Acts To Halt Disposing Of Refuse In Vacant Lots WOODBRIDGE — A concerted drive to.halt the dumping of gar- bage and rubbish on empty lots in the Township has ;been started by the Board of Health and persons caught in this illegal'practice will be arrested and fined, Acting Health Officer Leonard Fischer warned today. , .', '.-.-"' Many complaints, have 'been re- ceived during the past few-months of dumping on private and mu- nicipally owned property creating health hazards. Mr. Fischer said yesterday there is only one legal dumping ground in the Township, which is located in Keasbey, off v > Smith Street.-. However, persons wishing to dump refuse on the Township dumps must first secure permission from the Board of Health officer who will make the necessary arrange- ment with the garbage contractor, Mr. Almasi, as- all garbage must be covered by dirt. Residents who reside next to empty lots and who find anyone dumping there are urged to notify Mr. Fischer at once by calling Woodforidge 8-1200 and asking for the Board of Health office. If the illegal dumpers are using a car residents are urged to jot down the license nuiuioer. ' Ranfcin Investigates At Monday .night's meeting of the Board- of Health, Police .Com- missioner Herbert B. Rankin. said he had investigated several places and found them unsightly. He said the .police department would co- operate in the drive. Committee- man James 'Schaffrick said 'the Road Department had endeavored to cover many of the unsightly i>i)ots, but felt that "not much can be done operates.' unless everyone co- Rogers Hints Racing Commission Will Not Change Stand In Granting License To New Racetrack Mere Spirited Clash Between Toolan And Board Head Marks Trenton Hearing EARITAN TOWN-SHIP—After a spirited meeting- in Trenton yes- terday in which the sentiment was overwhelmingly against the estab- lishment of a race track on Route 25 here, John R. Rogers, of Far Hills, chairman of the State Rac- ing 'Commission hinted that the Board would not change its stand in granting the license. Officially the commission reserved decision. Toward the end of the hearing Mr. Rogers stood up and said: "It's been nice to have you peo- ple here. Down in Camden a few years ago, the Y. M. C. A., the ministers and the newspapers also hammered the daylights out of us . . . but we granted the license." Many therefore walked out of the session convinced that Raritan Township would have a! race track. A lively clash between iState Senator John B. Toolan, chief spokesman for the foes of the track, and- Mr. Rogers started off the hearing: The latter bluntly asked Senator Toolan: "Do you oppose horse racing?" "No," replied the Senator. "And I want to make it crystal clear I votedi foi- horse racing. But I think it's a sad state of affairs when a State Racing Commission grants a permit without a public notice." "Now you sent me a letter," Rogers continued, "in which you said you. thought the racing com- mission in this Raritan Township matter had 'put something over.' " SILVER WEDDING .RAEITAN TOWNSHIP Mr. and Mrs. Howard Carter, Liberty Street, celebrated their 25th wed- diing anniversary with a dinner party in New York City. Among the-guests were Mr. and Mrs. Wal- ter Qstergaard, Sr., Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Carter and Mr-, and Mrs. Walter, Lund. : ; Eisenhower MedatCoveted Prize Scouts In Paper Collection Those Turning In lfiOO Lbs. ToReceive Award; Drive Slated Suni&y WOODBRIDGE — Sunday will be Eisenhower Boy Scout Waste Paper Collection Day in Wood- bridg'e Township. Residents of the Township are asked to place their .waste paper at the cui'b before 1 P. M., when the iSeouts will collect it with the aid of donated trucks.

Cops Drag Sound Today For Body Oi Elizabethan SEWAREN — Coastguards- meo and local police are drag- ging the Sound in the area around the Ferry Street dock this morning in an effort to find ^ the body of Robert M. Pareis, 53, 46S Union Avenue, Eliza- beth, -who is believed to "have jumped off the dock." Pareis' brother, Clifford, 340 Huntingdon Road, Elizabeth, came to police headquarters last, night and reported he had found the f owner's car aban- doned near the dock and "was of the opinion that Robert had jumped off the dock." Police have determined that Robert left home yesterday morning to go to work in Lin- den. "Lick the Waste Paper Crisis" has become the campaign motto of the Township's Boy Scouts who will collect waste paper Sunday in answer to the WPB's urgent plea for more salvage. To every Cub Scout and Boy Scout collecting 1,000 pounds of paper will go a bronze medal the Boy Scout-General Eisen- hower Waste Paper Campaign award pictured above — at- tached to a red and white serv- ice bar. "I did," Senator Toolan re plied. "Well, I resent that," Mr. Rog- ers shot ibacik. "Sentiment of People" "It is the -sentiment of most of the. people in Middlesex 'County," Senator Tool-art went on. "I have too much respect for the members of. this commission, however, to think 1 that they were motivated by anything improper. Yet you can't avoid the inference." George R. Morrison, New Bruns- wick lawyer and former judge and assemblyman, interrupted to ask how it was that race track promoters purchased options on 450 acres in Raritari Township without anyone in New Brunswick knowing it—not even Senator Toolan. "I'm not responsible for what your Senator doesn't know uf what's going on in his own coun- ty," Rogers retorted. "In all my legislative career," Morrison said, "I've neVer heard of anything being put through so swiftly as this." William N. Varker, of Phila- delphia, a consulting engineer who designed Camp Kilmer, represent- ed Williaan J. Brewster, wealthy Hackensack contractor, who with two associates in the north Jersey Racing Association, holds a pro- visional license for the new race- track. Mr. Varker explained he was hired by Brewster to survey all available sites in New Jersey an<j advise him where was the best place to build and opei-ate a race- track. Did Not Tell Anyome "We never told anyone what the land was for," he said-, "not even the agent, Mayor Walter Christen- sen of Raritan Township who ob- tained the options. We. were afraid publicity would mean we must.pay exorbitant .prices. As it was we are paying a relatively high price for the land." Thomas L. Hanson, Township atttorney, declared that the Rari- tan Township Commisisoners una- nimously favored -the ' racetrack. Also for it, was Thomas Swales, Sr., who declared "everybody, in Raritan Township is jubilant atoout this racetraek-^or at least 95 per cent of. them. That's .the/truth."

Rogers Hints Racing Commission Will Not ChangeStand In Granting License To New Racetrack Mere

Spirited Clash BetweenToolan And Board HeadMarks Trenton HearingEARITAN TOWN-SHIP—After

a spirited meeting- in Trenton yes-terday in which the sentiment wasoverwhelmingly against the estab-lishment of a race track on Route25 here, John R. Rogers, of FarHills, chairman of the State Rac-ing 'Commission hinted that theBoard would not change its standin granting the license. Officiallythe commission reserved decision.

Toward the end of the hearingMr. Rogers stood up and said:

"It's been nice to have you peo-ple here. Down in Camden a fewyears ago, the Y. M. C. A., theministers and the newspapers alsohammered the daylights out of us. . . but we granted the license."

Many therefore walked out ofthe session convinced that RaritanTownship would have a! race track.

A lively clash between iStateSenator John B. Toolan, chiefspokesman for the foes of thetrack, and- Mr. Rogers started offthe hearing: The latter bluntlyasked Senator Toolan:

"Do you oppose horse racing?""No," replied the Senator. "And

I want to make it crystal clear Ivotedi foi- horse racing. But Ithink it's a sad state of affairswhen a State Racing Commissiongrants a permit without a publicnotice."

"Now you sent me a letter,"Rogers continued, "in which yousaid you. thought the racing com-mission in this Raritan Townshipmatter had 'put something over.' "

Cops Drag Sound TodayFor Body Oi Elizabethan

SEWAREN — Coastguards-meo and local police are drag-ging the Sound in the areaaround the Ferry Street dockthis morning in an effort to find ^the body of Robert M. Pareis,53, 46S Union Avenue, Eliza-beth, -who is believed to "havejumped off the dock."

Pareis' brother, Clifford, 340Huntingdon Road, Elizabeth,came to police headquarterslast, night and reported he hadfound the f owner's car aban-doned near the dock and "wasof the opinion that Robert hadjumped off the dock."

Police have determined thatRobert left home yesterdaymorning to go to work in Lin-den.

"Lick the Waste Paper Crisis"has become the campaign mottoof the Township's Boy Scoutswho will collect waste paperSunday in answer to the WPB'surgent plea for more salvage.To every Cub Scout and BoyScout collecting 1,000 pounds of

paper will go a bronze medalthe Boy Scout-General Eisen-hower Waste Paper Campaignaward pictured above — at-tached to a red and white serv-ice bar.

"I did," Senator Toolan re plied."Well, I resent that," Mr. Rog-

ers shot ibacik."Sentiment of People"

"It is the -sentiment of most ofthe. people in Middlesex 'County,"Senator Tool-art went on. "I havetoo much respect for the membersof. this commission, however, tothink1 that they were motivated byanything improper. Yet you can'tavoid the inference."

George R. Morrison, New Bruns-wick lawyer and former judgeand assemblyman, interrupted toask how it was that race trackpromoters purchased options on450 acres in Raritari Townshipwithout anyone in New Brunswickknowing it—not even SenatorToolan.

"I'm not responsible for whatyour Senator doesn't know ufwhat's going on in his own coun-ty," Rogers retorted.

"In all my legislative career,"Morrison said, "I've neVer heard ofanything being put through soswiftly as this."

William N. Varker, of Phila-delphia, a consulting engineer whodesigned Camp Kilmer, represent-ed Williaan J. Brewster, wealthyHackensack contractor, who withtwo associates in the north JerseyRacing Association, holds a pro-visional license for the new race-track. Mr. Varker explained hewas hired by Brewster to surveyall available sites in New Jerseyan<j advise him where was the bestplace to build and opei-ate a race-track.

Did Not Tell Anyome

"We never told anyone what theland was for," he said-, "not eventhe agent, Mayor Walter Christen-sen of Raritan Township who ob-tained the options. We. were afraidpublicity would mean we must.payexorbitant .prices. As it was weare paying a relatively high pricefor the land."

Thomas L. Hanson, Townshipatttorney, declared that the Rari-tan Township Commisisoners una-nimously favored -the ' racetrack.Also for it, was Thomas Swales,Sr., who declared "everybody, inRaritan Township is jubilant atooutthis racetraek-^or at least 95 percent of. them. That's .the/truth."

a truck owned by David Kotter inNew Brunswiek and drove it toMonmouth Junction where theyditcfied the truck and stole a sedanowned by Raymond Wacker.

Wacker arrived on the scenejust as the Fords youths drove offand gave chase. Other men joinedthe hunt, one armed with a shot-gun. The boys evidently becamefrightened, abandoned the ear andran for the woods. The man withthe shotgun opened fire and a few•of the pellets struck Christensenwho halted. He was taken into cus-tody by the troopers and uponquestioning told the names of theother boys.

Troopers came to Woodbridgeand the others were picked up. bylocal police and turned over to the•State authorities.

Christensen was arrested oncebefore in Woodbridge on- a simi-lar complaint. Jogan and the

j minor youth were picked vp hereand turned over to the South Am-boy police on a complaint of steal-ing a car. Murphy, according tothe police, is the «nly one of thefour who does not have a previousrecord.

War's casualties are now put ata total of 859,587.

FARMERSWhile farmers plan to plant al-

most as much land as in 194 4 tohelp meet rising food require-ments, the 1945 production of allfoods is expected to be from fiveto ten per cent below 1944. Thisis largely because of a lower levelof production of livestock productsand to a lack of adequate man-power on the farms.

She Is Proud Of-Her-Grand PianoThe wish to own a fine piano is a laudable ambition. There is perhaps nothing elseyou choose for your home that will outlast a good piano. Surely, nothing else willi>ring as much cultural joy and happiness to your-family. Certainly, a piano should *be in every home where there are growing children.

It is good to know that here, at Griffiths, you can still choose a piano from anassemblage of leading makes in various styles and finishes. Many of the so-called

"used pianos" have been through our. own shops where we employ skilled pianomechanics and use only first quality materiel. Most 6£ these pianos are just as goodas new for all practical purposes. You will find one to suit you among them.

Shorter Rations It Necessary-The increased strain of the war through-

out the world ha;s resulted in a situationwhere civilians in ,the United States mayhave to reduce thejr diet in order thatfighting- men and homeless victims of Hit-ler will be able to eat.

Faced with the. facts, the Governmentshould n'ot hesitate to reduce the food-stuffs that are now available to Americansat home. Regardless of the causes, there•should be no hesitation whatever in assur-ing ample supplies for our fighting menand reasonable assistance to {civilians inwar-devastated areas reclaimed by Alliedarmies.

The people at home will grumble, ,ofcourse, because many of them continue tohave the idea that a nation can fight a warwithout requiring its people to accept dis-comforts and inconveniences. Despite thefact that our food ration is far above thatof our. fighting allies, there will be politicalspell-binders to declare that starvationawaits us and their words will be pickedup by disgruntled people whose main oc-cupation in life is to complain about what-ever occurs.

The bald-headed truth of the war effortof the United States is that not many peo-ple on the homefront have made any sac-rifices. They have taken a few sporadicturns at war service. Most of them, includ-ing workers, professional men and capi-talists, have enjoyed increased incomes,which, in almost every case, exceeds theincrease in taxes and the increase in thecost of living.

The. United States has escaped the de-struction that war usually brings to a na-

. tion and we have had no damage inflictedby enemy bombers. In the main, life on thehomefront has proceeded almost as usual,*with a few scarcities to let us know that weare engaged in two mighty wars. So-faras real sacrifice is concerned, it has beenalmost -an exclusive offering of men andwomen in the armed forces. About theonly people on the : homefront who haveactually suffered are the grieving familiesof the heroic dead who gave up their livesfor their country, its people and their civ-ilization,

; The individual at home should contrasthis, or her, present lot with that of soldiers,sailors and airmen who risk their lives inbattle, accept wounds and the risk ofdeath. They exhibit courage, patriotismand supreme devotion to country. Someof our brave Women, connected with thewar effort, deserve to be included with this

t fine company, but civilians who complainand grumble about minor ^inconveniencesdeserve the eentempt of real Americans.

Army medkal authorities believe thatgliders may eliminate ambulances forhauling battle casualties long distancesover cratere,d roads to hospitals. Theypoint out that the gliders serve a dual pur-pose, because, when towed into battleareas, they carry medical supplies.1

While it may not be possible for everyiwounded American soldier to be trans-ported in a glider-ambulance, the fact thatArmy medical authorities have adoptedthis means of transportation should reas-sUte the loved ones of men fighting over-seas. It emphasizes the care *and solicitudewhich are being showed to wounded men.

Certainly, in this war, .American gen-erals have shown the utmost considerationof their soldiers when giving battle to theenemy and those who are wounded re-ceive the utmost possible in attention andtreatment. 4.

"Brotherhood Of All Services"The triumph of the Marines on Iwd

Jima is described by their commander,Laeut.-General Holland M. Smith, as a vic-tory "by a brotherhood of all services, per-formed in tlie holocaust of battle."

The leader of the gallant Marines in the'hardest fight of their 160-year history addsvery properly: "Let us bow our heads incommemoration of their gallantry."

It might be a, good idea for every Ameri-can to realize that victory is coming to theUnited States, in'both of its Wars, only be-cause of the "brotherhood of all services."

While there is good-natured rivalry be-tween the members of the various servicesand, within the services between the mem-bers of different units, news- dispatchesfrom the various fronts report heroic ex-ploits by members of all fighting detach-ments, including men: on foot, men on theseas and men in the air.

Every individual inVthe armed service,regardless of where h£ is .and what hedoes, so long as he performs his allottedtask in creditable fashipn, deserves someof the glory that rightfully belongs to menwho serve their country and their people.Even some people on the"home front, whoexhibit patriotism in simple tasks, havehad a share in the magnificent record ofour country.

THE • BIG BAD WEREWOLF!

Premature CelebrationsAlready, premature reports of victory

in Europe have been heard in the UnitedStates. At least one- city council and onecriminal court promptly adjourned in cele-bration, only to discover that the reportswere erroneous.

The incidents remind us of the prema-ture peace story that surprised the UnitedStates in 1918. Goming from a major newsservice, the information was widely ac-cepted and there was something of a gen-eral celebration throughout the nation.Subsequently, the error was discovered,and not long afterwards the armistice wasofficially signed by She1 German represen-tatives. , • ' • • • : .

It may be that history will repeat itselfin 1945. The rivalry of broadcasting sta-tions and press associations to get the newsfirst may result in another erroneous"flash" from London or Paris. The public,however, can afford to wait for an officialannouncement before beginning to cele-brate.

Using Glider-Ambulances"This is the swellest break any GI ever

got," declares a soldier wounded in theRemagen bridgehead area, referring to thefact tKat he,' and other wounded soldiers,were evacuated in glider-ambulances•which put them in an evacuation hospitalsome1 sixty miles behind the lines.

The wounded man says that he got"nailed by a Jerry bullet about eight inthe morning and here I am at a hospitalfor lunch." He says that if he had madethe trip by ambulance, it would have beena horrible ride over rough roads and hewould not have gotten to the hospital be-fore nightfall.

The Honor Of The FamilyIt's a large world arid there are many

types of people to make up the populationof the globe. For oddity we would call at-tention to the father in Indiana who killedhis son because he thought the youth haddisgraced the family name.

The youngster, it seems, had been dis-charged twice by the merchant marine foroverstaying his leave. The middle-aged pa-rent considered this a reflection on thefamily honor and shot the son, inflicting amortal wound. ' • V' - • •

Let's not get into a discussion as to themorality of the killing. Few individualswould consider that the father had any.What interests, us" is the intensity of theparent about the family honor. Regardlessof his stern and criminal deed the old manhad something.

How many families are there: todaywhich give three hoots about the familyhonor, especially if it. costs them somemoney to uphold it? How many familiesare there to become disgraced over theshame that often accompanies the disrepu-table conduct of a member of the group?

Leaving the family alone, let's considerindividuals. How many do you know, in-cluding yourself, are ready to make defi-nite and costly sacrifice for the sake ofhonor, as it may be understood by an indi-vidual? How many children, growing up inthis community, are taught that the hon-orable course is the only proper course inlife, regardless of financial or other re-sults ?

Under TMe State House Dome- _ . By J , Joseph Grlbblns'

Hints Of Using GasThe voice of Benito Mussolini, erstwhile

Dictator of Fascist Italy, has been heardover the air, asserting that the Germansare justified "before God and men in hav-ing recourse to every kind of weaponrather than to succumb."

The utterance is taken to mean that theGermans may use gas in their last-ditchstand. It is possible, of course, but wedoubt it. The overwhelming superiority ofthe United Nations in the air guaranteesthat gas, if used by the Germans, willbereturned a hundred-fold.

Nobody knows this better than the Ger-1

maar General Staff. '

One Pound Oat Of SixtyThe United Nations Relief and Rehabili-

tation Administration says that it is onlyasking the people of the United States forone pound of food for war victims to evervsixty pounds consumed in this country.

If this is correct and there is no reasonto doubt it, there will be no hardship if weprovide the food that the Relief Adminis-tration desires for victims of the war. Theaverage American family wastes morethan one pound out of every sixty poundsof food consumed.

TRENTON—Residents of NewJersey will . be given anotherchance to decide whether theywant to.change their 100-year-oldState Constitution next year. Asthe first step in the revived pro-gram of constitutional reform, theLegislature will meet in specialsession on May 21 for the solepurpose of approving amendmentsto be submitted to the people in1946.

Two committees are hard ' atwork deciding what changes areneeded,' as well as the form inwhich they will be submitted at the1946 referendum election whichwill probably be held in Septem-ber o'f that year. One committeehas the task of suggesting changesin the - State's judicial systemwhile the other committee willstudy ond recommend o t h e rchanges in the ' fundamental law.and act as a.filter for all amend-ments." Although . many legislators aswell as county Republican leadersbelieve Constitutional r e f o r mshould be abandoned temporarilybecause, of the overwhelming de-feat it received at the generalelection last November and be-cause'.next year when the special-election will be held is the yearwhen New Jersey residents electa Governor, supporters of the ideaare insistent on anothr try. Demo-crats are expected to line up inopposition to the move, thus cre-ating the theme song of the 1946gubernatorial election.

Unlike last ye&r, 'however, whenthe proposed jiew Constitution•was prepared under strictly Re-publican auspices, Democrats have'minority representation on the two•committees. , On the committeewhich will propose the new court•system for the State, the benchand bar are also represented forthe first time". The minority Demo-crats, are not.expeeted to take anactive part in the drafting of thenew changes in the State Charter.• Official election figures reveal'that the proposed new Constitu-tion was defeated on November 7last by a vote of 663,435 for and789,956 against, or by 126,521votes. Counties favoring the"newfundamental law include Bergen,•Cape May, Essex, Monmouth, Mor-ris, Ocean, Somerset, Sussex andUnion. Republican leaders havehopes of reversing the oppositionsentiment next year by allowingvoters t0 vote separately on pro-posed changes instead of a newConstitution in bulk. , .

..ARCHIE HERRON:—A twicecondemned slayer who cheatedthe electric chair since 1908 be-cause of a technicality in the law,is the marvel of the age to prison-ers at the New Jersey State Prison.He is Archie Herron, known asthe hermit of .the State Prison.

The old convict never mingleswith the other prisoners. He issatisfied to smoke his pipe day. hyday in his cell. The other prisoners

[keep him supplied with tobacco.

GOOD NEIGHBORS

To .THE END THAT: "FRIENDSHIP....THE SPtgIT OFJUST LAW-.-. SHOULP BEaTHERECOGNIZED RULE OFADMINISTRATION BETW££N AMERICAN NATIONS "THE PAW-AMERICAN UNION WAS ESTABLISHEDIN I89O AT THE FIRST INTERNATIONALAMERICAN CONFERENCE,HELD IN WASHINGTON.-

PAN-AMERICAN DAY-APRIL ft 1945

Everyone considers it his indi-vidual duty to send Archie a smallgift; at Christmas.

On July 15, 1908, Herron shotto death the Rev. Samuel B. D.Prickett, retired Presbyterianminister who as a recorder'in Me-.tuchen had committed him to jailfor disorderly conduct. He wasconvicted of murder and sentencedto die during the week of iSeptem-ber 7, 1908. Archie appealeff andthe Court of Errors and Appealsunanimously uphe'd the convic-tion. He '.was then sentenced tohang- during" the week of January25, * 1909. Governor J. FranklinPort granted a couple of reprievesto investigate his sanity.

Time dragged on and the lateJustice James J. Bergen, who pre-sided at Herron's trial, ordered theexecution stayed until further or-ders. Alienists disagreed as'to theconvict's mentality. Justice Ber-gen died in 1923 without issuingthe further 'orders and Herron isstill at the prison, an enigma of thelaw.

In the latest issue of The View-point, the prisoners' magazine, anitem appears about Archie, writtenby a fellow prisoner. It says:

Old Archie says "Thanks againand again and again," for theswell 'Christmas box sent to himby the boys in the South Hail.When we mentioned Santa Clausto him, he dummied up, as he al-ways doas when anyone tries togo back beyond 1908. A flock ofbombers flew -over and we "said."That noise comes from a .lot ofbombers. Archie." His eyes openedquestioningly and we changed itto: "Airships, Archie—you know,flying machines." He looked skepti-cal but he said: "Is that so?"

We told him how they woieprobably flying- to the war. Hehook his head. "War's a lot of

nonsense," he grum-bled. Weagreed with that all right, and wewent on to explain how the planeswould bomb Germany. Old Archiewouldn't go for that. He shook hishead slowly and wisely. "The peo-ple wouldn't stand for that," hefinally said.

If Archie knew what was goingon in ttifT world today, he'd knowhat "The People" haven'E really

changed so much since 1908, butwe didn't try to explain. Thatkindly, gentle old fellow is livingm some long-gone yesterday, ,in alittle village with gravel-pavedstreets, where humble folk comeand g-o, where church bells chioieuhe evening- 'hour o"er the lazy hills.He wouldn't understand the thingsof today.

RED SHALE:—Red shale insections of New Jersey may be dis-heartening ' to Victory' gardenersbut representatives of the buildingtrade expect ft to loom large inthe State's post-war industry.

The red shale belt in New Jer-sey stretches, from Frenehtown inHunteEdon" County to Trenton,and irom Haverstraw on.the Hud-son River ito. Jersey City andBayonne. Its peculiar developmentcan be traced fco the storms, earth-quakes and flood's of 120 millionyears ago. - •

The murders of two Germanmayors appointed by the AMG aregrim indications that the Nazi planof action after their defeat is be-ginning to operate. The first stepis evidently to terrorize any Ger-mans willing to cooperate with theAllies, just as the murderous andsecret Fehme courts did afterWorld War I.

The alibi which (remans habitu-'ally seek after defeat has also beenhinted at by prisoners of war.These cap tivea have constitutedthemselves what is practically acheering- section for -the victoriousAmericans, telling- them that theway is wide open for their entryinto Berlin. The reason? Simplythat the g'ood Germans are holdingoff the -bad Russians in the East,allowing the Americans and Britishto breeze through in the West.Thus the line is being preparedfor a future 'Feuhrer to -tell hispeople that Germany was neverdefeated in World War*!!; it mere-ly sacrificed itself fco have Europeand the world from Bolshevism.

And much to his surprise, theAmerican doughboy has found out,.after three years of blood andsweat that practically every Gev-mafh- he now meets has a relative,in Brooklyn or Cleveland, and hasalways been very fond of UncleSam. One doughboy's classis le-action to this German attitudewas: "That's why I like the French.They .have no relatives in theU. S. A."

* * * ,For many years after the war

the people of the world will haveto fight against the evil Heritagethat the Nazis will leave after theirmilitary defeat. Many an innocentfarmer will pay with his life forplowing1 a field that* the Germanshave mined perhaps many yearsbefore. Right now, thousands ofacres are left idle because of thismenace, in spite of the fact thatfood is the most"pressing need ofEurope today. The Dutch mayhave to spend generations reclaim-ing the lands wantonly flooded andruined by their good Nordic neigh-bors of the Reich.

But it is the fields of economicand technology that the Germanshave laid their most ambitious anddangerous plans for post-war sur-vival. This has been officially re-vealed 'by the statement of ouvState Department analyzing .suchNazi plans. These include the in-filtration of "cultural" experts whowill spread propaganda for goodtreatment for the beaten Germansand cultivate the Nazi poison innew forms. Much German capitalhas found its way to neutral andrecently neutral countries all overthe world, and dummy firms set upto evade exposure. Vital industrialand scientific patents are artfullykept under the control of the Ger-mans.

The battle against the Nazi evjlpromises to be high on the ag-endaof the United Nations for a long-time to came. Much of the successof the future world depends onhow it is handled.

The Argentine declaration ofwaf against the Axis is an amaz-ing- document—straight out of

Alice in Wonderland. It seemsthat the Argentine government hasjust leamed^sbout what happenedat Pearl Harbor on, December 7,1941, and they don't think theJapanese should have done it. Infact, they .atre very mad. But inorder to avoid any misunderstand-ing-, they devote most of their dec-laration to a long statement whichin effect tells the Japanese: -"We're sorry to do this, boys. You

•know where our hearts lie. Wetried to help you as much as wecould, but since you are unfortu-nately being beaten, we've got toloot out for ourselves now and hopon the Inter - American band-wagrfn.". And almost in passing,war is declared against Germany,as the ally of Japan. So now Ar-gentina finds herself on the sideof the angels and is preparing totake her seat at the United Na-tion's conference in San Francisco,

In some quarters in Washing-ton this action by Argentina ishailed as a great vindication ofthe much criticized iState Depart-ment policy toward that eountry.It is difficult to see just where suchvindication lies. All during the warArgentina ,was openly pro-fascistreaping- great financial rewardsfrom the Allies. Fnding1 herself indanger, of .being completely iso-lated at the downfall-of her Axisfriends, she abandons the Axisboat at the moment before itsinks, at no •cost to her, and claims,her rights in the other camp as abelligerent. It would seem thatnow is the psychological momentto exact a more just price in pay-ment for accepting her as a fullscale partner on the Allied side.It would not be too much to askthat Argentina give assurancesthat she .will not play the role <sfchief harbinger of Nazi plans forpost-war survival. The Argentinedeclaration o±' war may have beena great diplomatic triumph forsomeone, but it certainly has notlessened the fascist menace inSouth America. It should seem ob-vious that one of the'lessons of thewar is: You ean't do business withfascism, even after you havebeaten Hitler.

SAVINQSSavings of more than $40,000,-

000,000 were made by the Ameri-can public during- 1944, which wasten times more than its saving'sduring 1940, according to a reportof the Securities aud ExchangeCommission.

Ghost Flying Fortress ^Lands Alone in Belgium

TWENTY - NINTH TACTICALHEADQUARTERS, BELGIUM. —The mystery of the crewless, flak-battered flying fortress which madea perfect landing near here appar-ently with no one at the controls hasofficials stumped. &

The great ship loomed out of thewest recently and settled gently ina plowed field near British gun posi-tions. .

Tommies rushed to the plane andwaited for the crew to emerge. Fi-nally they investigated and found noone , in the plane. There wereno muddy tracks leading from theship to indicate that someone hadleft.

There were reports that threeparachutists had been seen andthat one chutist had landed at a 'small town. ._

Apparently "the ship had come inon an automatic pilot and had•landed with slight damage to onewheel and a wingtip.

Although the fortress probably isflyable the field is too small for atakeoff and- the ship is being dis-mantled.

.Highest M&numeiit.The •••highest monument in the

A UNIVERSAL PICTURE

THE NERVOUS MODERN CHILDIf this restless jittery age does

not soon come to «.n end, the worldwill be crowded with physical andmental wrecks.

Children, were formerly, keptcomparatively quiet during in-fancy and childhood. They werealso put to bed early at night.During the day they played with afew simple toys or romped in chegardens or under the trees.

Today their nurseries are fittedup with every kind of contraptionintended to amuse and interestthem. Ambitious mothers try toteach th'em to fit maps and puz-zles together at a very tender age.As soon as .they begin to toddle,they play in the streets where lifeis a .constant source of danger.

Poor' little things dart back andforth on treacherous skates andscooters, escaping- automobiles,looking and listening at every turnfor the iug-gernauts of death thatstrike so swiftly, maiming or kill-ing. They are tense and on thequivive every moment, for theycannot romp, skate and play where•deadly machines dart iback andforth without realizing that at anymoment they, may be crushed un-der a truck, automobile or motor-yele. -

When they go to school, thework is of necessity under ourpublic school system, so arrangedthat a certain amount must becovered in a given time. They, arestill further stimulated by the of-fering of various rewards or dis-tinction if they attain certainstandards.

The result is that some childreneasily reach the coveted goal whileothers who may have tried equallyas hard and failed, feel bitter andkeen disappointment which is fur-ther aggravated into resentmentagainst the teacher who was inno way .to 'blame.

If you enter a moving picturetheatre where there is a show ofa character which is most excit-ing, filled with fighting and dan-gerous hair - breadth escapes, youwill find the place packed withchildren of all ages, , squealing,yelling, and otherwise giving vent

Varian, oneof the four destroyer escortswhich recently trailed and de-stroyed a German submarine inmid-Atlantic; it has been an-nounced by Admiral Jones .In-gram, Commander-in-Ohief, U. S.Atlantic Fleet.

Zizzag-ging- in a long and des-perate effort to elude its pur-suers, the enemy sub was finallyblown to pieces, in deep water.Debris, oil and personal belong-ings of the crew—such as a songbook and the bowl cf a pipe—toldthe cre\vs of the destroyer escortsthat their hunt was ended. Thefour ships displayed an excellentbrand of teamwork. T'hey attackedthe enemy vigorously. Each of thecommanding officers has commend-ed his officers and men for thecool, well disciplined and skillfulmanner in which they conductedthe operation and action, a NavyDepartment spokesman said.

Before entering the 'Navy, Fl/CKeenan was employed by the New-ark Steel Drum Co. He attendedWood'bridg-e High School. Hewears the American Area andEuropean-Afri.can-Middle EasternArea ribbons for active services.
