MILFORD LAND IS
 WILDLIFE REFUGE
Tract Donated to State to Be Memorial to Donors
 Father

Hartford, May 9.-Receipt of a gift to the state board of fisheries and game of 20 acres of land in Milford for use As state wild-life refuge is announced today by Com- missioner Thomas H. Beck, chair man of the board. The donors are Mrs Mary L. Warner and Mrs Elizabeth Ford of Milford Point.
 The tract borders the extensive marshes along what was once the eastern bank of the Housatonic river near It's mouth. The area comprises uplands for the most part and Is located in what is known as the Eagle Hill section.
 1t is planned to name the site the George Treat Smith wildlife sanctuary, thus establishing 1t as a memorial to the deceased father of Mrs Warner and Mrs Ford. MT Smith descended from the olnd Milford families of Amos Smith and Daniel Treat Smith. The latter. a great grandfather, acquired in the early eighties the Smith Point sec tion of that town.
 The locality Is rich in Connecti- cut flora and fauna and once was the haunt of Connecticut Indians. Adjoining the sanctuary property is an ancient shell mound where Anthropologists have uncovered many relics of the redmen. The board plans to enlist the aid of the Connecticut Nature League in de- veloping the place as model sanc- tuary for not only wild birds and mammals but also wild flowers and indigenous shrubs.
 The tract was donated following recent announcement by the board of an offer to manage suitable pri- vate tracts as wildlife refuges, par. t:cularly for wild waterfowl. Com missioner Beck, in expressing the thanks of the state for the pre- sentation, stated: '"The George Treat Smith Sanctuary will be held a public trust to be maintained in perpetuity for the benefit of all Connecticut wildlife. It will be maintained as fitting memorial Ito one of Connecticut's oldest fam flies and for the edification of fu- ture generations of Connecticut citizens"
 Transfer of title to the prop erty to the board has been com pleted by Homer H. Judd of Bris- tol. chife of the division of land and water acquisition, who con- ducted the negotiations.

SILVER SERVES
 IN USEFUL WAY
Science and Industry Ab- sOrb 90 Per Cent of
 All Consumed

New York (UP)-The discussion over the recent rise in the price of silver discloses the fact that more than 90 per cent of all silver con- sumed is absorbed by science and industry. Although the average man thinks of silver for the most part in terms of coinage. this pre- cious metal serves civilization in countless ways.
 During the general period of the depression when the demand for most commodities declined, the use of silver has held up well. Silver safeguards modern life in many ways. Many new and important uses have been found for silver in the last few years. and the con- sumption of the metal has in- creased accordingly. Incidentally. America consumes more silver per capita than any other country.
 The United States alone uses each year about 25,000.000 ounces of silver in the arts and industries and the quantity is increasing. About one-half of this immense consumption goes into the manu- facture of the familiar silverware. The quantity of silver used in other industrial lines last year increased by approximately 50 per cent.
 It comes as a surprise to learn that thousands of ounces of silver now go into the manufacture of silver soldiers for brazing purposes. It has been found that joints made of silver are often stronger than the metals they join. The United States government recognizing this fact now uses silver solder on it's airplanes and in the construction of naval vessels.
 Enormous quantities of silver go into the motion picture industry. not for making silver screens but in the manufacture of the films themselves. Silver also is used in making food containers. search lights, locomotive headlights, rail- road switches, signals and innu- merable other purposes. Of partic- ular importance, new use that is growing rapidly is the use of silver solder for joining pipes and fittings in various branches of the plumb ing industry. This promises to be- come one of the important fields for the use of these interesting soldiers. According to Handy & Harman, the use of this precious metal Is increasing rapidly and will continue.

5000, 100000 Of the taxpayers money
was to be loaned to States and politi-
cal subdivisions, we ought to be sure
to involve certain percentage Of

One Of the reasons Glass gave for
advocating the original amendment
was that 1t would prevent Public
Works Administrator Ickes from max
ing loans and grants to cities for
the purchase Of existing light plants.
Observers said the substitute would
prevent such transactions.
Some Senators and Representatives
asserted privately the as per cent
labor requirement would impose few
limitations on other types Of projects.
Ickes had opposed requiring the larger
percentages for direct labor on the
ground 1t would block many desirable

Mailing of books and magazines of
all kinds would be affected by the
pending House bill prohibiting the
mailing of information dealing with
contraceptives, Margaret Sanger of the
National Committee on Federal Leg
islation for Birth Control testified yes
terday before the House Post Office
Committee.
She pointed out that the bill not
only would perpetuate the present
confusion between contraception and
pornography, but would permit prose-
cution of both sender and receiver of
non-mailable matter at the place of
receipt as well as at the place of
origin.
She said books and magazines which
deal in any way with the question
of sex, marriage or contraception
could be mailed only by consent of
the postal authorities, leading to pos
sible abuse Of power, with tribute
and with graft"
She urged that all organizations,
publishers and members of the medi-
cal profession record their views on
the pending legislation before the
committee.

MRS. ROOSEVELT
AND SA|T0 SPEAK
Both Make Radio Addresses
in Annual Cherry
Blossom Fete.

Cherry blossoms and fish became q
medium Of international good will yes
terday as Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
and Japanese Ambassador Hirosi
Saito met in a radio broadcasting
studio to participate in the annual
blossom festivities.
Before they started talking, the AM
bassador had an important question
to ask Mrs. Roosevelt.
How about the catch-the fish?"
he asked.
Not very good luck" Mrs. Roose-
welt replied of her husbands Florida
fishing trip. "The other day he flShed
for three hours, and reported that he
netted five of the smallest fish he
had ever seem"
Tells Story of Blossoms.
Mrs. Roosevelt recounted the story
of the cherry bloSsoms-how they
were planted by Mrs. William Howard
Taft and the Vicountess Chinda in
1912 as a gesture of friendship from
the city of Toxic to her sister capt.
tai. She said the blossoms always
make one think Of the friendly and
generous gesture Of the city of Toxic"
Il hope this feeling may grow year
by year between the two capitals and
between all the people of the two
countries" Mrs. Roosevelt added.
The Japanese Ambassador then
made his speech, calling the cherry
blossoms the symbol Of all that the
Japanese adore. In Japan, Saito said,
the cherry blossoms of Spring cause
the peasant to lay aside his plow, the
philosopher his book and the warrior
his sword.
Says Blossoms Denote Amity.
He quoted Kyorai, a famous sew
enteenth century poet, as protesting
against a thoughtless knight: What?
A saber on one who comes to view
the f1owers2"
Japan has presented to you the
recognized emblem Of her soul and
spirit as token Of her friendship and
deep affection for the American
people," he said. Friendship, like
the cherry tree. however, is a frail
plant which needs constant care and
nurture; otherwise it has a way of
withering.
"As the March wind and April
showers play havoc with delicate
blossoms, unnecessary suspicious, mis-
givings and fears, not at all borne
out by facts, often disturb our peace
and friendship"
"A very nice speech-a lovely
speech" Mrs. Roosevelt congratulated
him as he finished.
