'I0vE AND KISSES"
 NAME I5 MISN0MER

AUBURN, Cal, Feb. 15-A jug of wine, Love and Kisses and a prize chicken combined to create quite furor in the barn of L. P. Dorsey.
 Love and Kisses, a twenty four year-old Negro resident of the Camp Flint state relief camp, who insisted that is his correct name, was jailed on charges of oyerabun- dant intoxication.
 All l did was go into the barn to sleep it off" complained Love and Kisses. First a COW kicked me and then a big bird flew in my face. When I grabbed the bird it broke in two"
 The Negro was traced by his coat, which he left in the barn as he retreated precipitately after wringing the neck of Dorsey's prize hen.

GEHR!G CAUSES FORMATION OF
 NEWEST LEAGUE

ST. LOUIS. Feb 15, George MoQuinn, the St. Louis Browns first base stylist, was in a jocular mood.
 "Over in the International League, we used to talk of forming a union of the first basemen that Lou Gehrig was preventing from even having a trial with the Yankees. At one time or other, the Yankees owned Buddy Hassett of the Bees, John Mccarthy of the Giants, Les lie Power, formerly of the Giants but now with Baltimore. Gabrielson, last with Seattle Ellsworth Dahl gren. warming the Yankee benches, and myself, everyone of us believing he was a big leaguer but lacking the chance to break in because of Gehrig.
 Waitin' for Lou
 Iron Man?" continued McQulnn fIn say My friends used to kid me by saying Doesn't Gehig ever have the humps, whooping cough or measles? Why don't you send him letter telling him he better take 8 vacation or else?
 Last September, Willard Hersh- berger, one of our two star catchers at Newark and I decided that one of us would be drafted. I was fourth sn batting with an average of .330 and a fielding mark of .994 while Hershberger batted 1925. Then we learned that Joe Beggs, one of our best pitchers. was eligible to the draft. So we wondered which of the three would be the lucky man.
 Yankee Chainster
 McQuinn had been in and out of clubs affiliated with the Yankees ever since he was nineteen years of age when he joined the New Haven club. He reached Newark in 1883 but always seemed to have in his pocket return ticket to Bing- hamton or Toronto. for, in addition to having Lou Gehrig in the way of his advancement he also found it difficult to dislodge such favor ties as Lou Blue, Johnny Neun and the hard hitting Dale Alexander But the season of 1937 found him actually playing first for Newark without opposition. In fact, his play ing made a third baseman out of Ellsworth Dahlgren. who always had played first prior to 1887

Bewildered by Attitude
OF Foreign Policy Opponents.
To the Editor of The S


AS listen to the almost hysterical de-
nunciation of our foreign policy in both
Houses Of Congress am bewildered and
alarmed. The trusty old lamp of ex-
perience that guided the less timorous
feet of our forefathers begins to fail us
now. Sometimes it burns so low that we
abandon it for crystal-gazing; sometimes
its fitful rays reveal only irrelevant half
truths more treacherous than lies.
Crystal-gazing assures us that the next
war will leave everybody so fat that not
even the victor assumed to be Germany
can do us any harm. II only we forget
Sir Galahad and mind our own business
we shall be sitting pretty on the ruins
of the world. How we'll pleased we shall
be with ourselves or the ruined world
is not revealed.
Irrelevant half-truths increase and
multiply as our fears increase. In two
short decades We have built up COM
plete mythology of the World War. Just
why the role of guileless sucker appeals
to Uncle Sam I do not know. He was
never gun-shy; but his reaction to propa-
ganda, which he sees in every bush, is
that of scared rabbit.
Meanwhile, the central truth escapes
us: That honorable peace, like character,
is byproduct of normal living-of
living without fear in world that is
never without danger. r. D. MILLER.

ties have said can carry more cargo
and more passengers farther and
faster and more safely than any other
airplane in existence today. Like the
famous clippers of an earlier day. it
is an expression Of the genius of
America. It has been designed and
built to serve the commercial and
economic needs of the Nation.
In a world straining its efforts in
the arts of war, the christening of
this giant flying boat is a significant
and happy event; for here is a mes
senger of peace and a means of
peaceful communication among the
nations.
May these clippers of the air mean
as much to Americans as did the sail

earlier day-as much in peaceful
commercial progress, in friendly
social relationships and as much in
national pride and incentive!

The New Clippers

Formal christening at Baltimore of
the Atlantic Clipper, 42-ton flying
boat which soon will blaze the COM
mercial air transport trail across the
North Atlantic, is singularly appro-
pirate.
It was in Baltimore that the Ann
McKim, first of the famous Baltimore
clippers and the prototype of aproud
line of sailing vessels which for many
years dominated the worlds COM
mercial lanes, was christened and
launched a century ago.
The Ann McKim was the fore
runner of magnificent class of ships
which gave America undisputed COM
mercial leadership on the sea because
they could carry more cargo and
passengers faster and more safely
than any other ships in the world at
that time.

If plenty Of birds are your desire in
your garden, do not remove tree be-
cause it is partly dead. Birds can bore
1t easily for nests A dead tree may not
be altogether an object of beauty, but 1t
is highly pleasing to various members of
the great woodpecker family. Bluebirds
usually like such bored nests.
Among the small trees, bordering on
shrubs, liked by birds, are the shadbush
and the blackberry.
The mulberry tree is prime favorite.
Usually the birds eat all the mulberries
before they are ripe. Only in such years
as 1886, when they have cicadas, or "17-
year locusts" to eat, do they permit the
mulberries to ripen.
Evergreens make great appeal. Pines,
spruces, frs, cedars, jumpers, hemlocks-
these are among their favorites
They eat the seeds and sleep in the
trees. Many observers believe that more
birds sleep in the evergreens than in any
other type of trees.
When we get down to favorite garden
shrubs, we find world of bird appeal.
Spireas, barberries, lilacs and almost all
the things commonly planted, such as the
altheas and the strawberries, the mock
orange and the hydrangea, make bird
friends.
Among trees, shrubs and vines which
will help to keep birds around in winter
are the holly, bayberry, so-called burning
bush, the bittersWeet, the various bush
honeysuckles, thorns snowberry, winter
berry and the barberry. The latter is
often undervalued in this respect.
There are two favorite birds which
may be attracted by particular plants.
The famous ruby-throated hummingbird,
which finds itself at home in Washing
ton, loves the gladiolus, especially in red
shades and the humble petunia The
goldf1nch is attracted by cosmos and SUM-
foWers-but SO are many other birds.
X ~
If shrubs are permitted to grow, vines
to become tangled, and certain effect of
Wildness secured, garden will come
nearer attracting birds than the per-
fectly pruned places.
Such an effort cannot be secured over
night, of course. Some gardeners may
feel that it is not desirable, nor alto
gether necessary. 1t is true that many
birds will come to the manicured
grounds, but it can be said with equal
faith that not so many birds will come,
and that nesting will 60 on two or three
times as vigorously in the wild place.
BY wildness. let us insist, we mean only
such an effect as is secured by failure
to lop, prune, cut. clean, rake to the ulti-
mate degree so painful now and then.
Such ''wildness' need not be untidy in
any real sense, but should be close to
the idea of wilderness. Often such an
effect, in the small place, is the finest of
all. not only for birds, but for beauty as
well.

Up to Congress

1t is dlsheartening, although not
unexpected, to find Mr.. Roosevelt op-
posing substantial reforms that have
been suggested as means of reducing
relief costs and improving the eff
cheney Of relief administrations The
Presidents position, as disclosed in
his message asking $l,477 ,OO0,000 for
the Works Progress Administration
during the next fiscal year, is par
ticularly discouraging in that it leaves
the entire burden Of devising a more
economical method of administering
relief-lf there is to be any such
Saving-to Congress. This is matter
in which President should take the
lead, but Mr.. Roosevelt, apparently
convinced of the desirability of the
present system despite its demon
strated shortcomings, refuses even to
consider trial of alternatives.
1t is true, of course, that the Presi-
dent is asking only $l,477 100000 for
next year and that about $2,250,O00,-
600 will have been spent for w. P. A.
by the end of this fiscal year. This
reduction is based on the assumption
that w. P. A. employment will aver
age only two million next year, as
compared with an average employ
ment of about three million persons
this year. While it is to be hoped
that Mr.. Roosevelt is correct in this
estimate, the industrial outlook as a
whole makes it appear optimistic and
suggests the possibility that a def
cheney appropriation may be sought
before the year is over, as has been
the case in the past.
In any event, reduced appropria-
tion based on a restriction in the
scope OF w. P. A. activity because
of improving business conditions does
not go to the heart of the difficulty.
So long as unemployment continues
to be major problem the cost of
relief will continue to be dispropor-
tionate to the results secured until
there is drastic change in the
present system of meeting this
emergency.
The principal change suggested has
been that we return to a cooperative
system of relief, in which RESPONSE
bility for administration would be left
to State and local authorities as
sisted by grants-in- from the Fed
eral Government. This could be
worked out SO the central government
would retain adequate supervisory
power to protect its interests. 1t is,
in fact, the method now being fol-
lowed in a few classes of relief
activity.
In specifically opposing this change,
Mr.. Roosevelt said he believes it has
"as many disadvantages as there are
political units in the Nation" But
until the President sees fit to make
more convincing statement as to
the precise nature of these "disad-
vantages," the impression will persist
that the w. P. A. is more of a pump
printing device than a relief agency.
If that is the case, Congress must be
prepared to assume the entire re-
sponsibility for seeing to it that relief
funds are used for relief purposes
and nothing else.
