INQUISITIVE SAL

Hi, Folks:
Well, here we are back in town
after most exciting trip down to
Iowa City for the game last Sat-
urday. On the way down, in
Waterloo, Iowa, the gang that Sal
was with decided to pay a visit to
Beanca Smith barbara Mallory's
charming aunt). None of US knew
the exact location of the colored
section, so we stopped a postman
who willingly gave US the follow
ing reply: well, l don't know
where they all live, but there's a
family in the corner house who's
affiliated with the darkey church
here in town." When the postman
saw the surprised looks on our
faces he blushed and said he was
very sorry but the word just acct
dentally slipped. Well, anyway, we
forgave him, but truthfully speak
ing, we never did find Beanca's
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-11-12

By THORNTON w. BURGESS.
In fact may very dreadful be.
A thing most beautiful to see
Old Mother Nature,

w YHEN jolly. round, bright Mr..
n/ Sun smiles down from the
Wv blue, blue sky after an ice
storm there is nothing
more beautiful anywhere in all the
Great World. No. sir, nothing is or can
be more beautiful. 1t Is as if new
world had been created, a world in
crystal, glistening, sparkling, flashing,
as If millions of diamonds were catch
ing the sunbeams and rejecting them
in flashes of brilliant colors as you
have seen the precious stones in ring
or brooch or necklace do. 1t is beauty
that makes one catch ones breath.
But this beautiful world of spar
king crystal is as dreadful as 1t is
beautiful. 1t doesn't seem as If any
thing so lovely, so wonderful, can be
dreadful, but so it is. There is moth
ing through all the year that is more
dreaded by the furred and feathered
folk of the Green Forest and the
Green Meadows, the Old Pasture and
the Old Orchard, than an ice storm.
To many of them it all too often
means hunger, suffering, perhaps
death. Little and big suffer alike. You
see. 1t is as it would be to you if all
your food was in refrigerator, with
the door locked and the key lost. You
would know that the food was there,
but you wouldn't get it. 1t Is just so
with the people of the Green Forest
and the Green Meadows during and
after an ice storm They know where
the food is, but they cannot get it.
This is especially true of the feathered
folk.
Among the little people who wear
fur are some who do not suffer. They
are the thrifty ones-the Squirrel
cousins. Whitefoot the Wood Mouse,
Paddy the Beaver. Jerry Muskrat. in
his snug house in the Smiling Pool,
goes and comes at will beneath the
ice and can get what he needs to eat.
So Jerry cares nothing for ice storms
or storms of any kind. Buster Bear
Is asleep. So is Johnny Chuck. 1t is
the same with Bobby Coon and Jimmy
Skunk. Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel,
thrifty though he is, sometimes suf-
ers. for the acorns and nuts he gath
cred for the Winter were not stored
in hollow log or hole in a tree, but
were buried singly under leaves or in
soft ground. He can get to them easy
enough when covered with soft snow,
even though it be a couple of feet
deep, but when there is hard, icy
crust, Happy Jack may go hungry.
Peter Rabbit, Jumper the Hare, Reddy
Fox, Lightfoot the Deer and Yowler
the Bobcat have no we'll filled store
houses and an ice storm means great
hunger. However. they can 60 for a
longer time without food than can
the feathered folk.
Over in the Green Forest, where
they make their home. Thunderer the
Grouse and Mrs. Grouse were hungry
and there was nothing to eat. Every
thing was covered with ice. Trees were
bent with the weight of it. Limbs
had been broken from some of them.
Evening star., 1937-01-01
Bedtime Stories
Beautiful But Dreadful.

You see, trees suffer also at such q
time.
We must do something" said
Thunderer to Mrs. Grouse. There Is
nothing here for us to eat, not even
buds on the trees, and there won't
be right away"
I'VE might 60 over to the Old Or
chard," suggested Mrs. Grouse. "Ap-
pie tree buds always are good eating
when there is no other food
But they are covered with this
dreadful ice. just as Is everything
else" said Thunderer.
Perhaps they are. and perhaps
not" replied Mrs. Grouse. Jolly,
bright Mr.. Sun has been shining on
them all morning, for those trees are
out where he can get at them. Perhaps
he has melted the ice from some of
them. Come on; let's CO."
But it is broad daylight, my dear.
Do you realize that?" protested Thun-
derer.
What of it?" snapped Mrs Grouse
somewhat sharply. If we stay here
we will starve If we don't freeze to
death, and no possible danger over
there can be worse than that. Be-
sides. I don't believe there Is any dam
ger there unless Terror the Goshawk
Evening star., 1937-01-01

should appear, and 50 far this Winter
he hasn't been around. I'm going,
whether or not you do"
With q roar Of her stout wings Mrs.
Grouse took to the air and headed for
the Old Orchard. Thunderer hesitated
for o minute. and then followed. And
so 1t was that little later that day
Farmer Browns Boy discovered the
two Green Forest folk pecking at buds
in the Old Orchard and was reminded
that at such q time even the most
Independent Of the Green Forest folk
need help. He straightway put out
some grain for those Grouse.

ZION PARTITION
TO Be ACCEPTED
FOR NEGOTIATION
Concessions Expected
Through Talks

ZURICH, Switzerland, Aug. 6
classification of a Jewish
state through partition of Pales-
tine will be accepted by the World
Zionist Congress by at least a two
thirds majority, according to all
indications today.
Acceptance, informed observers
said, however, will not involve ap-
proval of the British royal COM
missions grounds for reaching the
decision that Palestine must be
split-the hopeless irreconcilabiity
of Jewish and Arabian claims.
Nor will the Zionists' verdict, 1t
was stated give President DR..
Chain WeiZmann unfettered pow
ers to accept whatever Britain is
prepared to offer. Jewish execu-
tives will be left free to negotiate
with Britain for sufficient area
of land, also other conditions
notably substantial economic de-
Velopment.
U. S. Delegates Agree
The American delegation early
today decided to vote for the la
borite resolution giving the exccu-
tive committee the necessary pow
ers to negotiate. This action
broke long deadlock which had
split the Americans.
The majority of the United
States delegation now agrees on
the principle of negotiation, but
favors calling a specially elected
congress to ratify any agreement.
American non-ZionistS, led by
the New York banker, Felix War
burg, who has representatives
here, are watching developments
with anxious interest. They may,
it was said, leave the Jewish
agency in the event congress votes
in favor Of partition.
Rabbi Wise to Speak
The attitude of Rabbi Stephen
S. Wise, of New York, and other
opponents of the split will be indi-
Gated today or tomorrow night
when they speak in the general
debate.
Meanwhile it appears that the
congress will last a fortnight.
Turning to other matters, the
congress today had before it
report Of the executive meeting
asserting that continuous perse-
cution" Of the Zionist movement
in the Soviet Union had re-
suited in a decline in Jewish
national feeling there.

MOTHER KILLED { TWO DAUGHTERS
 Md ,Yys.'Af Wife of Coal Miner Beat Them to Death-Tells
 Her Neighbors

Clearfield, Pa, March 5-(U.Po- Mrs. Jennie Galley, 4l-year-old wife of coal miner, today beat her two daughters to death with Q mechan- ic's hammer, then told neighbors what she had done and waited for police to arrest her. Mrs. Galley readily admitted that she beat her daughters, Virginia, l7, and Marie, 5. over the head and. stood beside them until they died. District Attor- rley Carl A. Berlin, who investigated the tragedy in a small miners cot- tage at Hawk Run, l0 miles east of Clearfield, said the woman's mind "cracked" this morning.
 Mrs. Galley waited until her hus- band, Turias, 42, and her son Gus. tov, p, had gone to work in a coal mine. Then she stepped into the bedroom and to the side of the bed where her two daughters slept.
 The oldest girl, sleeping face down to protect a fresh permanent wave she had received the day be- fore, jumped up as the first blow was struck.
 'My God, mother, somebody's hit- ting me-" she screamed. The young CT sister awoke and screamed also. throwing her arms around Virginia.
 The mother, according to Berlin, struck down the young sister and then renewed her attack on the old CT girl.

victory dinners throughout the country. He attacked the supreme court and the judiciary directly and he promised to do so again in his flreside chat to the nation scheduled for March g and as many times thereafter as he felt necessary to achieve his purpose of making democracy work.
 Who Held Veto Power
 "You knew who assumed the DOW CT to veto and did veto," the first new deal farm and labor legislative programs, he said to his audience last night. "If we do not have the courage to lead the American peo- pie where they want to go, someone else will-if we would keep faith If we would make democracy Suc- ceed, I say we must act--NOW." Mir. Roosevelt flatly rejected compromise or long delay in the judiciary re- organization program which he said was essential to ensure enactment of social and economic legislation. He made it plain that he was in the fight to the end and that he would fight hard.
 No Candidate In 1S4O s
 He also made plain that he would net Do a candidate for a third term Fisf 1y40. The UppoSitiotl coalition dis- cussed efforts of the administration to lire up the support of farmers and labor. It was suggested that the activities Of Major George L. Ber- rvs organization, 'labor's ilon-parti- san league, should be discussed itl the senate debate.

 Many have called me to tell me of their complete satisfaction with their transactions involving the Townsend dollars.
 Nearly 100 letters arrived during the first three days of this experi- ment. A great many of the letters seek information and some even think that the club in its experi- ment is using scrip instead of Uni- ted States collars.
