 Dresden, Germany, Sept. 21--CUP) An estimated 10000 Sudeten men are in Germany, organized or ready to organize into free corps and spring back at Czechoslovakia-from which they fled.
 They are only awaiting the order.
 Tn 6 visit to two refugee camps, I found them all anxious to start fighting. Today I talked to many of the men in camps where they are being mustered and where off, cials check their records and divide them into groups according to the locality from which they came.
 One surprising thing was that most of these men have seen mili- tary service as soldiers or subordi- nate officers in the Czech army. When l asked how many had had military service, one fine appearing man about 30 stepped forward and said: I'm a reserve officer in the Czechoslovakia army"
 When I asked if he was the only one in this camp, he said: No, there are at least 20 of us here"
 A Nazi storm trooper turned to a group of refugees and said for "all who had service with the Czech army" to hold up their hands. So many hands came up that 1t looked like the whole flock was giving the Naxi salute. Of 150 around us there probably were not 20 who failed to raise their hands, giving an indi- cation of the percentage of those available to starting fighting at once.
 ,Ironically, the Czechs trained these men. I was told that in all about 900 men in one camp had seen serv- ice in the Czech army. So far the camps I visited have not been pro- vided with weapons but they are drilling every day. Most of them are young, sturdy men between 20 and 40. The older refugees and women and children are far less numerous.
 The refugees generally are under tho care of the storm troopers. They arc billeted and fed and otherwise cared for in relief camps.
 Women and children from the Sudeten are being sent to northern Germany. The first transport left Friday and most of them will go to the Island of Ruegen.

 BIBLE REVISION
Professors of Sacred Scripture to Report at
 Coming Congress

An outstanding feature of the Fourth National Cathechetical Con- gress of the Confraternity of Chris tian Doctrine is the meeting of the Catholic Biblical Association of America. Meeting at the Hotel Bond in Hartford, beginning October 1 prominent Catholic exegetes and Sacred Scripture scholars will hold a two-day session regarding one of the most important subjects of Catholic educators today, the re- vision of the Douay Rheims version of the Bible and its translation into the English language, from the orig inal Latin.
 This gigantic enterprise, which may continue for more than fifty years, has already been in progress for some time.
 At the conference in Hartford, the Biblical Commission will announce the expected date when the New Testament revision will be com- pleted. It will also set a date for the beginning of similar work on UAAC 0A0 4CCtdlllCllGs
 In recent publication, Proceed ing of the Biblical Association of the great need for such a revision of the Bible, translated into English, was stressed. The extra care with which such a re- vision is being prepared was being stressed.
 Catholic Scriptural scholars, with headquarters at the Catholic Uni versity in Washington, D. C., have been their efforts to revising the separate books of the New Testa- ment. which history discloses was the work of one man in each case. The Revision Committee is com posed of 20 eminent professors of Sacred Scripture, each assigned to Q small portion of the work, and each professor assisted with a critic. The work of the Revision Commit tee is subject to the censorship Of an editorial board. Two theologians representing the Episcopal Commit tee of the Confraternity of Chris tian Doctrine inspect the work. It then becomes the property of the the Confraternity to be made pulp lie at its discretion.
 The revised edition has long been needed by Catholics. Insistence on strict adherence to the Clementine Vulgate,( official version of the church. is consistently maintained All grammatical defects must be corrected. Obsolete words and forms must be deleteo, but such forms as thee" and thou" and thine" will be retained. Pronouns referring to God will not be capitalized.
 Briefly, the work aims at a more accurate translation of the Bible into an idiom more intelligible to the layman.

Avoid Bad Habits
Avoid bad habits and incorrect
sitting postures: Not only during
school, but in the pre-school period,
the child's furniture should be con-
ducive to erect instead of SLOUGH
ing posture, and a position which
opens up the chest and abdomen
for adequate breathing. / think
great deal too much is made OF
this, and I am by no means con-
WINGED that curled-up child or a
child in slouching position is nee
essarjly laying the foundations for
bad posture unless he naturally has
a bad posture anyway and the
slouching position is a result OF
that. :.
Correcting errors Of vision and
nasal obstruction: These may be
possible and very important fac
tors in bad posture, and all the ex-
ercise in the world will not COM
pensate for a bad astigmatism or
a pair Of large adenoids.
In nearly all the treatises on the
subject, reference is made to the
psychological treatment OF posture
in children. My idea Of the proper
psychological treatment of pos
tural defects is not to nag the child
into self-consciousness or an inferi-
ority feeling about his posture
every minute Of the day. IF you
are perfectly sure there is no I'm.
DERIVING disease, the postural diff.
ficuities will usually straighten
themselves out in time.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 13.-The
new Thousand Islands bridge be-
tween Canada and the United
States boosts onto the front page
an international issue that has
boiled back and forth across the
st. Lawrence river for nearly a
century and a half.
That issue is the proposed st.

Meeting the continents Great
Lakes ports with the Atlantic
ocean, thus making ocean ports of
such inland cities as Duluth,
Chicago, Detroit, Fort William.
Ont, Toledo, Cleveland and Buff
falo.
The deep waterway has been
officially defined as a waterway
with channel at least q feet
deep to accommodate go percent
of the vessels sailing the seven
seas. Anything shallower than
q feet would choke out much
ocean freighter tonnage.
There are two natural barriers
for most ocean tonnage between
the Great Lakes and the Atlantic
ocean.
One is the 30-mile stretch of
roaring International Rapids on
the lower st. Lawrence river.
CThe Canadians have built canals
and locks around the rapids, but
these works accommodate only
smaller vessels requiring IA feet
of water or less.l
The other hurdle is the 30-mile
and Ontario, along which runs
strip of lad separating Lakes Erie
the famous Niagara river. That
river drops several hundred feet
between the two lakes. Part Of
the drop, incidentally, creates the
breath-taking beauty of Niagara
Falls. CThe Canadians also have
built the Welland ship canal
around the falls, but its channel
is only IS feet deep

shooting stars in your head if il
takes a notion TO jump up and

It's simple enough to have the
Navy Field diamond. now being
used by Junior and Senior league
teams. put in first-class playing
condition by laying down a sur
face of clay on top of the uneven
mari now the playing field of the
diamond. The Citizen has been
doing little investigation on this
condition. and il finds that there
are nice clay beds on Big Pine
Key which will suit the purpose
admirably. All that would be
needed is little labor and
truck or so.
Now. the W.P.A. has been very
nice in cooperating in many civic
events recently. We suggest that
committee from the Key West
