HINTS FOR GAS SAVINGS
SLOGANS

Harold Ickes has labored and
come forth with a sticker, II Am

terrific weapon in the drive to save
fuel. Well, to this department it
seems feeble, trite and ineffective,
especially when dealing with human
beings who have shaken off their
real skin and donned the tough hide
of automobilists. Nobody reads the
stickers on a windshield, not even
the fellow who pastes them on.
If they are to be used, however,
why not put a kick in 'em. Some
thing along this line:

NEW YORK.-From somewhere
! = deep in SYPHILIS Cave in Wash
ington comes the whisper that the
government has secretly called
Maj. Yardley Again bert 8. Yard
Assaying Foreign ley, its cryp-
Broadcasts Here? tic cryptic
forgiven his indiscretion in publish
ing "The Black Chamber" dec
ade ago and set him to work again
plucking diplomatic and espionage
secrets from the air.
This is highly interesting in view
Of Major Yardley's frequent predic-
tions that the state department
would have to set up new listening
posts, and carry on where he left
off, in the event Of war or even
the threat Of war.
Major Yardley was SO expert
as q de-coder that, knowing NO
Japanese, he could catch Japa-
nese double-talk ON the air, and
de-code it. When Henry L. Slim
son was secretary of state he
didn't like either espionage or
counter-espi0nage and thought
mo- decent nation should have
anything to do with it.
Hence, Major Yardley's secret
"Black Chamber" in New York,
which must have been something
like the lair of Caglistro, was sum-
marily closed and the major was
fired. Then he wrote his book and
its repercussions were such that
congress passed a law against his
writing any more of the same kind.
In this book, he included de-
coded messages showing how
Japan had been giving this coun-
try the grand run-ar0und during
the Washington arms confer
ence. 1t almost caused a cabi-
net crisis in Japan and made
our state department reach for
its smelling salts.
Herbert o. Yardley, native of
Washington, in his youth a tele-
graph operator for the war depart
ment, became a code expert and
was transferred to the cryptograph-
lie bureau just before our entrance
into the first World war.
Whether it's nice or not, the ext
gencies of the time are such that
the newly organized foreign broad
cast monitoring service is now work
ing a 24-hour shift, assaying about
100000 words of daily foreign broad
casts.

When no one was beside them
Finn told them what compensa-
ton he wanted from them: the
head of Demott O'Duivna.
Then one day Finn saw coming
towards him his woman-tracker

tongue raving. her eyes dropping
out of her head, and he knew
that the day of his vengeance had

Forthwith, Finn summoned GER

they went swiftly towards the

him that the one whose head they
would bring him was within the

Yet though the crackers came
close TO them Dermott's comrades
Of the Fian always found ways
of warning them when pursuit
was gaining on them.
Finn went back 10 his court in
Almu. But his jealousy of Grania
and his hatred of Dermott did not
abate. He put a ban upon Der
mott as an outlaw in hiding and
as a forest freebooter.
~ Then Dermott and Grania had
respite from pursuit. The chief
tain Of a territory they came into
permitted them TO build bothie
and to hunt and fish and gather
the wild fruit in his territory.
Twelve moons they lived there.
One evening when Dermott was
strewing rushes and the soft tops
of pine trees for a bed and GFaifia
was cooking salmon by a stream
they saw a shining figure in the
glade and Dermott knew him for
Angus, his fosterer. And when
he greeted them Angus, looking
on them with grave and kindly
gaze, said.
The counsel give you is that
you flee from this place and from
every place that you are known
in"
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-11-09

Angus went from them and at
the first light Dermott and
Grania left the place that had
sheltered them. The wild deer
was their meat and the water of
the springs was their drink. They
roamed Ireland while Dermott
made a living by the strength of
his hands and the temper of his
sword.
A S FOR Finn MacCuhal, he
~ gave his counsel TO one per-
son only. TO his woman-spy and
tracker Deirdu. She went up and
down Ireland for him, finding out
about Dermott and Grania, where
they sheltered, who were their
friends and unfriends. And by
Deirdu he sent a message TO
ancient enemies OF his clam,
men of the broken Clam Norma,
who would gladly make peace
with him. Then one day when
the chief battalion of the Fian
stood with him at Almu they be-
held a troop coming towards
them.
Our fathers were at the battle
of Cnucha and the Staying of Gu

there was a woman with him.
Foul fall the friends of Der
mott O'Duivna for his sake" said
Finn.
"Dermott O'Duivna is not
there, said Oisin. land it is a
mark of your envy and jealousy,
Finn, to think that he would put
himself in such a place."
Then Finn lifted up his voice,
and cried: N
Which of us is the truth with,
Dermott-myself or Oisin ?"
And the answer Of Dermott
came back:
Thou didst never lie, Finn"
Then the battalion of the Fian
and the troop OF Clam Norma
with Finn himself standing
amongst them saw Dermott stand
on one of the stones of the fort
ress. They saw him raise Grania
beside him. They saw him give
her three kisses while Finn stood
there.
Stings OF jealousy went into
the heart of Finn and he swore
that Dermott should give his life
for those kisses.
But now Dermott, his armor
on, his sword in hand. came to
one of the openings in the fort
ress.

THEY in the hall Weakened in
the early day and it was not
long before II was known to Finn
and the others that Grania and
Dermott had stolen away to-
gether. Finn stood looking into
the goblet that had held the
draught Grania had sent him.
But at last he went outside and
summoned his crackers He babe
them follow Dermott and Grania
and show him the place where
they were. He took his weapon
then, and, giving command to
the troop of the Fian that were
there, went with them after the
crackers.
So they followed Dermott and
Grania, the crackers and Finn
with the troop he had with him.
But Oisin took Bran, Finnis wise
hound, and set her upon the track
knowing that If she came on the
pair she would warn them that
pursuers were coming on them.
Bran came to where Dermott
and Grania were resting in the
wilds of Connacht and put her
head on Dermott's bosom.
This Is Firms hound and the
Fian are near US he said.
Grania shook at the thought that
she would be taken from Dermott
and that he would be slain before
her eyes.
Take warning and fly" she
cried. And those two who now
knew that In all the world they
had only each other headed away
from whence Bran came. They
fled from hiding place to hiding
place that day and the next day
and the day after that.

New ZeoIonders Enjoy Many Social Benefits

A MONG the British Empires \ most efficient fighters today are the New Zealanders, who come from land that has been settled only little more than 100 years.
 The stamp above shows the first settlers landing on Petrone Beach in New Zealand in 1840 and was issued last year to commemo- rate the Tooth anniversary of this event. Within month after the first colonists landed, the British government took formal possession of New Zealand.
 Despite difficulties with the na- tive Maoris, Sir George Grey in- stituted considerable progress dur ing the next 10 years. Self-gov- ernment was granted the new colony in 1852, and four years later the first responsible govern ment was set up.
 Trouble with the Maoris finally came to an end in 1871, when the colonial government adopted a conciliatory policy toward the natives, set up educational facili- ties for them and provided a share in the government. Since then, the advance of New Zealand has been steady, with a great many ,ocial benefits in effect.
