that kind of picture from American artists who are outstanding in the field of illustration-from Maxfield Parrish, Norman Rockwell, Lawson Wood, Rolf Armstrong, Anton Otto Fischer, Frank Hoffman, N. C. Wyeth and Maud Tousey Fangel-and a few months later the art calendar company's giant presses are turning out full-color or blackand-white reproductions of their paintings to adorn calendars which will hang in millions of homes and offices throughout the United States. Since our fighting men have been serving overseas, we've been hearing a lot about "pin-up" girls-Betty Grable, Rita Hayworth, Dorothy Lamour and other Hollywood celebrities. Are any of these the favorite "pin-up girls" of civilian America as well as military America? The answer is "They are NOT I" The favorite "pin-up girls" in the American home are five little girls who live up in Canada-the famous they've held that honor for the last nine yea:rs and it's doubtful if any Hollywood star or curvaceous Powers model will ever displace them since it seems that the plain people of America have both figuratively and literally, pin~ed their devotion to Annette, Cecile, Yvonne, Emilie and Marie Dionne, whose childish charms have been displayed the length and breadth of this land in paintings by Artist Andrew Loomis on Brown and Bigelow calendars. By actual count calendars bearing the picture of the Quints have sold into the tens of millions! What is true of this picture is true to almost as great an extent of pictures produced by other artists mentioned above. For they have produced pictures in every field-landscapes, portraits, "leg art" and nudes, also some of the best known sporting pictures in the world. Undoubtedly the average American knows the baby pictures of Maud Towsey Fangel better than the "Boy With the Fife" of Manet, and the Norman Rockwell "Boy Scout" better than the "Blue Boy" of G.ainsboro. He has become better acquainted with the landscapes of Maxfield Parrish, and feels closer to his famous blues and purples than to the landscapes of Turner and Corot. And from daily glances in his office and on his living room walls, the average American who hunts and fishes (and there are 15 million more of him) has come to lrnow and love pictures like Frank Hoffman's "At Bay," one of the outstanding calendar pictures in the Brown and Bigelow catalogue, better than any of Rosa Bonheur's masterpieces. No, the average American may not be tremendously art-conscious, but he likes pictures ancl knows what he likes. Moreover, you'll find what he likes hanging in his office, home, garage, work room, and places of recreation. And he can hardly wait till his bank, grocery, gas, or tire company, or other concern with whom he does business, or doesn't, sends him a calendar with his favorite artist's picture on it. Whether it's a nude or revealing bit of anatomy by Rolf Armstrong or Zoe Mozert, or a more artistic landscape by Maxfield Parrish, a tragi-comic situation painted in his inimitable fashion by Norman Rockwell, or a hunting scene by Frank Hoffman, each of these artists has his fans, and as soon as the calendar is brought in by the postman, it is unwrapped, and the plain American or his Missus hangs it up at the time-honored spot on the wall. The subjects they like run from the Dionne Quintuplets to historical scenes such as Columbus Discoverrng America or Washington Crossing the Delaware. If you think the present "pin-up" craze is big, remember back to the days when practically every American home either hung "September Morn" on the wall, or fought bitterly about the propriety and even morality of having it there. But the favorite subject, according to a Brown and Bigelow survey, has always been the landscape. The scene must be a homely, comfortable and comforting one-not the noisy, over-colored, flashy, modern art. However, the outstanding favorite of the average American, a favorite that has held its leadershlp for nine years, are the calendars picturing the Quints. Andrew Luomis' drawings of Canada's chief peacetime industry have sold lion at their peak, in 1936, and never less than a million a year. Girl calendars, nudes, leggy pictures, what is known to the newspaper man as "cheesecake," are next in popularity. Men like nudes best, and steel companies and tire companies send these to their men customers, garagemen, contractors, mechanics, etc. But a close runner up is the plain picture of a wholesome American girl, the clean-cut type of young girl of about 17. These are favorites with storekeepers, small town banks, beauty parlors, etc. A more sophisticated type is chosen by city shops, florists, milliners, and laundry and dry cleaning places. Besides the Quints, who are the essence of human interest, the human interest scenes go biggest in the average home-pictures like Norman Rockwell's, and the etchings of a boy and his dog. Religious pictures, which had waned somewhat in popularity, have spurted recently, undoubtedly due to the war. And the subject that is always sure of its popularity is the outdoor scene. Even the busiest of executives like them hanging in the office because it gives them a chance to relax for a moment by imagining themselves in the wide open spaces. Back in the decade from 1920 to 1930, the mother and child theme in calendar art was a popular one but it has fallen off somewhat in the last 10 years. Just why, no one knows. Calendar makers will tell you that the idea is "fundamentally sound" and the only explanation they have is that no artist recently has drawn a mother-child picture with exactly the right idea and technique.

REPAINTING CEILING 1 Question: Our living-room ceiling Cormerly was finished with calcimine. After several years this became dingy looking, and we decided to take it off and put on casein paint. The painter tried to wash off the old calcimine, but it would not come off. So he put two coats of casein paint on over it. The fmish now is bubbling and peeling. What is the best way to refinish the ceiling? Can wallpaper be put on t!le ceiling as it is now? Answer: Whether you use paint or wallpaper, all the present finish will have to come off. Calcimine will come off when washed with water containing some household ammonia. To remove the calcimine aJ'Id casein paint, wash with a solution of three pounds of washing soda or trisodium phosphat!l in a gallon of water. Then rinse with clear water. When the plaster is clean and dry, you can refinish the ceiling with paint or wallpaper. • • • Odor of Paint Question: Six weeks ago I painted my breadbox inside and t;ut with tlat paint ;md then gave it two coats of enamel. But whei, I put something in the breadbox overnight it gets a bad smell. How can I kill this odor? Answer: The inside of a breadbox never should be painted, for bread and pastry absorb all sorts of odors readily. Try washing the inside of the box with 2 solution c~ bicarbonate of soda, using about two tablespoonfuls in a quart of cold water. Or you could use one of the charcoal deodorants that are intended to absorb the odors in a refrigerator. If these znethods do not help, your only alternative is to remove the paint down to the metal; then wash well and wipe dry. If the bare metal is inclined to rust, wipe it with a thin coat of mineral oil. • • • ROUGH PLASTER WALLS I • • This bathing beauty was considered a very snappy number for calendars back in 1904.

The walls and ceilings at the present tiwe are finished with a rough, colored plaster. What should I do to these walls before I paper them? Answer: You can remove most of the roughness in the plaster by rubbing it down with coarse sandpaper wrapped around a block of wood. The remaining light depressions can be filled with a mixture of glue size, thickened with powdered whiting. For smoothing the surface, use a trowel. You might consider using wall cloth, which comes in handsome patterns and is strong and washable. sailing ship scudding along in a stiff breeze-have declined in popularity. However, as the American navy wins more and more victories, it is probable that pictures of warships will appear more frequently. But whether they choose the Quints, landscapes, human interest, or girl art, the American public is "pin-up" minded. It has been long before the war, and will be as long as, about this time of the year, the postman comes around with a calendar and its picture by the American's favorite artist. Calendars are made in every conceivable size and shape-from the smallest which will fit into the vest pocket to the "jumboes," 29 by 42 inches in size, which will cover a large blank wall. These "jumboes" go well in 'rUral areas where wall space isn't at such a premium as it is in !:mall apartments and small business offices in the congested metropolitan areas.

Although the damp climate has much to do with causing and aggravating the symptoms of rheumatism, British physician~ give perhaps more thought to the "nervous" or emotional factor in rheumatism than we do here. Of co,;rse, all physicians are aware of this factor and of the relation of that nervous ailment chorea (St. Vitus' Dance) to rheumatism. In the British Medical Journal, Dr. D. Hubble states that there are two Darts to the rheumatic state in childhood-nervousness and infection. Both are present in differing amounts so that it may be impossible in one child to distinguish any nervous instability (or lack of nervous balance) or in e.!lother to detect any evidence of infection. In one the emotional factor is most pronounced and infection apparently not present or occurs after the emotional factor is apparently entirely absent. As to "growing pains," Dr. Hubble points out that these pains result not from growth of the body but because of some difficulty attending the growth of the personality of the individual, and it is easier to find evidence of nervous instability than of infection in these cases. Although many physicians believe that infection is present first and causes the rheumatism with emotional instability following, Dr. Hubble states that there is more evidence to prove that the emotional or nervous excitability occurs before infection and "probably even prepares the ground for the infection." How can these symptoms be treated? This is done by removing the stresses of the child's home and school life; and by adjusting him to the surroundings best suited to his personality.

The pipelines, which have passed successfully the acid test of battle LOnditions in North Africa, are expected to revolutionize the transport not only of liquid fuels, but also of water to troops fighting in arid re· gions where water-holes are few and far between. The most important feature of this new pipeline is that it is practically as portable as the tank truck. It has been des igned so that it cal" be laid at the rate of 20 miles a day and can be moved or shifted so as to cover the most fluid and swiftly shifting fronts. Furthermore, its use will free overloaded supply roads from the extra burden of tank truck con,·oys Burning Wood To get the most heat from wood use the largest size piece that will go through the door of stove or furnace· A p ece·of sheet iron over the "grates of a coal furnace will help to reduce draft and provide steadiet heat.

As farmers received <ln average priee for milk of $2.90 a hundred pounds, the dairymen actually realized only 33 cents an hour for their work in producing milk, instead of the 37 cents an h'Jur charged for labor in figuring costs, says Prof. L . C. Cunningham of the college. This l abor wage compares with average factory earning of workers in the state of about 95 cents an hour. A study by the college in the 193940 season showed a cost of $2.07 a hundredweight. . Since . then feed costs have gone from $1.22 a hundred pounds of milk to $1.55. Losses, or depreciation in milking herds have about doubled. Farm wages have gone from $46 a month in July, 1939, to $76 in July, 1943, but are s!tll low compared to city wages. ou.r subscribers, we are offering bargain prices on your new>paper and favorite magazines.

As the Russians drove against the railroad, other forces of their army continued attacks on Nevel, less than 50 miles from the Latvian border in the north, and on Krivoi Rog in the south. At Krivoi Rog, the Germans continued to hold open an escape corridor for the last columns of Nazi forces pulling out of the huge bend of the Dnieper river. where early Russian attacks had threatened them with encirclement. Crossing into the eastern Crimea from the Caucasus, strong Russian forces drew up for a major attack on the 75,000 German troops reportedly massed in the huge peninsula, guarding the Black sea. The Nazis held their ground at the north entrance to the Crimea. TIRES: Continued Shortage Allied Pact-Seated around conference table from left to right, U. S.

" ITALY: Destroy Ports CROPS: Weather Helps Italy's northern ports of Leghorn and Pescara were blocked by Nazi demolition squads to render them usekss to the Allies for future operations or in the event Gen. Dwight Eisenho~er attempted landings above Rome to trap elements of five German divisions holding out in the mountainous country to the south. Principal action in Italy centered on the Fifth army front, where Lieut. Gen. Mark Clark's mixed British and U . S. forces were edging forward at the mountain passes at Mignano, to gain the long, level valley leading to Rome. Once General Clark's warriors burst through at Mignano, they still will have to buck elaborate Nazi mountain fortresses farther up the valley at Cassino, which stands some 60 miles from Rome. Because Allied troops must clamber up rugged slopes in the face of entrenched enemy machine gunners and mortars,· and U. S. artillery must rake whole mountain sides to clear out Nazi posts, progress necessarily is slow. Profiting from favorable weather, the 1943 corn crop was estimated at 3 billion, 85 million bushels by the department of agriculture on the basis of conditions November 1. This compared with last year's record crop of 3 billion, 175 million bushels. With October weather good and without widespread frosts, the large acreage of late corn reached maturity in Iowa, Missouri, northwestern Ohio, and parts of Michigan and Indiana . Checking summer drouths, rains perked up late corn in the South Central states. Record yields were in prospect for the Northwest. Other crop estimates for 1943: Wheat, 835,816,000 bushels; oats, 1,148,692,000; barley, 330,212,000; rye, 33,314,000; flaxseed, 51,486,000; soy beans, 206,017,000; rice, 69,019,000; potatoes, 469,092,000; sugar beets, 7,239,000 tons, and peanuts, 2,681,955,000 pounds-record highs for rice, potatoes and peanuts. Fit Italy Into War CLASSIFiED RUSSIA: Attack La~t Railroad WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS Hogs Crowd Markets Chicago's sprawling stockyards teemed with over 60,000 live hogs after a high three-day shipment of 128,500 head, which compared with 85,552 for the previous week and 66,418 for the same period of 1942. As a result, packers paid the "floor" of $13.75 for only the heavier weights out of the 200 to 275 pound range on which the government has pledged price support. Packers obtained many bargains in classes for which no "floor" has been constructed. So called "floor" prices were high on the flooded market, equalling the lowest tops since last December. To get Italy functioning on the side of the Allies, Gen. Dwight Eisenhower established a control commission headed by Maj. Gen. Kenyon Joyce, formerly of the 9th service command. Purpose of the commission will be to fit the country's agriculture and industry into Allied war plans, and to regulate Italian governmental administration. To prevent any political party from establishing its hold over the country through military force, the commission will control Italy's revived fighting services.

Although production of synthetic rubber is expected to total 818,000 tons in 1944 compared with 233,000 tons this year, only about 30 million tires will be manufactured to meet needs of essential users of cars, light delivery trucks, taxis and farm vehicles. Ordinarily, 50 million tires are made a year. Tightness in the civilian tire supply will prevail becnuse of military requirements, scarcity of manpower to operate fabricating equipment, reduction in the peace time inventory of tires, shortage of rayon cord for heavy duty tires, and the cut in crude rubber imports. To obtain maximum use of present tires, the rubber manufacturers' committee counseled drivers to preserve their tire carcasses, or bodies, for recapping by protecting the walls and not running down treads. Further, the committee advised low speeds, adequate air for tubes, and proper alignment for wheels and axles.

CHILD DELINQUENCY: Supervision Needed During the last year, delinquency among girls has iflcrea'sed 38 per cent and among boys ll per cent, Katherine Lenroot, chief of the children 's bureau of the department of labor, declared. With 5 1h million women with children under 14 years of age working, and many fathers in service or sleeping days, a general weakening in home supervision is a contributing cause for the delinquency, Miss Lenroot said. More than one million more women will be needed in industry this year, she reported . Other factors of delinquency, Miss Lenroot asserted, are lack of school facilities in war-expanded communities, and the increase in child labor to five million this year. "There would be little juvenile delinquency today if children were treated as as much of an emergency as armament production," Miss Lenroot concluded. LEND-LEASE: British Aid DEPARTMENT U. S.

The 54 officers who take care of this end of the work have a total air experience of 33 years, 318 days in the air. These men, known as regional safety officers (RSOs) are assigned to each air force and command in the United States. Here is an example of how the RSO works. He goes to a certain field. He meets some cadets who say they haven't had any breakfast. He puts that down in his notes. He looks the place over, notes a ditch parallel to a runway. He orders the ditch filled, talks with the mess officer and has breakfast served earlier. Then he tackles the boys themselves. He gives them a talk on the importance of instruments. Three separate moves and the accidents are cut down there. The second principle is "flight control." Here is where the flight control officer, traffic cop of the air, comes in . For traffic control is as important in the air as on the street. The men of this force offer a Pilot's Advisory Counsel. This service leads pilots through or around dangerous traffic or weather conditions. Suppose the flight control officer in the Seattle center knows Lieutenant Smith is headed in that direction. He also knows that a "cold front" is Tl!Qving across his path. So he radios Smith, tells him to make for an alternate airport. No. 3 on the list of safeties is "safety education." SaFety Education Most of the accidents in training the United States are due to perIinsonnel error-the fault of the human being, not the weather or the machine. This education comes through special movies, through manuals, through cartoons and posters. Here are some of the slogans that help: "Hitler and Hirohito cheer when you forget your n:aps · · · when yo.u pay no attention ~o telephone w1res . . . when you ]am on your brakes · . · w~en you don't check your gas · · · O~her points a;e driven home with ~ little s:'lrdon~c hu~or such as when a pilot thmks he s pretty hot, he's usually close to burning." "To grow old in .the natural. way, a ~pot has to use h1~ luck sparmgly .. · The fir.st SIX months of 1943 compared w1th all of 1942,. show these percentages of reducbon of accidents: . In pn~ary schools 2.3% In bas1c schools 5.5% In advanced schools 11 % And just see the table for accidents as miles flown go up~ 1921-30-Miles flown, 155,818,000accident rate, 2.11. 1943- Miles flown, 3,351,940,000accident rate, .716. That's how America is learning safety in the skyways. Practical Application If you think that sounds too high brow, just recall the remark: "He's had that squint ever since he saw that terrible accident." There are a lot more interesting new meanings clear over to the last word "zoopsia" which you know all about if you ever saw "Ten Nights in a Barroom," the great prohibition play. "Zoopsia" is what we {incorrectly) call " D.T.'s." The definition is "a visual hallucination of animals or insects." The little book also has an appendix in which there are careful and more detailed descriptions of the emotions-anxiety, fear , pride, vanity, etc., which we now know are as dangerous to our mental health when they get out of control as a flock of flu germs are to our bodily welfare. I'll give you a definition of the one emotion which is highly important because when it gets the upper hand in politics, it can do as much harm to a form of government as to an individual. "Egoism and egotism are not synonyms. Egoism is <>. self-seeking desire to gain advantages at the expense of the rights, convenience or possessions of others. It is essentially antisocial. Egotism is overvaluation of self one's opinions abiltty or clevernes's and correspo'nding undervaluation of others." Now, just apply that definition of egoism to blocs, political parties, 1 nations and you'll see why psychiatry is important in the new world. The more people who understand it, the more people will understand each other. The words in "A Psychiatric Word Book" are important words.

I wouldn't be surprised if Germany cracked inside this winter. At least another year to clean up Japan. (2) What about international cooperation afterwa rd? I don't know. The feeling I get in Washington is that there will be an honest attempt to form an international league, just as it is suggested in the Moscow conference. (3) Will President Roosevelt run for a Fourth Term? I doubt if even he knows that either. He probably will unless the war is done and over. BRIEFS .• paid, 25c. Gilmore, J!'i31 N.

Illustmtcd Pr<'mium coin book of once• trimmed milk wagon harne5S Hutchings, who is the author of "A Psychiatric Word Book" published by the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene and now in its seventh edition. This is not a book for laymen but it is exceedingly interesting to scan its pages just to see how ordinary words can achieve new meanings as new thoughts about new things develop. The word book is invaluable to the doctor and many others who will be more and more concerned with this important study of interpersonal relations-psychiatry. Let's take a layman's look at the pages of the little pocket volume. Starting at the beginning with "aan." Not the simple articles they look! The definition is not new in this case but shows the special meaning the person who reads psychiatry must know. The definition reads: "Prefixes derived from the Greek and having the same meaning as the prefix un- or the suffix -less. Without; absence of; not. Cf. amentia, anosmia." That takes us to amentia which means (1) absence of intellect; (2) a state of mind bordering on stupor; (3) feeblemindedness. You have heard of behavior but what is behaviorism? It is "the psychological theory which holds that correct conclusions in psychology must relit upon objective study and interpretation of behavior." You have also heard of conversion. Here is the psychiatrist's meaning of it. "The process by which an emotional trauma (that is an emotional 'wound') after repression becomes converted into a physical symptom in hysteria."

The army air force has been around the world 134,078 times! That is what air miles add up to-three billion, three hundred and fiity-two million in the fiscal year 1943.

LEW BURNET has returned from Wyoming to aouthern Texas In 1815, to take a Job &I traU bois for TOM AR· NOLD, owner of the Cross T ranch. On the way be gets news from WILLY NICKLE, and meets tour suspicious-actInC men. Tom Arnold tells Lew that be Ia movlnr: with hls herd to Wyoming, and that ~e Is trying to make good the losses austalned when the bank at Ox Bow was robbed. Tom fears that hls aon STEVE may be Involved. Tom also 1 aya that be must deliver three thousand aead of catUe to the Jndlan ar:ent at o~:allala by September 1 or lose a profit· able contract. Lew talks to JOY AR· NOLD, who Ia engaged to the foreman, CLAY MANNING. CHAPTER IV "I didn't know myself," she said, "until tonight. It's Steve. They've had terrible times this year. And yet Steve means everything to him. He sees Steve throwing his life away and it takes his own life right out of him." She looked up gravely. "Lew, you could have helped more than you did." Staring off into the room's darkness, he said, "I'll go up the trail, but that's all. I can't promise about the ranch." "Lew." Her hands slid down to his wrists. "Why, Lew?" Her voice was low and hushed. "Tell me. Why not?" He turned his head and looked down at her then; she was a woman with all of a woman's understanding and yet must hear a man say what was already plain enough. He saw the fullness and roundness beneath the tight red cloth of her dress giving her no longer the inno· cence of a little girl, and there was that breathless wait in her eyes. That controlled moment suddenly left him. He caught her and pulled her up hard in his arms. Once be· fore tonight he had kissed her; yet that for both of them was a kiss of meeting. He drew her up now with a violent urge to stir in her what was so mad inside himself. For an in· stant she was rigid, and then she was clinging to him with a turbulent strength. He let her go as suddenly as he had caught her and stood back, shaken and staring. Her voice choked. "Lew, I didn't know." She leaned against the mantel edge. "You know now." "Yes." She looked at him, pain and despair coming into her dark eyes. "I reCused and they started making up a herd of their own. Buying at the cheap price now, they'll save fifty thousand dollars if they get to Ogallala with that herd and I don't with mine." "Sure," Lew said, "sure," and a sudden restless impatience goaded him up onto his long legs. "But that's a game two can play, Tom! What's the matter here anyway? If a stampede is their deal give 'em one back. You've come up through enough trouble to know all the tricks." Unaroused, Arnold said quietly, "I've let Clay handle this." Lew's glance sharpened on him. "U trouble's bound to come," he said "I'd rather settle it now than on the trail. There'll be grief enough later. Does Clay know I'm to trail boss for you?" "Not yet." Arnold's dark eyes lifted. He smiled. "I'm glad to know you've still got an edge o~ you! That's what I've been countmg on, that and a proposition I'm going to make." His gruff bluntness returned. "Now don't get it into your fool head He awoke in the morning with that this is a gift. I've got my own the green streak of dawn beyond a,:ood and selfish reasons." Looking down past the man, Lew saw the breathless way in which Joy was watching him, her lips parted, all of her body held very still. And Tom was saying, "I want you to take a share in this Cross T herd. A trade. You've got that land in Wyoming. I've got cattle and no place to range them. I'm adding a thousand head of shes and yearlings to the beef contract. That thousand head will make a start on the new ranch-half for Joy and Steve, half for you." It was a generous offer, more than generous, all that he woul_d need, but with a price that neither of these two understood. Silenced by that knowledge, he stared down into the firelight so long that behind him, almost in anger, Arnold's gruff voice burst out, "W-:!11? What's the trouble now?" ''Tom," he said, "I'm sorry. I'll boss your herd north, and you can use my range in Wyoming. But I can't tie myself as a Cross T partner." He saw a sharp breath drawn between the girl's parted lips a'ld the old man's sudden blank amazement. "You forget Clay Manning," i he said. "That makes a fourth one in this deal after a while. There wouldn't be room." He was aware of Joy's d eeper quietness and of the fixed stare of her eyes upon him, and then in that moment's silence an abrupt rhythm of riders pounded across the ranch yard. It was Clay Manning's shout that , Lew climbed up on a steep slant sailed in to them, and then the thud of his boots hit the gallery outside, wooded with pine. swinging down trom saddle to floor edge as he alway& did, with his horse his window, and the tempest of last night's feeling with Joy was hardly at a stop.

They went without a telephone, since the budget did not allow one. (That was before Dwight W. Morrow rose to be a Morgan partner and United States ambassador to Mexico.) When Mrs. Morrow's four children were small she never failed to find time for a half hour of reading at supper. The sensitive ears of one of her daughters took in the rhythm of poetry and gave it out later in memorable prose. Earlier, as a student at Smith, Mrs. Morrow edited the College Monthly. As a graduate student at the Sorbonne and as a young teacher, she wrote stories and poems. After her marriage she produced five books, including The Painted Pig. (Three publishers rejected this successful tale of life down in Old Mexico.) Meanwhile, Mrs. Morrow ,ardened. She acted as president of Smith for a year, and still serves as trustee. And now, besides concerning herself with food, she aids the National War Fund drive and urges a woman at the peace table. Her husband must have trusted her budgeting. He left her the bulk of his estate.

Traditional Thanksgiving turkey may this year give way to roast chicken, but the feast can have all the spirit of those you have had in former y e a r s. Though your meal may be less elaborate, every food can be done to a turn, the frills may be just as intecesting, and your thanks can rise to a new height. Let the charm of your dinner lie in its simplicity. Get the most out of your food and prepare it to deliciousness. The same vegetables that you had with turkey can go with chicken-if turnip puffs or corn pudding or squash or sweet potato a.nd apples are a tradition in your family. Prepare your chicken with the same care you would give turkey and it will look as nice and taste just wonderful. It's easy enough ~o truss chicken properly so that 1t will look nice. Here's one way of doing it: Trussing Chicken. Insert trussing needle through body of chicken below knee joint and pull cord through; continue cord through wings. Tie tightly to hold wings close to body. Stuff neck opening of chicken with stuffing and tuck neck skin under cord. Use another piece of cord, and insert needle through legs' rear joint. Stuff body cavity and truss opening with truss pins or cord. Draw cord from legs around tail piece and tie legs down close to body. The stuffing is just as important as the chicken itsel.l. Have it not too soggy, not too dry, and well seasoned: •Celery Stuffing. 1 cup finely chopped celery 1 tablespoon minced onion 1 tablespoon minced parsley 1 tablespoon butter or fat % teaspoon marjoram % teaspoon celery seed Salt and pepper Water or stock 2Y2 cups bread crumbs Cook celt\ry onion and parsley in fat for a few minutes. Add other ingredients with enough liquid to hold together and make dressing slightly moist. •Roast Chicken. 4 to 5 pound roasting chicken Salt (% to ~ teaspoon per pound) Stuffing Melted fat Singe chicken, clean, wash and dr7. Rub inside with salt. Stuff lightly with celery stuffing and truss. Rub surface with unsalted fat. Place on rack in an uncovered roaster, breast up. Cover with layer of fat from body of chicken, then with a clean cloth dipped into melted,. unsaUed fat. Roast, uncovered, in a slow oven (300 degrees) until tender, basting occasionally with drippings. Season with additional salt when half done. Remove cloth near end of roasting period and allow to brown. A chicken weighing 4 to 5 pounds requires 30 to 35 minutes per pound to roast. A smaller chicken 40 to 45 minutes per pound. Cranberry Sauce has a place with all fowl, and especially in the Lynn Says: Conserving Fuel: You'll not only be saving on your own fuel bills but also co-operating with government requests if you save on cooking heat. Here's how: When using oven, plan to cook several items in it at once. Meat and vegetables, and even hot bread and dessert can all be cooked in oven. It's poor economy to use both oven and surface heat to get a dinner together. Food should be ready for oven at the same time oven is correct temperature. Do not keep opening oven door to see "how things are coming along."

That Picture on the Calendar on Your Wall Is the Most Widely Known-Also the Most Profitable-Form of 'Art' in America Today Released by Western Newspaper Union. By EL:t.IO SCOTT WATSON ou gaze upon one there on Y the walls of your home or your office every day and you enjoy looking at it. Chances are that you never give a second thought to that picture on the calendar any more than you do to any other familiar object in your daily life. But the truth is that when you look at a calendar picture you're looking at the most widely-known and most popular form of "art" in America today. For "calendar art" is truly the "art of the people" and it is seen and enjoyed every year by more people than have seen or enjoyed the combined output of all the "Great Masters" in history. Moreover, it's the most profitable form of art because the art-calendar business is esThis is one of Andx·ew Loomis' paintings of the Dionne Quintuplets timated at $20,000,000 annually which appearing on a Brown and Bigelow calendar, have made them and that has been going on for a America's favorite "pin-up girls" for the last nine years. number of years.

Moreover, into the millions each year ; 2lh mil- Boy meets girl (in an automobile) was a favorite calendar art theme around 1912. biggest of the "Big Six," for instance-and you'll learn that they · have experts whose business it is to "keep their ears to the ground" and find out what kind of picture Mr. and Mrs. America like best on their calendars. They get that kind of picture from American artists who are outstanding in the field of illustration-from Maxfield Parrish, Norman Rockwell, Lawson Wood, Rolf Armstrong, Anton Otto Fischer, Frank Hoffman, N. C. Wyeth and Maud Tousey Fangel-and a few months later the art calendar company's giant presses are turning out full-color or blackand-white reproductions of their paintings to adorn calendars which will hang in millions of homes and offices throughout the United States. Since our fighting men have been serving overseas, we've been hearing a lot about "pin-up" girls-Betty Grable, Rita Hayworth, Dorothy Lamour and other Hollywood celebrities. Are any of these the favorite "pin-up girls" of civilian America as well as military America? The answer is "They are NOT I" The favorite "pin-up girls" in the American home are five little girls who live up in Canada-the famous they've held that honor for the last nine yea:rs and it's doubtful if any Hollywood star or curvaceous Powers model will ever displace them since it seems that the plain people of America have both figuratively and literally, pin~ed their devotion to Annette, Cecile, Yvonne, Emilie and Marie Dionne, whose childish charms have been displayed the length and breadth of this land in paintings by Artist Andrew Loomis on Brown and Bigelow calendars. By actual count calendars bearing the picture of the Quints have sold into the tens of millions! What is true of this picture is true to almost as great an extent of pictures produced by other artists mentioned above. For they have produced pictures in every field-landscapes, portraits, "leg art" and nudes, also some of the best known sporting pictures in the world. Undoubtedly the average American knows the baby pictures of Maud Towsey Fangel better than the "Boy With the Fife" of Manet, and the Norman Rockwell "Boy Scout" better than the "Blue Boy" of G.ainsboro. He has become better acquainted with the landscapes of Maxfield Parrish, and feels closer to his famous blues and purples than to the landscapes of Turner and Corot. And from daily glances in his office and on his living room walls, the average American who hunts and fishes (and there are 15 million more of him) has come to lrnow and love pictures like Frank Hoffman's "At Bay," one of the outstanding calendar pictures in the Brown and Bigelow catalogue, better than any of Rosa Bonheur's masterpieces. No, the average American may not be tremendously art-conscious, but he likes pictures ancl knows what he likes. Moreover, you'll find what he likes hanging in his office, home, garage, work room, and places of recreation. And he can hardly wait till his bank, grocery, gas, or tire company, or other concern with whom he does business, or doesn't, sends him a calendar with his favorite artist's picture on it. Whether it's a nude or revealing bit of anatomy by Rolf Armstrong or Zoe Mozert, or a more artistic landscape by Maxfield Parrish, a tragi-comic situation painted in his inimitable fashion by Norman Rockwell, or a hunting scene by Frank Hoffman, each of these artists has his fans, and as soon as the calendar is brought in by the postman, it is unwrapped, and the plain American or his Missus hangs it up at the time-honored spot on the wall. The subjects they like run from the Dionne Quintuplets to historical scenes such as Columbus Discoverrng America or Washington Crossing the Delaware. If you think the present "pin-up" craze is big, remember back to the days when practically every American home either hung "September Morn" on the wall, or fought bitterly about the propriety and even morality of having it there. But the favorite subject, according to a Brown and Bigelow survey, has always been the landscape. The scene must be a homely, comfortable and comforting one-not the noisy, over-colored, flashy, modern art. However, the outstanding favorite of the average American, a favorite that has held its leadershlp for nine years, are the calendars picturing the Quints. Andrew Luomis' drawings of Canada's chief peacetime industry have sold lion at their peak, in 1936, and never less than a million a year. Girl calendars, nudes, leggy pictures, what is known to the newspaper man as "cheesecake," are next in popularity. Men like nudes best, and steel companies and tire companies send these to their men customers, garagemen, contractors, mechanics, etc. But a close runner up is the plain picture of a wholesome American girl, the clean-cut type of young girl of about 17. These are favorites with storekeepers, small town banks, beauty parlors, etc. A more sophisticated type is chosen by city shops, florists, milliners, and laundry and dry cleaning places. Besides the Quints, who are the essence of human interest, the human interest scenes go biggest in the average home-pictures like Norman Rockwell's, and the etchings of a boy and his dog. Religious pictures, which had waned somewhat in popularity, have spurted recently, undoubtedly due to the war. And the subject that is always sure of its popularity is the outdoor scene. Even the busiest of executives like them hanging in the office because it gives them a chance to relax for a moment by imagining themselves in the wide open spaces. Back in the decade from 1920 to 1930, the mother and child theme in calendar art was a popular one but it has fallen off somewhat in the last 10 years. Just why, no one knows. Calendar makers will tell you that the idea is "fundamentally sound" and the only explanation they have is that no artist recently has drawn a mother-child picture with exactly the right idea and technique.

REPAINTING CEILING 1 Question: Our living-room ceiling Cormerly was finished with calcimine. After several years this became dingy looking, and we decided to take it off and put on casein paint. The painter tried to wash off the old calcimine, but it would not come off. So he put two coats of casein paint on over it. The fmish now is bubbling and peeling. What is the best way to refinish the ceiling? Can wallpaper be put on t!le ceiling as it is now? Answer: Whether you use paint or wallpaper, all the present finish will have to come off. Calcimine will come off when washed with water containing some household ammonia. To remove the calcimine aJ'Id casein paint, wash with a solution of three pounds of washing soda or trisodium phosphat!l in a gallon of water. Then rinse with clear water. When the plaster is clean and dry, you can refinish the ceiling with paint or wallpaper. • • • Odor of Paint Question: Six weeks ago I painted my breadbox inside and t;ut with tlat paint ;md then gave it two coats of enamel. But whei, I put something in the breadbox overnight it gets a bad smell. How can I kill this odor? Answer: The inside of a breadbox never should be painted, for bread and pastry absorb all sorts of odors readily. Try washing the inside of the box with 2 solution c~ bicarbonate of soda, using about two tablespoonfuls in a quart of cold water. Or you could use one of the charcoal deodorants that are intended to absorb the odors in a refrigerator. If these znethods do not help, your only alternative is to remove the paint down to the metal; then wash well and wipe dry. If the bare metal is inclined to rust, wipe it with a thin coat of mineral oil. • • • ROUGH PLASTER WALLS I • • This bathing beauty was considered a very snappy number for calendars back in 1904.

However, as the American navy wins more and more victories, it is probable that pictures of warships will appear more frequently. But whether they choose the Quints, landscapes, human interest, or girl art, the American public is "pin-up" minded. It has been long before the war, and will be as long as, about this time of the year, the postman comes around with a calendar and its picture by the American's favorite artist.

Although the damp climate has much to do with causing and aggravating the symptoms of rheumatism, British physician~ give perhaps more thought to the "nervous" or emotional factor in rheumatism than we do here. Of co,;rse, all physicians are aware of this factor and of the relation of that nervous ailment chorea (St. Vitus' Dance) to rheumatism. In the British Medical Journal, Dr. D. Hubble states that there are two Darts to the rheumatic state in childhood-nervousness and infection. Both are present in differing amounts so that it may be impossible in one child to distinguish any nervous instability (or lack of nervous balance) or in e.!lother to detect any evidence of infection. In one the emotional factor is most pronounced and infection apparently not present or occurs after the emotional factor is apparently entirely absent. As to "growing pains," Dr. Hubble points out that these pains result not from growth of the body but because of some difficulty attending the growth of the personality of the individual, and it is easier to find evidence of nervous instability than of infection in these cases. Although many physicians believe that infection is present first and causes the rheumatism with emotional instability following, Dr. Hubble states that there is more evidence to prove that the emotional or nervous excitability occurs before infection and "probably even prepares the ground for the infection." How can these symptoms be treated? This is done by removing the stresses of the child's home and school life; and by adjusting him to the surroundings best suited to his personality.

The pipelines, which have passed successfully the acid test of battle LOnditions in North Africa, are expected to revolutionize the transport not only of liquid fuels, but also of water to troops fighting in arid re· gions where water-holes are few and far between. The most important feature of this new pipeline is that it is practically as portable as the tank truck. It has been des igned so that it cal" be laid at the rate of 20 miles a day and can be moved or shifted so as to cover the most fluid and swiftly shifting fronts.

As farmers received <ln average priee for milk of $2.90 a hundred pounds, the dairymen actually realized only 33 cents an hour for their work in producing milk, instead of the 37 cents an h'Jur charged for labor in figuring costs, says Prof. L . C. Cunningham of the college. This l abor wage compares with average factory earning of workers in the state of about 95 cents an hour. A study by the college in the 193940 season showed a cost of $2.07 a hundredweight. . Since . then feed costs have gone from $1.22 a hundred pounds of milk to $1.55. Losses, or depreciation in milking herds have about doubled. Farm wages have gone from $46 a month in July, 1939, to $76 in July, 1943, but are s!tll low compared to city wages. ou.r subscribers, we are offering bargain prices on your new>paper and favorite magazines.

As the Russians drove against the railroad, other forces of their army continued attacks on Nevel, less than 50 miles from the Latvian border in the north, and on Krivoi Rog in the south. At Krivoi Rog, the Germans continued to hold open an escape corridor for the last columns of Nazi forces pulling out of the huge bend of the Dnieper river. where early Russian attacks had threatened them with encirclement. Crossing into the eastern Crimea from the Caucasus, strong Russian forces drew up for a major attack on the 75,000 German troops reportedly massed in the huge peninsula, guarding the Black sea. The Nazis held their ground at the north entrance to the Crimea. TIRES: Continued Shortage Allied Pact-Seated around conference table from left to right, U. S.

" ITALY: Destroy Ports CROPS: Weather Helps Italy's northern ports of Leghorn and Pescara were blocked by Nazi demolition squads to render them usekss to the Allies for future operations or in the event Gen. Dwight Eisenho~er attempted landings above Rome to trap elements of five German divisions holding out in the mountainous country to the south. Principal action in Italy centered on the Fifth army front, where Lieut. Gen. Mark Clark's mixed British and U . S. forces were edging forward at the mountain passes at Mignano, to gain the long, level valley leading to Rome. Once General Clark's warriors burst through at Mignano, they still will have to buck elaborate Nazi mountain fortresses farther up the valley at Cassino, which stands some 60 miles from Rome. Because Allied troops must clamber up rugged slopes in the face of entrenched enemy machine gunners and mortars,· and U. S. artillery must rake whole mountain sides to clear out Nazi posts, progress necessarily is slow. Profiting from favorable weather, the 1943 corn crop was estimated at 3 billion, 85 million bushels by the department of agriculture on the basis of conditions November 1. This compared with last year's record crop of 3 billion, 175 million bushels. With October weather good and without widespread frosts, the large acreage of late corn reached maturity in Iowa, Missouri, northwestern Ohio, and parts of Michigan and Indiana . Checking summer drouths, rains perked up late corn in the South Central states. Record yields were in prospect for the Northwest. Other crop estimates for 1943: Wheat, 835,816,000 bushels; oats, 1,148,692,000; barley, 330,212,000; rye, 33,314,000; flaxseed, 51,486,000; soy beans, 206,017,000; rice, 69,019,000; potatoes, 469,092,000; sugar beets, 7,239,000 tons, and peanuts, 2,681,955,000 pounds-record highs for rice, potatoes and peanuts. Fit Italy Into War CLASSIFiED RUSSIA: Attack La~t Railroad WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS Hogs Crowd Markets Chicago's sprawling stockyards teemed with over 60,000 live hogs after a high three-day shipment of 128,500 head, which compared with 85,552 for the previous week and 66,418 for the same period of 1942. As a result, packers paid the "floor" of $13.75 for only the heavier weights out of the 200 to 275 pound range on which the government has pledged price support. Packers obtained many bargains in classes for which no "floor" has been constructed. So called "floor" prices were high on the flooded market, equalling the lowest tops since last December. To get Italy functioning on the side of the Allies, Gen. Dwight Eisenhower established a control commission headed by Maj. Gen. Kenyon Joyce, formerly of the 9th service command. Purpose of the commission will be to fit the country's agriculture and industry into Allied war plans, and to regulate Italian governmental administration. To prevent any political party from establishing its hold over the country through military force, the commission will control Italy's revived fighting services.

Although production of synthetic rubber is expected to total 818,000 tons in 1944 compared with 233,000 tons this year, only about 30 million tires will be manufactured to meet needs of essential users of cars, light delivery trucks, taxis and farm vehicles. Ordinarily, 50 million tires are made a year. Tightness in the civilian tire supply will prevail becnuse of military requirements, scarcity of manpower to operate fabricating equipment, reduction in the peace time inventory of tires, shortage of rayon cord for heavy duty tires, and the cut in crude rubber imports. To obtain maximum use of present tires, the rubber manufacturers' committee counseled drivers to preserve their tire carcasses, or bodies, for recapping by protecting the walls and not running down treads. Further, the committee advised low speeds, adequate air for tubes, and proper alignment for wheels and axles.

CHILD DELINQUENCY: Supervision Needed During the last year, delinquency among girls has iflcrea'sed 38 per cent and among boys ll per cent, Katherine Lenroot, chief of the children 's bureau of the department of labor, declared. With 5 1h million women with children under 14 years of age working, and many fathers in service or sleeping days, a general weakening in home supervision is a contributing cause for the delinquency, Miss Lenroot said. More than one million more women will be needed in industry this year, she reported . Other factors of delinquency, Miss Lenroot asserted, are lack of school facilities in war-expanded communities, and the increase in child labor to five million this year. "There would be little juvenile delinquency today if children were treated as as much of an emergency as armament production," Miss Lenroot concluded. LEND-LEASE: British Aid DEPARTMENT U. S.

Pleasant llvin!: quarters. year :.round Job. will pay higher w,1gcs for 'ClOd help. Write to The first is "prevention and investigation," and the keynote here is experience. The 54 officers who take care of this end of the work have a total air experience of 33 years, 318 days in the air. These men, known as regional safety officers (RSOs) are assigned to each air force and command in the United States. Here is an example of how the RSO works. He goes to a certain field. He meets some cadets who say they haven't had any breakfast. He puts that down in his notes. He looks the place over, notes a ditch parallel to a runway. He orders the ditch filled, talks with the mess officer and has breakfast served earlier. Then he tackles the boys themselves. He gives them a talk on the importance of instruments. Three separate moves and the accidents are cut down there. The second principle is "flight control." Here is where the flight control officer, traffic cop of the air, comes in . For traffic control is as important in the air as on the street. The men of this force offer a Pilot's Advisory Counsel. This service leads pilots through or around dangerous traffic or weather conditions. Suppose the flight control officer in the Seattle center knows Lieutenant Smith is headed in that direction. He also knows that a "cold front" is Tl!Qving across his path. So he radios Smith, tells him to make for an alternate airport. No. 3 on the list of safeties is "safety education." SaFety Education Most of the accidents in training the United States are due to perIinsonnel error-the fault of the human being, not the weather or the machine. This education comes through special movies, through manuals, through cartoons and posters. Here are some of the slogans that help: "Hitler and Hirohito cheer when you forget your n:aps · · · when yo.u pay no attention ~o telephone w1res . . . when you ]am on your brakes · . · w~en you don't check your gas · · · O~her points a;e driven home with ~ little s:'lrdon~c hu~or such as when a pilot thmks he s pretty hot, he's usually close to burning."

That's how America is learning safety in the skyways. Practical Application If you think that sounds too high brow, just recall the remark: "He's had that squint ever since he saw that terrible accident." There are a lot more interesting new meanings clear over to the last word "zoopsia" which you know all about if you ever saw "Ten Nights in a Barroom," the great prohibition play. "Zoopsia" is what we {incorrectly) call " D.T.'s." The definition is "a visual hallucination of animals or insects." The little book also has an appendix in which there are careful and more detailed descriptions of the emotions-anxiety, fear , pride, vanity, etc., which we now know are as dangerous to our mental health when they get out of control as a flock of flu germs are to our bodily welfare. I'll give you a definition of the one emotion which is highly important because when it gets the upper hand in politics, it can do as much harm to a form of government as to an individual. "Egoism and egotism are not synonyms. Egoism is <>. self-seeking desire to gain advantages at the expense of the rights, convenience or possessions of others. It is essentially antisocial. Egotism is overvaluation of self one's opinions abiltty or clevernes's and correspo'nding undervaluation of others." Now, just apply that definition of egoism to blocs, political parties, 1 nations and you'll see why psychiatry is important in the new world. The more people who understand it, the more people will understand each other. The words in "A Psychiatric Word Book" are important words.

Illustmtcd Pr<'mium coin book of once• trimmed milk wagon harne5S Hutchings, who is the author of "A Psychiatric Word Book" published by the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene and now in its seventh edition. This is not a book for laymen but it is exceedingly interesting to scan its pages just to see how ordinary words can achieve new meanings as new thoughts about new things develop. The word book is invaluable to the doctor and many others who will be more and more concerned with this important study of interpersonal relations-psychiatry. Let's take a layman's look at the pages of the little pocket volume. Starting at the beginning with "aan." Not the simple articles they look! The definition is not new in this case but shows the special meaning the person who reads psychiatry must know. The definition reads: "Prefixes derived from the Greek and having the same meaning as the prefix un- or the suffix -less. Without; absence of; not. Cf. amentia, anosmia." That takes us to amentia which means (1) absence of intellect; (2) a state of mind bordering on stupor; (3) feeblemindedness. You have heard of behavior but what is behaviorism? It is "the psychological theory which holds that correct conclusions in psychology must relit upon objective study and interpretation of behavior." You have also heard of conversion. Here is the psychiatrist's meaning of it. "The process by which an emotional trauma (that is an emotional 'wound') after repression becomes converted into a physical symptom in hysteria."

Just how safe is the job of a pilot? Not the job where you have to count on the enemy fighters and the ack-ack, but the job of learning to be a pilot. "Ninety-five out of every hundred army air force cadets are going through their flight training program with rto personal injury of any kind," says Col.

LEW BURNET has returned from Wyoming to aouthern Texas In 1815, to take a Job &I traU bois for TOM AR· NOLD, owner of the Cross T ranch. On the way be gets news from WILLY NICKLE, and meets tour suspicious-actInC men. Tom Arnold tells Lew that be Ia movlnr: with hls herd to Wyoming, and that ~e Is trying to make good the losses austalned when the bank at Ox Bow was robbed. Tom fears that hls aon STEVE may be Involved. Tom also 1 aya that be must deliver three thousand aead of catUe to the Jndlan ar:ent at o~:allala by September 1 or lose a profit· able contract. Lew talks to JOY AR· NOLD, who Ia engaged to the foreman, CLAY MANNING. CHAPTER IV "I didn't know myself," she said, "until tonight. It's Steve. They've had terrible times this year. And yet Steve means everything to him. He sees Steve throwing his life away and it takes his own life right out of him." She looked up gravely. "Lew, you could have helped more than you did." Staring off into the room's darkness, he said, "I'll go up the trail, but that's all. I can't promise about the ranch." "Lew." Her hands slid down to his wrists. "Why, Lew?" Her voice was low and hushed. "Tell me. Why not?" He turned his head and looked down at her then; she was a woman with all of a woman's understanding and yet must hear a man say what was already plain enough. He saw the fullness and roundness beneath the tight red cloth of her dress giving her no longer the inno· cence of a little girl, and there was that breathless wait in her eyes. That controlled moment suddenly left him. He caught her and pulled her up hard in his arms. Once be· fore tonight he had kissed her; yet that for both of them was a kiss of meeting. He drew her up now with a violent urge to stir in her what was so mad inside himself. For an in· stant she was rigid, and then she was clinging to him with a turbulent strength. He let her go as suddenly as he had caught her and stood back, shaken and staring. Her voice choked. "Lew, I didn't know." She leaned against the mantel edge. "You know now." "Yes." She looked at him, pain and despair coming into her dark eyes. "I reCused and they started making up a herd of their own. Buying at the cheap price now, they'll save fifty thousand dollars if they get to Ogallala with that herd and I don't with mine." "Sure," Lew said, "sure," and a sudden restless impatience goaded him up onto his long legs. "But that's a game two can play, Tom! What's the matter here anyway? If a stampede is their deal give 'em one back. You've come up through enough trouble to know all the tricks." Unaroused, Arnold said quietly, "I've let Clay handle this." Lew's glance sharpened on him. "U trouble's bound to come," he said "I'd rather settle it now than on the trail. There'll be grief enough later. Does Clay know I'm to trail boss for you?" "Not yet." Arnold's dark eyes lifted. He smiled. "I'm glad to know you've still got an edge o~ you! That's what I've been countmg on, that and a proposition I'm going to make." His gruff bluntness returned. "Now don't get it into your fool head He awoke in the morning with that this is a gift. I've got my own the green streak of dawn beyond a,:ood and selfish reasons." Looking down past the man, Lew saw the breathless way in which Joy was watching him, her lips parted, all of her body held very still. And Tom was saying, "I want you to take a share in this Cross T herd. A trade. You've got that land in Wyoming. I've got cattle and no place to range them. I'm adding a thousand head of shes and yearlings to the beef contract. That thousand head will make a start on the new ranch-half for Joy and Steve, half for you." It was a generous offer, more than generous, all that he woul_d need, but with a price that neither of these two understood. Silenced by that knowledge, he stared down into the firelight so long that behind him, almost in anger, Arnold's gruff voice burst out, "W-:!11? What's the trouble now?" ''Tom," he said, "I'm sorry. I'll boss your herd north, and you can use my range in Wyoming. But I can't tie myself as a Cross T partner." He saw a sharp breath drawn between the girl's parted lips a'ld the old man's sudden blank amazement. "You forget Clay Manning," i he said. "That makes a fourth one in this deal after a while.

They went without a telephone, since the budget did not allow one. (That was before Dwight W. Morrow rose to be a Morgan partner and United States ambassador to Mexico.) When Mrs. Morrow's four children were small she never failed to find time for a half hour of reading at supper. The sensitive ears of one of her daughters took in the rhythm of poetry and gave it out later in memorable prose. Earlier, as a student at Smith, Mrs. Morrow edited the College Monthly. As a graduate student at the Sorbonne and as a young teacher, she wrote stories and poems. After her marriage she produced five books, including The Painted Pig. (Three publishers rejected this successful tale of life down in Old Mexico.) Meanwhile, Mrs. Morrow ,ardened. She acted as president of Smith for a year, and still serves as trustee. And now, besides concerning herself with food, she aids the National War Fund drive and urges a woman at the peace table. Her husband must have trusted her budgeting. He left her the bulk of his estate. Erect, petite, calm, with a smile like Daughter Anne's, she was born in Cleveland, Ohio, 70 years ago. • SECOND FRONT TALK comes to the surface in the wake of the Kremlin banquet, and so brings closer the biggest job in the ram. . bunctious Wlll To1111 Ftrst career of Grenade at Nazi1 young Maj.

Beatrice Ayer Patton likes the army. In no other career except the ministry, she says, can a wife be so helpful. When her bright-eyed roaring general used to give his men those famous pep talks, she listened OD the sidelines to report reactions.

When the First World war started, Dedman was studying at Edinburg university, and figured to teach engineering. He got to Gallipoli, Egypt, Iraq, India, France, was wounded, invented a rifle grenade, won a captaincy, and afterward shipped to Australia figuring to be a farmer.

She has always beer a writer, she did a mystery story only last season. And her poem ~ and articles are being published ree:ular ly. ere wron Let's keep them wrong! lh• Japa wer• wrong. Cutting off our rubber supply in the :Pacific didA't take us out of the war-or eveD slow us up. For Government. the Rubber Director, the rubber industry. and. the petroleum, chemical, and alcohol industries pooled their patents and ideas, worked together, and accomplished the seemingly impossible. Today, there is no shadow of a doubt that our planell will continue to fly, our ships to sail, our tanks to roll. For America now has nearly enough rubber to meet our essential needs! The American people saw the new synthetic rubber plants spring up like mushrooms. They heard of large-scale production of synthetic rubber. And they applauded. Unfortunately, they alao jumped to the conclmion that they oould .dop worrying about tire3! It is true that the RUBBER supply crisis is past. But the long-expected TIRE shortage is with us! ..But,.. you may say, "how can this be when thou- l&llds of tons of Government synthetic rubber are being made ••• when such a tremendous tonnage of rubber products is being turned out. as well as more airplane and truck tires than ever before.,. One reason is that-as the Baruch Committee foreaaw-few tires could be manufactured until our synthetic rubber supply was well, on the war. This resulted in millions of tires going out of use at a tune when there were no replacements. Meanwhile, tires left in service have less mileage in them, and prewar inventories are gone. Another reason is that our military needs are far 1reater than anyone anticipated. Also, the rubber companies are using a lot of their machinery and manpower to tum out life rafts, bullet-sealing fuel tanks, and hundreds of other urgently-needed army and navy products, In addition to tires. And you should know that half of today's requirements are for large-size, heavy-duty bus, truck, artillery. airplane, and combat tires, requiring much more labor and materials than peacetime products. Finally, the tire industry, like every industry today, Ia feeling the manpower shortage, and there just aren't enough hands for the job. These problems will be overcome when our enemies are overcome. Meanwhile, we want to put our cards face up on the table. We've told you frankly why there is a serious tire ahortage. Now we want you, and every other American who owns a set of tires, to know that thiq country's transportation system can still suffer a serious blow •.. unless you make it you!' personal duty to take care of the tires yo11 now own. Do no unnecessary driving. Live up to the Government regulation-don't exceed 85 miles an hour. Keep your tires inflated up to recommended pressure, and check them every week. Avoid hitting holes in the road, or bruising your tires on curbs or stones. Don't start or stop suddenly. Slow down for sharp comers. See that your wheels and axles are in line. Switch your tires from wheel to wheel every five thousand miles, and have them inspected regularly for removal of foreign objects and repair of cuts. And .. ,. most important of all ••• recap your tires as soon as they become smooth. HOW GOOD ARE PASSENGER CAR TIRES OF SYNTHETIC RUBBER? It may be a long time before all civilians can get synthetic rubber tires. Meanwhile, if you should be one of the few who do get them, :~~ou will want this information; Synthetic rubber tires for passenger cars are good tires, and will give you satisfactory service if you take care of them. ).'olJ. should not think of synthetic rubber tires as imP,.oved tires . •.. but as..emergency tires. And remember that they have not yet had time to prove what they can do. It is beside the point to theorize on how they would react to the phenomenally high speeds of prewar days. Every patriotic American knows that tire treads . . . aU tire treads . •• wear out faster at high speeds, and so drives at today's recommended speed of 35 miles an hour. As time goes on, we will learn more about the effects of under-inflation of rough roads, and of other abusell. They damage all tires. Indications are that they do p:<oportionately more harm to synthetic rubber tires. Meanwhile, all tires are rationed to you in trust for the nation, and it is your duty to take every possible care of them, to avoid misuse and prevent abuse. As experience teaches us more and more about synthetic rubber tires, we will pass the information along to you. Meantime, play safe Be careful! If you use synthetic rubber tubes, be sure tney are properly installed. They should be put into the tire, then inflated, deflated, and inflated again. And they should never be mounted on rusty rims . TRUCK AND BUS TIRES ARE A DIFFERENT STORY Truck and bus tires, being larger and heavier, generate more heat. They are given long, hard usage on all kiDde of highways. They are all too frequently ove.doaded. Frankly, \oday's synthetic rubber b1,15 aud truck tire. will not stand the abuse that prewar tires would stand, especially overloading. Progress is being made daily-but overloading which would have cW.maged a prewar tire C&D r11in today's synthetic tire. The Tire Industry Is doing Its utmost to aolve the serious problem of providing the nation'• trucks and buses with satisfactory tires in aufti• clent quantities. But until this problem is solved, a dangerous threat exists to America's most vital transportation. Therefore, while treads of present truck and bus tires are immensely important ... the carcasses of these tires !taN a value be'!Jond all price to America, and to America's truck and bus operators! Unless tires now in use are made to last, these two essential services will almost certainly break down I These tires ••• every one of them •• : must be recapped the in.stant the tread wears smooth ••• before any damoge is done to the carcass• They must be recapped not once, but again and again! High speeds must be done away with ••• espeCially on hot roads. Overloads must be avoided. Tires must be properly inflated at aU dtnes. The responsibility to take care of thelle tirell ••• to make them last as long as pq~ible •.• is a vital necessityl It mu.St be shouldered by all operators, by all drivers, by aU garage men I No American can fail to heed this warning! The situation is so serious that it is recognized in a new tire war• ranty. But the real job is to conserve all tirer now in Ule! 'With conditions as tney are, and synthetic rubber iD its present stage of development, a new tire warranty hu become necessary and has been adopted. It applies to aU tires. Under its terms, injuries such as bruises, body breaks, cuts, snags, and heat fn.ilures as well as trea.d wear are not subject to adjustment consideration. Nor are injuries or failures wU.icil result from improper tire care or misuse or abuse. Thi.!J includes failure as a resnit of overload, excess speed improper inflation, or other non-defective conditions. Or when tires are used.on rima not conforming to Tire and Rim Association Standard!. Don't forget that everyone •.• the Tire Industry, the Rubber Director, and many others, are working together with all their energy, as they have worked from the b&ginning, to keep America rolling.

Mushrooms, rich in minerals and the B complex vitamins, combine with beef and give a tasty, nutritionally satisfying casserole. One of the common ways of making meat points stretch their furthest is the habit of buying a large piece of meat and making it do for several meals. In this way, the family can have the pleasure of a roast from a large- piece of meat done to succulence, then the homemaker can easily fashion meat dishes for at least 2 or 3 meals out of that which is left. Unfortunately foods do not taste as good the second day as the first. Flave:rs seem to fall asleep, the me at becomes dry and insipid, and the family becomes tired of what they sniffingly refer to as leftovers. This needn't be the case if you spend a little time and effort waking up the leftovers and making them just as appetizing as the food in its first form. Chicken is first-rate when served in these ways: •country Chicken Loaf. (Serves 6) 2 cops diced cooked chicken ¥2 cup chopped cooked carrots 1 cup cooked peas ¥2 cup chopped celery 1 tablespoon minced pepper 1 cup bread crumbs liz cup milk 2 egg yolks, beaten 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 teaspoon onion juice 1 teaspoon salt Y!l teaspoon pepper Force chicken, carrots and peas through a food chopper.

Pour over chicken ant:l bake at once in moderate (350-degree) oven. Serve from baking dish with gravy. Meat leftovers, even if they are few, can give a rich meaty taste if they're used in this way: Meat and Rice au Gratin. (Serves 6) 2 cops leftover meat, diced 1\filk or soup stock 2 cups boiled rice 2 tablespoons fat ¥2 cup grated cheese 1 teaspoon salt ¥s teaspoon pepper Cut meat into small piec~s and moisten with stock or milk. Spread Lynn Says: Fats Are Important: Fats produce glycerine needed to make munitions. Take home all fat and bone trimmings you pay for with your meat. Fats that you don't use will be bought by some markets. Accumulated sausage and bacon fat can be used for frying potatoes, eggs, fish, hash, chicken, or even in waffles, cornbread or gravy. Fats from roasts, chops and steaks can be clarified by heating 4 slices of potato with 1 quart of fat over low heat until fat bubbles. Strain through several thicknesses of cheesecloth and store in light-proof, tightly covered container. Use this clarified fat for making spice and chocolate cakes and cookies. . ------------------------------------------------- A bit of braised chicken garnished with buttered carrots, potato balls and celery leaves won't be a drain on points but will boost your menus. Recent research reveals that mushrooms have a mineral content somewhat higher than many other vegetables and fruits. Potassium and phosphorus are available along with appreciable amounts of copper and iron. Mushrooms are also one of the best plant sources of the B complex vitamins. Used to extend meats, mushrooms are not only nutritionally satisfying, but they can add zest and flavor even to the simplest of foods: Casserole of Beef and Mushrooms. (Serves 6) 1llz to 2 pounds short ribs of beef Floor, seasoned with salt and pepper ~ teaspoon thyme 1 tablespoon vinegar 1 cup water 2 stalks celery, chopped 6 scallions 1 8-ounce can mushrooms 1 small onion sliced 2 to 3 carrots, sliced 3 medium-sized potatoes, quartered Cut short ribs in individual squares and flour them. Brown in a small amount of fat in heavy skillet. Remove to casserole. Add sliced onion, vinegar, thyme, water and drippings in skillet, stirring until well blended; pour over meat. Cover and roast in slow oven (300 degrees) until tender, about 2 hours. Add vegetables and mushrooms with liquid and continue cooking 30 to 40 minutes. Add more water if necessary.

Answer: Smooth the wood by rubbing with fine sandpaper, and then clean the surface by wiping with benzine being extremely careful of fire. Get the brushing variety of lacquer, and follow carefully the manufacturer's directions on the can. • • • Mold and Musty Odor Question: We moved into a firstfloor flat two months ago and are having trouble with our overstuffed set. It is moldy and has a musty odor. There is no basement under the house; the floor is 21h feet from the g!'ound. What should we do about the moldiness? I Answer: The moldiness comes from the earth under the floor. If a concrete floor .in the basem~nt is out of the q';lestwn, the be~t thmg to do is t? pa~nt . the unders1de of t~e floor Wlth hqu1d tar or as~hal~. meluding the ~earns. The ,urmture should be a1red in the sun on a bright day and . it should be well brushed on all s1des. • • • Pai.nting Plywood Question: I have remodeled my kitchen, placing plywood on side ';Valls and ceiling. I should like to paint the kitchen white. What would you suggest for the first coat? Answer: Clean the wood and see that it is smooth, and then apply a first coat of enamel undercoater or flat paint thinned with a pint of raw linseed oil to the gallon of paint. After the first coat is dry, put on a second coat of undercoater or flat paint. When dry, smooth the surface by rubbing lightly with No. 000 sandpaper. Wipe off the dust and finish with a good quality quick-drying enamel. • • • Bole in a Tile Wall Question: I tried to fill a hole in a tile wall through which a valve of a hot water pipe projects with plaster of paris and cement. After a slwrt time the filling falls out. What can you suggest? Answer: When using cement, always wet down the old surfaces with water before putting the patching cement in place. After the hole has been filled, do not use th<! hot-water line until the cement has hardened; otherwise, the hellt in the pipe will dry out the cement before it has become set. Six to eight hours should be allowed. • • • Closed Rouse Question: When closing our country house, should we leave the oil burner running or shut it off? There would be only occasional attention given to it. Answer: When a house is to be left unoccupied for a long time with little or no inspection, the oil burner should be shut off. It should not be allowed to operate without frequent attention. It also is a waste of fuel to heat a vacant house. • • • Stained Chair Back Question: A chair upholstered in flowered silk was stained on the back by perspiration, which left a big round mark.

International Unity Aided By Moscow Conference Results of Famed Tripartite Meeting Continue To Grow; Spirit of Compromise Achieved in Moscow. By BAUKHAGE New.~ WNU Service, Union Trust Building Washington, D. C. Some weeks before Secretary Hull left for his Mission to Moscow, I interviewed him in his office in the state department. Shortly after he returned, he received a number of us in that same ~f'fice and gave us an informal talk about his trip. One of the things which impressed me greatly as r heard the secretary in the course of the hour-long meeting, telling us sidelights on his remarkable experience, was the way one word which he had used in his talk with me kept cropping up again and "'gain. It was the word "understanding." He applied it to personal relationships and exchanges between the members of the tripartite meeting and to the whole discussion and the decisions which grew out of it. It seemed to be a case of progressive understanding. In our first conversation, the secretary, indicating the papers which covered his great desk, said they all dealt with Russia. I did not know then that there was to be a Moscow meeting. And he made the point with considerable emphasis, that there was so much suspicion on the part of persons discussing the Russian situation that it was exceedingly hard to work toward an agreement. RAILROAD WAGES: In Congress' Lap As congress considered a resolution to grant non-operating railroad employees an eight cents an hour wage increase, it was announced railroad employment in mid-October of 1943 was 4 per cent over the same period last year, but still 100,000 short of needs. Congressional action on the wage increase was sought after the Office of Economic Stabilization refused to sanction the award, instead offering lowest paid employees a 10 cents Italy- Britilh troops here are shown pickinc their way through typical an hour boost and the highest paid ruins of village in aavage fighting on the Italian front.

A five man medical commission would be established to cons1der the possibility of lowering physical standards. The 548,000 cut in manpower neetls will give the army a total force of 7,652,000 men. It also was revealed that the army had saved over 13 billion dollars out of 127 billkn dollars appropriated for its use, with economies of over 10 billion dollars effected by curtailment of the armament, equipment and airplane programs. RUSSIA: Cut Nazi Railroads Two important railroads in Russia linking German armies of the north with those of the soutb, and running westward into the big pre-war Polish cities of Warsaw and Lwow, were cut by the Red armies. As the Russian forces severed these major German arteries, Nazi forces launched a strong counterattack against the Reds in the vicinity of these rail lines, gaining some ground. But here, as further to the south where the Germans claimed 500,000 Russians were hammering them above Krivoi Rog, the Nazi positions still were in a fluid state. To the north, the Reds pecked at the Nazi base of Gomel, serving as the southern anchor of their Baltic line which is hinged on Finland. Ten classes of reservists in the Baltic states have been called to military service by the Nazis. SOUTHWEST PACIFIC: Action Spreads With U. S .. forces being strengthened on Bougainville for a major drive against the 40,000 Japs reportedly defending their last stronghold in the Solomons, Liberator bombers lashed against the enemy's tiny Gilbert and Marshall Island possessions, standing out like pesky little thorns along our supply routes to the battle areas. Warding off Jap blows from the air, U. S. warships moved up Bougainville's west coast to pound the enemy's big airplane base of Buka. Absence of strong elements of the Japanese fleet in the advanced ba~ tie zone suggested that the enemy was concentrating his formidable naval force on protection of his 1,500 mile sea lane running from Japan proper to the rich islands south. In New Guinea, Australian forces began moving northward from Finschhafen toward the Jap strongholds of Madang and Wewak, from which the enemy's aerial units have been striking at the Allied bases. While Undersecretary of War Robert Patterson announced the war department was giving serious study to peacetime disposal of its holdings of 43,181,183 acres of land, it was revealed the federal government owned 383,600,533 acres. Federal land holdings were equal in size to the combined areas of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ohio, Alabama, Kentucky and Indiana. Adding to the federal government's vast land holdings, the army and navy purchased 15 hotels at a cost of $15,000,000. Some of these hotels have been returned to private ownership, like the Stevens in Chicago, bought for $5,528,101 and sold for Lend-Lease Foods OIL: Seek New Wells With a projected goal of 24,000 new oil wells in 1944, prospects loomed for increased activity in the Rocky Mountain states. Of the 24,000 new oil wells, 5,000 are to be exploratory and the remaining 19,000 development projects. The immense Powder river basin in the northeastern section of Wyoming and southeastern section of Montana might prove the focal point of operations. Congressional action in reducing royalties on discoveries on public domain to a flat 12.5 per cent for the duration and 10 years afterward furnishes incentive for action in the Rocky mountain region. Lend-lease food shipments abroad equal one-eighth of the U. S. supply, the Foreign Economic administration revealed. Civilians are receiving three-fourths of the production. Figures show that in the first nine months of this year, lend-lease food shipments include 3.2 per cent of total milk products; 10.6 per cent of dried eggs; 13.9 per cent of edible oils and fats; and 21.2 per cent of canned fish. Shipments of canned fruits and juices equal 2.5 per cent of total supply; dried fruits, 21.1 per cent; canned vegetables, 1 per cent; dried beans 10.3 per cent; dried peas, 14.2 per cent; corn and corn products, 0.1 per cent; wheat and wheat products, 0.9 per cent; and butter, 2.5 per cent. WAR GARDENS: HIGHLIGHTS. WAR PRODUCTION: The peak demand in war production has been passed, Harry Moulton, president of the Brookings Institute, recently told the American Finance conference in Washingtc.:1. He said that stocks of raw ma.erials have become entirely adequate, and even excessive in some cases. More and more cancellations of war goods contracts are coming, he predicted. in the week'• newa ELECTRIC ffiONS: Two million electric flatirons will be manufactured and sold next year, if the WPB will release materials. Arthur Whiteside, vice chairman of WPB in charge of civilian needs, has requested that enough metal and other material be allowed to make 500,000 irons in the first quarter of 1944. About three million irons were sold annually, before the war. Victory gardeners will be expected to raise at least 25 per cent more next year than this, delegates to the National Victory Garden Institute convention resolved. They met in Chicago. Other resolutions a:-;k for an increased allowance of about 33 per cent from the WPB on tools, fertilizer and insecticides, and for orders permitting garden clubs to buy 600,000 pressure cookers for canning. Extra gasoline was asked for people working co-operative gardem:. Analyst and Commentator. Open Di8cuaaion monarch, Britain; one with a communistic form of government, Rus· sia; and one, a democratic republic, the United States. The test came in Italy. After the parleys at Moscow, the AMG was limited in its functions, taking over only the districts nearest the front. An Allied military commission was formed which is making maximum use of the local native civilian officials. Italian Government But what about the government which the Allies would accept as satisfactorily representing the will of the Italian people? Surely Britain would demand that monarchy be given a chance to remain in power. Surely Russia would have no traffic with kings a'nd would instead demand a strong left-wing set-up. The supposed American compromise was a temporary regency, that, is, a liberal regent such as Count Carlo Sforza who was in exile from the Fascist regime and who left America shortly after the surrender of Italy. The little son of the crown prince would remain the symbolic head of the state. Many said that neither Russia nor Britain would accept this suggestion. However, although no definite step has been taken, semi-official sources have indicated that when Rome is recaptured and Marshal Badoglio, now premier, steps out, there will be virtual agreement on the part of the three victor nations on the American compromise. All that remains will be an agreement on the part of the Italian people. Even if the lat· ter is not achieved, there is evidence enough already of tripartite compromise and unity to seem to confirm the success of the Mission to Moscow. Then, in his talk on his return, he repeated this thought, saying that many people, because of their deep prejudices, had made it hard to bring about an understanding between the three nations. He said that when he left for Moscow, he felt that much of the misunderstanding was due to misinformation which all the parties shared concerning the others.

Lew Ia aware of some undercurrent of treacb· ery, possibly Involving Steve Arnold, Clay Manning, a new band, ED SPLANN, a011 four men whom Lew met earller. CHAPTER V Clay Manning and Ed Splann followed the galloping animal in to the nearest fire, where Splann caught his forelegs in a loop and threw him expertly. This huge bearded fellow was a cow hand all right, Lew admitted. But there was something else. Watching, while the hot Cross T iron was run on the steer's shoulder, he felt again the strain of Clay Manning's unnatural sUence, sitting his horse there close saying nothing. He turned his gaze up the valley and saw Tom Arnold coming from the creek-bottom trees and paused then with his eyes fixed upon the pole fences of the dipping chute, like two wide-open arms reaching out for an eighth of a mile. Then Clay Manning said idly, "What took you to the rims this morning?" "The view," he said, his eyes still speculating on the dipping chutes. "Always did like it from up there." "That all?" Clay's voice was roughly edged. "I'd like to know." "Clay," he said, "you've got noth· ing against me. You don't like my coming back to be trail boss for Tom, sure. But it's only because trailing has been my business these years. You'll still be Tom's foreman and segundo on this trip. If the Cross T ever gets north, Clay, we'll have to work together. That's a fact." He saw his plea have a strange effect in the blue eyes, troubling tl1em with a hounded look. And it seemed to bring Clay out into the open for an instant. Bitterly he said, "Lew, there's more happened here than you know. I can' t mAke any promises." He closed his mouth on that. "All right," Lew accepted. "There's something I do know. From the rims I could see herds going north while we're not even ready. There's a faster wa!' to do this branding if you want to try. Trick I saw worked last year." "How's that?" "Use the dipping chute. Roping's too slow. We could run this whole bun<::h through by dark tonight." Ed Splann had flipped his loop free from the branded steer and had turned toward ther.~ He brought his horse to a stop close beside Clay's in time to hear this last talk. He leaned forward in his saddle. "What kind of schoolboy game is that? What's the matter, Burnet, can't you use a rope?" Lew looked at him steadily, saying nothing. Somehow in this man he saw a trouble center on the Cross T. There was a surly sureness about him, more than the arrogance of brute strength. He wondered again why Clay would tolerate his sort in the crew. Then, as if made more bold and s ure by that silence, Splann goaded, ''Leave him try his schoolboy trick! Come on, Clay." Suddenly this early morning's calm decision to keep things running without trouble was gone. He understood that he was being ribbed into a fight. It was what Splann wanted, a showdown. It might as well come now as later. He swung his horse to get Clay from between them. But in that siime instant, incredibly fast, a gun was in the man's right fist. There was no smokiness in his eyes now. They were only a cold, hard gray, unblinking. "Now you," he began, but Clay's .quick warning cut him off. "Careful, Ed! Some body's coming!" It was Tom Arnold pounding toward them, his horse flung forward m a rush that swept along a dust .cloud when he stopped. "What the hell's going on here?" He glared at Splann's drawn gun. With a hot violence unlike him in a crisis he blazed, "Clay, is this all you've got to do?" He swung his angry stare. "Lew, what's wrong?" "Little argument, Tom. Nothing much." ''Well! What about?" "Difference of opinion mostly. Had an idea we could hurry up this branding by using your dipping .chute. You build your fires alongside, push the animals through and run U1e iron on them as they pass. I've seen it work." Arnold considered it, the anger golng out of him. "Well, Clay," he asked, "what's the objection?" "Not my method, that's all." "Maybe not. But if Lew's seen it work let's give it a try. Anything tu make up time." Clay hes itated. Beside him, Splann mo,•ed his horse closer. There was e little silence . Then Clay shook h1s head. "Tom, I'll tell you. If you want tn '3\vitch forem::~n rieht now instead of on the tr&il that suits me." Tom Arnold spoke quietly. "There's no call for cussedness, Clay, that I can see. But it's your choice. Lew, take the job." He swung his back to them and rode off. Clay Manning turned in his saddle. Something had happened to him in that moment of giving up his leadership of the Cross T. There was a grimness added to him that had not been there before. Without temper he said, "Lew, I'm going north with thJs herd for a reason that you understand. But not as your segundo. Either you or I'll end up in full charge." Beside him, suddenly, Splann kicked their two horses forward. "Come on, Clay, come on!" Like any captain leading an army troop, a trail boss needed a lieuten· ant, his segundo. And since Clay had refused Lew hunted up one man in the Cross T that he could count on absolutely. When Rebel John Quarternight's white head appeared among those riders darting in and out of the dust cloud he rode over and waved him to a stop. "John," he said, "I've taken over the herd. We're going to push this branding along." He explained his way and added, grinning with the strong affection that he had for this man, "No argu· ment now. I've heard it. I'll take no talk from a pullet like you I" It was John Quarternight who had taught him all he knew about cattle, most of what he knew about mena straight-backed, sturdy old war· rior, close to seventy now, with de- A quietness came over him and there was nothing that Lew wanted to say. ceivingly mild blue eyes and a drooping mustache turned yellow by the sun. His full life went into the past as far as the war for Texas independence, up through the Re· bellion and after that the Apache days. He chuckled. "No, got no argument. I'm beginnin' to think maybe we'd see Ogallala next Christmas! It's plain disgraceful pokin' irons at cows through a fence. But we'll give her a try." He swung his horse. "Build your fires, son. I'll tell the boys." Lew's wave brought Quarternight around to him. He yelled above the rattle of horns slashing at the fence logs and the bellowing din: "Takes two hands for this, John!" The old man stepped down be· side him and grabbed a hot iron. shaped like a cross, with another bar on top to make the T. They worked from opposite ends of the penned steers, meeting in the middle. It was a choking job. Cotton· wood made clouds of smoke. The rancid odor of singed hide filled the air. Over them a midday sun poured down a breathless heat. But the longhorns were moving, ten by t en in endless parade. In half an hour's time Lew waved Joe Wheat and Ash Brownstone down to relieve himself and Quarternight. Arnold jerked a nod at the work. He looked as if a heavy weight had been lifted from him. There was humor in him again. "Man's never too old,'.' he said, "to learn a new wrinkle! You'll have this job done by dark." A quietne:.;;s came over him a nd there was nothing that L ew wanted to say. Then Arnold said strongly, "Well, no complaint! A man loves a woman, raises a family and builds a ranch- that about completes the account, I gue:ss." He turned back and l aid the book on top of others in a wooden box. "Only one more thing I'd like to see. There's a paper in this, signed and legal. I'm storing the box in Joy's wagon. Not r.rowding fate any, but things hap· pen. If that comes to me we reach Ogallala you look book." Time had come to set the guard. Night shadows had slid like a blanket off the high rimrock. Out beyond the firelight four thousand longhorns made a black pool, watered and contented now, ready to bed down. Lew dropped his tin plate and cup into Owl-Head's wreck pan. He un· derstood well enough that trail custom allowed a crew to draw for their turns at night riding. First watch from eight until eleven was always the best choice. No man wanted to break his sleep in the middle and so hated the second guard from eleven until two. From two u!ltil dawn was only a little better, the whole day being ahead then with these earJy.morning hours tacked on. But for his own reason this trip he had decided to set the watch de· liberately. He wanted Clay and Splann and Steve in separate guards. He made a cigarette in brown corn shuck paper and stooped for a burning stick end. With the light up close he looked across at lank Joe Wheat. "Joe," he said, "I'm picking you to lead the first watch." All of the faces ringed around the fire lifted toward him. There was a tight silence. Then Ed Splann, his huge shape sprawled off, half hidden, growled out, "How about lettin' us cut cards for turns, Mister Boss? Ain't that thco usual caper? Cut for choice and choose our own watchmates, that's what." Then Lew said, "Well, Clay, we might as well understand something at the start. You've been a fore· man long enough to know what the job means. Plenty of times come along when you don't stop to explain your orders. I don't intend to. Like the way I'm setting thilil guard." He brought his eyes around the ring of faces and stopped on Splann's surly stare. "If anyone here can' t take my say-so he'd better quit right now.'' He held that stare for a moment, saw its cold, hard steeliness and understood what he saw. "All right," he said and turned again to Wheat. "Joe, you'll take first guard with Clay and Neal Good. I'll take second; Steve, I want you to ride with me, you and John. That leaves the tag end for you, Ash, with Charley Storms and Ed Splann." Ash Brownstone, Quarternight and Joe Wheat were the old men of thilJ crew, all of them dependable. Thus he had one trusted hand in each of the three guards. "I'm going in to the house, Lew," Steve said, and looked off some· where before he asked, "You rid·· ing j.n?" Lew shook his head idly. "No, guess not." Yet he watched the quick turn of Steve's shoulders with a frowning interest. And afterward, when he heard his horse race off toward the creek woods, he said quietly to John Quarternight, "Wouldn't hurt to stand double guard for a little while. Let's ride." Mounted, he held to the darkness, keeping c}ear of the longhorns, and then drew to a halt off on the barren, empty plain. He saw old Rebel John sitting up high in his saddle, smelling the wind for trouble, and said, "Wait." It wasr.'t long. Moving slowly, a horse circled out from the creek growth, shielded by the dark. Later its hoofbeats struck up a faster pace, aiming for the short row of lights that was Ox Bow town, five miles away. Angry and bitter with this knowledge that Steve was making a sneak, L ew sat rigid, listening, until Qual ternight said, "That boy never could cover his tracks!" "He's got no good business in town, John-not now." Off in the east the first lonely gray of dawn was spreading upward from the plains. The black pool of four thousand longhorns had risen, held by the last guard of the night. As casually as that, as i! this might be only a half day's drive to the railroad, the Cross T moved into its march of twel•;e hundred miles. It was the usual start, no better nor worse than he had expected. He watched backward over the repeated melees, yet took no hand. Both men and beasts needed to get the fight out of their systems. After the noon meal Lew told Owl· head, "Keep on due north and you'll find a tank for your night camp. Raise a smoke to lead us in." He rode over to Joy's wagon seat. She had on a white muslin dress and one of Steve's broad-brimmed hats. But the sun had burned her, and she looked tired and hot. She smiled u~ at him and yet she couldn't hide what he knew. The wagon had no springs. Jolting along this rough ground, she was taking even more punishment than a man in his saddle. "All nght?" he asked. "I'll. get used to it," she said .

HloooarL THE DIABETIC Now that it is known that the great majority of diabetics can live for many years, that by watching their diet many with a tendency to diabetes may never need to use insulin, and that diabetes can often be prevent· ed by not allowing oneself to become overweight, it might be thought that we would not hearmuch more about diabetes. As a matter of fact, the number of diabetics is not deDr. Barton creasing because there are still many individuals overeating and underexercising so that some words of advice from Dr. E. P. Joslin, Boston, should be carefully considered at this time. Dr. Joslin has been the outstanding United States authority on diabetes for many years. Last February he gave the Second Me· morial Banting lecture at the Univcorsity of Toronto, and stated: "The creation of an individual responsibility in the diabetic has been and remains the keynote of treat· ment. If the diabetic is not imbued with the necessity, the desire, and the duty to maintain his health, there is little that a doctor can do for him. To a certain degree I welcome this fact because it will mean that the diabetics who live are the desirable diabetics, the good citizens. To a large degree doctors and nurses can do much for careless, ·ig· norant and despondent diabetics but over and above all, the development of the soul of the diabetic and his zeal to be helpful goes along with the treatment of the body." The diabetic is not accepted for any form of war service, as the need for special diets and the seriousness of even slight injuries may cause them to be a liability instead of an asset, but it is pointed out that he can obtain enough food ot the kinds he requires-fats and meatsif he does a little thinking and planning. For each ounce of meat he lac!ts to make up his needs he can substitute fish, cheese, nuts, or an egg, and fowl. "Moreover, a diabetic should be able among his friends to exchange his sugar ration for a fat r11tion." From Dr. Joslin's many cases and from figures of insurance companies, diabetics are "superior" people, more intelligent than the average citizen. They will be needed for present and future planning. • • • Endurance to Pain Varies in Individuals ROBBERY UNDER DIFFICULTIES ("Thieves Loot 0. P. A. Offices"-head. line.)

St. Paul island, about 14 miles in length, St. George island, 12 miles long, and Sea Lion rock, a small islet adjacent to St. Paul, are the breeding grounds of the North American or Alaskan fur-seal herd, which embraces approximately 80 per cent of the fur seals of the wo~d. The annual computation made in 1941 indicated 2,338,000 animals in the herd. Each year the herd goes to the Pribilof group and there the young are born and spend the first few months of their existence. During the remainder of the year there occurs the annual migration which takes some of the animals as far south as the latitude of Southern California, about 3,000 miles from their summer home. In the annual migration northward, the breeding bulls are the first to reach the islands in the spring where they await the arrival of the females. The fur-sealing operations occur chiefly in June and July. At that time the family groups or harems occupy the rookeries upon which generally only breeding seals and pups are found. Near these rookeries are the so-called hauling grounds whe;re the unattar-hed bulls and immature males, r • nlors, congregate. Mr. and Mr3.

She has earned laurels at that job since the day Lll 1940 when Boston socialite Beatrice Ayer, of the American Woolen company Ayers, married a hell· for-leather young cavalry lieutenant. Beatrice Ayer Patton likes the army. In no other career except the ministry, she says, can a wife be so helpful. When her bright-eyed roaring general used to give his men those famous pep talks, she listened OD the sidelines to report reactions. At dinner parties she sometimes reads aloud from the poems the general so surprisingly writes. She herself had authored a best-selling novel, "Blood of the Sharks," and a volume of HawaUan legends. She and the reneral like to cruise in their 60-foot schooner tbe If and When. They like to ride; their old farmhouse at Hamilton, Mass., is full of borse show ribbons.

And this is true even though be has reduced all industry, eliminated many non-essential plants and put enough Australians to equal 14,000,000 Americans on a popuJa'tion basis into direct war work. When the First World war started, Dedman was studying at Edinburg university, and figured to teach engineering. He got to Gallipoli, Egypt, Iraq, India, France, was wounded, invented a rifle grenade, won a captaincy, and afterward shipped to Australia figuring to be a farmer. But shortly he was in politics up to his neck. He organ· ized the milk producers of Victoria, became a leading Laborite and a member of parliament.

Cutting off our rubber supply in the :Pacific didA't take us out of the war-or eveD slow us up. For Government. the Rubber Director, the rubber industry. and. the petroleum, chemical, and alcohol industries pooled their patents and ideas, worked together, and accomplished the seemingly impossible. Today, there is no shadow of a doubt that our planell will continue to fly, our ships to sail, our tanks to roll. For America now has nearly enough rubber to meet our essential needs! The American people saw the new synthetic rubber plants spring up like mushrooms. They heard of large-scale production of synthetic rubber. And they applauded. Unfortunately, they alao jumped to the conclmion that they oould .dop worrying about tire3! It is true that the RUBBER supply crisis is past. But the long-expected TIRE shortage is with us! ..But,.. you may say, "how can this be when thou- l&llds of tons of Government synthetic rubber are being made ••• when such a tremendous tonnage of rubber products is being turned out. as well as more airplane and truck tires than ever before.,. One reason is that-as the Baruch Committee foreaaw-few tires could be manufactured until our synthetic rubber supply was well, on the war. This resulted in millions of tires going out of use at a tune when there were no replacements. Meanwhile, tires left in service have less mileage in them, and prewar inventories are gone. Another reason is that our military needs are far 1reater than anyone anticipated. Also, the rubber companies are using a lot of their machinery and manpower to tum out life rafts, bullet-sealing fuel tanks, and hundreds of other urgently-needed army and navy products, In addition to tires. And you should know that half of today's requirements are for large-size, heavy-duty bus, truck, artillery. airplane, and combat tires, requiring much more labor and materials than peacetime products. Finally, the tire industry, like every industry today, Ia feeling the manpower shortage, and there just aren't enough hands for the job. These problems will be overcome when our enemies are overcome. Meanwhile, we want to put our cards face up on the table. We've told you frankly why there is a serious tire ahortage. Now we want you, and every other American who owns a set of tires, to know that thiq country's transportation system can still suffer a serious blow •.. unless you make it you!' personal duty to take care of the tires yo11 now own. Do no unnecessary driving. Live up to the Government regulation-don't exceed 85 miles an hour. Keep your tires inflated up to recommended pressure, and check them every week. Avoid hitting holes in the road, or bruising your tires on curbs or stones. Don't start or stop suddenly. Slow down for sharp comers. See that your wheels and axles are in line. Switch your tires from wheel to wheel every five thousand miles, and have them inspected regularly for removal of foreign objects and repair of cuts. And .. ,. most important of all ••• recap your tires as soon as they become smooth. HOW GOOD ARE PASSENGER CAR TIRES OF SYNTHETIC RUBBER? It may be a long time before all civilians can get synthetic rubber tires. Meanwhile, if you should be one of the few who do get them, :~~ou will want this information; Synthetic rubber tires for passenger cars are good tires, and will give you satisfactory service if you take care of them. ).'olJ. should not think of synthetic rubber tires as imP,.oved tires . •.. but as..emergency tires. And remember that they have not yet had time to prove what they can do. It is beside the point to theorize on how they would react to the phenomenally high speeds of prewar days. Every patriotic American knows that tire treads . . . aU tire treads . •• wear out faster at high speeds, and so drives at today's recommended speed of 35 miles an hour. As time goes on, we will learn more about the effects of under-inflation of rough roads, and of other abusell. They damage all tires. Indications are that they do p:<oportionately more harm to synthetic rubber tires. Meanwhile, all tires are rationed to you in trust for the nation, and it is your duty to take every possible care of them, to avoid misuse and prevent abuse. As experience teaches us more and more about synthetic rubber tires, we will pass the information along to you. Meantime, play safe Be careful! If you use synthetic rubber tubes, be sure tney are properly installed. They should be put into the tire, then inflated, deflated, and inflated again. And they should never be mounted on rusty rims . TRUCK AND BUS TIRES ARE A DIFFERENT STORY Truck and bus tires, being larger and heavier, generate more heat. They are given long, hard usage on all kiDde of highways. They are all too frequently ove.doaded. Frankly, \oday's synthetic rubber b1,15 aud truck tire. will not stand the abuse that prewar tires would stand, especially overloading. Progress is being made daily-but overloading which would have cW.maged a prewar tire C&D r11in today's synthetic tire. The Tire Industry Is doing Its utmost to aolve the serious problem of providing the nation'• trucks and buses with satisfactory tires in aufti• clent quantities. But until this problem is solved, a dangerous threat exists to America's most vital transportation. Therefore, while treads of present truck and bus tires are immensely important ... the carcasses of these tires !taN a value be'!Jond all price to America, and to America's truck and bus operators! Unless tires now in use are made to last, these two essential services will almost certainly break down I These tires ••• every one of them •• : must be recapped the in.stant the tread wears smooth ••• before any damoge is done to the carcass• They must be recapped not once, but again and again! High speeds must be done away with ••• espeCially on hot roads. Overloads must be avoided. Tires must be properly inflated at aU dtnes. The responsibility to take care of thelle tirell ••• to make them last as long as pq~ible •.• is a vital necessityl It mu.St be shouldered by all operators, by all drivers, by aU garage men I No American can fail to heed this warning! The situation is so serious that it is recognized in a new tire war• ranty. But the real job is to conserve all tirer now in Ule! 'With conditions as tney are, and synthetic rubber iD its present stage of development, a new tire warranty hu become necessary and has been adopted. It applies to aU tires. Under its terms, injuries such as bruises, body breaks, cuts, snags, and heat fn.ilures as well as trea.d wear are not subject to adjustment consideration. Nor are injuries or failures wU.icil result from improper tire care or misuse or abuse. Thi.!J includes failure as a resnit of overload, excess speed improper inflation, or other non-defective conditions.

Mushrooms, rich in minerals and the B complex vitamins, combine with beef and give a tasty, nutritionally satisfying casserole. One of the common ways of making meat points stretch their furthest is the habit of buying a large piece of meat and making it do for several meals. In this way, the family can have the pleasure of a roast from a large- piece of meat done to succulence, then the homemaker can easily fashion meat dishes for at least 2 or 3 meals out of that which is left. Unfortunately foods do not taste as good the second day as the first. Flave:rs seem to fall asleep, the me at becomes dry and insipid, and the family becomes tired of what they sniffingly refer to as leftovers. This needn't be the case if you spend a little time and effort waking up the leftovers and making them just as appetizing as the food in its first form. Chicken is first-rate when served in these ways: •country Chicken Loaf. (Serves 6) 2 cops diced cooked chicken ¥2 cup chopped cooked carrots 1 cup cooked peas ¥2 cup chopped celery 1 tablespoon minced pepper 1 cup bread crumbs liz cup milk 2 egg yolks, beaten 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 teaspoon onion juice 1 teaspoon salt Y!l teaspoon pepper Force chicken, carrots and peas through a food chopper.

Pour over chicken ant:l bake at once in moderate (350-degree) oven. Serve from baking dish with gravy. Meat leftovers, even if they are few, can give a rich meaty taste if they're used in this way: Meat and Rice au Gratin. (Serves 6) 2 cops leftover meat, diced 1\filk or soup stock 2 cups boiled rice 2 tablespoons fat ¥2 cup grated cheese 1 teaspoon salt ¥s teaspoon pepper Cut meat into small piec~s and moisten with stock or milk. Spread Lynn Says: Fats Are Important: Fats produce glycerine needed to make munitions. Take home all fat and bone trimmings you pay for with your meat. Fats that you don't use will be bought by some markets. Accumulated sausage and bacon fat can be used for frying potatoes, eggs, fish, hash, chicken, or even in waffles, cornbread or gravy. Fats from roasts, chops and steaks can be clarified by heating 4 slices of potato with 1 quart of fat over low heat until fat bubbles. Strain through several thicknesses of cheesecloth and store in light-proof, tightly covered container. Use this clarified fat for making spice and chocolate cakes and cookies. . ------------------------------------------------- A bit of braised chicken garnished with buttered carrots, potato balls and celery leaves won't be a drain on points but will boost your menus. Recent research reveals that mushrooms have a mineral content somewhat higher than many other vegetables and fruits. Potassium and phosphorus are available along with appreciable amounts of copper and iron. Mushrooms are also one of the best plant sources of the B complex vitamins. Used to extend meats, mushrooms are not only nutritionally satisfying, but they can add zest and flavor even to the simplest of foods: Casserole of Beef and Mushrooms. (Serves 6) 1llz to 2 pounds short ribs of beef Floor, seasoned with salt and pepper ~ teaspoon thyme 1 tablespoon vinegar 1 cup water 2 stalks celery, chopped 6 scallions 1 8-ounce can mushrooms 1 small onion sliced 2 to 3 carrots, sliced 3 medium-sized potatoes, quartered Cut short ribs in individual squares and flour them. Brown in a small amount of fat in heavy skillet. Remove to casserole. Add sliced onion, vinegar, thyme, water and drippings in skillet, stirring until well blended; pour over meat.

It is moldy and has a musty odor. There is no basement under the house; the floor is 21h feet from the g!'ound. What should we do about the moldiness? I Answer: The moldiness comes from the earth under the floor. If a concrete floor .in the basem~nt is out of the q';lestwn, the be~t thmg to do is t? pa~nt . the unders1de of t~e floor Wlth hqu1d tar or as~hal~. meluding the ~earns.

I should like to paint the kitchen white. What would you suggest for the first coat? Answer: Clean the wood and see that it is smooth, and then apply a first coat of enamel undercoater or flat paint thinned with a pint of raw linseed oil to the gallon of paint. After the first coat is dry, put on a second coat of undercoater or flat paint. When dry, smooth the surface by rubbing lightly with No. 000 sandpaper.

After a slwrt time the filling falls out. What can you suggest? Answer: When using cement, always wet down the old surfaces with water before putting the patching cement in place. After the hole has been filled, do not use th<! hot-water line until the cement has hardened; otherwise, the hellt in the pipe will dry out the cement before it has become set. Six to eight hours should be allowed. • • • Closed Rouse Question: When closing our country house, should we leave the oil burner running or shut it off? There would be only occasional attention given to it. Answer: When a house is to be left unoccupied for a long time with little or no inspection, the oil burner should be shut off. It should not be allowed to operate without frequent attention. It also is a waste of fuel to heat a vacant house. • • • Stained Chair Back Question: A chair upholstered in flowered silk was stained on the back by perspiration, which left a big round mark.

One of the things which impressed me greatly as r heard the secretary in the course of the hour-long meeting, telling us sidelights on his remarkable experience, was the way one word which he had used in his talk with me kept cropping up again and "'gain. It was the word "understanding." He applied it to personal relationships and exchanges between the members of the tripartite meeting and to the whole discussion and the decisions which grew out of it. It seemed to be a case of progressive understanding. In our first conversation, the secretary, indicating the papers which covered his great desk, said they all dealt with Russia. I did not know then that there was to be a Moscow meeting. And he made the point with considerable emphasis, that there was so much suspicion on the part of persons discussing the Russian situation that it was exceedingly hard to work toward an agreement. RAILROAD WAGES: In Congress' Lap As congress considered a resolution to grant non-operating railroad employees an eight cents an hour wage increase, it was announced railroad employment in mid-October of 1943 was 4 per cent over the same period last year, but still 100,000 short of needs.

It also was revealed that the army had saved over 13 billion dollars out of 127 billkn dollars appropriated for its use, with economies of over 10 billion dollars effected by curtailment of the armament, equipment and airplane programs. RUSSIA: Cut Nazi Railroads Two important railroads in Russia linking German armies of the north with those of the soutb, and running westward into the big pre-war Polish cities of Warsaw and Lwow, were cut by the Red armies. As the Russian forces severed these major German arteries, Nazi forces launched a strong counterattack against the Reds in the vicinity of these rail lines, gaining some ground. But here, as further to the south where the Germans claimed 500,000 Russians were hammering them above Krivoi Rog, the Nazi positions still were in a fluid state. To the north, the Reds pecked at the Nazi base of Gomel, serving as the southern anchor of their Baltic line which is hinged on Finland. Ten classes of reservists in the Baltic states have been called to military service by the Nazis. SOUTHWEST PACIFIC: Action Spreads With U. S .. forces being strengthened on Bougainville for a major drive against the 40,000 Japs reportedly defending their last stronghold in the Solomons, Liberator bombers lashed against the enemy's tiny Gilbert and Marshall Island possessions, standing out like pesky little thorns along our supply routes to the battle areas. Warding off Jap blows from the air, U. S. warships moved up Bougainville's west coast to pound the enemy's big airplane base of Buka. Absence of strong elements of the Japanese fleet in the advanced ba~ tie zone suggested that the enemy was concentrating his formidable naval force on protection of his 1,500 mile sea lane running from Japan proper to the rich islands south. In New Guinea, Australian forces began moving northward from Finschhafen toward the Jap strongholds of Madang and Wewak, from which the enemy's aerial units have been striking at the Allied bases. While Undersecretary of War Robert Patterson announced the war department was giving serious study to peacetime disposal of its holdings of 43,181,183 acres of land, it was revealed the federal government owned 383,600,533 acres. Federal land holdings were equal in size to the combined areas of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ohio, Alabama, Kentucky and Indiana. Adding to the federal government's vast land holdings, the army and navy purchased 15 hotels at a cost of $15,000,000. Some of these hotels have been returned to private ownership, like the Stevens in Chicago, bought for $5,528,101 and sold for Lend-Lease Foods OIL: Seek New Wells With a projected goal of 24,000 new oil wells in 1944, prospects loomed for increased activity in the Rocky Mountain states. Of the 24,000 new oil wells, 5,000 are to be exploratory and the remaining 19,000 development projects. The immense Powder river basin in the northeastern section of Wyoming and southeastern section of Montana might prove the focal point of operations. Congressional action in reducing royalties on discoveries on public domain to a flat 12.5 per cent for the duration and 10 years afterward furnishes incentive for action in the Rocky mountain region. Lend-lease food shipments abroad equal one-eighth of the U. S. supply, the Foreign Economic administration revealed. Civilians are receiving three-fourths of the production. Figures show that in the first nine months of this year, lend-lease food shipments include 3.2 per cent of total milk products; 10.6 per cent of dried eggs; 13.9 per cent of edible oils and fats; and 21.2 per cent of canned fish. Shipments of canned fruits and juices equal 2.5 per cent of total supply; dried fruits, 21.1 per cent; canned vegetables, 1 per cent; dried beans 10.3 per cent; dried peas, 14.2 per cent; corn and corn products, 0.1 per cent; wheat and wheat products, 0.9 per cent; and butter, 2.5 per cent. WAR GARDENS: HIGHLIGHTS. WAR PRODUCTION: The peak demand in war production has been passed, Harry Moulton, president of the Brookings Institute, recently told the American Finance conference in Washingtc.:1. He said that stocks of raw ma.erials have become entirely adequate, and even excessive in some cases. More and more cancellations of war goods contracts are coming, he predicted. in the week'• newa ELECTRIC ffiONS: Two million electric flatirons will be manufactured and sold next year, if the WPB will release materials. Arthur Whiteside, vice chairman of WPB in charge of civilian needs, has requested that enough metal and other material be allowed to make 500,000 irons in the first quarter of 1944. About three million irons were sold annually, before the war. Victory gardeners will be expected to raise at least 25 per cent more next year than this, delegates to the National Victory Garden Institute convention resolved. They met in Chicago. Other resolutions a:-;k for an increased allowance of about 33 per cent from the WPB on tools, fertilizer and insecticides, and for orders permitting garden clubs to buy 600,000 pressure cookers for canning.

Open Di8cuaaion monarch, Britain; one with a communistic form of government, Rus· sia; and one, a democratic republic, the United States. The test came in Italy. After the parleys at Moscow, the AMG was limited in its functions, taking over only the districts nearest the front. An Allied military commission was formed which is making maximum use of the local native civilian officials. Italian Government But what about the government which the Allies would accept as satisfactorily representing the will of the Italian people? Surely Britain would demand that monarchy be given a chance to remain in power. Surely Russia would have no traffic with kings a'nd would instead demand a strong left-wing set-up. The supposed American compromise was a temporary regency, that, is, a liberal regent such as Count Carlo Sforza who was in exile from the Fascist regime and who left America shortly after the surrender of Italy. The little son of the crown prince would remain the symbolic head of the state. Many said that neither Russia nor Britain would accept this suggestion. However, although no definite step has been taken, semi-official sources have indicated that when Rome is recaptured and Marshal Badoglio, now premier, steps out, there will be virtual agreement on the part of the three victor nations on the American compromise. All that remains will be an agreement on the part of the Italian people. Even if the lat· ter is not achieved, there is evidence enough already of tripartite compromise and unity to seem to confirm the success of the Mission to Moscow. Then, in his talk on his return, he repeated this thought, saying that many people, because of their deep prejudices, had made it hard to bring about an understanding between the three nations. He said that when he left for Moscow, he felt that much of the misunderstanding was due to misinformation which all the parties shared concerning the others.

CHAPTER V Clay Manning and Ed Splann followed the galloping animal in to the nearest fire, where Splann caught his forelegs in a loop and threw him expertly. This huge bearded fellow was a cow hand all right, Lew admitted. But there was something else. Watching, while the hot Cross T iron was run on the steer's shoulder, he felt again the strain of Clay Manning's unnatural sUence, sitting his horse there close saying nothing. He turned his gaze up the valley and saw Tom Arnold coming from the creek-bottom trees and paused then with his eyes fixed upon the pole fences of the dipping chute, like two wide-open arms reaching out for an eighth of a mile. Then Clay Manning said idly, "What took you to the rims this morning?" "The view," he said, his eyes still speculating on the dipping chutes. "Always did like it from up there." "That all?" Clay's voice was roughly edged. "I'd like to know." "Clay," he said, "you've got noth· ing against me. You don't like my coming back to be trail boss for Tom, sure. But it's only because trailing has been my business these years. You'll still be Tom's foreman and segundo on this trip. If the Cross T ever gets north, Clay, we'll have to work together. That's a fact." He saw his plea have a strange effect in the blue eyes, troubling tl1em with a hounded look. And it seemed to bring Clay out into the open for an instant. Bitterly he said, "Lew, there's more happened here than you know. I can' t mAke any promises." He closed his mouth on that. "All right," Lew accepted. "There's something I do know. From the rims I could see herds going north while we're not even ready. There's a faster wa!' to do this branding if you want to try. Trick I saw worked last year." "How's that?" "Use the dipping chute. Roping's too slow. We could run this whole bun<::h through by dark tonight." Ed Splann had flipped his loop free from the branded steer and had turned toward ther.~ He brought his horse to a stop close beside Clay's in time to hear this last talk. He leaned forward in his saddle. "What kind of schoolboy game is that? What's the matter, Burnet, can't you use a rope?" Lew looked at him steadily, saying nothing. Somehow in this man he saw a trouble center on the Cross T. There was a surly sureness about him, more than the arrogance of brute strength. He wondered again why Clay would tolerate his sort in the crew. Then, as if made more bold and s ure by that silence, Splann goaded, ''Leave him try his schoolboy trick! Come on, Clay." Suddenly this early morning's calm decision to keep things running without trouble was gone. He understood that he was being ribbed into a fight. It was what Splann wanted, a showdown. It might as well come now as later. He swung his horse to get Clay from between them. But in that siime instant, incredibly fast, a gun was in the man's right fist. There was no smokiness in his eyes now. They were only a cold, hard gray, unblinking. "Now you," he began, but Clay's .quick warning cut him off. "Careful, Ed! Some body's coming!" It was Tom Arnold pounding toward them, his horse flung forward m a rush that swept along a dust .cloud when he stopped. "What the hell's going on here?" He glared at Splann's drawn gun. With a hot violence unlike him in a crisis he blazed, "Clay, is this all you've got to do?" He swung his angry stare. "Lew, what's wrong?" "Little argument, Tom. Nothing much." ''Well! What about?" "Difference of opinion mostly. Had an idea we could hurry up this branding by using your dipping .chute. You build your fires alongside, push the animals through and run U1e iron on them as they pass. I've seen it work." Arnold considered it, the anger golng out of him. "Well, Clay," he asked, "what's the objection?" "Not my method, that's all." "Maybe not. But if Lew's seen it work let's give it a try. Anything tu make up time." Clay hes itated. Beside him, Splann mo,•ed his horse closer. There was e little silence . Then Clay shook h1s head. "Tom, I'll tell you. If you want tn '3\vitch forem::~n rieht now instead of on the tr&il that suits me." Tom Arnold spoke quietly. "There's no call for cussedness, Clay, that I can see. But it's your choice. Lew, take the job." He swung his back to them and rode off. Clay Manning turned in his saddle. Something had happened to him in that moment of giving up his leadership of the Cross T. There was a grimness added to him that had not been there before. Without temper he said, "Lew, I'm going north with thJs herd for a reason that you understand. But not as your segundo. Either you or I'll end up in full charge." Beside him, suddenly, Splann kicked their two horses forward. "Come on, Clay, come on!" Like any captain leading an army troop, a trail boss needed a lieuten· ant, his segundo. And since Clay had refused Lew hunted up one man in the Cross T that he could count on absolutely. When Rebel John Quarternight's white head appeared among those riders darting in and out of the dust cloud he rode over and waved him to a stop. "John," he said, "I've taken over the herd. We're going to push this branding along." He explained his way and added, grinning with the strong affection that he had for this man, "No argu· ment now. I've heard it. I'll take no talk from a pullet like you I" It was John Quarternight who had taught him all he knew about cattle, most of what he knew about mena straight-backed, sturdy old war· rior, close to seventy now, with de- A quietness came over him and there was nothing that Lew wanted to say. ceivingly mild blue eyes and a drooping mustache turned yellow by the sun. His full life went into the past as far as the war for Texas independence, up through the Re· bellion and after that the Apache days. He chuckled. "No, got no argument. I'm beginnin' to think maybe we'd see Ogallala next Christmas! It's plain disgraceful pokin' irons at cows through a fence. But we'll give her a try." He swung his horse. "Build your fires, son. I'll tell the boys." Lew's wave brought Quarternight around to him. He yelled above the rattle of horns slashing at the fence logs and the bellowing din: "Takes two hands for this, John!" The old man stepped down be· side him and grabbed a hot iron. shaped like a cross, with another bar on top to make the T. They worked from opposite ends of the penned steers, meeting in the middle. It was a choking job. Cotton· wood made clouds of smoke. The rancid odor of singed hide filled the air. Over them a midday sun poured down a breathless heat. But the longhorns were moving, ten by t en in endless parade. In half an hour's time Lew waved Joe Wheat and Ash Brownstone down to relieve himself and Quarternight. Arnold jerked a nod at the work. He looked as if a heavy weight had been lifted from him. There was humor in him again. "Man's never too old,'.' he said, "to learn a new wrinkle! You'll have this job done by dark." A quietne:.;;s came over him a nd there was nothing that L ew wanted to say. Then Arnold said strongly, "Well, no complaint! A man loves a woman, raises a family and builds a ranch- that about completes the account, I gue:ss." He turned back and l aid the book on top of others in a wooden box. "Only one more thing I'd like to see. There's a paper in this, signed and legal. I'm storing the box in Joy's wagon. Not r.rowding fate any, but things hap· pen. If that comes to me we reach Ogallala you look book." Time had come to set the guard. Night shadows had slid like a blanket off the high rimrock. Out beyond the firelight four thousand longhorns made a black pool, watered and contented now, ready to bed down. Lew dropped his tin plate and cup into Owl-Head's wreck pan. He un· derstood well enough that trail custom allowed a crew to draw for their turns at night riding. First watch from eight until eleven was always the best choice. No man wanted to break his sleep in the middle and so hated the second guard from eleven until two. From two u!ltil dawn was only a little better, the whole day being ahead then with these earJy.morning hours tacked on. But for his own reason this trip he had decided to set the watch de· liberately. He wanted Clay and Splann and Steve in separate guards. He made a cigarette in brown corn shuck paper and stooped for a burning stick end. With the light up close he looked across at lank Joe Wheat. "Joe," he said, "I'm picking you to lead the first watch." All of the faces ringed around the fire lifted toward him. There was a tight silence. Then Ed Splann, his huge shape sprawled off, half hidden, growled out, "How about lettin' us cut cards for turns, Mister Boss? Ain't that thco usual caper? Cut for choice and choose our own watchmates, that's what." Then Lew said, "Well, Clay, we might as well understand something at the start. You've been a fore· man long enough to know what the job means. Plenty of times come along when you don't stop to explain your orders. I don't intend to. Like the way I'm setting thilil guard." He brought his eyes around the ring of faces and stopped on Splann's surly stare. "If anyone here can' t take my say-so he'd better quit right now.'' He held that stare for a moment, saw its cold, hard steeliness and understood what he saw. "All right," he said and turned again to Wheat. "Joe, you'll take first guard with Clay and Neal Good. I'll take second; Steve, I want you to ride with me, you and John. That leaves the tag end for you, Ash, with Charley Storms and Ed Splann." Ash Brownstone, Quarternight and Joe Wheat were the old men of thilJ crew, all of them dependable. Thus he had one trusted hand in each of the three guards. "I'm going in to the house, Lew," Steve said, and looked off some· where before he asked, "You rid·· ing j.n?" Lew shook his head idly. "No, guess not." Yet he watched the quick turn of Steve's shoulders with a frowning interest. And afterward, when he heard his horse race off toward the creek woods, he said quietly to John Quarternight, "Wouldn't hurt to stand double guard for a little while. Let's ride." Mounted, he held to the darkness, keeping c}ear of the longhorns, and then drew to a halt off on the barren, empty plain. He saw old Rebel John sitting up high in his saddle, smelling the wind for trouble, and said, "Wait." It wasr.'t long. Moving slowly, a horse circled out from the creek growth, shielded by the dark. Later its hoofbeats struck up a faster pace, aiming for the short row of lights that was Ox Bow town, five miles away. Angry and bitter with this knowledge that Steve was making a sneak, L ew sat rigid, listening, until Qual ternight said, "That boy never could cover his tracks!" "He's got no good business in town, John-not now." Off in the east the first lonely gray of dawn was spreading upward from the plains.

After the noon meal Lew told Owl· head, "Keep on due north and you'll find a tank for your night camp. Raise a smoke to lead us in." He rode over to Joy's wagon seat. She had on a white muslin dress and one of Steve's broad-brimmed hats. But the sun had burned her, and she looked tired and hot. She smiled u~ at him and yet she couldn't hide what he knew. The wagon had no springs. Jolting along this rough ground, she was taking even more punishment than a man in his saddle. "All nght?" he asked. "I'll. get used to it," she said .

HloooarL THE DIABETIC Now that it is known that the great majority of diabetics can live for many years, that by watching their diet many with a tendency to diabetes may never need to use insulin, and that diabetes can often be prevent· ed by not allowing oneself to become overweight, it might be thought that we would not hearmuch more about diabetes. As a matter of fact, the number of diabetics is not deDr. Barton creasing because there are still many individuals overeating and underexercising so that some words of advice from Dr. E. P. Joslin, Boston, should be carefully considered at this time. Dr. Joslin has been the outstanding United States authority on diabetes for many years. Last February he gave the Second Me· morial Banting lecture at the Univcorsity of Toronto, and stated: "The creation of an individual responsibility in the diabetic has been and remains the keynote of treat· ment. If the diabetic is not imbued with the necessity, the desire, and the duty to maintain his health, there is little that a doctor can do for him. To a certain degree I welcome this fact because it will mean that the diabetics who live are the desirable diabetics, the good citizens. To a large degree doctors and nurses can do much for careless, ·ig· norant and despondent diabetics but over and above all, the development of the soul of the diabetic and his zeal to be helpful goes along with the treatment of the body." The diabetic is not accepted for any form of war service, as the need for special diets and the seriousness of even slight injuries may cause them to be a liability instead of an asset, but it is pointed out that he can obtain enough food ot the kinds he requires-fats and meatsif he does a little thinking and planning. For each ounce of meat he lac!ts to make up his needs he can substitute fish, cheese, nuts, or an egg, and fowl. "Moreover, a diabetic should be able among his friends to exchange his sugar ration for a fat r11tion." From Dr. Joslin's many cases and from figures of insurance companies, diabetics are "superior" people, more intelligent than the average citizen. They will be needed for present and future planning. • • • Endurance to Pain Varies in Individuals ROBBERY UNDER DIFFICULTIES ("Thieves Loot 0. P. A. Offices"-head. line.)

St. Paul island, about 14 miles in length, St. George island, 12 miles long, and Sea Lion rock, a small islet adjacent to St. Paul, are the breeding grounds of the North American or Alaskan fur-seal herd, which embraces approximately 80 per cent of the fur seals of the wo~d. The annual computation made in 1941 indicated 2,338,000 animals in the herd. Each year the herd goes to the Pribilof group and there the young are born and spend the first few months of their existence. During the remainder of the year there occurs the annual migration which takes some of the animals as far south as the latitude of Southern California, about 3,000 miles from their summer home. In the annual migration northward, the breeding bulls are the first to reach the islands in the spring where they await the arrival of the females. The fur-sealing operations occur chiefly in June and July. At that time the family groups or harems occupy the rookeries upon which generally only breeding seals and pups are found. Near these rookeries are the so-called hauling grounds whe;re the unattar-hed bulls and immature males, r • nlors, congregate. Mr. and Mr3.

By driving to the Baltic, the Reds would split the Germans' northern armies from those of the south. and also give them a base from which to attack enemy shipping making use of the sea to supply its armies in the area. In the Ukraine, both sides gave ground grudgingly under heavy blcws. The Nazis pressed forward toward picturesque and domed KiP.V, while the Reds pounded out gains, farther to the south in the Dnieper bend.

By BAUKHAGE NewJ • • • TRANSPORTATION: Parts Needed SOUTHWEST PACIFIC: New Landing One day after U. S. bombers had dumped 350 tons of explosives on Arawe on New Britain island, U. S. warships moved shoreward to the enemy base and pumped big shells into the defenses, even as planes returned to assist in the bombard· ment. After this terrific crescendo, U. S. doughboys swarmed ashore to establish a beachhead on this "trategic island, center of Japanese shipping for supplying its embattled forces on New Guinea and Bougainville. By landing on Arawe, U. S. forces drove a wedge into Jap positions on Cape Gloucester to the west and Gasmata to the east, where the enemy has established airfields to help cover the barge operations with which he feeds supplies to his troops ih this area by traveling along the jungle shorelines by night. While the U. S. stormed Arawe, heavy bombers continued to smack the Marshalls, small Jap island holdings in the central Pacific. RAILROADS: Strike Called ITALY: Action in Air Connecting link between Germany and Italy, Europe's historic Brenner pass was pounded by waves of I U. S. bombers, seeking to disrl!pt the rail lines feeding Nazi arm1es to the south. By striking at the pass, the bombers countered a successful Nazi air raid on the southeastern Italian port of Bari, in which 30 German planes whizzed in at low level and sank 17 Allied cargo vessels lying at anchor in the harbor. . . On the ground, U. S. and Br1tJsh troops clambered forward over mountainous country toward Rome in sleety weather. Fighting bitterly from strong defenses in the hills, and throwing armored for~ations into action on the level plams, the Nazis succeeded in slowing Allied advances. CONGRESS: Tax Bill Tacking on an additional 144 million dollars, the senate finance committee approved a new 2 billion, 284 million dollar tax bill which, if passed by congress, will boost U. S. revenues to 43 billion dollars yearly. Written under Sen. Walter George's chairmanship, the senate bill requires payment of the 3 per cent Victory tax Sen. George by everybody with income over $~'24 a year, and raises levies on amusements, travel, alcoholic beverages, cosmetics, furs, luggage, toilet articles and other luxuries. Also included in the bill was a provision requiring labor organizations and farm co-operatives· to file financial s;ta tements annually. With 97.7 p.er cent of the operating railroad union members voting to strike to enforce their demands for higher wages and with th1l walkout date set for December 30, the government acted quickly to prevent transportation interruption. Said spokesmen for the 350,000 trainmen, firemen, enginemen, engineers, conductors and switchmen who have demanded a 30 per cent wage increase with a minimum boost of $3 daily: "It is a strike against inflation ior the privileged few and deflation for the many." To meet the crisis which was provoked by the unions' rejection of an emergency board's award of a 32cents a day increase, the government's national mediation board summoned both union and rail officials ·to meet to settle d ifferences.

Moscow paved the way. Teheran sealed the covenants. It killed once and for all the controversy over the "second front" and struck the cadence that brought the Allies marching in step toward victory. How was this accomplished? By convincing Russia that it was not the plot of the capitalistic nations to let her bleed white on the battlefields so that she could be throttled in the postwar world.

HIGHLIGHTS. and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C . The flag is flying over the White House again, a real symbol, no longer a ruse de guerre. After the past few weeks, it is a relief to know it really means that the President is there-not an attempt to hide his absence from the enemy. Already the nervous bulletins, announcing the forbidden truths or the invented canards as to the whereabouts of the Allied leaders, are forgotten in the more instant interest in the happenings on the battle fronts -on the home front. Washington has had time to ponder on America's new leadership in world affairs. Perhaps that toast offered by Premier Stalin to A1nerican war production without which, he said, the war could not have been won by the Allies, brought the truth home. America is emerging out of this holocaust as the world's greatest power. And for the first time in history, the world's greatest power is the nation whose people are least prepared, least experienced, least anxious for world leadership. There is a chance that we may let it go by default. Washington has assayed pretty well by this time the fruits of the Moscow conference, the Cairo conference with Chiang Kai-shek attending; the Teheran meeting; the meeting with Turkey's president. As of Dec6mber 1, 176,045.000 pounds of butter were in cold storage, and other stocks included 177,110.000 pounds of American cheese; 197.382,000 pounds of poultry; 376,· 072,000 pounds of pork; 183,096,000 pounds of beef; 31,074,000 pounds of lamb and mutton, and 1,762,000 cases of eggs.

Slowly he began to overtake the rear that was like a dark wave rolling on in front of him. He had forgotten the storm. If there had been another thunderclap it was drowned by the rattling jar in his ears. A crooked flash close in front of the longhorns was his first warning. Against its white light all of the widespread herd stood out briefly, caught in tossing waves, gone too soon for him to locate any rider. Someone was close before he heard the pounding thud of hoofs. Then the rider was alongside, Jim CHAPTER lX Hope's high young voice yelling, "Lew!" Clay Manning stood up and went "All right," he yelled back.

"It's my guard, Lew. I'm going out. The others needn't come till they're ready." "Plenty of time," he said. "Take it easy." But Clay's huge plunging gait was carrying him on. He got up and followed, urged by a quick, yet unshaped suspicion. "Wait a minute." He caught up off in the decreasing light. There was no heat ln him, only a dull outrage against this man who had so much and was using it so badly. He could still see Joy's look, grave and strange end sweet, promising all that a woman could promise, and yet Clay could go on in his bullheaded secret way surely toward some kind of ruin. "There's four men out now," he said. Moonlight and Splann had not come in. "Why are you going, Clay?" The answer came in a surly growl. "There's a storm blowing up. You -can see that yourself." He could, but that wasn't it. He waited, letting his eyes probe through the dim light and seeing the ruddy face turn more and more strained with its controlled temper. He let his words drop quietly. "Ves. If that was all. What is it?" "What else do you think?" "I think you'd better use your head. Clay, wake up! You haven't cov red your tracks so much.

In the dragging hours their runt became shorter. The rain stopped; a little light began to show his world. It was suddenly as if fatigue had hit the cattle on their bony heads. They seemed to halt between one step and another, with only their panting breath rising and falling over the dark mass. He let them rest while daylight came on, until he could estimate four or five hundred in this bunch. They were as gaunt as wolves from the night's run. Tongues lolled and their big eyes bulged in their sock· ets. It would take weeks to get back the pounds they had lost in these few hours.

The longhorns' run had taken them far west, and it was not until after two hours of steady, speechless riding that he saw Owl-Head Jackson's camp smoke lift from the junction of the river and its tributary cr<'ek. He searched along the creek's growth for the trampled part whP.re the herd could cross. Something halted his drifting gaze. He brought it back. An icy coldness crept ro•, er his skin. "John," he said and pointed, "T' d better go look." It was a riderless horse. Even from halt a mile off he knew by the way the animal was standing, crook· edly, with a tired patience, that it had broken a leg. Closer, he saw the saddle under its belly. Its heod raised a little as he approached but dropped" again. He drew his gun and put the muzzle close behind one pointed ear and felt sick as he pulled the trigger. Dragging tracks led toward the creek. He followed them, steeled against a thing he had looked upon before and yet chilled even by those memories. His shot had brought two riders starting out of the dist11nt river trees near camp. He couldn't tell who they were. Then suddenly his horse snorted, spread its legs and stopped. The trampled swath of creekbottom willow lay beyond the low bank. He looked where the ani· mal's ears pointed and in that first moment felt no shock. All of his senses seemed to have gone dead. In that strangely suspended feeling he turned back, fired his gun in the air and waved the men on from the herd. They loped toward him. When they saw the horse he had shot no one asked for the rider. He said, "It's Tom," and saw their faces, haggard from the night's work, only set a little more. The two from camp were closfO now, Clay and Splann, hurried on b.! his second shot.

I'll go in, Lew, and tell Joy." "No," he said, "not yet." Clay's huge body straightened up in th.e saddle. "Why not?" His voice earned a new power. "There's no use," he said. "Not till afterward. We're too far from civilizatinn to go in for that kind of a burial. It will have to be here, right now. Let Joy have some other memory. Where's Steve?'-' In a little silence, with his question unanswered, he knew something was coming that had been shaped already in his own mind. But he hadn't expected it would come so soon. Th en Clay said, "Steve's in camp. I'm going in. This makes a difference, Lew. A big one. You might as well know that.'' "Not one bit!" He swung his hcrse over close. "What you're figurir.g on hasn't happened. You'll take my orders till it does." An outraged sense turned him as bitterly hard as he had ever felt. "What a time you pick!" He backed off, holding the hot stare of Clay's blue eyes. "John," he said, "you come with me." He flung a last look at Clay. "The rest of you stay here."

BLISTERED PAINT Question: Please reprint the name of the paint remover you have mentioned, and how to use it. I wish to remove some blistered paint. Answer: Trisodium phosphate, three pounds dissolved in a gallon of hot water, makes an excellent paint remover. This chemical is sold at grocery stores under various trade names. It is a coarse white powder that cleans without making a lather when dis15olved in water. There also are commercial paint removers to be had at paint stores.

A shredded wood-fibre blanket insulation was suggested. There is no cellar under the house, but the space there is high enough to get under it. Please advise. Answer: A one-inch thick insulating blanket in the walls, and a stud thickness of insulation in the attic and floor should make the house quite comfortable-provided, of course, there is sufficient heat in the house. It would help greatly to put storm sash on all windows. Before installing the floor insulation, coat the underside of floor with liquid asphalt to keep out dampness. • • • Old Decanter Question: I have an old decanter, the inside of which is spotted (round spots like sanded glass). These spots do not show when wet, but come out when the decanter is dry. I have tried the sand and shredded newspaper methods of cleaning, but without success. Can you suggel)t anything else? Answer: The polish on the glass inside the decanter may have been worn off by the use of gravel for cleaning purposes. If so, there is no way to repolish the surface. As a '.ast resort, you might try cleaning with bird shot in hot, soapy water.

Stir a teaspoonful of paris green into a cupful of syrup or hon~y. After mixing well, spread the ml:x\ure on small pieces of bread or heavy paper, and put the bait where it can easily be found by the wasps, which will eventually die of the polson. Be sure the bait is out of reach of children. Cluster flies and other small insects can be kept out of homes by proper precautions in the autumn. They can squeeze through openings apparently smaller than their bodies. Stuff cracks around windows and screens with cotton to prevent their entrance. A pyrethrum spray will kill or stupefy any of these attic insects. Wet the bodies thoroughly and they will either die or fall to the floor where they may be swept up. In the spring when the insects are anx.Jcus to get out of doors, simply open the attic windows, but be sure to close them again before the pests return in the evening. Tourists Boom American tourists are crowding Mexico buying up everything from "gin and electrical appliances to bobby pins and elastics." Mexico is not feeling the war as acutely as the United States, as rationing has not gone into effect there. There is plenty of everything and although they appredate the influx of American dollars, Mexicans are getting annoyed because American tourists are thronging through the country , buying surpluses of goods they can't get in the United States. Some distributors even claim to have reshipped American-made small elec· trical appliances again into the States. Electrification of many countries and islands where naval and military bases have been built and which thus have been expanded considerably, will offer new profitable markets for electrical appliances after the war. The trend towards industrialization of Mexico, Brazil and other countries is creating a higher standard of living. This of course r~es new markets. -~ ~ t ,......................... •••••••••••••••••••• e e Army Repair Shops Busy Restoring Many Articles Millions of articles Of army clothing and equipage are being repaired each month by quartermaster corps repair shops in all parts of the world. At present, nearly three million articles are being turned out monthly by shops in the continental United States alone. Quartermaster corps repair shops handle all articles of clothing and equipage, inclu~ng such items as tents, blankets, haversacks, canvas, 'i\"Cbbing and other textile articles, typewriters and office machines. Quartermaster shops at approximately 260 posts, camps and stations in the United States are saving the government nearly two million dollars a month through their repair activities. Overseas quartermaster repair shops are in opera~ tion at numerous bases. These fixed installations are supplemented by repair shops on wheels, operating in theaters of operations where it is impracticable to set up permanent establishments. Articles in excess of the capacity of overseas repair units are returned to the United States for repair or salvage and are handled at newly established repair sub-depots on the east artd west coasts. 1 8 • ,. • • • • • 8 • HAPPY NEW YEAR--I 944 • • • • • •••• • • • • • • • • • • Rubber Tapping • On each side of main straight-up- • and-dowh incision on rubber trees, • tributary incisions are cut to bring • in the latex to the main down-the- • tree stream, after the manner of brooks emptying into a river.

There ar~ poin~­ savers m th1s carefully assembled collection, but such delicious treats that they will bring cheers from the family. Brownies. (Makes 16 large squares) ~ cup butter or substitute 2 squares bitter chocolate 1 cup sugar Z eggs 1 cup flour teaspoon salt 1 cup nutmeats ~ teaspoon vanilla Melt butter and chocolate together. Remove from heat; add sugar and unbeaten eggs, one at a time, then flour, salt and nuts. Beat in vanilla. Bake 20 minutes in a greased pan in a moderate oven. When cool, cut in squares. PfetJernuesse 3 cups flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon cloves 2 tablespoons cinnamon ~ teaspoon nutmeg 1 cup thinly sliced citron Grated rind of 1 lemon 4 eggs 2 cups sugar Sift flour, baking powder and spices; add citron and lemon rind. Beat eggs and ~ sugar until thick. Blend in flour mixture, adding ' more flour if necessary to make a smooth dough. Roll thin on a flour ed surface; cut small cookies and bake in a moderate (350-degree) oven until light brown, about 15 minutes. Almond Jam Bars. (Makes 2~ dozen bars) ~ cup shortening ¥z teaspoon almond extract ~ teaspoon vanilla ¥z cup corn syrup or honey 1¥: cups sifted enriched flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ¥z teaspoon salt ¥z teaspoon cinnamon teaspoon cloves 1 egg %cup jam Mix together shortening and extracts. Add syrup, mixing well. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cloves. Add to shortening and mix until crumbly. Beat egg and add, blending well. Spread hali of batter in bottom of a greased 7 by 12-inch pan. Spread jam over batter. Cover jam with remaining batter. Bake in a moderately hot oven ( 400 degrees) 25 to 30 minutes. Cut in bars. Orange Sugar Tarts. (Makes 5 dozen tarts) ¥z cup butter or substitute 1 cup sugar 1 egg * ,.J •• r * Lynn Says Money Savers: Cheese will keep better if it is covered with a light coating of margarine and stored in a tightly covered fruit j ar. If potatoes are cooked about 5 minutes before baking you can cut their baking time in about bali and save fuel costs. A tablespoon of water added to the white of an egg before beating will almost double its volume. Longer beating is required. If you melt chocolate for cakes and cookies, add about 114 cup of sugar from the recipe to the chocolate which is melted in the saucepan. It will gather up any particles of chocolate left in the pan.

One son climbed a rocky road and climbed, and after a while ' . , said to himTwo Mrners Sons self: "How Climb Rocky Road am I doAnd Both Go High ing?" And he was doing fine. He was as high as any man could get going that way. The other son climbed a rocky road, too, and climbed, but in the opposite directiuTJ; and after a while he said to himseli: "How am I doing?" And he was doing fine, too. He was as high as any man could get going his way. One son is Phillip Murray, chief of the CIO. The other is Benjamin F. Fairless, president of United States Steel. And if anybody wants to be old fashioned and say: "That is America, or was, and not bad, either," it is OK in this corner. Fairless warns a Murray union that its wage demands may float the inflation balloon, because U. S. Steel would have to raise prices to meet the swollen payroll. Fairless probably doesn't keep wages down because he likes to. He knows what it is to pocket a pay envelope as well as to hand one out. He was born in Pigeon Run, Ohio. He went to work early, taught school to get through college. He was graduated a civil engineer, but he turned soon to steel and although the road was rocky he climbed fast. At 45 he was pres· ident of Carnegie-Illinois. He has headed the prime company since 1938. Fifty-three now he is ruddy, stocky, and insiders caD him patient, reasonable. ~ cup aU-bran 3 CU]ls Oour 3~ teaspoons baking powder HE mounting success of the April % teaspoon salt Plan is marked by more than lh cup orange juice Berlin's tumbling walls.

THE DIFFERENCE MORE glamorous than ever, Sonja Henie, the Queen of the Ice, will lead her seventh annual Hollywood Ice Revue at the Chicago Stadium for twenty performances opening Saturday night, December 25, and running through January 15. It is entirely new so far as costumes, music and skating routines are concerned. Besides Sonja, there are many accomplished skaters whose work is familiar to Chicago audiences. Tl::e show is presented in two acts and 24 scenes. M iss Henie does the bulk of the skating and will be seen in no less than six different roles during the 2 hour and 30 minute performance. The show is more costly than ever. The same creators w.ho staged, d esigned, directed and set the 1943 Hollywood Ice Revue have cooperated in the all-new 1944 show.

By driving to the Baltic, the Reds would split the Germans' northern armies from those of the south. and also give them a base from which to attack enemy shipping making use of the sea to supply its armies in the area. In the Ukraine, both sides gave ground grudgingly under heavy blcws. The Nazis pressed forward toward picturesque and domed KiP.V, while the Reds pounded out gains, farther to the south in the Dnieper bend.

By BAUKHAGE NewJ • • • TRANSPORTATION: Parts Needed SOUTHWEST PACIFIC: New Landing One day after U. S. bombers had dumped 350 tons of explosives on Arawe on New Britain island, U. S. warships moved shoreward to the enemy base and pumped big shells into the defenses, even as planes returned to assist in the bombard· ment. After this terrific crescendo, U. S. doughboys swarmed ashore to establish a beachhead on this "trategic island, center of Japanese shipping for supplying its embattled forces on New Guinea and Bougainville. By landing on Arawe, U. S. forces drove a wedge into Jap positions on Cape Gloucester to the west and Gasmata to the east, where the enemy has established airfields to help cover the barge operations with which he feeds supplies to his troops ih this area by traveling along the jungle shorelines by night. While the U. S. stormed Arawe, heavy bombers continued to smack the Marshalls, small Jap island holdings in the central Pacific. RAILROADS: Strike Called ITALY: Action in Air Connecting link between Germany and Italy, Europe's historic Brenner pass was pounded by waves of I U. S. bombers, seeking to disrl!pt the rail lines feeding Nazi arm1es to the south. By striking at the pass, the bombers countered a successful Nazi air raid on the southeastern Italian port of Bari, in which 30 German planes whizzed in at low level and sank 17 Allied cargo vessels lying at anchor in the harbor. . . On the ground, U. S. and Br1tJsh troops clambered forward over mountainous country toward Rome in sleety weather. Fighting bitterly from strong defenses in the hills, and throwing armored for~ations into action on the level plams, the Nazis succeeded in slowing Allied advances. CONGRESS: Tax Bill Tacking on an additional 144 million dollars, the senate finance committee approved a new 2 billion, 284 million dollar tax bill which, if passed by congress, will boost U. S. revenues to 43 billion dollars yearly. Written under Sen. Walter George's chairmanship, the senate bill requires payment of the 3 per cent Victory tax Sen. George by everybody with income over $~'24 a year, and raises levies on amusements, travel, alcoholic beverages, cosmetics, furs, luggage, toilet articles and other luxuries. Also included in the bill was a provision requiring labor organizations and farm co-operatives· to file financial s;ta tements annually. With 97.7 p.er cent of the operating railroad union members voting to strike to enforce their demands for higher wages and with th1l walkout date set for December 30, the government acted quickly to prevent transportation interruption. Said spokesmen for the 350,000 trainmen, firemen, enginemen, engineers, conductors and switchmen who have demanded a 30 per cent wage increase with a minimum boost of $3 daily: "It is a strike against inflation ior the privileged few and deflation for the many." To meet the crisis which was provoked by the unions' rejection of an emergency board's award of a 32cents a day increase, the government's national mediation board summoned both union and rail officials ·to meet to settle d ifferences.

Moscow paved the way. Teheran sealed the covenants. It killed once and for all the controversy over the "second front" and struck the cadence that brought the Allies marching in step toward victory. How was this accomplished? By convincing Russia that it was not the plot of the capitalistic nations to let her bleed white on the battlefields so that she could be throttled in the postwar world. Trucks, railroad equipment, buses and tires are wearing out and replacements must be made if the nation's transportation system is to carry record loads in 1944, the Truman investigating committee asserted.

HIGHLIGHTS. and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C . The flag is flying over the White House again, a real symbol, no longer a ruse de guerre. After the past few weeks, it is a relief to know it really means that the President is there-not an attempt to hide his absence from the enemy. Already the nervous bulletins, announcing the forbidden truths or the invented canards as to the whereabouts of the Allied leaders, are forgotten in the more instant interest in the happenings on the battle fronts -on the home front. Washington has had time to ponder on America's new leadership in world affairs. Perhaps that toast offered by Premier Stalin to A1nerican war production without which, he said, the war could not have been won by the Allies, brought the truth home. America is emerging out of this holocaust as the world's greatest power. And for the first time in history, the world's greatest power is the nation whose people are least prepared, least experienced, least anxious for world leadership. There is a chance that we may let it go by default. Washington has assayed pretty well by this time the fruits of the Moscow conference, the Cairo conference with Chiang Kai-shek attending; the Teheran meeting; the meeting with Turkey's president. As of Dec6mber 1, 176,045.000 pounds of butter were in cold storage, and other stocks included 177,110.000 pounds of American cheese; 197.382,000 pounds of poultry; 376,· 072,000 pounds of pork; 183,096,000 pounds of beef; 31,074,000 pounds of lamb and mutton, and 1,762,000 cases of eggs.

Slowly he began to overtake the rear that was like a dark wave rolling on in front of him. He had forgotten the storm. If there had been another thunderclap it was drowned by the rattling jar in his ears. A crooked flash close in front of the longhorns was his first warning. Against its white light all of the widespread herd stood out briefly, caught in tossing waves, gone too soon for him to locate any rider. Someone was close before he heard the pounding thud of hoofs.

He got up and followed, urged by a quick, yet unshaped suspicion. "Wait a minute." He caught up off in the decreasing light. There was no heat ln him, only a dull outrage against this man who had so much and was using it so badly. He could still see Joy's look, grave and strange end sweet, promising all that a woman could promise, and yet Clay could go on in his bullheaded secret way surely toward some kind of ruin. "There's four men out now," he said. Moonlight and Splann had not come in. "Why are you going, Clay?" The answer came in a surly growl. "There's a storm blowing up. You -can see that yourself." He could, but that wasn't it. He waited, letting his eyes probe through the dim light and seeing the ruddy face turn more and more strained with its controlled temper. He let his words drop quietly.

In the dragging hours their runt became shorter. The rain stopped; a little light began to show his world. It was suddenly as if fatigue had hit the cattle on their bony heads. They seemed to halt between one step and another, with only their panting breath rising and falling over the dark mass. He let them rest while daylight came on, until he could estimate four or five hundred in this bunch. They were as gaunt as wolves from the night's run. Tongues lolled and their big eyes bulged in their sock· ets. It would take weeks to get back the pounds they had lost in these few hours. The morning star was up, largf! and yellow, straight ahead and da\'m was green in the sky when he S9W the first of other bunches coming otJt of the hills to the south.

Joe Wheat, A:;h Brownstone 1.md Charley Storms were the first to join their cattle in . They rode back. He saw that Charley hadn't stopped for his pants but had ridden the night in his long-legged underwear. They trailed behind the herd. Farther on, when Quarternight and Moonlight Bailey a'lgled in from the river with their str avs, he rode up to shape the point with Rebel John . The herd was growing Ahead, Neal Good waited with a :;mai!Pr bunch. Four men were still miss1 :1g, Cia}' and Ed Splann. Steve and Tom Arnold. The longhorns' run had taken them far west, and it was not until after two hours of steady, speechless riding that he saw Owl-Head Jackson's camp smoke lift from the junction of the river and its tributary cr<'ek. He searched along the creek's growth for the trampled part whP.re the herd could cross. Something halted his drifting gaze. He brought it back. An icy coldness crept ro•, er his skin. "John," he said and pointed, "T' d better go look." It was a riderless horse. Even from halt a mile off he knew by the way the animal was standing, crook· edly, with a tired patience, that it had broken a leg. Closer, he saw the saddle under its belly. Its heod raised a little as he approached but dropped" again. He drew his gun and put the muzzle close behind one pointed ear and felt sick as he pulled the trigger. Dragging tracks led toward the creek. He followed them, steeled against a thing he had looked upon before and yet chilled even by those memories. His shot had brought two riders starting out of the dist11nt river trees near camp. He couldn't tell who they were. Then suddenly his horse snorted, spread its legs and stopped. The trampled swath of creekbottom willow lay beyond the low bank. He looked where the ani· mal's ears pointed and in that first moment felt no shock. All of his senses seemed to have gone dead. In that strangely suspended feeling he turned back, fired his gun in the air and waved the men on from the herd. They loped toward him. When they saw the horse he had shot no one asked for the rider. He said, "It's Tom," and saw their faces, haggard from the night's work, only set a little more. The two from camp were closfO now, Clay and Splann, hurried on b.! his second shot. It struck him tha~ they didn't look worn ()Ut lik_e thf' rest of the men. Clay pulled m be · side him. "Who is it?" He jerked a nod toward the creek. "Over there." Clay rod~ over and sat there and took his time about coming back. AI! expression on his full, ruddy face was veiled by an oddly smoothedout look . He shook his head. "Tough. I'll go in, Lew, and tell Joy." "No," he said, "not yet." Clay's huge body straightened up in th.e saddle. "Why not?" His voice earned a new power. "There's no use," he said. "Not till afterward. We're too far from civilizatinn to go in for that kind of a burial. It will have to be here, right now. Let Joy have some other memory. Where's Steve?'-' In a little silence, with his question unanswered, he knew something was coming that had been shaped already in his own mind. But he hadn't expected it would come so soon. Th en Clay said, "Steve's in camp. I'm going in. This makes a difference, Lew. A big one. You might as well know that.'' "Not one bit!" He swung his hcrse over close. "What you're figurir.g on hasn't happened. You'll take my orders till it does." An outraged sense turned him as bitterly hard as he had ever felt. "What a time you pick!" He backed off, holding the hot stare of Clay's blue eyes. "John," he said, "you come with me." He flung a last look at Clay. "The rest of you stay here." Riding on, out of hearing, Quarternight growled, "There's a hyena for you!" ITO BE CONTINUED! FIRST-AID to the AILING HOUSE by Roger B. WhitmClll Roger B. Whltman-WNU F<!atu.rea. BLISTERED PAINT Question: Please reprint the name of the paint remover you have mentioned, and how to use it. I wish to remove some blistered paint. Answer: Trisodium phosphate, three pounds dissolved in a gallon of hot water, makes an excellent paint remover. This chemical is sold at grocery stores under various trade names. It is a coarse white powder that cleans without making a lather when dis15olved in water. There also are commercial paint removers to be had at paint stores. A blowtorch sometimes is used for blistered paint on the outside of a house. But this should be used only by someone with experience, because of the fire hazard. • • • sented in this pattern.

A shredded wood-fibre blanket insulation was suggested. There is no cellar under the house, but the space there is high enough to get under it. Please advise. Answer: A one-inch thick insulating blanket in the walls, and a stud thickness of insulation in the attic and floor should make the house quite comfortable-provided, of course, there is sufficient heat in the house. It would help greatly to put storm sash on all windows. Before installing the floor insulation, coat the underside of floor with liquid asphalt to keep out dampness. • • • Old Decanter Question: I have an old decanter, the inside of which is spotted (round spots like sanded glass). These spots do not show when wet, but come out when the decanter is dry. I have tried the sand and shredded newspaper methods of cleaning, but without success. Can you suggel)t anything else? Answer: The polish on the glass inside the decanter may have been worn off by the use of gravel for cleaning purposes. If so, there is no way to repolish the surface. As a '.ast resort, you might try cleaning with bird shot in hot, soapy water. Swish it around in the decanter in 1 the same way you tried with the I shredded newspaper. • • • Painting a Tin Roof Question: Is it too late in the year to paint our tin roof?

Stir a teaspoonful of paris green into a cupful of syrup or hon~y. After mixing well, spread the ml:x\ure on small pieces of bread or heavy paper, and put the bait where it can easily be found by the wasps, which will eventually die of the polson. Be sure the bait is out of reach of children. Cluster flies and other small insects can be kept out of homes by proper precautions in the autumn. They can squeeze through openings apparently smaller than their bodies. Stuff cracks around windows and screens with cotton to prevent their entrance. A pyrethrum spray will kill or stupefy any of these attic insects. Wet the bodies thoroughly and they will either die or fall to the floor where they may be swept up. In the spring when the insects are anx.Jcus to get out of doors, simply open the attic windows, but be sure to close them again before the pests return in the evening. Tourists Boom American tourists are crowding Mexico buying up everything from "gin and electrical appliances to bobby pins and elastics." Mexico is not feeling the war as acutely as the United States, as rationing has not gone into effect there. There is plenty of everything and although they appredate the influx of American dollars, Mexicans are getting annoyed because American tourists are thronging through the country , buying surpluses of goods they can't get in the United States. Some distributors even claim to have reshipped American-made small elec· trical appliances again into the States. Electrification of many countries and islands where naval and military bases have been built and which thus have been expanded considerably, will offer new profitable markets for electrical appliances after the war. The trend towards industrialization of Mexico, Brazil and other countries is creating a higher standard of living. This of course r~es new markets. -~ ~ t ,......................... •••••••••••••••••••• e e Army Repair Shops Busy Restoring Many Articles Millions of articles Of army clothing and equipage are being repaired each month by quartermaster corps repair shops in all parts of the world. At present, nearly three million articles are being turned out monthly by shops in the continental United States alone. Quartermaster corps repair shops handle all articles of clothing and equipage, inclu~ng such items as tents, blankets, haversacks, canvas, 'i\"Cbbing and other textile articles, typewriters and office machines. Quartermaster shops at approximately 260 posts, camps and stations in the United States are saving the government nearly two million dollars a month through their repair activities. Overseas quartermaster repair shops are in opera~ tion at numerous bases. These fixed installations are supplemented by repair shops on wheels, operating in theaters of operations where it is impracticable to set up permanent establishments. Articles in excess of the capacity of overseas repair units are returned to the United States for repair or salvage and are handled at newly established repair sub-depots on the east artd west coasts. 1 8 • ,. • • • • • 8 • HAPPY NEW YEAR--I 944 • • • • • •••• • • • • • • • • • • Rubber Tapping • On each side of main straight-up- • and-dowh incision on rubber trees, • tributary incisions are cut to bring • in the latex to the main down-the- • tree stream, after the manner of brooks emptying into a river.

Remove from heat; add sugar and unbeaten eggs, one at a time, then flour, salt and nuts. Beat in vanilla. Bake 20 minutes in a greased pan in a moderate oven. When cool, cut in squares. PfetJernuesse 3 cups flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon cloves 2 tablespoons cinnamon ~ teaspoon nutmeg 1 cup thinly sliced citron Grated rind of 1 lemon 4 eggs 2 cups sugar Sift flour, baking powder and spices; add citron and lemon rind.

If potatoes are cooked about 5 minutes before baking you can cut their baking time in about bali and save fuel costs. A tablespoon of water added to the white of an egg before beating will almost double its volume. Longer beating is required. If you melt chocolate for cakes and cookies, add about 114 cup of sugar from the recipe to the chocolate which is melted in the saucepan. It will gather up any particles of chocolate left in the pan.

One son climbed a rocky road and climbed, and after a while ' . , said to himTwo Mrners Sons self: "How Climb Rocky Road am I doAnd Both Go High ing?" And he was doing fine. He was as high as any man could get going that way. The other son climbed a rocky road, too, and climbed, but in the opposite directiuTJ; and after a while he said to himseli: "How am I doing?" And he was doing fine, too. He was as high as any man could get going his way. One son is Phillip Murray, chief of the CIO. The other is Benjamin F. Fairless, president of United States Steel. And if anybody wants to be old fashioned and say: "That is America, or was, and not bad, either," it is OK in this corner. Fairless warns a Murray union that its wage demands may float the inflation balloon, because U. S. Steel would have to raise prices to meet the swollen payroll. Fairless probably doesn't keep wages down because he likes to. He knows what it is to pocket a pay envelope as well as to hand one out. He was born in Pigeon Run, Ohio. He went to work early, taught school to get through college. He was graduated a civil engineer, but he turned soon to steel and although the road was rocky he climbed fast. At 45 he was pres· ident of Carnegie-Illinois. He has headed the prime company since 1938.

The show is more costly than ever. The same creators w.ho staged, d esigned, directed and set the 1943 Hollywood Ice Revue have cooperated in the all-new 1944 show.

In over 2,000 communities throughout the United States, people are laying their own plans for a return to a peacetime economy when the war ends and the country's gigantic armament production ceases. Although these people are being guided by the Committee for Economic Development, they are no trained technicia ns nor market analysts nor economists themselves, but just plain Mr. and Mrs . America familiarizing themselves with the conditions peculiar to their communities and anxious to provide opportunities for its prosperity in the critical postwar world. Citizens in towns and cities ranging from hundreds to thousands in population have grouped to undertake a problem that otherwise might be cast solely upon the shoulders of the government, and thus they have sought to apply democratic principles directly through themselves rather than through distant public officials. Recognizing the great business possibilities in the postwar world, and seeking to acquaint the p eople the country over with them so they might relieve any distress attending demobilization of the milita ry establishments and industry, the Committee for Economic Development, or CEO, was organized in 1942 and began its operations in 1943, with the intention of assisting in the creation of postwar planning groups in communities of more than 10,000. But with the realization that only through a widespread organization affecting every economic segment of the country could any movement be effective, the CED extended its activities to smaller cities as well, where the limited fields offer an even more thorough application of the plan. Headed and supported by the nation's biggest businessmen, the CED makes no bones about its objective of stimulating individual ini- A student from Fairleigh Dickinson junior college Interviews the local hardware and paint dealer on 11i.s postwar employment plans and sales expectations. The college students did the survey work in cooperation with the Bergen County, N. J., Committee for Economic Devel~pment. tiative to assist in the solution of. the ~rave problems which demobiliza;ion will present. But, in pursuing tts goal, CED's organizers welcome the backing of. every economic group within a community: the business:nen, the farmers, labor, public officials and any other persons who might be interested. Each City Makes Own Plans. In proceeding with their work, CED's organizers insist upon each !:ommunity developing its own plans, on the principie that its members are more familiar with the city's circumstances than anybody outside of it might be. CED actively enters the picture through its guidance in organization, the distribution of findings of its expert research departments, and its establishment as a clearing house for the exchange of information gathered through its country-wide operations. As an indication of the grass-roots character of the communal postwar planning, CED's records show that 35 per cent of the cities organized are under 10,000 population, and in the typically rural state of South Dakota, for instance, 130 out of 172 communities engaged in the proiram have less than 1,300 people. The working of the program may be best explained by a study of its A Bergen County, N. J., housewife tells a college girl what she intends to buy after the war in the line of home furnishings, and what the family plans are for remodeling or repairing the house, purchasing an automobile, traveling, and so on. actual operation in one of the small cities, as described by Mr. Hermann C. Wehmann, CED' s regional manager for the Ninth Federal Reserve district, embracing the Northwest. In helping to organize a town, Mr. Wehmann said, CED representatives contact some representative member of the community, who then assembles other active citizens to discuss the program. Expenses are negligible, since the local chamber of commerce, etc., furnish the headquarters, and financial outlay is limited to stationery and postage stamps. To get an idea of the possible postwar conditions in the community, various surveys are conducted, Mr. Weymann continued, with local industries canvassed as to the number of employees they expect they will be able to hire, and residents polled as to the different kinds of merchandise they plan to purchase. Businessmen then figure on how many people they will need to service the demand. Surveys also establish plans for postwar public works to take up any employment slack. To provide a solid basis for the business community to figure on, residents polled also are asked to reveal whether they intend to purcha e goods out of curn. income, installment credit, ;.;s or bank Through banks, building and loan asscJcia ors, postal savi'l~s and war bond sales, fin ancial asse-:.::: of the community are tabulated, to determine the extent to which postwar activities might be supported. Albert Lea, Minn., Survey. Typical of the consumer surveys upon which businessmen can project their potential needs, Mr. Webmann said, was the one conducted in the town of Albert Lea with its population of 12,200, in Freeborn county with over 31,000 people, in Minnesota. The survey showed that residents of the town expected to buy 1,156 automobiles at $1,217,268, and farmers of the county 1,140 cars at $1,105,800. People in the town hoped to buy 442 new houses at an average cost of $4,068, while farmers looked forward to the construction of 150 homes at $3,150 each. Repairs averaging $514 were planned for 714 houses in Albert Lea, while similar work averaging $900 was anticipated on 540 farm homes in the county. In addition, farmers indicated they would build 360 barns at an average cost of $1,473, and 360 silos at an average price of $539. Farmers also expected to purchase 780 tractors averaging $926 each; 810 prefabricated small buildings averaging $566, and 810 electric services averaging $325. With businessmen thus able to figure upon their possible employment needs, and with surveys of local industries determining their future operating prospects, communities can partly visualize their postwar condition. New Industries Encouraged. Towns that may be faced with a surplus of employables can be encouraged to explore the possibility of. developing a new industry after consultation with economic experts at their state universities. In cases where such development may be desirable, consideration may be given to some industry which might be based upon a local agricultural crop. After extensive field work, Mr. Wehmann has set up a chart of the employment prospects of towns which have undertaken communal Embroidery for Your Towels Bassinet for That Darling Baby d/OfJ?ell-: Plan to Maintain Employment After War Surveys Being Made In More Than 2,000 U.

The CED does not overlook the impor tance of industry quickly reconverting to civilian production to abs orb th e mass of employables, nor does it ignore the fact that any solid stability can be expected unless agriculture is assured an adequat e market at a fair price. On the question of reconversion, CED stands for the swift settlement of cancelled war contracts to provide industry with funds with which to finance the switch back to civilian goods. At the end of the war, CED figures that about 10 billion dollars of claims will be entered against the government, of which probably 2 billion dollars will be subject to dispute. Government Surplus Sales. Besides reconversion, CED also advocates the orderly disposal of surplus war material, so as not to repeat the mistakes that followed marketing of such goods after the last conflict, with the subsequent disturbance of normal channels of production and distribution. In this respect, the government already has established an agency for handling surplus goods, with emphasis placed upon a maximum return for any material. In a recent address, Paul G. Hoffman, chairman of the board of trustees of CED, declared: "Private business cannot by any means do the entire job of providing postwar employment. But it is aware of its obligation to make its maximum contribution to that end. With labor and agriculture, it hopes to see reestablished after this war a free and growing American economy . . .

Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menu By Ernie Pyle IN NORMANDY .-One of the things the layman doesn't hear much about is the ordnance department. In fact it is one of the branches that even the average soldier is little aware of except in a vague way. And yet the war couldn't keep going without it. For ordnance repairs all the vehicles of an army and furnishes all the ammunition for its guns. •Jellied Veal Loaf Corn on the Cob Potato Chips Cole Slaw Preserved Fruit Rye Bread Sandwiches •Peach Pie •Recipes Given Today there are more ve hicles in the American sector of our beachhead than in the ave rage-sized American city. And our big guns on an a ver ··e heavy day are shooting up more than $10,000 ,000 worth of ammunition. So you see ordnance has a man-sized job. Ordnance personnel is usually about 6 or 7 per cent of the total men of an army. Ernie Pyle That means we have many thousands of ordnancemen in Normandy. Their insigne is a flame coming out of a retortnicknamed in the army "The Flaming Onion." Ordnance operates the ammunition dumps we have scattered about the beachhead. But much bigger than its ammunition mission is ordnance's job of repair. Ordnance has 275,000 items in its catalog of parts, and the mere catalog itself covers a 20-foot shelf. In a central headquarters here on the beachhead a modern filing system housed in big tents keeps records on the number and condition of 500 major items in actual use on the beachhead, from tanks to pistols. We have scores of separate ordnance companies at work on the beachhead-each of them a complete firm within Itself, able to repair anything the uses.

It's a pleasure both to the cook who prepared it and also to the one fortunate enough to eat it. Proper preparation is a matter of following rules carefully. That's why we have recipes carefully tested and with accurate directions given. Formerly, good cooks put in a lump of butter, a handful of flour, @tc., but no one else could cook like they did.

They are the mechanics and the craftsmen, the fixers and the suppliers. But their job is vital. Ordinarily they are not in a great deal of danger.

Excess gil must be wiped off, and the motor hluwn cl\"ar with an inverted vacuum cleaner. Carbon tetrachloride will remove oil and greases. Burnt out motors are generall:v caused by overloading, low voltage too tight belts, or failure uf the start: ing mechanism. Overloading is usually cam:Prl by l<tck of lubrica· tion of the motors or the driven machine, misadjustment of parts, blocking of the driven machine as in the case of a frozen water pump, or through use of lubricants which become stiff at low temperatures. Wax Fireplace Fireplaces, no matter how well constructed, seem bound to smoke under some conditions. The cumulative result on a fireplace framed with a white painted mantel is to darken the paint by coating it with a sooty, adhesive film which may be resistant to ordinary cleaning. Waxing of the clean white or light-colored woodwork around the fireplace can be a big aid in keeping the fram· ing of the fireplace bright and attractive. If the paint is already discolored by the smoke, it should be cleaned thoroughly and then repainted or enameled. When the job is thoroughly dry, it should be waxed with a good grade of wax. When the waxed surface becomes so impregnated with smoke or soot that it resists cleaning and needs renewing, a self-polishing wax can be removed with warm, soapy water, or liquid wax can be removed by rubbing with more liquid wax applied with a cloth. It is important to remember that self-polishing wax and liquid wax are of different compositions and require different treatment. Care should be taken to see that the fire is cut and that the air is free from ash or dust particles when fresh paint or wax is beir.g used, and that the fi1 ' is not startea again until tht· protec, 'd surface of the white wood.!_01'~ ia ~erfectly dry. ---- --·---4 ttfj Transplants Furnisli Early Garden Yields THE RECORD P}{OI<'ESSIONAL MEN (!RE1£~. America Leads George Washington never rode a wheel. If he had lived until the bicycle was invented, he would have been 110 years old. In Washington's day the United States with its Constitution, its popular vote and its representative law-making bodies was laughed at by people who rliscussed it in far-away lands. They called it a queer government, experiment in a frontier country. Now look at us. Last week this column said that anybody who wanted to change the American system much was an en· err.y of humanity, and we promised to ~ay why. The reason is that America leads the world in benefitting all mankind. Since George Washington's day, America has used freedom that he and his contemporaries protected with the Constitution, to show the world how to live and make progress. High Achievement Mortal man never created anything of more value to the race than America's system of open competition-Private Enterprise. Out of every 400 people on earth, 25 live in the United States, only 6.25 percent, but we send more young people ta high school and college than all other countries combined. Our farmers are richer than Solomon. They never saw a golden sceptre nor a jeweled crown perhaps, but their homes and barns hold many useful things that Solomon would have enjoyed but could not buy. Things not available to Solomon which any American can get now through Private Enterprise are countless. Imagine: Solomon's personal car was horse-drawn; he had to guess what time it was on clouc!y days; he never saw a movie and '-II the news he ever got was hearsay. The royal palace was not wired for electricity, had no telephone and no radio. The king ate what grew in Palestine and liked it because transportation and refrigeration were in the early stages of makeshift. Notbing Is Perfect Between Solomon's reign in Canaan and Washington's administration in U. S. A. (call it 2,500 years) there was surprisingly little gain in human well-being. But progress was made in America, where rewards of Free Enterprise inspired vast numbers o.f people to set their minds and hands to work doing worth-while things. Out of it came the culture, convenience ahd vi~'iolcsome enjoyments of the age in which we live. America has passed through some periods that everybody in the country thought were bad. Our political leaders and industrial barons have made mistakes which anybody can see by looking backward. No longer ago than 1936 when employment was low, our jobless "unfortunates" drove to their relief work in private motor cars. When the American people's spirit was at ita lowest, our national Income was larger than that of six foreign countries-any six. A Better System For purposes of comparison with America's living standards, almost any citizen of the United States would select Europe, and rightly so. Europeans are most like Americans and best understood by most of us. I have often contrasted life here with existence in the Orient where I spent eleven years, but the diifert llU:3 are too markcCI for com pariliOn. Asia is still in Solowon's time. Europe has advanced beyond Washington's day, but wages are three times as high in America twice as high even as in Eniland' which is a highly industrialized country with an old culture. Working people m America have twice as much and live twice as welL Has America had access to more natural resources than Britain? No Britain long dominated the world'~ resources. Nobody boasts tha! Americans are smarter than the British. America has only one ad· vantage, namely, freedom which includes Free Enterprise. The system can be and is being improved but no'hing better has evPr been tried. WATC.~ FOR C~ILDREN DA9-HN6 OUT BETWEEN CARS. ~UNDREDS ARE KILLED THIS WAY YEARLY War Spurs Construction Of Low-Cost Housing Mort than 8,300 federally financed houses now occupied by war workers in 44 public housing projects in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania will be cortverted to lowrent housing and slum clearance purposes after the war, according to information to the national association of housing officials. Now operated by local housing authorities in 23 localities in these states, the projects originally were planned for peace-time low-rent housing. When the war emergency arose, congress authorized development of the projects for "persons engaged in national defense activities." Federal loans covered all the ;ost, of such housing. In the postwar period these projects will be refinanced under provisions of the United States housing act which authorizes the Federal public housing authority to lend local authorities up to 90 per of the total development cost of rent housing. The balance will be raised by local through the sale of their own which will be secured by rents plus annual contrib the federal government.

Although nothing was done then on a commercial scale, the experimental plots were carefully maintained. In 1937 and 1938 field plantings of about 2,000 acres were made in Panama. In 1943 an American commercial company under contract with the Defense Supplies corporation undertook to plant 40,000 acres of abaca in four countries from the plantings already established. In place of the laborious hand methods of stripping the fibers used in the Philippines this company is now installing mod: ern equipment, and machinery for cleaning and processing the fiber. Fioo f6aturos Look Now And See For Yourself! An Exciting Serial Fashion Notes Household Hints Want Ads World News And Countless More Interesting Features Dusting Popular Dusting is becoming popular for insect and disease control in the garden because it is easy quick effective, and the dust com~s read; to use. One pound of dust covers as many plants as four gallons of spray, and a good duster is cheaper' and easier to opera\C than a sprayer. For the home garden a plunger type hand duster is adequate, if it has an extension tube and a curved "underleaf nozzle" for dusting the undersurface of the leaves without stooping. The two-quart or one-quart size is preferable to a smaller one. If a sprayer is preferred, be sure to have one with an angle nozzle as well as a straight nozzle, for spraying the underside of the leaves. Do not use materials prepared for dusting in spray, but rather materials specified for mixing with water. Carn Planting Farmers may plant 5 to 10 more acres of corn per day by drilling or hill-hopping instead of checkrowing their corn. Under many conditions, they will secure yields just as high as with checking if they get the same plant population per acre, according to some agronomists. Although checkrowing has been the traditional method of plnntinl! corn for many years in the COl!! 0~ .t and is still an important method in fields heavily infested with weeds, drilling or hill-dropping corn has some decided advantages. Studies show that 50 per cent of the time in the field when checkrowing corn is lost in turning, moving the wire, and filling hoppers. Much of this lost time can be put to use for work in drilling. When corn is planted on the contour on sloping fields, drilling or hilldropping is the only satisfactory method. .

Affected animals are usually nervous, restless, have an unsteady gait, often froth at the mouth and usually develop convulsions. The disease seems to develop most often in cattle turned on rye, wheat or barley pastures, but apparently animals may be stricken that are grazing on any rapidly growing grass, particularly if the pasture has been heavily fertilized. Prompt treatment by the veterinarian in the early stages may effect a cure-delay often ends in the death of affected animals. Treated animals should not he excited, and feed should be limited to dry hay. Keeping the catt:e out of the pasture at night during the first two or three weeks and feeding some hay, especially if the rainfall is heavy, is recommended for the prevention of the disease. Lettuce and beet seed may be sovm directly in the ground, but if plants can be obtained gardeners can have beet greens and lettuce two or three weeks earlier by setting plants started indoors. The first step in transplanting is to block out the plants. With an old knife cut the soil in the flat lengthwise and crosswise between the rows so that each plant can be lifted with a block of soil attached. Blocking out plants leaves most of thesmall roots undisturbed and the plants start growth more rapidly than if pulled with little soil on the roots. In marking the places for digging holes for the plants, make sure they have enough space. Cabbage and broccoli need about 18 inches between plants; lettuce, 8 to 12 inches, anrl beets, 1 to 3 inches. Dig holes with a trowel or spade and set the plants a little deeper than they had been growing in the flat. Pack the soil firmly around the roots draw loose soil over the surface. Early in May the soil is usually moist enough so the transplants need no watering. If the ground is dry, pour a cupful of water into each hole before the plants arc set. ...

MECKEL, MINISTER .UBLIC SERVICE Discovery of the ruins of two cities in the jungle country at Mexico's waistline-the Isthmus of Tehuantepec-was announced by Dr. Matthew W. Stirling, leader of an expedition sent out jointly by the Geographic society and the Smithsonian institution. The smaller of the two cities, Dr. Stirling reported, apparently was abandoned more than 200 years ago during the colonial era. The site is now marked by numerous stone platforms reached by small stone stairways. The larger community is believed to have been an ancient ceremonial center. Its remains consist of a group of large mounds, all faced with squared stones. Highest of the mounds reaches 50 feet and the largest is nearly 600 feet long. One of the features of the ceremonial city is a well-preserved ball court, a large rectangular space paved with flat stones. Its four sides are inclosed by embankments, also faced with stone. On this court was played a game resembling both modern basketball and handball. The region in which the ruins were discovered lies more than three days' journey from the nearest human habitation. The soil, now choked with jungle growth, is fertile, Dr. Stirling said, and at one time probably supported a heavy population. helps you solve wartime menl probl~:ms ((New Recruit" for tasty Summer Suppers from Good Housekeeping SALMON RICE PLAT-ER 3 1-lb. salmon steaks (1 % "thick) Sljz cups hot cooked white rice (about l% cups uncooked) 6 tbsps. butter or margarine 1 ljz tbsps. flour % tsp. salt Speck pepper Record Taxes Paid by Corporations in 1943 Taxes paid by corporations in the United States in 1943 were the largest on record, having risen to $14,733,000,000 from $860,000,000 in the prewar year of 1938, according to the Alexander Hamilton institute. In addition, raw material and labor costs last year reached new high levels for the war period. Nevertheless, due partly to higher selling prices but chiefly to a record large volume of business, corporate profits in 1943 reached the highest figure not only for the war period but also for the past 15-year period, begir,ning with the predepression year of 1929 which is as far back as records"are available. Corporate profits after taxes amounted to $8,938,000,000 in 1943 as compared with profits of $1,658,000,000 in the prewar year of 1938, with a deficit of $3,646,000,000 at the bottom of the depression in 1932 <me. with profits of $7,194,000,000 in 19!'9 when the prosp'e rity period of .he 20's was at its peak.

SERVICE COMPANY OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS l ! Food Conservation By careful buying, storing and preparation, homemakers can cut the tremendous waste of food. When the housewife goes to market she should buy the abundant foods which generally are of better quality and less expensive. She also should buy only what she needs and can use and what her family likes and will eat. Careful storing of food is also important in cutting waste . Dairy products and meats should be stored clean, cold and covered the ice box should not be overload: ed, packaged foods should be inspected regularly and a daily food inventory is practical. Poor preparation is responsible for much food waste. Measure carefully, don't cook more than you need, learn to make leftovers appetizing don't overcook and don't serve to~ much.

The waterproofness and high moisture resistance nf the resin adhesives have been outstanding advantages to the plywood consumer, and the short time interval required for completing the heat-pressure bond have been a substantial aid to the producers of plywood. After the close of the war it can 1be confide~tly predicted that the advantages ~f synthetic resin adhesives will continue to broaden the field of plywood applications into an increasing number of civilian products.

Charging the present Argentine government with offering friendly support to Axis establishments and scotching the solidarity of westernhemispheric opposition to the enemy, the U.S. government reasserted its non-recognition of the new regime. Indulging in no diplomatic doubletalk, the government, through Secretary of State Cordell Hull, branded Argentina as a "deserter to the Allied cause," then went on to charge that the new regime assisted Axis subcontractors to bid on work utilizing American material, and also allowed distribution of imported newsprint to Axis papers attacking the United Nations' cause.

S. troops unloosed a powerful assault on the western sector to break through the Nazis' first-line defenses and force an enemy withdrawal along a 40-mile front. With heavy bombers preparing the ground for the big offensive with an earth-shaking attack that buried many of the German soldiers and showered dirt over their guns, U. S. armored forces then rode into battle to exploit the breach in the defenses. As the enemy pulled out, U. S. fighters and fighter-bombers swooped low to shoot up the retreating columns. On the eastern end of the front, Nazi Marshal Rommel threw in a succession of counter-attacks to curtail the British advance south of Caen, with fighting see-sawing as one side would go into action when the force of the other's initial assault had been worn off. Bringing all of their superior firepower into play, U. S. forces in the far Pacific continued to tighten their foothold on Japan's inner ring of defenses around the Marianas islands, while farther to the south in New Guinea desperate enemy detachments tried futilely to crack the iron ring General MacArthur has been fastening about them. As big U. S. naval guns tore into enemy emplacements inland to supplement heavy artillery fire, U. S. troops bore down on Tinian island in the Marianas, while other American units broke up frantic Jap counterattacks to consolidate their hold on Guam, one of the first U. S. possessions to fall to the enemy after Pearl Harbor. By establishing beachheads all along the northern New Guinea coast, General MacArthur succeeded in trapping thousands of J apanese troops in between, and many of these were attempting to upset the American lines before the steel noose could be drawn around them tighter.

C., with the Farmers' Union insisting on the Farm Security administration' s handling of the disposal as part of its tenantpurchasing program. Under plans of Surplus Property Administrator William L. Clayton, the Reconstruction Finance corporation is to supervise the program, with appraisals submitted by local experts; sales made as promptly as possible without disrupting the market; former owners given opportunity to repurchase sites, and tracts broken up into individual units. Spearheading the Farmers' Union opposition, President James G. Patton declared that Clayton's plan would lead to dominance of the program by the National Association of Real Estate Boards, with control over permanent resources by big interests. Of the $59,004,006 worth of surplus property disposed of up to mid-July, no real estate was included. Aircraft and aircraft equipment made up the bulk of the sales, the RFC reported.

And as Nazi fighter-defense dwindled, so the weight of sheer numbers reduced the effectiveness of German antiaircraft defense and offense, due to the bombing of her plane factories and plane-part factories and to the destruction of her pilots. Germany's next greatest weakness is lack of gas and oil. This has been caused by the destruction (by the Allied air force again) of oil wells, gasoline refineries and synthetic oil plants. Proofs of the effects of this born bing are not limited to photographs showing the effect of Allied air raids on ball-bearing plants, on the Ploesti oil wells, on the synthetic oil plants and the refineries. It is shown in the German tanks and other war vehicles in perfect condition abandoned and captured because they ran out of fuel. Raids, really shake-down cruises of the giant B-29s directed against Japanese industrial plants, have just begun. Japan is already suffering from shortages of essential materials. Her great stolen storehouses of the Philippines and the Dutch Indies are a long way from home. The transportation problem is a terrible one -Japanese shipping has been subjected to terrific losses by our submarines and planes. Distances Shrink in Far Pacific Warfare Is Japan in any better position to resist air attack than Germany? The answer seems to be "no." Her greatest defense is distance, and distances in the Pacific theater have shrunk at a speed far greater than most people dreamed was possible. Japan's next defense - fighter planes-has suffered in greater proportion than was expected. The quality, as well as the quantity of Jap planes has fallen off so that Japan has become stingy in her use of fighters as the Germans. The quality of her pilots has greatly deteriorated. And this point blends into anoth~r. Japan simply .has not the strategic know-how of aviation. When she does send her bombers and fighters out in great numbers, they are no match for Allied power, man or plane. There is no question that as Japan's resistance weakens the Allied striking power is increased. It is impossible to mention details, of course, for security reasons and it would be unwise to assemble known facts and figures concerning the type of material manufactured and the disposition of forces which, taken together, would indicate clearly enough how the weight of Allied might is being distributed. We can quote the statement of Prime Minister Curtin of Australia, for instance, who says that "this year" British forces in great numbers will be transferred to the Pacific thea rer. Finally, there is a third factor which seems to be a hastening of the end. It is difficult to speak of "morale" in connection with Japan since the people are told how and what to think. But the tone of the official utterances has taken on a decidedly gloomy note. Even as to the shifts in command-the fall of the Tojo cabinet - which might have been hailed with a cheerful fanfare, the phrases were grave and grim. It is also reported, from sources in touch with Japan's inner politics, that the Jap militarists are waiting hopefully to see if the Allies grant enough leniency in their terms to Germany to justify surrender on their part. Although it was emphatically denied in Tokyo it is still believed here that the Japanese representative to the Holy See laid a tentative peace offer before the Pope. Briefly, then, as the conservatively optimistic observers in Washington look at the picture rapidly forming in the Pacific, they see several factors which heretofore worked toward a long drawn out struggle in the Far East either removed or altered. First, the theory that the Allies must fight their way to victory, sea-m ile by sea-mile, island by island, has been completely exploded. Second, Japan's air force has been measureably deflated. Third, the strategy of a blow at the heart of the empire rather than attrition at its perimeter is now considered a reasonable certainty. B R I E F S .•.

Mr. Winkle merely said, "Well, I'm not dead." "Wilbert, how do you really feel? This morning there wasn't time to find out." Mrs. Winkle gazed at him doubtfully. Again, at her hesitancy, at this suggestion that the upper hand was being returned to him, Mr. Winkle had an impulse to remind her of certain things. And again he refrained, not thinking the urge was quite decent. But he did protest, "Amy, don't you look at me like that." "Like what?" she asked. "As if !-that mouse-look," he accused. She looked abashed. At first Mr. :Winkle could not accept the fact that the expression was on her face. "I didn't mean to," she replied. She sounded humble. "I can't help being the way I am," Mr. Winkle stated. "Of course, dear. No one can." Mr. Winkle was amazed. But still he didn't say anything about the miracle occurring before his very eyes. He didn't care to embarrass Amy. "I feel," he said in answer to her previous question, "like taking two doses for my dyspepsia." He fumbled in his pocket for his pills and brought them out. "Some people are coming in tonight," Mrs. Winkle revealed as she bustled to get dinner. "Just the folks on the street." Astounded, Mr. Winkle asked, "What for?" "Well, they wanted to see you. Especially the Pettigrews. Their boy, Jack, has been called, too. He's twenty, you know. He'll be going off with you." The evening, when it came around, was something of a combination of a funeral, a wedding, a family reunion, and a celebration for a person about to leave on a dangerous expedition. The Pettigrews were the first to ~rrive. Mrs. Pettigrew was red-eyed from weeping, and she burst into new tears when she saw Mr. Winkle. "They probably won't take you," she wept, "but Jack- Jack- they'll take him, and he's only a baby." Mr. Pettigrew himself said, "This is crazy, Winkle. Here's Jack, hardly over sucking his thumbs. And here's you, old enough to be his father." Mr. Winkle and Jack eyed each other. The boy was self-conscious, as the young are in the presence of their elders who discuss them. Mr. Winkle, in his position as an adult, felt called upon to say something even though he really had nothing to say. "Well, Jack," he told the boy, 'it looks as if we're being called by our country." · GOES TO WAJ!( W.N.U.RELEASE "Yes, sir," Jack said. H~ could make no more of Mr. Winkle being drafted along with him than Mr. Winkle could make of Jack being selected along with him. Mr. Winkle wished that the boy wouldn't be quite so respectful. More people came. They chat.. tered, and gazed curiously at Mrs. Winkle, as if they couldn't believe what their eyes saw nor what their ears heard. Some of them were earnest about Mr. Winkle's predicament, some wondered, · and others were amused. Mr. Winkle liked the last least of all. He didn't see why people should laugh at him. Mr. Wescott, their next-door neighbor, a rather pompous individual, cornered Mr. Winkle and stated, "If you're the kind of soldier we're going to have, God help us." He stared at Mr. Winkle as if to ask him how he ever got himself into this. Mr. Winkle didn't think this was very patriotic. Mr. Wescott, who was prone to tell anybody all about how anything was conducted, and who could well afford to inform Mr. Winkle about his future because he was over forty-five and not subject to military duty, went on to say, "Of course, you know they won't use you as a combatant." "You don't think so?" Mr. Winkle asked hopefully. "Think it out for yourself, man," Mr. Wescott lectured. "They'll have enough young fellows to do the actual fighting. They want men in their proper places, according to their abilities. That's why they're calling you in the first place, so you can release a fighting man to fight." Mr. Winkle was encouraged. "They won't waste you as a killer," Mr. Wescott assured him. Mr. Winkle didn't know whether to feel flattered or insulted. His neighbor looked at him critically, as if gauging him for the first time. "You wouldn't be any good, anyway. They'll use you in some kind of mechanical work." "Well," said Mr. Winkle, "I could handle that." His courage took hold of him at this talk. "But, understand me, if I thought I was capable of using a gun, I'd do it anywhere they say." "No, sir," Mr. Wescott went on, "you'll never see active service. I can tell you that. You don't have to worry about that for a minute." Mr. Winkle ceased to worry, but only for the allowed minute, for Mr. Wescott then looked trougbtful and amended, "Of course, nrerro! age are being used for combat in all the other armie.s, and if things get to · that stage with us, I suppose you've got to consider that you might have to do a little shooting or bayonet work." When it was time for their visitors to leave, they shook Mr. Winkle's hand as if bidding him goodby before he went into action. Mrs. Pettigrew's tears had dried, but her perturbation remained. She pleaded of Mr. Winkle, "You'll look after Jack, won't you?" Mr. Winkle, despite all his timidity and ineffectual outer character, could appreciate the humor in a situation. "I think," he said, "Jack ought to look after me." He and Jack glanced at each other, and both smiled. The condemned men had at least that mutual understanding. It was nearly eleven before the last of the guests left. Penelope came out from the corner where she had sulked all evening at the invasion of her own peaceful life. Mr. Winkle, out of habit, took her to the back yard. When he came in again he started for the radio, to turn it on for the nightly war news broadcast he usually favored. Then he stopped and didn't go near it, but turned toward the stairs. "Aren't you going to listen to the war news?" Mrs. Winkle asked. "I don't think I will tonight." "But why-?" Mrs. Winkle began to speak as if she were the same person as of before this morning. But she caught herself and then said merely, "Oh." Mr. Winkle felt like pinching himself to be sure he was awake and that this was Amy showing such tact and consideration. He smiled a little, but not so she could see him, and he decided that it was very nice indeed to have her this way. They went upstairs and there, while they prepared themselves for the night, Mrs. Winkle commented in a small voice that seemed to indicate she had other things to say but couldn't say them, ''lt was a nice party, wasn't it?" "Except," said Mr. Winkle, "I don't see exactly why it was held." Mr. Winkle found his imagination running away with itself until his mind was possessed of a nightmare. He saw himself packed into a troop transport. He had seen picttu·es of how it was done. The bunks, one on top of another iR many tiers, with only a narrow aisle between, made the men look like sardines. Across the ocean the ship throbbed. And then in the night there was a dull, jarring thud. The ship shuddered. It began to list. Its eL;;;nes stopped. Flames rose and men pushed and fell and screamed and struck and jumped. Mr. Winkle was in the water, which wall covered thickly with oil. The The Questions oil caught fire and the flames raced toward him. He tried to blot out this picture. But it came again, and made him cold all over. He was bathed in perspiration. He began to s~e slightly and found he couldn't control it, no matter how much he tried. At that he learned how far Amy's reformation had gone, and how real it was, and that she was good-hearted all along as he always knew, and that now he was to become a sol· dier, she was willing to express her feelings about it, even if only silently. Without a word, Mrs. Winkle turned in the bed beside him. She slipped a soft warm arm under his neck and put the other over his chest, and held him tightly. She se~ed to understand. Mr. Winkle was ashamed that she did, but greatly comforted, too. • • • 1. Where is the cornerstone of WNt:- WHY, DOCTOR!

The majority of Californ~a Indian tribes were never rcservatlonizcd, as was the case elsewhere m t.1c United States, but were left to merge as best they might. Thus a tendency to drift from the ancestral J.abitat made headway agair.st the basic inertia and conservatism of Indian tribal culture. Now, more than one i"l eight has moved to pred~minantly white. areas. The rate has accelerated in H:ccnt years because of the dcprcssion of the 1930s, and the stimulus of war employment, and probably will run to completion in a few generations. ~ew Indian men marry outside thetr own people. However, many Indian women marry men of other races, and move to centers of agriculture and industry. The California Indians remaining in th~tr home areas average 68 per cent Indian blood, analysis shows, while those who have migrated to other ru~al areas average 41 per cent, and ctty dwellers less than 37 per cent Indian blood.

The new instrument, portable and easily operated, flashes signs of trouble long before the patient himself notices any symptoms and before any real damage has been done. For centuries physicians have been listening to heart sounds-first with the unaided ear and later with the stethoscope - to diagnose ailments of the heart itself. But the scientists' apparatus uses the hem·t only as a sounding board for catching the message of suhtle changes in the circulation as a whole, changes which do not necessarily involve actual heart damage. These disturbanc1s, too slight to be detected by the electrocard iograph and often too faint even to be detected by standard blood pressure measurements, may be caused by absorption of toxic materials, or by fatigue, anxiety, colds or infections. ! The heart-sound meter thus provhlcs a valuable supplement to periodic blood-pressure scores. Coal Tar Effective Repellent for Corn Seed Coal tar or commercial coal tar repellents are the best material to use to prevent crows and pheasants from pulling corn seedlings or from digging the seed corn. Most other home-made repellents such as turpentine, kerosene, camphor, fish oil, copperas and carbolic acid seriously reduce the germination of tlie seed if enough is used to keep the birds from eating the seed, warns William S. Heit of the Fish and Wild life service, who is stationed at Cornell University. A tablespoonful of coal tar is enough to treat a half-bushel of corn. The corn should be placet! .in warm water, drained, and immediately mixed with the coal tar. Then it should be dried before planting. The coal tar gives the corn a dark oily coa~ing, but does not hurt the germination. In cool or unfavorable weather it may slow the germination a day or two. Uncovered seed, especially at the enfls of the rows, encourages the birds to start digging the seed. Careful seeding will prevent this. Scarecrows are of no use against crows in large fields, and seldom stop damage by pheasants. Llrna Beans Pole li/mas take 75 ~:> 90 d11ys tn mature and since the~· are planted late, this brings the first harvest into late summer. From then on the yield is continuous until frost kills the vines. The vine growth is abundant, and the dark green leaves cover a garden fence or trellis with a mantle of green which forms a beautiful as well as productive background for th~ garden picture. In planting the large seeds of all limas, it ha;; been fotmd there is a definite advantage in placing the eye down. In growth the bean is thrust out of the ground by a sprout which develops from this eye, and if the eye is down the thrust is straight upward, while otherwise the bean must sometimes turn over before it can emerge, and some fail to perform this feat. 200,000 Cars Scrapped Monthly, Reports the Chicago Motor Club Spin~ler-1Roelling FUNERAL HOME 12 North Main Street GCrete, Illinois 1 Phone Crete 2211 -- .. ..- Phone Chicago!Heights 242 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

In over 2,000 communities throughout the United States, people are laying their own plans for a return to a peacetime economy when the war ends and the country's gigantic armament production ceases. Although these people are being guided by the Committee for Economic Development, they are no trained technicia ns nor market analysts nor economists themselves, but just plain Mr. and Mrs . America familiarizing themselves with the conditions peculiar to their communities and anxious to provide opportunities for its prosperity in the critical postwar world. Citizens in towns and cities ranging from hundreds to thousands in population have grouped to undertake a problem that otherwise might be cast solely upon the shoulders of the government, and thus they have sought to apply democratic principles directly through themselves rather than through distant public officials. Recognizing the great business possibilities in the postwar world, and seeking to acquaint the p eople the country over with them so they might relieve any distress attending demobilization of the milita ry establishments and industry, the Committee for Economic Development, or CEO, was organized in 1942 and began its operations in 1943, with the intention of assisting in the creation of postwar planning groups in communities of more than 10,000. But with the realization that only through a widespread organization affecting every economic segment of the country could any movement be effective, the CED extended its activities to smaller cities as well, where the limited fields offer an even more thorough application of the plan. Headed and supported by the nation's biggest businessmen, the CED makes no bones about its objective of stimulating individual ini- A student from Fairleigh Dickinson junior college Interviews the local hardware and paint dealer on 11i.s postwar employment plans and sales expectations. The college students did the survey work in cooperation with the Bergen County, N. J., Committee for Economic Devel~pment. tiative to assist in the solution of. the ~rave problems which demobiliza;ion will present. But, in pursuing tts goal, CED's organizers welcome the backing of. every economic group within a community: the business:nen, the farmers, labor, public officials and any other persons who might be interested. Each City Makes Own Plans. In proceeding with their work, CED's organizers insist upon each !:ommunity developing its own plans, on the principie that its members are more familiar with the city's circumstances than anybody outside of it might be. CED actively enters the picture through its guidance in organization, the distribution of findings of its expert research departments, and its establishment as a clearing house for the exchange of information gathered through its country-wide operations. As an indication of the grass-roots character of the communal postwar planning, CED's records show that 35 per cent of the cities organized are under 10,000 population, and in the typically rural state of South Dakota, for instance, 130 out of 172 communities engaged in the proiram have less than 1,300 people. The working of the program may be best explained by a study of its A Bergen County, N. J., housewife tells a college girl what she intends to buy after the war in the line of home furnishings, and what the family plans are for remodeling or repairing the house, purchasing an automobile, traveling, and so on. actual operation in one of the small cities, as described by Mr. Hermann C. Wehmann, CED' s regional manager for the Ninth Federal Reserve district, embracing the Northwest. In helping to organize a town, Mr. Wehmann said, CED representatives contact some representative member of the community, who then assembles other active citizens to discuss the program. Expenses are negligible, since the local chamber of commerce, etc., furnish the headquarters, and financial outlay is limited to stationery and postage stamps. To get an idea of the possible postwar conditions in the community, various surveys are conducted, Mr. Weymann continued, with local industries canvassed as to the number of employees they expect they will be able to hire, and residents polled as to the different kinds of merchandise they plan to purchase. Businessmen then figure on how many people they will need to service the demand. Surveys also establish plans for postwar public works to take up any employment slack. To provide a solid basis for the business community to figure on, residents polled also are asked to reveal whether they intend to purcha e goods out of curn. income, installment credit, ;.;s or bank Through banks, building and loan asscJcia ors, postal savi'l~s and war bond sales, fin ancial asse-:.::: of the community are tabulated, to determine the extent to which postwar activities might be supported. Albert Lea, Minn., Survey. Typical of the consumer surveys upon which businessmen can project their potential needs, Mr. Webmann said, was the one conducted in the town of Albert Lea with its population of 12,200, in Freeborn county with over 31,000 people, in Minnesota. The survey showed that residents of the town expected to buy 1,156 automobiles at $1,217,268, and farmers of the county 1,140 cars at $1,105,800. People in the town hoped to buy 442 new houses at an average cost of $4,068, while farmers looked forward to the construction of 150 homes at $3,150 each. Repairs averaging $514 were planned for 714 houses in Albert Lea, while similar work averaging $900 was anticipated on 540 farm homes in the county. In addition, farmers indicated they would build 360 barns at an average cost of $1,473, and 360 silos at an average price of $539. Farmers also expected to purchase 780 tractors averaging $926 each; 810 prefabricated small buildings averaging $566, and 810 electric services averaging $325. With businessmen thus able to figure upon their possible employment needs, and with surveys of local industries determining their future operating prospects, communities can partly visualize their postwar condition. New Industries Encouraged. Towns that may be faced with a surplus of employables can be encouraged to explore the possibility of. developing a new industry after consultation with economic experts at their state universities. In cases where such development may be desirable, consideration may be given to some industry which might be based upon a local agricultural crop. After extensive field work, Mr. Wehmann has set up a chart of the employment prospects of towns which have undertaken communal Embroidery for Your Towels Bassinet for That Darling Baby d/OfJ?ell-: Plan to Maintain Employment After War Surveys Being Made In More Than 2,000 U.

The CED does not overlook the impor tance of industry quickly reconverting to civilian production to abs orb th e mass of employables, nor does it ignore the fact that any solid stability can be expected unless agriculture is assured an adequat e market at a fair price. On the question of reconversion, CED stands for the swift settlement of cancelled war contracts to provide industry with funds with which to finance the switch back to civilian goods. At the end of the war, CED figures that about 10 billion dollars of claims will be entered against the government, of which probably 2 billion dollars will be subject to dispute. Government Surplus Sales. Besides reconversion, CED also advocates the orderly disposal of surplus war material, so as not to repeat the mistakes that followed marketing of such goods after the last conflict, with the subsequent disturbance of normal channels of production and distribution. In this respect, the government already has established an agency for handling surplus goods, with emphasis placed upon a maximum return for any material. In a recent address, Paul G. Hoffman, chairman of the board of trustees of CED, declared: "Private business cannot by any means do the entire job of providing postwar employment. But it is aware of its obligation to make its maximum contribution to that end. With labor and agriculture, it hopes to see reestablished after this war a free and growing American economy . . .

Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menu By Ernie Pyle IN NORMANDY .-One of the things the layman doesn't hear much about is the ordnance department. In fact it is one of the branches that even the average soldier is little aware of except in a vague way. And yet the war couldn't keep going without it. For ordnance repairs all the vehicles of an army and furnishes all the ammunition for its guns. •Jellied Veal Loaf Corn on the Cob Potato Chips Cole Slaw Preserved Fruit Rye Bread Sandwiches •Peach Pie •Recipes Given Today there are more ve hicles in the American sector of our beachhead than in the ave rage-sized American city. And our big guns on an a ver ··e heavy day are shooting up more than $10,000 ,000 worth of ammunition. So you see ordnance has a man-sized job. Ordnance personnel is usually about 6 or 7 per cent of the total men of an army. Ernie Pyle That means we have many thousands of ordnancemen in Normandy. Their insigne is a flame coming out of a retortnicknamed in the army "The Flaming Onion." Ordnance operates the ammunition dumps we have scattered about the beachhead. But much bigger than its ammunition mission is ordnance's job of repair. Ordnance has 275,000 items in its catalog of parts, and the mere catalog itself covers a 20-foot shelf. In a central headquarters here on the beachhead a modern filing system housed in big tents keeps records on the number and condition of 500 major items in actual use on the beachhead, from tanks to pistols. We have scores of separate ordnance companies at work on the beachhead-each of them a complete firm within Itself, able to repair anything the uses.

They are the mechanics and the craftsmen, the fixers and the suppliers. But their job is vital. Ordinarily they are not in a great deal of danger.

Overloading is usually cam:Prl by l<tck of lubrica· tion of the motors or the driven machine, misadjustment of parts, blocking of the driven machine as in the case of a frozen water pump, or through use of lubricants which become stiff at low temperatures. Wax Fireplace Fireplaces, no matter how well constructed, seem bound to smoke under some conditions. The cumulative result on a fireplace framed with a white painted mantel is to darken the paint by coating it with a sooty, adhesive film which may be resistant to ordinary cleaning. Waxing of the clean white or light-colored woodwork around the fireplace can be a big aid in keeping the fram· ing of the fireplace bright and attractive. If the paint is already discolored by the smoke, it should be cleaned thoroughly and then repainted or enameled. When the job is thoroughly dry, it should be waxed with a good grade of wax. When the waxed surface becomes so impregnated with smoke or soot that it resists cleaning and needs renewing, a self-polishing wax can be removed with warm, soapy water, or liquid wax can be removed by rubbing with more liquid wax applied with a cloth. It is important to remember that self-polishing wax and liquid wax are of different compositions and require different treatment. Care should be taken to see that the fire is cut and that the air is free from ash or dust particles when fresh paint or wax is beir.g used, and that the fi1 ' is not startea again until tht· protec, 'd surface of the white wood.!_01'~ ia ~erfectly dry. ---- --·---4 ttfj Transplants Furnisli Early Garden Yields THE RECORD P}{OI<'ESSIONAL MEN (!RE1£~. America Leads George Washington never rode a wheel. If he had lived until the bicycle was invented, he would have been 110 years old. In Washington's day the United States with its Constitution, its popular vote and its representative law-making bodies was laughed at by people who rliscussed it in far-away lands. They called it a queer government, experiment in a frontier country. Now look at us. Last week this column said that anybody who wanted to change the American system much was an en· err.y of humanity, and we promised to ~ay why. The reason is that America leads the world in benefitting all mankind. Since George Washington's day, America has used freedom that he and his contemporaries protected with the Constitution, to show the world how to live and make progress. High Achievement Mortal man never created anything of more value to the race than America's system of open competition-Private Enterprise. Out of every 400 people on earth, 25 live in the United States, only 6.25 percent, but we send more young people ta high school and college than all other countries combined. Our farmers are richer than Solomon. They never saw a golden sceptre nor a jeweled crown perhaps, but their homes and barns hold many useful things that Solomon would have enjoyed but could not buy. Things not available to Solomon which any American can get now through Private Enterprise are countless. Imagine: Solomon's personal car was horse-drawn; he had to guess what time it was on clouc!y days; he never saw a movie and '-II the news he ever got was hearsay. The royal palace was not wired for electricity, had no telephone and no radio. The king ate what grew in Palestine and liked it because transportation and refrigeration were in the early stages of makeshift. Notbing Is Perfect Between Solomon's reign in Canaan and Washington's administration in U. S. A. (call it 2,500 years) there was surprisingly little gain in human well-being. But progress was made in America, where rewards of Free Enterprise inspired vast numbers o.f people to set their minds and hands to work doing worth-while things. Out of it came the culture, convenience ahd vi~'iolcsome enjoyments of the age in which we live. America has passed through some periods that everybody in the country thought were bad. Our political leaders and industrial barons have made mistakes which anybody can see by looking backward. No longer ago than 1936 when employment was low, our jobless "unfortunates" drove to their relief work in private motor cars. When the American people's spirit was at ita lowest, our national Income was larger than that of six foreign countries-any six. A Better System For purposes of comparison with America's living standards, almost any citizen of the United States would select Europe, and rightly so. Europeans are most like Americans and best understood by most of us. I have often contrasted life here with existence in the Orient where I spent eleven years, but the diifert llU:3 are too markcCI for com pariliOn. Asia is still in Solowon's time. Europe has advanced beyond Washington's day, but wages are three times as high in America twice as high even as in Eniland' which is a highly industrialized country with an old culture. Working people m America have twice as much and live twice as welL Has America had access to more natural resources than Britain? No Britain long dominated the world'~ resources. Nobody boasts tha! Americans are smarter than the British. America has only one ad· vantage, namely, freedom which includes Free Enterprise. The system can be and is being improved but no'hing better has evPr been tried. WATC.~ FOR C~ILDREN DA9-HN6 OUT BETWEEN CARS. ~UNDREDS ARE KILLED THIS WAY YEARLY War Spurs Construction Of Low-Cost Housing Mort than 8,300 federally financed houses now occupied by war workers in 44 public housing projects in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania will be cortverted to lowrent housing and slum clearance purposes after the war, according to information to the national association of housing officials. Now operated by local housing authorities in 23 localities in these states, the projects originally were planned for peace-time low-rent housing. When the war emergency arose, congress authorized development of the projects for "persons engaged in national defense activities." Federal loans covered all the ;ost, of such housing. In the postwar period these projects will be refinanced under provisions of the United States housing act which authorizes the Federal public housing authority to lend local authorities up to 90 per of the total development cost of rent housing. The balance will be raised by local through the sale of their own which will be secured by rents plus annual contrib the federal government.

Although nothing was done then on a commercial scale, the experimental plots were carefully maintained. In 1937 and 1938 field plantings of about 2,000 acres were made in Panama. In 1943 an American commercial company under contract with the Defense Supplies corporation undertook to plant 40,000 acres of abaca in four countries from the plantings already established. In place of the laborious hand methods of stripping the fibers used in the Philippines this company is now installing mod: ern equipment, and machinery for cleaning and processing the fiber.

An Exciting Serial Fashion Notes Household Hints Want Ads World News And Countless More Interesting Features Dusting Popular Dusting is becoming popular for insect and disease control in the garden because it is easy quick effective, and the dust com~s read; to use. One pound of dust covers as many plants as four gallons of spray, and a good duster is cheaper' and easier to opera\C than a sprayer. For the home garden a plunger type hand duster is adequate, if it has an extension tube and a curved "underleaf nozzle" for dusting the undersurface of the leaves without stooping. The two-quart or one-quart size is preferable to a smaller one. If a sprayer is preferred, be sure to have one with an angle nozzle as well as a straight nozzle, for spraying the underside of the leaves. Do not use materials prepared for dusting in spray, but rather materials specified for mixing with water. Carn Planting Farmers may plant 5 to 10 more acres of corn per day by drilling or hill-hopping instead of checkrowing their corn. Under many conditions, they will secure yields just as high as with checking if they get the same plant population per acre, according to some agronomists. Although checkrowing has been the traditional method of plnntinl! corn for many years in the COl!! 0~ .t and is still an important method in fields heavily infested with weeds, drilling or hill-dropping corn has some decided advantages. Studies show that 50 per cent of the time in the field when checkrowing corn is lost in turning, moving the wire, and filling hoppers. Much of this lost time can be put to use for work in drilling. When corn is planted on the contour on sloping fields, drilling or hilldropping is the only satisfactory method. .

Affected animals are usually nervous, restless, have an unsteady gait, often froth at the mouth and usually develop convulsions. The disease seems to develop most often in cattle turned on rye, wheat or barley pastures, but apparently animals may be stricken that are grazing on any rapidly growing grass, particularly if the pasture has been heavily fertilized. Prompt treatment by the veterinarian in the early stages may effect a cure-delay often ends in the death of affected animals. Treated animals should not he excited, and feed should be limited to dry hay. Keeping the catt:e out of the pasture at night during the first two or three weeks and feeding some hay, especially if the rainfall is heavy, is recommended for the prevention of the disease. Lettuce and beet seed may be sovm directly in the ground, but if plants can be obtained gardeners can have beet greens and lettuce two or three weeks earlier by setting plants started indoors. The first step in transplanting is to block out the plants. With an old knife cut the soil in the flat lengthwise and crosswise between the rows so that each plant can be lifted with a block of soil attached. Blocking out plants leaves most of thesmall roots undisturbed and the plants start growth more rapidly than if pulled with little soil on the roots. In marking the places for digging holes for the plants, make sure they have enough space. Cabbage and broccoli need about 18 inches between plants; lettuce, 8 to 12 inches, anrl beets, 1 to 3 inches. Dig holes with a trowel or spade and set the plants a little deeper than they had been growing in the flat. Pack the soil firmly around the roots draw loose soil over the surface. Early in May the soil is usually moist enough so the transplants need no watering. If the ground is dry, pour a cupful of water into each hole before the plants arc set. ...

MECKEL, MINISTER .UBLIC SERVICE Discovery of the ruins of two cities in the jungle country at Mexico's waistline-the Isthmus of Tehuantepec-was announced by Dr. Matthew W. Stirling, leader of an expedition sent out jointly by the Geographic society and the Smithsonian institution. The smaller of the two cities, Dr. Stirling reported, apparently was abandoned more than 200 years ago during the colonial era. The site is now marked by numerous stone platforms reached by small stone stairways. The larger community is believed to have been an ancient ceremonial center. Its remains consist of a group of large mounds, all faced with squared stones. Highest of the mounds reaches 50 feet and the largest is nearly 600 feet long. One of the features of the ceremonial city is a well-preserved ball court, a large rectangular space paved with flat stones. Its four sides are inclosed by embankments, also faced with stone. On this court was played a game resembling both modern basketball and handball. The region in which the ruins were discovered lies more than three days' journey from the nearest human habitation. The soil, now choked with jungle growth, is fertile, Dr. Stirling said, and at one time probably supported a heavy population. helps you solve wartime menl probl~:ms ((New Recruit" for tasty Summer Suppers from Good Housekeeping SALMON RICE PLAT-ER 3 1-lb. salmon steaks (1 % "thick) Sljz cups hot cooked white rice (about l% cups uncooked) 6 tbsps. butter or margarine 1 ljz tbsps. flour % tsp. salt Speck pepper Record Taxes Paid by Corporations in 1943 Taxes paid by corporations in the United States in 1943 were the largest on record, having risen to $14,733,000,000 from $860,000,000 in the prewar year of 1938, according to the Alexander Hamilton institute. In addition, raw material and labor costs last year reached new high levels for the war period. Nevertheless, due partly to higher selling prices but chiefly to a record large volume of business, corporate profits in 1943 reached the highest figure not only for the war period but also for the past 15-year period, begir,ning with the predepression year of 1929 which is as far back as records"are available. Corporate profits after taxes amounted to $8,938,000,000 in 1943 as compared with profits of $1,658,000,000 in the prewar year of 1938, with a deficit of $3,646,000,000 at the bottom of the depression in 1932 <me. with profits of $7,194,000,000 in 19!'9 when the prosp'e rity period of .he 20's was at its peak.

SERVICE COMPANY OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS l ! Food Conservation By careful buying, storing and preparation, homemakers can cut the tremendous waste of food. When the housewife goes to market she should buy the abundant foods which generally are of better quality and less expensive. She also should buy only what she needs and can use and what her family likes and will eat. Careful storing of food is also important in cutting waste . Dairy products and meats should be stored clean, cold and covered the ice box should not be overload: ed, packaged foods should be inspected regularly and a daily food inventory is practical. Poor preparation is responsible for much food waste. Measure carefully, don't cook more than you need, learn to make leftovers appetizing don't overcook and don't serve to~ much.

The waterproofness and high moisture resistance nf the resin adhesives have been outstanding advantages to the plywood consumer, and the short time interval required for completing the heat-pressure bond have been a substantial aid to the producers of plywood.

S. troops unloosed a powerful assault on the western sector to break through the Nazis' first-line defenses and force an enemy withdrawal along a 40-mile front. With heavy bombers preparing the ground for the big offensive with an earth-shaking attack that buried many of the German soldiers and showered dirt over their guns, U. S. armored forces then rode into battle to exploit the breach in the defenses. As the enemy pulled out, U. S. fighters and fighter-bombers swooped low to shoot up the retreating columns. On the eastern end of the front, Nazi Marshal Rommel threw in a succession of counter-attacks to curtail the British advance south of Caen, with fighting see-sawing as one side would go into action when the force of the other's initial assault had been worn off. Bringing all of their superior firepower into play, U. S. forces in the far Pacific continued to tighten their foothold on Japan's inner ring of defenses around the Marianas islands, while farther to the south in New Guinea desperate enemy detachments tried futilely to crack the iron ring General MacArthur has been fastening about them. As big U. S. naval guns tore into enemy emplacements inland to supplement heavy artillery fire, U. S. troops bore down on Tinian island in the Marianas, while other American units broke up frantic Jap counterattacks to consolidate their hold on Guam, one of the first U. S. possessions to fall to the enemy after Pearl Harbor. By establishing beachheads all along the northern New Guinea coast, General MacArthur succeeded in trapping thousands of J apanese troops in between, and many of these were attempting to upset the American lines before the steel noose could be drawn around them tighter.

C., with the Farmers' Union insisting on the Farm Security administration' s handling of the disposal as part of its tenantpurchasing program. Under plans of Surplus Property Administrator William L. Clayton, the Reconstruction Finance corporation is to supervise the program, with appraisals submitted by local experts; sales made as promptly as possible without disrupting the market; former owners given opportunity to repurchase sites, and tracts broken up into individual units. Spearheading the Farmers' Union opposition, President James G. Patton declared that Clayton's plan would lead to dominance of the program by the National Association of Real Estate Boards, with control over permanent resources by big interests. Of the $59,004,006 worth of surplus property disposed of up to mid-July, no real estate was included. Aircraft and aircraft equipment made up the bulk of the sales, the RFC reported.

And as Nazi fighter-defense dwindled, so the weight of sheer numbers reduced the effectiveness of German antiaircraft defense and offense, due to the bombing of her plane factories and plane-part factories and to the destruction of her pilots. Germany's next greatest weakness is lack of gas and oil. This has been caused by the destruction (by the Allied air force again) of oil wells, gasoline refineries and synthetic oil plants. Proofs of the effects of this born bing are not limited to photographs showing the effect of Allied air raids on ball-bearing plants, on the Ploesti oil wells, on the synthetic oil plants and the refineries. It is shown in the German tanks and other war vehicles in perfect condition abandoned and captured because they ran out of fuel. Raids, really shake-down cruises of the giant B-29s directed against Japanese industrial plants, have just begun. Japan is already suffering from shortages of essential materials. Her great stolen storehouses of the Philippines and the Dutch Indies are a long way from home. The transportation problem is a terrible one -Japanese shipping has been subjected to terrific losses by our submarines and planes. Distances Shrink in Far Pacific Warfare Is Japan in any better position to resist air attack than Germany? The answer seems to be "no." Her greatest defense is distance, and distances in the Pacific theater have shrunk at a speed far greater than most people dreamed was possible. Japan's next defense - fighter planes-has suffered in greater proportion than was expected. The quality, as well as the quantity of Jap planes has fallen off so that Japan has become stingy in her use of fighters as the Germans. The quality of her pilots has greatly deteriorated. And this point blends into anoth~r. Japan simply .has not the strategic know-how of aviation. When she does send her bombers and fighters out in great numbers, they are no match for Allied power, man or plane. There is no question that as Japan's resistance weakens the Allied striking power is increased. It is impossible to mention details, of course, for security reasons and it would be unwise to assemble known facts and figures concerning the type of material manufactured and the disposition of forces which, taken together, would indicate clearly enough how the weight of Allied might is being distributed. We can quote the statement of Prime Minister Curtin of Australia, for instance, who says that "this year" British forces in great numbers will be transferred to the Pacific thea rer. Finally, there is a third factor which seems to be a hastening of the end. It is difficult to speak of "morale" in connection with Japan since the people are told how and what to think. But the tone of the official utterances has taken on a decidedly gloomy note. Even as to the shifts in command-the fall of the Tojo cabinet - which might have been hailed with a cheerful fanfare, the phrases were grave and grim. It is also reported, from sources in touch with Japan's inner politics, that the Jap militarists are waiting hopefully to see if the Allies grant enough leniency in their terms to Germany to justify surrender on their part. Although it was emphatically denied in Tokyo it is still believed here that the Japanese representative to the Holy See laid a tentative peace offer before the Pope. Briefly, then, as the conservatively optimistic observers in Washington look at the picture rapidly forming in the Pacific, they see several factors which heretofore worked toward a long drawn out struggle in the Far East either removed or altered. First, the theory that the Allies must fight their way to victory, sea-m ile by sea-mile, island by island, has been completely exploded. Second, Japan's air force has been measureably deflated. Third, the strategy of a blow at the heart of the empire rather than attrition at its perimeter is now considered a reasonable certainty. B R I E F S .•.

And again he refrained, not thinking the urge was quite decent. But he did protest, "Amy, don't you look at me like that." "Like what?" she asked. "As if !-that mouse-look," he accused. She looked abashed. At first Mr. :Winkle could not accept the fact that the expression was on her face. "I didn't mean to," she replied. She sounded humble. "I can't help being the way I am," Mr. Winkle stated. "Of course, dear. No one can." Mr. Winkle was amazed. But still he didn't say anything about the miracle occurring before his very eyes. He didn't care to embarrass Amy. "I feel," he said in answer to her previous question, "like taking two doses for my dyspepsia." He fumbled in his pocket for his pills and brought them out. "Some people are coming in tonight," Mrs. Winkle revealed as she bustled to get dinner. "Just the folks on the street." Astounded, Mr. Winkle asked, "What for?" "Well, they wanted to see you. Especially the Pettigrews. Their boy, Jack, has been called, too. He's twenty, you know. He'll be going off with you." The evening, when it came around, was something of a combination of a funeral, a wedding, a family reunion, and a celebration for a person about to leave on a dangerous expedition. The Pettigrews were the first to ~rrive. Mrs. Pettigrew was red-eyed from weeping, and she burst into new tears when she saw Mr. Winkle. "They probably won't take you," she wept, "but Jack- Jack- they'll take him, and he's only a baby." Mr. Pettigrew himself said, "This is crazy, Winkle. Here's Jack, hardly over sucking his thumbs. And here's you, old enough to be his father." Mr. Winkle and Jack eyed each other. The boy was self-conscious, as the young are in the presence of their elders who discuss them. Mr. Winkle, in his position as an adult, felt called upon to say something even though he really had nothing to say. "Well, Jack," he told the boy, 'it looks as if we're being called by our country." · GOES TO WAJ!( W.N.U.RELEASE "Yes, sir," Jack said. H~ could make no more of Mr. Winkle being drafted along with him than Mr. Winkle could make of Jack being selected along with him. Mr. Winkle wished that the boy wouldn't be quite so respectful. More people came. They chat.. tered, and gazed curiously at Mrs. Winkle, as if they couldn't believe what their eyes saw nor what their ears heard. Some of them were earnest about Mr. Winkle's predicament, some wondered, · and others were amused. Mr. Winkle liked the last least of all. He didn't see why people should laugh at him. Mr. Wescott, their next-door neighbor, a rather pompous individual, cornered Mr. Winkle and stated, "If you're the kind of soldier we're going to have, God help us." He stared at Mr. Winkle as if to ask him how he ever got himself into this. Mr. Winkle didn't think this was very patriotic. Mr. Wescott, who was prone to tell anybody all about how anything was conducted, and who could well afford to inform Mr. Winkle about his future because he was over forty-five and not subject to military duty, went on to say, "Of course, you know they won't use you as a combatant." "You don't think so?" Mr. Winkle asked hopefully. "Think it out for yourself, man," Mr. Wescott lectured. "They'll have enough young fellows to do the actual fighting. They want men in their proper places, according to their abilities. That's why they're calling you in the first place, so you can release a fighting man to fight." Mr. Winkle was encouraged. "They won't waste you as a killer," Mr. Wescott assured him. Mr. Winkle didn't know whether to feel flattered or insulted. His neighbor looked at him critically, as if gauging him for the first time. "You wouldn't be any good, anyway. They'll use you in some kind of mechanical work." "Well," said Mr. Winkle, "I could handle that." His courage took hold of him at this talk. "But, understand me, if I thought I was capable of using a gun, I'd do it anywhere they say." "No, sir," Mr. Wescott went on, "you'll never see active service. I can tell you that. You don't have to worry about that for a minute." Mr. Winkle ceased to worry, but only for the allowed minute, for Mr. Wescott then looked trougbtful and amended, "Of course, nrerro! age are being used for combat in all the other armie.s, and if things get to · that stage with us, I suppose you've got to consider that you might have to do a little shooting or bayonet work." When it was time for their visitors to leave, they shook Mr. Winkle's hand as if bidding him goodby before he went into action. Mrs. Pettigrew's tears had dried, but her perturbation remained. She pleaded of Mr. Winkle, "You'll look after Jack, won't you?" Mr. Winkle, despite all his timidity and ineffectual outer character, could appreciate the humor in a situation. "I think," he said, "Jack ought to look after me." He and Jack glanced at each other, and both smiled. The condemned men had at least that mutual understanding. It was nearly eleven before the last of the guests left. Penelope came out from the corner where she had sulked all evening at the invasion of her own peaceful life. Mr. Winkle, out of habit, took her to the back yard. When he came in again he started for the radio, to turn it on for the nightly war news broadcast he usually favored. Then he stopped and didn't go near it, but turned toward the stairs. "Aren't you going to listen to the war news?" Mrs. Winkle asked. "I don't think I will tonight." "But why-?" Mrs. Winkle began to speak as if she were the same person as of before this morning. But she caught herself and then said merely, "Oh." Mr. Winkle felt like pinching himself to be sure he was awake and that this was Amy showing such tact and consideration. He smiled a little, but not so she could see him, and he decided that it was very nice indeed to have her this way. They went upstairs and there, while they prepared themselves for the night, Mrs. Winkle commented in a small voice that seemed to indicate she had other things to say but couldn't say them, ''lt was a nice party, wasn't it?" "Except," said Mr. Winkle, "I don't see exactly why it was held." Mr. Winkle found his imagination running away with itself until his mind was possessed of a nightmare. He saw himself packed into a troop transport. He had seen picttu·es of how it was done. The bunks, one on top of another iR many tiers, with only a narrow aisle between, made the men look like sardines. Across the ocean the ship throbbed. And then in the night there was a dull, jarring thud. The ship shuddered. It began to list. Its eL;;;nes stopped. Flames rose and men pushed and fell and screamed and struck and jumped. Mr. Winkle was in the water, which wall covered thickly with oil. The The Questions oil caught fire and the flames raced toward him. He tried to blot out this picture. But it came again, and made him cold all over. He was bathed in perspiration. He began to s~e slightly and found he couldn't control it, no matter how much he tried. At that he learned how far Amy's reformation had gone, and how real it was, and that she was good-hearted all along as he always knew, and that now he was to become a sol· dier, she was willing to express her feelings about it, even if only silently. Without a word, Mrs. Winkle turned in the bed beside him. She slipped a soft warm arm under his neck and put the other over his chest, and held him tightly. She se~ed to understand. Mr. Winkle was ashamed that she did, but greatly comforted, too. • • • 1. Where is the cornerstone of WNt:- WHY, DOCTOR!

The majority of Californ~a Indian tribes were never rcservatlonizcd, as was the case elsewhere m t.1c United States, but were left to merge as best they might. Thus a tendency to drift from the ancestral J.abitat made headway agair.st the basic inertia and conservatism of Indian tribal culture. Now, more than one i"l eight has moved to pred~minantly white. areas. The rate has accelerated in H:ccnt years because of the dcprcssion of the 1930s, and the stimulus of war employment, and probably will run to completion in a few generations. ~ew Indian men marry outside thetr own people. However, many Indian women marry men of other races, and move to centers of agriculture and industry. The California Indians remaining in th~tr home areas average 68 per cent Indian blood, analysis shows, while those who have migrated to other ru~al areas average 41 per cent, and ctty dwellers less than 37 per cent Indian blood.

The new instrument, portable and easily operated, flashes signs of trouble long before the patient himself notices any symptoms and before any real damage has been done. For centuries physicians have been listening to heart sounds-first with the unaided ear and later with the stethoscope - to diagnose ailments of the heart itself. But the scientists' apparatus uses the hem·t only as a sounding board for catching the message of suhtle changes in the circulation as a whole, changes which do not necessarily involve actual heart damage. These disturbanc1s, too slight to be detected by the electrocard iograph and often too faint even to be detected by standard blood pressure measurements, may be caused by absorption of toxic materials, or by fatigue, anxiety, colds or infections. ! The heart-sound meter thus provhlcs a valuable supplement to periodic blood-pressure scores. Coal Tar Effective Repellent for Corn Seed Coal tar or commercial coal tar repellents are the best material to use to prevent crows and pheasants from pulling corn seedlings or from digging the seed corn. Most other home-made repellents such as turpentine, kerosene, camphor, fish oil, copperas and carbolic acid seriously reduce the germination of tlie seed if enough is used to keep the birds from eating the seed, warns William S. Heit of the Fish and Wild life service, who is stationed at Cornell University. A tablespoonful of coal tar is enough to treat a half-bushel of corn. The corn should be placet! .in warm water, drained, and immediately mixed with the coal tar. Then it should be dried before planting. The coal tar gives the corn a dark oily coa~ing, but does not hurt the germination. In cool or unfavorable weather it may slow the germination a day or two. Uncovered seed, especially at the enfls of the rows, encourages the birds to start digging the seed. Careful seeding will prevent this. Scarecrows are of no use against crows in large fields, and seldom stop damage by pheasants. Llrna Beans Pole li/mas take 75 ~:> 90 d11ys tn mature and since the~· are planted late, this brings the first harvest into late summer. From then on the yield is continuous until frost kills the vines. The vine growth is abundant, and the dark green leaves cover a garden fence or trellis with a mantle of green which forms a beautiful as well as productive background for th~ garden picture. In planting the large seeds of all limas, it ha;; been fotmd there is a definite advantage in placing the eye down. In growth the bean is thrust out of the ground by a sprout which develops from this eye, and if the eye is down the thrust is straight upward, while otherwise the bean must sometimes turn over before it can emerge, and some fail to perform this feat. 200,000 Cars Scrapped Monthly, Reports the Chicago Motor Club Spin~ler-1Roelling FUNERAL HOME 12 North Main Street GCrete, Illinois 1 Phone Crete 2211 -- .. ..- Phone Chicago!Heights 242 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

IOOTH, RWAUKIE 1Z, IlL "T ET'S go in and watch him L work." That's what Ingrid Bergman said to me one day outside the sound stage at Selznick's studio while Allred Hitchcock was filming ''Spellbound.'' The actors in his pictures will always tell you that Hitch gives the best performance of any one on the set, just like Lubitsch. And the' 'Hitchcock touch" or the "Lubitsch touch" has made their pictures a "must see" with millions. Ritchie's 1uips and drolleries make smart dinner conversation for Hollywood's duller souls. Alfred Hitchcock And yet he told me the other day then was nothing extraordinary abo~~ the suspense-packed pictures he makes. What passed for inspiration with him was observationwatching what actually happens, filming only what could happen. We were in the living room of his Bel-Air home, looking through the window at golfers passing on the course a hundred yards distant. I'd gone up to welcome him back from England. I wanted to hear how the Hitchcock technique had been applied to propaganda pictures he directed over there. He started right off by sa~ing that one of these pictures wasn t propaganda at all. " 'Bon Voyage,'" he explained, "was just a way of saying thanks to the French people and the underground for all they'd risked in helping so many of our boys escape during the occupation. It's a three-reel feature that tells the true story of the escape oi an English flier and assistance given him."

By Ernie Pyle IN THE MARIANAS ISLANDS.-The B-29 is unquestionably a wonderful airplane. Outside of the famous old Douglas DC-3 workhorse, I've never heard pilots so unanimous in their praise of an airplane. I took my first ride in one the other day. No, I didn't go on a mission to Japan. We've been through all that before. I don't believe in people going on missions unless they have to. And as before, the pilots here all agreed®•._WI_._th_m_e_._ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ But I went along on a little practice bombing trip of an hour and a half. The pilot was Maj. Gerald Robinson, who lives in our hut. His wife, inci· dentally, lives at 123 South Girard street, Albu:Iuerque, N. M., :m the very same street as our white house. I sat on a box Ernle Pyle between the pilots both on the takeoff and for the landing, and as much as I've flown, that was still a thrill. These islands are all relatively small, and you're no ;ooner off the ground than you're out over water, and that feels funny. If the air is a little rough, it gives you a very odd sensation sitting way up there in the nose. For the B-29 is so big that, instead of bumping or dropping, the nose has a "willowy" motion, sort of like sitting out on the end of a green limb when it's swaying around. The B-29 carries a crew of 11. Some of them sit up in the cockpit and the compartment just behind it. Some others sit in a compartment near the tail. The tail gunner sits all alone, way back there in the lonely tail turret. The body of the B-29 is so taken up with gas tanks and bomb racks that there's normally no way to get from front to rear compartments. So the manufacturers solved that by building a tunnel into the plane, right along the rooftop. The tunnel is round, just big enough to crawl in on your hands and knees, and is padded with blue cloth. It's more than 30 feet long, and the crew members crawl back and forth through it all the time. Maj. Russ Cheever reported that he accomplished the impossible the other day by turning around in the tunnel. On missions, some of the crew get back in this tunnel and sleep for an hour or so. But a lot of them :::an't stand to do that. I've heard ::ombat crewmen bring up the sub· ject a half dozen times. They say they get claustrophobia in the tunn.el. There used to be some sleeping bunks on the B-29, but they've been taken out, and now there's hardly even room to lie down on the floor. A fellow does get sleepy on a 14hour mission. Most of the pilots take naps in their seats. One pilot I know turned the plane over to his copilot and went back to the tunnel for "a little nap," and didn't return for six hours, just before they hit the :::oast of Japan. They laughingly say he goes to sleep before he gets his wheels up. The B-29 is a very stable plane and hardly anybody ever gets sick even in rough weather. The boys smoke in the plane, and the mess hall gives them a small lunch of sandwiches and oranges and cookies to eat on the way. On mission days all flying crewmen, even those not going on the mission, get all the fried eggs they want for breakfast. That's the only day they have eggs. The crewmen wear their regular clothes on missions, usually coveralls. They don't have to wear heavy fleece-lined clothes and all that bulky gear, because the cabin is heated. They do slip on their heavy steel "flak vests" as they approach the target. They don't have to wear oxygen masks except when they're over the target, for the cabin is sealed and "pressurized" - simulating a constant altitude of 8,000 feet. Once in a great while one of the plexiglass "blisters" where the gunners sit will blow out from the strong pressure inside, and then everybody better grab his oxygen mask in an awful hurry. The crew always wears the oxygen mask over the target, because a shell through the plane "depressurizes" the cabin instantly, and they'd pass out. The boys speak frequently of the unbelievably high winds they hit at high altitudes over Japan. It's nothing unusual to have a 150-milean-hour wind, and my nephew, Jack Bales, said that one day his plane hit a wind of 250 miles an hour. • • • There are five officers and six enlisted men on the crew of a B-29. All the enlisted men of a /crew stay in the same hut, because that's the way the boys want it. Thus there are usually three crews of six men each in a Quonset hut. "My" crew is a grand bunch of boys, as I suppose most of them are. They have trouble sleeping the night before a mission, and they're tense before the takeoff. As one of them laughingly said at the plane just before takeoff one morning "How do you get rid of that empty feeling in your chest?" But they relax and expand and practically float away with good feeling once they get back and have another one safely under their belts. The six enlisted men of "my" crew are Sgts. Joe Corcoran of Woodhaven, L. I.; Fauad Smith of Des Moines, N. M. (near Raton); Joe McQuade of Gallup, N. M.; J ohn Devaney of Columbus, Ohio; Norbert Springman of Wilmont, Minn., and Eugene Florio of Chicago. Springman and Florio are radio men, and all the others are gunners. Sergeant Corcoran is the oldest of the crew. The first time I walked into their hut he called from his cot, "Hi Ernie, the last time I saw you was in the Stork club." "But I've never been in the Stork club in my life," I said. So we puzzled over that a while, and finally decided it must have been two other guys, or else I'm living a double life which I don't know about. Sa,rge' Continue• To Ply Trade 1 Sergeatl.t Corcoran was a chiropractor before the war, and still gives the boys amateur treatments. He practiced for three years at Jamaica, L. I., and had a fine business worked up. I asked him how a chiropractor ever wound up to be a side-gunner on a B-29, and he said damned if he knew. It's unusual to find two men from thinly populated New Mexico on the same crew. Smith and McQuade never knew each other until they met on this crew, and then it turned out they had joined the army the very same day. Now they are great buddies. McQuade was a fireman on the Santa Fe, and Smith owned a grocery store, but finally had to sell it. They'd just had letters saying it was below zero back home, and they were at least thankful to be away from that. Both the boys have had experiences. McQuade made two trips to the Aleutians as a gunner on a ship. And Smith is serving his second tour of aerial combat overseas. Smith was in the South Pacific in the early days, and flew 53 missions as gunner on B-17s. He has all his missions painted on the back of his leather flying-jacketyellow bombs for the South Pacific, and red ones for Japan. He says he's only got room for 27 more missions on his jacket, and then he'll just have to quit. I asked Sergeant Smith if he hated to come back overseas as badly as I did. "Twice as bad," he said. "You couldn't." "Well, as bad then," he said. "But I haven't griped so much about it since we got here. It's not near as bad as I expected. In fact we're living as good here as we did in America." Sergeant Smith's odd first nameFauad- is Syrian. He is growing a funny little rectangular goatee, black as coal. I asked him how long he was going to keep it. He said, "Probably only until the colonel happens to notice it." Smith and Corcoran are the only two sergeants on the crew who are married. Both their wives are living temporarily in California. B-29 Takeoff an Exciting Spectacle I've always felt the great 500-mile auto race at Indianapolis to be the most intriguing event - in terms of human suspense - that I've ever known. The start of a B-29 mission to Tokyo, from the spectator's standpoint, is almost a duplicate of the Indianapolis race. On mission day people are out early to see the start. Soldiers in groups sit on favorite high spots around the field- on tops of buildings, on tops of bulldozers along the runway, on mounds that give a better view- and even a few bold souls stand at the very end of the runway to snap amateur pictures. As the planes taxi out, it's just li~ cars at Indianapolis leaving their pits to line up for the start. You wave farewell and then scamper to a good vantage point. 1298 HOLLYWOO·D Big Bombers Afford Yanks Many Comforts on Journeys Big Tunnel Link3 Crewmen ' Looking at Just Can't Miss I 4-44 Pattern No. 1:zga Is designed for sizes 14.

Where There's a Will, There's-That Number 7 Mrs. Wigton was convinced that her lucky number was seven. "It's extraordinary," she said, "how seven has dominated my life. I was born on the seventh day of the month, and had seven sisters." "Married on a seventh?" asked I her friend. "Well, I was married on June twenty-eighth, really, but it's still a seven-seven times four. And only yesterday I had an enormous bit of luck." "Surely," said her friend, "yesterday was the thirteenth?" "Oh, yes, isn't it wonderful? Seven again. Seven and six are thirteen, aren't they?" I ··········••rt•·····················~ ~ ''HOARSE'' sENSE for COUGHS due to COlDS ...• :I I Hitch's new picture is the muchtalked-of "Spellbound," with Gregory Peck making love to Ingrid Bergman, mystery, suspense, psy· chiatry, fantastic sets by Salvador Dali, and music by the symphony composer and conductor Miklos Rozsa. Hitch has his own theory about music. He gets a celebrated composer to write music for him just so he can stop it. But just why, sir, do you get all that expensive music just to stop it? "You've seen people in danger?" asks Hitch. "People at some high point of tension? Let's do a scene: We're sitting in this room talking, when bang! just like that a burglar enters and points a gun at us. "We freeze. We don't move or breathe. Certainly we don't talk. At any dramatic moment like this there comes a hush. When the danger is over everybody starts jabbering. It's a release to talk, they talk louder, laugh louder. "So in a psychological mystery there are appropriate intervals at which I want the music dramatically stopped-with a hush! "Only 'Spellbound' isn't just a mystery story. It's a love story. There's nothing unusual about it. It's based on truth, psychiatric truth." • "What about 'Foreign Correspondent' and 'Lifeboat'?" I asked. "Same thing. In 'Foreign Correspondent' it was a man hammering away at events, and the woman didn't help things. There isn't anything in there that couldn't happen.

Purely vegetable-a combi· nation or 10 vegetable ingre- In 1944 the average civilian ate 143 pounds of meat. This year the outlook per civilian is estimated at about 134 pounds per person. It doesn't take much mental arithmetic to make us see that we'll be doing with less meat this year than before-but then, you've probably already noticed that trend at your butcher's. As a nation we're greater pork eaters than beef eaters, says a recent survey made by the government, but that will have to change at least for this year. Pork loins, hams, shoulders, spareribs and bacon will continue to be scarce. The higher grades of bee! are going to the armed forces, while lower grades of beef, though not abundant, will be more abundant. Veal supplies are quite scarce as are the top grades of lamb. All of this means one thing for Mrs. America. She will get less meat, and if she wants to get meaty flavor it will have to be stretched. If she doesn't do that, she will have a few meals with meat and others without. There are good ways to stretch meat - old-fashioned ways like dumplings, bread dressings and stuffings, rice, macaroni, noodles and spaghetti. For those of you who choose having meat "as is" in your menus, there are delightful fish dishes to fill in the days when meat is .unobtainable. When you want those precious red points to do the most work for you, buy the low-point cuts and dress them up with herbs, flavorful gravies and colorful vegetables. H ere's a lineup of recipes you'll well appreciate these days: •Lamb Stew With Dumplings. (Serves 6) 2 pounds lamb 2 tablespoons flour Salt and pepper 2 tablespoons lard 6 small potatoes 6 carrots 6 small onions 1 cup water Cut lamb breast, flank or neck meat into 11h inch cubes. Dredge in flour, then brown well on all sides in hot lard. Season, add water and simmer l,lh hours. Add vegetables. Cover and continue cooking until vegetables are tender. Drop dumplings on top of meat and vegetables. Cover and cook without removing lid for 15 minutes. Dumplings. 2 cups silted flour 4 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons lard 1 egg About cup milk * Lynn Says; Meat Needs Stretching: Bread and cracker crumbs are natural for extending ground meats like lamb, beef, pork or veal. Use for meat loaves and patties. Vegetables should start coming into their own for stretching stews, short ribs, roasts, etc. Carrots, onions, potatoes, green beans, tomatoes and cabbage are all mighty fine. Don't neglect such dishes as meat pies with biscuit or mashed potato crusts. The meat mixture may be extended with gravy and vegetables. Make surprise meat balls with rice tucked inside. Or, stretch the roast or braised meat with noodles and rich gravy. Spaghetti and macaroni make a meal complete even if C'n!y a little meat is used. Use cream sauces with diced egg, secr:stmed tomato sauce or tasty gra·ry. r------""T"---------r Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menu. *Lamb Stew with Dumplings Fresh Pears-Lime Gelatin Salad Bran-Raisin Muffins Orange Marmalade Chiffon Pie Beverage *Recipe given.

Liver is known as a variety meat because it has variety of texture and flavor. Here is a grand way to fix it: Liver Supreme. (Serves 6) 1Y2 pounds liver, sliced ~ cup french dressing 6 carrots, sliced 6 onions 1 green pepper, sliced ~ cup water Marinate (soak) liver in french dressing for 30 minutes in refrigera· tor. Brown liver in hot drippings. Top with vegetables and add the water. C o v e r lightly and cook slowly until both liver and vegetables are tender. Beef and pork liver require 45 minutes cooking time while lamb and veal liver need 30 minutes. Whenever it's possible, use a combination of veal, pork and beef in your meat loaves. In the following recipe, the tastiness is increased by using sour cream, prepared mustard, paprika and Worcestershire sauce. Lemon juice adds piquancy to the meat when used, while brown sugar gives a bit of sweetening that you will enjoy. Use a l arge sized loaf pan for baking or shape into loaf when baking in a utility pan. Spicy Meat Loaf.

I SOUND Rental System Service '""-sr CHICAGO-Every American farm acre will have to do a bigger crop producing job in 194}, if world needs for food, fiber and oils are to be met, according to a statemrnt made public here by the Middle West Soil Improvement Committee. "More millior•s of people throughout the world will dEpend upon the products of American soil this year than ever before," the statement points out. "Proper use of fertilizers will contribute more to getting this production than anything else the farmer can do. "The War Food Administration estimates that 20 to 23 per cent of the total crop production in 1944 was due to the use of fertilizer. It would take 50 million acres of land to enable the United States to produce the extra amounts of food that have been added to our national output by the use of plant food. "In meeting the enormous wartime demands for plant food, the fertilizer industry has established a remarkable record. No other industry-aircraft, shipbuilding or agriculture itself-has worked harder to deliver the goods in the right quantity and on time. In the face of labor shortages, transportation difficulties and some scarcities of materials, the fertilizer industry has worked day and night to produce the sorely needed plant food for farmers.'' "Farmers who them~elves have been hampered by shortages of help and equipment can appreciate the problems manufacturers have faced in trying to overcome their dinlculties and produce the much-needed plant food. "In actual tonnage, most producers have been turning out more fertilizer than ever before' in his-~ tory. They have demonstrated by their wartime contribution, that they are ready to meet the ,condi- [ tions which peacetime agriculture will bring. A great soil rebuilding job lies ahead, to replace fertility used up to meet the unprecedented wartime demands for foods, fats 1 and fibers. The fertilizer i.ladustry is I prepared to do its part in providing all the plant food required for this vast postwar improvement and replenishment job." I GEORGE S. RFN SON '';,,·~~~·'%::..

After the caffeine has been extracted, the ground coffee is mixed with calcium protoxide and I small quantities of two catalysts. I The mixture is heated in an oven at about 500 degrees, and the resultbg gas passes through a series of j condensers, the different materials becoming separated one after another by means of distillation and decantation. This chemist has found that the following products can be obtained from 5,070 pounds of unroasted coffee: In the first stage of the process -53 pounds of caffeine, 529 pounds of fat, and 88 pounds of tannin; during the second stage - 227 pounds of acetone, 97 pounds of methyl alcohol, 53 pounds of phenol, 368 pounds of raw oil, 672 pounds of lubricating oil and ammonia, and 520 to 650 cubic yards of hydrogen gas. The oil extracts vary from the lightest to the heaviest qualities. ThPy are raw oils which are said to be suitable for use in motor cars or airplanes. Some of them have a fuel value of more than 10 000 calories. Since the hydrogen' gas obtaiited supplies the neccs~:ary vapor for the process, the total costs of productwn are small. l See In Our Dreams We actually "see" what we dream, but paradoxically we don't usc our eyes for "seeing" in our rlrenm>:.

On Upgrade Reflecting the nation's mcreasing air-consciousness, and the prospects for greatly expanded civil aviation after the war, no less than 51,000 student pilot c:ertificates were issued during 1944 as compared with 35,000 the year previously, the Civil Aer""" nautics board revealed. Interested in aviation because of some relation's service in the air forces or because increased income has permitted training, women represent 15 to 35 per cent of the new students, the CAA said. Most youtl".s from 16 to 21 years of age intend t<' enter the air forces later while the majority of men over 30 plan to us~ their planes for business travel. As a further indication of the future employment of the airplane in American life, CAA said, country doctors and priests have become interested in aviation as a means of serving larger areas and thus overcoming the limits of vehicular travel. CLOTHING: More /or Kiddies Flood waters spilling over the banks of the Ohio river and its tributaries again made thousands homeless and threatened war production. Aerial view shows Newton, Ohio, with a population of 2,000, isolated by the inundation. In addition to cotton fabric pre· viously allotted for low and medium-priced children's clothing, additional yardage has been allocated for the manufacture of about 6lh million more kiddies' garments, the War Production board revealed. Outing flannel, print cloths, broadcloths, poplins, lawns and chambrays will be among the material allotted for the extra children's dresses, overalls, coveralls, toddlers' dresses, jacket type pajamas, une piece pajamss, two piece button-on pajamas, infants' gertrudes, infants' kimonos, infants' gowns, creepers, rompers and crawlers. WPB's allocation of the cotton fabric was part of its program to increase the output of cheaper clothing and thus help cut rising apparel costs, which OPAdministrator Chester Bowles called one of the most dangerous wartime inflationary threats. EUROPE: Span Barriers PACIFIC: Stubborn Foe From the west and from the east the grea~ battle for Germany was begun, with a sorely pressed Nazi command, which once marshalled its legions in triumph, desperately attempting to stem the Allied tide. Most significant of the Allied moves was the U. S. crossing of the Rhine in pursuit of a disorganized enemy, who had broken off the battle to the west of the river and attempted to flee to supposed security behind its broad span, previously uncrossed since Napoleon's time. Smashing quickly through enemy rear-guards, who tried to slow up the U. S. and British advance and give the main body of their troops a chance to escape across the Rhine, Allied spearheads not only reached the historic river in short time but •. :so spanned it with the intention of :->ffording the disorganized enemy no opp>Ortunity to reform his rank!! for a stiff defense of the waterway. To Lt. Gen. Courtney Hodges' 1st American army went the honor of being the first Allied unit to jump the Rhine below Cologl\e.

FARM DEBT: Cut Sharply Personalities Still Affect Relationships of Nations Strain Between FOR and De Gaulle Complicates Postwar Understanding Between Two Great Powers. ByBAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. Some years ago that highly scientific organization, the Smithsonian institution, discussed the possibility of a relationship between sun spots and wars. It was carefully explained that sun spots, which are really great e~plosions on the sun's surface, affected the weather on tbe earth and frequently bad weather in turn affected the dispositions of human beings and might conceivably render national leaders less amenable to reason and more likely to get their countries into trouble. At first glance that seems rather far-fetched but the fact that a clash of personalities can affect the course of nations today, almost as much as it did when people fought at the whim of a king, has been brought out strikingly in Franco-American relations. There isn't much question that the common interest's of President France and the Roosevelt United States would be better served if ;me Franklin Roosevelt could "get along" better with o n e Charles De Gaulle. Of course, it is only fair to say that there are others N h o don't ''get along" with the tall, Jandsome and aristocratic French general. It is no secret Gen. De Gaulle that one Josef Stalin, although he arranged a highly advantageous treaty with l!'rance including some even more advantageous private understanding with De Gaulle, had no desire to invite him to Yalta. But the Roosevelt-De Gaulle differences seem to be recurrent and just when everybody thought, after the latter's visit to Washington when he was understood to have given his colleagues in France the impression that the visit was highly satisfactory to him, came the answer "I regret" to Roosevelt's "respondezvous, s'il vous plais" and the meeting on the President's cruiser off Algiers did not take place. At its peak in 1923 when it totaled over 10lh billion dollars, the nation's farm debt dropped to 5 1/4 billion dollars by January, 1945, with Et;nus-ft'l?

FDR Commentll On Prima Donnas That is supposed to account for the extemporaneous remarks he inserted in his report to congress about "prima donnas." Those remarks, which were universally interpreted as applying to De Gaulle, came as a distinct shock and immediately afterward Senator Brewster publicly labeled them "injudicious." I was following the text of the officia] release in the house radio gallery as the President spoke and had noted the many departures which he tossed off as familiar asides and which helped to g ive his talk the intimate note he desired. But I was startled at what he said following the text as it dealt with an agreement with Yugoslavia. He read the sentence, "We hope that it is in the process of fulfillment" and then he looked up and with just J a touch of what verged on sarcasm in his voice, remarked "But it is not only that, but in some other places we have to remember there are a great number of prima donnas in I the world, all who wish to be heard. J Before anything will be done, we · may have a little delay, while we listen to more prima donnas." That startled me as I said but I 1 must say I did not at first think he 1 could mean De Gaulle. That seemed impossible. However, as oth· ers mentioned it, I began to take it for granted, for I knew that until the procedure of voting as agreed ' upon at Yalta was approved by France the agreement could not be announced. There were other things I upon which France had to be con- ' suited in advance of the meeting, as jl well. The French ambassador who was s eated in the diplomatic gallery j showed no sign whatever that he · was affected by t he words and later he is said to have told a friend that ' it was hardly likely tha t the prima 1 donna reference could have been I meant to apply to France since the President had completed his com· ment on what disposition of French interests had been made and had moved on to another topic, Yugo· I slavia. I That, of course, is a good alibi. ' And it is necessary that there be an alibi for I am convinced that had there been even unofficial admission that the President was hitting at De Gaulle a really diffi· cult situation would arise. It is known that although many people consider the general what the French call "difficile," the French do not call De Gaulle that and his friends and admirers a re warm in their loyalty and would instantly resent any unfavorable comment on his conduct.

My own impression garnered from conversations with persons thoroughly familiar with the French attitude is that "difficulties" were expected to arise in FrancoAmerican relations the moment it became clear that France was not invited to participate in the counsels of the Big Three. It was not expected that the role her armies are able to play would make her eligible to join the military councils at Yalta but the French were ardently desirous of having a place at the general negotiations which made up the second part of the parleys. General De Gaulle was in no mood, when he received the President's invitation, to brook what he considered a further slight. It was clear, on the other hand, that the President felt he had sound, practical reasons for omitting any visit to Paris before the San Francisco meeting. He also felt there were sound, practical reasons for a conversation with De Gaulle. He said there were a number of points that had to be cleared up which required French action before the United Nations meeting could be held. Indeed, I imagine, he felt that he was showing especial regard to France when he offered to review the accomplishments at Yalta personally for De Gaulle. by Baukhage _ Ceiling prices on strawberries will be the same as last year.

IOOTH, RWAUKIE 1Z, IlL "T ET'S go in and watch him L work." That's what Ingrid Bergman said to me one day outside the sound stage at Selznick's studio while Allred Hitchcock was filming ''Spellbound.'' The actors in his pictures will always tell you that Hitch gives the best performance of any one on the set, just like Lubitsch. And the' 'Hitchcock touch" or the "Lubitsch touch" has made their pictures a "must see" with millions. Ritchie's 1uips and drolleries make smart dinner conversation for Hollywood's duller souls. Alfred Hitchcock And yet he told me the other day then was nothing extraordinary abo~~ the suspense-packed pictures he makes. What passed for inspiration with him was observationwatching what actually happens, filming only what could happen. We were in the living room of his Bel-Air home, looking through the window at golfers passing on the course a hundred yards distant. I'd gone up to welcome him back from England. I wanted to hear how the Hitchcock technique had been applied to propaganda pictures he directed over there. He started right off by sa~ing that one of these pictures wasn t propaganda at all. " 'Bon Voyage,'" he explained, "was just a way of saying thanks to the French people and the underground for all they'd risked in helping so many of our boys escape during the occupation. It's a three-reel feature that tells the true story of the escape oi an English flier and assistance given him." "'Bon Voyage,' " he said pridefully, "was _well received." . :rhe ~ngll~h gov~rnment. dld _a ~ughty mtelhgent th,lfg gettmg_ this master of suspense over to direct it. By Ernie Pyle IN THE MARIANAS ISLANDS.-The B-29 is unquestionably a wonderful airplane. Outside of the famous old Douglas DC-3 workhorse, I've never heard pilots so unanimous in their praise of an airplane. I took my first ride in one the other day. No, I didn't go on a mission to Japan. We've been through all that before. I don't believe in people going on missions unless they have to. And as before, the pilots here all agreed®•._WI_._th_m_e_._ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ But I went along on a little practice bombing trip of an hour and a half. The pilot was Maj. Gerald Robinson, who lives in our hut. His wife, inci· dentally, lives at 123 South Girard street, Albu:Iuerque, N. M., :m the very same street as our white house. I sat on a box Ernle Pyle between the pilots both on the takeoff and for the landing, and as much as I've flown, that was still a thrill. These islands are all relatively small, and you're no ;ooner off the ground than you're out over water, and that feels funny. If the air is a little rough, it gives you a very odd sensation sitting way up there in the nose. For the B-29 is so big that, instead of bumping or dropping, the nose has a "willowy" motion, sort of like sitting out on the end of a green limb when it's swaying around. The B-29 carries a crew of 11. Some of them sit up in the cockpit and the compartment just behind it. Some others sit in a compartment near the tail. The tail gunner sits all alone, way back there in the lonely tail turret. The body of the B-29 is so taken up with gas tanks and bomb racks that there's normally no way to get from front to rear compartments. So the manufacturers solved that by building a tunnel into the plane, right along the rooftop. The tunnel is round, just big enough to crawl in on your hands and knees, and is padded with blue cloth. It's more than 30 feet long, and the crew members crawl back and forth through it all the time. Maj. Russ Cheever reported that he accomplished the impossible the other day by turning around in the tunnel. On missions, some of the crew get back in this tunnel and sleep for an hour or so. But a lot of them :::an't stand to do that. I've heard ::ombat crewmen bring up the sub· ject a half dozen times. They say they get claustrophobia in the tunn.el. There used to be some sleeping bunks on the B-29, but they've been taken out, and now there's hardly even room to lie down on the floor. A fellow does get sleepy on a 14hour mission. Most of the pilots take naps in their seats. One pilot I know turned the plane over to his copilot and went back to the tunnel for "a little nap," and didn't return for six hours, just before they hit the :::oast of Japan. They laughingly say he goes to sleep before he gets his wheels up. The B-29 is a very stable plane and hardly anybody ever gets sick even in rough weather. The boys smoke in the plane, and the mess hall gives them a small lunch of sandwiches and oranges and cookies to eat on the way. On mission days all flying crewmen, even those not going on the mission, get all the fried eggs they want for breakfast. That's the only day they have eggs. The crewmen wear their regular clothes on missions, usually coveralls. They don't have to wear heavy fleece-lined clothes and all that bulky gear, because the cabin is heated. They do slip on their heavy steel "flak vests" as they approach the target. They don't have to wear oxygen masks except when they're over the target, for the cabin is sealed and "pressurized" - simulating a constant altitude of 8,000 feet. Once in a great while one of the plexiglass "blisters" where the gunners sit will blow out from the strong pressure inside, and then everybody better grab his oxygen mask in an awful hurry. The crew always wears the oxygen mask over the target, because a shell through the plane "depressurizes" the cabin instantly, and they'd pass out. The boys speak frequently of the unbelievably high winds they hit at high altitudes over Japan. It's nothing unusual to have a 150-milean-hour wind, and my nephew, Jack Bales, said that one day his plane hit a wind of 250 miles an hour. • • • There are five officers and six enlisted men on the crew of a B-29. All the enlisted men of a /crew stay in the same hut, because that's the way the boys want it. Thus there are usually three crews of six men each in a Quonset hut. "My" crew is a grand bunch of boys, as I suppose most of them are. They have trouble sleeping the night before a mission, and they're tense before the takeoff. As one of them laughingly said at the plane just before takeoff one morning "How do you get rid of that empty feeling in your chest?" But they relax and expand and practically float away with good feeling once they get back and have another one safely under their belts. The six enlisted men of "my" crew are Sgts. Joe Corcoran of Woodhaven, L. I.; Fauad Smith of Des Moines, N. M. (near Raton); Joe McQuade of Gallup, N. M.; J ohn Devaney of Columbus, Ohio; Norbert Springman of Wilmont, Minn., and Eugene Florio of Chicago. Springman and Florio are radio men, and all the others are gunners. Sergeant Corcoran is the oldest of the crew. The first time I walked into their hut he called from his cot, "Hi Ernie, the last time I saw you was in the Stork club." "But I've never been in the Stork club in my life," I said. So we puzzled over that a while, and finally decided it must have been two other guys, or else I'm living a double life which I don't know about. Sa,rge' Continue• To Ply Trade 1 Sergeatl.t Corcoran was a chiropractor before the war, and still gives the boys amateur treatments. He practiced for three years at Jamaica, L. I., and had a fine business worked up. I asked him how a chiropractor ever wound up to be a side-gunner on a B-29, and he said damned if he knew. It's unusual to find two men from thinly populated New Mexico on the same crew. Smith and McQuade never knew each other until they met on this crew, and then it turned out they had joined the army the very same day. Now they are great buddies. McQuade was a fireman on the Santa Fe, and Smith owned a grocery store, but finally had to sell it. They'd just had letters saying it was below zero back home, and they were at least thankful to be away from that. Both the boys have had experiences. McQuade made two trips to the Aleutians as a gunner on a ship. And Smith is serving his second tour of aerial combat overseas. Smith was in the South Pacific in the early days, and flew 53 missions as gunner on B-17s. He has all his missions painted on the back of his leather flying-jacketyellow bombs for the South Pacific, and red ones for Japan. He says he's only got room for 27 more missions on his jacket, and then he'll just have to quit. I asked Sergeant Smith if he hated to come back overseas as badly as I did. "Twice as bad," he said. "You couldn't." "Well, as bad then," he said. "But I haven't griped so much about it since we got here. It's not near as bad as I expected. In fact we're living as good here as we did in America." Sergeant Smith's odd first nameFauad- is Syrian. He is growing a funny little rectangular goatee, black as coal. I asked him how long he was going to keep it. He said, "Probably only until the colonel happens to notice it." Smith and Corcoran are the only two sergeants on the crew who are married. Both their wives are living temporarily in California. B-29 Takeoff an Exciting Spectacle I've always felt the great 500-mile auto race at Indianapolis to be the most intriguing event - in terms of human suspense - that I've ever known. The start of a B-29 mission to Tokyo, from the spectator's standpoint, is almost a duplicate of the Indianapolis race. On mission day people are out early to see the start. Soldiers in groups sit on favorite high spots around the field- on tops of buildings, on tops of bulldozers along the runway, on mounds that give a better view- and even a few bold souls stand at the very end of the runway to snap amateur pictures. As the planes taxi out, it's just li~ cars at Indianapolis leaving their pits to line up for the start. You wave farewell and then scamper to a good vantage point. 1298 HOLLYWOO·D Big Bombers Afford Yanks Many Comforts on Journeys Big Tunnel Link3 Crewmen ' Looking at Just Can't Miss I 4-44 Pattern No. 1:zga Is designed for sizes 14.

Where There's a Will, There's-That Number 7 Mrs. Wigton was convinced that her lucky number was seven. "It's extraordinary," she said, "how seven has dominated my life. I was born on the seventh day of the month, and had seven sisters." "Married on a seventh?" asked I her friend. "Well, I was married on June twenty-eighth, really, but it's still a seven-seven times four. And only yesterday I had an enormous bit of luck." "Surely," said her friend, "yesterday was the thirteenth?" "Oh, yes, isn't it wonderful? Seven again. Seven and six are thirteen, aren't they?" I ··········••rt•·····················~ ~ ''HOARSE'' sENSE for COUGHS due to COlDS ...• :I I Hitch's new picture is the muchtalked-of "Spellbound," with Gregory Peck making love to Ingrid Bergman, mystery, suspense, psy· chiatry, fantastic sets by Salvador Dali, and music by the symphony composer and conductor Miklos Rozsa. Hitch has his own theory about music. He gets a celebrated composer to write music for him just so he can stop it. But just why, sir, do you get all that expensive music just to stop it? "You've seen people in danger?" asks Hitch. "People at some high point of tension? Let's do a scene: We're sitting in this room talking, when bang! just like that a burglar enters and points a gun at us. "We freeze. We don't move or breathe. Certainly we don't talk. At any dramatic moment like this there comes a hush. When the danger is over everybody starts jabbering. It's a release to talk, they talk louder, laugh louder. "So in a psychological mystery there are appropriate intervals at which I want the music dramatically stopped-with a hush! "Only 'Spellbound' isn't just a mystery story. It's a love story. There's nothing unusual about it. It's based on truth, psychiatric truth." • "What about 'Foreign Correspondent' and 'Lifeboat'?" I asked. "Same thing. In 'Foreign Correspondent' it was a man hammering away at events, and the woman didn't help things. There isn't anything in there that couldn't happen. 'Lifeboat' is the same way." ~ :I :I COUGH LOZENGES :1 : : : : Get below the gaTglt line with F & F Cough Lozenges.

"Just finished working on the script with Ben Becht." Then he went on to tell what a great guy Ben is. Says they collaborate so well that dialog becomes a kind of verbal shorthand, almost mental telepathy. Hitch feels his pictures are finished the day shooting begins. He says from then on it's a matter ot interpreting what has been created, and that it's possible to get into the finished film only about 75 per cent of what the mind has pictured. In a world where 6 foot invisible rabbits can star in Broadway shows and in which the true story of an English flier's escape from occupied France furnishes material for a Hitchcock chiller I can believe that there is nothing unusual in a Hitchcock picture- nothing, that is, except the flair of the man who makes 'em. nfCI:/ SEN ;,~is':~:f:~sed :d;?o! :E I • • • Vo, Fans Don't Forget Robert Cummings, who's doing ··-iou Came Along" for Hal Wallis, ~ays actors who are in the service don't need to worry about keeping their fans.

Purely vegetable-a combi· nation or 10 vegetable ingre- In 1944 the average civilian ate 143 pounds of meat. This year the outlook per civilian is estimated at about 134 pounds per person. It doesn't take much mental arithmetic to make us see that we'll be doing with less meat this year than before-but then, you've probably already noticed that trend at your butcher's. As a nation we're greater pork eaters than beef eaters, says a recent survey made by the government, but that will have to change at least for this year. Pork loins, hams, shoulders, spareribs and bacon will continue to be scarce. The higher grades of bee! are going to the armed forces, while lower grades of beef, though not abundant, will be more abundant. Veal supplies are quite scarce as are the top grades of lamb. All of this means one thing for Mrs. America. She will get less meat, and if she wants to get meaty flavor it will have to be stretched. If she doesn't do that, she will have a few meals with meat and others without. There are good ways to stretch meat - old-fashioned ways like dumplings, bread dressings and stuffings, rice, macaroni, noodles and spaghetti. For those of you who choose having meat "as is" in your menus, there are delightful fish dishes to fill in the days when meat is .unobtainable. When you want those precious red points to do the most work for you, buy the low-point cuts and dress them up with herbs, flavorful gravies and colorful vegetables. H ere's a lineup of recipes you'll well appreciate these days: •Lamb Stew With Dumplings. (Serves 6) 2 pounds lamb 2 tablespoons flour Salt and pepper 2 tablespoons lard 6 small potatoes 6 carrots 6 small onions 1 cup water Cut lamb breast, flank or neck meat into 11h inch cubes. Dredge in flour, then brown well on all sides in hot lard. Season, add water and simmer l,lh hours. Add vegetables. Cover and continue cooking until vegetables are tender. Drop dumplings on top of meat and vegetables. Cover and cook without removing lid for 15 minutes. Dumplings. 2 cups silted flour 4 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons lard 1 egg About cup milk * Lynn Says; Meat Needs Stretching: Bread and cracker crumbs are natural for extending ground meats like lamb, beef, pork or veal. Use for meat loaves and patties. Vegetables should start coming into their own for stretching stews, short ribs, roasts, etc. Carrots, onions, potatoes, green beans, tomatoes and cabbage are all mighty fine. Don't neglect such dishes as meat pies with biscuit or mashed potato crusts. The meat mixture may be extended with gravy and vegetables. Make surprise meat balls with rice tucked inside. Or, stretch the roast or braised meat with noodles and rich gravy. Spaghetti and macaroni make a meal complete even if C'n!y a little meat is used. Use cream sauces with diced egg, secr:stmed tomato sauce or tasty gra·ry. r------""T"---------r Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menu. *Lamb Stew with Dumplings Fresh Pears-Lime Gelatin Salad Bran-Raisin Muffins Orange Marmalade Chiffon Pie Beverage *Recipe given.

Liver is known as a variety meat because it has variety of texture and flavor. Here is a grand way to fix it: Liver Supreme. (Serves 6) 1Y2 pounds liver, sliced ~ cup french dressing 6 carrots, sliced 6 onions 1 green pepper, sliced ~ cup water Marinate (soak) liver in french dressing for 30 minutes in refrigera· tor. Brown liver in hot drippings. Top with vegetables and add the water. C o v e r lightly and cook slowly until both liver and vegetables are tender. Beef and pork liver require 45 minutes cooking time while lamb and veal liver need 30 minutes. Whenever it's possible, use a combination of veal, pork and beef in your meat loaves. In the following recipe, the tastiness is increased by using sour cream, prepared mustard, paprika and Worcestershire sauce. Lemon juice adds piquancy to the meat when used, while brown sugar gives a bit of sweetening that you will enjoy. Use a l arge sized loaf pan for baking or shape into loaf when baking in a utility pan. Spicy Meat Loaf.

I SOUND Rental System Service '""-sr CHICAGO-Every American farm acre will have to do a bigger crop producing job in 194}, if world needs for food, fiber and oils are to be met, according to a statemrnt made public here by the Middle West Soil Improvement Committee. "More millior•s of people throughout the world will dEpend upon the products of American soil this year than ever before," the statement points out. "Proper use of fertilizers will contribute more to getting this production than anything else the farmer can do. "The War Food Administration estimates that 20 to 23 per cent of the total crop production in 1944 was due to the use of fertilizer. It would take 50 million acres of land to enable the United States to produce the extra amounts of food that have been added to our national output by the use of plant food. "In meeting the enormous wartime demands for plant food, the fertilizer industry has established a remarkable record. No other industry-aircraft, shipbuilding or agriculture itself-has worked harder to deliver the goods in the right quantity and on time. In the face of labor shortages, transportation difficulties and some scarcities of materials, the fertilizer industry has worked day and night to produce the sorely needed plant food for farmers.'' "Farmers who them~elves have been hampered by shortages of help and equipment can appreciate the problems manufacturers have faced in trying to overcome their dinlculties and produce the much-needed plant food. "In actual tonnage, most producers have been turning out more fertilizer than ever before' in his-~ tory. They have demonstrated by their wartime contribution, that they are ready to meet the ,condi- [ tions which peacetime agriculture will bring. A great soil rebuilding job lies ahead, to replace fertility used up to meet the unprecedented wartime demands for foods, fats 1 and fibers. The fertilizer i.ladustry is I prepared to do its part in providing all the plant food required for this vast postwar improvement and replenishment job." I GEORGE S. RFN SON '';,,·~~~·'%::..

After the caffeine has been extracted, the ground coffee is mixed with calcium protoxide and I small quantities of two catalysts. I The mixture is heated in an oven at about 500 degrees, and the resultbg gas passes through a series of j condensers, the different materials becoming separated one after another by means of distillation and decantation. This chemist has found that the following products can be obtained from 5,070 pounds of unroasted coffee: In the first stage of the process -53 pounds of caffeine, 529 pounds of fat, and 88 pounds of tannin; during the second stage - 227 pounds of acetone, 97 pounds of methyl alcohol, 53 pounds of phenol, 368 pounds of raw oil, 672 pounds of lubricating oil and ammonia, and 520 to 650 cubic yards of hydrogen gas. The oil extracts vary from the lightest to the heaviest qualities. ThPy are raw oils which are said to be suitable for use in motor cars or airplanes. Some of them have a fuel value of more than 10 000 calories. Since the hydrogen' gas obtaiited supplies the neccs~:ary vapor for the process, the total costs of productwn are small. l See In Our Dreams We actually "see" what we dream, but paradoxically we don't usc our eyes for "seeing" in our rlrenm>:.

On Upgrade Reflecting the nation's mcreasing air-consciousness, and the prospects for greatly expanded civil aviation after the war, no less than 51,000 student pilot c:ertificates were issued during 1944 as compared with 35,000 the year previously, the Civil Aer""" nautics board revealed. Interested in aviation because of some relation's service in the air forces or because increased income has permitted training, women represent 15 to 35 per cent of the new students, the CAA said. Most youtl".s from 16 to 21 years of age intend t<' enter the air forces later while the majority of men over 30 plan to us~ their planes for business travel. As a further indication of the future employment of the airplane in American life, CAA said, country doctors and priests have become interested in aviation as a means of serving larger areas and thus overcoming the limits of vehicular travel. CLOTHING: More /or Kiddies Flood waters spilling over the banks of the Ohio river and its tributaries again made thousands homeless and threatened war production. Aerial view shows Newton, Ohio, with a population of 2,000, isolated by the inundation. In addition to cotton fabric pre· viously allotted for low and medium-priced children's clothing, additional yardage has been allocated for the manufacture of about 6lh million more kiddies' garments, the War Production board revealed. Outing flannel, print cloths, broadcloths, poplins, lawns and chambrays will be among the material allotted for the extra children's dresses, overalls, coveralls, toddlers' dresses, jacket type pajamas, une piece pajamss, two piece button-on pajamas, infants' gertrudes, infants' kimonos, infants' gowns, creepers, rompers and crawlers. WPB's allocation of the cotton fabric was part of its program to increase the output of cheaper clothing and thus help cut rising apparel costs, which OPAdministrator Chester Bowles called one of the most dangerous wartime inflationary threats. EUROPE: Span Barriers PACIFIC: Stubborn Foe From the west and from the east the grea~ battle for Germany was begun, with a sorely pressed Nazi command, which once marshalled its legions in triumph, desperately attempting to stem the Allied tide. Most significant of the Allied moves was the U. S. crossing of the Rhine in pursuit of a disorganized enemy, who had broken off the battle to the west of the river and attempted to flee to supposed security behind its broad span, previously uncrossed since Napoleon's time. Smashing quickly through enemy rear-guards, who tried to slow up the U. S. and British advance and give the main body of their troops a chance to escape across the Rhine, Allied spearheads not only reached the historic river in short time but •. :so spanned it with the intention of :->ffording the disorganized enemy no opp>Ortunity to reform his rank!! for a stiff defense of the waterway.

It was carefully explained that sun spots, which are really great e~plosions on the sun's surface, affected the weather on tbe earth and frequently bad weather in turn affected the dispositions of human beings and might conceivably render national leaders less amenable to reason and more likely to get their countries into trouble. At first glance that seems rather far-fetched but the fact that a clash of personalities can affect the course of nations today, almost as much as it did when people fought at the whim of a king, has been brought out strikingly in Franco-American relations. There isn't much question that the common interest's of President France and the Roosevelt United States would be better served if ;me Franklin Roosevelt could "get along" better with o n e Charles De Gaulle. Of course, it is only fair to say that there are others N h o don't ''get along" with the tall, Jandsome and aristocratic French general. It is no secret Gen. De Gaulle that one Josef Stalin, although he arranged a highly advantageous treaty with l!'rance including some even more advantageous private understanding with De Gaulle, had no desire to invite him to Yalta. But the Roosevelt-De Gaulle differences seem to be recurrent and just when everybody thought, after the latter's visit to Washington when he was understood to have given his colleagues in France the impression that the visit was highly satisfactory to him, came the answer "I regret" to Roosevelt's "respondezvous, s'il vous plais" and the meeting on the President's cruiser off Algiers did not take place. At its peak in 1923 when it totaled over 10lh billion dollars, the nation's farm debt dropped to 5 1/4 billion dollars by January, 1945, with Et;nus-ft'l?

FDR Commentll On Prima Donnas That is supposed to account for the extemporaneous remarks he inserted in his report to congress about "prima donnas." Those remarks, which were universally interpreted as applying to De Gaulle, came as a distinct shock and immediately afterward Senator Brewster publicly labeled them "injudicious." I was following the text of the officia] release in the house radio gallery as the President spoke and had noted the many departures which he tossed off as familiar asides and which helped to g ive his talk the intimate note he desired. But I was startled at what he said following the text as it dealt with an agreement with Yugoslavia. He read the sentence, "We hope that it is in the process of fulfillment" and then he looked up and with just J a touch of what verged on sarcasm in his voice, remarked "But it is not only that, but in some other places we have to remember there are a great number of prima donnas in I the world, all who wish to be heard. J Before anything will be done, we · may have a little delay, while we listen to more prima donnas." That startled me as I said but I 1 must say I did not at first think he 1 could mean De Gaulle. That seemed impossible. However, as oth· ers mentioned it, I began to take it for granted, for I knew that until the procedure of voting as agreed ' upon at Yalta was approved by France the agreement could not be announced. There were other things I upon which France had to be con- ' suited in advance of the meeting, as jl well. The French ambassador who was s eated in the diplomatic gallery j showed no sign whatever that he · was affected by t he words and later he is said to have told a friend that ' it was hardly likely tha t the prima 1 donna reference could have been I meant to apply to France since the President had completed his com· ment on what disposition of French interests had been made and had moved on to another topic, Yugo· I slavia. I That, of course, is a good alibi. ' And it is necessary that there be an alibi for I am convinced that had there been even unofficial admission that the President was hitting at De Gaulle a really diffi· cult situation would arise. It is known that although many people consider the general what the French call "difficile," the French do not call De Gaulle that and his friends and admirers a re warm in their loyalty and would instantly resent any unfavorable comment on his conduct.

My own impression garnered from conversations with persons thoroughly familiar with the French attitude is that "difficulties" were expected to arise in FrancoAmerican relations the moment it became clear that France was not invited to participate in the counsels of the Big Three. It was not expected that the role her armies are able to play would make her eligible to join the military councils at Yalta but the French were ardently desirous of having a place at the general negotiations which made up the second part of the parleys. General De Gaulle was in no mood, when he received the President's invitation, to brook what he considered a further slight. It was clear, on the other hand, that the President felt he had sound, practical reasons for omitting any visit to Paris before the San Francisco meeting. He also felt there were sound, practical reasons for a conversation with De Gaulle. He said there were a number of points that had to be cleared up which required French action before the United Nations meeting could be held. Indeed, I imagine, he felt that he was showing especial regard to France when he offered to review the accomplishments at Yalta personally for De Gaulle. by Baukhage _ Ceiling prices on strawberries will be the same as last year.

Vhere Delegates Meet to End Scourge of War WhenJohnnie Comes~ome Vets Opportunities Under Bill' Explained by I 'G.I.Legion Auxiliary Workers By In this magnificent chamber, the delegates from 44 nations are debatiug questions that may shape the future for generations. This view of the San Francisco Opera house was taken from the first balcony. vVorld Peace Hopes Converge On Conference in San Francisco An Organization With Responsibility, Power Envisioned by Planners By JOHN E. JONES by Western Ncwspaoer Union. Out of the Yalta conference of the Big Three came the electrifying news that San Francisco had been selected for the coming United Nations conference - "We have agreed," they said, "that a conference of United Nations should be called to meet at San Francisco in the United States on April 25, 1945, to prepore the charter of such an organization, a long the line proposed in the informal conversations at Dum barton Oaks." Official announcement came to San Francisco's Mayor Lapham from Acting Secretary of State Jo~eph C. Grew with the further advice that "Representatives of the department of state will get in touch with you in a day or so with regard to necessary arrangements for the conference.'' And so San Francisco, most wes tern of our American cities, founded in 1776, the same year as our Declaration of Independence, becomes the focal point of men's hopes from all parts of the world fo1· enduring peace. San Francisco, the Golden Gate of the '49ers, becol'Y'es now the new Golden Gateway to future security for all mankind. If you take a map of the world and dt·a w lines from Russia to South Africa, from Egypt to China, from C"ntral Europe to India, from the Philippines to the Scandinavias, from Greenland to Australia, and f:-om Canada to New Zealand, all of these lines will cross or converge a t San F'rancisco. So San Francisco bPcornes the world peace center. 'No World War Ill.' Ind icative of the importance of th1s mee ting are some of the staten:er:ts made by statesmen and pre.,smcn. Veteran newsman Mark S!JI!i\'an: "The greatest present 1 e:.?d of the world is to see that t here s!1a ll be no World War III. This is the beginning of everything and the objective of everything." Lt. Cmdr. Harold Stassen, delegate: "I hope that San Francisco lil<•Y mean for the world of to11'crrow what Cons titution hall at Philadelphia meant for the United St;.tes of America." A:1thony Eden, foreign secretary of the British empire: "This may be ti'e worid's last chance to create an <·'frc:tive peace organization combin:n~ re~ponsi bility with power." Attendance at the meeting bears out this importance. Forty-four n:1tinns from a ll continents of the t·<.nth are r e presented .

East meets West, and all of the difRel~ased ferences between them must be ironed out in order to build an orgamzation that will be effective and enduring. Everything Arranged Early. Experienced protocol officers have had to work out in advance details of seating arrangements at meetings -both general and committee-as well as at banquets and dinners, and hotel room assignments. Transportation from air fields to hotels and from hotels to meeting places had to be provided. San Francisco is a cosmopolitan city with a population made up of persons from all parts of the world. Many of its taxi drivers speak other languages in addition to English. Each taxicab carries a sign indicating the languages that its driver speaks, so that foreign delegates may pick out a driver conversant in his own language. Headquarters for the United Nations convention are in one of the large hotels on Knob hill. Meetings are being held in several of the large public buildings in San Francisco's Civic center, such as War Memorial Opera house, Veterans' auditorium and the Civic auditorium. Rules governing the press and the public follow in general the pattern established at the Chapultepec conference in Mexico city, where the press had admittance to all general meetings and information sources from committee meetings. Many of the general meetings are open to the public, so far as space makes th a t possible. It is a privilege long to be remembered to sit in on a session where a constitution of the United Nations is being created. Details to Committees. Much of the actual business of the convention of necessity is done in committee meetings where plans and details are formulated, discussed, changed, and worked up into a cohesive program, to be presented to the general conference. Here differences come up necessitating reference back to committee, often time and time again. It is no easy job to create an instrument to govern international relations acceptable to people from every continent of the earth. But present day transportation and communications have erased the barriers of distance and isolation. There is no isolation, we are a part of a family of nations. Kipling wrote, "East is east and west is west - and ne'er the twain shall meet." But Kipling was probably wrong. The "twain" are meeting where the east and the west come together geographically and spiritually in San Francisco, at the Golden Gateway to future peace and security among the nations of the earth. The peoples of the United Nations look to San Francisco- Australians, Asiatics, Europeans, Africans, Americans - north and south - all have their hearts and hopes in the convention beginning on April 25. Who knows but that in their hearts the common people of our enemy, both European and Asiatic, are putting their hopes in this world meeting for an end to the catastrophe which they started but could not fini s h. Atop Mt. Davidson, 900 feet above the city of San Francisco, is a huge cross. Here annua lly some 50,000 of the city's diverse population have ga thered on Easter S und ays to worship at the foot of this cross. Here all forget their differences of race and creed in a common reverence. Never before has this cross been lighted a t any other time than Holy Week and Easter. Now, howe ver, it is illuminated during the entire international conference- that it may be a guiding light to bring together the east and the west; andin the spirit for which it stands-make brothers of us all in the United Nations of the World. MRS. CHARLES B. GILBERT SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS Tomato Grot ing lmport,ant Project In Victory Garden Pretty House Frock for Matrons A Sunhack- Bolero--or Pinafore ALL odds the tomato is: the B Yuniversal favorite of home Victory gardeners because they will grow 'most anywhere, are productive, a pleasure to grow and to eat. And they are rich in vitamin content. In full sun, on any reasonably good soil with a medium to good supply of moisture, tomatoes can be grown at some season in every state of the Union. Tomatoes do not like shade and they do not like too much nitrogenous fertilier. With these conditions, the plants often grow very rank, but the biossums drop off instead of forming fruit. If good tomato plants are available for transplanting from dealers, the small gardener should purchase them rather than grow the few needed in the average small garden. They are not difficult to pro· duce, however. Good plants about eight inches tall that are well grown are de:;irable for transplanting. Transplanting should not take place before the frost-free date in your community. If barnyard manure is applied to the garden where tomatoes are to be grown, it should be supplemented with four to five pounds of superphosphate for each 100 pounds of manure. Twice that amount should be added to sheep or poultry manure. It is generally unwise to work manure into the holes into which toma to plants are to be set, but a handful of commercial fertilizer should be well mixed with the equivalent of a bucketful of soil where each plant is to be set. In most gardens it is desirable to prune the plants to a single stem or to two stems and t ie them to stakes. The stake should be about eight feet long, driven into the soil about two feet and at least 1% inches in diameter. As the plant develops, side shoots or branches appear at the points where the larg.e leaves are joined to the main stem. These shoots are easily broken out, thus restricting the plant to a single stem. When growth is rapid it JS necessary to go over the plants every two I or three days to remove the new side-shoots as they arise. Care must be taken that the growing tip of the main stem is not inadvertently pinched out. National President, American Legion Auxiliary. The American Legion Auxiliary, ever since its organization, has centered its work on aiding the war veteran and his family. The Auxiliary in past years has aided veterans of the last war. With the increasing number of veterans in the present war, the Auxiliary has stepped up its program to help the veteran in every possible way. A million veterans returned home in 1944. More and more are coming home each month. There are bound to be questions they will want to ask and problems they will have to J solve. To ease this burden the Auxiliary under the leadership of its national president, Mrs. Charles B. Gilbert of Norwich, Conn., has prePared questions and answers on some of the problems which will affect the veterans and their families.

It was new then hnd interesting. Defore that. competition was unuerstood tc f:XiSt between people aLd firms in the same indu ;trymerchant vs. merchant, railroad vs. r~.ilroad, sawmill v.:;. sawmill, etc. But afte.r \\T(Irld Wnr I it wt.<s a clwngPd business world, plain to see. Among the modest newcomers in that ren.ote era was a product called !·ayDn. It was manufactured in the form of yarn, like wool and cotton yarns. The price to w~avers w::ts $2.80 a pound against 501'· for cotton ~ ;JnJ. Last year 55~ a pound was the price of both rayor. and cotton y:un!>, and rayon was on the market as a fihre, very much like cotton fibre, but less expensive. Rayon Has G1·own Back in 1919 the American people bought less than 2% as much rayon HS cotton. Last year the ratio was 20% and rayon had captured -quite a slice of cotton's export demand. Europeans earn less than Americ-ans and they pay more attention to a low price. If it were not for the war using up all both industries can produce rayon would probably lje giving cotton some tough competition. When the war ends these two big industries are faced with a struggle for sales in world markets. It is anybody's guess now how the strug~le will turn out, but King Cotton is not licked. The cotton industry is ~:>ti II much bigger; still employs more pPople than clny other American industry. Besides, smart cotton men understand how rayon made its remarkable gains. Volume and Wages Rayon started nut the A11'1erican way. It had relatively large investments in machinery. With good tools it turned out large volumes of rayon per worker. On a basis of big results from their day's work the men who worked dn.w good wages. At the same time lai ge outputs of rayon r•er man every day made it possible for prices to go lo,ver and lowe1· each year, sales to become bigger and bigger. Working people in America hav~ a right to live well. When they eam good wages the;y flo live well. Money they spend is the very life lJlood of national prosperity. But hefore they can earn good pay they have to turn out lots of merchandise per worker. And in order to produce goons in volume they mu t have good tools. It was a l'f'CCessful plan with rayon and it will work with cotton. It Costs Something People s.ay there is a practical cotton picker ready for introduction after the war. It will cost a lot more tban one big sack and a string for each member of a share-cropper's family; it will likewise pick more cotton in a day than they can pick in a week. Efficient tools call for capital investment. It means laying out money, but efficient tools are wo1 th it. PeoPle say we will see many mechanical cotton choppers after the war. It is not impossible. This will increase the number of acres of colton per worker; make more yield per day for every man. The picker and the chopper will create high wages and good living for a lot oi j;>eople. But rayon can win its war with cotton if cotton tries to stay in the field armed with hoes and gunny-sacks, ~ I Reacl A BELL FOR The splendid story of how ar.

Before beginning the actual work. draw a plan of your garden on paper in proper proportions with essential phases of the work noted. Six important points to include in this plan are: The amount and kind of each vegetable to plant; the location of each crop in the garden; planting distances; the variety of each vegetable to plant; the probable planting dates; and succession crops (replanting of same vegetable to give constant supply). Run rows north and south if possible to afford more sunlight; plant tall crops where they will not shade smaller plants; plant perennials at one side so they will not interfere with preparation of the rest of the garden each season. Arranging rows of crops accordi~.g to planting dates makes it possible to prepare only the part needed at one time. Plan for enough different kinds of vegetables to provide well balanced meals and variety, and enough to can for winter use-and plant what your family likes. Make your plan flexible enough to allow necessary changes. Hang slip covers np to <li>' _occasionally - outdoors on a sl1ghtly wind)' day. if possible.

Edward Tufft, editor of the "Optical World," points out in a recent issue of that journal. The lens, he says, has extended man's range of vision to the infinitely large and the minutely small. It has revealed to the eye of man the physical mysteries of nature. It has shown that the sun is the center of our solar system and that the stars in the ' sky move around in space according to fixed law. It has led to the discovery of the cellular structure of the human body and has brought to light the germs that cause disease. The lens guides the aviator on his way and it furnishes new eyes of accuracy to the gunners on the battlefronts. "The lens is a factor in life of moment so great as to baffie imagination," continues Dr. Tutrt. "The lens continues to multiply the whole meaning and purpose of life. Surely, it may be classed with the lever and with the wheel in its countless benefits." Forest Land Of 630,000,000 forest land acres in the U. S., 168,000,000 are not suited or available for growing timber, 77,000,000 are virtually nonproductive as a result of destructive cutting and fire, and all but 100,000,000 of the rest has been cut over and produces only a fraction of what it might. Almost as much usable timber still stands as was cut since the birth of the nation. Records show that the total volume of standing timber in the U. S., was reduced almost 40 per cent from 1909 to 1938, to say nothing of recent intensive logging necessary because of the war. Eleven billion cubic feet of new growth occurs each year - so we shall always have an abundance. Nearly 17 billion cubic feet, or 50 per cent more than total growth, was cut or destroyed in 1943, while in sawtimber alone drain was almost twice annual growth. = 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 o THE BIG 7" VICT'&RY SPECIAl.!

EUROPE: PAFICIC: Defense Pockets U.S. Losses Their front shattered by Allied break-throughs, Nazi militarists envisioned the formation of numerous strong pockets of resistance for a last-ditch stand against the massed weight of U. S., British and Russian forces. Discussed even as U. S. and British armies drove toward a link-up in the Berlin region, the object of the pockets would be to make the war so costly to the Allies as to induce a willingness to talk terms. Recogni"!:ing the possibilities o! such warfare, Supreme Allied headquarters indicated that V-E Day might not be proclaimed until major nests of resistance were cleaned up to prevent a lowering of civilian and military morale because of losses sustained in continuing operations. With U. S. and British forces spearheading across the Reich, and the Russians moving in from !he east, most prominent German pockets shaped up along the North sea coasts and mountainous Bavaria. Naz1 plans for a die-hard stand shaped U!'J as the great Russian drive surged on battered Berlin and 0 . S . forces moved toward a juncture with the Reds in Saxony. With the Russians throwing over 2,000,000 men into the battle, and the Germans concentrating the bulk of their forces against the onslaught, the fight for Berlin became one of the bloodiest encounters of the whole war. As Red forces edged through a network of strong fortifications under rolling fire, the enemy threw in masses of tanks in an ef- For the first time in the Pacific war, navy casualties in the Okinawa campaign ran ahead of the army's and marines', with bitter fighting threa Lening to make the operation as costly as at Iwo Jima. Numbered among the victims was famed War Correspondent Ernie Pyle, whose simplicity of reporting the war from Europe to Asia brought the realism of the conflict so much closer to the nation's folk. With the Ryukyu island chain, containing Okinawa, lying but 325 miles from Tokyo, the Japs put up a stiff fight, throwing in waves of airplanes in an attempt to impede supporting U. S. naval operations. Led by the silken-shrouded Kamikaze (suicide) fliers, enemy airmen inflicted the greatest percentage of naval casualties. In ground fighting on Okinawa itself, chief opposition centered in the southern part of the island above the capital city of Naha, where 24th corps army troops bucked against the four-mile deep "Little Siegfried" line. While fighting raged about Okinawa, General MacArthur's forces tightened their hold on the Philippines by edging into the enemy's mountain strongholds on northern Luzon, and establishing further footholds on Mindanao, second biggest island in the archipelago.

NAVY: Postwar Fleet Although final action depends upon the nation's future policy, tentative navy plans call for a huge postwar fleet of 5,830 vessels and the scrapping of another 6,094, according to testimony released by the house appropriations committee. Of the 5,830 vessels, 1,191 would be combat ships, with the remaining 4,639 auxiliary craft. Plans call for use of 482 of the combat vessels, r.anging from submarines to battleships, with the rest laid up for recall on short notice. Of the auxiliaries, 1,794 would be kept active and the remainder anchored for future demands. Among the 6,094 vessels to be scrapped or u sed as targets are 337 obsolescent combat ships. The remainder are auxiliaries, including landing craft. In addition, it was disclosed, the navy will have some 66,000 other craft on its hands as demobilization proceeds, with some retained and others disposed of by the maritime commission. fort to break up the advancing formations, and sw arms of planes clashed in the leaden skies above. Further to the south, other Russian forces breached the Nazis' Neisse and Spree river lines to smash westward in Saxony for a junction with the U . S. 1st and 3rd armies. While the 1st and 3rd fought toward a junction with the Russians, and the U. S. 9th built up strength along the Elbe for an eastward thrust to Berlin, the British and Canadian forces and the U.

Button-On-Frocks For Old Furniture I you ever guess tho.t I woULD the homely old chair at the THE STORY THUS FAR: American tToops, taklnr part In tbe Invasion ot Italy, arrived at the seaport town of Adano. MaJor VIctor Joppolo, from Brooklyn, New York, was In charge a1 the Amgot officer. With him was Ser· &eant Leonard Borth, to serve as M.P. tn charg'e of security. The Major lm· mediately beg'an to Interview tbe citl· zens of Adano. In order to determine tllelr needs. He was determined that oolblng would be left undone wblcb .,.ould Improve their conditions and make their lives more pleasant. With Borth, Major Joppolo Inspected the former Nazi headquarters, which he was to u~e a1 bls office. He spent bls first hours cet.Ung acquainted. CHAPTER II Major Joppolo said: "Do not bow. There is no need to grovel here. I am only a Major. Borth here is a Sergeant. Are you a man 7 " Little Zito was getting very mixed up. "No sir," he said cautiously. Then he saw by the Major's expression that he should have said yes, and he did. The Major said: "You may greet me by shaking my hand. You will greet Sergeant Borth in the same way." Borth said, and his expression showed that he was teasing the Italian: "First I will find out if he's a dangerous Fascist." Little Zito did not know whether to laugh or cry. He was frightened but he was also flattered by these men. He said: "I will never He to you, Mister Major. I am antiFascist, Mister Sergeant. I will be usher here." :vlajor Joppolo said: "Be here at seven o'clock each morning." "Seven o'clock." said Zito. A brief burst of machine gun and rifle fire echoed from distant streets. Zito cringed. Borth said: "You are perhaps a man but you are also frightened. ·• Major Joppolo said: "Has it been bad here?" Zito started jabbering about the bombardments and the air raids. "We are very hungry," he said when he had cooled down a little. "For three days we have not had bread. All the important ones ran away and left me here to guard the Palazzo. The stink of dead is very bad, especially in the Piazza San Angelo. Some people are sick because the drivers of the water carts have not had the courage to get water for several days, because of the planes along the roads. We do not believe in victory. And our bell is li(one." Major Joppolo said: ' 1Your bell?" Zito said: "Our bell which was seven hundred years old. Mussolini took it. It rang with a good tone each quarter hour. Mussolini took it • to make rifle barrels or something. The town was very angry. Everyone begged the Monsignor, who is the . uncle of the Mayor, to offer some church bells instead. But the Monsignor is uncle of the Mayor, he is not the sort to desecrate churches, he says. It meant we lost our bell. And only two weeks before you came. Why did you not come sooner?·· "Where was this bell?" "Right here." Zito pointed over his head. "The whole building tingled when it rang." Major Joppolo said to Borth: "I saw the framework for the bell up on the tower, did you?" Then he added to Zito: "That is your reason for wanting us to have come sooner, is it?" Zito was careful. "Partly," he said. Now Major Joppolo said in English more or less to himself: "It's a nice picture, I wonder how old it is, maybe it's by somebody famous." The Major went to the desk, pulled out the high-backed chair and sat in it, carefully putting his feet on the scrollwork footstool. Borth said: "How does it feel, Duce?" The Major said: "There is so much to do, I hardly know where to begin." Borth said: "I know what I must do. I've got to find the offices of the Fascist Party, to see if I can find more records. May I take the Mister Usher and look for the Fas"Go ahead, Borth," the Major said. When the two had left, Major Joppolo opened his brief case and took out some papers. He put them in a neat pile on the desk in front of him and began to read: "INSTRUCTIONS TO CIVIL AFFAIRS OFFICERS. First day: Enter the city with the first column.

Major Joppolo, seeing Giuseppe's embarrassment, said: "Giuseppe, I want to speak to the priest of the town. Will you get him for me?" Giuseppe said: "Wh1<.:h priest, a boss?"

JONES by Western Ncwspaoer Union. Out of the Yalta conference of the Big Three came the electrifying news that San Francisco had been selected for the coming United Nations conference - "We have agreed," they said, "that a conference of United Nations should be called to meet at San Francisco in the United States on April 25, 1945, to prepore the charter of such an organization, a long the line proposed in the informal conversations at Dum barton Oaks." Official announcement came to San Francisco's Mayor Lapham from Acting Secretary of State Jo~eph C. Grew with the further advice that "Representatives of the department of state will get in touch with you in a day or so with regard to necessary arrangements for the conference.'' And so San Francisco, most wes tern of our American cities, founded in 1776, the same year as our Declaration of Independence, becomes the focal point of men's hopes from all parts of the world fo1· enduring peace. San Francisco, the Golden Gate of the '49ers, becol'Y'es now the new Golden Gateway to future security for all mankind. If you take a map of the world and dt·a w lines from Russia to South Africa, from Egypt to China, from C"ntral Europe to India, from the Philippines to the Scandinavias, from Greenland to Australia, and f:-om Canada to New Zealand, all of these lines will cross or converge a t San F'rancisco. So San Francisco bPcornes the world peace center. 'No World War Ill.' Ind icative of the importance of th1s mee ting are some of the staten:er:ts made by statesmen and pre.,smcn. Veteran newsman Mark S!JI!i\'an: "The greatest present 1 e:.?d of the world is to see that t here s!1a ll be no World War III. This is the beginning of everything and the objective of everything." Lt. Cmdr. Harold Stassen, delegate: "I hope that San Francisco lil<•Y mean for the world of to11'crrow what Cons titution hall at Philadelphia meant for the United St;.tes of America." A:1thony Eden, foreign secretary of the British empire: "This may be ti'e worid's last chance to create an <·'frc:tive peace organization combin:n~ re~ponsi bility with power." Attendance at the meeting bears out this importance. Forty-four n:1tinns from a ll continents of the t·<.nth are r e presented . It has been r'tlm~tea that delegates and their &ttendants, secretaries, advisersexp2rts on a ll matters of government - total some 1,500 persons.

East meets West, and all of the difRel~ased ferences between them must be ironed out in order to build an orgamzation that will be effective and enduring. Everything Arranged Early. Experienced protocol officers have had to work out in advance details of seating arrangements at meetings -both general and committee-as well as at banquets and dinners, and hotel room assignments. Transportation from air fields to hotels and from hotels to meeting places had to be provided. San Francisco is a cosmopolitan city with a population made up of persons from all parts of the world. Many of its taxi drivers speak other languages in addition to English. Each taxicab carries a sign indicating the languages that its driver speaks, so that foreign delegates may pick out a driver conversant in his own language. Headquarters for the United Nations convention are in one of the large hotels on Knob hill. Meetings are being held in several of the large public buildings in San Francisco's Civic center, such as War Memorial Opera house, Veterans' auditorium and the Civic auditorium. Rules governing the press and the public follow in general the pattern established at the Chapultepec conference in Mexico city, where the press had admittance to all general meetings and information sources from committee meetings. Many of the general meetings are open to the public, so far as space makes th a t possible. It is a privilege long to be remembered to sit in on a session where a constitution of the United Nations is being created. Details to Committees. Much of the actual business of the convention of necessity is done in committee meetings where plans and details are formulated, discussed, changed, and worked up into a cohesive program, to be presented to the general conference. Here differences come up necessitating reference back to committee, often time and time again. It is no easy job to create an instrument to govern international relations acceptable to people from every continent of the earth. But present day transportation and communications have erased the barriers of distance and isolation. There is no isolation, we are a part of a family of nations. Kipling wrote, "East is east and west is west - and ne'er the twain shall meet." But Kipling was probably wrong. The "twain" are meeting where the east and the west come together geographically and spiritually in San Francisco, at the Golden Gateway to future peace and security among the nations of the earth. The peoples of the United Nations look to San Francisco- Australians, Asiatics, Europeans, Africans, Americans - north and south - all have their hearts and hopes in the convention beginning on April 25. Who knows but that in their hearts the common people of our enemy, both European and Asiatic, are putting their hopes in this world meeting for an end to the catastrophe which they started but could not fini s h. Atop Mt. Davidson, 900 feet above the city of San Francisco, is a huge cross. Here annua lly some 50,000 of the city's diverse population have ga thered on Easter S und ays to worship at the foot of this cross. Here all forget their differences of race and creed in a common reverence. Never before has this cross been lighted a t any other time than Holy Week and Easter. Now, howe ver, it is illuminated during the entire international conference- that it may be a guiding light to bring together the east and the west; andin the spirit for which it stands-make brothers of us all in the United Nations of the World. MRS. CHARLES B. GILBERT SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS Tomato Grot ing lmport,ant Project In Victory Garden Pretty House Frock for Matrons A Sunhack- Bolero--or Pinafore ALL odds the tomato is: the B Yuniversal favorite of home Victory gardeners because they will grow 'most anywhere, are productive, a pleasure to grow and to eat. And they are rich in vitamin content. In full sun, on any reasonably good soil with a medium to good supply of moisture, tomatoes can be grown at some season in every state of the Union. Tomatoes do not like shade and they do not like too much nitrogenous fertilier. With these conditions, the plants often grow very rank, but the biossums drop off instead of forming fruit. If good tomato plants are available for transplanting from dealers, the small gardener should purchase them rather than grow the few needed in the average small garden. They are not difficult to pro· duce, however. Good plants about eight inches tall that are well grown are de:;irable for transplanting. Transplanting should not take place before the frost-free date in your community. If barnyard manure is applied to the garden where tomatoes are to be grown, it should be supplemented with four to five pounds of superphosphate for each 100 pounds of manure. Twice that amount should be added to sheep or poultry manure. It is generally unwise to work manure into the holes into which toma to plants are to be set, but a handful of commercial fertilizer should be well mixed with the equivalent of a bucketful of soil where each plant is to be set. In most gardens it is desirable to prune the plants to a single stem or to two stems and t ie them to stakes. The stake should be about eight feet long, driven into the soil about two feet and at least 1% inches in diameter. As the plant develops, side shoots or branches appear at the points where the larg.e leaves are joined to the main stem. These shoots are easily broken out, thus restricting the plant to a single stem. When growth is rapid it JS necessary to go over the plants every two I or three days to remove the new side-shoots as they arise. Care must be taken that the growing tip of the main stem is not inadvertently pinched out. National President, American Legion Auxiliary. The American Legion Auxiliary, ever since its organization, has centered its work on aiding the war veteran and his family. The Auxiliary in past years has aided veterans of the last war. With the increasing number of veterans in the present war, the Auxiliary has stepped up its program to help the veteran in every possible way. A million veterans returned home in 1944. More and more are coming home each month. There are bound to be questions they will want to ask and problems they will have to J solve. To ease this burden the Auxiliary under the leadership of its national president, Mrs. Charles B. Gilbert of Norwich, Conn., has prePared questions and answers on some of the problems which will affect the veterans and their families.

Among the modest newcomers in that ren.ote era was a product called !·ayDn. It was manufactured in the form of yarn, like wool and cotton yarns. The price to w~avers w::ts $2.80 a pound against 501'· for cotton ~ ;JnJ. Last year 55~ a pound was the price of both rayor. and cotton y:un!>, and rayon was on the market as a fihre, very much like cotton fibre, but less expensive. Rayon Has G1·own Back in 1919 the American people bought less than 2% as much rayon HS cotton. Last year the ratio was 20% and rayon had captured -quite a slice of cotton's export demand. Europeans earn less than Americ-ans and they pay more attention to a low price. If it were not for the war using up all both industries can produce rayon would probably lje giving cotton some tough competition. When the war ends these two big industries are faced with a struggle for sales in world markets. It is anybody's guess now how the strug~le will turn out, but King Cotton is not licked. The cotton industry is ~:>ti II much bigger; still employs more pPople than clny other American industry. Besides, smart cotton men understand how rayon made its remarkable gains. Volume and Wages Rayon started nut the A11'1erican way. It had relatively large investments in machinery. With good tools it turned out large volumes of rayon per worker. On a basis of big results from their day's work the men who worked dn.w good wages. At the same time lai ge outputs of rayon r•er man every day made it possible for prices to go lo,ver and lowe1· each year, sales to become bigger and bigger. Working people in America hav~ a right to live well. When they eam good wages the;y flo live well. Money they spend is the very life lJlood of national prosperity. But hefore they can earn good pay they have to turn out lots of merchandise per worker. And in order to produce goons in volume they mu t have good tools. It was a l'f'CCessful plan with rayon and it will work with cotton. It Costs Something People s.ay there is a practical cotton picker ready for introduction after the war. It will cost a lot more tban one big sack and a string for each member of a share-cropper's family; it will likewise pick more cotton in a day than they can pick in a week. Efficient tools call for capital investment. It means laying out money, but efficient tools are wo1 th it. PeoPle say we will see many mechanical cotton choppers after the war. It is not impossible. This will increase the number of acres of colton per worker; make more yield per day for every man. The picker and the chopper will create high wages and good living for a lot oi j;>eople.

Before beginning the actual work. draw a plan of your garden on paper in proper proportions with essential phases of the work noted. Six important points to include in this plan are: The amount and kind of each vegetable to plant; the location of each crop in the garden; planting distances; the variety of each vegetable to plant; the probable planting dates; and succession crops (replanting of same vegetable to give constant supply). Run rows north and south if possible to afford more sunlight; plant tall crops where they will not shade smaller plants; plant perennials at one side so they will not interfere with preparation of the rest of the garden each season. Arranging rows of crops accordi~.g to planting dates makes it possible to prepare only the part needed at one time. Plan for enough different kinds of vegetables to provide well balanced meals and variety, and enough to can for winter use-and plant what your family likes. Make your plan flexible enough to allow necessary changes. Hang slip covers np to <li>' _occasionally - outdoors on a sl1ghtly wind)' day. if possible.

Edward Tufft, editor of the "Optical World," points out in a recent issue of that journal. The lens, he says, has extended man's range of vision to the infinitely large and the minutely small. It has revealed to the eye of man the physical mysteries of nature. It has shown that the sun is the center of our solar system and that the stars in the ' sky move around in space according to fixed law. It has led to the discovery of the cellular structure of the human body and has brought to light the germs that cause disease. The lens guides the aviator on his way and it furnishes new eyes of accuracy to the gunners on the battlefronts. "The lens is a factor in life of moment so great as to baffie imagination," continues Dr. Tutrt. "The lens continues to multiply the whole meaning and purpose of life. Surely, it may be classed with the lever and with the wheel in its countless benefits." Forest Land Of 630,000,000 forest land acres in the U. S., 168,000,000 are not suited or available for growing timber, 77,000,000 are virtually nonproductive as a result of destructive cutting and fire, and all but 100,000,000 of the rest has been cut over and produces only a fraction of what it might. Almost as much usable timber still stands as was cut since the birth of the nation. Records show that the total volume of standing timber in the U. S., was reduced almost 40 per cent from 1909 to 1938, to say nothing of recent intensive logging necessary because of the war. Eleven billion cubic feet of new growth occurs each year - so we shall always have an abundance. Nearly 17 billion cubic feet, or 50 per cent more than total growth, was cut or destroyed in 1943, while in sawtimber alone drain was almost twice annual growth. = 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 o THE BIG 7" VICT'&RY SPECIAl.!

EUROPE: PAFICIC: Defense Pockets U.S. Losses Their front shattered by Allied break-throughs, Nazi militarists envisioned the formation of numerous strong pockets of resistance for a last-ditch stand against the massed weight of U. S., British and Russian forces. Discussed even as U. S. and British armies drove toward a link-up in the Berlin region, the object of the pockets would be to make the war so costly to the Allies as to induce a willingness to talk terms. Recogni"!:ing the possibilities o! such warfare, Supreme Allied headquarters indicated that V-E Day might not be proclaimed until major nests of resistance were cleaned up to prevent a lowering of civilian and military morale because of losses sustained in continuing operations. With U. S. and British forces spearheading across the Reich, and the Russians moving in from !he east, most prominent German pockets shaped up along the North sea coasts and mountainous Bavaria. Naz1 plans for a die-hard stand shaped U!'J as the great Russian drive surged on battered Berlin and 0 . S . forces moved toward a juncture with the Reds in Saxony. With the Russians throwing over 2,000,000 men into the battle, and the Germans concentrating the bulk of their forces against the onslaught, the fight for Berlin became one of the bloodiest encounters of the whole war. As Red forces edged through a network of strong fortifications under rolling fire, the enemy threw in masses of tanks in an ef- For the first time in the Pacific war, navy casualties in the Okinawa campaign ran ahead of the army's and marines', with bitter fighting threa Lening to make the operation as costly as at Iwo Jima. Numbered among the victims was famed War Correspondent Ernie Pyle, whose simplicity of reporting the war from Europe to Asia brought the realism of the conflict so much closer to the nation's folk. With the Ryukyu island chain, containing Okinawa, lying but 325 miles from Tokyo, the Japs put up a stiff fight, throwing in waves of airplanes in an attempt to impede supporting U. S. naval operations. Led by the silken-shrouded Kamikaze (suicide) fliers, enemy airmen inflicted the greatest percentage of naval casualties. In ground fighting on Okinawa itself, chief opposition centered in the southern part of the island above the capital city of Naha, where 24th corps army troops bucked against the four-mile deep "Little Siegfried" line. While fighting raged about Okinawa, General MacArthur's forces tightened their hold on the Philippines by edging into the enemy's mountain strongholds on northern Luzon, and establishing further footholds on Mindanao, second biggest island in the archipelago.

NAVY: Postwar Fleet Although final action depends upon the nation's future policy, tentative navy plans call for a huge postwar fleet of 5,830 vessels and the scrapping of another 6,094, according to testimony released by the house appropriations committee. Of the 5,830 vessels, 1,191 would be combat ships, with the remaining 4,639 auxiliary craft. Plans call for use of 482 of the combat vessels, r.anging from submarines to battleships, with the rest laid up for recall on short notice. Of the auxiliaries, 1,794 would be kept active and the remainder anchored for future demands. Among the 6,094 vessels to be scrapped or u sed as targets are 337 obsolescent combat ships. The remainder are auxiliaries, including landing craft. In addition, it was disclosed, the navy will have some 66,000 other craft on its hands as demobilization proceeds, with some retained and others disposed of by the maritime commission. fort to break up the advancing formations, and sw arms of planes clashed in the leaden skies above. Further to the south, other Russian forces breached the Nazis' Neisse and Spree river lines to smash westward in Saxony for a junction with the U . S. 1st and 3rd armies. While the 1st and 3rd fought toward a junction with the Russians, and the U. S. 9th built up strength along the Elbe for an eastward thrust to Berlin, the British and Canadian forces and the U.

Button-On-Frocks For Old Furniture I you ever guess tho.t I woULD the homely old chair at the THE STORY THUS FAR: American tToops, taklnr part In tbe Invasion ot Italy, arrived at the seaport town of Adano. MaJor VIctor Joppolo, from Brooklyn, New York, was In charge a1 the Amgot officer. With him was Ser· &eant Leonard Borth, to serve as M.P. tn charg'e of security. The Major lm· mediately beg'an to Interview tbe citl· zens of Adano. In order to determine tllelr needs. He was determined that oolblng would be left undone wblcb .,.ould Improve their conditions and make their lives more pleasant. With Borth, Major Joppolo Inspected the former Nazi headquarters, which he was to u~e a1 bls office. He spent bls first hours cet.Ung acquainted. CHAPTER II Major Joppolo said: "Do not bow. There is no need to grovel here. I am only a Major. Borth here is a Sergeant. Are you a man 7 " Little Zito was getting very mixed up. "No sir," he said cautiously. Then he saw by the Major's expression that he should have said yes, and he did. The Major said: "You may greet me by shaking my hand. You will greet Sergeant Borth in the same way." Borth said, and his expression showed that he was teasing the Italian: "First I will find out if he's a dangerous Fascist." Little Zito did not know whether to laugh or cry. He was frightened but he was also flattered by these men. He said: "I will never He to you, Mister Major. I am antiFascist, Mister Sergeant. I will be usher here." :vlajor Joppolo said: "Be here at seven o'clock each morning." "Seven o'clock." said Zito. A brief burst of machine gun and rifle fire echoed from distant streets. Zito cringed. Borth said: "You are perhaps a man but you are also frightened. ·• Major Joppolo said: "Has it been bad here?" Zito started jabbering about the bombardments and the air raids. "We are very hungry," he said when he had cooled down a little. "For three days we have not had bread. All the important ones ran away and left me here to guard the Palazzo. The stink of dead is very bad, especially in the Piazza San Angelo. Some people are sick because the drivers of the water carts have not had the courage to get water for several days, because of the planes along the roads. We do not believe in victory. And our bell is li(one." Major Joppolo said: ' 1Your bell?" Zito said: "Our bell which was seven hundred years old. Mussolini took it. It rang with a good tone each quarter hour. Mussolini took it • to make rifle barrels or something. The town was very angry. Everyone begged the Monsignor, who is the . uncle of the Mayor, to offer some church bells instead. But the Monsignor is uncle of the Mayor, he is not the sort to desecrate churches, he says. It meant we lost our bell. And only two weeks before you came. Why did you not come sooner?·· "Where was this bell?" "Right here." Zito pointed over his head. "The whole building tingled when it rang." Major Joppolo said to Borth: "I saw the framework for the bell up on the tower, did you?" Then he added to Zito: "That is your reason for wanting us to have come sooner, is it?" Zito was careful. "Partly," he said. Now Major Joppolo said in English more or less to himself: "It's a nice picture, I wonder how old it is, maybe it's by somebody famous." The Major went to the desk, pulled out the high-backed chair and sat in it, carefully putting his feet on the scrollwork footstool. Borth said: "How does it feel, Duce?" The Major said: "There is so much to do, I hardly know where to begin." Borth said: "I know what I must do. I've got to find the offices of the Fascist Party, to see if I can find more records. May I take the Mister Usher and look for the Fas"Go ahead, Borth," the Major said. When the two had left, Major Joppolo opened his brief case and took out some papers. He put them in a neat pile on the desk in front of him and began to read: "INSTRUCTIONS TO CIVIL AFFAIRS OFFICERS. First day: Enter the city with the first column. Cooperate with C.I.C. in placing guards and seizing records. Place all food warehouses, enemy food dumps, wholesale food concerns, and other major food stocks under guard.

The old man looked straight at Giuseppe the interpreter and added: "I wish to advise you to be careful, in Ada no are many men who were illegal in America, some men too who were condemned to the electrical chair in Brooklyn of New York." Major Joppolo, seeing Giuseppe's embarrassment, said: "Giuseppe, I want to speak to the priest of the town. Will you get him for me?" Giuseppe said: "Wh1<.:h priest, a boss?"

Radio stations and networks throughout the country rev1sed their programs, cancelled outright _or drastically revised all commerctal broadcasts, when word was received of the death of President Roosevelt. Typical of programs •Jndergoing complete revision was the Breakfast Club's broadcast on which Don McN<.:ill, master of ceremony, paid tribute to the president: "One of the qualities about Mr. Roosevf>lt that I always admired," ~aid McNeill, "was his sense of humor In the tremendous job in which he gave his life he needrd a et•nse of humor for balance. In fact, if he could speak to us now, he m tght say ~omething like this: 'Never mind the flowery language about me - when my time had come the Lord knew I was not an indispensable man, so get back in there and finish off the job in a hurry. and make a peace so binding. so secure, that this may nevPr happen again.

There are other reasons for radio program clicking. Don Neill, the genial m.c. of the program, which is carried over Blue Hybrid Network stations of the American Broadcasting company, would say that the audience's contributions are what makes for the remarkable success of the program. Many fans find other reasons. Some 875,000 of them applied for charter membership in the club in one week. Each program from Monday through Saturday at 8 a.m. will find 600 fans watching the program. Hundreds are turned away daily from the Chicago studios whe.re the broadcast originates. Tickets are now required two weeks in advance. These people come from all the states in the union. They come to see Don McNeill, who has served as master of ceremonies on more network broadcasts than any other man, woman or child in radio. He has spent more than 4,000 hours before the micr6phone, and still gains in popularity. They come to see Nancy Martin, the singing schoolma'm, or songster Marion Mann. They come to see Sam Cowling, the heckler, or Ed Ballatine, the orchestra director, or Ray Grant's Vagabonds. They come to see Fran Allison's characterizations of genial, gossipy, gauche "Aunt Fanny," which are ~o realistic that Fran's mother, back m Iowa, is in a perpetual dither for fear that kinfolk might be offended. They come to make the program, their program. Memory and inspiration time on the broadcast has reached the heartstrings of the Breakfast Club's primary objective of hoeing T orHE cultivating the Victory garden is weed control. The best time for this weed eradication is as soon after a rain or watering as the ground can be properly worked. The Victory gardener has three enemies, all ever-zealous to cause the work and time spent in preparing, planting and growing the garden to come to n<l:ught. These e~emles are weeds, diSeases and insects. · Weeds rob the cultivated plants of water. nutrients and even space and light thJt they rcqUire. After each culli vation to eradicate weeds, the surface of the garden should be left m a louse, friable condition so that the soil can absorb later rainfall. Care must be taken that cultivation be shallow so as to avoid injuring the vegetable plant roots that lie near the surface. And contrary to some opinions, there is little to be gained by hoeing or cultivating the garden oftener than necessary to keep the weeds out. It appears that a former belief that frequent shallow cultivation during periods of drouth was necessary to conserve or bring moisture up to the roots of the plants was a fallacy. At least the USDA is not advocating that kind of cultivation. Mulching, which bas been mentioned in these articles as a conserver of moisture, is also helpful in keeping weeds down. Mulching is necessary only in nonirrigated areas, in periods of long drouth where water is not available. Straw, dried leaves, dried lawn clippings should be applied between the rows and around the plants ear- SNAPPY FACTS a/Hit' RUBBER GAR 0 EN Don McNeill, M. C. of the Break· I fast club program. fans. The prayer and impromptu assignments for D-Day will go down in radio as a classic of the year. When the program was started 12 years ago, no visitors were allowed. This rule was first broken in 1937, in response to a letter from a hopelessly tubercular marine, who wrote that seeing a performance of the club was chief among the things he wanted to do before his final hour. In 1938 the doors were thrown open to all c~mers. Since then half a mil· lion people have seen the pro· gram and watched the "gang" go through their paces.

His greatest honor, however, he says, is the thousands of letters received from his fans. The host of the Breakfast Club was born in Galena, Ill., December 23, 1907. That should make him 38 years old, but he insists that he is only 28. Several years later the MeNeill family moved to Sheboygan, Wise. where Don attended hiah schooi. There is no record of a~y previous schooling. He gained fame in high school by wiMing a flyswatting contest. In 1925, he found his way to Milwaukee and enrolled in the college of journalism at Marquette university, where he edited the student newspaper and tooted a snazzy saxophone. His personal representative, Jimmy Bennett, says that the success of both ventures can be determined by the fact that he is no longer employed as a tooter of saxophones or a newspaper editor.

He was P~Id $.10 a week, whlCh was later mcreased to $15 a week.~ When he recently ~1gned a new nve-yea~ contract w1th the Blue Network, 1t was at a figure shghly above what he was getting at Milwaukee. After receiving his Ph.B degree he decamped to Louisville, where he became one of the Two Professors, a comedy team over WHAS. In 1933 he went to Chicago, took over the not-too-well-known Pepper Pot program and developed the present Breakfast Club. Ever since Pearl Harbor, the Breakfast club calendar has been crowded with extra · curricular activities. The entire· cast has appeared before hospitals and camps. They )lave appeared at the Great Lakes training station on several occasions. When D-Day broke, Don McNeill was on the way to the studio Ht> cleared the way for the omission of commercials, had patriotic music play.ed and offered up a prayer The order was to stand by for roPws flashes and the prayer, which was written 15 mmutes before a1r ttme I !

Cultivation is primarily to control weeds, essential to a well-payin, rarden. • ly, before the soil dries out. Such a mulch is valuable too, around nonstaked tomatoes, cucumber and bush squash plants to keep the fruits from contact with the soil, thus keeping the fruits clean and reducing loss from certain rot organisms that are carried in the soil. When the plant material has been decayed so that it can be easily cut through with a spade, the whole pile should be cut by vertical slices about an inch thick down through all the layers. As the slices fall, they are mixed and should be thrown into another pile for further decomposition. Waiting for a Surger You may have heard that the reason why you have to wait for a Surge is because we can't make very many of them. That's all wrong. During the past year we have been making more Surges than ever before.

Farming and gardening are essentially arts, not sciences. Much can be learned about gardening and farmillg, too, by the facts brought to light in the researches of :scientists all over the country.

The J new material, the active ingredient 1 of which is ammonium sulfamate, has been found to be exceptiollally efficient in the destruction of un1 desirable weeds. 1 It has also been used successfully in recent experiments at the New Hampshire experiment station to kill the common barberry, the alternate or overwintering host of black stem ru;;t. It's not because we are not making a lot of them- it's because a lot of people like the Surge and won't be satisfied with anything else. Pay Good 1 I I I I BABSON BROS.

With larger operations and increased costs farmers must have more operating capital than in 1940, but they don't need 10 billion. in Predmore's opinion. He believes farmers can and will put a substantial portion of these cash reserves into War Bonds. When they go out to sell War Bonds to farmers in the Seventh, \\.'ar Finance Committees throughout the nation will stress personal solicitation.

Home Canning An extensive preserving study has been carried on over a period of months to determine the best proportions of sugar and corn syrup to use in home canning. The study indicates that, with the addition of corn syrup to sugar, home-canned fruit will score high in texture, tlavor, color and general appearance. Some of the fruits tested were sour cherries, peaches, apples, plums, blackberries and pears. The work began when a staff of home economists and a food chemist began to pack jars of fruits in specially arranged home kitchens in Westfield, N.

Although the potato isn't acclaimed for its vitamin C content, nutritionists de:.duce that farm families in the north on winter diets lackmg citrus fruits, tomatoes and other rich sources of vaitamin C have survived without signs of scurvy largely because they ate so many potatoes. Time is saved and it is much more conveneint to prepare potatoes with the skins on, for learmng to remove a thin peel is a skill that is difficult to acquire. Actually, potatoes cooked with the skins on are far more nutritious, since the food value cannot escape.

"Sensational Reading Bargains" Both for price shown in the Advertisement Cold~Frame For the cover of a satisfactory cold-frame.. a storm sash will work just as -weU as a regular hotbed sash. The frame itself c:an be constructed of old boards. A few cracks will cause no trouble, if leav1:::1, straw, or soil is banked along the side. A basement windo"''• preferably on the south side of the house, is an ideal location, with the frame built around it. The heat will then enter from the basement. When the sun is shining on warm spring days, the front edge of the sash should be propped up for ventilation, otherwise too much heat will be created inside the frame. When it is warm enough, remove the sash so the small plants become accustomed to the full t'.mlight. Seeds of hardy vegetables, such as cabbage, onion, head lettuce, and of hardy annual flowers, such as larkspur, bachelor buttons and· calendula, may be planted in boxes in early March and placed in such a frame, using the basement window as a door. When large enough to handle, they should be transplanted to provide space for stocky growth. These plants will be ready for the garden as soon as the soil can be prepared. Frost-tender plants, such as tomato, pepper, eggplant, zinnia and marigold, should be seeded in early April and set in the open when danger of frost is past.

It would have bet!n a good thing for the United States and everybody in it, if the man who first said "excess profit," had used a term that mt>ant exactly something. Excess baggage is everything ·over 150 pounds. of course, and doctors know prcci~::of'ly what o.:ccss fat or excess sugar JS when they find lt. but what is excess profit? Who knows what it is? Quite often it is the unfair u:se or an ugly word. Taxed at 8;; Per Cent There is such a thing as excess profit, without a doubt; easr-,. tv recognize than define. What the ~overnment calls excess profit however, may not always be too much. I think everybody has a right to lmuw just what it is that corporatiOns earn and then have to pay 85 cents out of every dollar back to the government in a special tax. Consider th1s: The war choked out a few firms completely, but a majority kept going and soon found their sales swoll~n by war conditions. Costs increased tau but, even so, most of them are making much bigger prof. its annually before taxes than they did in a good avl'rage year of business before the war. The 1940 tax law calls profits "excess" if they are greater in any one year than the average annual profits of 1936 through 1!13!1. Gift From Government Along with increased costs, born of war, many hig corporations enjoy economies also incidental to war. Costs can usually come down with greatly increased volume, and many manufacturers are selling every. thing they make to the government as fast as they can make it. Some are relieved entirely of sales expense and kindred expenses like merchandising, warehousing, deterioration, etc. Business establishments with government contracts do not offer much protest against a stiff tax on war profits. Business men are able to see sense in it. They have generally given liberal discounts to big-volume buyers whose orders keep plants busy and unit costs down. Government IS always a close buyer ; price cuts to government departments are certainly nothing new. Excess Prices Next Technic-ally, the excess profits taxes that corporations pay now are not price concessions because the firms actually gj:!t the money and pay it back later. It is almost precisely a rebate to the government for its big purchases. The only difference is that our excess profits tax is a law. War contracts are worded to cancel themselves the day war ends, but the ,tax law has to be repealed by Congress or stay in force. If our 85% excess profits tax law is not amended to end with the war, American manufacturers will have to keep on rebating the government after the government quits buying. Selling and warehousing costs will return; there will be no big-customer savings to divide with anybody. If manufacturers pay government 85% of any part of post-war profits, they must hike prices. That will be an "excess," really, and the whole burden of it will fall on us average con~umers. We cari only tlrotect ourselves by havmg proper tax legislation created now, to go into effect as soon as the war ends. LL.

Though OP A later backtracked on its promise to increase children's shoe rationing in recognition of their greater use of footwear, it said 150,000,000 pairs of part leather or com· position shoes would be produced for sale to both youths and adults with· out stamps. However, few of these shoes have reached dealers' hands. Factor in the continued shoe shortage, OPA officials said, was the under-supply of full grown and fattened steers, which produce the best leather. Because stockers have trimmed their feeding of these ani· mals on complaint of unfair ceiling prices, decreased amounts of this leather is available. Forced to view emaciated bodies of atrocity victims near Weimar, German civilians register conflicting emotions. Stories of brutalities have led congressmen to call for harsh peace. EUROPE: Trap Closes With Adolf Hitler himself directing the city's defenses, Berlin stood as a burning symrol as combined U. 5., British, Russian and French armies sought a speedy knockout of Ger,1ap remnants to bring the war to an early conclusion. Of all the savage city fighting of World War II - fighting which left such historic centers as Warsaw and Vienna in ruin-none approached the ferocity of the battle for Berlin, where German women and even children reportedly joined the 500,000 army defenders in a fanatical attempt to curb the Russian steamroller. With both Germans and Russians fighting with a burning hatred for each other, the battle swirled from house to house through rubble strewn streets, with massed Red artillery and air fleets steadily re:iucing enemy strongpoints. Said Russ! an correspondents: "Each stone of the city, each meter of street, is against us. We have to take them with our blood." As the Reds' vise closed on embattled Berlin and Hitler exposed himself to one of the most dramatic captures in history, elements of the two Russian armies attacking the city swept beyond it westward for a junction with American troops along the Elbe and Muld rivers. Meanwhile, stiii another Red force smashed past Stettin to drive westward along the Baltic coast and join British troops whittling Nazi pockets in the 11orth. Working together to finish off the Germans in the north, the allies also cooperated to K. 0. them in the south, with two drives aiming to smash the Nazis' vaunted na'.ional redoubt in the Bavarian Alps and pinch off the great arsenal of Czechoslovakia. In the first instance, the French 1st army, the U. S. 7th and 9th and the Russians rode hard on the enemy's mountain hideout from the west, north and east in an attempt to enter it before fanatical SS men could steady themselves for a stand. In the other instance, the U. S. 3rd army pushed into Czechoslovakia from the west while Russians moved in from the east, with the Yanks also swinging southward into Austria for a hookup with the Reds. Thus was a solid ring of steel forged around Hitler's last important industrial area. In Italy, fast U. S. and British motorized columns and low-flying planes shot up retreating Nazi troop columns falling back on the Alps to the north. Italian partisans fast took over administration of this last stronghold of Mussolini's. POSTWAR SECURITY: Discztss Terms As delegates from 46 United Nations fashioned a postwar organization to keep the peace at the San Francir.co conference, they pondered amendments to the Dumbarton Oaks plan, serving as a basis for sue h a body. Foremost among the amendments were those proposed by China and suppOlLed by the U. S., Britain and Russia calling for the application of justice and international law in settlement of disputes; the referral of changes or development of such law to the assembly of the security organization, and the addi· tion of educational and cultural cooperation to the postwar body's responsibilities. With the U. S., Britain, Russia, China and France dominating the organization through permanent }i 1\RJ\1 VALUES Farm real estate sales continued in large volume in 1944, activity in the first quarter being the highest on record, the American Bankers association reports.

PACIFIC •, Help Guerr;llas ~ Effective in harassing enemy strength in Europe, guerrillas are playing an equally effective role in the Philippines, where their operations behind Japanese lines are helping to reduce their position. While regular American army units tightened their hold on the Baguio district in northern Luzon, · where the Japane~e w7re putbn~ up a l~st stand, ~h1hppme guerr~llas sallied far behmd the front hnes to capture the big port of Vigan and adjacent airfield and clean up the entire province of Ilocos Sur. Meanwhile, Japanese defenses on bloody Okinawa crumbled UHder the terrific weight of U. S. naval, lowflying aerial and artillery bombardment, with the Yanks fighting forward through battered entrenchments. Japanese dead far outnumbe red prisoners, again indicating the ferocity with which they resisted. FRANCE ' : Bombshell With Marshal Henri Petain still commanding a large following, France seethed as the 89-year-old hero of Verdun of World War I and collaborationist of World War II voluntarily returned to his native country to stand trial on charges of plotting against the state. Famed for stopping the G.ermans at Verdun m 1916 when they threatened to break the .,. back of French re- ""''~'- ,, ~~~:~ce~o~~l:!~ Marshal Petaln . f.,.. . . after h1s country's downfall in 1940 for a cooperative policy with the enemy which his followers aver was necessary for him to obtain fair treatment for the stricken nation. Declaring that at his age one had only to fear a failure to perform his duty, Petain said he was returning for trial not only to clear his own honor, but also to protect all of his followers. The peculiarity of the Marshal's position is exemplified by the fact that some of his reforms have been earned over by the De Gaulle government. MEAT· • Supply Cut Ringing true to predictions that the meat situation would grow even tighter, OPA revealed a 21,2 per cent cut in supplies this month from April, with slightly more veal, lamb, mutton and pork offset by about 9,000,000 pounds less beef. At the same time, OPA announced that rationing would be extended to cover 99~ per cent of all available meat items, with only about 5,000,000 pounds of mutton left on a pomtfree basis. Cull and utility grades of veal and lamb and the breasts, shanks, necks and flanks of those meats were put on the red-point list. So that the amount of red points would jibe with the available supplies of meat, point values were upped, with increases of from one to two points a pound for most cuts of all grades of lamb and veal and one point a pound on most beef steaks .. Utility grades of veal and lamb will possess the same ratJOn values as the better types. Keep Troops Moving Approximately 38,500,000 troops were carried by rail in organized movements from Pearl Harbor to the end of February, 1945, the Association of American Railroads discloses. This number, it is said, does not include the millions of others traveling under orders in smaller groups or the millions of servicemen and women commuting on furloughs.

HELP WANTED-MEN, WOJ.UE. NPws AnalYst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF.-There is something significant, I believe, in the fact that this world conference which hopes to plot a happier course for the future of the world is being held at the Golden Gate. I can't help contrasting the atmos· phere with that which enveloped the gathering on the banks of the Seine 26 years ago, which I also covered. I think there is much more hope for success for this gathering than there was for the Paris con· ference two decades ago, although most of us who crowded into its opening session on the Quai d'Orsay in Paris on a sunny January day in 1919, were well supplied with hope, too. I think the meeting place was well chosen and if the agenda becomes unfinished business, it might well be concluded on the same spot where the clean fog sweeps in from the Pacific whose wide waters unite the east and the west. There still lingers on California's shores the memory of its multifold historical national contacts. It was here in ·'Drake's Bay" that the fa. mous English explorer is said to have stopped to repair his ship I say was Drake's bay for later, Cermeno. the Span 1·ard, on a voyage from Manila in 1595, was ship· wrecked in the same body of watel. and gave I.t 1'ts present name of San Francisco bay. The Franciscan missionaries built missions a muleday's journey apart from southern to northern California. The sword followed the cross and Portola's Spanish soldiers fought their way up to what is still called the Praesidio, the very year the American nation was born.

ILL. ~ tJIOf?eA: Looking at THE STORY THUS FAR: The Amerl· ca,n ttoopJ arrived at Adano, a .eaport i11 Italy, with Major VIctor loppolo, the Amgot officer In charce. Sergeant Leon· ard Borth, an M.P., wu to be In char'e of security. Tho Major 1el out lmmedl· .ately to win the frlend1hlp of the cltl· zu11, and to Improve their Uvlng condl· 11ona.

He 10011 determJnecf to replace their beU, wblcb the Germans bad taken. l\lajor Joppolo found that the bell wu the very 1ymbol of their private and civic Ufe ln Adaoo. Be determined to •ecure a bell 1aUsfactory to the people. CHAPTER lD Craxi said: "I needed no bell. I -was on the beach to we1come the Americans. My woman was with me, the formidable Margherita, and my seven children. We were on the beach in spite of the shooting, to greet the Americans. But what did my children shout? They did not shout: 'We miss the tinkling of the bell.' They shouted: 'Caramelle! Caramelle!' They were hungry. They wanted candy. I myself, who had had enough to eat as it happens, shouted for cigarettes, not for the pealing of a bell.'' Borth and the usher Zito came back. Borth said: "It's nifty, Major. All the records are intact. They tell everything. There are lists of anti-Fascists and lists of those who were enthusiastic and the others who were lukewarm. There's a dossier on each important person. It's perfect. Who are these guys?" Cacopardo said: "Cacopardo is my name, at your service, sir. Cacopardo is sulphur and sulphur is Cacopardo.'' Borth said: "I remember that name. In the records it says Cacopardo's crazy.'' Craxi said: "That is true. He thinks that bells are more important than food.'' Borth turned on Craxi in mock anger. '·1\nd who is this?" Craxi was apologetic again: "I am anti-Fascist. Craxi. I believe in food for the moment.'' Major Joppolo said: "They are arguing which is more important, food or restoring the bell. Since we ·obviously can't do anything about the bell just now, food is our concern.'' Craxi looked very proud of himself, but Cacopardo turned to Zito and said: "We will leave this matter to the son of Rosa who was the wife of Zito. What do you say, small Zito, do you consider the food, or the bell more important?" Surprisingly Zito said: "I think i.he bell.'' Major Joppolo was interested by this. He leaned forward and said: "Why, Zito?" Zito said: "Because the tone of the bell was so satisfactory." "No," said C9copardo, "it is bec::~use of the history of the bell. When the bell spoke, our fathers and their fathers far back spoke to us.'' Even Craxi was swept into this argument. "No," he said, "it was because the bell rang the times of day. It told us when to do things, .such as eating. It told us when to have the morning egg and when to have pasta and rabbit and when to drink wine in the evening.'' Zito said: "I think it was the tone which m9ttered. It soothed all the people of this town. It chided those who were angry, it cheered the unhappy ones, it even laughed with those who were drunk. It was a tone for everybody.'' Giuseppe came in bringing the priest. Father Pensovecchio was gray-haired and cheerful, and as he approached the group around the Major's desk he made a motion with his right hand which might have been interpreted either as a blessing or as a Fascist salute. After the introductions, Major .Joppolo said to the priest: "Father, we are speaking of the old bell which was taken away.'' Father Pensovecchio said: "That is the disgrace of this town. I have in my church a bell which is just as loud as the one which was taken away, though not so sweet and much younger and altogether meaningless as a bell. Any other bell would have done as well in my belfry. I wanted to send my bell. But the Monsignor would not permit it. The Monsignor is the uncle of the Mayor. He has reasons for doing the things he does-" Father Pensovecchio ·crossed himself, indicating that the things which the Monsignor did were somewhat ugly; "-but in this case 1 believe he was wrong." Borth said: "It's ridiculous. There are lots of things more important than this bell. Get them some food and don't forget that alleyway.'' Major Joppolo said: "All the same, the bell is important to them." And he said then in Italian: "Thank you for telling me about the bell. I promise you that I will do all I can to get another bell which will have some meaning as a bell and will have a good tone and its history will be that it was given to you by the Americans to take the place of the one which was taken away by the Fascists to make gun barrels." Cacopardo said: "You are kind.'' Craxi said: "I thank you, Mister Major, and I kiss your hand." Major Joppolo said: "You what?" Cacopardo the historian said: "He meant nr offense. 11 is an old cus- tom here. Once the Important people make us kiss their hands, and later when the actual kissing became too much of a bother, it became the habit merely to mention the kissing, as if it had been done." Craxi said: "I meant no offense, Mister Major. I am anti-Fascist.'' Major Joppolo said: "It appears that everyone in this town is antiFascist. Well, we will see about the bell. Now I wish to speak alone with the priest. Zito, you may stay. You are my usher. Giuseppe, you may stay. You are my interpreter.'' Craxi said: "Mister Major, the telegram." Major J oppolo said: "I will try to send it.'' Craxi mentioned the kissing again, and turned to go. When the others had gone, Major Joppolo said to Father Pensovecchio: "Father, I wish to tell you that the Americans want to bring only good to this town. As in every nation, there are some bad men in America. It is possible that some Americans who come here will do bad things. If they do, I can assure you that most of the Americans will be just as asharned of those things as you are annoyed by them.'' Father Pensovecchio said: "I think we will understand weakness in your men just as we try to understand it in our own." Major Joppolo said: "Thank you. Father, I have been told that you are the best priest in Adano.'' The priest said with quite honest modesty: "I am here to do my duty.'' Major Joppolo said: "Therefore I should like to ask a favor of you. Blood and wind rushed into his throat and his throat roared. You must feel perfectly free to refuse me if you wish. I should like to ask you to say a few words before your mass tomorrow morning about the Americans. I shall leave it to you to say what you wish, if you will merely add that there are certain proclamations which the Americans have posted which ought to be read." Father Pensovecchio said: "That I can easily do." Major J oppolo said: "I myself am a Catholic. If you will have me, I should like to attend your mass." The priest said: "It will be a pleasure to have you." Major Joppolo was glad that he did not say it would be an honor. Major Joppolo said: "I shall see you tomorrow then.'' Father Pensovecchio said, just to make sure: "At the Church of San Angelo. It is by the Piazza of that name. At seven in the morning. Until then, son." When the priest had left, Giuseppe said in his brand of English: "You doing okay, a boss. All you got a do now is fix a food." "Yes," said Major Joppolo, "food. We'll go to the ba~eries. But first, do you have a cner here?" Giuseppe said to Zito in Italian: "What ·is the name of the crier? Did he run into the hills with the others?" Zito said: "No, he is here. Mercurio Salvatore. H~ is here. Only, Mister Major, he does not always say exactly what you tell him to say. He will say the general meaning of what you wish, but he will change it some. Even if you write it down, he will change it some." Major Joppolo said: "Will you get him, please, Zito? I want to send him out to tell the people to read the proclamations." Zito went. Major Joppolo said to Giuseppe: "We will go to the bakeries, then we will post the proclamations." Giuseppe said: "Okay, a boss." Major Joppolo looked down at his desk and saw Craxi's telegram. He undid the safety pin and unfolded the paper and read: "To Franklin D. Roosevelt, Capi- tol Building, Washington, D. C. Fremente di gioia per Ia liberta da molto tempo attesa che i vostri valorosi soldati anno dato alla citta d' Adano stop vi prego accettare i sentimenti sinceri della mia gratitudine e riconoscenza. Antifascista Giovanni La Concetta fu Craxi.'' "Giuseppe," the Major said, "let's see how good you are as an Interpreter. Now, this is for President Roosevelt. You must make it as eloquent as you can. What does it say?" "To Franklin D. Roosevelt and a so forth," said Giuseppe. "Crazy with joy because of a liberty so long time awaited which your brave a soldier have a give to a town of Adano. What's a stop?" "That's just the end of a sentence, Giuseppe." "End a sentence. I beg a you accept a sincere sentiments of my gratitude and a r~cognition. Signed a this Craxi. You going to deliver it, a boss?" "Sure," the Major said, "the President will be glad to hear." Mercurio Salvatore, crier of the tcawn of Adano. took a little time to llhow up, because he had to get into his uniform. His face was happy when he did arrive, because he had thought that his crying days were over. Having been a voice of Fascism for seventeen years, he thought that the newcomers would not want his loud shouts. He had taken his uniform off and h;r!nen it in the house of Carmelina the wife of Fatta. He had then awkwardly paraded himself in civilian c-lnthes and the people, having seen him in uniform for seventeen years, laughed at him. "Where is the crier?" they asked each other in his presence. "He has disappeared into the clothes of Fatta which do not fit him," they shouted, and laughed. Therefore Mercurio Salvatore was happy and grateful when he presented himself to Major Joppolo. "I am glad to be able to serve you and I kiss your hand," he said in his husky voice. Indoors he had learned to speak in a kind of whisper, because he knew the strength of his throat. If Major Joppolo had been any other American officer, he would have laughed outright at Mercurio Salvatore. He said: "Crier, I have a job for you. I must explain this to you: the Americans are different from the Fascists. They are different in many ways. For this reason there will be quite a few changes in Adano. I hope that they will be changes for the better." Mercurio Salvatore said: "Yes, Mister Major," to show that he would remember every word of it. The Major said: "In order to explain some of these changes, I am going to post at various prominent places around the town a number of proclamations, which will make everything clear. All I want you to do is to tell the people to read these proclamations. ImJlress on them that the penalties for not obeying the Pr<ilclamations will be severe. That is all." Mercurio Salvatore looked disappointed. "That is not much to shout," he said. Major Joppolo said: "Shall I name a new crier?" Mercurio Salvatore said quickly: "Oh no, Mister Major, I will make something beautiful of what you have said." Major Joppolo said: "The proclamations will be posted before five o'clock this afternoon.'' Mercurio Salvatore said: "Yes, Mister Major," and left. He picked up his drum where he had left it outside the Major's office. Ordinarily he had rriade his first cry in the Piazza Progresso, right in front of the Palazzo, but this time he was self-conscious, and wanted to have a few tries before crying within earshot of the Major. Therefore ~e went first to the park opposite the Cathedral. He rolled his drum long and sharply. He took a deep breath. Blood and wind rushed into his throat, and his throat roared: "Well, you laughed. But you can see that Mercurio Salvatore is still your crier. The Americans are friends of Mercurio Salvatore. The Americans wish to be your friends, too. You have been expecting the Americans for some time, but did you expect the changes which would come after the Americans? Did you know that they were going to change many things after they came? Did you know that they were going to change practically everything except the crier? Well, your crier is here to tell you this." Now Mercurio Salvatore filled his lungs and bellowed: "Opposite me I see Carmelina the wife of Fatta in front of her house. I also see the lazy Fatta leaning against the wall of his wife's house. The crier wishes to thank Carmelina for storage of his uniform during the difficult time of the invasion. He wishes also to address a few words to her lazy husband. It is unfortunate, lazy Fatta, that you never learned to read. It is too bad that you were too slothful to memorize the letters of the alphabet. This afternoon you would have had a chance to read of the changes which our friends the Americans intend to bring about here in Adano. !TO BE CONTINUED) HOLLYWOOD Phones on Street Cars ' Connect Crew, Dispatchers Two-way radio telephones are now used by 13 street-railway companies for communication between the dispatcher's office and supervisory motorcars and emergency trucks, says Collier's. 1 A new device, used in conjunction with such systems, automat· ically records the exact time each streetcar passes a number of suecessive points spaced along it!l route.

In the movies it's always an upand - down career, if not actually tough going. Our producers have doled it out in fits and starts-a number here, a finale there - as if they were afraid we could not take it in more than fiveminute doses. And except for t h e Astaire - Rogers musicals and an occasional "Cover Girl" we've had mighty few that can really be described as dancing films. In this connection, the late Mark Sandrich was one of those rare producer - directors who had enough foresight to cry, "On with the dance!"

There are other reasons for radio program clicking. Don Neill, the genial m.c. of the program, which is carried over Blue Hybrid Network stations of the American Broadcasting company, would say that the audience's contributions are what makes for the remarkable success of the program. Many fans find other reasons. Some 875,000 of them applied for charter membership in the club in one week. Each program from Monday through Saturday at 8 a.m. will find 600 fans watching the program. Hundreds are turned away daily from the Chicago studios whe.re the broadcast originates. Tickets are now required two weeks in advance. These people come from all the states in the union. They come to see Don McNeill, who has served as master of ceremonies on more network broadcasts than any other man, woman or child in radio. He has spent more than 4,000 hours before the micr6phone, and still gains in popularity. They come to see Nancy Martin, the singing schoolma'm, or songster Marion Mann. They come to see Sam Cowling, the heckler, or Ed Ballatine, the orchestra director, or Ray Grant's Vagabonds. They come to see Fran Allison's characterizations of genial, gossipy, gauche "Aunt Fanny," which are ~o realistic that Fran's mother, back m Iowa, is in a perpetual dither for fear that kinfolk might be offended. They come to make the program, their program. Memory and inspiration time on the broadcast has reached the heartstrings of the Breakfast Club's primary objective of hoeing T orHE cultivating the Victory garden is weed control. The best time for this weed eradication is as soon after a rain or watering as the ground can be properly worked. The Victory gardener has three enemies, all ever-zealous to cause the work and time spent in preparing, planting and growing the garden to come to n<l:ught. These e~emles are weeds, diSeases and insects. · Weeds rob the cultivated plants of water. nutrients and even space and light thJt they rcqUire. After each culli vation to eradicate weeds, the surface of the garden should be left m a louse, friable condition so that the soil can absorb later rainfall. Care must be taken that cultivation be shallow so as to avoid injuring the vegetable plant roots that lie near the surface. And contrary to some opinions, there is little to be gained by hoeing or cultivating the garden oftener than necessary to keep the weeds out. It appears that a former belief that frequent shallow cultivation during periods of drouth was necessary to conserve or bring moisture up to the roots of the plants was a fallacy. At least the USDA is not advocating that kind of cultivation. Mulching, which bas been mentioned in these articles as a conserver of moisture, is also helpful in keeping weeds down. Mulching is necessary only in nonirrigated areas, in periods of long drouth where water is not available. Straw, dried leaves, dried lawn clippings should be applied between the rows and around the plants ear- SNAPPY FACTS a/Hit' RUBBER GAR 0 EN Don McNeill, M. C. of the Break· I fast club program. fans. The prayer and impromptu assignments for D-Day will go down in radio as a classic of the year. When the program was started 12 years ago, no visitors were allowed. This rule was first broken in 1937, in response to a letter from a hopelessly tubercular marine, who wrote that seeing a performance of the club was chief among the things he wanted to do before his final hour. In 1938 the doors were thrown open to all c~mers. Since then half a mil· lion people have seen the pro· gram and watched the "gang" go through their paces.

They are inbreeding some of the more popular breeds with the hope ?f egtablishing superior types. In th1s they are following the methods of those who developed inbred parent stock for modern hybrid corn.

"Work done at the Minnesota station with ordinary purebred boars bears out this theory. A cross of a purebred boar of one breed with a purebred sow of another gave pigs that were superior to either parent breed.

Don McNeill is an honorary sergeant major at Fort Shendan and a reserve recruiting official in the marines. He was recently awarded the degree of Doctor of Frustration by the Boswell institute. His greatest honor, however, he says, is the thousands of letters received from his fans. The host of the Breakfast Club was born in Galena, Ill., December 23, 1907. That should make him 38 years old, but he insists that he is only 28. Several years later the MeNeill family moved to Sheboygan, Wise. where Don attended hiah schooi. There is no record of a~y previous schooling. He gained fame in high school by wiMing a flyswatting contest. In 1925, he found his way to Milwaukee and enrolled in the college of journalism at Marquette university, where he edited the student newspaper and tooted a snazzy saxophone. His personal representative, Jimmy Bennett, says that the success of both ventures can be determined by the fact that he is no longer employed as a tooter of saxophones or a newspaper editor.

Such a mulch is valuable too, around nonstaked tomatoes, cucumber and bush squash plants to keep the fruits from contact with the soil, thus keeping the fruits clean and reducing loss from certain rot organisms that are carried in the soil. When the plant material has been decayed so that it can be easily cut through with a spade, the whole pile should be cut by vertical slices about an inch thick down through all the layers. As the slices fall, they are mixed and should be thrown into another pile for further decomposition.

Home Canning An extensive preserving study has been carried on over a period of months to determine the best proportions of sugar and corn syrup to use in home canning. The study indicates that, with the addition of corn syrup to sugar, home-canned fruit will score high in texture, tlavor, color and general appearance. Some of the fruits tested were sour cherries, peaches, apples, plums, blackberries and pears. The work began when a staff of home economists and a food chemist began to pack jars of fruits in specially arranged home kitchens in Westfield, N.

Although the potato isn't acclaimed for its vitamin C content, nutritionists de:.duce that farm families in the north on winter diets lackmg citrus fruits, tomatoes and other rich sources of vaitamin C have survived without signs of scurvy largely because they ate so many potatoes. Time is saved and it is much more conveneint to prepare potatoes with the skins on, for learmng to remove a thin peel is a skill that is difficult to acquire. Actually, potatoes cooked with the skins on are far more nutritious, since the food value cannot escape. In flavor and food value, the steamea potato holds first pl;Jre, the boiled potato comes secuuJ, and the baked potato third, as ranked by nutrition experts. "Sensational Reading Bargains" Both for price shown in the Advertisement Cold~Frame For the cover of a satisfactory cold-frame.. a storm sash will work just as -weU as a regular hotbed sash. The frame itself c:an be constructed of old boards. A few cracks will cause no trouble, if leav1:::1, straw, or soil is banked along the side. A basement windo"''• preferably on the south side of the house, is an ideal location, with the frame built around it. The heat will then enter from the basement. When the sun is shining on warm spring days, the front edge of the sash should be propped up for ventilation, otherwise too much heat will be created inside the frame. When it is warm enough, remove the sash so the small plants become accustomed to the full t'.mlight. Seeds of hardy vegetables, such as cabbage, onion, head lettuce, and of hardy annual flowers, such as larkspur, bachelor buttons and· calendula, may be planted in boxes in early March and placed in such a frame, using the basement window as a door. When large enough to handle, they should be transplanted to provide space for stocky growth. These plants will be ready for the garden as soon as the soil can be prepared. Frost-tender plants, such as tomato, pepper, eggplant, zinnia and marigold, should be seeded in early April and set in the open when danger of frost is past.

It would have bet!n a good thing for the United States and everybody in it, if the man who first said "excess profit," had used a term that mt>ant exactly something. Excess baggage is everything ·over 150 pounds. of course, and doctors know prcci~::of'ly what o.:ccss fat or excess sugar JS when they find lt. but what is excess profit? Who knows what it is? Quite often it is the unfair u:se or an ugly word. Taxed at 8;; Per Cent There is such a thing as excess profit, without a doubt; easr-,. tv recognize than define. What the ~overnment calls excess profit however, may not always be too much. I think everybody has a right to lmuw just what it is that corporatiOns earn and then have to pay 85 cents out of every dollar back to the government in a special tax. Consider th1s: The war choked out a few firms completely, but a majority kept going and soon found their sales swoll~n by war conditions. Costs increased tau but, even so, most of them are making much bigger prof. its annually before taxes than they did in a good avl'rage year of business before the war. The 1940 tax law calls profits "excess" if they are greater in any one year than the average annual profits of 1936 through 1!13!1. Gift From Government Along with increased costs, born of war, many hig corporations enjoy economies also incidental to war. Costs can usually come down with greatly increased volume, and many manufacturers are selling every. thing they make to the government as fast as they can make it. Some are relieved entirely of sales expense and kindred expenses like merchandising, warehousing, deterioration, etc. Business establishments with government contracts do not offer much protest against a stiff tax on war profits. Business men are able to see sense in it. They have generally given liberal discounts to big-volume buyers whose orders keep plants busy and unit costs down. Government IS always a close buyer ; price cuts to government departments are certainly nothing new. Excess Prices Next Technic-ally, the excess profits taxes that corporations pay now are not price concessions because the firms actually gj:!t the money and pay it back later. It is almost precisely a rebate to the government for its big purchases. The only difference is that our excess profits tax is a law. War contracts are worded to cancel themselves the day war ends, but the ,tax law has to be repealed by Congress or stay in force. If our 85% excess profits tax law is not amended to end with the war, American manufacturers will have to keep on rebating the government after the government quits buying. Selling and warehousing costs will return; there will be no big-customer savings to divide with anybody. If manufacturers pay government 85% of any part of post-war profits, they must hike prices. That will be an "excess," really, and the whole burden of it will fall on us average con~umers. We cari only tlrotect ourselves by havmg proper tax legislation created now, to go into effect as soon as the war ends. LL.

Though OP A later backtracked on its promise to increase children's shoe rationing in recognition of their greater use of footwear, it said 150,000,000 pairs of part leather or com· position shoes would be produced for sale to both youths and adults with· out stamps. However, few of these shoes have reached dealers' hands. Factor in the continued shoe shortage, OPA officials said, was the under-supply of full grown and fattened steers, which produce the best leather. Because stockers have trimmed their feeding of these ani· mals on complaint of unfair ceiling prices, decreased amounts of this leather is available. Forced to view emaciated bodies of atrocity victims near Weimar, German civilians register conflicting emotions. Stories of brutalities have led congressmen to call for harsh peace. EUROPE: Trap Closes With Adolf Hitler himself directing the city's defenses, Berlin stood as a burning symrol as combined U. 5., British, Russian and French armies sought a speedy knockout of Ger,1ap remnants to bring the war to an early conclusion. Of all the savage city fighting of World War II - fighting which left such historic centers as Warsaw and Vienna in ruin-none approached the ferocity of the battle for Berlin, where German women and even children reportedly joined the 500,000 army defenders in a fanatical attempt to curb the Russian steamroller. With both Germans and Russians fighting with a burning hatred for each other, the battle swirled from house to house through rubble strewn streets, with massed Red artillery and air fleets steadily re:iucing enemy strongpoints. Said Russ! an correspondents: "Each stone of the city, each meter of street, is against us. We have to take them with our blood." As the Reds' vise closed on embattled Berlin and Hitler exposed himself to one of the most dramatic captures in history, elements of the two Russian armies attacking the city swept beyond it westward for a junction with American troops along the Elbe and Muld rivers. Meanwhile, stiii another Red force smashed past Stettin to drive westward along the Baltic coast and join British troops whittling Nazi pockets in the 11orth. Working together to finish off the Germans in the north, the allies also cooperated to K. 0. them in the south, with two drives aiming to smash the Nazis' vaunted na'.ional redoubt in the Bavarian Alps and pinch off the great arsenal of Czechoslovakia. In the first instance, the French 1st army, the U. S. 7th and 9th and the Russians rode hard on the enemy's mountain hideout from the west, north and east in an attempt to enter it before fanatical SS men could steady themselves for a stand. In the other instance, the U. S. 3rd army pushed into Czechoslovakia from the west while Russians moved in from the east, with the Yanks also swinging southward into Austria for a hookup with the Reds. Thus was a solid ring of steel forged around Hitler's last important industrial area. In Italy, fast U. S. and British motorized columns and low-flying planes shot up retreating Nazi troop columns falling back on the Alps to the north. Italian partisans fast took over administration of this last stronghold of Mussolini's. POSTWAR SECURITY: Discztss Terms As delegates from 46 United Nations fashioned a postwar organization to keep the peace at the San Francir.co conference, they pondered amendments to the Dumbarton Oaks plan, serving as a basis for sue h a body. Foremost among the amendments were those proposed by China and suppOlLed by the U. S., Britain and Russia calling for the application of justice and international law in settlement of disputes; the referral of changes or development of such law to the assembly of the security organization, and the addi· tion of educational and cultural cooperation to the postwar body's responsibilities. With the U. S., Britain, Russia, China and France dominating the organization through permanent }i 1\RJ\1 VALUES Farm real estate sales continued in large volume in 1944, activity in the first quarter being the highest on record, the American Bankers association reports.

PACIFIC •, Help Guerr;llas ~ Effective in harassing enemy strength in Europe, guerrillas are playing an equally effective role in the Philippines, where their operations behind Japanese lines are helping to reduce their position. While regular American army units tightened their hold on the Baguio district in northern Luzon, · where the Japane~e w7re putbn~ up a l~st stand, ~h1hppme guerr~llas sallied far behmd the front hnes to capture the big port of Vigan and adjacent airfield and clean up the entire province of Ilocos Sur. Meanwhile, Japanese defenses on bloody Okinawa crumbled UHder the terrific weight of U. S. naval, lowflying aerial and artillery bombardment, with the Yanks fighting forward through battered entrenchments. Japanese dead far outnumbe red prisoners, again indicating the ferocity with which they resisted. FRANCE ' : Bombshell With Marshal Henri Petain still commanding a large following, France seethed as the 89-year-old hero of Verdun of World War I and collaborationist of World War II voluntarily returned to his native country to stand trial on charges of plotting against the state. Famed for stopping the G.ermans at Verdun m 1916 when they threatened to break the .,. back of French re- ""''~'- ,, ~~~:~ce~o~~l:!~ Marshal Petaln . f.,.. . . after h1s country's downfall in 1940 for a cooperative policy with the enemy which his followers aver was necessary for him to obtain fair treatment for the stricken nation. Declaring that at his age one had only to fear a failure to perform his duty, Petain said he was returning for trial not only to clear his own honor, but also to protect all of his followers. The peculiarity of the Marshal's position is exemplified by the fact that some of his reforms have been earned over by the De Gaulle government. MEAT· • Supply Cut Ringing true to predictions that the meat situation would grow even tighter, OPA revealed a 21,2 per cent cut in supplies this month from April, with slightly more veal, lamb, mutton and pork offset by about 9,000,000 pounds less beef. At the same time, OPA announced that rationing would be extended to cover 99~ per cent of all available meat items, with only about 5,000,000 pounds of mutton left on a pomtfree basis. Cull and utility grades of veal and lamb and the breasts, shanks, necks and flanks of those meats were put on the red-point list. So that the amount of red points would jibe with the available supplies of meat, point values were upped, with increases of from one to two points a pound for most cuts of all grades of lamb and veal and one point a pound on most beef steaks .. Utility grades of veal and lamb will possess the same ratJOn values as the better types. Keep Troops Moving Approximately 38,500,000 troops were carried by rail in organized movements from Pearl Harbor to the end of February, 1945, the Association of American Railroads discloses. This number, it is said, does not include the millions of others traveling under orders in smaller groups or the millions of servicemen and women commuting on furloughs.

HELP WANTED-MEN, WOJ.UE. NPws AnalYst and Commentator. WNU Service, Union Trust Building, Washington, D. C. SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF.-There is something significant, I believe, in the fact that this world conference which hopes to plot a happier course for the future of the world is being held at the Golden Gate. I can't help contrasting the atmos· phere with that which enveloped the gathering on the banks of the Seine 26 years ago, which I also covered. I think there is much more hope for success for this gathering than there was for the Paris con· ference two decades ago, although most of us who crowded into its opening session on the Quai d'Orsay in Paris on a sunny January day in 1919, were well supplied with hope, too. I think the meeting place was well chosen and if the agenda becomes unfinished business, it might well be concluded on the same spot where the clean fog sweeps in from the Pacific whose wide waters unite the east and the west. There still lingers on California's shores the memory of its multifold historical national contacts. It was here in ·'Drake's Bay" that the fa. mous English explorer is said to have stopped to repair his ship I say was Drake's bay for later, Cermeno. the Span 1·ard, on a voyage from Manila in 1595, was ship· wrecked in the same body of watel. and gave I.t 1'ts present name of San Francisco bay. The Franciscan missionaries built missions a muleday's journey apart from southern to northern California. The sword followed the cross and Portola's Spanish soldiers fought their way up to what is still called the Praesidio, the very year the American nation was born.

My woman was with me, the formidable Margherita, and my seven children. We were on the beach in spite of the shooting, to greet the Americans. But what did my children shout? They did not shout: 'We miss the tinkling of the bell.' They shouted: 'Caramelle! Caramelle!' They were hungry. They wanted candy. I myself, who had had enough to eat as it happens, shouted for cigarettes, not for the pealing of a bell.'' Borth and the usher Zito came back. Borth said: "It's nifty, Major. All the records are intact. They tell everything. There are lists of anti-Fascists and lists of those who were enthusiastic and the others who were lukewarm. There's a dossier on each important person. It's perfect. Who are these guys?" Cacopardo said: "Cacopardo is my name, at your service, sir. Cacopardo is sulphur and sulphur is Cacopardo.'' Borth said: "I remember that name. In the records it says Cacopardo's crazy.'' Craxi said: "That is true. He thinks that bells are more important than food.'' Borth turned on Craxi in mock anger. '·1\nd who is this?" Craxi was apologetic again: "I am anti-Fascist. Craxi. I believe in food for the moment.'' Major Joppolo said: "They are arguing which is more important, food or restoring the bell. Since we ·obviously can't do anything about the bell just now, food is our concern.'' Craxi looked very proud of himself, but Cacopardo turned to Zito and said: "We will leave this matter to the son of Rosa who was the wife of Zito. What do you say, small Zito, do you consider the food, or the bell more important?" Surprisingly Zito said: "I think i.he bell.'' Major Joppolo was interested by this. He leaned forward and said: "Why, Zito?" Zito said: "Because the tone of the bell was so satisfactory." "No," said C9copardo, "it is bec::~use of the history of the bell. When the bell spoke, our fathers and their fathers far back spoke to us.'' Even Craxi was swept into this argument. "No," he said, "it was because the bell rang the times of day. It told us when to do things, .such as eating. It told us when to have the morning egg and when to have pasta and rabbit and when to drink wine in the evening.'' Zito said: "I think it was the tone which m9ttered. It soothed all the people of this town. It chided those who were angry, it cheered the unhappy ones, it even laughed with those who were drunk. It was a tone for everybody.'' Giuseppe came in bringing the priest. Father Pensovecchio was gray-haired and cheerful, and as he approached the group around the Major's desk he made a motion with his right hand which might have been interpreted either as a blessing or as a Fascist salute. After the introductions, Major .Joppolo said to the priest: "Father, we are speaking of the old bell which was taken away.'' Father Pensovecchio said: "That is the disgrace of this town. I have in my church a bell which is just as loud as the one which was taken away, though not so sweet and much younger and altogether meaningless as a bell. Any other bell would have done as well in my belfry. I wanted to send my bell. But the Monsignor would not permit it. The Monsignor is the uncle of the Mayor. He has reasons for doing the things he does-" Father Pensovecchio ·crossed himself, indicating that the things which the Monsignor did were somewhat ugly; "-but in this case 1 believe he was wrong." Borth said: "It's ridiculous. There are lots of things more important than this bell. Get them some food and don't forget that alleyway.'' Major Joppolo said: "All the same, the bell is important to them." And he said then in Italian: "Thank you for telling me about the bell. I promise you that I will do all I can to get another bell which will have some meaning as a bell and will have a good tone and its history will be that it was given to you by the Americans to take the place of the one which was taken away by the Fascists to make gun barrels." Cacopardo said: "You are kind.'' Craxi said: "I thank you, Mister Major, and I kiss your hand." Major Joppolo said: "You what?" Cacopardo the historian said: "He meant nr offense. 11 is an old cus- tom here. Once the Important people make us kiss their hands, and later when the actual kissing became too much of a bother, it became the habit merely to mention the kissing, as if it had been done." Craxi said: "I meant no offense, Mister Major. I am anti-Fascist.'' Major Joppolo said: "It appears that everyone in this town is antiFascist. Well, we will see about the bell. Now I wish to speak alone with the priest. Zito, you may stay. You are my usher. Giuseppe, you may stay. You are my interpreter.'' Craxi said: "Mister Major, the telegram." Major J oppolo said: "I will try to send it.'' Craxi mentioned the kissing again, and turned to go. When the others had gone, Major Joppolo said to Father Pensovecchio: "Father, I wish to tell you that the Americans want to bring only good to this town. As in every nation, there are some bad men in America. It is possible that some Americans who come here will do bad things. If they do, I can assure you that most of the Americans will be just as asharned of those things as you are annoyed by them.'' Father Pensovecchio said: "I think we will understand weakness in your men just as we try to understand it in our own." Major Joppolo said: "Thank you. Father, I have been told that you are the best priest in Adano.'' The priest said with quite honest modesty: "I am here to do my duty.'' Major Joppolo said: "Therefore I should like to ask a favor of you. Blood and wind rushed into his throat and his throat roared. You must feel perfectly free to refuse me if you wish. I should like to ask you to say a few words before your mass tomorrow morning about the Americans. I shall leave it to you to say what you wish, if you will merely add that there are certain proclamations which the Americans have posted which ought to be read." Father Pensovecchio said: "That I can easily do." Major J oppolo said: "I myself am a Catholic. If you will have me, I should like to attend your mass." The priest said: "It will be a pleasure to have you." Major Joppolo was glad that he did not say it would be an honor. Major Joppolo said: "I shall see you tomorrow then.'' Father Pensovecchio said, just to make sure: "At the Church of San Angelo. It is by the Piazza of that name. At seven in the morning. Until then, son." When the priest had left, Giuseppe said in his brand of English: "You doing okay, a boss. All you got a do now is fix a food." "Yes," said Major Joppolo, "food. We'll go to the ba~eries. But first, do you have a cner here?" Giuseppe said to Zito in Italian: "What ·is the name of the crier? Did he run into the hills with the others?" Zito said: "No, he is here. Mercurio Salvatore. H~ is here. Only, Mister Major, he does not always say exactly what you tell him to say. He will say the general meaning of what you wish, but he will change it some. Even if you write it down, he will change it some." Major Joppolo said: "Will you get him, please, Zito? I want to send him out to tell the people to read the proclamations." Zito went. Major Joppolo said to Giuseppe: "We will go to the bakeries, then we will post the proclamations." Giuseppe said: "Okay, a boss." Major Joppolo looked down at his desk and saw Craxi's telegram. He undid the safety pin and unfolded the paper and read: "To Franklin D. Roosevelt, Capi- tol Building, Washington, D. C. Fremente di gioia per Ia liberta da molto tempo attesa che i vostri valorosi soldati anno dato alla citta d' Adano stop vi prego accettare i sentimenti sinceri della mia gratitudine e riconoscenza. Antifascista Giovanni La Concetta fu Craxi.'' "Giuseppe," the Major said, "let's see how good you are as an Interpreter. Now, this is for President Roosevelt. You must make it as eloquent as you can. What does it say?" "To Franklin D. Roosevelt and a so forth," said Giuseppe. "Crazy with joy because of a liberty so long time awaited which your brave a soldier have a give to a town of Adano. What's a stop?" "That's just the end of a sentence, Giuseppe." "End a sentence. I beg a you accept a sincere sentiments of my gratitude and a r~cognition. Signed a this Craxi. You going to deliver it, a boss?" "Sure," the Major said, "the President will be glad to hear." Mercurio Salvatore, crier of the tcawn of Adano. took a little time to llhow up, because he had to get into his uniform. His face was happy when he did arrive, because he had thought that his crying days were over. Having been a voice of Fascism for seventeen years, he thought that the newcomers would not want his loud shouts. He had taken his uniform off and h;r!nen it in the house of Carmelina the wife of Fatta. He had then awkwardly paraded himself in civilian c-lnthes and the people, having seen him in uniform for seventeen years, laughed at him. "Where is the crier?" they asked each other in his presence. "He has disappeared into the clothes of Fatta which do not fit him," they shouted, and laughed. Therefore Mercurio Salvatore was happy and grateful when he presented himself to Major Joppolo. "I am glad to be able to serve you and I kiss your hand," he said in his husky voice. Indoors he had learned to speak in a kind of whisper, because he knew the strength of his throat. If Major Joppolo had been any other American officer, he would have laughed outright at Mercurio Salvatore. He said: "Crier, I have a job for you. I must explain this to you: the Americans are different from the Fascists. They are different in many ways. For this reason there will be quite a few changes in Adano. I hope that they will be changes for the better." Mercurio Salvatore said: "Yes, Mister Major," to show that he would remember every word of it. The Major said: "In order to explain some of these changes, I am going to post at various prominent places around the town a number of proclamations, which will make everything clear. All I want you to do is to tell the people to read these proclamations. ImJlress on them that the penalties for not obeying the Pr<ilclamations will be severe. That is all." Mercurio Salvatore looked disappointed. "That is not much to shout," he said. Major Joppolo said: "Shall I name a new crier?" Mercurio Salvatore said quickly: "Oh no, Mister Major, I will make something beautiful of what you have said." Major Joppolo said: "The proclamations will be posted before five o'clock this afternoon.'' Mercurio Salvatore said: "Yes, Mister Major," and left. He picked up his drum where he had left it outside the Major's office. Ordinarily he had rriade his first cry in the Piazza Progresso, right in front of the Palazzo, but this time he was self-conscious, and wanted to have a few tries before crying within earshot of the Major. Therefore ~e went first to the park opposite the Cathedral. He rolled his drum long and sharply. He took a deep breath. Blood and wind rushed into his throat, and his throat roared: "Well, you laughed. But you can see that Mercurio Salvatore is still your crier. The Americans are friends of Mercurio Salvatore. The Americans wish to be your friends, too. You have been expecting the Americans for some time, but did you expect the changes which would come after the Americans? Did you know that they were going to change many things after they came? Did you know that they were going to change practically everything except the crier? Well, your crier is here to tell you this." Now Mercurio Salvatore filled his lungs and bellowed: "Opposite me I see Carmelina the wife of Fatta in front of her house. I also see the lazy Fatta leaning against the wall of his wife's house. The crier wishes to thank Carmelina for storage of his uniform during the difficult time of the invasion. He wishes also to address a few words to her lazy husband. It is unfortunate, lazy Fatta, that you never learned to read. It is too bad that you were too slothful to memorize the letters of the alphabet. This afternoon you would have had a chance to read of the changes which our friends the Americans intend to bring about here in Adano. !TO BE CONTINUED) HOLLYWOOD Phones on Street Cars ' Connect Crew, Dispatchers Two-way radio telephones are now used by 13 street-railway companies for communication between the dispatcher's office and supervisory motorcars and emergency trucks, says Collier's. 1 A new device, used in conjunction with such systems, automat· ically records the exact time each streetcar passes a number of suecessive points spaced along it!l route.

In the movies it's always an upand - down career, if not actually tough going. Our producers have doled it out in fits and starts-a number here, a finale there - as if they were afraid we could not take it in more than fiveminute doses. And except for t h e Astaire - Rogers musicals and an occasional "Cover Girl" we've had mighty few that can really be described as dancing films. In this connection, the late Mark Sandrich was one of those rare producer - directors who had enough foresight to cry, "On with the dance!"

To make the weight of his armed might felt, Uncle Sam must have ships, more ships and still TlurP ships in order to transport his fighting men to the battle fronts.

The War Shipping administration, charged with train· ing and recruiting seamen, has expanded the merchant marine cadet corps for the training of ships' officers, the maritime service for training and upgrading seamen and the recruitment and manning organization for procurement of experienced seamen. The training organization of WSA trained and graduated 11,300 men for ships' officers and trained or upgraded 76,400 seamen in 1944. The recruitment and manning organization, supplementing efforts of ooerating companies and maritime unions to procure crews, recruited 1 30,000 experienced seamen from shore jobs in 1044.

Incidentally, one of the breathtaking innovations of this war was the creation of artificial harbors on the Normandy coast to permit unloading of troops and supplies for the invasion of France. Thirty-two obsolete or badly damaged vessels were sun!~ to form breakwaters, buttressed by concrete piers constructed especially for the purpose in England and towed across the channel by tugs. One thousand merchant seamen volunteered for the task . The artificial harbors replaced some of the advantages of the I I trained more than 190,000 Americans as officers and seamen to m.an our wartime merchant fleet. These 190,000 Americans who volunteered their service to their country are civilians and have no military status. But they have heroically risked. their lives just as much as have our soldiers, sailors, marines and coastguardsmen who have met the enemy in mortal combat on land, on sea and in the air. Despite the fact that improveme.nt in methods of protecting Allied convoys and of curbing the submarine m enace had greatly reduced the hazards of sailing in 1944, the fact remains that up to April, 1945, the merchant marine has suffered 6,057 casualties -5,522 dead and missing and 535 prisoners of war. And it is significant too that the merchant marine distinguished service medal, awarded for outstanding acts of heroism by merchant seamen, has been presented to more than 100 of these merchant seamen for action after September l, 1939. All of which are reasons- though there are many, many morewhy all Americans should join in honoring these valiant fighters for freedom on National Maritime Day, May 22. Ready for sea-and ready to learn. At the gates of Sheepshead bay, the world's greatest merchant marine training station, outgoing U.S. maritime service trained apprentice seamen greet incoming class of eager enrollees.

If he !"us a wife and child and an aged p<:rent to suppot1, each individual must subs1st on about $10 a week. How well the people of any nation live is a similar matter. It dept•nds upon the nat10na. income and how it is dividt>d. Just like family income, national income changes from year to year and it is not always divided the same way. National incr.mc is the grand total of what everybody in the nation earns. It includes all wages, sularies, farm yields, interest, rents, profits and dividends. How About Now? The United States Department of Commerce keeps track of our national income figures pretty well, yt-ar by year. Already we know that the income of all Americans totaled J60.1l billion do'lars in J!l44 and that \'.OJke1·s got 72% of it, or 116 billion dollars. By "workers,'' I mean people who draw wages and small c:lerical salanes. Corporation profits that year ran just under ten bilhon dollars or 6%. There is a popular notion that people who work don't get very much of the fruits of their toil. Not long ago somebody repeated a 40-year-old Pl£>ce of political propaganda to me, IJpJieving it every word. He said, "Here in America 2% of the people have 90','o of the wealth." There is not much to say about this statement: It is not true. It has never ueen nearly true. Official Figures Last year the national-income dollar went like this: 72c to American workers, 6c to corporations, 8c to small businesses in the form of profit, 7c to tanners as return on what they produced, and another 7c to landowners and stockholders in the form af rents and dividends, and tn money lenders in the form of interest. Of course all years aren't alike but they vary less than you might think. · Nntional income bobs up and down but people who work always get most of it. Back in 1939, which was a typical pre-war year, our nat onel income was not half as high .,s last year's; 70.8 billion dollars to bt exact. Then, workers got 68% of 1t and 6% was corporation profit; not r..uch change in how the income wa_ d1vided, but Jess than half as much actual money for everybody. · Ancient History B<~Lk in 1929, the year Hoover succeeded Coolidge as Pres ident, national income was 83.3 billion dollars; bigger then, than in 1939. Corporation profits were higher-9% as against 6% in recent years. But wage earners and office help were getting 64% of national income, even then. In 1932 (the depression) wher. corporations generally earned 9% less than nothing, wages climbed to 97% and still some working people went hungry. Any fair analysis of national in- • come figures over a period of years leads to this observation: workers, laborers and clerical people, get more money with the slightly smaller percentage of a big national income than with the bigger percentage of a small national income. The moral is perfectly clear. We will all fare better working tC'gether for a big national income than by wrangling about who gets most of it, and then having a small one,~~~ in Feed Well over 700.000 tons (14 .000,000 bags) of commercially mi~:ccl fel'd ' containing urea 11s an i11grPdicnt were fed to ruminants in the U11itPd States during the past year 1vith satisfactory results. according to a statement compiled by a special committee selected to review technical and practical backgrounds of urea feeding. Extensive studies at leading agricultural colleges and experiment stations in the United States demonstrate without exception that urea, in scientifically safe amounts, is properly assimilated, the committee said. It can efficiently replace a limited portion of the normal protein in the diet of such ruminants as dairy cows, growing heifers, steers and range cattle. l' Sandpapering Shine When• clothes shine results from wear, sandpaper's abrasive action may raise a garment's nap again. However, the remedial effect will be only temporary and the fabric be permanently weakened. Light scorch effects may be removed by sandpaper, whereas deeper ones will be impossible to remove. And an undesirable weakening of the fabric which may develop into a hole simply cannot be avoided where sandpaper has been used. Removal of heavy-scorch is generally not attempted even by professional cleaners. They can, however, often successfully treat the shine caused by faulty pressing at home. Often, too, light scorches can be removed by 1means of an oxidizing agent. I . By John Hersey Here is a "be:>t sc~Jer" story by the bri!!iant your g war corre.,;ond.nt for Time and Life.

A bench or box fitted with casters will hold the basket, hamper or tub in the laundry or near the wash place if work is done outdoors. Other suggestions are that one stand erect at work, sort clothes on a table instead of the floor and place blocks of wood under legs of washing machine or wash bench to bring it to the most comfortable height. This will save one-third of the energy required to put them on the line. A bag for clothes pins, with a draw cord so as to hang in the most convenient place or to be sewed onto a clothes hanger and slipped along the line saves steps. A clothes line should be about 6 feet high for the average woman and should be tight, to save "stretch" in hanging out clothes. lc 0 0 0 0::::::1 QQ Q Q OC =CO QO ::::::1 C Q OQ QOQ Q Q CCC ICI::::::ICCC c;, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Av1aUon m ReVJcw............ 3.60 Hetter Cookin~ & Hml<g... 3.60 Capper's Fanner ···-·--.. 2.15 8.60 !1.00 4.00 8.60 2.50 O Etude Mu~ic \fagazine...... 4.00 0 Farm Jrl. &: Fanner's Wife 2.15 1 O flower Grower ........____ 8.2!) 0 Household .• ·--· T MAGAZINES PATHFI ·ur:' ....

THE Bl THIS SIX Valuable Vegetable Spinach may not be the wonderful food that makes Popeye do the feats of strength shown in the cartoons, but it is a valuable item in our vegetable diet, nevertheless. That it is a popular vegetable with Americans is shown by the fact that its consumption has increased about five times in the last 20 years. Moreover, it is one of the best and most easily grown of our ;1 c' m;non greens. As a commercial crop spinach has many advan!ages. It is hardy and may· be grown somewhere in the United States during all 12 months of the year. It lends itself to iced shipping very easily, and when frozen is so good that the sales of frozen spinach in many places are larger than those of fresh spinach. It may also be cunned, but canned spinach is generally thought to be quite inferior to either the fresh or the frozen product. Wash !\lachine Care Don't think you arc giving your washing machine all the care it need> just by keeping the machinery properly oiled and greased. Correct , lubrication is essential for satisfactory operation, but complete cleanliness is equally important. Your washing machine should be cleaned thoroughly after each use. Pour in about a pail of clean hot water and let the machine run a couple of minutes. Drain, and wipe dry the mside of the tub and the metal parts. Always loosen the wringer and vvipe the rollers dry. Wipe the entire outside of the machne with a sudsy cloth and then go over it with a dry cloth. When not in use, the washing machine shou1d be protected from dust and dirt with a cloth or cover.

Eisenhower's armies smashed through the ramparts of "Fortress Europe" to set foot upon French soil, Germany's once proud wehrmacht, weakened after six years of the bloodiest war in history, bowed the knee unconditionally to the Allied powers.

Later the surrender was ratified at Russian headquarters in battered Berlin, with Marshal Gregory Zhukov participating for the Reds. Grand Adm. Karl Doenitz's order to German troops to cease firing came as a sort of anti-climax since the bulk of the Nazi forces already had laid down their arms in the faee of the Allied avalanche. April29, 1,000,000 Nazis surrendered in northern Italy and western Austria; May 4, another 1,000,000 gave up in Holland and Denmark, and on May 5, 400,000 quit in southern Germany.

He explained to lhe priest what be wanted to accomplish tor the people of Adano, :.nd secured the -promhe of the priest to call attention, .at mass, to tbe posted clvll Instructions. 'The Major promised the priest that be would attend mass the nex~ day. CHAPTER IV "You could have read the proclamations which our friends will post, Fatta. You would not have had anything to lean against wh.ile rea?ing because the proclamations w11l be posted on the walls upon which you depend. The hour of the reading, that is to say about five o'clock, would have been bad for you, be<:ause it is the hour when you are overcome with energy and are ~ble to lift a bottle of wine to your bps. "But the others will read, Fatta. 'They will learn that the Americans .are our friends. They will learn of the changes. They will know w.hat to do. They will avoid the punishments. For them, Adana will be a new town, and life will be different. For you, it will be the same. You will do wrong, and you will be punjshed. Adano will still be a place of iear. "Look at the lazy Fatta, people! Do not be like him. Read the proclamatior:s. Acquaint yourself with the new Adano! I have cried." And Mercurio Salvatore moved the drum around behind him and marched off to the several other places convenient for shouting, and in his own way he told the people about the changes which were to come. Father Pensovecchio could not remember when so many people had come to the Church of San Angelo. It was a pleasure, certainly it was .a pleasure, to have so many come to the Church of San Angelo. But now Father Pensovecchio had .a thought which made him very uneasy. What if the Mister Major should not come? Think of the shame. Think of how the other priests would laugh. Think how this vanity, this large crowd, would complain. Think of how his own faithful would flock on later Sundays to the other churches. Think of preaching to empty pews. It was already five minutes past -seven. The senior acolyte had already whispered in his ear that it was time to begin the mass. And the Mister Major had not come. The Mister Major, at that mo· ment, was sitting in his office having a breakfast of fruit and discussing with Borth and with the usher Zito, who never went to church, the matter of the bell. Major Joppolo sat with his fee t on the huge desk eating fruit, Borth sat on the end of the desk also eating, and the little Zito stood at attention in front of it, not eating but wishing he were. In the Church of San Angelo, meanwhile, Father Pensovecchio was growing frantic. Most of the heads in his, crowd, his lovely crowd, kept turning toward the door instead of facing the silver crucifix which survived the fire of 1553. In his office Major Joppolo said: "They took the bell away on the fourteenth of June. That is a month less two days. That is not so much time. Considering how things are done in our Army, perhaps not much has been done with the bell. Where was it sent, Zito?" Zito said: "To the provincial government at the town of Vicinamare." Major Joppolo said: "Perhaps it got no farther. Perhaps the bell is still sitting in its crate in Vicinamare." Zito grew excite d: "Do you think that is possible?" he asked. The Major said: "It is possible. We must find out." And he took a piece of foolscap from his brief case and began a letter: ''To: Lt. Col. R. N. Sartorius, C.A.O., Vicinamare, Prov. of Vicinamare. "From : Major V. Joppolo, C.A.O., Adano, Prov. of Vicinamare. "Re: Bell belonging to town of Adana. •·undersigned would very much appreciate your initiating investigation of records of provincial government of Vicinamare to see if you can trace . . . . " The service in the Church of San Angelo was taking a most unus ual course. Having completed the supplication, Father Pensovecchio started reciting the Litany of Saint Joseph. It was the longest litany he could think of offhand, and he repeated the words without any sense of their meaning. "Joseph, most valiant, Joseph, most obedient, Joseph, most faithful, mirror of patience, lover of poverty, model of workmen, ornament of the domestic life, guardian of virgins, safeguard of families. . . . " Suddenly Father Pensovecchio broke off. He had had an idea. He beckoned again to the senior acolyte and whispered in his ear: "Have ol:1 Guzzo ring the bell." "Now, father?TI W. H .

I I II Care in Applying Dust Essential Particular care should be taken in applying poisonous insecticides and fungicides in excessive quantities. Also care should be taken that all poison spray or dust is thoroughly and carefully removed from the foliage of any vegetable before it is prepared for food. Every gardener should have available, even before he starts his planting, a duster or spray. er !or applying insecticides and fuagicides. For small gardens, a duster is probably preferable because use of dust is easier than the preparation and handling of sprays. Important, is to be ready for the bugs when they arrive.

It did not suit his office to cl;lase Zito himself, especially since it was unlikely that he would catch him. The acolyte Ludovico, sitting on the steps of the Church, looked up in amazement at the little Italian being chased by the American officer. He wondered why the American was chasing the Italian. The pair had run right past Ludovico up the steps of the Church before it occurred to him that perhaps this was the American Major. He got up quickly and ran up the steps after the two of them, but he was too late; they were already inside the door. The entire congregation stood up. The lazy Fatta even stopped leaning against the pillar. There was a considerable amount of murmuring, and as the Major walked up the aisle, puffing and wiping the sweat from his face, many people whispered: "Kiss your hand, kiss your hand." As soon as he saw a pew that was not too crowded, Major Joppolo genuflected !md slid into it. Zito imitated him and squeezed into the same pew, which was too crowded then. The congregation seated itself. Father Pensovecchio cleared his throat. His confidence, which had very nearly left him, was now very much in evidence. He had his crowd and be h ad his Major. Major Joppolo couldn't help noticing two heads in the pew right in front of him. One was the head of a man, and it was bald . The other was the head of a woman, and it was blonde. By tilting his head a very little bit, Major Joppolo was able to find out that the bald head belonged to his interpreter, Giuseppe. He was not able, by tilting, to see the face of the blonrle head, but he could see that the hair was arranged fastidiously, with no loose strands. "If you remember," said the priest, "we were told that Americans attacked priests and attacked and killed women, and were all Protestants.

Of course, the answer is obvious, but you must do something about it if you are to do the eating. Having in mind the importance of food production in Victory gardens as essential in the war effort, Mr. Victory Gardener must regard insect pests and plant diseases in the same category as the Nazis and the Japs - unconditional surrender must be the terms. But regardless of the care and skill shown in selecting the garden site, in the cultivation and fertilization of the soil and in the selection and planting, all such efforts-involving the use of critical and scarce supplies of seeds, fertilizers and tools - may be nullified, or partly so, by the depredations of 1n ·,e.:ts and diseases unless steps aJ e Lu I\Cn to control them.

The duelling "grounds" were near the Scheffclhaus, at the north end of the old arched bridge in the quaint residential section of Heidelberg. One scene of "The Student Prince" was laid in the beer garden of the Scheffelhaus. Most popular with the students was the tuneful and rollicking drinking song from the musical comedy. To the south the old moated castle of Heidelberg stood out from its mountainside setting, 330 feet abOve the river. It was an aggregation of fortresses and palaces of past centuries. The castle was largely dcst:·oyed in 1G93 by the French soldiers of Louis XIV. The castle was noted for the great Tun in the cellar, a cask that could :store over 50,000 gallons of wine . • = News Notes ot Yo Local Churches Mocking Bird "The mocking bird is one of the r.1ost highly dev<:-loped singers and ,1as one of the broadl'St repertoires," said National Audubon Oi· 'lcial Bert Hartwell of :'.1iallli, Fla.

Dry Shampoo Restores Life to Window S.va e<; Non-washable window-shades can bn freshened and often give <tnr>ther year of usefulness by applying a dry shampoo. To cleanse shades this way, start by taking them dov·n and dusting them on both sides. For dry suds, boil one part of bar or packaged soap with five parts of water and cool until the mass jt:lls. Then whip with an egg beater until a dry lather is formed with no liquid at the bottom of the bowl. Apply the dry suds with a soft cloth or brush or sponge to a small section of the shade. Rub lightly and then wipe the suds off. Wipe the area again \\::ith a cloth wrung almost dry in clear warm water. Rinse until all suds and soil have been removed and wipe with a dry cloth. Continue until the entire surface has been cleaned. Reverse the s'1ade, and clean the otrer side tl'e s.llne way.

Model $21 House Gives Mexican Indians Ideas If someone offered you $21 on condition that you go out and buy yourself a house with it, you might not appreciate the humor of the situation. Yet to an Indian family of Ixcat0pec, a valley \'illage 60 miles from Mexico City, $21 actually represents the price not of just a home, but a model home at that. When the Camohmila Rural Reconstruction center built such a model house, all of the 25 families of Ixcatepec came to gaze at it ir, amazement. Three rooms of adobe, with red-tiled roof, it had a kitchen with a chimney, a bathroom, builtin cupboards, windows and a wooden floor. But not one of those Indian families could afford $21! However, points out the InterAmerican magazine, the experiment proved that a better way of life was possible. The Indians began to improve their own homes by putting in windows, dividing the customary one large room into two, adding a kitchen and a rudimentary bat~­ room. = i.~ONGKEGATIONAL ZION EV.

MECKEL, MINIS I'Eit Sparkling Windows Add To Charm of Home To make sure that windows will be bright and clean, do not use soap and water on the panes. Soap streaks the glass and is hard to rub dry. Clear warm water can be'used if the glass is not too dirty. If grease and dirt cling to the panes, add a little ammonia or alcohol to the water to get the windows clean. Use four tablespoons of dilute ammonia for each gallon of water. Windows can be cleaned and dried quickly and easily if"the water or solution is sprayed on. The spray gives a thin, even film of the liquid all over the glass. If you do not have a spray, tHe next best way to wash windows is with a chamois, which takes up water quickly and thoroughly and leaves no lint, as cloth often does. A piece of chamois may also be used to dry the windows. For windows that are left open often, protect the sills from rain spots and dust with a coat of liquid wax, after washing and drying the sill. Apply a thin layer of wax, and polish until the wax is hard enough to provide a protective finish.

They think it's necessary to get new seed every few years because, they say, their seed "runs out." In other words, j they believe that seed grown for a . number of years on the same farm loses its ability to yield satisfactorily. Agronomists say that there's probably some foundation for such a widespread belief because seed on many farms does cease making satisfactory yields. But, the reason Ill!

There may be loss of appetite. Calves are commonly dead or weak at birth. The cow may have difficulty in r ·1· · ~g and frequently retains the : lerbirth. She may give little or no rrulk. Ewes may have similar symptonfs, and in addition may develop lambing paralysis, with resulting loss of the ewe and lambs. Good green hay, a good source of carotene which is the substance from which vitamin A is produced in the animal's body, is the preventive and the cure for this condition. Brown or bleached hay does not have enough garotene. -- - -- --- 1 :•»»-»•»»•••••••••••-.••••••. ¥: ; t d 1 8 ¥ an e 0 Uy =* w ; " ! ¥ 5 or 6 Rooms complete; also ¥ Appliances. ; ; ; • ¥ ¥ ; • 1; 1¥ ~'urniture, 11 Electrical : Call Mr. Morrison.

When the Japs made their snealc attack at Pearl Harbor and immediately afterwards Germany declared war on the United States, the Berlin-Tokyo Axis felt reasonably ce1·tain that they could win the war before Uncle Sam could muster h1s full strength to save England and Russia from defeat, much less go ovN to the offensive from the defensive. To make the weight of his armed might felt, Uncle Sam must have ships, more ships and still TlurP ships in order to transport his fighting men to the battle fronts. NeH•r did the enemy dream that Uncle Sam could raise his cargo tonnage from 11,000,000 deadweight tons to 45,000,000 tons in three years nor tr<lin the men to sail this giant fled.

The War Shipping administration, charged with train· ing and recruiting seamen, has expanded the merchant marine cadet corps for the training of ships' officers, the maritime service for training and upgrading seamen and the recruitment and manning organization for procurement of experienced seamen. The training organization of WSA trained and graduated 11,300 men for ships' officers and trained or upgraded 76,400 seamen in 1944. The recruitment and manning organization, supplementing efforts of ooerating companies and maritime unions to procure crews, recruited 1 30,000 experienced seamen from shore jobs in 1044.

Incidentally, one of the breathtaking innovations of this war was the creation of artificial harbors on the Normandy coast to permit unloading of troops and supplies for the invasion of France. Thirty-two obsolete or badly damaged vessels were sun!~ to form breakwaters, buttressed by concrete piers constructed especially for the purpose in England and towed across the channel by tugs. One thousand merchant seamen volunteered for the task . The artificial harbors replaced some of the advantages of the I I trained more than 190,000 Americans as officers and seamen to m.an our wartime merchant fleet. These 190,000 Americans who volunteered their service to their country are civilians and have no military status. But they have heroically risked. their lives just as much as have our soldiers, sailors, marines and coastguardsmen who have met the enemy in mortal combat on land, on sea and in the air. Despite the fact that improveme.nt in methods of protecting Allied convoys and of curbing the submarine m enace had greatly reduced the hazards of sailing in 1944, the fact remains that up to April, 1945, the merchant marine has suffered 6,057 casualties -5,522 dead and missing and 535 prisoners of war. And it is significant too that the merchant marine distinguished service medal, awarded for outstanding acts of heroism by merchant seamen, has been presented to more than 100 of these merchant seamen for action after September l, 1939. All of which are reasons- though there are many, many morewhy all Americans should join in honoring these valiant fighters for freedom on National Maritime Day, May 22.

The best time for immimization is when the puppy is three to four months of age. Usually there are two injections of vaccine or serum two weeks or so apart, with a final administration of living virus. The dog to be inoculated should be free of worms or rickets and in a state of general good health. 1 I - i;~~ 0!:~~~~:~~~~:~~~:ae~~r~~:; E~~~ i~= CRCECCPCACICRC ° CYCOCUCTCRC =8=CUCICLCDCICNC(jC c =N=O=W==~="~ under the edge!> so that the hole appears square, and back it with a square patch of stmilcll rraterial . . • the side poi tlons of old sheets 11 are ve-ry good to use for t .is.

If he !"us a wife and child and an aged p<:rent to suppot1, each individual must subs1st on about $10 a week. How well the people of any nation live is a similar matter. It dept•nds upon the nat10na. income and how it is dividt>d. Just like family income, national income changes from year to year and it is not always divided the same way. National incr.mc is the grand total of what everybody in the nation earns. It includes all wages, sularies, farm yields, interest, rents, profits and dividends. How About Now? The United States Department of Commerce keeps track of our national income figures pretty well, yt-ar by year. Already we know that the income of all Americans totaled J60.1l billion do'lars in J!l44 and that \'.OJke1·s got 72% of it, or 116 billion dollars. By "workers,'' I mean people who draw wages and small c:lerical salanes. Corporation profits that year ran just under ten bilhon dollars or 6%. There is a popular notion that people who work don't get very much of the fruits of their toil. Not long ago somebody repeated a 40-year-old Pl£>ce of political propaganda to me, IJpJieving it every word. He said, "Here in America 2% of the people have 90','o of the wealth." There is not much to say about this statement: It is not true. It has never ueen nearly true. Official Figures Last year the national-income dollar went like this: 72c to American workers, 6c to corporations, 8c to small businesses in the form of profit, 7c to tanners as return on what they produced, and another 7c to landowners and stockholders in the form af rents and dividends, and tn money lenders in the form of interest. Of course all years aren't alike but they vary less than you might think. · Nntional income bobs up and down but people who work always get most of it. Back in 1939, which was a typical pre-war year, our nat onel income was not half as high .,s last year's; 70.8 billion dollars to bt exact. Then, workers got 68% of 1t and 6% was corporation profit; not r..uch change in how the income wa_ d1vided, but Jess than half as much actual money for everybody. · Ancient History B<~Lk in 1929, the year Hoover succeeded Coolidge as Pres ident, national income was 83.3 billion dollars; bigger then, than in 1939. Corporation profits were higher-9% as against 6% in recent years. But wage earners and office help were getting 64% of national income, even then. In 1932 (the depression) wher. corporations generally earned 9% less than nothing, wages climbed to 97% and still some working people went hungry. Any fair analysis of national in- • come figures over a period of years leads to this observation: workers, laborers and clerical people, get more money with the slightly smaller percentage of a big national income than with the bigger percentage of a small national income. The moral is perfectly clear. We will all fare better working tC'gether for a big national income than by wrangling about who gets most of it, and then having a small one,~~~ in Feed Well over 700.000 tons (14 .000,000 bags) of commercially mi~:ccl fel'd ' containing urea 11s an i11grPdicnt were fed to ruminants in the U11itPd States during the past year 1vith satisfactory results. according to a statement compiled by a special committee selected to review technical and practical backgrounds of urea feeding. Extensive studies at leading agricultural colleges and experiment stations in the United States demonstrate without exception that urea, in scientifically safe amounts, is properly assimilated, the committee said. It can efficiently replace a limited portion of the normal protein in the diet of such ruminants as dairy cows, growing heifers, steers and range cattle. l' Sandpapering Shine When• clothes shine results from wear, sandpaper's abrasive action may raise a garment's nap again. However, the remedial effect will be only temporary and the fabric be permanently weakened. Light scorch effects may be removed by sandpaper, whereas deeper ones will be impossible to remove. And an undesirable weakening of the fabric which may develop into a hole simply cannot be avoided where sandpaper has been used. Removal of heavy-scorch is generally not attempted even by professional cleaners. They can, however, often successfully treat the shine caused by faulty pressing at home. Often, too, light scorches can be removed by 1means of an oxidizing agent. I . By John Hersey Here is a "be:>t sc~Jer" story by the bri!!iant your g war corre.,;ond.nt for Time and Life.

A bench or box fitted with casters will hold the basket, hamper or tub in the laundry or near the wash place if work is done outdoors. Other suggestions are that one stand erect at work, sort clothes on a table instead of the floor and place blocks of wood under legs of washing machine or wash bench to bring it to the most comfortable height. This will save one-third of the energy required to put them on the line. A bag for clothes pins, with a draw cord so as to hang in the most convenient place or to be sewed onto a clothes hanger and slipped along the line saves steps. A clothes line should be about 6 feet high for the average woman and should be tight, to save "stretch" in hanging out clothes. lc 0 0 0 0::::::1 QQ Q Q OC =CO QO ::::::1 C Q OQ QOQ Q Q CCC ICI::::::ICCC c;, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Av1aUon m ReVJcw............ 3.60 Hetter Cookin~ & Hml<g... 3.60 Capper's Fanner ···-·--.. 2.15 8.60 !1.00 4.00 8.60 2.50 O Etude Mu~ic \fagazine...... 4.00 0 Farm Jrl. &: Fanner's Wife 2.15 1 O flower Grower ........____ 8.2!) 0 Household .• ·--· T MAGAZINES PATHFI ·ur:' ....

THE Bl THIS SIX Valuable Vegetable Spinach may not be the wonderful food that makes Popeye do the feats of strength shown in the cartoons, but it is a valuable item in our vegetable diet, nevertheless. That it is a popular vegetable with Americans is shown by the fact that its consumption has increased about five times in the last 20 years. Moreover, it is one of the best and most easily grown of our ;1 c' m;non greens. As a commercial crop spinach has many advan!ages. It is hardy and may· be grown somewhere in the United States during all 12 months of the year. It lends itself to iced shipping very easily, and when frozen is so good that the sales of frozen spinach in many places are larger than those of fresh spinach. It may also be cunned, but canned spinach is generally thought to be quite inferior to either the fresh or the frozen product. Wash !\lachine Care Don't think you arc giving your washing machine all the care it need> just by keeping the machinery properly oiled and greased. Correct , lubrication is essential for satisfactory operation, but complete cleanliness is equally important. Your washing machine should be cleaned thoroughly after each use. Pour in about a pail of clean hot water and let the machine run a couple of minutes. Drain, and wipe dry the mside of the tub and the metal parts. Always loosen the wringer and vvipe the rollers dry. Wipe the entire outside of the machne with a sudsy cloth and then go over it with a dry cloth. When not in use, the washing machine shou1d be protected from dust and dirt with a cloth or cover.

ILL. .----VICTORY IN EUROPE, _ _____, Germany Forced to Capitulate Mter Six Years of Fighting; Allies Face Big Job in Pacific Eleven hard and bitter months after General Dwight D. Eisenhower's armies smashed through the ramparts of "Fortress Europe" to set foot upon French soil, Germany's once proud wehrmacht, weakened after six years of the bloodiest war in history, bowed the knee unconditionally to the Allied powers. Offered to Russia as well as the U. S. and Britain after earlier futile efforts to split the Allies by approaching the Anglo-Americans alone, Germany's surrender took place at General Eisenhower's headquarters in the little red school house in Reims, Tbeae are t..be men-Roosevelt, Truman, Stalin and Churchill, wbe were responsible In dlreetlnr tho victory aralnat Germany.

Walter Bedell Smith accepting Col. Gen. Gustav Jodi's capitulation. Later the surrender was ratified at Russian headquarters in battered Berlin, with Marshal Gregory Zhukov participating for the Reds. Grand Adm. Karl Doenitz's order to German troops to cease firing came as a sort of anti-climax since the bulk of the Nazi forces already had laid down their arms in the faee of the Allied avalanche. April29, 1,000,000 Nazis surrendered in northern Italy and western Austria; May 4, another 1,000,000 gave up in Holland and Denmark, and on May 5, 400,000 quit in southern Germany.

He explained to lhe priest what be wanted to accomplish tor the people of Adano, :.nd secured the -promhe of the priest to call attention, .at mass, to tbe posted clvll Instructions. 'The Major promised the priest that be would attend mass the nex~ day. CHAPTER IV "You could have read the proclamations which our friends will post, Fatta. You would not have had anything to lean against wh.ile rea?ing because the proclamations w11l be posted on the walls upon which you depend. The hour of the reading, that is to say about five o'clock, would have been bad for you, be<:ause it is the hour when you are overcome with energy and are ~ble to lift a bottle of wine to your bps. "But the others will read, Fatta. 'They will learn that the Americans .are our friends. They will learn of the changes. They will know w.hat to do. They will avoid the punishments. For them, Adana will be a new town, and life will be different. For you, it will be the same. You will do wrong, and you will be punjshed. Adano will still be a place of iear. "Look at the lazy Fatta, people! Do not be like him. Read the proclamatior:s. Acquaint yourself with the new Adano! I have cried." And Mercurio Salvatore moved the drum around behind him and marched off to the several other places convenient for shouting, and in his own way he told the people about the changes which were to come. Father Pensovecchio could not remember when so many people had come to the Church of San Angelo. It was a pleasure, certainly it was .a pleasure, to have so many come to the Church of San Angelo. But now Father Pensovecchio had .a thought which made him very uneasy. What if the Mister Major should not come? Think of the shame. Think of how the other priests would laugh. Think how this vanity, this large crowd, would complain. Think of how his own faithful would flock on later Sundays to the other churches. Think of preaching to empty pews. It was already five minutes past -seven. The senior acolyte had already whispered in his ear that it was time to begin the mass. And the Mister Major had not come. The Mister Major, at that mo· ment, was sitting in his office having a breakfast of fruit and discussing with Borth and with the usher Zito, who never went to church, the matter of the bell. Major Joppolo sat with his fee t on the huge desk eating fruit, Borth sat on the end of the desk also eating, and the little Zito stood at attention in front of it, not eating but wishing he were. In the Church of San Angelo, meanwhile, Father Pensovecchio was growing frantic. Most of the heads in his, crowd, his lovely crowd, kept turning toward the door instead of facing the silver crucifix which survived the fire of 1553. In his office Major Joppolo said: "They took the bell away on the fourteenth of June. That is a month less two days. That is not so much time. Considering how things are done in our Army, perhaps not much has been done with the bell. Where was it sent, Zito?" Zito said: "To the provincial government at the town of Vicinamare." Major Joppolo said: "Perhaps it got no farther. Perhaps the bell is still sitting in its crate in Vicinamare." Zito grew excite d: "Do you think that is possible?" he asked. The Major said: "It is possible. We must find out." And he took a piece of foolscap from his brief case and began a letter: ''To: Lt. Col. R. N. Sartorius, C.A.O., Vicinamare, Prov. of Vicinamare. "From : Major V. Joppolo, C.A.O., Adano, Prov. of Vicinamare. "Re: Bell belonging to town of Adana. •·undersigned would very much appreciate your initiating investigation of records of provincial government of Vicinamare to see if you can trace . . . . " The service in the Church of San Angelo was taking a most unus ual course. Having completed the supplication, Father Pensovecchio started reciting the Litany of Saint Joseph. It was the longest litany he could think of offhand, and he repeated the words without any sense of their meaning. "Joseph, most valiant, Joseph, most obedient, Joseph, most faithful, mirror of patience, lover of poverty, model of workmen, ornament of the domestic life, guardian of virgins, safeguard of families. . . . " Suddenly Father Pensovecchio broke off. He had had an idea. He beckoned again to the senior acolyte and whispered in his ear: "Have ol:1 Guzzo ring the bell." "Now, father?TI W. H .

I I II Care in Applying Dust Essential Particular care should be taken in applying poisonous insecticides and fungicides in excessive quantities. Also care should be taken that all poison spray or dust is thoroughly and carefully removed from the foliage of any vegetable before it is prepared for food. Every gardener should have available, even before he starts his planting, a duster or spray. er !or applying insecticides and fuagicides. For small gardens, a duster is probably preferable because use of dust is easier than the preparation and handling of sprays. Important, is to be ready for the bugs when they arrive. Of course, we cannot set down her~ the proper preventive or cure for all disease and insect p ests. But start fighting at the first sign of damage to the crop.

It did not suit his office to cl;lase Zito himself, especially since it was unlikely that he would catch him. The acolyte Ludovico, sitting on the steps of the Church, looked up in amazement at the little Italian being chased by the American officer. He wondered why the American was chasing the Italian. The pair had run right past Ludovico up the steps of the Church before it occurred to him that perhaps this was the American Major. He got up quickly and ran up the steps after the two of them, but he was too late; they were already inside the door. The entire congregation stood up. The lazy Fatta even stopped leaning against the pillar. There was a considerable amount of murmuring, and as the Major walked up the aisle, puffing and wiping the sweat from his face, many people whispered: "Kiss your hand, kiss your hand." As soon as he saw a pew that was not too crowded, Major Joppolo genuflected !md slid into it. Zito imitated him and squeezed into the same pew, which was too crowded then. The congregation seated itself. Father Pensovecchio cleared his throat. His confidence, which had very nearly left him, was now very much in evidence. He had his crowd and be h ad his Major. Major Joppolo couldn't help noticing two heads in the pew right in front of him. One was the head of a man, and it was bald . The other was the head of a woman, and it was blonde. By tilting his head a very little bit, Major Joppolo was able to find out that the bald head belonged to his interpreter, Giuseppe. He was not able, by tilting, to see the face of the blonrle head, but he could see that the hair was arranged fastidiously, with no loose strands. "If you remember," said the priest, "we were told that Americans attacked priests and attacked and killed women, and were all Protestants.

Of course, the answer is obvious, but you must do something about it if you are to do the eating. Having in mind the importance of food production in Victory gardens as essential in the war effort, Mr. Victory Gardener must regard insect pests and plant diseases in the same category as the Nazis and the Japs - unconditional surrender must be the terms. But regardless of the care and skill shown in selecting the garden site, in the cultivation and fertilization of the soil and in the selection and planting, all such efforts-involving the use of critical and scarce supplies of seeds, fertilizers and tools - may be nullified, or partly so, by the depredations of 1n ·,e.:ts and diseases unless steps aJ e Lu I\Cn to control them.

Keep it clenn and well-brushed. For a sham~oo, simmer one-eighth of a cake of soap in one pint of hot water until the soap is dissolved. Add one teaspoonful of borax and one tablespoonful of alcohol. If you have to use hard water to wash your hair, try a rinse of lemon juice or vinegar; that helps to remove the soap curd formed by hard water. Lemon is also a mild blc>ach.

Brushing sUmulates the glands of the scalp and makes the hair shine. Do not brush the 1air flatly to the head, but rather up and out.

Eight German uni yersitics had larger student bodies than Heidelberg, but none \\as so cosmopolitan in past centuries, or had more loyal alumni. Headlined features of student We at Heidelberg were the stucicnt duels. There were fencing bouts among the five rival corps, each with distinctive caps. A facial scar became a badge of honor. The duelling "grounds" were near the Scheffclhaus, at the north end of the old arched bridge in the quaint residential section of Heidelberg. One scene of "The Student Prince" was laid in the beer garden of the Scheffelhaus. Most popular with the students was the tuneful and rollicking drinking song from the musical comedy. To the south the old moated castle of Heidelberg stood out from its mountainside setting, 330 feet abOve the river. It was an aggregation of fortresses and palaces of past centuries. The castle was largely dcst:·oyed in 1G93 by the French soldiers of Louis XIV. The castle was noted for the great Tun in the cellar, a cask that could :store over 50,000 gallons of wine . • = News Notes ot Yo Local Churches Mocking Bird "The mocking bird is one of the r.1ost highly dev<:-loped singers and ,1as one of the broadl'St repertoires," said National Audubon Oi· 'lcial Bert Hartwell of :'.1iallli, Fla. To be £ure, the Audubon ofticial ad· mitted. the mocking bird isn't above lifting a few trills from l,;s f~\'th ered neighbors, but he scrambles the lot, interpolates a ge~erous portion of striclly original cadenzas and weaves them into a distinctive song all his own. "You can't mistake it for ihc song of any other bird,'' Hartwell maintained. Dry Shampoo Restores Life to Window S.va e<; Non-washable window-shades can bn freshened and often give <tnr>ther year of usefulness by applying a dry shampoo. To cleanse shades this way, start by taking them dov·n and dusting them on both sides. For dry suds, boil one part of bar or packaged soap with five parts of water and cool until the mass jt:lls. Then whip with an egg beater until a dry lather is formed with no liquid at the bottom of the bowl. Apply the dry suds with a soft cloth or brush or sponge to a small section of the shade. Rub lightly and then wipe the suds off. Wipe the area again \\::ith a cloth wrung almost dry in clear warm water. Rinse until all suds and soil have been removed and wipe with a dry cloth. Continue until the entire surface has been cleaned. Reverse the s'1ade, and clean the otrer side tl'e s.llne way.

Model $21 House Gives Mexican Indians Ideas If someone offered you $21 on condition that you go out and buy yourself a house with it, you might not appreciate the humor of the situation. Yet to an Indian family of Ixcat0pec, a valley \'illage 60 miles from Mexico City, $21 actually represents the price not of just a home, but a model home at that. When the Camohmila Rural Reconstruction center built such a model house, all of the 25 families of Ixcatepec came to gaze at it ir, amazement. Three rooms of adobe, with red-tiled roof, it had a kitchen with a chimney, a bathroom, builtin cupboards, windows and a wooden floor. But not one of those Indian families could afford $21! However, points out the InterAmerican magazine, the experiment proved that a better way of life was possible. The Indians began to improve their own homes by putting in windows, dividing the customary one large room into two, adding a kitchen and a rudimentary bat~­ room. = i.~ONGKEGATIONAL ZION EV.

MECKEL, MINIS I'Eit Sparkling Windows Add To Charm of Home To make sure that windows will be bright and clean, do not use soap and water on the panes. Soap streaks the glass and is hard to rub dry. Clear warm water can be'used if the glass is not too dirty. If grease and dirt cling to the panes, add a little ammonia or alcohol to the water to get the windows clean. Use four tablespoons of dilute ammonia for each gallon of water. Windows can be cleaned and dried quickly and easily if"the water or solution is sprayed on. The spray gives a thin, even film of the liquid all over the glass. If you do not have a spray, tHe next best way to wash windows is with a chamois, which takes up water quickly and thoroughly and leaves no lint, as cloth often does. A piece of chamois may also be used to dry the windows. For windows that are left open often, protect the sills from rain spots and dust with a coat of liquid wax, after washing and drying the sill. Apply a thin layer of wax, and polish until the wax is hard enough to provide a protective finish.

There may be loss of appetite. Calves are commonly dead or weak at birth. The cow may have difficulty in r ·1· · ~g and frequently retains the : lerbirth. She may give little or no rrulk. Ewes may have similar symptonfs, and in addition may develop lambing paralysis, with resulting loss of the ewe and lambs. Good green hay, a good source of carotene which is the substance from which vitamin A is produced in the animal's body, is the preventive and the cure for this condition. Brown or bleached hay does not have enough garotene. -- - -- --- 1 :•»»-»•»»•••••••••••-.••••••. ¥: ; t d 1 8 ¥ an e 0 Uy =* w ; " ! ¥ 5 or 6 Rooms complete; also ¥ Appliances. ; ; ; • ¥ ¥ ; • 1; 1¥ ~'urniture, 11 Electrical : Call Mr. Morrison.

My company of first division marines dug in at the edge of a bomb-shattered village. The village was quaint and not without charm. I was astonished at the similarity with the villages of Sicily and Italy. Extend the Meat With Noodles and Gravy (See Recipes Below) Point-Easy Patterns Some of our homemakers feel tha)l rationing has become so tight, it is difficwlt to set a tasty dish before the family. It's true we are learning to use a great variety of foods, but all these can be made delicious as well as pleasing as to appearance. Humble meats like hamburger and liver can be dressed attractively and made to taste like high-point foods. Imagine eatin'g , golden brown, wafer-thin pancakes, filled with a well-seasoned meat mixture. Good? Of course, pass the seconds, please. You can stuff small slices of liver with your favorite celery or onion dressing and braise them in a savory tomato sauce. There's little bPtt~r. If you have taken it a little bit ea"y on the main course, you can a' ys go the limit with the des'"'' t . ' Cream pies are "luscious even though their whipped cream toppings are missing. Frothy egg whites are just as pretty and tasty. Fresh vegetables and fruit platters are ideal for adding color to the table. Try a freshly cooked snowy white cauliflower in the center of a platter and surround it with slivered green beans and tomato cups with golden corn kernel centers. If it's a fruit platter you've set your cap for, then you'll like melon (preferably cantaloupe with its center scooped out and filled with a fruit gelatin salad, and garnished on the platter with slices of pineapple mounted with fresh berries or grapes.

Turn and brown on other side. These Hamburger Filled Pancakes may be served with sauerkraut. Place the kraut in the center of a platter and arrange pancakes in a border around it. Lynn Says: 1\leat 1\temos: Extend low-point meats with breading, garnishing and fillings to make them appetizing and point-saving. Bacon can, be dipped in beaten egg and bread crumbs, th!m fried and served as an appetizing meat course. Honeycomb or pocket tripe becomes savory when giv~n the egg and bread crumb treatment. Serve it with broiled bacon and tomatoes for flavor contrast. Ground lamb patties take on flavor value V{hen served with grilled fresh pineapple and tomato slices.

The houses were wooden onestory buildings, surrounded by little vegetable gardens. Instead of fences, each lot was clivided by rows of shrubs or trees. The cobblestoned streets were just wide enough for a jeep. They were winding and walled on both sides by head-high stone walls. ~ A good part of the town lay shattered. Scores of the houses had burned and only ashes and red roofing tile were left. Wandering around, I counted the bodies of four Okinawans still in the streets. Otherwise the town was deserted. The people had fled to their caves in the hillsides, taking most of their persdnal belongin~s with them. There is almost no furniture in Japanese houses, so they didn't have to worry about that. After a few days the grapevine carried the word to them that we were treating them well so they began to come out in droves and give themselves up. I heard one story about a hundred Okinawa civilians who had a J ap soldier among them, and when they realized the atrocity stories he had told them about the Americans were untrue, our MPs had to step in to keep them from beating him. M arine:r Have Run ol Town Our company commander picked out a nice little house on a rise at the edge of town for his command post. The house was very light, fairly clean, and the floors were covered with woven straw mats. A couple of officers and a dozen men moved into the house and slept on the floor and we cooked our rations over an open stone cookstove in the rear. Then t'he word1 went ·around Tor' the men of the company to dig in for several days. Two platoons were assigned to clig in along the outer sides of the nearby hills for perimeter defense. The boys were told they could keep the horses they had commandeered, that they could carry wooden panels out of the houses to make little doghouses for themselves, but not to take anything else, and that they could have fires, except during air alerts. They weren't to start their daily mop-up patrols in the brush until the next day, so they had the afternoon off to clean themselves up and fix up their little houses. Different men did different things. Some built elaborate houses about the size of chicken houses, with floor mats and chairs and even kerosene lanterns hanging from the roof. One Mexican boy dug a hole, covered it with boards, and then camouflaged it so perfectly with brush you really couldn't see it. Some spent the afternoon taking baths and washing clothes in the river. Some rode bicycles around town. Some rode their horses up and down. Some foraged around town through the d eserted houses. Some went looking for chickens to cook. Some sat in groups and talked. Some just slept. An order went out against wearing Jap clothing or eating any of the local vegetables, pork, goat, beef or fowl. But this was before the order came out. The marines had dug up lots of Japanese kimonos out of the smashed houses and put them on wliile washing their one set of clothes. If you ever want to see a funny sight, just take a look at a few dozen dirty and unshaven marines walking around in pink and blue women's kimonos. A typical example was Pvt. Raymond Adams of Gleason, Tenn. He had fixed himself a dugout right on the edge of a bluff above the river. He had a grand view and a nice little grassy front yard. Out there he had driven stakes and built a fire. He hung his helmet over the fire like a kettle and was stewing ~hicken. He had taken of! his clothes and put on a beautiful pinkand-white kimono. Later a friend came along with a Jap bicycle with one _pedal off, I Released by Western Newspaper Union. and Adams tried without much success to ride it up and down a nearby lane. If there ever is a war play about marines I hope they include one tough-looking private in a pink-andwhite kimono, stewing chicken and trying to ride a one-pedaled bicycle through a shattered Japanese village. Private Adams is married and has a boy eight months old he has never seen. If the baby could have seen his father that day he would probabl~ have got the colic from laughing so much. • • • AN ADORABLE out- of - doors outfit for a sweet little girl.

JO¢ Funny Sighb In Moving Column There are always funny sights in a column of soldiers moving along Our mortar platoon had comman deered a dozen local horses to carry heayy pieces. One of the marines had tied the pack onto his horse with a Japanese obi-one of those brightly colored reams of sash Japanese women bear on their backs. And here came tl;lis marine, dirty and unshaven, leading a sorrel horse with a big bowtie of black and white silk, three feet wide, lied across its chest and another similar one tied under its belly, the ends standing out on both sides. Troops carry the oddest things when they move. One marine had a J ap photo album in his hand. One had a wicker basket. Another had a lacquered serving tray. They even had a Columbia phonograph with Jap records, strapped onto a horse. Lots of them wore Japanese insignia or pieces of uniform. Later an order came out that any marine caught wearing Jap clothing would be put on burial detail. I guess that was to keep marines from shooting each other by mistake. • • • There were frequent holdups ahead of us and we would stop and sit down every hundred yards or so. One marine commenting on the slow progress said: "Sometimes we take off like a ruptured duck, and other times we just creep along." The word was passed down the line, "Keep your eyes open for planes." About every sixth man would turn his head and repeat it and the word was sent back along the column like a wave. Except toward the r ear they made it comical"Keep your eyes open for planes - keep your eyes open for cabbages -keep your eyes open for Geisha girls." We were walking almost on each other's heels, a solid double line of marines. My friend, Bird Dog Clayton, was behind me. He said, "A · column like this would be a Jap pilot's delight." :Men Chilled on Okinawa 'Love Day' The LCVP in which I rode shoreward on Love Day morning at Okinawa was so crowded the men just stood against each other.

They joked with each other about quaking with fear, instead of cold. We all smiled sort of sickly like. We talked most of the way, but I can't remember much of what we said. We were all sort of tensed up inside. ~~1 understand back home they're saying the war is over." ~~speak louder- I can't hear yuh." Sure, BiU-apeak louder.

Today our great fight is but hal£ won. Japan, our final and most dangerous enemy, still lives. Japan still boasts an army of 4,000,000 fanatical, lastditch fighters, with half again that many in reserve. Japan's huge, ill-gotten wealth of Empire is still essen· tially intact. Japan still hates our guts. Today we can, if we choose, start breaking faith with those who died. We can go on a fool's orgy, get drunk on our success so far. Or we can, if we choose, pray for our dead, and for the lives of those who have so far been spared. We can stay on the job, buy another War Bond, give a pint of blood. We can choke hack our cheers , •• and save our wind for the mighty task that lies ahead. Today is but the symbol of the many days to come. What are you going to do with these daye?

J There is one thing in which the nation's farmers and our military leaders have a common stake ... an element which can upset the most carefully laid military plans and the most meticulously planned agricultural program-the weather. The farmers' success in planting and harvesting and American combat success in combined land- sea- air operations can come only through close observance of the scientific predictions of the weatherman. For the weather is often used as a military weapon by our military strategists, and our farmers are dependent upon the vagaries of the weather to harvest a record production, or a crop failure. No military operation-whether it is a minor sortie by a group of fighters, a bombing mission on an enemy city, naval bombardment of a Jap i"land, a ground attack in China, or a large scale invasion-is never blueprinted unless latest weather information is first consulted. Success of an attack is ofttimes dependent upon clear weather, though American forces have profitably exploited bad weather to make offensive strikes against the enemy.

Inside Figures Here li another enlightening passage from his statement: "Perhaps you wonder why my net realization from wages has been so small. The answer lies in the extremely high income tu rates which apply to rrly wages, added as they are to my other income, and to the fact that I must pay not only federal income taxes but also state income taxes." This man is not the only big-company official in the country who has cut a lordly income to less than 10 cents a month. Why do they do it? Because their big salaries benefit them so little and cost their firms so much. My young friend who . tarted last fall to work his way through college, running a steam dishwasher four hours a day, realized more net from his salary than thh $50,000 CXC'Cutive. Who Is Injui·ecl? Men who cut o!I big salaries have other income. That's why their tax rates are so high. That's why they can afford to spurn a salary. But if they musl decline the proceeds of their own invested earnings, one thing is sure: They will not invest further earnings to start new ventures or expand old ones. Investments in business are not safe, never have been. Any investment is a risk. Men with money invest it only when they believe, to the best of their judgment, that it will pay realienable returns. Now they are sure ot only one thing: Nearly everything an investment earns will be taxed away from them. Will they invest in new enterprises? No. Then where will our returning service men find work? Unless present tax laws are changed soon, they will tlnd it on a huge W. P.

Coal was first discovered by American colonists near Richmond. but was not mined commerC'aly until 1'150, says the National Geographic society. The first mine was at Midlothian, 12 miles west of the city. The Richmond basin was mined commercially for more than a hundred years, and still contains coal, but little is now mined. Steel, necessary for almost every type of defense equipment. is a measure of coal's import<tnce. When Virginia coal production began, eleven colonies had ironworks, using charcoal to produce about 10,000 tons of iron a year, and small amounts of steel. Demands of World War II increased steel production by more than 50,00CJ,OOO tons a year. It requires about a ton and half of coal to make the coke to smelt a ton of pig iro!l to make steel.

An extension of the Monroe Doctrine, the plan thus preserves primary responsibility for the security of an area in the hands of countries immediately concerned. Discussion of the regional security proposal came as the U. S. and Britain tried to reconcile their differing views on postwar trusteeships over ·conquered terntories after the war, with this country standing for exclusive use of military bases upon strategic islands and the British insisting upon control subject to the security organization. Meantime, sentiment in congress grew for unfettered U. S. use of any postwar bases in the Pacific vital to defense in the area.

Gustav Jodi officially thrown in the sponge for Germany on orders of Fuehrer Karl Doenitz than the American high command geared itself for a shift to the Pacific, with plans calling for retention of an army of 6,968,000 and navy of 3,389,000; the transfer of many air wings to the east to supplement Super-Fort raids on Japan, and the shipment of almost 3,000,000 troops from Europe within a year. At the same time, however, provision was made for keeping 400,000 American troops in Germany to occupy the southwestern part of the country while the French take over the Rhineland, the British the northwest and the Russians the east. Way Out Reading the handwriting on the wan even while Germany was still hanging on the ropes, Jap businessmen, ·seeing their industries being retluced to rubble even before t h e U. S. could throw her full weight into the fray, reportedly made indire'ct approaches for peace. If such is Japan's Pres. 'l'ruman intent despite the recent announcement of her government officials about a fight to the finish, Pres. Barry S. Truman was seen as offering the Japanese an opportunity to give up and still save face by his detailed definition of "unconditiOnal surrender" in a V-E day statement. Then, the President said: •'It (unconditional surrender) means the end of the war. '"It means the termination of the influencP of the military leaders who have brought Japan to the present brink of disaster. "It means provision for the return of soldiers and sailors to their families, their farms, their jobs. "It means not prolonging the present agony and suffering of the Japanese in the vain hope of victory." In shifting U. S. strength to the Pacific, the services plan to ship some construction, supply and maintenance forces directly from the European theater, while moving the bulk oyer through this country. Map l1 ovements Including some 1,000.000 troops with extE>nded combat records, who are to be released along with the \\'Otmded and averaged, the army will bring 845.000 men home in the first quarter after V-E day: 1,185,000 in the second, and 807,000 in the thu·d. Those who will be retained for the Pacific war will be given a 30·clay furlough, then reassigned for duty. Need for staggering the return of troops from Europe stems from the gigantic task of transferring equipment for the Pacific war. According to estimates, from 60 to 75 HIGHLIGHTS tJnited States stocks of corn, oats a11d barley on farms, at terminal markets, and government-owned on April 1 totaled 47,700,000 tons, about 19 per cent more than a year earlier and almost as large as the average for the five preceding years, when stocks wE're comparatively large. Tl e carryover of corn next October 1 may amount to 450,000,000 to 500,000,000 bushels. per cent of materiel in Europe will be fit for shipment to the Pacific theater. New Problem Survival of German Myth, Desertion of Democratic Elements Would Weaken Postwar Security Structure. By BAUKHAGE Ne1n Analyst and CommenUitor. \VNU Service, llnion Trust Building, Washington, D. C. SAN FRANCISCO. - California sunshine is pouring down on the bay. a great white fog has begun to drape the distant, gray-green hills in the folds of its floating robe. It has been a day of conferences and interviews where the great tragedi es of little countries-Albania. Korea, Poland-and the little differences between great countries have been tossed at us, in vibrant earnest voices, in stiff and proper accents. It would be easy to lose sight of woods for the trees. But as I sit here leafing over faded notes of another such conference, I know that the tremendous goal for which these delegates have striven is so much higher, so much wider than all the 1 little controversies that it still is just what the chambermaid in my ho1 tel said it was. Sh.e was gray haired. She had a son on Saipan, she told me, and when I asked her what she thought of this gathering she laid down an armful of linen and looked up. "I guess this is just about the most important thing that ever happened," she said, "trying to stop wars." 1 1 How important this meeting will prove to be depends on how well the world avoids the pitfalls which wrecked its last attempt to treat war as we treat disease: not as something that we irreverently consider as an act of God, like a tornado. but something to which mankind is exposed through ignorance and indifference and which can be prevented. Why did the League of Nations fail? What are the pitfalls which the United Nations must avoid?

As a resuJt of this increase in the supply, the number of civilian workers employed rose to 50,800,000 in March from 50,500,000 last year. Steps were taken by more than a dozen states this year to increase old age assistance allotments and aid to dependent children. Aged persons in Delaware now may receive $30 monthly under legislation raising the maximum to that figure from $25 a month. Wyoming raised its maximum to $50 a month, Utah increased maximum benefits from $30 to $40, Washington put old age assistance on the basis of need and provided $50 minimum for persons over 65.

Therefore it would be easy for whoever claims official fuehrership to have moved into Norway while it was still in German hands, take a long-distance submarine and find asylum and support in some country which would conceal his identity and where sufficient sympathy for nazifascism existed, to carry on underground activities and foster the myth of the immortality of nazi-dom just as the myth of the German army's invincibility was kept alive. That is one thing that apparently is not realized. It is important. It must be watched. Now there are a number of other pitfalls which I might mention but I won't spend too long over these faded notes with fresh breezes from the Pacific reminding me that we are living in the land of tomorrow and not yesterday.

This man was called by the people The Man With Two Hands, because of his continuous 1 and dramatic gesturing. He was, seemed to think, an actor, and j he he could not say two words without gesturing with both hands. He possessed and exercised all the essf'ntially Italian gestures: the two forefingers laid side by side, the circle of thumb and forefinger, the hands up in stop position, the salute to the forehead with palm forward, the fingertips of the two hands placed tip to tip, the fingers linked, the hands flat and downward as i! patting sand, the hands up heel to heel and pulled toward the chest, the attitude of prayer, the pointing forefinger of accusation, the V as if for victory or smoking cigarettes, the forefinger on the chin, the rolling of the hands. All, he used them all. He did not make any arrests. He merely went up to Carmelina, wife of the lazy Fatta, and squeezed between her and the door of Zapulla's shop, and stood there. The people could see that he was merely taking his place at the head of the line to wait for bread. Carmelina, who was annoyed by having had wood-coke thrown at her, said truculently: "Mister Gargano, you were Chief of the Carabinieri under the old regime, and that entitled you to stand at the head of the line. I am not sure that you are still Chief of the Carabinieri." Gargano said: "I am the Chief," and he made a kind of Fascist salute with both hands. Carmelina said: "I doubt it. Where is the proof?" Gargano said: "See my uniform," and he ran his two forefingers from his shoulders to his knees. Carmelina said: "That is no proof. The Americans do not care how we dress. I could dress as a rabbit and the Americans would not arrest me." Gargano said: "Woman, stop your shouting, or I will arrest you," and he gripped his own left wrist with his own right hand, signifying arrest. Carmelina said; "Where is your authority?" Margherita the formidable wife of Craxi said: "I believe that this man ~s still Chief, since the Mister Major is keeping many Fascist scoundrels in office until they prove themselves bad. But I do not believe that under American law he has the right to go to the head of the line. That is where I think you are right, Carmelina." Gargano stepped out of the line. "Who questions my right?" he roared, and he pounded one clenched fist on the otner clenchetl fist. Carmelina, wife of the lazy Fatta, standing right beside him, startled him by whispering in his ear: "I question it, Two-Hands." Up to this time Zapulla the baker, standing in the front of his shop, had been torn between the two authorities, the old and the new. But he was so annoyed with Carmelina for having prodded him that he now said: "Arrest her, Mister Chief, if you have any courage." Up to this time Gargano the Chief, somewhat unsure of his ground, had been trying to think of a way of retiring gracefully. But now his manhood, as well as his authority, was challenged. He moved toward Carmelina and said: "Woman, you are under arrest." Carmelina shouted: "Keep your two active hands off me, Gargano." Zapulla said: "Will you let this woman shriek down your courage?" Gargano clapped his hands on Carmelina. She screamed. All up and down the line women shouted: "Out with the Fascist Chief of Carabinieri. Out with Two-Hands. Out with men who push themselves to the head of a line ahead of women who have been waiting three hours." Gargano dragged Carrnelina off screaming and kicking, and the antiGargano, anti-Fascist screams in the line grew louder and louder. Even Mercurio Salvatore, although as crier he was more or less an offic ial and should have remained neutral or even taken the side of Gargano, 1 raised his huge voice in a careful shout: "Down with injustice!" When Gargano pulled Carmelina into Major Joppolo's office, she was still screaming. But the Major jumped to his feet and said sharply: "Silence, shrew," and she fell quiet at once. "What is this all about?" the Major asked. Gargano said: "This woman questioned my authority," and he pointed at her with both forefingers. Carmelina said: "There is more to it than that." I Major Joppolo said: "Your au· thority to do whut, Gargano?" Carmelina shouted: "To push his way to the head of the line in front of Zapulla's bread shop." Gargano said: "It is a privilege the officials of the town have always enjoyed." Major Joppolo said: "Is that so?" Gargano said: "I charge this woman with disturbing the peace and questioning authority." Gargano was shrewd in saying this, for he saw that things were going against him, and now he had put the matter on an official rather than o personal basis. The Major would have to decide the case officially. The Major decided with a speed which dazzled Gargano . He decided that the woman was right but that he could not say so, because if he did the Chief would never regain his authority, and the M<c1jor wanted to keep him in office. Therefore he said: "I sentence this woman to one day in jail, suspended sentence. Let her go, Gargano, and gather all the officials of Adano for me at once." When Carmelina got outside, she ran straight back to the bread shop. The bread was not ready yet, and the people gave her back her place at the head of the line and shouted to her: "What happened, Carmelina? What did they do to you?" Carmelina told what had happened and she said: "Did you ever hear of such a light sentence in Adano? I believe in my heart that the Mister Major thought I was right. Al'd what .. ... .' J .~.~- . ·~ "Get off the road." was the meaning of assembling the officials? I believe that he was for me." In the Major's office, the officials gradually assembled. Some were held-over Fascists, some were new appointments to take the place of Fascists who had fied to the hills. In whispers, and with ample gestures, Gargano described to them the hl'.miliation he had suffered, until Major Joppolo said: "Silence, please.'' The officials drew up in a circle around the Major's desk. The Major stood up. "I want you .to be my friends," he said. "As my friends, I will consider it my duty to tell you everything I think, for we do not want Adana to be a town of mysteries and a place of suspicion. "Adana has been a Fascist town. That is natural, because the country was Fascist, therefore the town was also. But now that the Americans have come, we are going to run the town as a democracy. "Perhaps you do not know what a democracy is. I will tell you. "Democracy is this: democracy is that the men of the government are no longer the masters of the people. They are the servants of the people. What makes a man master of another man? It is that he pays him for his work. Who pays the men in the government? The people do, for they pay the taxes out of which you are paid. "Therefore you are now the servants of the people of Adano. I too am their servant. When I go to buy bread, I shall take my place at the end of the line, and I will wait my turn. You too must behave now as servants, not as masters. You must behave as the servant of the man without shoes just as much as of the baron. If I find that any of you are not giving the type of service that I desire, I shall have to remove you from office. "Remember: you are servants now. You are servants of the peopie of Adano. And watch: this thing will make you happier than you have ever been in your lives." On the ninth morning, General Marvin was driving along the road toward Vicinamare and came to the town of Adana. From time to time along the road his driver had had to slow down behind the little Italian I DEPARTMENT Looking at .-wr-~·~ ) ~.-;~[: 9zr John 1-IersetJ ~ arion · -~~ CLASSIFIED ~pe/1.: two-wheeled carts of the countryside until traffic from the opposite direction had gone by. Then he passed the carts. As they passed each cart, General Marvin waved his riding crop in such a way as to indicate that the cart should move over. Since there was nothing to move over into except the ditch, which at intervals along the road expanded into tank traps, the carts never did move over. The General grew angrier and angriH. Now it happened that just as he came to the Fiume Rosso. or Red River, just before Adano, the General's armored car was obliged to slow down for a cart which meandered along right in the center of the road. The General stood up in his car and shouted in his deep bass voice (you've read about that voice in the suppl ements; it'f; famous; one writer said it was like "a foghorn gone articulate"): "Get off the road!" Unfortunately the driver of the cart was one Errante Gaetano, who earlier that morning had sold three dozen eggs to American soldiers at fourteen times the proper price, had immediately sunk most of his profits in the wine of his friend Mattaliano, and was now sleeping a deep and happy sleep on the seat of his cart. At this particular moment, he was dreamin,g about eating the nicer parts of a fish nine feet long. Naturally he did not pay rnuch attention to the voice of General Marvin, no matter how famous the voice, because he could not hear it. General Marvin roared at his driver: "Blow your horn. Blow him off the road." The driver, a nice boy from Massachusetts, put the heel of his hand on the horn button against his own wish. He was in no hurry, and knf'W that no matter how fast they went, he would only have to wait when they got wherever they were going. The mind of Errante did not react to the horn, even though the horn was something urgent called a klaxon. The cart kept right down the middle of the road, inasmuch as Errante's mule was a cautious creature, just as wary of ditches on the right as of ditches on the left. This was a quality in his mule of which Errante Gaetano often boasted to his friends. "Give me none of your lop-sided mules," he would say, "glve me a mule with a sense of the middle." This sense was going to be the undoing of his mule just now, because General Marvin's face was beginning to grow dark, and some veins which have never been described in the supplements began to wriggle and pound on his forehead. "I've had enough of these carts," the General shouted. He was standing up in the car, waving his riding crop around. "Do they think they're going to stop the invasion with carts?" Errante slept beautifully. He was coming to the gray part of the fish just under the ribs. It melted in the mouth of his dream. There was, however, a sound of thunder in the distance which made him think perhaps he had better cover the fish and finish eating the nice parts after the rain. General Marvin roared: "Do these Italians think they're going to stop a bunch of tanks with a bunch of wooden carts?" Colonel Middleton, the General's Chief of Staff, and Lieutenant Byrd, his aide, could see the violence coming. Lieutenant Byrd looked back along the road, but he couldn't see any bunch of tanks. The only thing he could see that was being held up besides the General's armored car was one seep, or amphibious jeep, which did not seem to be in a hurry. Here it came. General Marvin shouted: "Throw that cart off the road." Errante stirred in his sleep. The thunder of his dream was the most beautiful and most continuous thunder he had ever heard. The six men surrounded the cart. Colonel Middleton reached up to waken Errante, but the General's roars grew louder. "What are you doing?" he bellowed. "I told you to throw the thing off the road." "We were just going to wake this fellow up and get him off first," Colonel Middleton shouted back, but the shout was weak because he knew what the answer would be. "Serve him right. Throw him too. Just turn the whole thing over." There was no protest from any of the six men. The only thing which was said was muttered by Lieutenant Byrd: "The old man hasn't. been getting enough sleep lately." Colonel Middleton went to the head of the mule and guided it to the side of the road. He directed the other five men to take positions on the left side of the cart and ' to lift together when he gave the signal. General Marvin roared: "Come on, get i~ over with. What a bunch of softies. Get it over with." Colonel Middleton gave the signal. The five men lifted. In his dream, Errante. rose up above the nine-foot fish and soared off into space. The sensation was extremely pleasant.

HOLLYWOOD of connoisseurs A COMMITTEE in chic headed by Lady 1\lendl HELP WANTED-MEN, recently named Gene Tierney the best dressed girl in moviedom. Just prior to that a national magazine listed Gene among the top four beauties of the screen, the others being Hedy Lamarr, Ingrid Bergman, and Linda Darnell. And since 20th-Century-Fox's talent poll evidently puts her at the acting top-she's come off with all the best roles the lot has to offer in 1945-I thought it time to find out how Gene feels about life in general. It's amusing to know that the next two Tierney Gene Tierney releases will not display Gene's modern sartoriH I to 1ents. When I came on the "Dra p-nnwyck" set, where she was making a scene with Vincent Price, she was v, PC1 r;n~ the fashions of 1944. And in "A Eel! for Adana," which is being shown in theaters this month, she's clnrl Jn the picturesque tatterdemalion of a peasant girl in a captured Itahan town. But not until "Leave Her to Heaven," which Gene begin~ in late spring, will she wear a ch1c modern wardrobe again-the sort of clothes that made "Laura" such a hit with women.

Take It From Me Since nobody has gotten around to awarding Gene the medal for brains-such evidently not being included in obvious star assets-let me be the one to name her one of the most nimble minds in one of the steadiest little heads ever crowned by laurels. Designers love to create bizarre and extravagant whimsies to emphasize her intriguing face and rhythmic design. But in her private life and tastes Gene is conservative to a degree. Wears little or no makeup, and her shining brown hair is the precise shade nature gave her. So, because 5he's young, superlovely, mother of a 15-month-old daughter, Daria, and a happy wife, Gene's fans have come to think of her as a sort of high priest· ess of the modern theme. A girl of tomorrow. Nothing is farther from the truth. "Hedda," she said, "sometimes I really think our fans believe we live in a sort of crystal and plastic dream world. But I'm not looking forward to jumping into a helicopter and landing on the studio root instead of driving down the canyon each morning with good old Butch my police dog, on the front seat be-' side me. And, aside from the fact in personal tastes, I'm really not looking forward to the day when television, all-out air transport, and chores done by robots in solar houses will be a reality. Think how much charm it will take from living Besides, few of the young things of today realize it will take years and years to develop such living. A lot of my friends seem to feel the post-victory year will be something worthy of Jules Verne's irnagina tion.

She herself was in line for the British succession as the great-granddaughter of Mary, Queen of Scots. \v11en her death, in 1714, prevented fulfillment of the act of parliament by which she would have b~n offered the crown, her son, as George I, became the first of the Hannovcrian dynasty to rule England. Besides the Hannoverian and Br1tish lines, Sophia was associated with the royal house uf Prussia by the marriage of her daughter, Sophia Charlotte, to Frederick I, first king of Prussia. Her granddaughter, Sophia Dorothea, married Frederick William I of Prussia, and became mother of Frederick the Great. In Great Britain, although the Hannover blood relationship remained, the male succession of the house was broken when Victoria came to the throne and married AI· bert, of the German state of SaxeCoburg and Gotha. During the First World war, George V relinquished nil German titles.

The men were up at 2:ao a. m. and at their battle stations soon afterward, undaunted by three .J ap auicide planes which mKde futile runs against the ship. At 6:30 11, m., along with other ships of the task force the battleship begRn her final bombardment on pillboxes, airplane revetments, observation posts and caves.

The ship's bombardment had paid off. I P. F. C. B1till Home Liberated about four months after he was first listed as missing in action, P. F. C. William J.

My company of first division marines dug in at the edge of a bomb-shattered village. The village was quaint and not without charm. I was astonished at the similarity with the villages of Sicily and Italy. Extend the Meat With Noodles and Gravy (See Recipes Below) Point-Easy Patterns Some of our homemakers feel tha)l rationing has become so tight, it is difficwlt to set a tasty dish before the family. It's true we are learning to use a great variety of foods, but all these can be made delicious as well as pleasing as to appearance. Humble meats like hamburger and liver can be dressed attractively and made to taste like high-point foods. Imagine eatin'g , golden brown, wafer-thin pancakes, filled with a well-seasoned meat mixture. Good? Of course, pass the seconds, please. You can stuff small slices of liver with your favorite celery or onion dressing and braise them in a savory tomato sauce. There's little bPtt~r. If you have taken it a little bit ea"y on the main course, you can a' ys go the limit with the des'"'' t . ' Cream pies are "luscious even though their whipped cream toppings are missing. Frothy egg whites are just as pretty and tasty. Fresh vegetables and fruit platters are ideal for adding color to the table. Try a freshly cooked snowy white cauliflower in the center of a platter and surround it with slivered green beans and tomato cups with golden corn kernel centers. If it's a fruit platter you've set your cap for, then you'll like melon (preferably cantaloupe with its center scooped out and filled with a fruit gelatin salad, and garnished on the platter with slices of pineapple mounted with fresh berries or grapes. Hamburger Filled Potato Pancakes (Serves 6 to 8) 1 pound hamburger 2 teaspoons salt ~cup milk .2 tablespoons fine, dry bread crumbs '% tablespoons fat 4 cups grated raw potatoes 2 tablespoons grated onions % teaspoon pepper 2 eggs, beaten 1,4 cup flour 2 tablespoons milk Combine meat, 1 teaspoon salt, milk and bread crumbs. Mix well and shape into thin patties. Brown m hot fat. Combine potatoes, remaining salt, pepper, eggs, flour and milk. Mix well. Remove meat from trying pan. Add more fat. Place a small amount of the potato mixture into hot fat. Top with meat pattie. 'Then cover with more potato mix-ture (potato mixture should form a thin coating). Fry slowly until brown. Turn and brown on other side. These Hamburger Filled Pancakes may be served with sauerkraut. Place the kraut in the center of a platter and arrange pancakes in a border around it. Lynn Says: 1\leat 1\temos: Extend low-point meats with breading, garnishing and fillings to make them appetizing and point-saving. Bacon can, be dipped in beaten egg and bread crumbs, th!m fried and served as an appetizing meat course. Honeycomb or pocket tripe becomes savory when giv~n the egg and bread crumb treatment. Serve it with broiled bacon and tomatoes for flavor contrast. Ground lamb patties take on flavor value V{hen served with grilled fresh pineapple and tomato slices. ' Small shdl.llder roasts will stretch further when stuffed with bread, celery, parsley or onion dressing. Make plenty of rich grayy for a fill-in feature.

The houses were wooden onestory buildings, surrounded by little vegetable gardens. Instead of fences, each lot was clivided by rows of shrubs or trees. The cobblestoned streets were just wide enough for a jeep. They were winding and walled on both sides by head-high stone walls. ~ A good part of the town lay shattered. Scores of the houses had burned and only ashes and red roofing tile were left. Wandering around, I counted the bodies of four Okinawans still in the streets. Otherwise the town was deserted. The people had fled to their caves in the hillsides, taking most of their persdnal belongin~s with them. There is almost no furniture in Japanese houses, so they didn't have to worry about that. After a few days the grapevine carried the word to them that we were treating them well so they began to come out in droves and give themselves up. I heard one story about a hundred Okinawa civilians who had a J ap soldier among them, and when they realized the atrocity stories he had told them about the Americans were untrue, our MPs had to step in to keep them from beating him. M arine:r Have Run ol Town Our company commander picked out a nice little house on a rise at the edge of town for his command post. The house was very light, fairly clean, and the floors were covered with woven straw mats. A couple of officers and a dozen men moved into the house and slept on the floor and we cooked our rations over an open stone cookstove in the rear. Then t'he word1 went ·around Tor' the men of the company to dig in for several days. Two platoons were assigned to clig in along the outer sides of the nearby hills for perimeter defense. The boys were told they could keep the horses they had commandeered, that they could carry wooden panels out of the houses to make little doghouses for themselves, but not to take anything else, and that they could have fires, except during air alerts. They weren't to start their daily mop-up patrols in the brush until the next day, so they had the afternoon off to clean themselves up and fix up their little houses. Different men did different things. Some built elaborate houses about the size of chicken houses, with floor mats and chairs and even kerosene lanterns hanging from the roof. One Mexican boy dug a hole, covered it with boards, and then camouflaged it so perfectly with brush you really couldn't see it. Some spent the afternoon taking baths and washing clothes in the river. Some rode bicycles around town. Some rode their horses up and down. Some foraged around town through the d eserted houses. Some went looking for chickens to cook. Some sat in groups and talked. Some just slept. An order went out against wearing Jap clothing or eating any of the local vegetables, pork, goat, beef or fowl. But this was before the order came out. The marines had dug up lots of Japanese kimonos out of the smashed houses and put them on wliile washing their one set of clothes. If you ever want to see a funny sight, just take a look at a few dozen dirty and unshaven marines walking around in pink and blue women's kimonos. A typical example was Pvt. Raymond Adams of Gleason, Tenn. He had fixed himself a dugout right on the edge of a bluff above the river. He had a grand view and a nice little grassy front yard. Out there he had driven stakes and built a fire. He hung his helmet over the fire like a kettle and was stewing ~hicken. He had taken of! his clothes and put on a beautiful pinkand-white kimono. Later a friend came along with a Jap bicycle with one _pedal off, I Released by Western Newspaper Union. and Adams tried without much success to ride it up and down a nearby lane. If there ever is a war play about marines I hope they include one tough-looking private in a pink-andwhite kimono, stewing chicken and trying to ride a one-pedaled bicycle through a shattered Japanese village. Private Adams is married and has a boy eight months old he has never seen. If the baby could have seen his father that day he would probabl~ have got the colic from laughing so much. • • • AN ADORABLE out- of - doors outfit for a sweet little girl.

We were in no danger on the march-at least we thought we weren't, so not all the marines wore steel helmets.

I've always enjoyed going along with an infantry company on the move, even some of the horrible moves such as we had in Italy and France. But the move we made that morning here on Okinawa was really a pleasant one. It was early morning and the air was good. The temperature was perfect. The country was pretty. l'le all• felt that• sense of ease when you know nothing very bad is ahead of you. There is no weight on your spirit. Some of the boys were even smoking cigars. 50% More for your Money! JO¢ Funny Sighb In Moving Column There are always funny sights in a column of soldiers moving along Our mortar platoon had comman deered a dozen local horses to carry heayy pieces. One of the marines had tied the pack onto his horse with a Japanese obi-one of those brightly colored reams of sash Japanese women bear on their backs. And here came tl;lis marine, dirty and unshaven, leading a sorrel horse with a big bowtie of black and white silk, three feet wide, lied across its chest and another similar one tied under its belly, the ends standing out on both sides. Troops carry the oddest things when they move. One marine had a J ap photo album in his hand. One had a wicker basket. Another had a lacquered serving tray. They even had a Columbia phonograph with Jap records, strapped onto a horse. Lots of them wore Japanese insignia or pieces of uniform. Later an order came out that any marine caught wearing Jap clothing would be put on burial detail. I guess that was to keep marines from shooting each other by mistake. • • • There were frequent holdups ahead of us and we would stop and sit down every hundred yards or so. One marine commenting on the slow progress said: "Sometimes we take off like a ruptured duck, and other times we just creep along." The word was passed down the line, "Keep your eyes open for planes." About every sixth man would turn his head and repeat it and the word was sent back along the column like a wave. Except toward the r ear they made it comical"Keep your eyes open for planes - keep your eyes open for cabbages -keep your eyes open for Geisha girls." We were walking almost on each other's heels, a solid double line of marines. My friend, Bird Dog Clayton, was behind me.

Today our great fight is but hal£ won. Japan, our final and most dangerous enemy, still lives. Japan still boasts an army of 4,000,000 fanatical, lastditch fighters, with half again that many in reserve. Japan's huge, ill-gotten wealth of Empire is still essen· tially intact. Japan still hates our guts. Today we can, if we choose, start breaking faith with those who died. We can go on a fool's orgy, get drunk on our success so far. Or we can, if we choose, pray for our dead, and for the lives of those who have so far been spared. We can stay on the job, buy another War Bond, give a pint of blood.

TIME ot deepest satisfaction for the Victory gardener is when he begins to harvest his crop. For weeks he has been tending these crops with care and watching with interest as the young plants grew and developed. · "We h~d fresh vegetables out of our own garden," is a statement of 1 prideful accomplishment. But even I as it took care in the preparation and I " • • cultjvation of the garden, equal care should ?e taken in harvestmg the crop. Too many gardeners, in attempts to get lan;er growth \fiCTfJ~Y and yield, delay h~rvest beyond the stage of best qua!Jty. No vegetable should be allowed to become tough, ,coarse, ove1 grown and unpalatable before being harvested. I Quantity is important, but so is quality. Which brings us back to the t1me when ttle plants break through the ground and start growing straight and strong and evenly down the rows-the question of thinning j lhe plants. Don't be afraid to thin out I your rows. Give the root plants room to grow. Beets, carrots, parsnips, turnips, radishes, on· ions, rutabagas, salsify, kohlrabi and other root plants should be 1 thinned to a bout one to three i':'ches apart, depending on the SIZe or the _root.

J There is one thing in which the nation's farmers and our military leaders have a common stake ... an element which can upset the most carefully laid military plans and the most meticulously planned agricultural program-the weather. The farmers' success in planting and harvesting and American combat success in combined land- sea- air operations can come only through close observance of the scientific predictions of the weatherman. For the weather is often used as a military weapon by our military strategists, and our farmers are dependent upon the vagaries of the weather to harvest a record production, or a crop failure. No military operation-whether it is a minor sortie by a group of fighters, a bombing mission on an enemy city, naval bombardment of a Jap i"land, a ground attack in China, or a large scale invasion-is never blueprinted unless latest weather information is first consulted. Success of an attack is ofttimes dependent upon clear weather, though American forces have profitably exploited bad weather to make offensive strikes against the enemy.

The answer lies in the extremely high income tu rates which apply to rrly wages, added as they are to my other income, and to the fact that I must pay not only federal income taxes but also state income taxes." This man is not the only big-company official in the country who has cut a lordly income to less than 10 cents a month. Why do they do it? Because their big salaries benefit them so little and cost their firms so much.

Men who cut o!I big salaries have other income. That's why their tax rates are so high. That's why they can afford to spurn a salary. But if they musl decline the proceeds of their own invested earnings, one thing is sure: They will not invest further earnings to start new ventures or expand old ones. Investments in business are not safe, never have been. Any investment is a risk. Men with money invest it only when they believe, to the best of their judgment, that it will pay realienable returns. Now they are sure ot only one thing: Nearly everything an investment earns will be taxed away from them. Will they invest in new enterprises? No. Then where will our returning service men find work? Unless present tax laws are changed soon, they will tlnd it on a huge W. P.

Coal was first discovered by American colonists near Richmond. but was not mined commerC'aly until 1'150, says the National Geographic society. The first mine was at Midlothian, 12 miles west of the city. The Richmond basin was mined commercially for more than a hundred years, and still contains coal, but little is now mined. Steel, necessary for almost every type of defense equipment. is a measure of coal's import<tnce. When Virginia coal production began, eleven colonies had ironworks, using charcoal to produce about 10,000 tons of iron a year, and small amounts of steel. Demands of World War II increased steel production by more than 50,00CJ,OOO tons a year. It requires about a ton and half of coal to make the coke to smelt a ton of pig iro!l to make steel.

Based on the Act of Chapultepec drawn at the recent Pan-American convention in Mexico City, the South American proposal envisions North Sea the use of force to repel aggressiC1n against any of the Latin republics without awaiting the official sanction of the international security organization, any of whose major members might veto such a move. An extension of the Monroe Doctrine, the plan thus preserves primary responsibility for the security of an area in the hands of countries immediately concerned. Discussion of the regional security proposal came as the U. S. and Britain tried to reconcile their differing views on postwar trusteeships over ·conquered terntories after the war, with this country standing for exclusive use of military bases upon strategic islands and the British insisting upon control subject to the security organization. Meantime, sentiment in congress grew for unfettered U. S. use of any postwar bases in the Pacific vital to defense in the area. Since this country primarily will be responsible for keep~ng the peace in the Pacific, Senator Byrd (Va.) declared it Flags identify Allied forces occupying German territory in accord- should not be subject to supervision ance with postwar plans. In addition to Russia taking over the east, the by any other nation or group. "It's British the northwest, and the Americans the south, the French reportedly little enough for us to ask," said the senator. are to occupy the Rhineland. Old Pitfalls Stand in Way of Future Peace L--------- SUGAR: ONE FRONT: Speedy Shift Despite persistent reports of Jap peace feelers, America is going full speed ahead for an all-out war in the Pacific following Getmany's unconditional surrender, bringing the European conflict to an end after almost six years of the bitterest figh1ing in history. No sooner had Col. Gen. Gustav Jodi officially thrown in the sponge for Germany on orders of Fuehrer Karl Doenitz than the American high command geared itself for a shift to the Pacific, with plans calling for retention of an army of 6,968,000 and navy of 3,389,000; the transfer of many air wings to the east to supplement Super-Fort raids on Japan, and the shipment of almost 3,000,000 troops from Europe within a year. At the same time, however, provision was made for keeping 400,000 American troops in Germany to occupy the southwestern part of the country while the French take over the Rhineland, the British the northwest and the Russians the east. Way Out Reading the handwriting on the wan even while Germany was still hanging on the ropes, Jap businessmen, ·seeing their industries being retluced to rubble even before t h e U. S. could throw her full weight into the fray, reportedly made indire'ct approaches for peace. If such is Japan's Pres. 'l'ruman intent despite the recent announcement of her government officials about a fight to the finish, Pres. Barry S. Truman was seen as offering the Japanese an opportunity to give up and still save face by his detailed definition of "unconditiOnal surrender" in a V-E day statement. Then, the President said: •'It (unconditional surrender) means the end of the war. '"It means the termination of the influencP of the military leaders who have brought Japan to the present brink of disaster. "It means provision for the return of soldiers and sailors to their families, their farms, their jobs. "It means not prolonging the present agony and suffering of the Japanese in the vain hope of victory." In shifting U. S. strength to the Pacific, the services plan to ship some construction, supply and maintenance forces directly from the European theater, while moving the bulk oyer through this country. Map l1 ovements Including some 1,000.000 troops with extE>nded combat records, who are to be released along with the \\'Otmded and averaged, the army will bring 845.000 men home in the first quarter after V-E day: 1,185,000 in the second, and 807,000 in the thu·d. Those who will be retained for the Pacific war will be given a 30·clay furlough, then reassigned for duty. Need for staggering the return of troops from Europe stems from the gigantic task of transferring equipment for the Pacific war. According to estimates, from 60 to 75 HIGHLIGHTS tJnited States stocks of corn, oats a11d barley on farms, at terminal markets, and government-owned on April 1 totaled 47,700,000 tons, about 19 per cent more than a year earlier and almost as large as the average for the five preceding years, when stocks wE're comparatively large.

New Problem Survival of German Myth, Desertion of Democratic Elements Would Weaken Postwar Security Structure. By BAUKHAGE Ne1n Analyst and CommenUitor. \VNU Service, llnion Trust Building, Washington, D. C. SAN FRANCISCO. - California sunshine is pouring down on the bay. a great white fog has begun to drape the distant, gray-green hills in the folds of its floating robe. It has been a day of conferences and interviews where the great tragedi es of little countries-Albania. Korea, Poland-and the little differences between great countries have been tossed at us, in vibrant earnest voices, in stiff and proper accents. It would be easy to lose sight of woods for the trees. But as I sit here leafing over faded notes of another such conference, I know that the tremendous goal for which these delegates have striven is so much higher, so much wider than all the 1 little controversies that it still is just what the chambermaid in my ho1 tel said it was. Sh.e was gray haired. She had a son on Saipan, she told me, and when I asked her what she thought of this gathering she laid down an armful of linen and looked up. "I guess this is just about the most important thing that ever happened," she said, "trying to stop wars." 1 1 How important this meeting will prove to be depends on how well the world avoids the pitfalls which wrecked its last attempt to treat war as we treat disease: not as something that we irreverently consider as an act of God, like a tornado. but something to which mankind is exposed through ignorance and indifference and which can be prevented. Why did the League of Nations fail? What are the pitfalls which the United Nations must avoid?

As a resuJt of this increase in the supply, the number of civilian workers employed rose to 50,800,000 in March from 50,500,000 last year. Steps were taken by more than a dozen states this year to increase old age assistance allotments and aid to dependent children. Aged persons in Delaware now may receive $30 monthly under legislation raising the maximum to that figure from $25 a month. Wyoming raised its maximum to $50 a month, Utah increased maximum benefits from $30 to $40, Washington put old age assistance on the basis of need and provided $50 minimum for persons over 65.

Therefore it would be easy for whoever claims official fuehrership to have moved into Norway while it was still in German hands, take a long-distance submarine and find asylum and support in some country which would conceal his identity and where sufficient sympathy for nazifascism existed, to carry on underground activities and foster the myth of the immortality of nazi-dom just as the myth of the German army's invincibility was kept alive. That is one thing that apparently is not realized. It is important. It must be watched.

The most profitable was .a broadcast application of 500 pounds or a 6 - 6 - 20 plus 500 pounds of a 3-12-12 applied as a sidedressing. The fertilizer cost $20.80 and Increased yields 69 per cent.

Serl:'eant Dorth, an M.P., was In charge of securl· ty. The lllaJor ~et out Immediately to win the friendship and confidence of the cltlzcroo and vowed to replace the town bell, which the German~ bad taken. Ma· jor Joppolo talked with Father Pcnso· veccbio, local priest. He promised the priest to attend mass the following mornIng. When tinte for mass arrived, the M ajcr was busy In hls office and over· looked the appointment, until church bell awoke him to the fact tbat he was late. hearing-aid 'lT'RY IT 4 At this angry moment, Gargano, Chief of the Carabinieri, came up to the line. This man was called by the people The Man With Two Hands, because of his continuous 1 and dramatic gesturing. He was, seemed to think, an actor, and j he he could not say two words without gesturing with both hands. He possessed and exercised all the essf'ntially Italian gestures: the two forefingers laid side by side, the circle of thumb and forefinger, the hands up in stop position, the salute to the forehead with palm forward, the fingertips of the two hands placed tip to tip, the fingers linked, the hands flat and downward as i! patting sand, the hands up heel to heel and pulled toward the chest, the attitude of prayer, the pointing forefinger of accusation, the V as if for victory or smoking cigarettes, the forefinger on the chin, the rolling of the hands. All, he used them all. He did not make any arrests. He merely went up to Carmelina, wife of the lazy Fatta, and squeezed between her and the door of Zapulla's shop, and stood there. The people could see that he was merely taking his place at the head of the line to wait for bread. Carmelina, who was annoyed by having had wood-coke thrown at her, said truculently: "Mister Gargano, you were Chief of the Carabinieri under the old regime, and that entitled you to stand at the head of the line. I am not sure that you are still Chief of the Carabinieri." Gargano said: "I am the Chief," and he made a kind of Fascist salute with both hands. Carmelina said: "I doubt it. Where is the proof?" Gargano said: "See my uniform," and he ran his two forefingers from his shoulders to his knees. Carmelina said: "That is no proof. The Americans do not care how we dress. I could dress as a rabbit and the Americans would not arrest me." Gargano said: "Woman, stop your shouting, or I will arrest you," and he gripped his own left wrist with his own right hand, signifying arrest. Carmelina said; "Where is your authority?" Margherita the formidable wife of Craxi said: "I believe that this man ~s still Chief, since the Mister Major is keeping many Fascist scoundrels in office until they prove themselves bad. But I do not believe that under American law he has the right to go to the head of the line. That is where I think you are right, Carmelina." Gargano stepped out of the line. "Who questions my right?" he roared, and he pounded one clenched fist on the otner clenchetl fist. Carmelina, wife of the lazy Fatta, standing right beside him, startled him by whispering in his ear: "I question it, Two-Hands." Up to this time Zapulla the baker, standing in the front of his shop, had been torn between the two authorities, the old and the new. But he was so annoyed with Carmelina for having prodded him that he now said: "Arrest her, Mister Chief, if you have any courage." Up to this time Gargano the Chief, somewhat unsure of his ground, had been trying to think of a way of retiring gracefully. But now his manhood, as well as his authority, was challenged. He moved toward Carmelina and said: "Woman, you are under arrest." Carmelina shouted: "Keep your two active hands off me, Gargano." Zapulla said: "Will you let this woman shriek down your courage?" Gargano clapped his hands on Carmelina. She screamed. All up and down the line women shouted: "Out with the Fascist Chief of Carabinieri. Out with Two-Hands. Out with men who push themselves to the head of a line ahead of women who have been waiting three hours." Gargano dragged Carrnelina off screaming and kicking, and the antiGargano, anti-Fascist screams in the line grew louder and louder. Even Mercurio Salvatore, although as crier he was more or less an offic ial and should have remained neutral or even taken the side of Gargano, 1 raised his huge voice in a careful shout: "Down with injustice!" When Gargano pulled Carmelina into Major Joppolo's office, she was still screaming. But the Major jumped to his feet and said sharply: "Silence, shrew," and she fell quiet at once. "What is this all about?" the Major asked. Gargano said: "This woman questioned my authority," and he pointed at her with both forefingers. Carmelina said: "There is more to it than that." I Major Joppolo said: "Your au· thority to do whut, Gargano?" Carmelina shouted: "To push his way to the head of the line in front of Zapulla's bread shop." Gargano said: "It is a privilege the officials of the town have always enjoyed." Major Joppolo said: "Is that so?" Gargano said: "I charge this woman with disturbing the peace and questioning authority." Gargano was shrewd in saying this, for he saw that things were going against him, and now he had put the matter on an official rather than o personal basis. The Major would have to decide the case officially. The Major decided with a speed which dazzled Gargano . He decided that the woman was right but that he could not say so, because if he did the Chief would never regain his authority, and the M<c1jor wanted to keep him in office. Therefore he said: "I sentence this woman to one day in jail, suspended sentence. Let her go, Gargano, and gather all the officials of Adano for me at once." When Carmelina got outside, she ran straight back to the bread shop. The bread was not ready yet, and the people gave her back her place at the head of the line and shouted to her: "What happened, Carmelina? What did they do to you?" Carmelina told what had happened and she said: "Did you ever hear of such a light sentence in Adano? I believe in my heart that the Mister Major thought I was right. Al'd what .. ... .' J .~.~- . ·~ "Get off the road." was the meaning of assembling the officials? I believe that he was for me." In the Major's office, the officials gradually assembled. Some were held-over Fascists, some were new appointments to take the place of Fascists who had fied to the hills. In whispers, and with ample gestures, Gargano described to them the hl'.miliation he had suffered, until Major Joppolo said: "Silence, please.'' The officials drew up in a circle around the Major's desk. The Major stood up. "I want you .to be my friends," he said. "As my friends, I will consider it my duty to tell you everything I think, for we do not want Adana to be a town of mysteries and a place of suspicion. "Adana has been a Fascist town. That is natural, because the country was Fascist, therefore the town was also. But now that the Americans have come, we are going to run the town as a democracy. "Perhaps you do not know what a democracy is. I will tell you. "Democracy is this: democracy is that the men of the government are no longer the masters of the people. They are the servants of the people. What makes a man master of another man? It is that he pays him for his work. Who pays the men in the government? The people do, for they pay the taxes out of which you are paid. "Therefore you are now the servants of the people of Adano. I too am their servant. When I go to buy bread, I shall take my place at the end of the line, and I will wait my turn. You too must behave now as servants, not as masters. You must behave as the servant of the man without shoes just as much as of the baron. If I find that any of you are not giving the type of service that I desire, I shall have to remove you from office. "Remember: you are servants now. You are servants of the peopie of Adano. And watch: this thing will make you happier than you have ever been in your lives." On the ninth morning, General Marvin was driving along the road toward Vicinamare and came to the town of Adana. From time to time along the road his driver had had to slow down behind the little Italian I DEPARTMENT Looking at .-wr-~·~ ) ~.-;~[: 9zr John 1-IersetJ ~ arion · -~~ CLASSIFIED ~pe/1.: two-wheeled carts of the countryside until traffic from the opposite direction had gone by. Then he passed the carts. As they passed each cart, General Marvin waved his riding crop in such a way as to indicate that the cart should move over. Since there was nothing to move over into except the ditch, which at intervals along the road expanded into tank traps, the carts never did move over. The General grew angrier and angriH. Now it happened that just as he came to the Fiume Rosso. or Red River, just before Adano, the General's armored car was obliged to slow down for a cart which meandered along right in the center of the road. The General stood up in his car and shouted in his deep bass voice (you've read about that voice in the suppl ements; it'f; famous; one writer said it was like "a foghorn gone articulate"): "Get off the road!" Unfortunately the driver of the cart was one Errante Gaetano, who earlier that morning had sold three dozen eggs to American soldiers at fourteen times the proper price, had immediately sunk most of his profits in the wine of his friend Mattaliano, and was now sleeping a deep and happy sleep on the seat of his cart. At this particular moment, he was dreamin,g about eating the nicer parts of a fish nine feet long. Naturally he did not pay rnuch attention to the voice of General Marvin, no matter how famous the voice, because he could not hear it. General Marvin roared at his driver: "Blow your horn. Blow him off the road." The driver, a nice boy from Massachusetts, put the heel of his hand on the horn button against his own wish. He was in no hurry, and knf'W that no matter how fast they went, he would only have to wait when they got wherever they were going. The mind of Errante did not react to the horn, even though the horn was something urgent called a klaxon. The cart kept right down the middle of the road, inasmuch as Errante's mule was a cautious creature, just as wary of ditches on the right as of ditches on the left. This was a quality in his mule of which Errante Gaetano often boasted to his friends. "Give me none of your lop-sided mules," he would say, "glve me a mule with a sense of the middle." This sense was going to be the undoing of his mule just now, because General Marvin's face was beginning to grow dark, and some veins which have never been described in the supplements began to wriggle and pound on his forehead. "I've had enough of these carts," the General shouted. He was standing up in the car, waving his riding crop around. "Do they think they're going to stop the invasion with carts?" Errante slept beautifully. He was coming to the gray part of the fish just under the ribs. It melted in the mouth of his dream. There was, however, a sound of thunder in the distance which made him think perhaps he had better cover the fish and finish eating the nice parts after the rain. General Marvin roared: "Do these Italians think they're going to stop a bunch of tanks with a bunch of wooden carts?" Colonel Middleton, the General's Chief of Staff, and Lieutenant Byrd, his aide, could see the violence coming. Lieutenant Byrd looked back along the road, but he couldn't see any bunch of tanks. The only thing he could see that was being held up besides the General's armored car was one seep, or amphibious jeep, which did not seem to be in a hurry. Here it came. General Marvin shouted: "Throw that cart off the road." Errante stirred in his sleep. The thunder of his dream was the most beautiful and most continuous thunder he had ever heard. The six men surrounded the cart. Colonel Middleton reached up to waken Errante, but the General's roars grew louder. "What are you doing?" he bellowed. "I told you to throw the thing off the road." "We were just going to wake this fellow up and get him off first," Colonel Middleton shouted back, but the shout was weak because he knew what the answer would be. "Serve him right. Throw him too. Just turn the whole thing over." There was no protest from any of the six men. The only thing which was said was muttered by Lieutenant Byrd: "The old man hasn't. been getting enough sleep lately." Colonel Middleton went to the head of the mule and guided it to the side of the road. He directed the other five men to take positions on the left side of the cart and ' to lift together when he gave the signal. General Marvin roared: "Come on, get i~ over with. What a bunch of softies. Get it over with." Colonel Middleton gave the signal. The five men lifted. In his dream, Errante. rose up above the nine-foot fish and soared off into space. The sensation was extremely pleasant.

HOLLYWOOD of connoisseurs A COMMITTEE in chic headed by Lady 1\lendl HELP WANTED-MEN, recently named Gene Tierney the best dressed girl in moviedom. Just prior to that a national magazine listed Gene among the top four beauties of the screen, the others being Hedy Lamarr, Ingrid Bergman, and Linda Darnell.

Take It From Me Since nobody has gotten around to awarding Gene the medal for brains-such evidently not being included in obvious star assets-let me be the one to name her one of the most nimble minds in one of the steadiest little heads ever crowned by laurels. Designers love to create bizarre and extravagant whimsies to emphasize her intriguing face and rhythmic design. But in her private life and tastes Gene is conservative to a degree. Wears little or no makeup, and her shining brown hair is the precise shade nature gave her. So, because 5he's young, superlovely, mother of a 15-month-old daughter, Daria, and a happy wife, Gene's fans have come to think of her as a sort of high priest· ess of the modern theme. A girl of tomorrow. Nothing is farther from the truth. "Hedda," she said, "sometimes I really think our fans believe we live in a sort of crystal and plastic dream world. But I'm not looking forward to jumping into a helicopter and landing on the studio root instead of driving down the canyon each morning with good old Butch my police dog, on the front seat be-' side me. And, aside from the fact in personal tastes, I'm really not looking forward to the day when television, all-out air transport, and chores done by robots in solar houses will be a reality. Think how much charm it will take from living Besides, few of the young things of today realize it will take years and years to develop such living.

She herself was in line for the British succession as the great-granddaughter of Mary, Queen of Scots. \v11en her death, in 1714, prevented fulfillment of the act of parliament by which she would have b~n offered the crown, her son, as George I, became the first of the Hannovcrian dynasty to rule England. Besides the Hannoverian and Br1tish lines, Sophia was associated with the royal house uf Prussia by the marriage of her daughter, Sophia Charlotte, to Frederick I, first king of Prussia. Her granddaughter, Sophia Dorothea, married Frederick William I of Prussia, and became mother of Frederick the Great. In Great Britain, although the Hannover blood relationship remained, the male succession of the house was broken when Victoria came to the throne and married AI· bert, of the German state of SaxeCoburg and Gotha. During the First World war, George V relinquished nil German titles. The name of the ruling house was then abandoned for that of Windsor. t~ttllefieu/J of f!JJau«»t, fh(H) flrna, /!Ja;~utffa, /l'a/ev;u1, Aaclten, $ad"Of!1W, and all tne lloo£1tJ f!llrxt~l k 'ti"tl~Y'!J u ,'l_e ntile61oite6 fm tlw nd nt ~.

It is obvious your personal shaee must be greatest of any of the war loans. And yet it may be no higher than or even less than the combined amount yeu invested in bonds in the 4th and 5th War Loans. Why should you continue to put every dollar above the cost of the necessities o.f living into extra bonds? 1.

The Inland sea winds for 260 miles in a chain of six small, shallow lakes, or nadas, connected by na~row straits. Varying little in size, tlle nadas average 40 miles in length by 20 miles in width. White sands, green pines, palisade shores and a thousand islands give them beauty renQwned. If their basins were to be pushed up 100 feet, they would largely become ash and laval hill country like surrounding land. Connecting this Inland sea with open ocean are three narrow straits, each fortified and easily defended against sea-level approach because their combined width is no more than that of the mouth of Delaware bay. 1 FOR WOMEN WHO DOUCHE Many Doctors today r ecommend the use of douches for women troubled with discharge ( "the whites"), offending odor, and minor irritation -for women who want to be and feel refreshingly clean.

OKINAWA.-One of the most miserable damn nights out of hundreds of miserable nights I have spent in this war was spent out here. Bird Dog Clayton, and Gross and I, turned into our sacks just after dark. So did everybody else who wasn't on guard. It was too early to go to sleep, so we just lay there in the dark and talked. You could hear voices faintly all over the hillside. We didn't take off our clothes, of course; nobody does in the field. I did take off my boots but Bird Dog and Gross left theirs on for they had to stand watch on the field telephones from 1 till2 a. m. The three of us lay jammed up against each other, with Bird Dog in the middle. We smoked one cigarette after another. We didn't have to hide them under the blanket for we were in a protected position where a cigarette couldn't be seen very far.

I Women have done an outstanding job in this war, and nowh.ere have their efforts been more Important than in helping with the farm harvest. Until complete victory is won, there must be no letup on the home front. In this critical year of the war, the high rate o.f food production must be contmued.

Fritz, Gen2 era] Delivery, German Empire. I The answer is for town and city people-especially women and youth -to step into the breach, as they have done for the past three years. Farm people themselves are working harder and longer hours than ever before. But they need extra helpers, especially during the harvest season. That group of women doing emergency wartime farm work comprise the Women's Land army. Their patriotic efforts have saved farm crops in thousands of cases. The Women's Land army is a movement rather than an organization. It is mainly a seasonal army. In each state, it is under the direction of the state extension service, with headquarters at the state agricultural college. Most states have a Women's Land army supervisor who works closely with the county agricultural agents and their farm labor assistants. In most localities, the county agent administers the emergency farm labor program ... recruiting and placing workers on farms.

Her / uties include milking, cleaning the barn, and caring for the calves. own jobs. These women received prevailing farm wages for the amount and type of work done . Besides these a great many farm women worked on their own and neighboring farms. Who Are WLA Workers? All women who help in the wartime production of food, feed, or fiber are a part of the Women's Land army. Women from farms, cities and towns . . . farm women who work longer hours than ever before . . . women from offices, factories and stores . . . women whose husbands are over~cas ... housewives, college girls and teachers .... They are women of all ages who spend all summer, all year, or only a few hours, a week end or a vacation period- helping bring through the farm crops our country must have. Nnrth, south, east and west, women do all kinds of farm work. Singly and in groups, they pick beans, tomatoes and other vegetables. They detassel corn, shock grain, pick potatoes , pick and pack berries, apple ~. peaches, grapes, other fruits ar.lf nuts. They work in cotton, grain, tobacco and flax; drive tractors, farm trucks and combines; milk the cows and care fQr poultry flocks. In brief, as and where needed, women help plant, cultivate, and bas·vest the food and fiber crops and eare for the livestock- all so necessary in the war effort. Farm wives and daughters-hundreds of thousands of them-do a magnificent job, helping with haying, milking, feeding livestock. They handle just about every farm task, 50% More for your MoneyI I Women's underlying motive for doing farm work is, for the most part, patriotism-a deep desire to help . . . to have a part in feeding our ;;oldiers and our allies-and an intense conviction that no food should go to waste. As a 60-year-old woman said, after picking 3 tons of beans, "I'm glad to do it . . . you see, I have a son in the air corps." Of women who do farm work, by far the greatest number live at home and work by the day, or part-time, on farms nearby. Spend Vacations on Farms. Some women, especially college girls, teachers and business women, spend part of their vacation time in labor supply camps, working on surrounding farms. For one week, two weeks, or the entire summer, they cultivate and pick vegetables or harvest fruit. Many Smith college students, as a part of their college's summer plan of "work or study" formed groups which lived as one household in the farming area where they worked. Camps for women workers are operated in many states. Last year, New York state's WLA camps included about 3,000 New York City women and girls on their vacation time. Life in camp is not all work. Women find it interesting and broadening, with the companionship of women from many different places.

The fact is that the cur was a definite brePd of rtog, now extinct, but very common in the southern and western parts of the United States until· long after the Civil War. Curs were all-around dogs pnrticularly adapted to the needs of the early settlers, weighed from 50 to 60 pounds, were usually brindle or Yl'llow in color, with broad skulls, deep chests, short, strong backs and coarse but smooth coats. Accot·ding to Judy's "Dog Encyclopedia," England also had a dog which was known as cur. W11en dogs were first taxed in England in 1796, specific exemption was provided for sheepdogs, which the law described as "tailless dogs." As a result, many dogs had their breed changed quickly through the process of bobtailing (Perhaps this is where the confusion of cur with mongrel began.) To curtail originally meant to shorten the tail, but in time the word came to be applied to any act of shortening or being curt.

At the same time, the AA.A declared recent surveys showed that plantings of such important food and feed crops as corn, potatoes, dry beans, sweet potatoes, sugor beets and cane, peanuts and flaxseed also would drop below WFA goals. If 2,500,000 head short of the 55,500,000 goal as estimated, the spring pig crop would affect fall and winter supplies of pork, wh\le a 2,750.000 ·shortage in the 37,000,000 gonl of fall production would be felt in the summer of 1946. To increase pig breeding, both congressional committees and the AAA recommended a boost in the present support price from the $13.00 per hundredwdght level.

Sergeant Borth, an M.P., was In charge of security. The MaJor aet out at once to win the confi· dence of the citizens and promised to replace the town bell which the Ger· mana bad taken. General ~Jarvin, chief of American forces In that section, waa delayed at the outskirts of Adano, by a c:art driven by Errante oaetano. The Gener3l ordered the cart thrown orr the road and thl' mole shot. Be then ordered Major Joppolo to see that aU carts were kept out of the city In the future. The orders were Issued against tbe wlsbea and better Judgment of the MaJor. CHAPTER VII Erba, like the town, had run dry. He turned to his friends. One of them suid: "Erba, the proclamation, the matter of being clean." Erba said: "Oh yes, the proclamation. In one proclamation, Mister Major, I forget the number of the proclamation, there are so many, does the number matter, Mister Major?" "No, Erba. I am sorry, there are too many proclamations." And the Major turned to Erba's friends, who were a little more intelligent and would understand. "That is the fault of the authorities. I did not wish to post so many proclamations. That is not my fault. I am sorry. The number does not matter, Erba." Erba said: "The number does not matter. The proclamation says it is necessary to be clean. It says the people must be clean with water, and even the streets must be clean. Our streets, which have been the same since the time of-who was it the time of, Afronti?" A!ronti roared: "Since the time of · Pietro of Aragona and of Roberto King of N a pies." Erba said: "The streets have been the same. Now the proclamation speaks of being clean with water. 'The I e is much sameness which has a ·cumulated on the streets since the time of those men of whom Afronti speaks. This being clean 1akes much water. My cart is on the other side of the bridge, Mister Major." Major J oppolo said: "The cleanliness is very important, Erba. Let us make Adana the cleanest town in the whole province of Vicinamare." Erba caught the challenge. His eye brightened. "We will do this thing, even if the sameness has piled up since the time of Jesus, Mister Major." Then his eye went dull again. "But my cart is on the other side of the bridge. You have said it may not pass." The Major said: "Let the next -one speak. You. Your name." And he pointed at the third man with his pen. Erba said: "Thank you 1 Mister Major." The third man jumped up. He was quite fat but comparatively handsome. His hair was plastered down with something off the axle of his cart, and his black coat was the newest looking of the four. "Basile Giovanni, Mister Major," he said. "You wish?" Basile spoke gravely and slowly. "Mister Major," he said, "the worst .()f all the things about the carts is -the food. You can see, Mister Major"-and he ran his hands down ·over the size of his belly-"that I am a man who can speak of food with understanding. This matter of th~ carts does not hurt me. I am like a man with money in the bank, I have something to draw on in hard times. But there are others in Adano who are not so lucky. Gali·()10 Bartolomeo is so thin that you can count the several teeth of his mouth even when his lips are closed. The nine children of Raffaela who is the wife of Manette have big bellies, but their bellies are big only with the gas of hunger. Shall I name others who are very thin?" The Major said: "No, go on." Basile said: ''I am the one to tell you about the food and the carts. You have not seen my cart, have you, Mister Major?" "I may have. I have seen many of them." And then, with great craft, Basile said: "There is nothing in all the proclamation's , even though it takes you a week to read them, which says that the Americans came to Adano in order to make people die of hunger. And there is nothing in all the proclamations which refers to such things as the dead mule of Errante Gaetano. Why then do we have this thing of the carts?" The Major reached for the field telephone, cranked the handle and said: "Give me Rowboat Blue Forward." . While he waited for an answer, the Major said to Basile gruffly: "Sit down. "Hello. This Rowboat Blue Forward'? Captain Purvis, please . . . . "Purvis? Joppolo. Listen. . . . "No, now this is serious, Purvis. ·This thing about the carts. I've made up my mind. By one sentence General Marvin destroyed the work of nine days in this town. I know it may mean a court martial, but I've decided to countermand his order. What? . . . "I know I'm taking a chance, but I've got to do it. We can't let these people starve. . . . "I have to do it, Purvis. This town is dying. No food can get into the town if the carts don't come. The town depends on the carts for water: there isn't any running water here, you know that. The people can't go out into the fields to work in the morning. Taking carts away from this town is like taking automobiles away from a country town in the States. You just can't do it all at once. People will die. I'm not here to kill people." Captain Purvis evidently put up an argument. Finally the Major said: "Purvis, I order you, on my authority, to start letting carts back into the town, beginning now. I take absolute and complete responsibility for countermanding General Marvin's order. . . . "Listen friend, it we never took chances around here, this place would go right on being a Fascism. All right, it's on my responsibility." The three cartmen sat through the telephone conversation not comprehending. To judge by their faces they seemed to think that Major Joppolo was devising some punishment for them. They had the habit of fear, and they thought that this man of authority would of course be exactly like the men of authority they had known for so long. Major Joppolo hung up. He turned to the three cartmen and said: "You may bring your carts into the town." For a long moment they did not understand. Then they stood up and began shouting and waving their caps. "We thank you, we thank you and we kiss your hand," they roared. "Oh, Mister Major, there has never been a thing like this," the fat one named Basile shouted, "that the New Vegetables Should Be Kept Ever- Growing :;.w;~.h~.:0';'1[lueH:u~ug~~;oh~', II 0LLYW 00D QNE of the pdncipo\ objective• of ~sd lif~·H" 8 ~~~t~::bl;:rd~r~~g~~u~upf~~ Barbecue Table and Benches That Match EATINCZ out of doors is fun no matter whether it is your own back yard, summer camp, porch or terrace.

Probably their oldest and most familiar useful form is the compass needle. According to l£'gend, the Chinese Emperor Hoang-Ti used a magnet in this form to guide his chariot in 2600 B. C. From this simple beginning permanent magnets have been developed to such an extent that, during World War II, their use has enabled our fighting men to replace bulky, heavy equipment with portable models of n:duced s ize and weight; has made possible hundreds of devices for airplanes, and has also permitted an increase in the sensitivity of many measuring and electrical communication instruments.

OKINAWA.-One of the most miserable damn nights out of hundreds of miserable nights I have spent in this war was spent out here. Bird Dog Clayton, and Gross and I, turned into our sacks just after dark. So did everybody else who wasn't on guard. It was too early to go to sleep, so we just lay there in the dark and talked. You could hear voices faintly all over the hillside. We didn't take off our clothes, of course; nobody does in the field. I did take off my boots but Bird Dog and Gross left theirs on for they had to stand watch on the field telephones from 1 till2 a. m. The three of us lay jammed up against each other, with Bird Dog in the middle. We smoked one cigarette after another. We didn't have to hide them under the blanket for we were in a protected position where a cigarette couldn't be seen very far.

I Women have done an outstanding job in this war, and nowh.ere have their efforts been more Important than in helping with the farm harvest. Until complete victory is won, there must be no letup on the home front. In this critical year of the war, the high rate o.f food production must be contmued. At the same time, the farm labor sho~tage will be even more seri-~ ous m many areas. -·- WILL SWAP: Mein Kampf in all sizes and colors for headache powders, spirits of ammonia, ham sandwich or what have you. Fritz, Gen2 era] Delivery, German Empire. I The answer is for town and city people-especially women and youth -to step into the breach, as they have done for the past three years. Farm people themselves are working harder and longer hours than ever before. But they need extra helpers, especially during the harvest season. That group of women doing emergency wartime farm work comprise the Women's Land army. Their patriotic efforts have saved farm crops in thousands of cases. The Women's Land army is a movement rather than an organization. It is mainly a seasonal army. In each state, it is under the direction of the state extension service, with headquarters at the state agricultural college. Most states have a Women's Land army supervisor who works closely with the county agricultural agents and their farm labor assistants. In most localities, the county agent administers the emergency farm labor program ... recruiting and placing workers on farms.

Her / uties include milking, cleaning the barn, and caring for the calves. own jobs. These women received prevailing farm wages for the amount and type of work done . Besides these a great many farm women worked on their own and neighboring farms. Who Are WLA Workers? All women who help in the wartime production of food, feed, or fiber are a part of the Women's Land army. Women from farms, cities and towns . . . farm women who work longer hours than ever before . . . women from offices, factories and stores . . . women whose husbands are over~cas ... housewives, college girls and teachers .... They are women of all ages who spend all summer, all year, or only a few hours, a week end or a vacation period- helping bring through the farm crops our country must have. Nnrth, south, east and west, women do all kinds of farm work. Singly and in groups, they pick beans, tomatoes and other vegetables. They detassel corn, shock grain, pick potatoes , pick and pack berries, apple ~. peaches, grapes, other fruits ar.lf nuts. They work in cotton, grain, tobacco and flax; drive tractors, farm trucks and combines; milk the cows and care fQr poultry flocks. In brief, as and where needed, women help plant, cultivate, and bas·vest the food and fiber crops and eare for the livestock- all so necessary in the war effort. Farm wives and daughters-hundreds of thousands of them-do a magnificent job, helping with haying, milking, feeding livestock. They handle just about every farm task, 50% More for your MoneyI I Women's underlying motive for doing farm work is, for the most part, patriotism-a deep desire to help . . . to have a part in feeding our ;;oldiers and our allies-and an intense conviction that no food should go to waste. As a 60-year-old woman said, after picking 3 tons of beans, "I'm glad to do it . . . you see, I have a son in the air corps." Of women who do farm work, by far the greatest number live at home and work by the day, or part-time, on farms nearby. Spend Vacations on Farms. Some women, especially college girls, teachers and business women, spend part of their vacation time in labor supply camps, working on surrounding farms. For one week, two weeks, or the entire summer, they cultivate and pick vegetables or harvest fruit. Many Smith college students, as a part of their college's summer plan of "work or study" formed groups which lived as one household in the farming area where they worked. Camps for women workers are operated in many states. Last year, New York state's WLA camps included about 3,000 New York City women and girls on their vacation time. Life in camp is not all work.

The fact is that the cur was a definite brePd of rtog, now extinct, but very common in the southern and western parts of the United States until· long after the Civil War. Curs were all-around dogs pnrticularly adapted to the needs of the early settlers, weighed from 50 to 60 pounds, were usually brindle or Yl'llow in color, with broad skulls, deep chests, short, strong backs and coarse but smooth coats. Accot·ding to Judy's "Dog Encyclopedia," England also had a dog which was known as cur. W11en dogs were first taxed in England in 1796, specific exemption was provided for sheepdogs, which the law described as "tailless dogs." As a result, many dogs had their breed changed quickly through the process of bobtailing (Perhaps this is where the confusion of cur with mongrel began.) To curtail originally meant to shorten the tail, but in time the word came to be applied to any act of shortening or being curt.

CLASSIF.IED Below Expectations I DEPARTMENT Hope for marked improvement in the meat situation by next fall and through 1946 was dampened by the Agricultural Adjustment administration's report that this year's estimated pig crops of 87,200,000 head would fall about 5,300,000 below War Food administration goals and result in a loss of eight pounds of pork per person. At the same time, the AA.A declared recent surveys showed that plantings of such important food and feed crops as corn, potatoes, dry beans, sweet potatoes, sugor beets and cane, peanuts and flaxseed also would drop below WFA goals. If 2,500,000 head short of the 55,500,000 goal as estimated, the spring pig crop would affect fall and winter supplies of pork, wh\le a 2,750.000 ·shortage in the 37,000,000 gonl of fall production would be felt in the summer of 1946. To increase pig breeding, both congressional committees and the AAA recommended a boost in the present support price from the $13.00 per hundredwdght level.

Sergeant Borth, an M.P., was In charge of security. The MaJor aet out at once to win the confi· dence of the citizens and promised to replace the town bell which the Ger· mana bad taken. General ~Jarvin, chief of American forces In that section, waa delayed at the outskirts of Adano, by a c:art driven by Errante oaetano. The Gener3l ordered the cart thrown orr the road and thl' mole shot. Be then ordered Major Joppolo to see that aU carts were kept out of the city In the future. The orders were Issued against tbe wlsbea and better Judgment of the MaJor. CHAPTER VII Erba, like the town, had run dry. He turned to his friends. One of them suid: "Erba, the proclamation, the matter of being clean." Erba said: "Oh yes, the proclamation. In one proclamation, Mister Major, I forget the number of the proclamation, there are so many, does the number matter, Mister Major?" "No, Erba. I am sorry, there are too many proclamations." And the Major turned to Erba's friends, who were a little more intelligent and would understand. "That is the fault of the authorities. I did not wish to post so many proclamations. That is not my fault. I am sorry. The number does not matter, Erba." Erba said: "The number does not matter. The proclamation says it is necessary to be clean. It says the people must be clean with water, and even the streets must be clean. Our streets, which have been the same since the time of-who was it the time of, Afronti?" A!ronti roared: "Since the time of · Pietro of Aragona and of Roberto King of N a pies." Erba said: "The streets have been the same. Now the proclamation speaks of being clean with water. 'The I e is much sameness which has a ·cumulated on the streets since the time of those men of whom Afronti speaks. This being clean 1akes much water. My cart is on the other side of the bridge, Mister Major." Major J oppolo said: "The cleanliness is very important, Erba. Let us make Adana the cleanest town in the whole province of Vicinamare." Erba caught the challenge. His eye brightened. "We will do this thing, even if the sameness has piled up since the time of Jesus, Mister Major." Then his eye went dull again. "But my cart is on the other side of the bridge. You have said it may not pass." The Major said: "Let the next -one speak. You. Your name." And he pointed at the third man with his pen. Erba said: "Thank you 1 Mister Major." The third man jumped up. He was quite fat but comparatively handsome. His hair was plastered down with something off the axle of his cart, and his black coat was the newest looking of the four. "Basile Giovanni, Mister Major," he said. "You wish?" Basile spoke gravely and slowly. "Mister Major," he said, "the worst .()f all the things about the carts is -the food. You can see, Mister Major"-and he ran his hands down ·over the size of his belly-"that I am a man who can speak of food with understanding. This matter of th~ carts does not hurt me. I am like a man with money in the bank, I have something to draw on in hard times. But there are others in Adano who are not so lucky. Gali·()10 Bartolomeo is so thin that you can count the several teeth of his mouth even when his lips are closed. The nine children of Raffaela who is the wife of Manette have big bellies, but their bellies are big only with the gas of hunger. Shall I name others who are very thin?" The Major said: "No, go on." Basile said: ''I am the one to tell you about the food and the carts. You have not seen my cart, have you, Mister Major?" "I may have. I have seen many of them." And then, with great craft, Basile said: "There is nothing in all the proclamation's , even though it takes you a week to read them, which says that the Americans came to Adano in order to make people die of hunger. And there is nothing in all the proclamations which refers to such things as the dead mule of Errante Gaetano. Why then do we have this thing of the carts?" The Major reached for the field telephone, cranked the handle and said: "Give me Rowboat Blue Forward." . While he waited for an answer, the Major said to Basile gruffly: "Sit down. "Hello. This Rowboat Blue Forward'? Captain Purvis, please . . . . "Purvis? Joppolo. Listen. . . . "No, now this is serious, Purvis. ·This thing about the carts. I've made up my mind. By one sentence General Marvin destroyed the work of nine days in this town. I know it may mean a court martial, but I've decided to countermand his order. What? . . . "I know I'm taking a chance, but I've got to do it. We can't let these people starve. . . . "I have to do it, Purvis. This town is dying. No food can get into the town if the carts don't come. The town depends on the carts for water: there isn't any running water here, you know that. The people can't go out into the fields to work in the morning. Taking carts away from this town is like taking automobiles away from a country town in the States. You just can't do it all at once. People will die. I'm not here to kill people." Captain Purvis evidently put up an argument. Finally the Major said: "Purvis, I order you, on my authority, to start letting carts back into the town, beginning now. I take absolute and complete responsibility for countermanding General Marvin's order. . . . "Listen friend, it we never took chances around here, this place would go right on being a Fascism. All right, it's on my responsibility." The three cartmen sat through the telephone conversation not comprehending. To judge by their faces they seemed to think that Major Joppolo was devising some punishment for them. They had the habit of fear, and they thought that this man of authority would of course be exactly like the men of authority they had known for so long. Major Joppolo hung up. He turned to the three cartmen and said: "You may bring your carts into the town." For a long moment they did not understand. Then they stood up and began shouting and waving their caps. "We thank you, we thank you and we kiss your hand," they roared. "Oh, Mister Major, there has never been a thing like this," the fat one named Basile shouted, "that the New Vegetables Should Be Kept Ever- Growing :;.w;~.h~.:0';'1[lueH:u~ug~~;oh~', II 0LLYW 00D QNE of the pdncipo\ objective• of ~sd lif~·H" 8 ~~~t~::bl;:rd~r~~g~~u~upf~~ Barbecue Table and Benches That Match EATINCZ out of doors is fun no matter whether it is your own back yard, summer camp, porch or terrace.

Probably their oldest and most familiar useful form is the compass needle. According to l£'gend, the Chinese Emperor Hoang-Ti used a magnet in this form to guide his chariot in 2600 B. C. From this simple beginning permanent magnets have been developed to such an extent that, during World War II, their use has enabled our fighting men to replace bulky, heavy equipment with portable models of n:duced s ize and weight; has made possible hundreds of devices for airplanes, and has also permitted an increase in the sensitivity of many measuring and electrical communication instruments.

Homemakers are writing in and asking for recipes which will give their families- "just something to satisfy the sweet tooth" -but that something must be sugar-saving. Now that jellies are rationed you may have to use what sugar you can get for putting up those juices you canned during summer for jelly -and that means there will be less sugar than before left for baking uses , Sugar substitutes can be utilized not only in cakes and cookies but desserts and icings. Many cake recipes, too, can be made with less sugar than they call for. Fruits-in-season now include cranberries which are perfectly delicious in this steamed pudding: • Steamed Cranberry Pudding.

''Food will win the war," might log. lcally be amended to "Plant food will win the war," since our nation's fertilizer supply has ta!{en such an important role in agricultural pro· duction, according to a statement made public by the Middle West Soil Improvement Committee. "Farmers, as well as food production experts, realize that the use of fertilizer is one of the most effective means of obtaining an increased agricultural output to meet the great war needll of the present," says the statement. "The acreage available for food production is limitP.d. Farm help is so short as to make another vital hazard. And, finally, present machinery can handle only a given number of acres. I "High yields per acre are thus necessary to obtain the grpatest posISible output from the land, the available labor and the machinery that is usable. This increased production can be aided by equitable distribu· tion of available plant food re: sources where they will make the greatest contribution to the food growing campaign. Farmers are ·accepting their responsibility for the success of such a program. In fact :they are taking on the extra load with cheerfulness and forethought. I "As matters now stand, the fertilizer supply is limited by lack of certain mineral elements, as some scarcities already exist in the 1 !,amounts of potash and superphosphate available.

"Farmers can do their part by listing their needs early, placing their orders promptly, taking shipments of their plant food well in advance of the crop season, and stor· lng the fertilizer on their own farms until it is needed for use on the soil.·· Cellar Storagt• No doubt cellar stor41ge is the more convenient way to kPPp vt>getables. Too often, ho,wever, the temperature of the room is too hi<~'h especially in the fall and the begtn~ ning of the winter. A cellar in which the average temperatufe cannot" be kept below 50 degrees is bound to cause much spoilage of stored vegetables. Proper ventilation will help to lower the temperature of a cellar in the fall. Keep the cellar windows open on cool nights and clo~e them during warm days. If this is don<' consistently through Octr ber, it will do much to cool the cellar walls.

McNutt said to the A. F. L. in Boston, "It is not beyond the realm of possibility that 1 labor and management can . . . take new and more stringent steps under their own steam." What it takes to speed up production when working with free American people is not a stringent step, if that means compulsion. •Last August this column carried an account of prompt and amazin, production gains achieved by the Howard Radio Company of Ch ca&o, through incentive wage payments. Howard makes signal equipment for the Army. The management instituted an incentive plan by consent of the War Labor Board.

There is a proven be tt r way that does not stmk of lhtlc.r. m. Single Objective. In a recent message to C'ongrC'ss, President Roosevelt said, with e pc.cial reference to airplane prodt:ction: "A high rate of inc rca e lllli t be maintained . . . and that means constant stepping up of our production at home here." And thcrf"s no disputing the correctness of t 1e President's analysis. Even thP Germans say it is our air force that enables American troops to advance against superior numbers. Planes and more planes are vital to victory. Surely it is fair to assume that what the war effort needs is what the President asked for: more production, not more men on the government's payroll. After all, thPre is a difference. Interpreting the President's plea for more planPs as a signal to put U. S. civilians in lockstep is, to say the least, gettmg off ahead of the starter's gun in a race for dictatorship. The American Way. A few weeks ago I visited the Beech Aircraft Corporation's plant in Wichita, Kan., where workc>rs and owners together had launched a plan to improve production and d v •loped it in one year to a dlgree of efficiency that increased factory output 325 percent. They found ways to turn out more than four hmes as much as formerly. It required no additional help and no bullying. Common sense nnd p:1trioti ,m did the trick. The vehicle was a rational incentive plan that divided profits 50-50 between the employees and the corporation on all increased business. Each worker's effective in· come accordingly was raised more than 50 percent in 12 months. Similar things have been done in other war production plants and might be done in many more. The idea is truly American in character. It is tried and effective. • The Hitler Idea Der Fuehrer works forced labor. He has 21h times as much population to draw from as we have, and regularly gets less done. For an example, consider steel, ever needful in w<Jr. All the warr,ng coun.. tries are producing every ton of it they can. Germany, with 300 million people, is al.>le to prouuce 50 million tons a year; the Umted 1 States, with 120 million pl ople, pro- I duces 90 million tons. Slaves never do their best.

Less than one-tenth of its area has been under cultivation. It normally exported olives cheese c~ttle, . hides, bitumen, copper and 011. 01l production increased from 10,000 to 619,000 barrels a year ir. three years, lifting Albania to sixth among European nations in crude oil production. The Italians built a 45-mile pipeline from Petrolia to Valona. Several district tribes comprise the ~lbanian· "nation." Separatr>d by !ugh mountains, these tribes arc in . orne instances more foreign to each other than to peoples living across international borders. Con· stant feuding is a tradition of high land life. Great strides toward modernization have been made in recent years. Albania has mineral wealth, large forests, ample water power and other natural resources to support in· dustrial growth.

The drive get.& started,. but CLAY MANNING, foreman, and ED SPLANN, a new hand, rebel at Lew•a orders. CHAPTER VI From the point he saw Steve and Clay and Splann gather far behind him. They rode like that for most ot the afternoon. The two white-topped wagons had vanished early northward over a swell of ground. It was almost dark when he saw Owl-Head's plume of smoke. He waved Joe Wheat up to take his place. To Quarternight he said, "I'm going on." There was something he wanted to look at before the longhorns' hoofs trampled out all sign. His knowledge that Cross T horses had been run up Crazy Woman Creek to these plains had gnawed inside of him, its puzzle only half clear. Now a deep notch in the plain's edge to the east marked the entrance to Crazy Woman. While off on his left was the tank, a natural hollow covering several acres. It still held enough muddy water, he saw, from the winter's rain, and brougl\t himself to a sudden stop next moment. It was clear enough in his mind that the Indian Supply herd had needed horses and had got them by trading Cross T stock via the New Mexico exchange. The men who had caught him near Crazy Woman were not only rustlers but part of the Indian Supply crew. Yet what still had no answer was Clay Manning's part in that deal. Approaching camp where the two wagons had stopped beside the tank's rim, he saw the charred embers of other camps near the cook's fire. Owl-Head rose from stirring something in a Dutch oven and jerked a thumb toward them. "What do you make of that?" He didn't say. No use spreading what he knew. But Moonlight Bailey, driving ahead of the longhorns with his hor,se herd, had cut that trail from Crazy Woman. He was riding in between the wagons now, a small brown man with a bullfrog voice. "By Judas, Lew!" he burst out, "I know where our saddle stock went!'' "All right. Keep it to yourself." "Keep it!" Moonlight's round, simple face turned dusty red. "Tom's ribbed me plenty for losin' horses. If I hadn't listened to Clay, him tellin' me there was no use. lookin'-'' "Moonlight," he said, "shut up I" He had seen the canvas of Joy's wagon open. "Now you mind!" Then he heard her voice behind him. "Lew, come here." He wheeled his horse around. She was sitting on the blankets of her bed, her hat off and her dark hair falhng loose. "What was Moonlight saying?" "Nothing," he said. "Your wrangler sleeps out in the moon too much. He sees things." "No. It was about the horses and I've been thinking it wasn't possible for twenty or thirty head to vanish the way they did. What has Moonlight found?" He didn't want to worry her with 'mysteries, and yet he didn't want this discovery to get back to Clay Manning either. He said, "That's right, it was about the horses. Moonlight thinks he has the answer. I don't think he has. But let it go for now, will you? Don't talk." She nodded and smiled a little. "I learned to keep things to myself, Lew, long ago. I've had such a good example from you men." He grinned, and yet, riding from her, he hated that any doubt and suspicion should begin to trouble her so early on the trail. Long before Lew felt an uneasiness himself the cattle were smelling something in the air. He had marked six days in his logbook, estimating one hundred miles, when they came that late afternoon to the first stream bed on the plains. Pointing the herd into it, he searched on north for the double mountain landmark and saw only the unbroken horizon hard and sharp against the sky. There was no warning. One moment all the camp made its picture clear before his eyes. Tom Arnold stood with a tin cup waiting for his coffee. Joy and s~~ve were sittmg on the tongue of her wagon in one of their rare times together. Three dim-shaped riders were coming in for their meal. The next instant an unseen hand struck the campfire, scattering its red coals outward for a hundred feet. The wagon canvases bellied and slapped the bows like pistol shots. The stars were suddenly gone, and the wind's full force with its choking dust was something that a man nad to lean into strongly. No one needed his yelled order. Men were already running in the pitch dark toward their horse~. Yet no sound broke the almost silent thrust of the wind. Here on the flat plain, with nothing to strike against, it made only a thin hiss through the short grass. Then the ragged black pool was ahead of him. He could see the way they had swung north now in the direction the wind was blowing and knew they were held from a run so far because no leader had started it off. Their tight fear had to be broken. He understood the slim chance a man would have caught in that mass it it jumped suddenly into its blind stampede. But there was no other way; he rode directly in among the hard, unyielding bodies. The familiarity of a horseman, his voice lifted in a wordless crooning, seemed to ease their dumb brains. They began to move aside. They brought their heads down. He crowded on, weaving toward the middle. There were other riders around him in the dusty dark. Ghost shapes appeared higher than the ridgepole backs and vanished. Until after midnight he had a certain hope. These storms came up with the suddenness of a hurricane, then often ended in a short time as abruptly as they had come. But at midnight the wind was still rising with a harder thrust. It would not end soon. By three it was blowing with a strength that made his horse unste~dy. He knew the time by the strange unearthly light beginning to show a little of the herd for a distance that he could neither see nor guess. And above the rumble and clack of their walk the openmouthed groaning rose to a sharper key that turned a man's nerves raw. He could no longer locate his rock piles; only a slim chance would let him blunder onto the double butte. Each hour he could feel himself being pressed farther into the desert of the Staked Plain, beyond the last water that he knew. Dragging off his saddle and throwing it onto the fresh horse that Jim Hope brought, he spied two masked figures butting into the wind. Moving toward them, he recognized Clay Manning and Tom Arnold. They wter.• shouting together. He wanted a moment's talk, somehow the reassurance of other men's words. Bending beside them he yelled, "We've sure hit a bad one!" It was Clay next to him. His head turned. The violence of his answer bulged the handkerchief from his mouth. "A hell of a time to think of that! How you going to get us out of this?" Tight nerves snapped. "Fly out! You got a better way?" "Did have," Clay flung back. "It was a fool move at the start!" "Lew?" Tom Arnold thrust himself in front of them. He looked shrunken and dried out. "You got any idea where we are?" He couldn't have; they knew that. He shook his head and started to say, "All we can do-" A lash of the old man's temper cut him off. "Then, by God, I'm damned if I know what you're here for! This was no way to come!" He had no answer; you didn't fight Tom Arnold's temper. It would cool. And he understood the bitterness of what the man could lose. But at the same time he saw the quick ven· geance in Clay Manning's blood-shot eyr:s. He had got in his word with Delos Wheeler Lovelace Consolidated THE TWITCHELL CHILDDISARI\IAMENT PLAN Elmer Twitchell came out today with a proposal for a Disarmament Conference to precede the end of the war. "I want it at once in the interest of national safety," he declared. It was quite startling until Mr. Twitchell explained that it would apply to children only. -·- "I am for the disarmament of kiddies under the age of eight," he said. "The infants are swarming all over the premises heeled to the teeth, blood in their eyes and disposed to give and take no quarter. -·- "Little Willie, aged seven, sleeps with a tommy-gun, comes to breakfast with a mortar and spends all his spare time doing commando work.

They began to move how in a sohd way, too tired to stand any longer, too restless to lie down. Riding back in the first dusty brown light of dawn, he saw that Moonlight Bailey had already met one danger by leading four mares on picket ropes. Most of the horses were crowding up close. They would not desert their ladies. Jim Hop~ was riding behind them to catch any drift. From the campfire, loading up his kegs for an early start, Owl-Head yelled, "Breakfast, Lew? Got some beans with plenty of sand!" He shook his head and rode on to where Joy's mules were harnessed. She was up on the wagon seat with a handkerchief across her nose and mouth, ready to drive. He stepped down and tied the mules' halter ropes to the tail gate of the chuck wagon. He had to shout above the slapping rattle of canvas. "Get inside!" Only the blinking squint of her eyes showed over the handkerchief edge. Her voice reached him stubbornly. "This is my job!" He moved back to her, head down and leaning against the wind. "You want to go blind?" Sliding his arms under her legs and behind her back, he carried ;·.er to the rear end and put her in on the wagon bed. He grinned, feeling the dust dry in his mouth. "You won't miss anything. Don't stick your head out today." She pulled the handkerchief down, squinting up at his red-rimmed, burning eyes. "Have you had any sleep at all?" "Sure," he said, "plenty." It was like trying to talk inside of a drum. Passing the cook again, he shouted, "Keep up close!" A man could lose himself in this smother if he ever missed the longhorns' trail. In the short time since dawn the herd had drifted more than a mile. He followed their trampled swath and came to the ragged edge of drags. Only a few of their bony rumps showed; all others on either side and up toward the lead were blotted out by the brown dust. It was not a matter of driving the herd now, but of holding it back. They came on in a solid front, their great horns swinging from side to side as they crowded _a nd spread out I I Fea~ures.-WNU Release. NEW YORK.-In those days Detroit, Mich., was full of easy money.

Homemakers are writing in and asking for recipes which will give their families- "just something to satisfy the sweet tooth" -but that something must be sugar-saving. Now that jellies are rationed you may have to use what sugar you can get for putting up those juices you canned during summer for jelly -and that means there will be less sugar than before left for baking uses , Sugar substitutes can be utilized not only in cakes and cookies but desserts and icings. Many cake recipes, too, can be made with less sugar than they call for. Fruits-in-season now include cranberries which are perfectly delicious in this steamed pudding: • Steamed Cranberry Pudding. (Serves 4) t cups fresh cranberries 1% cups flour ~ teaspoon salt ~ teaspoon cinnamon ~ teaspoon cloves ~ teaspoon mace 2 teaspoons soda ¥.! cup hot water ~ cup molasses Mix flour, salt, spices and soda; cut cranberries in two and add to dry ingredients. Combine hot water and molasses; blend with first mixture. Transfer to greased pudding mold; cover and steam 2 1h hours. Unmold and serve with your favorite pudding sauce. Do chocolates satis fy the sweet tooth in your family? Here is a light, lovely dessert: Chocolate Putt Soume. (Serv1ls 6) ~ 7-ounce package semi-sweet chocolate 1 cup milk 3 tablespoons sugar Pinch of salt 1 tablespoon vanilla 3 eggs Melt chocolate with milk in top of "ouble boiler. Beat with egg beater until smooth. Add sugar, salt, vanilla and unbeaten eggs ; beat with egg beater 1 minute. Cover, and cook over boiling water 20 minutes without lifting cover. Remove from heat and serve immediately with cream. It is possible to make cakes without any sugar at all, but better results can be achieved if some sugar is used in the cake. Too many allsyrup ca kes have a coarse t exture to which we are unaccustomed after years of light, fine-grained cakes. H e re are suggestions which you can be proud to add to your wa rtime cookery collection: Lynn Says: Starve the Garbage Can! Precious vitamins lie right underneath the thin skin of carrots. Don't pare, just scrub the vegetable. The same is true of potatoes. Scrub well and cook with skins on, then eat skins and all. Young beets can be cooked as other greens. Season and serve. You'll be delighted. Tops of spring onions make wonde rfUl se asoning. Celery tops are grand for soups, salads. Coarse r parts of celery can be pureed for soup.

The warlords were in the inn sumptuously quartered, lolling in fine chairs in their stockinged feet, their muddy boots on the beds. The Dictators were there too. They had taken the whole first floor months ahead and were now bellowing orders to the servants. And they could be heard complaining that their patience was being exhausted. Greed was in the inn, sprawled across a great bed. Covetousness and Cupidity were swaggering about the hall, laughing coarsely. Hatred had taken over a double room and could be heard snarling at Envy and Intolerance, who claimed to have a prior right to the large chamber with' double windows. • • • And in the corridors of the first floor a great bully of a man slashing about with a sword, reviling his companions, and boasting of some book he had written about conquering all mankind and reducing those who did not agree with him to slavery. This man was called Conquest and he was demanding a great front suite where he could have more breathing space. And nowhere within the inn was there Love, Kindliness, Faith, Hope or Charity. • • • Nuw there were in the country humble people with no hate in their hearts, keeping the faith, watching over their own and affrighted by the horrors that were about them and by the drone of bombers that passed overhead blotting out the glory of the stars; and they were weat·y of ultimatums and threats and challenge and counter challenge, and sick of heart at the corruption of mind and spirit. • • • And behold an Angel of the Lord stood over them, and the brightnes:> of God shone round and said, "Feal' not : for behold, I bring you gooo\ tidings of great joy that shall be to all people: for this day is born to you a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord, in the city of David, and who is the Prince of Peace, the Deliverer of the afflicted and the Christ of love and tolerance. And this shall be a sign unto you: you shall find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes, and laid in a manger.'' And suddenly there was with the Angel a multitude of the heavenly army, praising God and saring, "Gl'lry to God in the highert, and on earth peace, good will toward m e n ." • • • And they camE: with has te and found the infant lying in th e manger. And the arrog ant within th e inn we re silenced; and the drone of the ships of destruction, sweeping overhea d, was no more, neithe r were there sounds of distant cannona ding. To their ears came only the breathing of the cattle and the first cries of the Christ Child. And they understood the words that had been spoken to them.

THE Army-Navy 'E' Awards Of Six Months' Duration After a manufacturing plant has held an Army-Navy "E" pennant for six months, the company's record is reviewed by a government awards board, says Collier's. If the plant has equaled or exceeded its previous six-months performance, a service star is added to the flag; if it has not maintained both quality and quantity through the fault of either the management or the employees, the flag is withdrawn and has to be earned over again. -BY WEARING YOUR PLAns EVERY DAY -HELD COMFORTABLY SNUG THIS WAY Face-lines ~~ag-wrinkles form-when 19lates remain unworn.

H. 679 Crete 4161 PROMPT BUYING OF PLANT FOOD IS KEY TO BIGGER '44 CROP CHICAGO.-The wartime slogan. ''Food will win the war," might log. lcally be amended to "Plant food will win the war," since our nation's fertilizer supply has ta!{en such an important role in agricultural pro· duction, according to a statement made public by the Middle West Soil Improvement Committee. "Farmers, as well as food production experts, realize that the use of fertilizer is one of the most effective means of obtaining an increased agricultural output to meet the great war needll of the present," says the statement. "The acreage available for food production is limitP.d. Farm help is so short as to make another vital hazard. And, finally, present machinery can handle only a given number of acres. I "High yields per acre are thus necessary to obtain the grpatest posISible output from the land, the available labor and the machinery that is usable. This increased production can be aided by equitable distribu· tion of available plant food re: sources where they will make the greatest contribution to the food growing campaign. Farmers are ·accepting their responsibility for the success of such a program. In fact :they are taking on the extra load with cheerfulness and forethought. I "As matters now stand, the fertilizer supply is limited by lack of certain mineral elements, as some scarcities already exist in the 1 !,amounts of potash and superphosphate available.

Fertilizer producers ~re do· ing their part by trying to turn all available raw goods into th(; prop· erly processed and mixed seasoned grades as rapidly as they r·an The:. further are distributing the pr'E pnrC'd materials in the most cfft•c ttve man ner and adjusting their productio:r schedules to a year-arot..nd rather than a seasonal basis-a practk~ which crowds factory storage spare beyond capacity. "Farmers can do their part by listing their needs early, placing their orders promptly, taking shipments of their plant food well in advance of the crop season, and stor· lng the fertilizer on their own farms until it is needed for use on the soil.·· Cellar Storagt• No doubt cellar stor41ge is the more convenient way to kPPp vt>getables. Too often, ho,wever, the temperature of the room is too hi<~'h especially in the fall and the begtn~ ning of the winter. A cellar in which the average temperatufe cannot" be kept below 50 degrees is bound to cause much spoilage of stored vegetables. Proper ventilation will help to lower the temperature of a cellar in the fall. Keep the cellar windows open on cool nights and clo~e them during warm days. If this is don<' consistently through Octr ber, it will do much to cool the cellar walls.

There is a proven be tt r way that does not stmk of lhtlc.r. m. Single Objective. In a recent message to C'ongrC'ss, President Roosevelt said, with e pc.cial reference to airplane prodt:ction: "A high rate of inc rca e lllli t be maintained . . . and that means constant stepping up of our production at home here." And thcrf"s no disputing the correctness of t 1e President's analysis. Even thP Germans say it is our air force that enables American troops to advance against superior numbers. Planes and more planes are vital to victory. Surely it is fair to assume that what the war effort needs is what the President asked for: more production, not more men on the government's payroll. After all, thPre is a difference. Interpreting the President's plea for more planPs as a signal to put U. S. civilians in lockstep is, to say the least, gettmg off ahead of the starter's gun in a race for dictatorship. The American Way. A few weeks ago I visited the Beech Aircraft Corporation's plant in Wichita, Kan., where workc>rs and owners together had launched a plan to improve production and d v •loped it in one year to a dlgree of efficiency that increased factory output 325 percent. They found ways to turn out more than four hmes as much as formerly. It required no additional help and no bullying. Common sense nnd p:1trioti ,m did the trick. The vehicle was a rational incentive plan that divided profits 50-50 between the employees and the corporation on all increased business. Each worker's effective in· come accordingly was raised more than 50 percent in 12 months. Similar things have been done in other war production plants and might be done in many more. The idea is truly American in character. It is tried and effective. • The Hitler Idea Der Fuehrer works forced labor. He has 21h times as much population to draw from as we have, and regularly gets less done. For an example, consider steel, ever needful in w<Jr. All the warr,ng coun.. tries are producing every ton of it they can. Germany, with 300 million people, is al.>le to prouuce 50 million tons a year; the Umted 1 States, with 120 million pl ople, pro- I duces 90 million tons. Slaves never do their best.

The drive get.& started,. but CLAY MANNING, foreman, and ED SPLANN, a new hand, rebel at Lew•a orders. CHAPTER VI From the point he saw Steve and Clay and Splann gather far behind him. They rode like that for most ot the afternoon. The two white-topped wagons had vanished early northward over a swell of ground. It was almost dark when he saw Owl-Head's plume of smoke. He waved Joe Wheat up to take his place. To Quarternight he said, "I'm going on." There was something he wanted to look at before the longhorns' hoofs trampled out all sign. His knowledge that Cross T horses had been run up Crazy Woman Creek to these plains had gnawed inside of him, its puzzle only half clear. Now a deep notch in the plain's edge to the east marked the entrance to Crazy Woman. While off on his left was the tank, a natural hollow covering several acres. It still held enough muddy water, he saw, from the winter's rain, and brougl\t himself to a sudden stop next moment. It was clear enough in his mind that the Indian Supply herd had needed horses and had got them by trading Cross T stock via the New Mexico exchange. The men who had caught him near Crazy Woman were not only rustlers but part of the Indian Supply crew. Yet what still had no answer was Clay Manning's part in that deal. Approaching camp where the two wagons had stopped beside the tank's rim, he saw the charred embers of other camps near the cook's fire. Owl-Head rose from stirring something in a Dutch oven and jerked a thumb toward them. "What do you make of that?" He didn't say. No use spreading what he knew. But Moonlight Bailey, driving ahead of the longhorns with his hor,se herd, had cut that trail from Crazy Woman. He was riding in between the wagons now, a small brown man with a bullfrog voice. "By Judas, Lew!" he burst out, "I know where our saddle stock went!'' "All right. Keep it to yourself." "Keep it!" Moonlight's round, simple face turned dusty red. "Tom's ribbed me plenty for losin' horses. If I hadn't listened to Clay, him tellin' me there was no use. lookin'-'' "Moonlight," he said, "shut up I" He had seen the canvas of Joy's wagon open. "Now you mind!" Then he heard her voice behind him. "Lew, come here." He wheeled his horse around. She was sitting on the blankets of her bed, her hat off and her dark hair falhng loose. "What was Moonlight saying?" "Nothing," he said. "Your wrangler sleeps out in the moon too much. He sees things." "No. It was about the horses and I've been thinking it wasn't possible for twenty or thirty head to vanish the way they did. What has Moonlight found?" He didn't want to worry her with 'mysteries, and yet he didn't want this discovery to get back to Clay Manning either. He said, "That's right, it was about the horses. Moonlight thinks he has the answer. I don't think he has. But let it go for now, will you? Don't talk." She nodded and smiled a little. "I learned to keep things to myself, Lew, long ago. I've had such a good example from you men." He grinned, and yet, riding from her, he hated that any doubt and suspicion should begin to trouble her so early on the trail. Long before Lew felt an uneasiness himself the cattle were smelling something in the air. He had marked six days in his logbook, estimating one hundred miles, when they came that late afternoon to the first stream bed on the plains. Pointing the herd into it, he searched on north for the double mountain landmark and saw only the unbroken horizon hard and sharp against the sky. There was no warning. One moment all the camp made its picture clear before his eyes. Tom Arnold stood with a tin cup waiting for his coffee. Joy and s~~ve were sittmg on the tongue of her wagon in one of their rare times together. Three dim-shaped riders were coming in for their meal. The next instant an unseen hand struck the campfire, scattering its red coals outward for a hundred feet. The wagon canvases bellied and slapped the bows like pistol shots. The stars were suddenly gone, and the wind's full force with its choking dust was something that a man nad to lean into strongly. No one needed his yelled order. Men were already running in the pitch dark toward their horse~. Yet no sound broke the almost silent thrust of the wind. Here on the flat plain, with nothing to strike against, it made only a thin hiss through the short grass. Then the ragged black pool was ahead of him. He could see the way they had swung north now in the direction the wind was blowing and knew they were held from a run so far because no leader had started it off. Their tight fear had to be broken. He understood the slim chance a man would have caught in that mass it it jumped suddenly into its blind stampede. But there was no other way; he rode directly in among the hard, unyielding bodies. The familiarity of a horseman, his voice lifted in a wordless crooning, seemed to ease their dumb brains. They began to move aside. They brought their heads down. He crowded on, weaving toward the middle. There were other riders around him in the dusty dark. Ghost shapes appeared higher than the ridgepole backs and vanished. Until after midnight he had a certain hope. These storms came up with the suddenness of a hurricane, then often ended in a short time as abruptly as they had come. But at midnight the wind was still rising with a harder thrust. It would not end soon. By three it was blowing with a strength that made his horse unste~dy. He knew the time by the strange unearthly light beginning to show a little of the herd for a distance that he could neither see nor guess. And above the rumble and clack of their walk the openmouthed groaning rose to a sharper key that turned a man's nerves raw. He could no longer locate his rock piles; only a slim chance would let him blunder onto the double butte. Each hour he could feel himself being pressed farther into the desert of the Staked Plain, beyond the last water that he knew. Dragging off his saddle and throwing it onto the fresh horse that Jim Hope brought, he spied two masked figures butting into the wind. Moving toward them, he recognized Clay Manning and Tom Arnold. They wter.• shouting together. He wanted a moment's talk, somehow the reassurance of other men's words. Bending beside them he yelled, "We've sure hit a bad one!" It was Clay next to him. His head turned. The violence of his answer bulged the handkerchief from his mouth. "A hell of a time to think of that! How you going to get us out of this?" Tight nerves snapped. "Fly out! You got a better way?" "Did have," Clay flung back. "It was a fool move at the start!" "Lew?" Tom Arnold thrust himself in front of them. He looked shrunken and dried out. "You got any idea where we are?" He couldn't have; they knew that. He shook his head and started to say, "All we can do-" A lash of the old man's temper cut him off. "Then, by God, I'm damned if I know what you're here for! This was no way to come!" He had no answer; you didn't fight Tom Arnold's temper. It would cool. And he understood the bitterness of what the man could lose. But at the same time he saw the quick ven· geance in Clay Manning's blood-shot eyr:s. He had got in his word with Delos Wheeler Lovelace Consolidated THE TWITCHELL CHILDDISARI\IAMENT PLAN Elmer Twitchell came out today with a proposal for a Disarmament Conference to precede the end of the war. "I want it at once in the interest of national safety," he declared. It was quite startling until Mr. Twitchell explained that it would apply to children only. -·- "I am for the disarmament of kiddies under the age of eight," he said. "The infants are swarming all over the premises heeled to the teeth, blood in their eyes and disposed to give and take no quarter. -·- "Little Willie, aged seven, sleeps with a tommy-gun, comes to breakfast with a mortar and spends all his spare time doing commando work. Jackie, aged five, attends him as a sort of armed bodyguard. Jerry, aged three, toddles around the house dragging a cannon, .Q couple of tanks and an airplane carrier. Wallie, aged one and a half, has a big force of toy soldiers, a dozen airplanes and a hangar in his crib. _,_ "There ain't a toy in the home that doesn't represent carnage. Hardly an hour passes that mother doesn't find the kids in the course of remodeling a chair or vacuum cleaner into a landing barge for amphibious operations. -·- "The infants seem to be concentrating their attack on the skies, but amphibious stuff comes next. They do all kinds of ground and underseas fighting, too; heavy rocks through the windows now and then for purposes of realism. -·- "What are the nicknames of little children today, 'Red,' 'Skinny' and 'Huck'?

They began to move how in a sohd way, too tired to stand any longer, too restless to lie down. Riding back in the first dusty brown light of dawn, he saw that Moonlight Bailey had already met one danger by leading four mares on picket ropes. Most of the horses were crowding up close. They would not desert their ladies. Jim Hop~ was riding behind them to catch any drift. From the campfire, loading up his kegs for an early start, Owl-Head yelled, "Breakfast, Lew? Got some beans with plenty of sand!" He shook his head and rode on to where Joy's mules were harnessed. She was up on the wagon seat with a handkerchief across her nose and mouth, ready to drive. He stepped down and tied the mules' halter ropes to the tail gate of the chuck wagon. He had to shout above the slapping rattle of canvas. "Get inside!" Only the blinking squint of her eyes showed over the handkerchief edge. Her voice reached him stubbornly. "This is my job!" He moved back to her, head down and leaning against the wind. "You want to go blind?" Sliding his arms under her legs and behind her back, he carried ;·.er to the rear end and put her in on the wagon bed. He grinned, feeling the dust dry in his mouth. "You won't miss anything. Don't stick your head out today." She pulled the handkerchief down, squinting up at his red-rimmed, burning eyes. "Have you had any sleep at all?" "Sure," he said, "plenty." It was like trying to talk inside of a drum. Passing the cook again, he shouted, "Keep up close!" A man could lose himself in this smother if he ever missed the longhorns' trail. In the short time since dawn the herd had drifted more than a mile. He followed their trampled swath and came to the ragged edge of drags. Only a few of their bony rumps showed; all others on either side and up toward the lead were blotted out by the brown dust. It was not a matter of driving the herd now, but of holding it back. They came on in a solid front, their great horns swinging from side to side as they crowded _a nd spread out I I Fea~ures.-WNU Release. NEW YORK.-In those days Detroit, Mich., was full of easy money.

Brown sat on a piano long before Helen Morgan, and in 1911 he was forever singing Alexander's Ragtime Band. "Come on and hear! Come on and hear!" Irving Berlin, himself only 23 then, marked a whole high school generation with that enduring song. Other songs of his marked other generations, and two wars. And now "My British Buddy" is melodic quick silver in London where Berlin's "This Is the Army" repeats its American success. Ever since he rose above the job of singing walter, Berlin has composed in F sharp. That is a toughie, six black keys hard to pick out, and only two easy white fellows.

He had a wife, a son, three daughters to enjoy them. About then, however, he came upon a derelict Southampton shipyard, irresistible to a man who had always wanted to build a better marine engine. He set to work with the help of various men, including one long-jawed fellow called Shaw. This was really ~.he incredible Lawrence of Arabia. The Southampton yard after a time produced the fastest singleengined speedboat in the world. And in this war it sets the pattem for those terrific little motor torpedo and gun boats flying the Union Jack under Nazi noses. There will be no second retirement for Scott-Paine for a white.

Easy Dessert: You need go no further than a bowlful of luscious, rosy-pink strawberries, plain or sugared with cream for a perfect summery dessert. Desserts are nutritious but they are served mainly for morale. Fruits, sparkling with their glorious colors, give a fitting close to a heavy meal. On the other hand, heavier desserts give a rich flavor to an otherwise simple meal. Desserts take care of the sweet tooth, that craving for something utterly delicious. No longer do they require only sugar. Substitutes have b~en developed that give pies, cakes and puddings all the goodnesl? of former times but do not dip into the stlgar canister with a big scoop. Desserts can give you part of the important protein requirement for the day if they're made with :::ereals. Add fruits to cereal and vou have a nourishing as well as appetite-appealing dish. Apricot Torte. ~4 cup melted shortening 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup sifte:l fiour 1 teaspoon soda liz teaspoon salt 2 cups quick-cooking oats Sift flour, measure, th~ s.ift ~gain with soda and salt. Add sugar and ~ats. Mix in melted shortening and olend well. Press half of the mixlure into a shallow pan. Make a filling by mixing 2lh cups of cooked, slightly sweetened apricots with l/4 ;:up of the fruit juice and flavoring with 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Pour this mixture over the oatmeal mixture and top with remaining oatmeal mix. Bake for 35 minutes in a moderate (350-degree) oven. Cool and cut into squares and serve with cream or lemon sauce. •Frozen Strawberry Omelet. (Serves 6) 1 pint strawberries, hulled and washed 1 tablespoon sugar 3 eggs separated 6 tablespoons powdered sugar Mash strawberries and granulat. ed Let stand to draw off juice. Beat egg yolks until thick and lemon colored, and egg whites until stiff. Drain juice from berries and add berries to egg yolks. Fold powdered sugar into egg whites and combine the 2 mix. turl!~. Add about 4 tablespoons of the berry juice. Pile lightly in the tray and freeze. Date-Nut Pudding. (Serves 6 to 8) 2 eggs 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon baking powder % teaspoon salt *cup sugar 1 cup dates, chopped 1 cup nuts, chopped ~ teaspoon vanilla Beat eggs until very light. Comcine flour, baking powder, salt and ;ugar. Add to beaten eggs, dates, nuts aoo vanilla. Stir until well blended. Spread evenly on a wellgreased paperlined pan (square). Lynn Says: Thrifty Tricks: Cream leftover vegetables and serve them piping hot over split, buttered biscuits. Stretch out the strawberries by adding a bit ot rhubarb when you make them into a sauce. The color will be rosy-red, the flavor delicious served over cottage pudding, plain cake or dumplings. ~ If you are low on fruits for coffee cake fillings use last winter's jams, jellies or marmalades. For a quick coffee cake batter, butter the pan, line with orange marmalade and pour batter over it. Cook potatoes with their skins on whenever poSsible to save valuable iron. Experiments show that potatoes, lose about 10 per cent of their iron in the cooking water. Two favorite, novel pies come in for their share ot honors as desserts. Notice the use of just the single crust to save fats: Chocolate Chip Pie. (Makes 1 9-inch pie) 1 baked pie shell 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatine 1.4 cup cold water 1 ¥! cups milk 3 egg yolks liz cup sugar M! teaspoon salt 1.4 teaspoon nutmeg 1;2 teaspoon vanilla 3 egg whites 3 tablespoons sugar Soak gelatin in cold water Scald · m ilk .

The first tw.:> days are over-accomplished with an ease that had everybody ftabbergasted. By evening of the first day we had done much more than the most optimistic planner figured we could in the first three days. So from now on it's "by the book." • • • For some reason which I haven't fathomed yet the conventional name of D-Day was changed for this invasion to "Love Day." Possibly it was because we were landing on Easter Sunday and somebody felt the spirit of brotherly love. At any rate when dawn came on I Love Day and the pink, rising sun I lifted the shroud of Oriental darkness aroun d us, we were a b so 1u t e 1y appall d · Fo e j 1 h d r a our mam convoys a 1 converged and th_ere they Jay around · · t' fl t t t hin us m .one gigan IC ee , s re c g fo~ miles.

They had been at it for a week, but this was a concentration whose fury hadn't been approached before. Bombardment ol Shore DeaFening The power of the thing was ghastly. Great sheets of flame would flash out from a battery of guns, gray brownish smoke would puff up in a huge cloud, then the crash of sound and concussion would carry across the water and hit you.

Do you believe a man who has saved some money has a nght to invest it in any business he la;:es and to operate that business, trying to make a reasonable profit? Do you believe that big-volume productwn at low cost lS the key to good pay? My answer is yes, to all three questions. If you agree, you subscril:le to the fundameqtals of the Labor-Management Ch!irter. It was signed in Washington lust March 28 by William Green for the American Federation of Labor, Eric Johnson for United States Chamber of Commerce, and Phil Murray for the Congress of Industrial Organizations. It is a powerful document, able (if carried out) to do the world more good than the famous Atlantic Charter. Nothing Original People who work surely have rights. Open competition is certainly fair. Economy of time and effort yields positive rewards. These ideas are not original. They are old and time-tested principles. All of them stand out clearly in the teachings of Jesus and of many great men who have lived and enriched the world more recently. They appear in the Labor-Management Charter. Besides declaring the rights of labor, the fairness of competition and the dividends of economy, the Labor-Management Charter contains two vital pledges: (I) To settle industrial disputes peaceably - no strikes, no violence, no lockouts, no trickery, and (2) To support a sound economic system in America-an expanding foreign trade and an enduring peace. Both are perfectly sound. Big Responsibility Being the richest and strongest nation in the world, the United States has a serious responsibility. It is graver than ever now, with a global war to finish and the world to be set in order. Miss Columbia must point the way and she stands at the crossroads. America's choice will determine which way the whole world goes; to peace and plenty or to poverty and oppression. Of the 200 billion people who have lived on earth, not more than 2% could call their souls their own. The way of the world has always been oppression and lt still is. Now especially the trend is toward dictatorship. Not 20% of the people now living ever dreamed of freedom and prosperity like we enjoy, but America is in actual danger of being carried with the political tide. Jobs and l\1arkets The Labor-Man11gement Charter points the right way: toward freedom of faith, security of ownership, and liberty in self-government. Like any guide-post it is powerless in itself, useful only if it is followed. If followed, however, it indicates an orderly transition from war to victory in peace and prosperity. If it is ignored, our alternate course leads to economic war, government by edict, lower wages, and less of the things people want. The system of open competition in enterprise made America the world'a most influential nation and kept it in the forefront of human progress for 170 years. A recent survey shows that conservative business men are ready, i! they have a chance, to offer more than one job per available worker after the war. For full employment, good pay, ready markets and active business, let's follow through with the LaborManagement Charter.

Sand fails to hold either moisture or pl~nt food very long. It is true that grass will grow in a sandy soil if it is watered and fed regularly, but the attention required is apt to be more than most of us · will give. On a heavy soil less attention is needed. If drainage is good and the ground is not packed by trampling feet, grass may do all right. Ideal lawn soil is a porous loam, sufficiently well drained so that it holds moisture and permits some circulation of air. For various reasons, however, the ideal soil is seldom available. We can improve sandy or clay soils by mixing in some o! the opposite type, plus a &enerous proportion of humus. Representative: HENRY KOENNING Phone 2331 PEOTONE, ILL.

Transport !Uules The American mule io an important transportation unit for our army, especially where the terrain is muddy and mountainous. Thousands of them are crossing the oceans, traveling in style, in ships that have been especially and expensively converted for the purpose. Seventeen ships-13 Liberty and 4 cargo ships - have been converted to mule carriers at an average cost ot $317,133 each. The ships are designed to carry from 320 to 699 mules- ?.'ith sick bays for 16 to 32 mules. A feature of the ships is that the stalls are built to accomm!>date mules of various sizes, from different areas.

The Ame rican voc abula ry has been enriched by a new word which has burdened the not e books of war d epartment s tenogr a phe rs in Washington for a long time. When I was in Sa n Fra ncisco I s a w its meaning graphically illustrated. The word is "redeployment." No, I didn ' t m a ke a ty pographical error . Re employment we have heard about before. ReDeployment is diffe rent. And in that word, as in Hauptmann's "tear," can sparkle "all the joy and all the sorrow of the world." This new word isn't in any dictionary. And in all the echoing acres of the Pentagon I could find no official definition of it but in its current application it simply means shifting a lot of American boys out of the European theater of war where the curtain has gone down. That process is causing many . a headache in the Pentagon. It wlll cause many a heartache at home and abroad. It will cause some happiness, too. For the boys and the families of the soldiers and sailors who are cast for the second act in the tragedy of World War II (and that is most of them) redeployment means heartaches. For the others it means happiness. But whether they go back to Main street and take up the plowshare or the pen, the hammer or the school book, or whether they go on to fresh battlefields, it is a headache as well as a heartache for the high command. - HELP WANTED-1\IEN, WOl\lEN -Couple -- aaretnkers !or - fa rm and Everybody Must Play the Game Bonsck~tper er Elc'lorly coup le P oli' h. speaking pr~l c rred . s t n y on fa rm. frt~ ,.. o f cha r ge w ith elderly lady no r th. w ...

CHAPTER VI The cart groaned. The right wheel -crumbled around the axle. The whole weight of the thing rolled slowly over into the ditch, and the shafts twisted and upset the mule, and the mule, which had always feared ditches on the right, screamed to find ltsel! falling into what it had feared . Errante hit the earth hard. He woke up, but what with his dazedness, his drunkenness, his surprise and his natural stupidity, he was unable to do anything except roar wordlessly. General Marvin was still roaring too. "Serve him right,'' he shouted. "Holding up traffic. Trying to stop the invasion." A new fury rushed up the General's cheeks. "Middleton," he shouted, "shoot that mule." Colonel Middleton's blood froze. He shouted back: "Do you think it's wise, sir?" The General shouted: ''What's that? What's that?" Colonel Middleton knew it was hopeless but he shouted again: "I said, do you think it is wise, sir?" Trying to reason with any man, and especially with this man at two hundred feet and the top of one's lungs was not rewarding work. The General shouted: "Middleton, you trying to stop the invasion too? Do what I say." So Colonel Middleton pulled out his ..:::olt and fired three shots into the head of the screaming mule. All this was accomplished before Errante Gaetano was able to shape his roaring into words. He stood there in absolute amazement at the :shooting. General Marvin shouted: "Let's go, can't spend all day here." The men got back into the armored car and the seep. As they started up, General Marvin said: "Got to teach these people a lesson. Take me to the mayor of this town, what is this town anyhow?" And they drove off, leaving Errante sobbing on the flank of his mule, lying with his arms around the neck of the mule which had had a sense of the middle but no s ense of urgency. The General's armored car pulled up in front of the P a la zzo di Citta. Lieutenant Byrd ran across the wide sidewalk and up the marble stairs and burst into Major Joppolo's office. He interrupted the Major in the middle of a conversation with Gargano, the Chief of the Carabinieri. "General Marvin's downstairs and wants to see you," the Lieutenant said. "He's mad as hell, so you better hurry." "General Marvin,'' said Major J oppolo, and the tone of his voice was not of delight. Though he had never met the General, he had heard much about him. "I'll be right down." I Lieutenant Byrd turned and ran downstairs. Major Joppolo absentmindedly arranged the papers on his desk in neat piles. Then he stood up and walked out of his office. Half way down the marble stairs he realized that he was out of uniform. He had heard stories of General Marvin's insistence on correct uniform. Here he was in pink pants and khaki shirt, when he was supposed to be in woolens. He was suddenly very frightened, and he turned and began walking up the stairs again, trying to figure out w)lat to do, how to get into proper uniform. Colonel Middleton ran to the foot of the marble stairs and shouted up: "Hey, you, what do you mean by keeping the General waiting?" "Yes, sir," Major Joppolo said. "Be right down." There was nothing to do. He ran down the stairs. When Major Joppolo reached the armored car, the General was sitting with his left arm raised in front of him, glaring at his wrist watch. Major Joppolo saluted. General Marvin roared: "One minute and twenty s econds. You' ve been keeping me waiting one minute and twenty seconds. Do you think I nave all day to wait for you? Who are you, anyway?" "Major Joppolo, sir, senior civil affairs officer, town of Adana, sir." General Marvin remembered the cart and was apparently too a ngry even to notice Major Joppolo' s uniform. "Major, these Italian carts are holding up our whole invasion. Keep them out of this town. Don't you let another cart come across that bridge back there into this town. What the hell is this town, anyway?" "Adano, sir, town of Adano." "Adano. Keep the carts out of this town, you hear me?" "Yes, sir, I'll take care of that right away." 'l'he General shouted : "Right away? That's not soon enough for me." "Sir, I'll go right up and call the M.P.'s and tell them about it." "That's not soon enough. I want action. No more carts. Adano's the name of this town, remember that Middleton, Adana. No more cart~ at all, Major, do you understand? What are you standing there gawking about? Action. Let's get going, let's get out of here, do you think I have all day?" And before Major Joppolo could even salute, the armored car had roared away. By the time he reached his desk again, Major Joppolo realized what the consequences of keeping the carts out of town would be. He knew very well how essential they were to the life of the place. With a heavy heart he cranked his field telephone, asked for Rowboat Blue Forward, got the ear o! Captain Purvis, head of the M.P.'s in Adano, and ordered him in the name of General Marvin, to keep all carts out of Adano, to stop them at the bridge on the east and at the sulphur refinery on the west. Then he called for Zito, his usher, and asked him to assemble all the officials of the town in his office. When they were all in, Major Joppolo stood at his desk and said: "I have promised to tell you every important thing which the American authorities decide to do in this town . I do not want this to be a town of mysteries. In a democracy one ot the most important things is for everyone to know as much as possible about what is going on. "The American authorities have decided that because of military necessities it will no longer be possible for mule carts to come into the streets of town." Major J oppolo could see his audience suck in its collective breath. N his forehead, though furrowed, was the skin o! a tough young man. He ATURE is not always kind to jumped to his feet, twisting his cap the farmer or to the Victory in his strong hands, and he shouted: gardener.

The Major lifted his pen and pointed it at the next man. "And you," he said, "your name." Thls was a man who seemed a little backward. He was timid in the way he stood up and he did not twist his cap with any enthusiasm, as the others did. His voice was slow and he had to think a long time before he could sa;v his own name. Finally it came out: "Erba 1 Carlo, Mister Major." "And you desire?" Erba stopped and thought. His eyes wandered. He looked at the Saint of the Telephone.

The three Italians were e vidently poor but r espected m en. T he re was a kind of democracy in their coming to see the Major: they were the chosen delegates of all the cartmen, to argue this thing out. They all had old, clea n coats on and they all clutched cloth caps i~ their hands. Zito brought three chairs forward, and they s a t in a half circle opposite the Major. The Major pointed with a fountain pen at one of the men and s a id in Italian: "You. What is your nam e ?" The man was about sixty. His httir was pure white but the skin of Sturdy Wood Handle FOLDS to 20~ inch unit VICTORY I He said: "I am not happy to have to announce this decision. It is because of military necessities. I am sorry. That is all." The officials of Adano, a comiclooking collection, turned sadly to go. They did not protest. They had learned during the years of Fascism how to swallow their protests. But Major Joppolo could tell that they were not with him, that for the first time in nine days they were against him. Before the first of them reached the door, Major J oppolo said: "I wish to tell you that I will do all that is in my power to have this unjust order revoked." And when the comic-looking officials o:f Adano went out of the door of the Major's office, they were still sad but they were for him. The Major worried all day about the order and wondered what he could do about it. He slept very badly during the night, because of his worry. Early in the morning, Zito, the little usher, came up to his desk and said: "Mister Major, there are three men to see you about the carts."

Easy Dessert: You need go no further than a bowlful of luscious, rosy-pink strawberries, plain or sugared with cream for a perfect summery dessert. Desserts are nutritious but they are served mainly for morale. Fruits, sparkling with their glorious colors, give a fitting close to a heavy meal. On the other hand, heavier desserts give a rich flavor to an otherwise simple meal. Desserts take care of the sweet tooth, that craving for something utterly delicious. No longer do they require only sugar. Substitutes have b~en developed that give pies, cakes and puddings all the goodnesl? of former times but do not dip into the stlgar canister with a big scoop. Desserts can give you part of the important protein requirement for the day if they're made with :::ereals. Add fruits to cereal and vou have a nourishing as well as appetite-appealing dish. Apricot Torte. ~4 cup melted shortening 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup sifte:l fiour 1 teaspoon soda liz teaspoon salt 2 cups quick-cooking oats Sift flour, measure, th~ s.ift ~gain with soda and salt. Add sugar and ~ats. Mix in melted shortening and olend well. Press half of the mixlure into a shallow pan. Make a filling by mixing 2lh cups of cooked, slightly sweetened apricots with l/4 ;:up of the fruit juice and flavoring with 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Pour this mixture over the oatmeal mixture and top with remaining oatmeal mix. Bake for 35 minutes in a moderate (350-degree) oven. Cool and cut into squares and serve with cream or lemon sauce. •Frozen Strawberry Omelet. (Serves 6) 1 pint strawberries, hulled and washed 1 tablespoon sugar 3 eggs separated 6 tablespoons powdered sugar Mash strawberries and granulat. ed Let stand to draw off juice. Beat egg yolks until thick and lemon colored, and egg whites until stiff. Drain juice from berries and add berries to egg yolks. Fold powdered sugar into egg whites and combine the 2 mix. turl!~. Add about 4 tablespoons of the berry juice. Pile lightly in the tray and freeze. Date-Nut Pudding. (Serves 6 to 8) 2 eggs 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon baking powder % teaspoon salt *cup sugar 1 cup dates, chopped 1 cup nuts, chopped ~ teaspoon vanilla Beat eggs until very light. Comcine flour, baking powder, salt and ;ugar. Add to beaten eggs, dates, nuts aoo vanilla. Stir until well blended. Spread evenly on a wellgreased paperlined pan (square). Lynn Says: Thrifty Tricks: Cream leftover vegetables and serve them piping hot over split, buttered biscuits. Stretch out the strawberries by adding a bit ot rhubarb when you make them into a sauce. The color will be rosy-red, the flavor delicious served over cottage pudding, plain cake or dumplings. ~ If you are low on fruits for coffee cake fillings use last winter's jams, jellies or marmalades. For a quick coffee cake batter, butter the pan, line with orange marmalade and pour batter over it. Cook potatoes with their skins on whenever poSsible to save valuable iron. Experiments show that potatoes, lose about 10 per cent of their iron in the cooking water. Two favorite, novel pies come in for their share ot honors as desserts.

The first tw.:> days are over-accomplished with an ease that had everybody ftabbergasted. By evening of the first day we had done much more than the most optimistic planner figured we could in the first three days. So from now on it's "by the book." • • • For some reason which I haven't fathomed yet the conventional name of D-Day was changed for this invasion to "Love Day."

They had been at it for a week, but this was a concentration whose fury hadn't been approached before. Bombardment ol Shore DeaFening The power of the thing was ghastly. Great sheets of flame would flash out from a battery of guns, gray brownish smoke would puff up in a huge cloud, then the crash of sound and concussion would carry across the water and hit you.

Do you believe a man who has saved some money has a nght to invest it in any business he la;:es and to operate that business, trying to make a reasonable profit? Do you believe that big-volume productwn at low cost lS the key to good pay? My answer is yes, to all three questions. If you agree, you subscril:le to the fundameqtals of the Labor-Management Ch!irter. It was signed in Washington lust March 28 by William Green for the American Federation of Labor, Eric Johnson for United States Chamber of Commerce, and Phil Murray for the Congress of Industrial Organizations. It is a powerful document, able (if carried out) to do the world more good than the famous Atlantic Charter. Nothing Original People who work surely have rights. Open competition is certainly fair. Economy of time and effort yields positive rewards. These ideas are not original. They are old and time-tested principles. All of them stand out clearly in the teachings of Jesus and of many great men who have lived and enriched the world more recently. They appear in the Labor-Management Charter. Besides declaring the rights of labor, the fairness of competition and the dividends of economy, the Labor-Management Charter contains two vital pledges: (I) To settle industrial disputes peaceably - no strikes, no violence, no lockouts, no trickery, and (2) To support a sound economic system in America-an expanding foreign trade and an enduring peace. Both are perfectly sound. Big Responsibility Being the richest and strongest nation in the world, the United States has a serious responsibility. It is graver than ever now, with a global war to finish and the world to be set in order. Miss Columbia must point the way and she stands at the crossroads. America's choice will determine which way the whole world goes; to peace and plenty or to poverty and oppression. Of the 200 billion people who have lived on earth, not more than 2% could call their souls their own. The way of the world has always been oppression and lt still is. Now especially the trend is toward dictatorship. Not 20% of the people now living ever dreamed of freedom and prosperity like we enjoy, but America is in actual danger of being carried with the political tide. Jobs and l\1arkets The Labor-Man11gement Charter points the right way: toward freedom of faith, security of ownership, and liberty in self-government. Like any guide-post it is powerless in itself, useful only if it is followed. If followed, however, it indicates an orderly transition from war to victory in peace and prosperity. If it is ignored, our alternate course leads to economic war, government by edict, lower wages, and less of the things people want. The system of open competition in enterprise made America the world'a most influential nation and kept it in the forefront of human progress for 170 years. A recent survey shows that conservative business men are ready, i! they have a chance, to offer more than one job per available worker after the war. For full employment, good pay, ready markets and active business, let's follow through with the LaborManagement Charter.

Sand fails to hold either moisture or pl~nt food very long. It is true that grass will grow in a sandy soil if it is watered and fed regularly, but the attention required is apt to be more than most of us · will give. On a heavy soil less attention is needed. If drainage is good and the ground is not packed by trampling feet, grass may do all right. Ideal lawn soil is a porous loam, sufficiently well drained so that it holds moisture and permits some circulation of air. For various reasons, however, the ideal soil is seldom available. We can improve sandy or clay soils by mixing in some o! the opposite type, plus a &enerous proportion of humus. Representative: HENRY KOENNING Phone 2331 PEOTONE, ILL.

Some of the most delicious carrots are those of pencil size, thinned from the row. These tiny carrots are a treat exclusive to the home gardener because they never ap~car on markets. The saving way to use leaf lettuce and chard from the garden is to pick the leaves only, and let the plant continue to grow and produce more 'leaves. Transport !Uules The American mule io an important transportation unit for our army, especially where the terrain is muddy and mountainous. Thousands of them are crossing the oceans, traveling in style, in ships that have been especially and expensively converted for the purpose. Seventeen ships-13 Liberty and 4 cargo ships - have been converted to mule carriers at an average cost ot $317,133 each. The ships are designed to carry from 320 to 699 mules- ?.'ith sick bays for 16 to 32 mules. A feature of the ships is that the stalls are built to accomm!>date mules of various sizes, from different areas. A Missouri mule, for example, requires more space than tlle slightly smaller Texas mule. Sta.ls are built crosswise, as it has been discovered that this type Gf str..JC'tt_,rc largely eliminates seaSICkness on the part of the mules, and they arrive fit for 1mmediate se1·vice. Broody Hens Broodiness in poultry will cause only a minimum of trouble if the poultryman acts quickly. At the first symptom of broodiness, the hen should either be culled or removed to the broody coop. The most satlsf?ctory coop is set off the ground and has a bottom of slats or chicken wire. It's also important to feed broody hens the same ration that vou feed the laying flock.

South Admitted to the bar in 1915, Judge Bartley has practiced law in Joliet, with the exception of the time spent in the Navy in World War I, until he was elected to the circuit bench in 1939. He has set an enviable record in clearing the dockets of hundreds of old cases and has earned the respect and confidence of practicing lawyers in this judicial district. Today there are no cases pending where either litigant has desired trial. His is a record to be proud of. Those who know Judge Henry well, say be h&s all the qualities necessary for the position of judge on the circuit bench. His experience as county judge of Kankakee county, his temperament, his friendly, courteous, and sympathetic servioe to the people, stamp him as a man who can and will fill the position of circuit court judge with fidelity.

Declaring that Churchill's restraint "advanced the cause of inter national morality," De Valera said: "It is indeed fortunate that Britain's nece ssity did not reach the point when Mr. Churchill would have acted. All credit to him tha t he successfully resisted the temptation." But if De Vale ra had pra ise for Churchill, he had c ensure, too. Answering Churchill's decla r ation that only North Ireland's furnishing of ba ses preven ted Britis h action a gainst E ire itself, De Vale ra regretted tha t the Briton had turned to " abus ing a people who ha ve done him no wrong, trying to find in a crisis like the pres ent excuse for continuing the injustice of the separation (of the north and south) of our country ."

The Ame rican voc abula ry has been enriched by a new word which has burdened the not e books of war d epartment s tenogr a phe rs in Washington for a long time. When I was in Sa n Fra ncisco I s a w its meaning graphically illustrated. The word is "redeployment." No, I didn ' t m a ke a ty pographical error . Re employment we have heard about before. ReDeployment is diffe rent. And in that word, as in Hauptmann's "tear," can sparkle "all the joy and all the sorrow of the world." This new word isn't in any dictionary. And in all the echoing acres of the Pentagon I could find no official definition of it but in its current application it simply means shifting a lot of American boys out of the European theater of war where the curtain has gone down. That process is causing many . a headache in the Pentagon. It wlll cause many a heartache at home and abroad. It will cause some happiness, too. For the boys and the families of the soldiers and sailors who are cast for the second act in the tragedy of World War II (and that is most of them) redeployment means heartaches. For the others it means happiness. But whether they go back to Main street and take up the plowshare or the pen, the hammer or the school book, or whether they go on to fresh battlefields, it is a headache as well as a heartache for the high command. - HELP WANTED-1\IEN, WOl\lEN -Couple -- aaretnkers !or - fa rm and Everybody Must Play the Game Bonsck~tper er Elc'lorly coup le P oli' h. speaking pr~l c rred . s t n y on fa rm. frt~ ,.. o f cha r ge w ith elderly lady no r th. w ...

CHAPTER VI The cart groaned. The right wheel -crumbled around the axle. The whole weight of the thing rolled slowly over into the ditch, and the shafts twisted and upset the mule, and the mule, which had always feared ditches on the right, screamed to find ltsel! falling into what it had feared . Errante hit the earth hard. He woke up, but what with his dazedness, his drunkenness, his surprise and his natural stupidity, he was unable to do anything except roar wordlessly. General Marvin was still roaring too. "Serve him right,'' he shouted. "Holding up traffic. Trying to stop the invasion." A new fury rushed up the General's cheeks. "Middleton," he shouted, "shoot that mule." Colonel Middleton's blood froze. He shouted back: "Do you think it's wise, sir?" The General shouted: ''What's that? What's that?" Colonel Middleton knew it was hopeless but he shouted again: "I said, do you think it is wise, sir?" Trying to reason with any man, and especially with this man at two hundred feet and the top of one's lungs was not rewarding work. The General shouted: "Middleton, you trying to stop the invasion too? Do what I say." So Colonel Middleton pulled out his ..:::olt and fired three shots into the head of the screaming mule. All this was accomplished before Errante Gaetano was able to shape his roaring into words. He stood there in absolute amazement at the :shooting. General Marvin shouted: "Let's go, can't spend all day here." The men got back into the armored car and the seep. As they started up, General Marvin said: "Got to teach these people a lesson. Take me to the mayor of this town, what is this town anyhow?" And they drove off, leaving Errante sobbing on the flank of his mule, lying with his arms around the neck of the mule which had had a sense of the middle but no s ense of urgency. The General's armored car pulled up in front of the P a la zzo di Citta. Lieutenant Byrd ran across the wide sidewalk and up the marble stairs and burst into Major Joppolo's office. He interrupted the Major in the middle of a conversation with Gargano, the Chief of the Carabinieri. "General Marvin's downstairs and wants to see you," the Lieutenant said. "He's mad as hell, so you better hurry." "General Marvin,'' said Major J oppolo, and the tone of his voice was not of delight. Though he had never met the General, he had heard much about him. "I'll be right down." I Lieutenant Byrd turned and ran downstairs. Major Joppolo absentmindedly arranged the papers on his desk in neat piles. Then he stood up and walked out of his office. Half way down the marble stairs he realized that he was out of uniform. He had heard stories of General Marvin's insistence on correct uniform. Here he was in pink pants and khaki shirt, when he was supposed to be in woolens. He was suddenly very frightened, and he turned and began walking up the stairs again, trying to figure out w)lat to do, how to get into proper uniform. Colonel Middleton ran to the foot of the marble stairs and shouted up: "Hey, you, what do you mean by keeping the General waiting?" "Yes, sir," Major Joppolo said. "Be right down." There was nothing to do. He ran down the stairs. When Major Joppolo reached the armored car, the General was sitting with his left arm raised in front of him, glaring at his wrist watch. Major Joppolo saluted. General Marvin roared: "One minute and twenty s econds. You' ve been keeping me waiting one minute and twenty seconds. Do you think I nave all day to wait for you? Who are you, anyway?" "Major Joppolo, sir, senior civil affairs officer, town of Adana, sir." General Marvin remembered the cart and was apparently too a ngry even to notice Major Joppolo' s uniform. "Major, these Italian carts are holding up our whole invasion. Keep them out of this town. Don't you let another cart come across that bridge back there into this town. What the hell is this town, anyway?" "Adano, sir, town of Adano." "Adano. Keep the carts out of this town, you hear me?" "Yes, sir, I'll take care of that right away." 'l'he General shouted : "Right away? That's not soon enough for me." "Sir, I'll go right up and call the M.P.'s and tell them about it." "That's not soon enough. I want action. No more carts. Adano's the name of this town, remember that Middleton, Adana. No more cart~ at all, Major, do you understand? What are you standing there gawking about? Action. Let's get going, let's get out of here, do you think I have all day?" And before Major Joppolo could even salute, the armored car had roared away. By the time he reached his desk again, Major Joppolo realized what the consequences of keeping the carts out of town would be. He knew very well how essential they were to the life of the place. With a heavy heart he cranked his field telephone, asked for Rowboat Blue Forward, got the ear o! Captain Purvis, head of the M.P.'s in Adano, and ordered him in the name of General Marvin, to keep all carts out of Adano, to stop them at the bridge on the east and at the sulphur refinery on the west. Then he called for Zito, his usher, and asked him to assemble all the officials of the town in his office. When they were all in, Major Joppolo stood at his desk and said: "I have promised to tell you every important thing which the American authorities decide to do in this town . I do not want this to be a town of mysteries. In a democracy one ot the most important things is for everyone to know as much as possible about what is going on. "The American authorities have decided that because of military necessities it will no longer be possible for mule carts to come into the streets of town." Major J oppolo could see his audience suck in its collective breath. N his forehead, though furrowed, was the skin o! a tough young man.

The Major lifted his pen and pointed it at the next man. "And you," he said, "your name." Thls was a man who seemed a little backward. He was timid in the way he stood up and he did not twist his cap with any enthusiasm, as the others did. His voice was slow and he had to think a long time before he could sa;v his own name. Finally it came out: "Erba 1 Carlo, Mister Major." "And you desire?" Erba stopped and thought. His eyes wandered. He looked at the Saint of the Telephone.

The three Italians were e vidently poor but r espected m en.

They all had old, clea n coats on and they all clutched cloth caps i~ their hands. Zito brought three chairs forward, and they s a t in a half circle opposite the Major. The Major pointed with a fountain pen at one of the men and s a id in Italian: "You. What is your nam e ?" The man was about sixty. His httir was pure white but the skin of Sturdy Wood Handle FOLDS to 20~ inch unit VICTORY I He said: "I am not happy to have to announce this decision. It is because of military necessities. I am sorry. That is all." The officials of Adano, a comiclooking collection, turned sadly to go. They did not protest. They had learned during the years of Fascism how to swallow their protests. But Major Joppolo could tell that they were not with him, that for the first time in nine days they were against him. Before the first of them reached the door, Major J oppolo said: "I wish to tell you that I will do all that is in my power to have this unjust order revoked." And when the comic-looking officials o:f Adano went out of the door of the Major's office, they were still sad but they were for him. The Major worried all day about the order and wondered what he could do about it. He slept very badly during the night, because of his worry. Early in the morning, Zito, the little usher, came up to his desk and said: "Mister Major, there are three men to see you about the carts." Because it worried him, the Major snapped ba ck ang rily at Zito: "What do they wa nt about the carts?" "That is something the y wish to tell you, Mister Ma jor ," Zito said.

CRETE. ILL. With Lee G.IHiller in the Pacific: ..---Your 1915 Garden-----. I ? An Old Friend Talc"es Up Where Ernie Pyle Left Off Lauds Famed War Correspondent For Loyalty to His Following By LEE G. MILLER MANILA- (by wireless) - . They've asked me to take over Ernie Pyle's column. I have agreed to try it, though with misgivings. I'm not going to try to "write like Ernie." All I can do is write like Miller. If occasionally something pops out that looks as if I were consciously imitating Ernie's way of writing, please bear in mind that he and I worked together almost constantly since 1923 when we both got jobs on the Washington Daily News. Such long association is apt to result in some similarities of thought and mannerism. Light Supper Is Cooling on a Hot Night <See Recipes Below) Keep Kitchens Cool Nothing makes the family's appetite wane quite so quickly as a meal that makes the ~ ...... house uncomfortably warm dur, ~)) ing hot weather. ,L A cool and comfortable room, set ~ with a table that suggests coolness, 1 will be much more comfortable all the way around. Mother would do best to plan a meal that is nourishing but not too hearty. The main dish and vegetables )nay be warm, but dessert and salad should be icy cold to suggest that summer was kept in mind during the planning of the menu. If the bulk of the actual cooking is done during the cool mornings, then the kitchen can retain some semblance of coolness during the evening hours. Such things as cooking filling for pies, making cookies or cake or cooking vegetables for a salad can be prepared before the sun rises high in the sky and sends the temperature to the highest rungs of the thermometer. Main entrees, if broiled, will also help during hot weather. They take 1only a few mintjtes to cook, like this /low-point grill: Hamburger Grill. (Serves 6) 1 pound ham burger onion, grated, if desired 1 teaspoon salt % teaspoon pepper 4 sliees bacon 2 large bananas 1 tablespoon lemon juice Combine meat, onion, salt and pepper. Mix well.

Arrange meat cakes on rack. Brush bananas with lemon juice and place alongside meat. Broil until !meat is browned. To serve, arrange hamburgers on individual serving plates. Top each with a -strip of bacon and place broiled ba.nana slice at each side. Potato chips and tomato cucumber salad may be served with the grill. Chicken is delectable when cooked a Ia king, but it's invitingly cool when served molded. Then it can be sliced and served garnished with quartered hard-boiled eggs and to.Inato wedges: Molded Chicken a Ia King. 1 (Serves 8) -4 tablespoons butter or substitute ~4 cup chopped green pepper lh cup sliced mushrooms 1 cup milk, scalded lh cup hot chicken stock ~ cup chopped pimiento 1 cup diced cooked chicken 4 egg yolks 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 tablespoon gelatin 2 tablespoons cold water * Lynn Says Perfect Salads: You'll like oranges sliced or sectioned and rolled in shredded coconut on lettuce cups. Peach or apricot halves placed on top of shredded cabbage which is rich in vitamin C is a delightful salad for hot weather eating. Blend mayonnaise with peach juice or sour cream for a really smooth dressing. Odd bits of meat go well riding the tops of vegetable sal ads. Shred or cube them and extend with bits of cheese, if necessary. Thousand Is land dressing which is so excellent on quarters of chilled lettuce is even better if it has a few wedges of meaty ripe olives in it.

What I'm driving at is this: I will feel miserable if people get the idea I have the impertinence to aspire to fill Ernie's shoes. Maybe I can fill the space where his copy has run, but I'm fully aware that nobody will ever fill the place that Ernie won in the thoughts and hearts of so many millions of Lee G. Miller Americans. Other correspondents are always trying to figure out the reason for Ernie's great success. I don't know that I have the right answer to that one. But my guess is that the basic reason was quite simple-that Ernie was a very competent craftsman, skilled from those years he devoted as a desk man to polishing the copy of other people, and-this is more important-he had a warmth about him, and an understanding of people. He used to say of certain friends that there was "a harmony" between them and there came to be a "harmony" between Ernie and, the Lord only knows why, many people who were actually complete strangers to him, but who regarded him as a personal friend. It was that friendship of those unknown readers that drove Ernie to his death. Perhaps it will sound mawkish to put it in words, but it is a fact that he felt he couldn't reject the responsibility imposed by the devotion of those strangers who were his friends. He forced himself, against the advice of friends and against his own gnawing fear of death, to go back into action. Took His Chances With the Rest ,. Commander Vic Blakeslee of the navy was here the other night. He was with Ernie on Guam. He said he pleaded with Ernie not go to ashore with the troops in the Ryukyus. 1 ' He was looking pale and tired," Vic said. "I tried to tell him he was too useful a citizen to take chances with his life. I told him he was surely going to get killed if he kept on pressing his luck. But his mind was made up and I couldn't do anything about it." It may be that Ernie was getting self-conscious. I mean he had become such a celebrity that he was treated like royalty wherever he went: Special favors were showered on him. The big shots curried him. And I suspect that he had an uncomfortable feeling about all thisa feeling that this was very nice but it wasn't his way, that he had to get back where he belonged, with the troops. I said long ago that if Ernie ever got killed I'd go home at once and try to write a biography of him. It ought to be done. But it looks as if I'll have to stay overseas a while. Maybe Lt. Comdr. Max Miller, author of "I Cover the Waterfront" and many other books, would do a biography of Ernie. Max loved him, and Max was with him for weeks in the Pacific. But nobody ought to write a book about Ernie without Jerry's help. Jerry is Ernie's wife-"That Girl" he used to mention in his column. If Jerry were in better h ealth she ought to write a book herself. She knew Ernie far better than anybody else ever did. She writes beautifully. But J erry hasn't been well these past few years, and now that the thing has happened that she dreaded during those lonely days and 1 years in Albuquerque-well, I guess it's out of the question. If Max or somebody does write a book about Ernie, it ought to be the whole story, not just a gilded "suecess story" or a Parson Weems fable. Maybe John Steinbeck would do it, or Ernie's old friend Paige Cavanaugh, or Milton Mackaye or Dorathy Disney or any one of many writing people who were Ernie's close friends. But let them picture the • whole man. Ernie was no cardboard saint. He u1>ed bad words sometimes. He drank sometimes. It was fun for him to relax with friends over a few highballs. Any biographer of Ernie should go to Indiana and talk 'to Ernie's fathe r and his Aunt Mary, and to his schoolmates at Indiana university. He ought to talk to people who worked with him in the old days in Washington when we were young and carefree and Ernie met Jerry. And with some of the old aviation crowd who used to gather at Ernie's and Jerry's place at 456 N St. S. W., in Washington-! think that was the number-and talk shop or sweat out the disappearance of a mail pilot. It ought to be a careful job, not a slapdash thing to "catch the market." I don't think Ernie is going to be forgotten in a hurry. Quench ThiTSt By Helmetful11 We jeeped northward through Manila, up crowded Rizal avenue with its hundreds of tiny shops and its sidewalks aswarm with Filipinos and sight-seeing soldiers and sailors. Out past the quaintly beautiful Chinese cemetery with its pagodaed shrines, past the Balintewok brewery in the city's outskirts where conquering doughfoots paused in Februa ry to quench their thirst by the helmetfuls. And on up the concrete highway, between rice fields, over the Meccano-like Bailey bridges and other bridges of timber that our engineers had installed alongside the misshapen wrecks of prewar spans. We paused from time to time to let a carabao lumbe r across the road to his wallow, or to let an MP check our trip ticket, or to sit out ~ congestion caused by slow-moving Filipino vehicles drawn by undersized horses or plodding water buffalo. We veered to the right, eastward of Mount Arayat, which rears in lorlely grandeur from the fertile plain. As darkness fell the rain started, gently at first but finally in torrential bucketfuls against which the jeep top was as useless as cheesecloth. We came upon a stalled truckful of dripping soldiers, and g.av€ them a tow. Three times their motor got started and we stopped to undo the tow rope, but three times their engine sputtered out again. After some miles it got going properly and we drove on unencumbered through the dowppour, which by now was getting chill. Finally we reached the division' s rear echelon headquarters, where we wolfed some cheese, bread and coffee, got into dry underwear and hit the sack in a comfortable billet. The next morning we drove on to the division command post and were getting settled in a pyramidal tent when batteries of 155 mm. Long Toms a'nd 240 howitzers, emplace1 almost within spitting distance, began their morning calisthenics with blasts that rippled the tent. At the G2 tent, Lt. Col. Jay D. Vanderpool, who is only 28, gave us the best briefing I'd ever had, tracing the progress of the division on an excellent r elief map. Brig. Gen. James L . ("Dusty") Dalton dropped by for a talk. He turned out to be a West Point class mate and brother-in-law of my friend Col. Dodd Starbird, who he believed was now with General Patton. (I had just finished writing thisthree days after that conversationwhen a soldier brought word that a Jap sniper had killed General Dalton, of whom more later.) I went around to pay my respects to the division commanding general, Maj. Gen. Charles L. Mullins Jr., a West Pointer whose wife lives in Losolivos, Calif. General Mullins knew Ernie Pyle. That was years ago when Ernie and Jerry were touring Central America and Mullins was establishing a military academy for Nicaragua. Ernie wrote a piece about him. Yanks Find Colonel Hayashi Tough Customer The men of this division are piqued because somehow people seem to regard the campaign for Balete pass as part and parcel of the recent drive for Baguio, the Philippine summer capital. Baguio is only 35 miles away as the crow flies, but tactically speaking it might almost be on another island. Baguio fell weeks ago. Balete pass wasn't pronounced officially secured until the day I arrived here. This is mountain fighting, ridge by ridge, against a J ap who is a master at defensive exploitation of such terrain. The J ap is Colonel Hayashi, the same Hayashi who when the first cavalry trapped him in Santo Tomas internment camp at Manila February 3, used Ameri1~an hostages to bargain a safe exit for himself and his men. 1i I t~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Corn post Needed I~ To Insure Good I~ Ves·etable Growth All( ME ANOTHER A General Quiz • !~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SEVERAL hardy vegetables will withstand frosts and even freezes and thus may become a part of the fall garden. P lantings of these vegetables in August, September and October and in some sections of the country, even later, may be made and still harvest a crop. They include beets, collards, kale, lettuce. mustard, spinach and turnips. In these months too, it is time to look forward to next year's garden. It is a good time to start that compost pile and have it ready for the spring plantm• ing. It is a good time to spade up 1 that portion of your garden for the very early plantings next year. It is time to sow a cover crop for the winter which is a very good practice. These cover crops may include clover, rye, wheat or some other such crop, but 1t is advisable to consult your local county agent or agricultural college to determine the most profitable winter cover in your own locality. Have you proper storage facilities for your surplus root crops such as potatoes, beets, carrots, parsnips? If not, now is the time to get busy. ' If you do not have a proper base1 ment in your home, that is one that remains cool enough to properly store the vegetables, consult your county agent about this too. He will be able to advise you how to store these vegetables economically so that they will remain in good condition throughout the winter. These fall months too will give you time to burn diseased residue of your crops for it is not a good thing to let them lie about the place and be overlooked in the spring. The successful gardener, after his harvest, can also take stock of his experience during the season to determine what vegetables.he will not plant next year. Too much stress cannot be placed upon the importance of that compost pile, particularly in the towns and cities where organic matter is not readily available to improve the soil and workability of the garden plot. In the fall when leaves and dried lawn clippings and other dry grasses are readily at hand, it does not require too much work to throw these materials into a flat pile, alternate with layers of dirt. The dirt layers should be two to three inches thick with the gr;iss and GAft 0 EN VICTORY The Questions I. What President popularized the fireside? 2.

Rubber contracts and ripples Into on unstretched slate in much the same way as on earthworm moves across tho 'urfaco of tho ground. From April 1, 1942, to August 31, 1944, the total amount of natural rubber imported into the United Statea was 214,148 long tons. India and Africa supplied 35.3%; 31.90/o came from latin America, and 15.3o/o from liberia. The re• maining 17.5o/o came from 1hlpmenta in transit when •ourcea were lost to Japan, Busses now corry more than half the total number of persons trans~ ported by Intercity public carrion In the Unit•d States, The result of a well-planned garden, filled shelves. leaves or other vegetation approximately twice that thick. Generous handfuls of commercial fertilizer should be thrown over the vegetation to aid in its proper decomposition. The gardener will find that next spring his compost will enable him to garden more successfully and easier and that it will be well worth the added labor. I Winter Care of Tools Important Now is the time also to see that tools are properly put away, that they are free from soil. The spade and hoe can be sharpened ready to use when spring spading time comes. If there is any. indication that fertilizer or insecticides or fungicides will be scarce, the fall and winter months are good times to l ay in a supply, for there is little or no demand for them now and they may be readily available. Put them away for use when you need them. So the home garden program is to be a continuing program . Right now it is a patriotic effort to help raise the food on the home front so that most of the commercial vegetable raisers' produce can go to the boys on the battle fronts. But after the war, home gardening will be continued . The experience being gained under the stress of war contingencies will serve the country well in the postwar period also. Compost is a decayed mixture of soil and organic matter, such as manure and any available plant remains - leaves, lawn clippings, weeds, and crop residues. The soil absorbs the products of decomposition df the organic matter, prevents their loss, helps to give a more desirable texture or consistency to the decayed mass. Compost varies greatly in its composition and physical condition, depending upon the nature of the soil and other materials of which it is made and upon the degree of decomposition. ) J • , • tells how science bas now defeated deafness and made it possible for the hard-of-hearing co enjoy natural sound, understand normal convcr•atioa ••• WEAR It for ONE MONTH on our exclusive rental trial plan.

Arthur Freund, 25-year-old overseas veteran, is typical of the thousands of soldiers who will be given discharge under the point plan, on account of age, or due to dependencies. Like many others, Sergeant Freund would like to have stayed in service until his job was done. He will continue to contribute to war effort on the home front. His war experience will aid him. His wife, Bertha, who lives in Brooklyn, N. Y., was made an invalid by an automobile crash. . Arthur is needed at home to take care of her. He had no choice, and the army, realizing that his greater duty was to his wife, sent him, along with hundreds of others, to Fort Dix, N. J. Separation center areas have been established throughout the Umted States to take care of the 343,000 Yanks who will be discharged in next 30 days.

HOLLY\VOOD Receives Final Instructions WHAT a heritage for Rita Hayworth's baby! Everybody knows, of course, that little Rebecca's mother is one of the most successful and most popular of all our feminine stars, and that her father, Orson Welles is a remarkable young man (too remarkable sometimes!) In many fields-writing, acting, producing. But Rebecca's heritage is a matter of generations famous in the theater. That baby's great-grandfather on the distal! side is the great Antonio Cansino, one of the famous dancers of all time. The story of his life and of the 16 children he begot, and of his grandchildren, is one of the fascmating sagas of the theater. Nearly 70 years ago a 12-year-old boy was left an orphan in a little Spanish village. His father had been a well-to-do land owner; but there were crooked lawyers in Spain even then. as everywhere else, and the boy found himself done out of his inheritance and left penniless to face the world.

Of the east-west roads, the longest is U. S. 6 extending from Provincetown, Mass., to Long Beach, Calif., a distance of 3,652 miles. Of the north-south routes, longest is U. S. 1, from Fort Kent, Maine, to Key West, Fla., a distance of 2,262 miles. Antonio set out for Seville, and there he fount! himself a job as helper to a blacksmith. Little Antonio liked to dance, and to play the guitar. When night came Anton,jo struck out for the water front cafes, and there he danced again-for pennies. At that time the famous Imperia and her rival, La Companara, were having their heyday, and there was a popular male dancer, Fernando Feliz. Young Antonio sneaked into the wings to watch their performances and in time made their acquaintance. He had an ingratiating manner, and before long he was having lessons from all three of them. Along with other men Sergeant Freund bears an orientation talk by camp officer. Insert shows him durin; an interview, during which be Is given expert counseling and assistance for his transition to civilian life. He is explained the G.l. Bill of Rights, benefits of insurance and given employment assistance when desired. His Last Physie;al Examination Starting Up the Ladder All property is checked upon arrival. When the discharged soldier leaves the center he is given one complete outfit. Goes Through Mill Sergeant Freund reports to the medical branch for a . complete and final physical examination. X-rays, dental inspection and complete check-up are part of the regular routine. Each veteran must inform the medical officer of any illness or injury incurred since entry into service. Disability claims are prepared at this time. Given Special Meal A Civilian Is Born So CJt 15 Antonio said goodby to his forge. A theater manager had seen him dance and had recognized a rising star. Within a year Antonio was famous throughout Spain. He had a house of his own, servants and a carriage. At 17 he married. I At 18 he was a father. A London producer happened to be visiting Spain and watched Antomo Cansino at a performance in Madrid. He offered a contract for a month's engagement in London at a figure that couldn't be turned down. The month was extended to a year, and by that time Antonio was reap1 ing a fortune. Paris followed and then tours of Europe and South America. As the Cansino fortune grew, the family was growing, too. At the age of 35 Antonio had no less than 10 children. He was rich and his wife and children wanted him at home. To the chagrin of theatrical managers, he announced his retirement from the stage. get unbroken rest Never Too Young All of the Cansino children were taught to dance by their father almost as soon as they could walk. Young dancers begged Cansino for in!'truction, so he opened a school in Madrid. When Diaghiley took the Ballet Russe to the Spanish capital several of the stars took lessons from Cansino, among them Leonide Massine. The Cansino children all enjoyed great success. They toured Europe, Africa. North and South America, Australia. Edouardo, Rita Hayworth's father, took Latin America by storm. Antonio II was a sensation in Europe and Australia. Jose, Angel, Paco, Elissa, and the others all had their share of triumphs. others who arrive in Proof that he is a citizen-above camp at odd hours of the day and the right pocket of Sergeant night, Sergeant Freund missed reg- Freund's olive drab blouse, has been ular army chow, but he doesn't go placed the honorable discharge emhungry, because the separation cen- blem that certifies honorable and ters provide a special mess for those faitbiul service to his country. fie who arrive late. will be given a discharge button.

Lower, the Honorable Discharge is presented by separation center commander, along with congratulations Qn Sergeant Freund's excellent servIce record. It may be only a single sheet of white paper, a few printed words, and a signature in blue ink, but it represents 26 months of faithful service to the army and an honorable .discharge for Sergeant Freund. It's his entry back into the civilian lite of the nation for which he offered his life. Final Army Duty-Signing Discharge His final job in the army is to sign all papers, place his thumb print on his honorable discharge and then el1eck the clothing that will be issued to him. The government will have a big postwar job, the filing and preserving of the records of more than 10 million members of the armed forces. These records must be in excellent shape, and contain the complete war record of each man. All future claims will be determined b:v the records on discharge day. The task of discharging this vast army has already begun but will not be completed until months after V-J Day. Many men have expressed a desire to remain in service during peacetime. Provisions are being made to permit them to stay in the regular army, navy or marines. At the present time no mass discharge of naval men is being planned. The process of discharging those in the navy, when it gets under way, will be similar to that of the army. New! Quick! Dependable!

Her father and mother have been retired from the stage for some years, and Rita's father is now working at Douglas because he has two sons at the front. And now the first Antonio, the patriarch of them all, is here. He lost house and fortune during the Spanish revolution. And do you know what he's look' ing forward to?

This fnt-soluble vitamin has the distinction of being one of the earlilest vitamins known, and it has sev'eral important functions in the body. Of major importance is its action in preventing night-blindness, which is difficulty in accommodating the eyes to changes in intensity of light. If your diet has been low in vitamin A, you may have difficulty in finding your way in the dark or in distinguishing objects when priving the car at night. Vitamin A helps to keep the epithelial tissues healthy. These are the tissues which line the respiratory passages and the digestive and genito-urinary tracts. · Adcq\iate viI tamin 1\ helps keep the mucous membranes moist and healthy, whereas lack of vitamin A allows •the passages to become dry and more susceptible to penetration by bacteria.

China THE DOG'S SENSE OF SMELL TRULY IS REMARKABLE It's his remarkable sense of smell that gives the dog those unique qualities for which he has been prized through the centuries, states the Gaines Dog Research Center, New York City. In zoology, animals are sometimes divided into two groups-visual a,:11d olfactory animals. Man today is, of course, a visual being; with the assumption of an upright position and the raising of the head from the ground, his olfactory sense has deteriorated. But the dog is first of all 1 an olfactory animal. A dog lives, feels, loves and hates exclusively by its sense of smell. Sever his olfactory nrrves and he loses practically all his 1 canine virtues, such as vigilance, obe1 dience and affection. In his book, "Man in Structure and Function," the German writer Fritz Kahn gives the physical basis which makes the dog a truly olfactory animal. He compares the dog's olfactory mechanism with that of man. He finds that while the olfactory mucous membrane of the human nose is only Qua..,l.ing ILruh1to's drc>am of rrc al lm)Jire w.ll not fim<-h the t.n trd Statt ' j ll) ir: tht 01· c t C!

I want to start the fishermen going out again, so that Adano will have something besides pasta and tomatoes and eggplant to eat. That's all there is to it." "Boss, you're a kid Giuseppe." "Giuseppe, do you want me to get another interpreter?" "Okay, a boss, you're not a kid Giuseppe." "I do want to see the old man. Will you fix that for me?" , "That's what I'm a sorry, boss.

What had previous· Jy been the Italian Port Captain's office was now the office of the American Naval Lieutenant in . charge of harbor facilities at Adano. This was Lieutenant Livingston, who had gone into the Navy's V-7 ~· program early in the war, and had entered on his application blank as one of his main qualifications to be -= an officer and a gentleman: "Have had experience with small boats." This experience, as a matter of fact, consisted of rowing on the crew at Kent Srhool and at Yale. At Yale, Crofts Livingston was known as a fellow who would do anything for you if h<.> liked you, but he was rather choosy in his friends. Lieutenant Livingston had not yet decided to like Major Joppolo. The Major had not gone to either Kent or Yale. There was a rumor around that he had once been some kind of clerk in the New York City government under Walker and O'Brien. Lieutenant Livingston was inclined to the opinion that it was too bad the Army had sent such. a meatball to be administrator of a town like Adano. And besides, when the Major saw a Navy officer wearing two bars, which anyone ought to know stood for Lieutenant Senior Grade, Major Joppolo would address him as Captain. "Hello, Captain," the Major said when he walked into Lieutenant Livingston's office, "can I use your phone?" "Good morning," the Lieutenant "The Major will be very angry it said, "what are you doing down you do not stop right here." here?" The tone of the Lieutenant's no,' " shouted people in the front Kent-Yale voice indica ted that he of the crowd. thought the Army ought to stay on "Amazing," shouted the ones in Army ground, and let the Navy stay back. on Navy shore.

"I see you gave your hired crowd their instructions," he said. Live the Mister Major!" The people in back shouted: "Go ahead, take me, what have I to lose?" "What did he say?" Major Joppolo said: "They will The people in front shouted: "He thinks we ought to have fish for all go home soon, Tomasino. I have given instructions for them to be our hunger."

(TO BE CONTINUED) And he jumped down on the mole fJt!fei , "See, Fidol Like thisl" ---- - pe." And so it happened that another precedent was broken in Adano. Never in the memory of anyone in the town had an official gone calling on a citizen on business. Either t11e citizen had come willingly to the J'alazzo, or else the citizen had been arrested, and had come against his will. Between the time of this conversation and three o'clock, Giuseppe told several people about this amazing ftexibility on the part of the Major. And therefore when it came time for them to go down to the port looking for old Tomasino, quite a large crowd had gathered in front of the Palazzo, and the crowd followed the Major and Giuseppe as they walked. "Where do these people think they're going?" the Major asked Giuseppe. "Just a bunch a busybody," Giuseppe said. The Major turned around. "Go home, you people," he said in Italian. "Don't you have anything better to do at three in the afternoon?" But the people kept right on following Giuseppe and th<.> Major. Giuseppe led the Major, and therefore the crowd, down to the harbor and past the stone pier, past the sulphur loading jetties, past the patent slips, past the Molo Martino to the Molo di Ponente, where the fishing boats were tied up. The Major sensed that he was going to have a tough time with old Tomasino, so he said to Giuseppe: "Interpreter, unless you keep this crowd well back, you will lose your job." "What is an interpreter to us," people said, "when we have a chance to see something new in Adano? . . . This has never happened before . . . What is the unemployment of one man?" And they kept moving forward. Giuseppe shouted: "The Major will be very angry if you do not stop right here." And then he added softly: "Let us make a deal. U you stop, I will listen to the conversation, and I will tell you what is said." On this basis the crowd was willing to stop. By this time, Major Joppolo had come to the boat of old Tomasino. He recognized the boat not only by the fact that there was a moroselooking man sitting on the afterdeck, but also by the illuminated inscription, with its letters trailing off into leaves and fruits, just under the eye-piece of the bow: Tina. The Major jumped up onto the ~ow. "All right, man of authority," said the morose man, "arrest me." "I haven't come to arrest you, f:omasino," the Major said. Giuseppe came running up to listen. He stayed on the mole, so that he could commute easily between actors and audience. "Why are you wearing your pistol?" the morose man said. "Shoot me, go ahead, shoot me." "I always wear my pistol, Tomasino," the Major said. "You have come to arrest me because I refus~d to go and see the American Major," the morose man said. "That is not true," the Major said. "Then why have you brought this informer, Ribaudo Giuseppe, who asked me to go see the American Major, and to whom I refused?" "I am the American Major, Tomasino." Tomasino did not bat ·an eye.

Rugs i"l c-onstant use should be thoroughly clN ned at least once a week. Occasionally the backs should receive attention also, for dirt and insects tend to work through the rug so they cannot be picked up by surface cleaning. Vacuum cleaning IS the easiest way to clean a rug. Moved m long strokes crosswise on the rug, a vacuum cleaner picks up insects, crumbs and dirt with a minimum of wear on the pile. Remember to empty the vacuum bag each time after using, for the cl~aner operates cfticH.mtly only if the bag is dustfree. If a broom must be used, be sure the straws are soft and pliable. An energetic homemaker, who jabs at her rul.{s with a stiff stubby broom docs them more harm than good. Rugs should not be beaten or shakE'n. for :.his loosens the tufts. In addition to careful cleaning, years may be added to the life of a rug by using a pad under it, especially if the floc 1rs are rough or uneven. Put glass furniture rests under thc> legs of all heavy furniture, and make sure that doors do not scrape the rugs.

Efficient Tub A bathtub that fills quickly and empties quickly is high on the list of things that postwar home builders want. The chief advantage of a tub that fills quickly and empties quickly is the saving in time. Another important advantage, howevr er, is the fact that water which flows through the drain piping at high velocity will carry solids with it, thus scouring the drain and tending to keep the pipes clean. For rapid filling of a tub, the hot and cold lines leading to the fixture should be at least one-half inch in diameter and the spout should be one inch in diameter. With these specifications, providing water pressure is adequate, the bath will fill quickly and the water wil~ not splash or gurgle. To insure quick draining of the fixture, the waste in the tub should be two inches in diameter and the oattom of the tub should be perfectly smooth and unimpeded by corrugations.

' Turkey Eggs Turkey eggs may one day sell as chicken eggs sell today, and be used for cooking in both homes and restaurants. Some of the small-type turkeys developed by the department of agriculture are much heavier than the average large turkey. As more of these small turkeys are raised, growers. may have s11rplus eggs that could be marketed. Because th 'Se smaller turkeys require less fet·d than larger turkeys they are more economical egg producers. Heavy-laying, even smaller turkeys could be developed if there should be a demand for them. There is little diflerence in the two kinds of eggs. They taste the same, and thl' whites and yolks are the snme in color. Weight for weight, they have about equal nutritive value. The yolk of a turkey egg is slightly firmer so holds itl!l shape well in poaching. At present most turkey eggs are needed for hatching.

CRETE. ILL. With Lee G.IHiller in the Pacific: ..---Your 1915 Garden-----. I ? An Old Friend Talc"es Up Where Ernie Pyle Left Off Lauds Famed War Correspondent For Loyalty to His Following By LEE G. MILLER MANILA- (by wireless) - . They've asked me to take over Ernie Pyle's column. I have agreed to try it, though with misgivings. I'm not going to try to "write like Ernie." All I can do is write like Miller. If occasionally something pops out that looks as if I were consciously imitating Ernie's way of writing, please bear in mind that he and I worked together almost constantly since 1923 when we both got jobs on the Washington Daily News. Such long association is apt to result in some similarities of thought and mannerism. Light Supper Is Cooling on a Hot Night <See Recipes Below) Keep Kitchens Cool Nothing makes the family's appetite wane quite so quickly as a meal that makes the ~ ...... house uncomfortably warm dur, ~)) ing hot weather. ,L A cool and comfortable room, set ~ with a table that suggests coolness, 1 will be much more comfortable all the way around. Mother would do best to plan a meal that is nourishing but not too hearty. The main dish and vegetables )nay be warm, but dessert and salad should be icy cold to suggest that summer was kept in mind during the planning of the menu. If the bulk of the actual cooking is done during the cool mornings, then the kitchen can retain some semblance of coolness during the evening hours. Such things as cooking filling for pies, making cookies or cake or cooking vegetables for a salad can be prepared before the sun rises high in the sky and sends the temperature to the highest rungs of the thermometer. Main entrees, if broiled, will also help during hot weather. They take 1only a few mintjtes to cook, like this /low-point grill: Hamburger Grill. (Serves 6) 1 pound ham burger onion, grated, if desired 1 teaspoon salt % teaspoon pepper 4 sliees bacon 2 large bananas 1 tablespoon lemon juice Combine meat, onion, salt and pepper. Mix well. Form into 4 cakes about lk inch thick. Arrange strips of r bacon on broiling rack. Broil slowly until brown, turning when necessary. Drain on unglazed paper while other food 'broils. Arrange meat cakes on rack. Brush bananas with lemon juice and place alongside meat. Broil until !meat is browned. To serve, arrange hamburgers on individual serving plates. Top each with a -strip of bacon and place broiled ba.nana slice at each side. Potato chips and tomato cucumber salad may be served with the grill. Chicken is delectable when cooked a Ia king, but it's invitingly cool when served molded. Then it can be sliced and served garnished with quartered hard-boiled eggs and to.Inato wedges: Molded Chicken a Ia King. 1 (Serves 8) -4 tablespoons butter or substitute ~4 cup chopped green pepper lh cup sliced mushrooms 1 cup milk, scalded lh cup hot chicken stock ~ cup chopped pimiento 1 cup diced cooked chicken 4 egg yolks 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 tablespoon gelatin 2 tablespoons cold water * Lynn Says Perfect Salads: You'll like oranges sliced or sectioned and rolled in shredded coconut on lettuce cups. Peach or apricot halves placed on top of shredded cabbage which is rich in vitamin C is a delightful salad for hot weather eating. Blend mayonnaise with peach juice or sour cream for a really smooth dressing. Odd bits of meat go well riding the tops of vegetable sal ads. Shred or cube them and extend with bits of cheese, if necessary. Thousand Is land dressing which is so excellent on quarters of chilled lettuce is even better if it has a few wedges of meaty ripe olives in it. Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menus *Hamburger Grill with Bananas and Bacon Jellied Vegetable Aspic Green Beans Cream-Cheese-Whole-WheatBread Sandwiches Beverage Lemon Chiffon Pie Melt butter or substitute. Then add green pepper and mushrooms and cook slowly until tender but not browned. Blend in milk, stock, pimiento and chicken. Beat egg yolks, add lemon juice and pour a little of the liquid over the chicken mixture, stirring constantly. Stir egg yolks into the rest of the chicken mixture and cook over boiling water for 5 minutes, still stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add gelatin which has been soaked in cold water for 5 minutes. Turn into a mold and chill until set. Unmold and garnish with hard-cooked eggs quartered, tomato wedges and parsley. One of the important points in cooking fish '1s to avoid overcooking. Here is a dish that can be turned out in less than half an hour: Mackerel With Bacon and Onions. (Serves 4) %. pound cleaned .fillets of mackerel Salt and pepper 1 cup sliced onions 4 tablespoons butter or drippings cup soft bread crumbs 2 slices crisp bacon, broiled Separate fillets and arrange in greased, shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Saute onions gently in butter until tender but not browned. Turn out on fish, sprinkle with crumbs and top with bacon. Bake in a hot ( 400-degree) oven until fish is done and crumbs are browned, about 15 minutes. Hot evenings sometimes call for hearty main dish salads. Use a good protein food as a base so that it will be nourishing enough even for so-o big a ppetites. Here are two good suggestions: Baked Bean and Egg Salad. (Serves 6) 1 medium sized can of baked beans 4 sweet pickles, chopped 3 hard-cooked eggs, sliced (reserve 6 slices for garnishing) ¥2 cup chopped celery 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion 1 teaspoon salt 3 to 4 tablespoons mayonnaise Chill beans until cold. Add the remaining ingredients in order given, mixing carefully. Arrange on nests of lettuce and garnish with sliced, hard-cooked egg and parsley. Salmon Salad. (Serves 6 to 8) 6 hard-cooked eggs 1 pound salmon, cooked or canned, shredded 1 medium green pepper, chopped % cnp shredded cabbage cup chopped celery 2 tablespoons grated onion 12 slices chopped sweet pickle 3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard 2 tablespoons vinegar 2 teaspoons sugar 1 tablespoon salt ~ teaspoon pepper After salmon is shredded mix with chopped egg whites, green pepper, cabbage and celery, grated onion and pickles. Mash the egg yolks and blend well with mustard, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Combine the two mixtures, blending thoroughly. Serve in cups of lettuce, garnished with radishes and whole slices of pickle. French Fried Shrimp. (Serves 6) 2 cups corn flakes 1 egg, slightly beaten 2 cups cooked jumbo shrimp Roll corn flakes into fine crumbs. Dip shrimp in egg and then in. cornflake crumbs.

What I'm driving at is this: I will feel miserable if people get the idea I have the impertinence to aspire to fill Ernie's shoes. Maybe I can fill the space where his copy has run, but I'm fully aware that nobody will ever fill the place that Ernie won in the thoughts and hearts of so many millions of Lee G. Miller Americans. Other correspondents are always trying to figure out the reason for Ernie's great success. I don't know that I have the right answer to that one. But my guess is that the basic reason was quite simple-that Ernie was a very competent craftsman, skilled from those years he devoted as a desk man to polishing the copy of other people, and-this is more important-he had a warmth about him, and an understanding of people. He used to say of certain friends that there was "a harmony" between them and there came to be a "harmony" between Ernie and, the Lord only knows why, many people who were actually complete strangers to him, but who regarded him as a personal friend. It was that friendship of those unknown readers that drove Ernie to his death. Perhaps it will sound mawkish to put it in words, but it is a fact that he felt he couldn't reject the responsibility imposed by the devotion of those strangers who were his friends. He forced himself, against the advice of friends and against his own gnawing fear of death, to go back into action. Took His Chances With the Rest ,. Commander Vic Blakeslee of the navy was here the other night. He was with Ernie on Guam. He said he pleaded with Ernie not go to ashore with the troops in the Ryukyus. 1 ' He was looking pale and tired," Vic said. "I tried to tell him he was too useful a citizen to take chances with his life. I told him he was surely going to get killed if he kept on pressing his luck. But his mind was made up and I couldn't do anything about it." It may be that Ernie was getting self-conscious. I mean he had become such a celebrity that he was treated like royalty wherever he went: Special favors were showered on him. The big shots curried him. And I suspect that he had an uncomfortable feeling about all thisa feeling that this was very nice but it wasn't his way, that he had to get back where he belonged, with the troops. I said long ago that if Ernie ever got killed I'd go home at once and try to write a biography of him. It ought to be done. But it looks as if I'll have to stay overseas a while. Maybe Lt. Comdr. Max Miller, author of "I Cover the Waterfront" and many other books, would do a biography of Ernie. Max loved him, and Max was with him for weeks in the Pacific. But nobody ought to write a book about Ernie without Jerry's help. Jerry is Ernie's wife-"That Girl" he used to mention in his column. If Jerry were in better h ealth she ought to write a book herself. She knew Ernie far better than anybody else ever did. She writes beautifully. But J erry hasn't been well these past few years, and now that the thing has happened that she dreaded during those lonely days and 1 years in Albuquerque-well, I guess it's out of the question. If Max or somebody does write a book about Ernie, it ought to be the whole story, not just a gilded "suecess story" or a Parson Weems fable. Maybe John Steinbeck would do it, or Ernie's old friend Paige Cavanaugh, or Milton Mackaye or Dorathy Disney or any one of many writing people who were Ernie's close friends. But let them picture the • whole man. Ernie was no cardboard saint. He u1>ed bad words sometimes. He drank sometimes. It was fun for him to relax with friends over a few highballs. Any biographer of Ernie should go to Indiana and talk 'to Ernie's fathe r and his Aunt Mary, and to his schoolmates at Indiana university. He ought to talk to people who worked with him in the old days in Washington when we were young and carefree and Ernie met Jerry. And with some of the old aviation crowd who used to gather at Ernie's and Jerry's place at 456 N St. S. W., in Washington-! think that was the number-and talk shop or sweat out the disappearance of a mail pilot. It ought to be a careful job, not a slapdash thing to "catch the market." I don't think Ernie is going to be forgotten in a hurry. Quench ThiTSt By Helmetful11 We jeeped northward through Manila, up crowded Rizal avenue with its hundreds of tiny shops and its sidewalks aswarm with Filipinos and sight-seeing soldiers and sailors. Out past the quaintly beautiful Chinese cemetery with its pagodaed shrines, past the Balintewok brewery in the city's outskirts where conquering doughfoots paused in Februa ry to quench their thirst by the helmetfuls. And on up the concrete highway, between rice fields, over the Meccano-like Bailey bridges and other bridges of timber that our engineers had installed alongside the misshapen wrecks of prewar spans. We paused from time to time to let a carabao lumbe r across the road to his wallow, or to let an MP check our trip ticket, or to sit out ~ congestion caused by slow-moving Filipino vehicles drawn by undersized horses or plodding water buffalo. We veered to the right, eastward of Mount Arayat, which rears in lorlely grandeur from the fertile plain. As darkness fell the rain started, gently at first but finally in torrential bucketfuls against which the jeep top was as useless as cheesecloth. We came upon a stalled truckful of dripping soldiers, and g.av€ them a tow. Three times their motor got started and we stopped to undo the tow rope, but three times their engine sputtered out again. After some miles it got going properly and we drove on unencumbered through the dowppour, which by now was getting chill. Finally we reached the division' s rear echelon headquarters, where we wolfed some cheese, bread and coffee, got into dry underwear and hit the sack in a comfortable billet. The next morning we drove on to the division command post and were getting settled in a pyramidal tent when batteries of 155 mm. Long Toms a'nd 240 howitzers, emplace1 almost within spitting distance, began their morning calisthenics with blasts that rippled the tent. At the G2 tent, Lt. Col. Jay D. Vanderpool, who is only 28, gave us the best briefing I'd ever had, tracing the progress of the division on an excellent r elief map. Brig. Gen. James L . ("Dusty") Dalton dropped by for a talk. He turned out to be a West Point class mate and brother-in-law of my friend Col. Dodd Starbird, who he believed was now with General Patton. (I had just finished writing thisthree days after that conversationwhen a soldier brought word that a Jap sniper had killed General Dalton, of whom more later.) I went around to pay my respects to the division commanding general, Maj. Gen. Charles L. Mullins Jr., a West Pointer whose wife lives in Losolivos, Calif. General Mullins knew Ernie Pyle. That was years ago when Ernie and Jerry were touring Central America and Mullins was establishing a military academy for Nicaragua. Ernie wrote a piece about him. Yanks Find Colonel Hayashi Tough Customer The men of this division are piqued because somehow people seem to regard the campaign for Balete pass as part and parcel of the recent drive for Baguio, the Philippine summer capital. Baguio is only 35 miles away as the crow flies, but tactically speaking it might almost be on another island. Baguio fell weeks ago. Balete pass wasn't pronounced officially secured until the day I arrived here. This is mountain fighting, ridge by ridge, against a J ap who is a master at defensive exploitation of such terrain. The J ap is Colonel Hayashi, the same Hayashi who when the first cavalry trapped him in Santo Tomas internment camp at Manila February 3, used Ameri1~an hostages to bargain a safe exit for himself and his men. 1i I t~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Corn post Needed I~ To Insure Good I~ Ves·etable Growth All( ME ANOTHER A General Quiz • !~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SEVERAL hardy vegetables will withstand frosts and even freezes and thus may become a part of the fall garden. P lantings of these vegetables in August, September and October and in some sections of the country, even later, may be made and still harvest a crop. They include beets, collards, kale, lettuce. mustard, spinach and turnips. In these months too, it is time to look forward to next year's garden. It is a good time to start that compost pile and have it ready for the spring plantm• ing. It is a good time to spade up 1 that portion of your garden for the very early plantings next year. It is time to sow a cover crop for the winter which is a very good practice. These cover crops may include clover, rye, wheat or some other such crop, but 1t is advisable to consult your local county agent or agricultural college to determine the most profitable winter cover in your own locality. Have you proper storage facilities for your surplus root crops such as potatoes, beets, carrots, parsnips? If not, now is the time to get busy. ' If you do not have a proper base1 ment in your home, that is one that remains cool enough to properly store the vegetables, consult your county agent about this too. He will be able to advise you how to store these vegetables economically so that they will remain in good condition throughout the winter. These fall months too will give you time to burn diseased residue of your crops for it is not a good thing to let them lie about the place and be overlooked in the spring. The successful gardener, after his harvest, can also take stock of his experience during the season to determine what vegetables.he will not plant next year. Too much stress cannot be placed upon the importance of that compost pile, particularly in the towns and cities where organic matter is not readily available to improve the soil and workability of the garden plot. In the fall when leaves and dried lawn clippings and other dry grasses are readily at hand, it does not require too much work to throw these materials into a flat pile, alternate with layers of dirt. The dirt layers should be two to three inches thick with the gr;iss and GAft 0 EN VICTORY The Questions I. What President popularized the fireside? 2.

Rubber contracts and ripples Into on unstretched slate in much the same way as on earthworm moves across tho 'urfaco of tho ground. From April 1, 1942, to August 31, 1944, the total amount of natural rubber imported into the United Statea was 214,148 long tons. India and Africa supplied 35.3%; 31.90/o came from latin America, and 15.3o/o from liberia. The re• maining 17.5o/o came from 1hlpmenta in transit when •ourcea were lost to Japan, Busses now corry more than half the total number of persons trans~ ported by Intercity public carrion In the Unit•d States, The result of a well-planned garden, filled shelves. leaves or other vegetation approximately twice that thick. Generous handfuls of commercial fertilizer should be thrown over the vegetation to aid in its proper decomposition. The gardener will find that next spring his compost will enable him to garden more successfully and easier and that it will be well worth the added labor. I Winter Care of Tools Important Now is the time also to see that tools are properly put away, that they are free from soil. The spade and hoe can be sharpened ready to use when spring spading time comes. If there is any. indication that fertilizer or insecticides or fungicides will be scarce, the fall and winter months are good times to l ay in a supply, for there is little or no demand for them now and they may be readily available. Put them away for use when you need them. So the home garden program is to be a continuing program . Right now it is a patriotic effort to help raise the food on the home front so that most of the commercial vegetable raisers' produce can go to the boys on the battle fronts. But after the war, home gardening will be continued . The experience being gained under the stress of war contingencies will serve the country well in the postwar period also. Compost is a decayed mixture of soil and organic matter, such as manure and any available plant remains - leaves, lawn clippings, weeds, and crop residues. The soil absorbs the products of decomposition df the organic matter, prevents their loss, helps to give a more desirable texture or consistency to the decayed mass. Compost varies greatly in its composition and physical condition, depending upon the nature of the soil and other materials of which it is made and upon the degree of decomposition. ) J • , • tells how science bas now defeated deafness and made it possible for the hard-of-hearing co enjoy natural sound, understand normal convcr•atioa ••• WEAR It for ONE MONTH on our exclusive rental trial plan.

Everybody knows, of course, that little Rebecca's mother is one of the most successful and most popular of all our feminine stars, and that her father, Orson Welles is a remarkable young man (too remarkable sometimes!) In many fields-writing, acting, producing. But Rebecca's heritage is a matter of generations famous in the theater. That baby's great-grandfather on the distal! side is the great Antonio Cansino, one of the famous dancers of all time. The story of his life and of the 16 children he begot, and of his grandchildren, is one of the fascmating sagas of the theater. Nearly 70 years ago a 12-year-old boy was left an orphan in a little Spanish village. His father had been a well-to-do land owner; but there were crooked lawyers in Spain even then. as everywhere else, and the boy found himself done out of his inheritance and left penniless to face the world.

Of the east-west roads, the longest is U. S. 6 extending from Provincetown, Mass., to Long Beach, Calif., a distance of 3,652 miles. Of the north-south routes, longest is U. S. 1, from Fort Kent, Maine, to Key West, Fla., a distance of 2,262 miles. Antonio set out for Seville, and there he fount! himself a job as helper to a blacksmith. Little Antonio liked to dance, and to play the guitar. When night came Anton,jo struck out for the water front cafes, and there he danced again-for pennies. At that time the famous Imperia and her rival, La Companara, were having their heyday, and there was a popular male dancer, Fernando Feliz. Young Antonio sneaked into the wings to watch their performances and in time made their acquaintance. He had an ingratiating manner, and before long he was having lessons from all three of them.

Within a year Antonio was famous throughout Spain. He had a house of his own, servants and a carriage. At 17 he married. I At 18 he was a father. A London producer happened to be visiting Spain and watched Antomo Cansino at a performance in Madrid. He offered a contract for a month's engagement in London at a figure that couldn't be turned down. The month was extended to a year, and by that time Antonio was reap1 ing a fortune. Paris followed and then tours of Europe and South America. As the Cansino fortune grew, the family was growing, too. At the age of 35 Antonio had no less than 10 children. He was rich and his wife and children wanted him at home. To the chagrin of theatrical managers, he announced his retirement from the stage. get unbroken rest Never Too Young All of the Cansino children were taught to dance by their father almost as soon as they could walk. Young dancers begged Cansino for in!'truction, so he opened a school in Madrid. When Diaghiley took the Ballet Russe to the Spanish capital several of the stars took lessons from Cansino, among them Leonide Massine. The Cansino children all enjoyed great success. They toured Europe, Africa. North and South America, Australia. Edouardo, Rita Hayworth's father, took Latin America by storm. Antonio II was a sensation in Europe and Australia. Jose, Angel, Paco, Elissa, and the others all had their share of triumphs. others who arrive in Proof that he is a citizen-above camp at odd hours of the day and the right pocket of Sergeant night, Sergeant Freund missed reg- Freund's olive drab blouse, has been ular army chow, but he doesn't go placed the honorable discharge emhungry, because the separation cen- blem that certifies honorable and ters provide a special mess for those faitbiul service to his country. fie who arrive late. will be given a discharge button. Sheet of Paper and a Signature The big moment he has been waiting for arrives. Sergeant Freund, top, is shown with his final papers, which he must sign. They include his discharge certificate and separation qualification record, which he will find need for in years to come. Center, another big moment. Final payday has arrived. He receives his discharge button, service and honor medals and ribbons and all pay due him from the army, including the first SlOO of his mustering out pay. Having served overseas he will rel'eive S300 mustering out pay in all. Lower, the Honorable Discharge is presented by separation center commander, along with congratulations Qn Sergeant Freund's excellent servIce record. It may be only a single sheet of white paper, a few printed words, and a signature in blue ink, but it represents 26 months of faithful service to the army and an honorable .discharge for Sergeant Freund. It's his entry back into the civilian lite of the nation for which he offered his life. Final Army Duty-Signing Discharge His final job in the army is to sign all papers, place his thumb print on his honorable discharge and then el1eck the clothing that will be issued to him. The government will have a big postwar job, the filing and preserving of the records of more than 10 million members of the armed forces. These records must be in excellent shape, and contain the complete war record of each man. All future claims will be determined b:v the records on discharge day. The task of discharging this vast army has already begun but will not be completed until months after V-J Day. Many men have expressed a desire to remain in service during peacetime. Provisions are being made to permit them to stay in the regular army, navy or marines. At the present time no mass discharge of naval men is being planned. The process of discharging those in the navy, when it gets under way, will be similar to that of the army. New! Quick! Dependable!

California, Here We Come When Rita was 16 she came to California with her parents, the Edouardo Cansinos. The movie bug got her, but good. She danced and played bit parts in dozens of pictures, and then came her big chance in "Blood and Sand," opposite Tyrone Power. You know the rest of that story. Her father and mother have been retired from the stage for some years, and Rita's father is now working at Douglas because he has two sons at the front. And now the first Antonio, the patriarch of them all, is here. He lost house and fortune during the Spanish revolution. And do you know what he's look' ing forward to? You guessed it-it's the day when little Rebecca is big enot•gh to take her first dancing lesson from her great-granddaddy. Did I say that baby has a heritage! And did I say there's a movie in the histoire Cansino? All right, I i leave it to you - and to the first sn1art producer that gets the 1 same idea. • • • 1 And Why Not? When Joe E.

This fnt-soluble vitamin has the distinction of being one of the earlilest vitamins known, and it has sev'eral important functions in the body. Of major importance is its action in preventing night-blindness, which is difficulty in accommodating the eyes to changes in intensity of light. If your diet has been low in vitamin A, you may have difficulty in finding your way in the dark or in distinguishing objects when priving the car at night.

China THE DOG'S SENSE OF SMELL TRULY IS REMARKABLE It's his remarkable sense of smell that gives the dog those unique qualities for which he has been prized through the centuries, states the Gaines Dog Research Center, New York City. In zoology, animals are sometimes divided into two groups-visual a,:11d olfactory animals. Man today is, of course, a visual being; with the assumption of an upright position and the raising of the head from the ground, his olfactory sense has deteriorated. But the dog is first of all 1 an olfactory animal. A dog lives, feels, loves and hates exclusively by its sense of smell. Sever his olfactory nrrves and he loses practically all his 1 canine virtues, such as vigilance, obe1 dience and affection. In his book, "Man in Structure and Function," the German writer Fritz Kahn gives the physical basis which makes the dog a truly olfactory animal. He compares the dog's olfactory mechanism with that of man. He finds that while the olfactory mucous membrane of the human nose is only Qua..,l.ing ILruh1to's drc>am of rrc al lm)Jire w.ll not fim<-h the t.n trd Statt ' j ll) ir: tht 01· c t C!

I want to start the fishermen going out again, so that Adano will have something besides pasta and tomatoes and eggplant to eat. That's all there is to it." "Boss, you're a kid Giuseppe." "Giuseppe, do you want me to get another interpreter?" "Okay, a boss, you're not a kid Giuseppe." "I do want to see the old man. Will you fix that for me?" , "That's what I'm a sorry, boss. "What do you mean?" "Tina's old a man Tomasino no want a see you, a boss." "Why not? Did you say something about my wanting to go out with his daughter?" "Oh no, a boss.

What had previous· Jy been the Italian Port Captain's office was now the office of the American Naval Lieutenant in . charge of harbor facilities at Adano. This was Lieutenant Livingston, who had gone into the Navy's V-7 ~· program early in the war, and had entered on his application blank as one of his main qualifications to be -= an officer and a gentleman: "Have had experience with small boats." This experience, as a matter of fact, consisted of rowing on the crew at Kent Srhool and at Yale. At Yale, Crofts Livingston was known as a fellow who would do anything for you if h<.> liked you, but he was rather choosy in his friends. Lieutenant Livingston had not yet decided to like Major Joppolo. The Major had not gone to either Kent or Yale. There was a rumor around that he had once been some kind of clerk in the New York City government under Walker and O'Brien. Lieutenant Livingston was inclined to the opinion that it was too bad the Army had sent such. a meatball to be administrator of a town like Adano. And besides, when the Major saw a Navy officer wearing two bars, which anyone ought to know stood for Lieutenant Senior Grade, Major Joppolo would address him as Captain. "Hello, Captain," the Major said when he walked into Lieutenant Livingston's office, "can I use your phone?" "Good morning," the Lieutenant "The Major will be very angry it said, "what are you doing down you do not stop right here." here?" The tone of the Lieutenant's no,' " shouted people in the front Kent-Yale voice indica ted that he of the crowd. thought the Army ought to stay on "Amazing," shouted the ones in Army ground, and let the Navy stay back. on Navy shore.

"I see you gave your hired crowd their instructions," he said. Live the Mister Major!" The people in back shouted: "Go ahead, take me, what have I to lose?" "What did he say?" Major Joppolo said: "They will The people in front shouted: "He thinks we ought to have fish for all go home soon, Tomasino. I have given instructions for them to be our hunger." The whole crowd shouted then: sent home. Now, about the fishing. Do you think you could get together "Live the Mister Major r" Tomasino on the boat h<.>ard this, crews for five or six boats?"

(TO BE CONTINUED) And he jumped down on the mole fJt!fei , "See, Fidol Like thisl" ---- - pe." And so it happened that another precedent was broken in Adano. Never in the memory of anyone in the town had an official gone calling on a citizen on business. Either t11e citizen had come willingly to the J'alazzo, or else the citizen had been arrested, and had come against his will. Between the time of this conversation and three o'clock, Giuseppe told several people about this amazing ftexibility on the part of the Major. And therefore when it came time for them to go down to the port looking for old Tomasino, quite a large crowd had gathered in front of the Palazzo, and the crowd followed the Major and Giuseppe as they walked. "Where do these people think they're going?" the Major asked Giuseppe. "Just a bunch a busybody," Giuseppe said. The Major turned around. "Go home, you people," he said in Italian. "Don't you have anything better to do at three in the afternoon?" But the people kept right on following Giuseppe and th<.> Major. Giuseppe led the Major, and therefore the crowd, down to the harbor and past the stone pier, past the sulphur loading jetties, past the patent slips, past the Molo Martino to the Molo di Ponente, where the fishing boats were tied up. The Major sensed that he was going to have a tough time with old Tomasino, so he said to Giuseppe: "Interpreter, unless you keep this crowd well back, you will lose your job." "What is an interpreter to us," people said, "when we have a chance to see something new in Adano? . . . This has never happened before . . . What is the unemployment of one man?" And they kept moving forward. Giuseppe shouted: "The Major will be very angry if you do not stop right here." And then he added softly: "Let us make a deal. U you stop, I will listen to the conversation, and I will tell you what is said." On this basis the crowd was willing to stop. By this time, Major Joppolo had come to the boat of old Tomasino. He recognized the boat not only by the fact that there was a moroselooking man sitting on the afterdeck, but also by the illuminated inscription, with its letters trailing off into leaves and fruits, just under the eye-piece of the bow: Tina. The Major jumped up onto the ~ow. "All right, man of authority," said the morose man, "arrest me." "I haven't come to arrest you, f:omasino," the Major said. Giuseppe came running up to listen. He stayed on the mole, so that he could commute easily between actors and audience. "Why are you wearing your pistol?" the morose man said. "Shoot me, go ahead, shoot me." "I always wear my pistol, Tomasino," the Major said. "You have come to arrest me because I refus~d to go and see the American Major," the morose man said. "That is not true," the Major said. "Then why have you brought this informer, Ribaudo Giuseppe, who asked me to go see the American Major, and to whom I refused?" "I am the American Major, Tomasino." Tomasino did not bat ·an eye.

Rugs i"l c-onstant use should be thoroughly clN ned at least once a week. Occasionally the backs should receive attention also, for dirt and insects tend to work through the rug so they cannot be picked up by surface cleaning. Vacuum cleaning IS the easiest way to clean a rug. Moved m long strokes crosswise on the rug, a vacuum cleaner picks up insects, crumbs and dirt with a minimum of wear on the pile. Remember to empty the vacuum bag each time after using, for the cl~aner operates cfticH.mtly only if the bag is dustfree. If a broom must be used, be sure the straws are soft and pliable. An energetic homemaker, who jabs at her rul.{s with a stiff stubby broom docs them more harm than good. Rugs should not be beaten or shakE'n. for :.his loosens the tufts. In addition to careful cleaning, years may be added to the life of a rug by using a pad under it, especially if the floc 1rs are rough or uneven. Put glass furniture rests under thc> legs of all heavy furniture, and make sure that doors do not scrape the rugs.

Efficient Tub A bathtub that fills quickly and empties quickly is high on the list of things that postwar home builders want. The chief advantage of a tub that fills quickly and empties quickly is the saving in time. Another important advantage, howevr er, is the fact that water which flows through the drain piping at high velocity will carry solids with it, thus scouring the drain and tending to keep the pipes clean. For rapid filling of a tub, the hot and cold lines leading to the fixture should be at least one-half inch in diameter and the spout should be one inch in diameter. With these specifications, providing water pressure is adequate, the bath will fill quickly and the water wil~ not splash or gurgle. To insure quick draining of the fixture, the waste in the tub should be two inches in diameter and the oattom of the tub should be perfectly smooth and unimpeded by corrugations.

Chill before serving. Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menus Supper Thoughts: When you are having cold cuts and a substantial salad as main interest for supper, have something hot in the way of a quick bread just out of the oven . Good suggestions include these that bake quickly: corn bread, whole wheat biscuits, prune muffins and orange marmalade rolls. A freezer of homemade ice cream is a welcome treat at outdoors suppers. Try some flavored with fresh berries or apricots, and be sure to have the cookie jar handy. Doll up your garden party supper salads with plenty of relishes such as olives, pickles, radish roses and carrot sticks. They make for nice nibbling. Bring out the checked cloths and paper napkins, old-fashioned jugs for flowers, and picnic utensils for under-the-trees eating. They go with the atmosphere. STAB ILIZE'R WITH 25TH DIVISION, AT BALETE PASS, LUZON.-Jim Head used to hunt with falcons in Saudi Arabia. Now he hunts with war dogs on Luzon. And this time it's not birds he's hunting but Japs. I was chewing the rag with him here. A German shepherd named Captain lay under the co~ on which Head sat. Somebody tossed a c1garette on the floor Without putting it out. Head spoke softly: "Captain!" The dog emerged and stood attentively. "Put out the cigarette," said Head. Captain sniffed and looked around, spotted the smoking butt, slapped a paw on it, and the deed was done. Captain has other tricks, but Head emphasizes that this stuff is extracurricular and has nothing to do with the war-dog business. Head - First Lt. James S. Head, Lee G. Miller Carlyle, Ill. - is commanding officer of the 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon. His outfit came overseas in June of '44 and saw action at Biak, Aitape and Morotai before coming to Luzon, where it has been working with the 25th or "Tropic Lightning" division around Balete pass. Jim brought 31 dogs to the Pacific. Now there are only 12. Three have been killed-two of them by grenades in the Balete fighting. Most of the other losses have been due to shellshock. "Dogs are very sensitive to artillery," Jim said. "We usually give a shellshocked dog to some outfit further back, as a mascot." A war dog can detect enemy soldiers as far as 800 yards away if the wind is right, Jim said. The dogs are specialists-some serving as scouts with patrols, some as messengers. They have carried battle messages as far as three miles here. They are also used in sentry duty. "We've run more than 700 patrols," Jim said. "Until we came to Luzon we had never had a patrol that was accompanied by a dog fired on unexpectedly. Up here it has been tougher. The wind currents in these mountains are tricky. I've had five men wounded, all m the Balete area." Some infantry officers have a high regard for the war dogs' work. Oth' ers aren't "believers," Jim ex1 plained. Most of the dogs were donated to the army quartermaster corps. The dog col'ps is a quartermaster unit, but those elements sent to this theater have been transferred to the infantry. So Head and his men were entitled to wear the combat infantry badge-and are proud of it. Captain was donated by a resident of Oakland, Calif., who had given him that name. This platoon's dogs are all German shepherds or crosses of that strain except for one Norwegian elkhound. There used to be an Irish setter, but he was killed by a land mine on Morotai. Jim Head is 29. He has a wife and two children. He did petroleum exploration work in Arabia in 193840 for the California Arabian Standard Oil company. That's where he practiced falconry against the khurwan and hobara birds of Ibn Saud's realm. Owyong. I asked how old she was. "What do you guess?" she asked. I guessed 20, and she said "Something like that." ' Well, losing face fast, the big strong newspaper man went on down the hill and left it to the ladies to plow forward on foot. Colonel Johnson pointed to the big trees as we walked toward the jeQp. "Mahogany," he said. "Good red mahogany. See where a shell has split that one open? Now tha ~ we are getting a road up here some smart Filipino will come in logging and make a fortune." It was raining harder still as our jeep started, and the slippery mud gave it poor footing. We hadn't gone a hundred yards before it got stuck. We got out and pushed, the wheels throwing mud over us. We started again, but this time the jeep slid halfway off the road and stopped at a precarious tilt. We gave up and walked. It was downhill, but no fun. Combat boots· have little traction after they're smeared with wet clay. We passed a bulldozer trying to improve the road - mud doesn't bother those babies. We passed sopping linemen stringing wire. And a lone rifleman taking occasional shots at something moving at the foot of the hill. "Probably a chicken," he said. "But why take a chance?" "The bulldozers are winning the war up here," said Colonel Johnson. And it's easy to believe. All over this area you see new roads carved around the ridges. Without dozers to make roads the supply problem would be appalling. It's bad enough now.

Some very logical questions are being asked today: Why not use · h' b b t d . fi re-ex t mgUJs mg om s o rop on spreading. forest fires? Why . d 'th . no t ~s~ b orr: b ers, eqm~pe WJ preCISIOn s1ghts, to a1m these bombs? Why not use fire-fighting parachute troops to drop beh in d " enemy" 1ines or to transt fi · d'ffi lt t 0 por to re regiOns 1 cu nr>rrotiate by land? The man who is expected to take charge of this program is David Godwin, a veteran of the forest service, who has been active in anti-fire experimental work for a number of years. Godwin already has investigated the possibility of dive-bombing forest fires, using bombs which in reality were exploding fire extinguishers. That, however, was a number of years ago, and didn't meet with much success. It was difficult, the · t ers toun d , t o hit th e exac t expenmen spot where the bomb-extinguishers would do the most good, and there was difficulty in covering a sufficiently large area. Aviation enthusiasts, however, are countil)g upon effective bomb-sight and other precision instruments to change this situation. As an alternative, they believe there may be great possibilities in the use of helicopters. No doubt a fleet of bombing planes could be used to advantage in blasting a fire out of a forest, especially with ground support from a paratrooper battalion. The use of parachute-dropped troops to fight forest fires was first tried a few years ago, and they have been seeing action in this capacity ever since. But there never has been enough of them to combat a really big fire. This number can be expanded greatly after the war, and the wartime training of paratroop combat units can bring about the organization of a formidable firefighting force. 'Jeep' Will Be Fire Engine. When it comes to post-war techniques in forest fire fighting, however, it may be not only the use of waves of bombing planes, and parachute troops to augment the present forces. The ubiquitous "jeep"-accustomed to the jungle trails of New Guinea and the difficult terrain of Africa and Italy-is already recommended by professional foresters as highly suitable for service as a miniature fire engine. Likewise, the "walkie-talkie" radio unquestionably will be used by · the thousands to keep in contact between fire chiefs, their crewmen, aviation spotters, pilots and paratroopers overhead. "Half-tracks," which combine automobile speeds with tank and tractor ability to negotiate swamps and rugged land, can serve efficiently as big brother to the jeeps, and for use as bulldozers to scrape fire trail barriers to the progress of flames. Bulldozers already are essential firefighting equipment. Even flame-throwers developed by the chemical warfare service may be called upon for building "back fires," burning out areas in the path As soon as a forest ranger spots a fire he radios for the flying firefighters. Here a "smoke jumper" is making a "feather bed landing" rin the tops of growth. a young 'f com erous of spreading flames. Accompanying them would be men with fire extinguishers, to guard against the back fires getting out of control. The paratrooper, however, will doubtless have a glory and a duty all his own. His greatest service will come from the fact that he can get there first. Once a watcher from a fire-tower or from a patrolling plane spots smoke, it need be only a few minutes until a paratrooper can land within 50 or 100 yards of the blaze, and by getting there while the fire is just starting, he will be able in man' cases to extinguish it without additional help. Paratroopers b;r Hundred. But when long periods of dryness have rendered the forests highly inflammable and fires spread quickly, a radio summons from the spotters can bring reinforcements in a hurry. A single big plane may bring a score or more paratroopers; a dozen planes could bring them by the hundreds. With their faces protected by plastic masks, heads covered with padded helmets, and bodies covered with non-ripping fabrics, to spare them injuries in case of tree-top landings; and with coils of rope handy for quick descent from the trees, the paratroopers can reach a fire many precious minutes sooner than men on trucks or horseback can generally arrive. Portable fire-fighting devices that are strapped to a man's back are already standard forest equipment suitable for the paratroopers. Sometimes these are hand-pumps with a small tank of water. An alternative device uses water but builds the pressure behind it with carbon dioxide, either in its liquid form or in the form of "dry ice." Some portable extinguishers use carbon dioxide itself to play upon the fires. It snuffs them out by driving away the oxygen. Extinguishers of greater capacity and other supplies will be attached to parachutes and dropped from othc7 planes. Meantime, the jeeps and halftracks, trucks and bulldozers will be moving up with other reinforcements and supplies. They may bring the flame throwers to build back fires, if necessary. They'll bring long lines of hose and high-pressure pumps, powered by motors which are twins to those used on rowboats. With the high pressure equipment, they'll be able to combat fires in "snags," dead trees which are an especial menace because they tend to carry ground fires upward to the tops of other trees. Ground Reinlorcements. When a forest fire goes into the tree tops it is about as difficult to check as any fire can possibly be. In an old forest a crown fire may be as high above ground a~ the 15th story of a skyscraper-with no automatic sprinkler system to help combat it, and plenty of oxygen to make it burn freely. s avy 0 etS M'l;l Delivered • • J-_,~)'; Pattern No. 8855 Is designed for &lzcs 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20.

Crete, Illinois S.pinbler-ttoelling Homemakers Can Shampoo Furniture, Rugs Safely Homemakers can safely give upholstered furniture and rugs a "dry suds" shampoD. To make the shampoo, chip finely and dissolve one small cake of neutral or very mild soap in one quart of boiling water and allow to cool. Add one-half cup of the soap jelly to a pint of cold water and beat with an egg beater until it is worked up into a pretty white froth that looks like a good icing for a cake. Apply the "dry suds" ·to the fn hric, cleaning a small area at a time, and let each new area overlap the last one a little. The "dry suds" soak up the dirt and are then removed by scraping ofT with a plate scraper or spatula. To rinse, use a sponge or cloth wrung from clear, lukewarm water making sure the foundation stays dry but the soap is removed, and wipe the fabric well. It will take two rinses to get the "dry suds" off. The last step in the "dry suds" treatment is to wipe the fabric thoroughly dry. For this, use a dry absorbent cloth. Be sure the finishing strokes go in the direction of the nap or weave of the material.

Trials for Nazi Bigwigs Having voted to extend the reciprocal trade treaty act for three years and grant the President power to cut tariffs 50 per cent under existing levels, the house also approved the Bretton Woods monetary agreements as part of the administration's program for participation in world economic stabilization. Passed by a large vote against the oppostion of a handful of Republicans, the agreements include: 1 An 8,800,000,000 dollar fund of currencies of 44 or more United Nations upon which any member country could draw to obtain foreign exchange at a stable rate for conducting business; A 9,100,000,000 dollar world bank for reconstruction and development, with the various governments either loaning money directly or guaranteeing any private loans made. As has been the case ever since the announcement of the agreements, chief opposition centered around the 8,800,000,000 dollar currency fund, designed to prevent upward or downward flucta tions in the value of different currencies. According to opponents of the plan, sound currencies would be drawn from the fund, leaving only the unstable money of countries not adequately required to straighten out their economic affairs.

S. conquest of the island pressing home the immediate danger to Japan proper, 325 miles to the north. With Japan already hard hit by air, the enemy looked for an imminent invasion of the homeland, with propagandists seeking to assure the people of the strength of weJJ-provisioned underground fortifications, long in the making to thwart any landings. Having fought through the maze r,! interlocking Jap caves on Iwo Jima and Okinawa, American soldiers viewed any underground fortifications in the enemy homeland as an elaboration of the defensive systems on these outlying islands. Though heavily battered after ternffic aerial and artillery bombardment, they were only cleared by steady, concentrated U. S. fire from close-up, plus the gradual exhaustion of supplies. Even as U. S. ground troops reduced Okinawa with its valuable air fields for raids upon the enemy homeland, U. S. fliers were busy hammering at Jap industrial centers and supply lines to China. With the American fleet dominant in Pacific waters, U. S. aircraft took off from carriers to plaster enemy shipping plying between Japan and Korea, thus forcing the Nipponese to use a more round-about route farther north to get into China or else try to break the bloackade at night or in rough weather. Harassment of this route came on top of the U. S. sea and air threat to the Japanese overwater supply line from their conquered South Pacific possessions, and the Chinese pressure against the enemy's overland corridor running the length of the east coast of China. Meanwhile, Superfort bombardments of Jap industrial centers continued apace, with the B-29s extending the devastation of already heavily battered homeland cities. tory would give the Reds control of half of Germany and include the cities of Leipzig, Gotha and Erfurt and the whole province of Thuringia presently held by the U.

SAN FRANCISCO: Break Log-]am With Russia's agreement to permit the discussion of disputes by the security council of the United Nations' postwar peace organization, the log-jam holding up the conclusion of the San Francisco conference was broken. In insisting that any of the five major powers have the right to veto the discussion of a diSpute, Russia almost stood alone through three weeks of prolonged bickering, finally giving in after consultations between U. S. Envoys Hopkins and Harriman with Stalin in Moscow. Though the agreement permits discussion of a dispute without danger of veto, any of the Big Five can vote down proposals for formally investigating the trouble or calling for peaceful settlement. One of the outstanding issues of the conference, the veto question ranked in importance with the subjects of international trusteeships State governments saved 430,254,000 miles of official travel in 1944 through operation of mileage reduction programs in comparison with official sta te mileage figures for 1941, the last prewar year. Translated into equipment, the 430,254,000 un-traveled miles represent a s aving of 2e,683,000 gallons of gasoline, 78,228 tires, 7,171 new passenger vehicles- all neerled by the armed forces vitally for the all-out global warfare. 1 1 I . · I II I Mexico's Foreign Minister Ezequlel Pa· dUia (left) and u. s.

ILL. ell !br d John THE STORY THUS FAR: Tb American troops arrlvl'd at Adano, with Major Joppolo, the Amgot omcer In charge. er~eant Borth was In charge of security. The Major set out to win the confl• dence of the citizens and promised them to replace the town beU stolen by the Nazis. General Marvin ordered aU carts kept out or the city. 1\taJor Joppolo, however, bearing that the city would not cet water without the carts. permitted them to continue to enter Adano. Tbe Major went to see Tomasino, head fisherman, and arranged with him to start the ftsblng boats out In order that the city could have fresh llsh a,;ain. The navy Issued a chart showing where the mines were planted. CHAPTER IX Tomasino was shaken. "Protection," he said. "Before you came we had to pay protection money to Enea, the Supervisor of the Fisheries an evil man. In return he 'pr~tected' us. Hah, Fiorentino said one time that he did not feel the need of protection, and the next week his boat, the pretty Matina, burned up as it lay at its mooring." The Major said: "There will be no such thing under the America~. Tomasino. That's the kind of thing we want to eliminate." Tomasino said: "You are lying to me. There is a trick." At this moment Captain Purvis swung into the port area in . his jeep. He jumped out and ran mto 1he delighted crowd, shouting as he ran: "Scram, you. Get out of here." He pulled out his automatic and fired six shots into the air. The crowd broke instantly. "The Germans, the Germans," one shouted. "The Fascists have come back," someone else shouted. "It's all over," a woman screamed. "I've been wounded," a man moaned. Of course he had not been. All f>r Captain Purvis's shots went into the air. Within twenty seconds the entire crowd had disappeared into the streets of Adana, and there was nothing left at the head of the Malo ~i Ponente except the smoke fro~ Captain Purvis's Colt. The Captam got into his jeep and drove off. Tomasino was alarmed by the shots. "You have come to shoot me," he shouted, springing to . his feet. "I knew there was a tnck. You want to kill me." But Major Joppolo calmed him. ..That was just to get rid of the <:rowd. I don't want anything except to send you out fishing, Tomasino." Tomasino said: "There is a trick," but he sat down again. The Major said: "Tomasino, we will need about half a dozen boats. Can you help arrange this?" "To whom will the tribute be paid? How much will it be?" "You won't have to pay any tribute to the Americans, Tomasino." "No protection. No tribute. I do not believe it. And how much tax must we pay on the gross weight of our catch?" "There will not be any tax on your catch, Tomasino. You will only have to pay the regular taxes. It is true that your profit will be limited to fifteen per cent of what you take in. The rest you must spend in wages to your fishermen and upkeep on your boats." "No protection, no tribute, no special tax. You are making fun of me, American." "Why should I make fun of you, fisherman? It is my job to run this town. I consider it my job to keep the people of this town alive. They haven't enough to eat. I want fish for them. I want you to go fishing. Why should I make fun of you?" Tomasino stood up. "American," he said, "I begin to think you are different from the others." The Major ignored this concessian and said: "Tomasino, I want vou to be the bead of the fishermen ~f Adana. There will no longer be a criminal like - what was his name?" "Enea." "There will no longer be an Enea over the fishermen. I want a fisherman to be in charge of the fishermen." Tomasino's sad face almost broke into a smile . "There would be justice in that, and we fishermen aren't •:ery well acquainted with justice." Then the morose man thought a moment. "No," he said, "I can't do it." "Why not?" "I would be a man of authority. I would be the thing 1 have hated all my life. The other fishermen would laugh at me for becoming the thing I had always hated most." "But Tomasino, you've just admitted that I was different from other men of authority. You could be different too. It is possible to make your authority seem to spring from the very people over whom you have authority. And after a while, Tomasino, it actually does spring from them, and you are only the instrument of their will. That is the thing that the Americans want to teach you who have lived under men who imagined that they themselves were authority." Tomasino thought a long time and then said: "It is too good. There is a trick." "Yes, as a matter of fact there is a trick, fis herman. The trick is that ~orne men are not good enough for Hers~t._J ~ W. H. U • this thing, and that makes it fall down. Right here in thi~ invasion we have a general who is not good enough, General Marvin. He lmagines tha he is something that ought to be worshiped. Also we have one who may not be good enough, I'm not sure yet, much closer to us than the General. I mean t~e Captain of the Navy who runs this port. He is a young man and very fond of authority. And Tomasino, we have to get permission from him before you and the others can go out fishing." "Who is this young man of authority?" Tomasino said with a sullen face. "I will bash his head in with my gaffing hook." And the fisherman's face looked as if he meant it. "Let's go and talk with him." And so the Major and Tomasino went to see Lieutenant Livingston in the Port Captain's office. The Lieutenant was feeling very grumpy after the brush-off Major Joppolo had given him because he was in a hurry. Lieutenant Livingston was in no mood to grant requests to an Army man and a meatball. Major Joppolo, being single-minded, not to say absent-minded, was not in the least conscious of Lieutenant Livingston's mood. "Hi, Captain," he said blithely when he and Tomasino walked in. "Back again." "So I see," said Lieutenant Livingston without pleasure. "This is Tomasino, the head of the fishermen here." Tomasino, hearing his name, gave the Lieutenant a Fascist salute. Lieutenant Livingston s a i d: "Would the old fisherman mind \ jiJ' r I "Scram, you-" taking a seat out there in the hall? I have a rule that no Italians are to come in this office." Major J oppolo said: "Tomasino wouldn't mind, but I would. What kind of way is that to run an office in an Italian town?" Tomasino, hearing his name, gave the Lieutenant another Fascist salute. Quite coolly Lieutenant Livingston said: "I don't know how you run your offices in the Army, Captain, but in the Navy we have something we call security. We can't afford to be careless." Major Joppolo was indignant. "I'll vouch for Tomasino." Tomasino saluted. He hated authority, but he knew it when he saw it. Lieutenant Livingston said testily: "Major, after all, this ·is my office ." The Major said: "Well, it's Tomasino's town." Tomasino saluted. The Lieutenant said: "What do you want, Major?" Major Joppolo said: "I want the Navy's permission to send out six fishing boats to get fish for Adana." Lieutenant Livingston said: "Impossible." Major Joppolo said: "What's impossible about it?" The Lieutenant said: "We'd have to get permission from ComNavit and he'd have to refer it to ComNavNaw, and they're both Admirals. Not a chance." Major Joppolo said: "What's all that gibberish mean?" The Lieutenant said: "Commander Navy Italy and Commander Navy North African Waters. Is that gibberish, Major?" The Major said: "Why do you have to go running to the Admirals? Don't they give you any responsibility at all?" Lieutenant Livingston spoke very patiently. "You wouldn't understand," he said. "This is a Navy problem ." "Listen, Captain, we're in this war together. What's itching you?" "How do you know this man isn't in the Italian Navy? How do you know he isn't being paid by the German Navy? How do you know he just wants to fish?" Major Joppolo was too outraged I looking at HOLLYlVOOD ..-£1'\TURK~ to laugh. "Tomasmo?" "Have you ever talked with Toma· sino?" Tomasino saluted. The Lieutenant said: "Can he speak English?" Major Joppolo had had enough. He said: "Listen, Captain, this town is hungry. It needs fish. If it ?oesn_'t get something to suppleme~t Its d1ct, people are going to d1e here of starvation. Are you going to let these men go out fishing, or aren't you?" Lieutenant Livingston was surprised by the Major's vehemence. "They might hit loose mines anrt be blown up," he said defensively. "I don't care. This is a \Vilr . Some people've got to get killed so others can Jive. Are you going to let these men go out fishing, or aren't you?" Lieutenant Livmgston said uncertainly: "I don't think I ought to." Major Joppolo said: "Captain, unless you give permission for these men to go out, I'm going to send a separate letter naming each person who dies of hunger in this town to your commanding officer, and in each letter I'm going to say it's yo.~r fault." . ~aybe w_e could wor~ somethmg out, the Lieutenant said. "You know we could," Major Joppolo said. "By day after tomorrow I want you to have six charts ready showing exactly where these boats can go and not run into our mine fields. They don't have to show where the mines are. all they need show is an area where the boats can go. I'll see that these men stick to that area. Have it readv clay aft. er tomorrow." And before he could catch himself, Lieutenant Livingston of Kent and Yale had said to Major Joppolo of the Bowery and Tammany Hall: "Yes, sir." Major Joppolo left with Tomasino before the Lieutenant could catch his wits. Outside, Tomasino said: "I hate him. What did he say?" "A lot of foolishness, except for one thing," the Major said. "If you go out fishing, Tomasino, you may get hurt. Your boat might hit an American mine." "What do I care?" said Tomasino. "I am going fishing. Mister Major, if you could know how unhappy the fishermen of Adana have been. All we want in the world is to go fishing. We will go even if we have to pay graft to the men of authority. Now you say we don't have to do that. Thank you, Mister Major." "No," the Major said, and he decided to try something. "No, Tomasino, I thank you for taking charge of the fishermen, and I kiss your hand." Tomasino looked at this man of authority, and he said : "You are different." And the old fisherman turned and ran out on the mole to the Tina, and he shouted as he ran, as if telling his boat: "We are going fishing! We are going fishing! We are going fishing!" The telephone rang. "Hello," Major Joppolo said. "Joppolo, Amgot." "Joppolo, this is Sartorius, up at Vicinam are." "Oh, hello, Colonel." "About that bell." "Yeah, any luck?" "Oh, they shipped it off." "Not only that, but the third entry says the Fecoratta Artillery Foundry at Forty-three Via Edda Mussolini in Milan- can you imagine naming a street for that flewsie? -it says that the Foundry acknowledged receipt of the bell. That entry was on July the second. I'm afraid your bell is just a hunk of cannon now, Joppolo." "Too bad." "Well, at least I found the records for you." "That's awful diSappointing." "Yeah, I'm sorry. But I'm glad I could set you straight on it." All Colonel Sartorius wanted was one word of thanks. "These people down here'll be heartbroken," the single-minded Major said. "Is that a fact ?" said Colonel Sartorius. "Well, you're welcome," and he hung up hard. The day that Mayor Nasta came down from the hills Major Joppolo got his first idea that perhaps the people of Adana really were glad to have the Americans around. Major Joppolo was havi.ng lunch with Captain Purvis at the Albergo dei Pescatori. Joppo!o and Purvis had almost nothing in common, but they were beginning to like each other pretty well. It was probably just tha t they were both officers and Americans, a nd no matter whether they would h ave been worlds apart back . in the States, here they were blood brothers, and they could talk over their reactions and laugh together and understand each other. Brother Purvis still wanted to get Brother J oppolo drunk, but even that issue, which began bitterly, was now becoming a joke and a promise of some fun. The Albergo dei Pescatori had the best food in Adana, and the Major and the Captain ate there regularly now. The food was nothing to write home about, but it was better than C Rations. Lunch and dinner were exactly alike and never varied: pasta with tomato sauce, a little fried eggplant and cheese, an omelet, bread, fruit and red wine. The place owned just nine reg ular customers I (TO BE CONTINUED) I .,d/~oppe~t: THOl!!iHTS ON HORSE RACING Horse racing is a form ot competition between horses to determine what shape the customers are in. -·- It is a demonstration in durability for all participants except the horses. -·- It is a type of sport that combines all the features of a subway jam, a food riot, a Christmas shopping rush and a panic in the madhouse. • A man can get the same sensations in any subway station during the rush hour for :i\1 nickel.

Some of the boys recently sat down and figured that the fans who pay to see Fred MacMurray or Bette Davis in a picture would be twice as eager to see their favorites if said favorites were to do two roles in the same film instead 1 of the customary single stint. Two for the price of one is the ball held out these days. Imagine how the bobbyGene Kelly soxers would queue up if a marquee were to read: "Tonight: 2-Frank SinatrH- 2''!

In order to prevent serious increases of this pest, entomologists of the USDA's research administration, say that all residues of these crops and weeds, especially corn, should be completely destroyed. In 1944, despite light infestation in the eastern part of the infected' region, due primarily to drouth conditions, the European corn borer caused a corn crop loss of over $22,000,000. Under favorable weather conditions, each female moth will lay an average of 400 eggs - and sometimes as :nany as 1,900-which hatch in four to nine days. Infested cornstalks are removed in three ways: by feeding to livestock; by deep and clean plowing; and by complete burning. In the eastern states areas the corn borer attacks-in addition to corn-a great variety of vegetables, field crops, flowers, large-stemmed weeds and grasses. In these areas, remnants of these plants must be included in farm disposal or clean-up operations. In the lake states area the borer breeds mostly in corn. In most of the infested states there are two broods of the borer per year, and in the southernmost of these there may be three broods. The insect begins its activities earlier in the season in the most southern and eastern states and continues them later than it does in the lake states.

Lynn Chambers' Point-Saving Menus Supper Thoughts: When you are having cold cuts and a substantial salad as main interest for supper, have something hot in the way of a quick bread just out of the oven . Good suggestions include these that bake quickly: corn bread, whole wheat biscuits, prune muffins and orange marmalade rolls. A freezer of homemade ice cream is a welcome treat at outdoors suppers. Try some flavored with fresh berries or apricots, and be sure to have the cookie jar handy. Doll up your garden party supper salads with plenty of relishes such as olives, pickles, radish roses and carrot sticks. They make for nice nibbling. Bring out the checked cloths and paper napkins, old-fashioned jugs for flowers, and picnic utensils for under-the-trees eating. They go with the atmosphere. STAB ILIZE'R WITH 25TH DIVISION, AT BALETE PASS, LUZON.-Jim Head used to hunt with falcons in Saudi Arabia. Now he hunts with war dogs on Luzon. And this time it's not birds he's hunting but Japs. I was chewing the rag with him here. A German shepherd named Captain lay under the co~ on which Head sat. Somebody tossed a c1garette on the floor Without putting it out. Head spoke softly: "Captain!" The dog emerged and stood attentively. "Put out the cigarette," said Head. Captain sniffed and looked around, spotted the smoking butt, slapped a paw on it, and the deed was done. Captain has other tricks, but Head emphasizes that this stuff is extracurricular and has nothing to do with the war-dog business. Head - First Lt. James S. Head, Lee G. Miller Carlyle, Ill. - is commanding officer of the 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon. His outfit came overseas in June of '44 and saw action at Biak, Aitape and Morotai before coming to Luzon, where it has been working with the 25th or "Tropic Lightning" division around Balete pass. Jim brought 31 dogs to the Pacific. Now there are only 12. Three have been killed-two of them by grenades in the Balete fighting. Most of the other losses have been due to shellshock. "Dogs are very sensitive to artillery," Jim said. "We usually give a shellshocked dog to some outfit further back, as a mascot." A war dog can detect enemy soldiers as far as 800 yards away if the wind is right, Jim said. The dogs are specialists-some serving as scouts with patrols, some as messengers. They have carried battle messages as far as three miles here. They are also used in sentry duty. "We've run more than 700 patrols," Jim said. "Until we came to Luzon we had never had a patrol that was accompanied by a dog fired on unexpectedly. Up here it has been tougher. The wind currents in these mountains are tricky. I've had five men wounded, all m the Balete area." Some infantry officers have a high regard for the war dogs' work. Oth' ers aren't "believers," Jim ex1 plained. Most of the dogs were donated to the army quartermaster corps. The dog col'ps is a quartermaster unit, but those elements sent to this theater have been transferred to the infantry. So Head and his men were entitled to wear the combat infantry badge-and are proud of it. Captain was donated by a resident of Oakland, Calif., who had given him that name. This platoon's dogs are all German shepherds or crosses of that strain except for one Norwegian elkhound. There used to be an Irish setter, but he was killed by a land mine on Morotai. Jim Head is 29. He has a wife and two children. He did petroleum exploration work in Arabia in 193840 for the California Arabian Standard Oil company. That's where he practiced falconry against the khurwan and hobara birds of Ibn Saud's realm. Owyong. I asked how old she was. "What do you guess?" she asked. I guessed 20, and she said "Something like that." ' Well, losing face fast, the big strong newspaper man went on down the hill and left it to the ladies to plow forward on foot. Colonel Johnson pointed to the big trees as we walked toward the jeQp. "Mahogany," he said. "Good red mahogany. See where a shell has split that one open? Now tha ~ we are getting a road up here some smart Filipino will come in logging and make a fortune." It was raining harder still as our jeep started, and the slippery mud gave it poor footing. We hadn't gone a hundred yards before it got stuck. We got out and pushed, the wheels throwing mud over us. We started again, but this time the jeep slid halfway off the road and stopped at a precarious tilt. We gave up and walked. It was downhill, but no fun. Combat boots· have little traction after they're smeared with wet clay. We passed a bulldozer trying to improve the road - mud doesn't bother those babies. We passed sopping linemen stringing wire. And a lone rifleman taking occasional shots at something moving at the foot of the hill. "Probably a chicken," he said. "But why take a chance?" "The bulldozers are winning the war up here," said Colonel Johnson. And it's easy to believe. All over this area you see new roads carved around the ridges. Without dozers to make roads the supply problem would be appalling. It's bad enough now.

Some very logical questions are being asked today: Why not use · h' b b t d . fi re-ex t mgUJs mg om s o rop on spreading. forest fires? Why . d 'th . no t ~s~ b orr: b ers, eqm~pe WJ preCISIOn s1ghts, to a1m these bombs? Why not use fire-fighting parachute troops to drop beh in d " enemy" 1ines or to transt fi · d'ffi lt t 0 por to re regiOns 1 cu nr>rrotiate by land? The man who is expected to take charge of this program is David Godwin, a veteran of the forest service, who has been active in anti-fire experimental work for a number of years. Godwin already has investigated the possibility of dive-bombing forest fires, using bombs which in reality were exploding fire extinguishers. That, however, was a number of years ago, and didn't meet with much success. It was difficult, the · t ers toun d , t o hit th e exac t expenmen spot where the bomb-extinguishers would do the most good, and there was difficulty in covering a sufficiently large area. Aviation enthusiasts, however, are countil)g upon effective bomb-sight and other precision instruments to change this situation. As an alternative, they believe there may be great possibilities in the use of helicopters. No doubt a fleet of bombing planes could be used to advantage in blasting a fire out of a forest, especially with ground support from a paratrooper battalion. The use of parachute-dropped troops to fight forest fires was first tried a few years ago, and they have been seeing action in this capacity ever since. But there never has been enough of them to combat a really big fire. This number can be expanded greatly after the war, and the wartime training of paratroop combat units can bring about the organization of a formidable firefighting force. 'Jeep' Will Be Fire Engine. When it comes to post-war techniques in forest fire fighting, however, it may be not only the use of waves of bombing planes, and parachute troops to augment the present forces. The ubiquitous "jeep"-accustomed to the jungle trails of New Guinea and the difficult terrain of Africa and Italy-is already recommended by professional foresters as highly suitable for service as a miniature fire engine. Likewise, the "walkie-talkie" radio unquestionably will be used by · the thousands to keep in contact between fire chiefs, their crewmen, aviation spotters, pilots and paratroopers overhead. "Half-tracks," which combine automobile speeds with tank and tractor ability to negotiate swamps and rugged land, can serve efficiently as big brother to the jeeps, and for use as bulldozers to scrape fire trail barriers to the progress of flames. Bulldozers already are essential firefighting equipment. Even flame-throwers developed by the chemical warfare service may be called upon for building "back fires," burning out areas in the path As soon as a forest ranger spots a fire he radios for the flying firefighters. Here a "smoke jumper" is making a "feather bed landing" rin the tops of growth. a young 'f com erous of spreading flames. Accompanying them would be men with fire extinguishers, to guard against the back fires getting out of control. The paratrooper, however, will doubtless have a glory and a duty all his own. His greatest service will come from the fact that he can get there first. Once a watcher from a fire-tower or from a patrolling plane spots smoke, it need be only a few minutes until a paratrooper can land within 50 or 100 yards of the blaze, and by getting there while the fire is just starting, he will be able in man' cases to extinguish it without additional help. Paratroopers b;r Hundred. But when long periods of dryness have rendered the forests highly inflammable and fires spread quickly, a radio summons from the spotters can bring reinforcements in a hurry. A single big plane may bring a score or more paratroopers; a dozen planes could bring them by the hundreds. With their faces protected by plastic masks, heads covered with padded helmets, and bodies covered with non-ripping fabrics, to spare them injuries in case of tree-top landings; and with coils of rope handy for quick descent from the trees, the paratroopers can reach a fire many precious minutes sooner than men on trucks or horseback can generally arrive. Portable fire-fighting devices that are strapped to a man's back are already standard forest equipment suitable for the paratroopers. Sometimes these are hand-pumps with a small tank of water. An alternative device uses water but builds the pressure behind it with carbon dioxide, either in its liquid form or in the form of "dry ice." Some portable extinguishers use carbon dioxide itself to play upon the fires. It snuffs them out by driving away the oxygen. Extinguishers of greater capacity and other supplies will be attached to parachutes and dropped from othc7 planes. Meantime, the jeeps and halftracks, trucks and bulldozers will be moving up with other reinforcements and supplies. They may bring the flame throwers to build back fires, if necessary. They'll bring long lines of hose and high-pressure pumps, powered by motors which are twins to those used on rowboats. With the high pressure equipment, they'll be able to combat fires in "snags," dead trees which are an especial menace because they tend to carry ground fires upward to the tops of other trees. Ground Reinlorcements. When a forest fire goes into the tree tops it is about as difficult to check as any fire can possibly be. In an old forest a crown fire may be as high above ground a~ the 15th story of a skyscraper-with no automatic sprinkler system to help combat it, and plenty of oxygen to make it burn freely. s avy 0 etS M'l;l Delivered • • J-_,~)'; Pattern No. 8855 Is designed for &lzcs 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20.

To make the shampoo, chip finely and dissolve one small cake of neutral or very mild soap in one quart of boiling water and allow to cool. Add one-half cup of the soap jelly to a pint of cold water and beat with an egg beater until it is worked up into a pretty white froth that looks like a good icing for a cake. Apply the "dry suds" ·to the fn hric, cleaning a small area at a time, and let each new area overlap the last one a little. The "dry suds" soak up the dirt and are then removed by scraping ofT with a plate scraper or spatula. To rinse, use a sponge or cloth wrung from clear, lukewarm water making sure the foundation stays dry but the soap is removed, and wipe the fabric well. It will take two rinses to get the "dry suds" off. The last step in the "dry suds" treatment is to wipe the fabric thoroughly dry. For this, use a dry absorbent cloth.

Trials for Nazi Bigwigs Having voted to extend the reciprocal trade treaty act for three years and grant the President power to cut tariffs 50 per cent under existing levels, the house also approved the Bretton Woods monetary agreements as part of the administration's program for participation in world economic stabilization. Passed by a large vote against the oppostion of a handful of Republicans, the agreements include: 1 An 8,800,000,000 dollar fund of currencies of 44 or more United Nations upon which any member country could draw to obtain foreign exchange at a stable rate for conducting business; A 9,100,000,000 dollar world bank for reconstruction and development, with the various governments either loaning money directly or guaranteeing any private loans made. As has been the case ever since the announcement of the agreements, chief opposition centered around the 8,800,000,000 dollar currency fund, designed to prevent upward or downward flucta tions in the value of different currencies. According to opponents of the plan, sound currencies would be drawn from the fund, leaving only the unstable money of countries not adequately required to straighten out their economic affairs.

S. conquest of the island pressing home the immediate danger to Japan proper, 325 miles to the north. With Japan already hard hit by air, the enemy looked for an imminent invasion of the homeland, with propagandists seeking to assure the people of the strength of weJJ-provisioned underground fortifications, long in the making to thwart any landings. Having fought through the maze r,! interlocking Jap caves on Iwo Jima and Okinawa, American soldiers viewed any underground fortifications in the enemy homeland as an elaboration of the defensive systems on these outlying islands. Though heavily battered after ternffic aerial and artillery bombardment, they were only cleared by steady, concentrated U. S. fire from close-up, plus the gradual exhaustion of supplies. Even as U. S. ground troops reduced Okinawa with its valuable air fields for raids upon the enemy homeland, U. S. fliers were busy hammering at Jap industrial centers and supply lines to China. With the American fleet dominant in Pacific waters, U. S. aircraft took off from carriers to plaster enemy shipping plying between Japan and Korea, thus forcing the Nipponese to use a more round-about route farther north to get into China or else try to break the bloackade at night or in rough weather. Harassment of this route came on top of the U. S. sea and air threat to the Japanese overwater supply line from their conquered South Pacific possessions, and the Chinese pressure against the enemy's overland corridor running the length of the east coast of China. Meanwhile, Superfort bombardments of Jap industrial centers continued apace, with the B-29s extending the devastation of already heavily battered homeland cities. tory would give the Reds control of half of Germany and include the cities of Leipzig, Gotha and Erfurt and the whole province of Thuringia presently held by the U.

SAN FRANCISCO: Break Log-]am With Russia's agreement to permit the discussion of disputes by the security council of the United Nations' postwar peace organization, the log-jam holding up the conclusion of the San Francisco conference was broken. In insisting that any of the five major powers have the right to veto the discussion of a diSpute, Russia almost stood alone through three weeks of prolonged bickering, finally giving in after consultations between U. S. Envoys Hopkins and Harriman with Stalin in Moscow. Though the agreement permits discussion of a dispute without danger of veto, any of the Big Five can vote down proposals for formally investigating the trouble or calling for peaceful settlement. One of the outstanding issues of the conference, the veto question ranked in importance with the subjects of international trusteeships State governments saved 430,254,000 miles of official travel in 1944 through operation of mileage reduction programs in comparison with official sta te mileage figures for 1941, the last prewar year. Translated into equipment, the 430,254,000 un-traveled miles represent a s aving of 2e,683,000 gallons of gasoline, 78,228 tires, 7,171 new passenger vehicles- all neerled by the armed forces vitally for the all-out global warfare. 1 1 I . · I II I Mexico's Foreign Minister Ezequlel Pa· dUia (left) and u. s.

ILL. ell !br d John THE STORY THUS FAR: Tb American troops arrlvl'd at Adano, with Major Joppolo, the Amgot omcer In charge. er~eant Borth was In charge of security. The Major set out to win the confl• dence of the citizens and promised them to replace the town beU stolen by the Nazis. General Marvin ordered aU carts kept out or the city. 1\taJor Joppolo, however, bearing that the city would not cet water without the carts. permitted them to continue to enter Adano. Tbe Major went to see Tomasino, head fisherman, and arranged with him to start the ftsblng boats out In order that the city could have fresh llsh a,;ain. The navy Issued a chart showing where the mines were planted. CHAPTER IX Tomasino was shaken. "Protection," he said. "Before you came we had to pay protection money to Enea, the Supervisor of the Fisheries an evil man. In return he 'pr~tected' us. Hah, Fiorentino said one time that he did not feel the need of protection, and the next week his boat, the pretty Matina, burned up as it lay at its mooring." The Major said: "There will be no such thing under the America~. Tomasino. That's the kind of thing we want to eliminate." Tomasino said: "You are lying to me. There is a trick." At this moment Captain Purvis swung into the port area in . his jeep. He jumped out and ran mto 1he delighted crowd, shouting as he ran: "Scram, you. Get out of here." He pulled out his automatic and fired six shots into the air. The crowd broke instantly. "The Germans, the Germans," one shouted. "The Fascists have come back," someone else shouted. "It's all over," a woman screamed. "I've been wounded," a man moaned. Of course he had not been. All f>r Captain Purvis's shots went into the air. Within twenty seconds the entire crowd had disappeared into the streets of Adana, and there was nothing left at the head of the Malo ~i Ponente except the smoke fro~ Captain Purvis's Colt. The Captam got into his jeep and drove off. Tomasino was alarmed by the shots. "You have come to shoot me," he shouted, springing to . his feet. "I knew there was a tnck. You want to kill me." But Major Joppolo calmed him. ..That was just to get rid of the <:rowd. I don't want anything except to send you out fishing, Tomasino." Tomasino said: "There is a trick," but he sat down again. The Major said: "Tomasino, we will need about half a dozen boats. Can you help arrange this?" "To whom will the tribute be paid? How much will it be?" "You won't have to pay any tribute to the Americans, Tomasino." "No protection. No tribute. I do not believe it. And how much tax must we pay on the gross weight of our catch?" "There will not be any tax on your catch, Tomasino. You will only have to pay the regular taxes. It is true that your profit will be limited to fifteen per cent of what you take in. The rest you must spend in wages to your fishermen and upkeep on your boats." "No protection, no tribute, no special tax. You are making fun of me, American." "Why should I make fun of you, fisherman? It is my job to run this town. I consider it my job to keep the people of this town alive. They haven't enough to eat. I want fish for them. I want you to go fishing. Why should I make fun of you?" Tomasino stood up. "American," he said, "I begin to think you are different from the others." The Major ignored this concessian and said: "Tomasino, I want vou to be the bead of the fishermen ~f Adana. There will no longer be a criminal like - what was his name?" "Enea." "There will no longer be an Enea over the fishermen. I want a fisherman to be in charge of the fishermen." Tomasino's sad face almost broke into a smile . "There would be justice in that, and we fishermen aren't •:ery well acquainted with justice." Then the morose man thought a moment. "No," he said, "I can't do it." "Why not?" "I would be a man of authority. I would be the thing 1 have hated all my life. The other fishermen would laugh at me for becoming the thing I had always hated most." "But Tomasino, you've just admitted that I was different from other men of authority. You could be different too. It is possible to make your authority seem to spring from the very people over whom you have authority. And after a while, Tomasino, it actually does spring from them, and you are only the instrument of their will. That is the thing that the Americans want to teach you who have lived under men who imagined that they themselves were authority." Tomasino thought a long time and then said: "It is too good. There is a trick." "Yes, as a matter of fact there is a trick, fis herman. The trick is that ~orne men are not good enough for Hers~t._J ~ W. H. U • this thing, and that makes it fall down. Right here in thi~ invasion we have a general who is not good enough, General Marvin. He lmagines tha he is something that ought to be worshiped. Also we have one who may not be good enough, I'm not sure yet, much closer to us than the General. I mean t~e Captain of the Navy who runs this port. He is a young man and very fond of authority. And Tomasino, we have to get permission from him before you and the others can go out fishing." "Who is this young man of authority?" Tomasino said with a sullen face. "I will bash his head in with my gaffing hook." And the fisherman's face looked as if he meant it. "Let's go and talk with him." And so the Major and Tomasino went to see Lieutenant Livingston in the Port Captain's office. The Lieutenant was feeling very grumpy after the brush-off Major Joppolo had given him because he was in a hurry. Lieutenant Livingston was in no mood to grant requests to an Army man and a meatball. Major Joppolo, being single-minded, not to say absent-minded, was not in the least conscious of Lieutenant Livingston's mood. "Hi, Captain," he said blithely when he and Tomasino walked in. "Back again." "So I see," said Lieutenant Livingston without pleasure. "This is Tomasino, the head of the fishermen here." Tomasino, hearing his name, gave the Lieutenant a Fascist salute. Lieutenant Livingston s a i d: "Would the old fisherman mind \ jiJ' r I "Scram, you-" taking a seat out there in the hall? I have a rule that no Italians are to come in this office." Major J oppolo said: "Tomasino wouldn't mind, but I would. What kind of way is that to run an office in an Italian town?" Tomasino, hearing his name, gave the Lieutenant another Fascist salute. Quite coolly Lieutenant Livingston said: "I don't know how you run your offices in the Army, Captain, but in the Navy we have something we call security. We can't afford to be careless." Major Joppolo was indignant. "I'll vouch for Tomasino." Tomasino saluted. He hated authority, but he knew it when he saw it. Lieutenant Livingston said testily: "Major, after all, this ·is my office ." The Major said: "Well, it's Tomasino's town." Tomasino saluted. The Lieutenant said: "What do you want, Major?" Major Joppolo said: "I want the Navy's permission to send out six fishing boats to get fish for Adana." Lieutenant Livingston said: "Impossible." Major Joppolo said: "What's impossible about it?" The Lieutenant said: "We'd have to get permission from ComNavit and he'd have to refer it to ComNavNaw, and they're both Admirals. Not a chance." Major Joppolo said: "What's all that gibberish mean?" The Lieutenant said: "Commander Navy Italy and Commander Navy North African Waters. Is that gibberish, Major?" The Major said: "Why do you have to go running to the Admirals? Don't they give you any responsibility at all?" Lieutenant Livingston spoke very patiently. "You wouldn't understand," he said. "This is a Navy problem ." "Listen, Captain, we're in this war together. What's itching you?" "How do you know this man isn't in the Italian Navy? How do you know he isn't being paid by the German Navy? How do you know he just wants to fish?" Major Joppolo was too outraged I looking at HOLLYlVOOD ..-£1'\TURK~ to laugh. "Tomasmo?" "Have you ever talked with Toma· sino?" Tomasino saluted. The Lieutenant said: "Can he speak English?" Major Joppolo had had enough. He said: "Listen, Captain, this town is hungry. It needs fish. If it ?oesn_'t get something to suppleme~t Its d1ct, people are going to d1e here of starvation. Are you going to let these men go out fishing, or aren't you?" Lieutenant Livingston was surprised by the Major's vehemence. "They might hit loose mines anrt be blown up," he said defensively. "I don't care. This is a \Vilr . Some people've got to get killed so others can Jive. Are you going to let these men go out fishing, or aren't you?" Lieutenant Livmgston said uncertainly: "I don't think I ought to." Major Joppolo said: "Captain, unless you give permission for these men to go out, I'm going to send a separate letter naming each person who dies of hunger in this town to your commanding officer, and in each letter I'm going to say it's yo.~r fault." . ~aybe w_e could wor~ somethmg out, the Lieutenant said. "You know we could," Major Joppolo said. "By day after tomorrow I want you to have six charts ready showing exactly where these boats can go and not run into our mine fields. They don't have to show where the mines are. all they need show is an area where the boats can go. I'll see that these men stick to that area. Have it readv clay aft. er tomorrow." And before he could catch himself, Lieutenant Livingston of Kent and Yale had said to Major Joppolo of the Bowery and Tammany Hall: "Yes, sir." Major Joppolo left with Tomasino before the Lieutenant could catch his wits. Outside, Tomasino said: "I hate him. What did he say?" "A lot of foolishness, except for one thing," the Major said. "If you go out fishing, Tomasino, you may get hurt. Your boat might hit an American mine." "What do I care?" said Tomasino. "I am going fishing. Mister Major, if you could know how unhappy the fishermen of Adana have been. All we want in the world is to go fishing. We will go even if we have to pay graft to the men of authority. Now you say we don't have to do that. Thank you, Mister Major." "No," the Major said, and he decided to try something. "No, Tomasino, I thank you for taking charge of the fishermen, and I kiss your hand." Tomasino looked at this man of authority, and he said : "You are different." And the old fisherman turned and ran out on the mole to the Tina, and he shouted as he ran, as if telling his boat: "We are going fishing! We are going fishing! We are going fishing!" The telephone rang. "Hello," Major Joppolo said. "Joppolo, Amgot." "Joppolo, this is Sartorius, up at Vicinam are." "Oh, hello, Colonel." "About that bell." "Yeah, any luck?" "Oh, they shipped it off." "Not only that, but the third entry says the Fecoratta Artillery Foundry at Forty-three Via Edda Mussolini in Milan- can you imagine naming a street for that flewsie? -it says that the Foundry acknowledged receipt of the bell. That entry was on July the second. I'm afraid your bell is just a hunk of cannon now, Joppolo." "Too bad." "Well, at least I found the records for you." "That's awful diSappointing." "Yeah, I'm sorry. But I'm glad I could set you straight on it." All Colonel Sartorius wanted was one word of thanks. "These people down here'll be heartbroken," the single-minded Major said. "Is that a fact ?" said Colonel Sartorius. "Well, you're welcome," and he hung up hard. The day that Mayor Nasta came down from the hills Major Joppolo got his first idea that perhaps the people of Adana really were glad to have the Americans around. Major Joppolo was havi.ng lunch with Captain Purvis at the Albergo dei Pescatori. Joppo!o and Purvis had almost nothing in common, but they were beginning to like each other pretty well. It was probably just tha t they were both officers and Americans, a nd no matter whether they would h ave been worlds apart back . in the States, here they were blood brothers, and they could talk over their reactions and laugh together and understand each other. Brother Purvis still wanted to get Brother J oppolo drunk, but even that issue, which began bitterly, was now becoming a joke and a promise of some fun. The Albergo dei Pescatori had the best food in Adana, and the Major and the Captain ate there regularly now. The food was nothing to write home about, but it was better than C Rations. Lunch and dinner were exactly alike and never varied: pasta with tomato sauce, a little fried eggplant and cheese, an omelet, bread, fruit and red wine. The place owned just nine reg ular customers I (TO BE CONTINUED) I .,d/~oppe~t: THOl!!iHTS ON HORSE RACING Horse racing is a form ot competition between horses to determine what shape the customers are in. -·- It is a demonstration in durability for all participants except the horses. -·- It is a type of sport that combines all the features of a subway jam, a food riot, a Christmas shopping rush and a panic in the madhouse. • A man can get the same sensations in any subway station during the rush hour for :i\1 nickel.

Where the stage supplies a line of 20 girls in a musical, the movies (bless 'em) give us 200. Such prodigality pays off and always has. That's one reason studios do things in a big way.

In order to prevent serious increases of this pest, entomologists of the USDA's research administration, say that all residues of these crops and weeds, especially corn, should be completely destroyed. In 1944, despite light infestation in the eastern part of the infected' region, due primarily to drouth conditions, the European corn borer caused a corn crop loss of over $22,000,000. Under favorable weather conditions, each female moth will lay an average of 400 eggs - and sometimes as :nany as 1,900-which hatch in four to nine days. Infested cornstalks are removed in three ways: by feeding to livestock; by deep and clean plowing; and by complete burning. In the eastern states areas the corn borer attacks-in addition to corn-a great variety of vegetables, field crops, flowers, large-stemmed weeds and grasses. In these areas, remnants of these plants must be included in farm disposal or clean-up operations. In the lake states area the borer breeds mostly in corn. In most of the infested states there are two broods of the borer per year, and in the southernmost of these there may be three broods. The insect begins its activities earlier in the season in the most southern and eastern states and continues them later than it does in the lake states.

Fdrm Prices Passed by the senate as part of a bill extending OPA for one year, a provision requiring that farm producers be granted cost plus profit headed for rough treatment in the house, with Pres. Harry S. Truman joining to oppose the amendment. Drawn by Senators Wherry (Neb.) and Shipstead (Neb.) and adopted by a 37 to 30 vote, the cost-plus provision stipulates that "it shan be unlawful to establish or maintain against the producers of any livestock, grain or other agricultural commodity a maximum price . • . which does not equal all costs and expenses {including all overhead expenses, a return on capital and an allowance for the labor of the producer and family) . . . plus a reasonable profit thereon." While President Truman described the provision as bad and hoped the house would knoclc it out, other critics declared that it would create confusion by replacing the present parity formula, scaling farm prices according to general costs. Countering this argument, Senator Wherry said the provision would apply if parity prices failed to meet expenses.

Outspoken foe of Hitler's regime, Michael Cardinal Faulhaber officiated at ceremony. PACIFIC: New Campaign Under heavy attack in the northern portion of their empire, the Japs face equally heavy pressure in the south, with Allied forces under command of Gen. Douglas MacArthur moving into northern Borneo in a drive to conquer the island that easily could be the prelude to a campaign against the Indies and Malaya. Rich in oil and rubber and possessing good ports and airfields for a thrust to the west, Borneo was overrrun by the Japs early in 1942 while the Allied cause in the Pacific still remained paralyzed after Pearl Harbor. With Jap shipping coming under increasing U. S. air and sea pressure, Borneo's value to the enemy has been sharply reduced, and Allied invasion forces met only meager opposition as they moved inland in the mountainous country. Though only lightly defending the comparj'ltively communicable coastal regions, the Japs did fire the extensive oil installations located there in an effort to prevent their use by the Allies for future operations. Flames from the storage tanks and wells could be seen for 40 miles. ' VETS CARE: Le.~ion, V_F_W. Critical Stung by the American Legion and V.F.W.'s ringing denunciation of the veterans administration bureau, congress moved to look into the whole question and give ear to the comprehensive program outlined by both service organizations for efficient functioning of the department. With a spokesmar:. declaring that the bureau may eventually have to handle the cases of 18,000.000 G .I.s, the American Legion suggested the creation of a deputy administrator under Gen. Omar Bradley and a realignment of authority under six assistants to handle medical care, insurance, finance, Joan guarantees, readjustment allowances, vocational training, rehabilitation and education, adjustment of compensation, pension and retirement claims, construction, supplies and contracts. Though criticizing the overall operations of the bureau, the American Legion and V.F.W. particularly rapped vet hospital care, charging that 47 per cent of the institutions now give inadequate treatment and citing instances of abuse in some centers. To relieve conditions, the organizations proposed increasing bed capacity; boosting wages; allowing authorities more leeway in securing help and supplies; more intelligent segregation of patients to speed recovery, and replacing army with civilian personnel. . DIG THREE: Smoothen Relations Troubled relations over Poland having been seemingly smoothened, the Big Three looked forward to their forthcoming meeting for planning the peace co'nference to reestablish the broken continent of Europe. News of the approaching Big Three confab followed a nnouncement that officials of the U. S., Britain and Russia would meet in Moscow with the Red-sponsored Warsaw government and democratic leaders from within and outside of Poland to discuss the composition of a more representative regime for the country.

Three relations were Harry Hopkins and Joseph E. Davies, President Truman's special emissaries to Moscow and London. Following receipt of reports from them upon their return to the U. S., the chief executive expressed confidence in a settlement of the Polish question, declaring the Russians were as anxious to get along with us as we are with them. The late President Roosevelt's No. 1 confidante, Hopkins appeared to have played an especially key part in the discussions abroad, with Mr. Truman revealing that he not only conferred on the irksome Polish situation but also persuaded the Russians to surrender their demands for vetoing the right of aggrieved nations to air their complaints before the postwar peace organization. While the step toward bringing together the dissident Polish elements was considered an encoura'ging move for the development of a Though distribution of sugar through the first five months of 1945 exceeded that for the same period in last year, the War Food administration fixed rigid quotas for government and civilian users for JulyAugust-September, with the home front obtaining 10,000 less tons than at present. From January through May, distribution of sugar totalled 2,955,906 short tons compared with 2,747,543 last year, it was revealed. Reflecting criticism that the impending sugar pinch has resulted from loose allocations of the commodity in the face of over-optimism over supplies, figures showed that as of June 2 raw sugar stocks amounted to 275,746 short tons compared with 442,234 last year, the beet in· ventories totaled 374,052 short tons as against 465,222.

CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT Looking at THE STORY THUS FAR: The Amerl· ean troops arrived at Adano, with Major .Joppolo, tbe Amcot officer In charge. Sergeant Borth was In charge ol securf· ty. The Major was determined to re· place the town bell stolen by the Nub, &nd In other ways to build conlldence among the people. He wanted to start tbe 6sltermen out again and arranged ' ,..lth Lieut. Livingston, s enior naval omer, to open the waters to their boatR. He ..allowed the carts to enter the city witb food and water, despite orders from Gen· era! Marvin that tbe cart• be kept out or the city. Capt. Purvis reported to bead· quarters the cart orders given by the MaJor, by sending olr the delayed letter to headquarters. CHAPTER X At each meal there were also some idlers in the place, but they just came in to listen to the noon and six-thirty broadcasts from Rome. On the day that Mayor Nasta came down from the hills. Major Joppolo and Captain Purvis had just finished their pasta and were talking about the stuffy Navy fellow, Livingston, when they heard an unusual noise out in the street. There were shouts of anger, and whistles. But the noise outside grew, and seemed to be coming up the street. And soon several of the idlers who had been listening to the radio in the restaurant ran out. As the noise grew still louder the two women picked up handfuls of fruit and ran out, pursued by their guests. Then the owner of the place and his wife and son ran out with their mouths full of pasta and eggplant. Finally Major J oppolo said: "Le t's go see what it is. " So he and Captain Purvis ran out too, w1th their napkins in their hands. This is what they saw: Up the center of the street a forlorn looking man walked. He was very short, and rather heavy-set. His clothes were dirty and torn. His shoes were covered with dust. His face was very sad, and he walked slowly, hanging his head . There was only one proud touch to his whole figure, and that was a pair of pincenez spectacles balanced on his big nose. Behind the man, keeping a safe distance as if there still might be some dynamite in him, a large crowd walked, shouting and whistling its derision. The derision was ten times louder than it would other~ise have been because this was the first time the people of Adana had ever been able to express their feelings toward this man. Even behll1d their own closed doors they had held their tongues about Mayor Nasta in the past, because he seemed to have ears in every house, and his eyes peeked in every window, and his punishments were sadistic. But now they shouted what they thought. "Fascist Pig," they shouted. This was what they shouted most. But they also shouted: "The murderer always goes back to the scene of his crime!" They also shouted: "Where is Mayor Nasta's whip now?" Curiously the two women shouted, and there was a kind of pride in the way they shouted. There was a priest in the crowd, and he shouted: "Blasphemer!" There were some children in the crowd, and they ran along shouting: "Pig! Pig! Pig!" The anger of the mob bordered on violence. When the unhappy Mayor got opposite the Albergo dei Pescatori one of the women raised her arm and threw a plum at him. It missed him and splashed in the street. A boy of twelve threw a stone. Then sever?) brickbats flew, and the shouts of long repressed hatred became shrieks of revenge. Captain Purvis looked at Major Joppolo and Major Joppolo said: "We've got to put a stop to this." Captain Purvis was not a subtle American, but he was a brave one. He ran out in the street between Mayor Nasta and the crowd. He held up his hand and shouted: "Stop! Stop," you ignorant fools." The crowd kept coming. A stone flew past Captain Purvis toward Mayor Nasta. Captain Purvis pulled his pistol ·out of his pocket. That was enough. The ones in front held back the others, and the mob halted in the street. Captain Purvis went back 'to the sidewalk. Mayor Nasta, seeing that he was saved, ran over to his deliverers, and he stood in the gutter blubbering his thanks. "Americans! Oh, my friends. Thank you for saving me from these ungrateful people. I have served them for years and see how they behave. I am all alone, Americans. I have been in the hills all alone for days. No one would stay with me. All the others gave themselves up. I have thought everything over. I wish to help you if I can. . . . " And he rattled on, his voice going higher and higher. Someone in the mob shouted: "Mister Major, if you help that man ·you are not our friend." Major Joppolo acted quickly to save the situation. He walked into the street and held up his hand for ~ilence; he was careful to make it his left hand, so that it would not be mistaken for a Fascist salute. "Go home, people. I will take care of this man as he deserves. He is under arrest." And the Ma jor said quickly to Captain Purvis in Englis h. "Arrest him, Purvis, show this gang that you're arresting him." This was the kind of thing Captain Purvis enjoyed, and as he clapped his hand h eavily on Mayor Nasta's s houlder he shouted : "I wish I under s tood Eyetalian. This is wonderful." The crowd broke up slowly, mumbling its protests at being deprived of revenge. Purvis said : "Who is this little squirt, anyway? They sure hate him, don't they?" Major Joppolo said : "He's the one who ut.ed to be Mavor." "Oh, he is, is he? W~ll. according to what Borth says, they've got plenty of reason to hate him." And the Captain kicked Mayor Nasta in the seat of the pants simply because he didn't know the Italian for: "You're a little squirt." Mayor Nasta whimpered in Italian: "What are you going to do with me? If you are going to kill me, please tell me first. Don't shoot me from behind." What Major Joppolo did with Mayor Nasta was to take him up to his office. Everyone, even little Zito who had once worked for Mayor Nasta, even D' Arpa, the weasel-like vice mayor who had once worked with him, everyone made faces of disgust when they saw Mayor Nasta, and some made obscene remarks within his hearing. When word passed around the Palazzo that Mayor Nasta was back, Captain Purvis pulled his pistol out of his pocket. many people stuck their heads in the door at the end of the Major's office, which had once been the Mayor's office, to have a look at him in his disheveled condition, and to laugh at him to his face. Major Joppolo said to Zito and Giuseppe: "I want to have a talk with Mayor Nasta alone. Go and tell the people in the other offices that I do not want to be disturbed, not even by a cracking open of that door. I do not even want to be disturbed by the brushing of ears on the keyhole." "Yes, Mister Major," Zito said. "No, Miste r Major," Giuseppe said. Major Joppolo sat at the desk and said brusquely: "Sit down." Mayor Nasta sat in one of the chairs in front of the desk. "Well, what is it that you wish?" Major Joppolo said. Mayor Nasta brushed his hand along the wood of the desk pathetically, and he said: "It seems strange to be sitting on the wrong side of this desk." Major J oppolo said: "It may seem stranger to sit on the wrong side of the bars of your municipal jail. What do you want?" Mayor Nasta rearranged the pince-nez on his nose, but he did not look Major Joppolo in the eye as he said: "I just want a chance, Mister Major." "You want a chance!" Major Joppolo spoke angrily. "To whom did you ever give a chance?" "I have thought it over," Mayor Nasta said. "I have been all alone for days. It was awful at night. I have thought it over, Mister Major. I want to help if I can." "How many years were you in office?" "Nine, Mister Major." "After nine years in office, you have thought it all over, have you? After nine years of graft and stealing and keeping these people down, you've thought it over, you want to help, do you?" "You have other Fascists in office here. I saw the face of D' Arpa a minute ago. I saw Tagliavia who was my Maresciallo of Finance. I saw Gargano of the Carabinieri. If you could use these, why not Nasta, the Mayor?" "I have a new Mayor, and a bet1 ter one." .. This hurt. "Who is this Mayor?" "Bellanca the NOtario, an honest man, much more honest than the former Mayor." And the former Mayor said: "Yes, Bellanca is honest. But surely you have something for Nasta to do? I would accept something less than Mayor." Nasta rubbed the wood of the desk wistfully . "There is not much left of the old Na sta," he said. "I would accept something less than Mayor." Major Joppolo's eyes grew angry. He stood up abruptly. "Oh, you would, would you? Yes, I have something for you to do. You are to report every morning to Sergeant Borth of the American Army. You will find him in the Fascia: That is all you have to do each day. But see that you do it, Nasta, or you will be put in jail." "You mean that Nasta has become a common probationer?" "Oh, so Nasta is familiar with the practice of putting people on probation? That is very genteel of you, Nasta. I thought all your punishments were more ingenious than that." "Please be generous with me," Nasta said. "Please give me some work to do." "Generous? Nasta, what do you expect? For the crimes you have committed against the people of Adana, you deserve to be shot outright, without a trial. You certainly never would give a fair trial, unless it brought you some kind of profit. I am being more than generous. I am putting you on probation. See that you behave, vou Fascist." Mayor Nasta was obsequious now. "Yes, Miste r Major," he said . "What did you say was the name of the American office r to whom I must report?" "His name is Borth, and he is not an officer. He is a sergeant. You are not worth an officer, Nasta." "Yes, Mister Major." This is how it happened that Mayor Nasta reported once every morn· lng to Sergeant Borth at the Fascia. Because four or five people followed the Mayor everywhere he went out of curiosity and hatred, there was a small audience on hand the next morning when he reported to Sergeant Borth for the first time. The audience enjoyed what it saw and heard, for this kind of situation was meat for Sergeant Borth, who thought the whole war was a joke. The tattered Nasta stepped into one of the M.P. offices, rearranged his pince-nez, and said: "Where will I find the Sergeant Borth?" "I am Borth." "I am Nasta." "Oho," roared Sergeant Borth. He stood up, rubbing his hands. "So you are the Mayor. I understand that you have come to Adano to repent your sins. Is that right, noble Mayor?" "I was told that I was to report here each morning. I was to report, riot be humiliated, Sergeant." "You will call me Mister Sergeant." Mayor Nasta snorted, from his long habit of snorting. Borth said sharply: "Listen, N asta, I know more about you than you know about yourself. You be careful how you behave here . Now, answer my questions civilly. Is it correct that you came to Adana to repent your sins?" Mayor Nasta was white with anger, but he said: "I suppose you might say so." "Thank you," Borth said with exaggerated politeness. "In that case you will repent one sin each morning when you report to Sergeant Borth. Would you like to choose your own sins, or would you like Sergeant Borth to choose them for you?" Mayor Nasta couldn't keep himsel.i' from snorting. "I see," said Borth, with his overpoliteness, "you would like Borth to choose. Very well, let's see. This morning we will discuss the sin of your disgraceful running away from your post in the face of the American invasion. What is this"sin called, Mayor Nasta?" "What do you mean, what is it called?" "You are at a loss for words? Very well, Borth will answer his own question. It is called the sin of cowardice." Mayor Nasta snorted. "No matter what side you were on, no matter if you were on the side of the crooks, it was a sin to run away, was it not, Mayor?" Mayor Nasta rearranged his pince-nez with a trembling hand. "Answer my question: did you or did you not give rifles to the Carabinieri and grenades to the Finance Guards, make them a beautiful speech about fighting to the last man, and then run to the hills?" Mayor Nasta said with a trembling voice: "You tell me, clever Sergeant." Sergeant Borth shouted: "Answer me, probationer." Mayor Nasta said quietly: "I did, Sergeant." "Mister Sergeant!" "I did, Mister Sergeant." "Are you sorry for this disgraceful sin, Nasta?" Mayor Nasta could hear the people snickering behind him. He said meekly: "I am, Mister Sergeant." <TO BE CONTINUED) • P•rson5 now ~ngag~J in ~s.senti~l industry will not apply without stat~>· m•nt of availability /rom tluir local United Stares Employment Servtce. HOLLYWOOD Released by Western Newspaper Union. RETURNING SOLDIER "What a country to get back to! • . . Boy, I could make love to its mud puddles, not to mention its rock and rills! ... The first peep at that statue of Lib . . . . The first look at the homefront skyline! ... The skyscrapers! ... The shops, the stores, the houses, even the hotdog stands! . . . The first eyeful of signs a guy can read, of windows with American clothes in 'em, and the names of beers, cigars and people he heard of before! A I 1 WORLD-WIDE audience and hence a world-wide influence is claimed for the product of the Hollywood studios. There is ample external evidence that this claim is not exaggerated. Indeed, it's only in the last few years that the public has become even dimly aware of how far-reaching the screen's influence really is. And of course we of the industry itself are the last to learn these things. We can't see the forest for the trees. Well, there are a few fundamentals that we can't get away from in evaluating the state of the world, present and future. One of them is that if we're going to go on having wars all of us are going to suffer no matter who wins the victories. Have you ever stopped to reflect that back in 1917 and 1918, when our country en1ered upon its first exalted crusade to make the world safe for dem?cracy, nearly a~l of t~e present_ leadmg stars of motion p1ctures etther were not born or were pret~y young? There are some exceptwns, of course. Covering the Globe Today they are serving the flag on all the far-flung fronts where duty has called them. They are flying airplanes, burrowing into foxholes, helping to man carriers, battleships, cruisers, destroyers, submarines. They're accomplishing dangerous missions with cameras, waging the deadly war of propaganda in which our American ideas and ideals are the high explosives. Where are their children going to be 25 years from today? Our statesmanship of today is America's legacy to its young men and women of tomorrow. Where is it going to lead us? You might be surprised to realize how many toddlers cooing and gurgling in Hollywood nurseries today have a life and death stake in the answer to those questions. Bumper Crop Surprised? When I compiled a list of Hollywood babies born in 1944 and 1945 I was astonished. I'm not drawing any distinction where babies are concerned, but one can't name them all. This war has taught us that we are really and genuinely a democracy; that our army, navy, and marine corps represent the people and are in very truth the people. So, from the ranks of our professional artists, here goes: Alice Faye Harris and her husband, Phil, have two baby girls. Same for Betty Grable and Harry James. Orchestra leaders both, the fathers, ~nd ~amous, too. Glamour boys. So s D1ck Haymes a glamour boy. He and Joanne Marshall Haymes greeted a new baby last summer. Girla and More Giru My! Look at the baby girls in my list! Here's Ann Sothern with another; the father, Lt. Robert Sterling. Ken Murray comes along with a boy. Good for you, Ken. Martha Raye and Nick Condos had a .. girl. So did Jean Rogers and Danny Winkler. And what's this? Nancy Coleman delighted Whitney Bolton's masculine pride by presenting him with twin girls. . Veloz and Yolanda produced a son. Benita Burne and Ronald Colman countered with a daughter. Here's Ruth Hussey and Lt. Bob Longnecker adding to the female population; also the Eddie Brackens, Donna King and Lt. James Conklin, the Bob Crosbys and the Gregory Pecks relieved the monotony-their babies are boys. · And so we come into 1945. Rita Hayworth and Orson Welles were the first big time Hollywood mamma and papa of the year, and theirs is a girl. E-leanor Powell and Glenn Ford countered with a boy. Maureen O'Sullivan and John Farrow promptly announced a feminine addition to their growing family, but Susan Hayward hit the jackpot with twin boys. Jess Barker's the father. The Jack Carsons added a baby daughter. Looking Into the Future What a responsibility rests upon these young Hollywood fathers and mothers of little ones brought into this disturbed world! We hear on all sides that what the world needs and is crying aloud for is leaders. Leadership. That, I think, no one will deny. Fathers and mothers of this day, if you don't want to go through a repetition of broken hearts, sorrow, maimed bodies, wrecked minds and nerves a generation from now, better be looking alive right nowl • • • And 'Twas Ever Thus I asked Gene Fowler how he was coming along with "Goodnight, Sweet Prince." He said, "We're at a complete standstill. I may have to sell the thing after all. Isn't it funny? It's like a man standing on a street corner selling $5 gold pieces for a buck and nobody will buy. I've had fabulous offers for it, but nobody is willing to take it free." He wants all the profits to go to the motion picture relief home. . . .

They should be canned the day they are gathered but if kept cool they may stand ~s much as 24 hours before processing. This is mentioned because some person. must depend upon a market for their supply. Any tomato containing a decayed spot, no matter how small, should be discarded. Canning those from which such spots have been removed leads to spoilage. Sound over-ripe ones and those from which small spots have been cut may be made into chili sauce or ketchupnever, never into juice. Juice requires sound tomatoes. The jars, caps, rubbers, and canner sl>ould be ready before one prepares ~he tomatoes. Every tomato should be carefully washed before it is scalded for skinning. If you have no wire basket, a square of cheese cloth will serve the purpose of holding tomatoes for scalding. Simply put enough tomatoes for filling one or two jars on the cloth, catch up the four ends of the square, and hold the "bag" in boiling water from one-half to one minute. Then, if you like, dip the · bag in cold water, making it <l little easier to .:emove the skins. Next use a sharp pointed knife to remove every bit of the core, slip the skins, cut away any green or white spots and drop the tomato into a clean hot jar. Cut tomatoes if they won't go in whole.

That was good pay 80 years ago but a first-class welder can do better now. Congressmen have had two raises in salary since then. The last one was 20 years ago when they started earning $10,000 a year which was, at the time, a comfortable living for them.

These are details however. It is wrong in principle that government employees wait 20 years for a raise. Dangerous Bureaucracy The important thing is that every workman who quits a job in private industry to enter government employ gets his wage scale frozen. The change of work may bring more pay but that's temporary. Whoever works at that job a generation from now will probably be earning the same amount and spending a lot more to live. Remember that the Oli •cERTAIN DAYS' of the month? laborer of today is earning senatorial pay for 1865. These facts are understood well by men of industry and leaders in labor movements. It is encouraging to observe how the Labor-Management Charter, signed in Washington last March by labor union executives andJ prominent men of business, deals with the subject. In brief it states: Private enterprise is the necessary foundation for the welfare of labor as well as management. The Basis of Future Farm Earnings Is Soil Fertility Acid Indigestion Read the Ads ' Girls! Do ·you suffer .from uervous tension I Conservation Crop Scientists have developed a variety of sorghum that yields neither grain nor fodder. The "no yield" sorghum was bred for an erosioncontrol crop. When planted for this purpose, it is best to leave all growth on the land. Stalks of the new variety make good growth, but are too' hard and dry for forage and contain no sweetness. The seed also is too small to make it worth harvestin& for grain. The brushy beads are unsuitable for making brooms. So, say the plant breeders, the "no yield" sorghum is well suited for use in erosion control. Its characteristics remove any temptation the grower might have to harvest the crops for other purposes;. Helps Build Up ReslsttiiJce Against Such Distress!

These floating factories, recently revealed to be in action, are changing the concept of naval warfare by enabling strategists to plan oceangoing operations without dependence on the availability of fixed bases. Whereas the old static concept of sea strategy required ships to operate within an approximate range of 2,000 miles from a permanent repair base, floating drydocks make i1 possible to establish bases as they are needed and as near the fighting zone as desired. In operation these mobile drydocks prepare a warship for repair :by literally lifting the damaged ves:sel out of the water, thus giving •workmen access to any part of the !hull or deck, the same as if the lship were being overhauled on land. !This is achieved by admitting water to sealed compartments so that the 1drydock submerges. When this is . accomplished, the damaged vessel !is floated over the dock or the dock 'is submerg~d under the vessel. Thc:1 water is pumped out of the compartments, and the drydock, with the ship under repair now nestling on it in a rack, ar.ises to the surface. ,In this position, the damaged ship lis completely out of the water, with t:ts hull exposed, and examination or ~epair is made possible. ! l mm==========cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc= .. / i New Compass Helps Pilots Hold Course Have you ever been misled in the woods because you read your pocket compass when it was too near your ax or rifle? If so, you can understand why heavy metallic armor around fighter-plane cockpits made fit necessary to adopt a kind of com·, pass that could be located in a wing tip, or the tall; but read in the cockpit. Such a remote-indicating comlpass is now being manufactured. Such compasses offer other advantages in that one compass unit may have several remote indicating detajls so the navigator or other memers ot the crew on large planes an have the same information as he pilot. Permanent magnets in the compass unit, placed in a wing tip or the tail of the plane far from the plane's disturbing magnetic effects, line themselves up with the earth's magnetic field. These magnets affect the electrical voltages in a wire coil so that corresponding coils in the one or more indicators in the cockpit move pointers over a dial in ~ exactly the same directions as the ,compass.

Frosty Thirst-Quenchers Are Party Fare (See Recipes Below) Light Refreshments Looking for an easy way to return your social obligations? This is the season for it, because entertaining can be cool, simple and still lovely. All fqod can be point easy and fun to fix because it does not require standing over a hot stove to have it ready. For the simpler type of party, rely heavily on cooling thirst quenchers with perhaps a few cookies or small cakes arranged attractively on a platter. If the party takes the place of dinner, you might have several substantial salads. Try serving on the lawn or garden, buffet style, and save strain on housekeeping. You will want to suggest coolness in your table settings. Blues and greens are very comfortable and you can relieve the monotony by having flowers in whites, pink or y<>llow, whichever goes best with what you have. I've picked out some especially good beverages for this season. Don't use your supplies of canning sugar for such things as this. If you can manage to purchase ice cream and sherbet for the drinks, do so and save the sugar where it's most needed. Orange Cream. (Serves 6) 4 egg yolks 4~ cups orange juice 1~ cups cream or rich milk Sugar, if desired Beat egg yolkli until light, add orange juice and blend thoroughly. Pour into glasses and stir in cream. Sweeten to taste, if sugar is needed. Serve at once. Party Punch. (Serves 8 to 10) 1 cup freshly made tea 1 cup sugar 2 cups water 1 cup orange juice 1 cup sliced, sweetened strawberries ~ cup lemon juice 1 pint carbonated water Pour hot tea over sugar, add water. Cool. Add orange and lemon juice and strawberries. Just before serving, add carbonated water. If served in punch bowl, add thin slices of orange. Orange Punch. (Serves 6 to 8) 1 pint orange ice 4 pints dry ginger ale Crushed ice Maraschino cherries Beat orange ice 'B.nd ginger ale together. Serve in glasses with crushed ice and cherries. Fruit Lemonade. (Serves 6 to 8) 1~ cups light corn syrup (Serves 6) J_{J cup water Juice of 2 lemons Juice of 2 oranges ~3 cup pineapple juice 4 tablespoons cracked ice Lynn Says Easy Sips: Next time you have iced tea, flavor with honey instead of sugar and serve with lemon and orange wedges. It's delightful. If you have leftover fruit juices, coffee or tea, make ice cubes with them. Then frosty drinks will not have that watery flavor. Bits of fruit, berries or mint sprigs may also be frozen in ice cubes to make them attractive. For a good afternoon pickup, try chilled tomato juice with ginger ale or, use apricot nectar with a dash of lemon juice. Iced coffee takes on a party touch when topped with meringue and sprinkled with cinnamon. Lynn Chambers' Refreshment Suggestion 4 cherries Few slices of banana 1~ cups ginger ale Boil together syrup and water for 2 minutes. Set aside and cool. Pour one-half cup of the cooled syrup into shaker or large jar, add fruit juices and ice and shake. Fill glasses about half full of the mixture and complete with ginger ale, remaining syrup, slivered cherries and banana. Cookies to go with the cool drinks should be tasty but sugar-saving. You'll like both of these suggestions: Fudgies, (Makes 4 dozen 2-inch cookies) ~ cup shortening Y2 cup sugar Y2 cup dark corn syrup 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 egg 2 squares chocolate 2 cups flour Y2 teaspoon soda 1 teaspoon saJt Y2 cup buttermilk or sour miJk o/i cup nuts Cream together sugar and shortening. Add syrup gradually, beating after each addition. Blend in vanilla. Add egg and beat until light. Add melted chocolate. Sift together all dry ingredients, then add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating until smooth after each addition. Blend in nuts. Drop by spoonfuls on greased baking sheet. Bake in a moderate, (350-degree) oven. (Onehalf cup cocoa may be used in place of chocolate. Sift with flour, soda and salt.) Almond Jam Bars. (Makes 2% dozen mediumsized bars) ¥2 cup shortening ¥! teaspoon almond extract ¥2 teaspoon vanilla ¥:! cup corn syrup or honey 1 Y2 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/z teaspoon salt ¥2 teaspoon cinnamon ~ teaspoon cloves 1 egg % cup jam Mix together shortening and extracts. Add syrup, mixing well. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cloves. Add to shortening and mix until crumbly. Beat in egg, mixing well. Spread half of batter on greased, shallow pan. Spread jam over batter. Cover jam. with remaining batter. Bake in a moderately hot (400-degree) oven 2530 minutes. Cut in bars. Here's a light layer cake that's lovely for more elaborate parties. Spread marshmallow filling in between and on top, then sprinkle with shaved nuts and candied cherries: Swedish Layer Cake. 5 whites of eggs ¥2 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 cup sugar cup cocoa ¥:: cup flour ¥2 teaspoon vanilla Beat eggs until foamy, add cream of tartar, sugar and cocoa and beat well very stiff. Add vanilla, fold in sifted flour and place in 2 shallow, buttered pans. Bake in a moderate (350-degree) oven about 20 minutes. A good cookie type of sweet for summertime is this one that is sugar-saving, too. Melt about 2lh cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips in the top part of a double boiler and then mix in 3lh cups wheat flakes. Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper and allow to cool.

Fdrm Prices Passed by the senate as part of a bill extending OPA for one year, a provision requiring that farm producers be granted cost plus profit headed for rough treatment in the house, with Pres. Harry S. Truman joining to oppose the amendment. Drawn by Senators Wherry (Neb.) and Shipstead (Neb.) and adopted by a 37 to 30 vote, the cost-plus provision stipulates that "it shan be unlawful to establish or maintain against the producers of any livestock, grain or other agricultural commodity a maximum price . • . which does not equal all costs and expenses {including all overhead expenses, a return on capital and an allowance for the labor of the producer and family) . . . plus a reasonable profit thereon." While President Truman described the provision as bad and hoped the house would knoclc it out, other critics declared that it would create confusion by replacing the present parity formula, scaling farm prices according to general costs. Countering this argument, Senator Wherry said the provision would apply if parity prices failed to meet expenses.

Outspoken foe of Hitler's regime, Michael Cardinal Faulhaber officiated at ceremony. PACIFIC: New Campaign Under heavy attack in the northern portion of their empire, the Japs face equally heavy pressure in the south, with Allied forces under command of Gen. Douglas MacArthur moving into northern Borneo in a drive to conquer the island that easily could be the prelude to a campaign against the Indies and Malaya. Rich in oil and rubber and possessing good ports and airfields for a thrust to the west, Borneo was overrrun by the Japs early in 1942 while the Allied cause in the Pacific still remained paralyzed after Pearl Harbor. With Jap shipping coming under increasing U. S. air and sea pressure, Borneo's value to the enemy has been sharply reduced, and Allied invasion forces met only meager opposition as they moved inland in the mountainous country. Though only lightly defending the comparj'ltively communicable coastal regions, the Japs did fire the extensive oil installations located there in an effort to prevent their use by the Allies for future operations. Flames from the storage tanks and wells could be seen for 40 miles. ' VETS CARE: Le.~ion, V_F_W. Critical Stung by the American Legion and V.F.W.'s ringing denunciation of the veterans administration bureau, congress moved to look into the whole question and give ear to the comprehensive program outlined by both service organizations for efficient functioning of the department. With a spokesmar:. declaring that the bureau may eventually have to handle the cases of 18,000.000 G .I.s, the American Legion suggested the creation of a deputy administrator under Gen. Omar Bradley and a realignment of authority under six assistants to handle medical care, insurance, finance, Joan guarantees, readjustment allowances, vocational training, rehabilitation and education, adjustment of compensation, pension and retirement claims, construction, supplies and contracts. Though criticizing the overall operations of the bureau, the American Legion and V.F.W. particularly rapped vet hospital care, charging that 47 per cent of the institutions now give inadequate treatment and citing instances of abuse in some centers. To relieve conditions, the organizations proposed increasing bed capacity; boosting wages; allowing authorities more leeway in securing help and supplies; more intelligent segregation of patients to speed recovery, and replacing army with civilian personnel. . DIG THREE: Smoothen Relations Troubled relations over Poland having been seemingly smoothened, the Big Three looked forward to their forthcoming meeting for planning the peace co'nference to reestablish the broken continent of Europe. News of the approaching Big Three confab followed a nnouncement that officials of the U. S., Britain and Russia would meet in Moscow with the Red-sponsored Warsaw government and democratic leaders from within and outside of Poland to discuss the composition of a more representative regime for the country.

Three relations were Harry Hopkins and Joseph E. Davies, President Truman's special emissaries to Moscow and London. Following receipt of reports from them upon their return to the U. S., the chief executive expressed confidence in a settlement of the Polish question, declaring the Russians were as anxious to get along with us as we are with them. The late President Roosevelt's No. 1 confidante, Hopkins appeared to have played an especially key part in the discussions abroad, with Mr. Truman revealing that he not only conferred on the irksome Polish situation but also persuaded the Russians to surrender their demands for vetoing the right of aggrieved nations to air their complaints before the postwar peace organization. While the step toward bringing together the dissident Polish elements was considered an encoura'ging move for the development of a Though distribution of sugar through the first five months of 1945 exceeded that for the same period in last year, the War Food administration fixed rigid quotas for government and civilian users for JulyAugust-September, with the home front obtaining 10,000 less tons than at present. From January through May, distribution of sugar totalled 2,955,906 short tons compared with 2,747,543 last year, it was revealed. Reflecting criticism that the impending sugar pinch has resulted from loose allocations of the commodity in the face of over-optimism over supplies, figures showed that as of June 2 raw sugar stocks amounted to 275,746 short tons compared with 442,234 last year, the beet in· ventories totaled 374,052 short tons as against 465,222.

CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT Looking at THE STORY THUS FAR: The Amerl· ean troops arrived at Adano, with Major .Joppolo, tbe Amcot officer In charge. Sergeant Borth was In charge ol securf· ty. The Major was determined to re· place the town bell stolen by the Nub, &nd In other ways to build conlldence among the people. He wanted to start tbe 6sltermen out again and arranged ' ,..lth Lieut. Livingston, s enior naval omer, to open the waters to their boatR. He ..allowed the carts to enter the city witb food and water, despite orders from Gen· era! Marvin that tbe cart• be kept out or the city. Capt. Purvis reported to bead· quarters the cart orders given by the MaJor, by sending olr the delayed letter to headquarters. CHAPTER X At each meal there were also some idlers in the place, but they just came in to listen to the noon and six-thirty broadcasts from Rome. On the day that Mayor Nasta came down from the hills. Major Joppolo and Captain Purvis had just finished their pasta and were talking about the stuffy Navy fellow, Livingston, when they heard an unusual noise out in the street. There were shouts of anger, and whistles. But the noise outside grew, and seemed to be coming up the street. And soon several of the idlers who had been listening to the radio in the restaurant ran out. As the noise grew still louder the two women picked up handfuls of fruit and ran out, pursued by their guests. Then the owner of the place and his wife and son ran out with their mouths full of pasta and eggplant. Finally Major J oppolo said: "Le t's go see what it is. " So he and Captain Purvis ran out too, w1th their napkins in their hands. This is what they saw: Up the center of the street a forlorn looking man walked. He was very short, and rather heavy-set. His clothes were dirty and torn. His shoes were covered with dust. His face was very sad, and he walked slowly, hanging his head . There was only one proud touch to his whole figure, and that was a pair of pincenez spectacles balanced on his big nose. Behind the man, keeping a safe distance as if there still might be some dynamite in him, a large crowd walked, shouting and whistling its derision. The derision was ten times louder than it would other~ise have been because this was the first time the people of Adana had ever been able to express their feelings toward this man. Even behll1d their own closed doors they had held their tongues about Mayor Nasta in the past, because he seemed to have ears in every house, and his eyes peeked in every window, and his punishments were sadistic. But now they shouted what they thought. "Fascist Pig," they shouted. This was what they shouted most. But they also shouted: "The murderer always goes back to the scene of his crime!" They also shouted: "Where is Mayor Nasta's whip now?" Curiously the two women shouted, and there was a kind of pride in the way they shouted. There was a priest in the crowd, and he shouted: "Blasphemer!" There were some children in the crowd, and they ran along shouting: "Pig! Pig! Pig!" The anger of the mob bordered on violence. When the unhappy Mayor got opposite the Albergo dei Pescatori one of the women raised her arm and threw a plum at him. It missed him and splashed in the street. A boy of twelve threw a stone. Then sever?) brickbats flew, and the shouts of long repressed hatred became shrieks of revenge. Captain Purvis looked at Major Joppolo and Major Joppolo said: "We've got to put a stop to this." Captain Purvis was not a subtle American, but he was a brave one. He ran out in the street between Mayor Nasta and the crowd. He held up his hand and shouted: "Stop! Stop," you ignorant fools." The crowd kept coming. A stone flew past Captain Purvis toward Mayor Nasta. Captain Purvis pulled his pistol ·out of his pocket. That was enough. The ones in front held back the others, and the mob halted in the street. Captain Purvis went back 'to the sidewalk. Mayor Nasta, seeing that he was saved, ran over to his deliverers, and he stood in the gutter blubbering his thanks. "Americans! Oh, my friends. Thank you for saving me from these ungrateful people. I have served them for years and see how they behave. I am all alone, Americans. I have been in the hills all alone for days. No one would stay with me. All the others gave themselves up. I have thought everything over. I wish to help you if I can. . . . " And he rattled on, his voice going higher and higher. Someone in the mob shouted: "Mister Major, if you help that man ·you are not our friend." Major Joppolo acted quickly to save the situation. He walked into the street and held up his hand for ~ilence; he was careful to make it his left hand, so that it would not be mistaken for a Fascist salute. "Go home, people. I will take care of this man as he deserves. He is under arrest." And the Ma jor said quickly to Captain Purvis in Englis h. "Arrest him, Purvis, show this gang that you're arresting him." This was the kind of thing Captain Purvis enjoyed, and as he clapped his hand h eavily on Mayor Nasta's s houlder he shouted : "I wish I under s tood Eyetalian. This is wonderful." The crowd broke up slowly, mumbling its protests at being deprived of revenge. Purvis said : "Who is this little squirt, anyway? They sure hate him, don't they?" Major Joppolo said : "He's the one who ut.ed to be Mavor." "Oh, he is, is he? W~ll. according to what Borth says, they've got plenty of reason to hate him." And the Captain kicked Mayor Nasta in the seat of the pants simply because he didn't know the Italian for: "You're a little squirt." Mayor Nasta whimpered in Italian: "What are you going to do with me? If you are going to kill me, please tell me first. Don't shoot me from behind." What Major Joppolo did with Mayor Nasta was to take him up to his office. Everyone, even little Zito who had once worked for Mayor Nasta, even D' Arpa, the weasel-like vice mayor who had once worked with him, everyone made faces of disgust when they saw Mayor Nasta, and some made obscene remarks within his hearing. When word passed around the Palazzo that Mayor Nasta was back, Captain Purvis pulled his pistol out of his pocket. many people stuck their heads in the door at the end of the Major's office, which had once been the Mayor's office, to have a look at him in his disheveled condition, and to laugh at him to his face. Major Joppolo said to Zito and Giuseppe: "I want to have a talk with Mayor Nasta alone. Go and tell the people in the other offices that I do not want to be disturbed, not even by a cracking open of that door. I do not even want to be disturbed by the brushing of ears on the keyhole." "Yes, Mister Major," Zito said. "No, Miste r Major," Giuseppe said. Major Joppolo sat at the desk and said brusquely: "Sit down." Mayor Nasta sat in one of the chairs in front of the desk. "Well, what is it that you wish?" Major Joppolo said. Mayor Nasta brushed his hand along the wood of the desk pathetically, and he said: "It seems strange to be sitting on the wrong side of this desk." Major J oppolo said: "It may seem stranger to sit on the wrong side of the bars of your municipal jail. What do you want?" Mayor Nasta rearranged the pince-nez on his nose, but he did not look Major Joppolo in the eye as he said: "I just want a chance, Mister Major." "You want a chance!" Major Joppolo spoke angrily. "To whom did you ever give a chance?" "I have thought it over," Mayor Nasta said. "I have been all alone for days. It was awful at night. I have thought it over, Mister Major. I want to help if I can." "How many years were you in office?" "Nine, Mister Major." "After nine years in office, you have thought it all over, have you? After nine years of graft and stealing and keeping these people down, you've thought it over, you want to help, do you?" "You have other Fascists in office here. I saw the face of D' Arpa a minute ago. I saw Tagliavia who was my Maresciallo of Finance. I saw Gargano of the Carabinieri. If you could use these, why not Nasta, the Mayor?" "I have a new Mayor, and a bet1 ter one." .. This hurt. "Who is this Mayor?" "Bellanca the NOtario, an honest man, much more honest than the former Mayor." And the former Mayor said: "Yes, Bellanca is honest. But surely you have something for Nasta to do? I would accept something less than Mayor." Nasta rubbed the wood of the desk wistfully . "There is not much left of the old Na sta," he said. "I would accept something less than Mayor." Major Joppolo's eyes grew angry. He stood up abruptly. "Oh, you would, would you? Yes, I have something for you to do. You are to report every morning to Sergeant Borth of the American Army. You will find him in the Fascia: That is all you have to do each day. But see that you do it, Nasta, or you will be put in jail." "You mean that Nasta has become a common probationer?" "Oh, so Nasta is familiar with the practice of putting people on probation? That is very genteel of you, Nasta. I thought all your punishments were more ingenious than that." "Please be generous with me," Nasta said. "Please give me some work to do." "Generous? Nasta, what do you expect? For the crimes you have committed against the people of Adana, you deserve to be shot outright, without a trial. You certainly never would give a fair trial, unless it brought you some kind of profit. I am being more than generous. I am putting you on probation. See that you behave, vou Fascist." Mayor Nasta was obsequious now. "Yes, Miste r Major," he said . "What did you say was the name of the American office r to whom I must report?" "His name is Borth, and he is not an officer. He is a sergeant. You are not worth an officer, Nasta." "Yes, Mister Major." This is how it happened that Mayor Nasta reported once every morn· lng to Sergeant Borth at the Fascia. Because four or five people followed the Mayor everywhere he went out of curiosity and hatred, there was a small audience on hand the next morning when he reported to Sergeant Borth for the first time. The audience enjoyed what it saw and heard, for this kind of situation was meat for Sergeant Borth, who thought the whole war was a joke. The tattered Nasta stepped into one of the M.P. offices, rearranged his pince-nez, and said: "Where will I find the Sergeant Borth?" "I am Borth." "I am Nasta." "Oho," roared Sergeant Borth. He stood up, rubbing his hands. "So you are the Mayor. I understand that you have come to Adano to repent your sins. Is that right, noble Mayor?" "I was told that I was to report here each morning. I was to report, riot be humiliated, Sergeant." "You will call me Mister Sergeant." Mayor Nasta snorted, from his long habit of snorting. Borth said sharply: "Listen, N asta, I know more about you than you know about yourself. You be careful how you behave here . Now, answer my questions civilly. Is it correct that you came to Adana to repent your sins?" Mayor Nasta was white with anger, but he said: "I suppose you might say so." "Thank you," Borth said with exaggerated politeness. "In that case you will repent one sin each morning when you report to Sergeant Borth. Would you like to choose your own sins, or would you like Sergeant Borth to choose them for you?" Mayor Nasta couldn't keep himsel.i' from snorting. "I see," said Borth, with his overpoliteness, "you would like Borth to choose. Very well, let's see. This morning we will discuss the sin of your disgraceful running away from your post in the face of the American invasion. What is this"sin called, Mayor Nasta?" "What do you mean, what is it called?" "You are at a loss for words? Very well, Borth will answer his own question. It is called the sin of cowardice." Mayor Nasta snorted. "No matter what side you were on, no matter if you were on the side of the crooks, it was a sin to run away, was it not, Mayor?" Mayor Nasta rearranged his pince-nez with a trembling hand. "Answer my question: did you or did you not give rifles to the Carabinieri and grenades to the Finance Guards, make them a beautiful speech about fighting to the last man, and then run to the hills?" Mayor Nasta said with a trembling voice: "You tell me, clever Sergeant." Sergeant Borth shouted: "Answer me, probationer." Mayor Nasta said quietly: "I did, Sergeant." "Mister Sergeant!" "I did, Mister Sergeant." "Are you sorry for this disgraceful sin, Nasta?" Mayor Nasta could hear the people snickering behind him. He said meekly: "I am, Mister Sergeant." <TO BE CONTINUED) • P•rson5 now ~ngag~J in ~s.senti~l industry will not apply without stat~>· m•nt of availability /rom tluir local United Stares Employment Servtce. HOLLYWOOD Released by Western Newspaper Union. RETURNING SOLDIER "What a country to get back to! • . . Boy, I could make love to its mud puddles, not to mention its rock and rills! ... The first peep at that statue of Lib . . . . The first look at the homefront skyline! ... The skyscrapers! ... The shops, the stores, the houses, even the hotdog stands! . . . The first eyeful of signs a guy can read, of windows with American clothes in 'em, and the names of beers, cigars and people he heard of before! A I 1 WORLD-WIDE audience and hence a world-wide influence is claimed for the product of the Hollywood studios. There is ample external evidence that this claim is not exaggerated. Indeed, it's only in the last few years that the public has become even dimly aware of how far-reaching the screen's influence really is. And of course we of the industry itself are the last to learn these things. We can't see the forest for the trees. Well, there are a few fundamentals that we can't get away from in evaluating the state of the world, present and future. One of them is that if we're going to go on having wars all of us are going to suffer no matter who wins the victories. Have you ever stopped to reflect that back in 1917 and 1918, when our country en1ered upon its first exalted crusade to make the world safe for dem?cracy, nearly a~l of t~e present_ leadmg stars of motion p1ctures etther were not born or were pret~y young? There are some exceptwns, of course. Covering the Globe Today they are serving the flag on all the far-flung fronts where duty has called them. They are flying airplanes, burrowing into foxholes, helping to man carriers, battleships, cruisers, destroyers, submarines. They're accomplishing dangerous missions with cameras, waging the deadly war of propaganda in which our American ideas and ideals are the high explosives. Where are their children going to be 25 years from today? Our statesmanship of today is America's legacy to its young men and women of tomorrow. Where is it going to lead us? You might be surprised to realize how many toddlers cooing and gurgling in Hollywood nurseries today have a life and death stake in the answer to those questions. Bumper Crop Surprised? When I compiled a list of Hollywood babies born in 1944 and 1945 I was astonished. I'm not drawing any distinction where babies are concerned, but one can't name them all. This war has taught us that we are really and genuinely a democracy; that our army, navy, and marine corps represent the people and are in very truth the people. So, from the ranks of our professional artists, here goes: Alice Faye Harris and her husband, Phil, have two baby girls. Same for Betty Grable and Harry James. Orchestra leaders both, the fathers, ~nd ~amous, too. Glamour boys. So s D1ck Haymes a glamour boy. He and Joanne Marshall Haymes greeted a new baby last summer. Girla and More Giru My! Look at the baby girls in my list! Here's Ann Sothern with another; the father, Lt. Robert Sterling. Ken Murray comes along with a boy. Good for you, Ken. Martha Raye and Nick Condos had a .. girl. So did Jean Rogers and Danny Winkler. And what's this? Nancy Coleman delighted Whitney Bolton's masculine pride by presenting him with twin girls. . Veloz and Yolanda produced a son. Benita Burne and Ronald Colman countered with a daughter. Here's Ruth Hussey and Lt. Bob Longnecker adding to the female population; also the Eddie Brackens, Donna King and Lt. James Conklin, the Bob Crosbys and the Gregory Pecks relieved the monotony-their babies are boys. · And so we come into 1945. Rita Hayworth and Orson Welles were the first big time Hollywood mamma and papa of the year, and theirs is a girl. E-leanor Powell and Glenn Ford countered with a boy. Maureen O'Sullivan and John Farrow promptly announced a feminine addition to their growing family, but Susan Hayward hit the jackpot with twin boys. Jess Barker's the father. The Jack Carsons added a baby daughter. Looking Into the Future What a responsibility rests upon these young Hollywood fathers and mothers of little ones brought into this disturbed world! We hear on all sides that what the world needs and is crying aloud for is leaders. Leadership. That, I think, no one will deny. Fathers and mothers of this day, if you don't want to go through a repetition of broken hearts, sorrow, maimed bodies, wrecked minds and nerves a generation from now, better be looking alive right nowl • • • And 'Twas Ever Thus I asked Gene Fowler how he was coming along with "Goodnight, Sweet Prince." He said, "We're at a complete standstill. I may have to sell the thing after all. Isn't it funny? It's like a man standing on a street corner selling $5 gold pieces for a buck and nobody will buy.

They should be canned the day they are gathered but if kept cool they may stand ~s much as 24 hours before processing. This is mentioned because some person. must depend upon a market for their supply. Any tomato containing a decayed spot, no matter how small, should be discarded. Canning those from which such spots have been removed leads to spoilage. Sound over-ripe ones and those from which small spots have been cut may be made into chili sauce or ketchupnever, never into juice. Juice requires sound tomatoes. The jars, caps, rubbers, and canner sl>ould be ready before one prepares ~he tomatoes. Every tomato should be carefully washed before it is scalded for skinning. If you have no wire basket, a square of cheese cloth will serve the purpose of holding tomatoes for scalding. Simply put enough tomatoes for filling one or two jars on the cloth, catch up the four ends of the square, and hold the "bag" in boiling water from one-half to one minute. Then, if you like, dip the · bag in cold water, making it <l little easier to .:emove the skins.

Graubart, pastpresident of the Columbia university • school of optometry, said that in hi.s investigations he found that two special tints, a light buff and a light gray used in combination, made an immediate difference in safety and productivity. Successful experiments were made in painting machinery with ]jght green, yellow, aluminum, light blue and buff color, all of which gave more brilliancy than the old gray, black and green paints. Painting walls a solid color from floor to ceiling is hard on the eyes,' according to Dr. Graubart. Investigations have shown that painting walls two different colors is easier on the eyes. Best results .\vere obtained by painting a dado about 4 feet high a darker color than the remainder of the wall from the dado to the ceiling. The painting of floors whether they be wood or concrete is keenly apprcciatQd, A concrete floor painted a medium gray will reflect 35 per cent of light while the same floor unpainted will reflect about 5 per cent. l\lilk Film ' Calcium and protein-two of the important food values in milleca•Jse difficuWes in dish w~ shm~ and laundering Most homc-ma''d know how hard it is to w:-'!11 glas 'C-; pitchers and other milk con' 'lin ers clean.

That was good pay 80 years ago but a first-class welder can do better now. Congressmen have had two raises in salary since then. The last one was 20 years ago when they started earning $10,000 a year which was, at the time, a comfortable living for them. A great many executives in private enterprise em1.n more money than senators although they do not cl::Jim superior ability. Why do our legislators not earn more?

Dangerous Bureaucracy The important thing is that every workman who quits a job in private industry to enter government employ gets his wage scale frozen. The change of work may bring more pay but that's temporary. Whoever works at that job a generation from now will probably be earning the same amount and spending a lot more to live. Remember that the Oli •cERTAIN DAYS' of the month? laborer of today is earning senatorial pay for 1865. These facts are understood well by men of industry and leaders in labor movements. It is encouraging to observe how the Labor-Management Charter, signed in Washington last March by labor union executives andJ prominent men of business, deals with the subject. In brief it states: Private enterprise is the necessary foundation for the welfare of labor as well as management. The Basis of Future Farm Earnings Is Soil Fertility Acid Indigestion Read the Ads ' Girls! Do ·you suffer .from uervous tension I Conservation Crop Scientists have developed a variety of sorghum that yields neither grain nor fodder. The "no yield" sorghum was bred for an erosioncontrol crop. When planted for this purpose, it is best to leave all growth on the land. Stalks of the new variety make good growth, but are too' hard and dry for forage and contain no sweetness. The seed also is too small to make it worth harvestin& for grain. The brushy beads are unsuitable for making brooms. So, say the plant breeders, the "no yield" sorghum is well suited for use in erosion control. Its characteristics remove any temptation the grower might have to harvest the crops for other purposes;. Helps Build Up ReslsttiiJce Against Such Distress!

These floating factories, recently revealed to be in action, are changing the concept of naval warfare by enabling strategists to plan oceangoing operations without dependence on the availability of fixed bases. Whereas the old static concept of sea strategy required ships to operate within an approximate range of 2,000 miles from a permanent repair base, floating drydocks make i1 possible to establish bases as they are needed and as near the fighting zone as desired. In operation these mobile drydocks prepare a warship for repair :by literally lifting the damaged ves:sel out of the water, thus giving •workmen access to any part of the !hull or deck, the same as if the lship were being overhauled on land. !This is achieved by admitting water to sealed compartments so that the 1drydock submerges. When this is . accomplished, the damaged vessel !is floated over the dock or the dock 'is submerg~d under the vessel. Thc:1 water is pumped out of the compartments, and the drydock, with the ship under repair now nestling on it in a rack, ar.ises to the surface. ,In this position, the damaged ship lis completely out of the water, with t:ts hull exposed, and examination or ~epair is made possible. ! l mm==========cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc= .. / i New Compass Helps Pilots Hold Course Have you ever been misled in the woods because you read your pocket compass when it was too near your ax or rifle? If so, you can understand why heavy metallic armor around fighter-plane cockpits made fit necessary to adopt a kind of com·, pass that could be located in a wing tip, or the tall; but read in the cockpit. Such a remote-indicating comlpass is now being manufactured. Such compasses offer other advantages in that one compass unit may have several remote indicating detajls so the navigator or other memers ot the crew on large planes an have the same information as he pilot. Permanent magnets in the compass unit, placed in a wing tip or the tail of the plane far from the plane's disturbing magnetic effects, line themselves up with the earth's magnetic field. These magnets affect the electrical voltages in a wire coil so that corresponding coils in the one or more indicators in the cockpit move pointers over a dial in ~ exactly the same directions as the ,compass.

Frosty Thirst-Quenchers Are Party Fare (See Recipes Below) Light Refreshments Looking for an easy way to return your social obligations? This is the season for it, because entertaining can be cool, simple and still lovely. All fqod can be point easy and fun to fix because it does not require standing over a hot stove to have it ready. For the simpler type of party, rely heavily on cooling thirst quenchers with perhaps a few cookies or small cakes arranged attractively on a platter. If the party takes the place of dinner, you might have several substantial salads. Try serving on the lawn or garden, buffet style, and save strain on housekeeping. You will want to suggest coolness in your table settings. Blues and greens are very comfortable and you can relieve the monotony by having flowers in whites, pink or y<>llow, whichever goes best with what you have. I've picked out some especially good beverages for this season. Don't use your supplies of canning sugar for such things as this. If you can manage to purchase ice cream and sherbet for the drinks, do so and save the sugar where it's most needed. Orange Cream. (Serves 6) 4 egg yolks 4~ cups orange juice 1~ cups cream or rich milk Sugar, if desired Beat egg yolkli until light, add orange juice and blend thoroughly. Pour into glasses and stir in cream. Sweeten to taste, if sugar is needed. Serve at once. Party Punch. (Serves 8 to 10) 1 cup freshly made tea 1 cup sugar 2 cups water 1 cup orange juice 1 cup sliced, sweetened strawberries ~ cup lemon juice 1 pint carbonated water Pour hot tea over sugar, add water. Cool. Add orange and lemon juice and strawberries. Just before serving, add carbonated water. If served in punch bowl, add thin slices of orange. Orange Punch. (Serves 6 to 8) 1 pint orange ice 4 pints dry ginger ale Crushed ice Maraschino cherries Beat orange ice 'B.nd ginger ale together. Serve in glasses with crushed ice and cherries. Fruit Lemonade. (Serves 6 to 8) 1~ cups light corn syrup (Serves 6) J_{J cup water Juice of 2 lemons Juice of 2 oranges ~3 cup pineapple juice 4 tablespoons cracked ice Lynn Says Easy Sips: Next time you have iced tea, flavor with honey instead of sugar and serve with lemon and orange wedges. It's delightful. If you have leftover fruit juices, coffee or tea, make ice cubes with them. Then frosty drinks will not have that watery flavor. Bits of fruit, berries or mint sprigs may also be frozen in ice cubes to make them attractive. For a good afternoon pickup, try chilled tomato juice with ginger ale or, use apricot nectar with a dash of lemon juice. Iced coffee takes on a party touch when topped with meringue and sprinkled with cinnamon. Lynn Chambers' Refreshment Suggestion 4 cherries Few slices of banana 1~ cups ginger ale Boil together syrup and water for 2 minutes. Set aside and cool. Pour one-half cup of the cooled syrup into shaker or large jar, add fruit juices and ice and shake. Fill glasses about half full of the mixture and complete with ginger ale, remaining syrup, slivered cherries and banana. Cookies to go with the cool drinks should be tasty but sugar-saving. You'll like both of these suggestions: Fudgies, (Makes 4 dozen 2-inch cookies) ~ cup shortening Y2 cup sugar Y2 cup dark corn syrup 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 egg 2 squares chocolate 2 cups flour Y2 teaspoon soda 1 teaspoon saJt Y2 cup buttermilk or sour miJk o/i cup nuts Cream together sugar and shortening. Add syrup gradually, beating after each addition. Blend in vanilla. Add egg and beat until light. Add melted chocolate. Sift together all dry ingredients, then add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating until smooth after each addition. Blend in nuts. Drop by spoonfuls on greased baking sheet. Bake in a moderate, (350-degree) oven. (Onehalf cup cocoa may be used in place of chocolate. Sift with flour, soda and salt.) Almond Jam Bars. (Makes 2% dozen mediumsized bars) ¥2 cup shortening ¥! teaspoon almond extract ¥2 teaspoon vanilla ¥:! cup corn syrup or honey 1 Y2 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/z teaspoon salt ¥2 teaspoon cinnamon ~ teaspoon cloves 1 egg % cup jam Mix together shortening and extracts.

Spread half of batter on greased, shallow pan. Spread jam over batter. Cover jam. with remaining batter. Bake in a moderately hot (400-degree) oven 2530 minutes. Cut in bars. Here's a light layer cake that's lovely for more elaborate parties. Spread marshmallow filling in between and on top, then sprinkle with shaved nuts and candied cherries: Swedish Layer Cake. 5 whites of eggs ¥2 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 cup sugar cup cocoa ¥:: cup flour ¥2 teaspoon vanilla Beat eggs until foamy, add cream of tartar, sugar and cocoa and beat well very stiff. Add vanilla, fold in sifted flour and place in 2 shallow, buttered pans. Bake in a moderate (350-degree) oven about 20 minutes. A good cookie type of sweet for summertime is this one that is sugar-saving, too. Melt about 2lh cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips in the top part of a double boiler and then mix in 3lh cups wheat flakes. Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper and allow to cool.
