ANTI-SUB NET
LAYER FUND ASKED

Washington, Jan. 6-(UP)-Pres-
ident Roosevelt has asked Congress
for funds to build the first Amer
lean anti-submarine net layers, 1t
was disclosed today.
The request was contained In tho
$28, lit 900 budget for work Of the
Bureau Of Construction and Repai,
In 194l. It did not reveal the num-
Der or size Of the craft contem-
plated and they were not mentioned
In the regularly scheduled program
Of "a Warships, including two battle
ships, to be started during the next
fiscal year.
It was learned, that experts have
been studying potential needs Of the
navy In this category. Such ships
costing from $4,000 900 to $4,000, 000
(M) each, carry facilities to stretch
various types and weight of nets To
barricade crucial fleet concentra-
tons. harbors and bases against
submarine attacks.
There are several types Of nets
One Is composed Of heavy chains;
another Is Of lighter mesh that ex-
plodes mines when touched by a
submarine; third Is used for
stretching a fence" around ships
anchored temporarily.

above the cruisers gigantic rub
ber-tired wheels.
Meteorological observations will
be taken with a view to finding
out more about South Pacific
weather. Seismographic data will
be accumulated to discover the
origins Of earthquakes in the
Southern Hemisphere. Rocks and
minerals will be collected and
analysed to find out whether val
liable ores in commercial quanti-
ties are present.
SHIP TO OPEN
SECOND BASE
In the mean time, the North Star
will have returned from Little
America to Valparaiso, Chile, to
pick up more supplies, and re.
turned to the Antarctic to estab-
lish the second base. The exact
site has not been chosen, but will
be established according to con-
ditions found.
The snow cruiser, crossing the
pole, will then work toward this
new base. Parties proceeding In
land from the base will probably
meet the cruiser, and when this
junction is made, the first man to
"come out" DR.. Poulter, will fly
back and return to America.
All along the slow course Of the
snow cruiser toward the pole,
complete surveys will be made for
a distance of 900 miles on either
side OF the course by the cruisers
plane.
The cruiser has a 5000-mile
range, and will be provisioned for
a year.
Admiral Byrd, in charge Of the
expedition, boarded the North Star
for Little America at Balboa, @. q,
but will not accompany the snow
cruiser on its trip.

WaHy Grohs Demands
Checkup On Forecast
WOodbury's Famous Philosopher, ETC., Repeats
Prophecy, 'Tts Going to Be Wide Open
Winter" - The Caterpillars Also Say So

Emulating the 5000 or more ra-
dio program quiz conductors you
hear nightly over the air, "Wally"
Grohs, The Democrats prize
weather forecaster, walked in on
US yesterday and said, I'm right
--right-absolutely right"
AND darned If we could doubt
him.
Wally, well known philosopher,
tree expert, student Of bugs, expert
on caterpillars, ETC., etc., who halls
from the wilds Of Woodbury., al
most Knocked us down shortly be-
fore Thanksgiving by saying that
Jim Tyler, Middlebury weather
prophet, whom, according to re-
ports, never made a prediction Of
his own, was a buffer" when 1t
came to predicting the weather.
Wide Open Winter
"Middlebury Jim" had the day
previous to the time Wally spoke
to US, made an alleged" predic-
ton that we would have 20 snow
storms this winter.
"You can say for me-" said
Wally, "that this is going to be a
wide open winter"
And II you don't believe us con-
suit the files Of The Democrat.
Wally actually said 1t.
Well II there ever was a winter
so devoid of snowstorms and as
mild as the present one we can't
remember 1t.
Wally, who Is O student Of box
ing and knows boxing history, says
that this winter Is as wide open as
Camera was for q fright to the
Jaw" or as President Roosevelt Is
for the reception Of a third term
III he can get it,.
II told you we'd have a green
Christmas" said Wally. "Am
right or am I right? Why the hill
sides In Waterbury were greener
Christmas day than the ones over
In County Kerry.
II said. we'd have three fairly
large snowstorms and a few minor
ones, that Jim Tyler does the tur-
key trot with his turkeys to see II
he can get the gobblers' tracks
registered.
"Well what have had so far? The
celestial realm has sent along only
q few fakes. In all the snow has
fallen three times. The first fall
was half rain and half snow or in

APPEAL BROUGHT
ON UNEMPLOYMENT

Hartford, Conn.,, Jan. 6.-(UP)-
The state unemployment con1pecsa-
ton division today appealed to the
state supreme court superior court
ruling authorizing benefit payments
to a waitress who said in job APP
plication she would take any job
but that of a waitress.
The woman, Mrs. Glenna Stella,
said In her state unemployment Of
flee application she was qualified by
education for a higher Job than that
of waitress.
Unemployment Com pensat n
Commissioner Frank r. Odlum held
the woman was justified in refus-
ing to return to waitress Job at $l2
a week, and was entitled to unem-
ployment compensation. Superior
Court Judge John Rufus Booth up
held Odlum's ruling.
The judge said the woman had a
right to improve her status.
The appeal contended Mrs. Stella
had not right in her employment ap-
plication to restrict the type of work
she would accept.

other words just a lot of slush.
The second storm was just a little
blow from up above that didn't
amount to pin point in a 90
pound turkey, which Jim Tyler
hasn't got" Wally meant the tur-
key, not the pin point.
Houdini's Ghost
"Where does Tyler get Off" said
Wally. LET him put up or shut
up. If he gets % snowstorms this
year he's Houdini's ghost.
"As I said, I'm right-right-
absolutely right. When I'm wrong,
check me-"
Well, when a guy is right you've
got to give him credit and "Wally"
certainly has been so far.
Wally by the way uses a cater
pillar as his medium of prediction.
The caterpillar's head, he said, is
yellow, the "fur" on Its back, black.
II the black "fur" goes only quar-
ter way back the caterpillar's back
It's going to be tough winter. If
It's half way back it's going to be
fairly tough but, as Wally says,
this year the fur is right back to
the caterpillar's mufflers and, as
he explained, he Is not talking
about the ones you'd find around
the caterpillars' necks. In other
words he was speaking in "auto-
mobile" terms.
"I'll spring a good spring predic-
ton on you soon," said Wally In
parting.
He was on the verge of telling
us but we told him to save 1t for
the next edition. We can't get 1t
all In one issue Of the paper.
The snow was just starting to
fall yesterday when Wally walked
out. Don't worry about this one"
said Wally, tits another phoney."
He Immediately broke into song
and walked out singing George M.
Cohan's famous song I'D Rather
Be Right Than President"
