Paging "A Politician"

I have been waiting eXpectantly for the local Chapter of the Con- necticut Merit system Association, Incorporated, to disclose the name of the politician" whom one of It's bulletin burps publicized be- cause he refused to sign the peti- ton to get the amendment on the ballot in the coming election un- less he was "cut In" on the so- called Merit System racket" Was he-or she-a Democratic "politi- cian", Q Republican politician, a Deniopublican politician, an or- dinary politician, or . "politi- clan" created out of thin air by industrious imagination of the Friends of Merit CD. So far as I am concerned I do not believe any such person exists. Should | be wrong in my belief and the "poIitician" really has a local hab- itation and a name I would like to be informed Of both. One thing is sure: the Waterbury Chapter, Connecticut Merit System Associa- ton, Incorporated, may describe him as c politician. may even think he--or shea politician" But no one else does or could. No politician" worthy of the name could possibly be quite so stupidly inept.

King George Sees 'Red" ---And Pins Medal On Him
 % < Left Winger Is Ranking British Poet
BY MILTON BRoNNER


 NNEA Service Stan COrrespOndentl
 London, Dec. 9--"The King and the Red"-it might have been called. Translatcd-Ging George VI and W. H. Auden. When the King pinned a medal on the noted left wing poet as reward for his verses, 1t evoked hardly any comment in Britain. In America, if President Roose- welt had pinned medal on a Red songster, the air would probably have shivered and shuddered and shaken with the outcries of the conservatives. But over here they just took the thing in their stride.
 Years ago King George Fifth instituted an award of a Kings Gold Medal for the best poetry of the year. This time the advisers of his son and successor on the throne said young Auden was by far the best man for the honor, so honored he was. It took just three minutes John Masefield - the Kings Canary - in other words, Poet Laureate, presented Auden to the King. The King Inurmured a few words, bestowed the medal and the ceremony was at an end.
 Attended Best Schools
 In a way Auden is typical of the younger generation of Britons who have gone Left wing and pacifist at the gerat Universities. It is reflected in the verses and essays in their college magazines. It Is likewise reflected in their so frequently voting pacifSt in de- bates.
 Auden does not spring from the poletariat. His father, still liv- ing. is a retired Birmingham med- ical officer, who sent his son to a swish private school and then to Christ College, oxford Univer- sity. Graduated from school, Au- den became a schoolmaster. Also he became one of the new and most powerful coterie of younger British poets. His comrades in the school--all of Leftist tenden- cies in politics are stephen Spender, Cecil, Day Lewis and Louis MacNeice.
 Drove Ambulance in Spain
 Auden sympathized with the cause of the regular government of Spain, the government called Red by its enemies. As Eng land discourages its sons from en- listing either in the national or the rebel armies in the Spanish civil war, Auden did the next best thing. He risked his life and served the cause he had at heart by driving an ambulance for months on,the civil war front.

Stamp collecting has not ceased

"A postage stamp is the most-col-
lected subject in the world and its
value increases from year to year Let
us examine the principal reasons for
this growing popularity.
examines them one understands how
1t is that philately knows a success
which is growing daily. First, let us
examine the idealistic side, which ex-
lists in any collection. A stamp COL
lection, like any other collection, is
a precious distraction from material
or moral preoccupations; numerous
are those who find a moments bene-
fetal forgetfulness in the study and
quest of stamp vignettes, from the
heavy responsibilities which they
shoulder daily. King Carol OF Ru-
mania and President Roosevelt are
keen philatelists and King George v
was great stamp collector.
On the other hand, the pictural
side OF postage stamps is OF the most
varied and attractive interest imagin-
able. Each picture brings some his

ment in itself of the economical life,
