Bill snorted. disdainfully, as

When Bill returned from the

and within a very short time had
reached 1000 feet. Child looked at
me and smiled We were fgoing

feet and not be destroyed by our

Remember the CTy4X

THE American navy has ended its annoying habit
l of giving number-letter designations to its war
planes.
1t is rather difficult for the public to become
enthusiastic over the announcement that PBY4X or
SO3C is coming off the assembly line and is the best in
bombers fighters.
Far better are the new names Wildcat "Hediver,"
Mariner" and "Avenger"
There is something in name, Shakespeare to the
contrary notwithstanding.
Had number-letter combinations been given to
American warshps would there have been such glorious
rallyng cries as Remember the CrY4X' or Don't give
up the NY3D?" Hardly!

Adjourn. the Legislature

1T IS the duty of Michgans lawmakers to end their
silly feud and adjourn the 1941 session of the Legis
lsture
Their keeping alive a session that should have ended
months ago has prevented 262 new laws from taking
effect has handicapped the administration by promoting
an atmosphere of uncertainty, and has prompted I'M
healthy back-room politics
In spite Of public protest some opposition leaders
propose continuing the session another go days Their
obvious intention admitted by is to Illustrate the
administration every possible
This is cheap politics More important 1t is bad
government neglect Of obligation to the voters and
taxpayers.
The work of the tott session is completed. Every
necessary bill laud good many unnecessary ones) has
been passed Governor Van Wagoner's veto messages
have been received.
If Governor Van Wagner feels that it would be wise
to allow another $4,000 to raising pay rolls due
to civil service this should be quickly considered
But whether such bill is passed or not, the public
welfare requires that the legislators end their squabble
when they meet this week-and 60 home.

Humanitarian. Alliance

~ ETROIT automobile manufacturers and the JAW
- deserve praise in equal measure for their recently
announced effort TO stem the threatened of
poyment resultant from the wholesale swingover to
defense production.
Their joint pact is dedicated to the patriotic and
humanitarian purpose of holding unemployment to the
irreducbe minimum This campaign will be based broadly
rigid retention of worker seniority in unavoidable lay
offs and postwar adjustment and concerted attempt
to keep migrant workers from invading the Detroit field
and jeopardzing the security of resident employees.
Obviously such program would be impossible of
fufment without sympathetic cooperation between the
JAW and the corporations The fact that the understand
ing does exist is healthy symptom of future labor
agement relationship.
Every possible stress incidentally, should be placed
the stand against migrant workers In their own inter-
est and the interest of all workers this phase Of the ALI
ance should receive national publicity.

New Book About Civil War
VividIy Re-Crea+es Period
BY BENJAMIN DE CAsSERES

too, ought to be slowed down a
bit or cut-out altogether
And l will add as a footnote
to Gallico's declaration of war
that I'd like to see the dear old
grandma face again, the face
with all its wrinkles, for grand
ma, too, has gone "panzer."
Ugh! And BAH
7 POINTED out some time ago
that millions of Americans
could not get defense jobs be-
cause they had no birth certifi-
cate. A government bureau
estimated that there were Co.
100000 persons without such a
paper
William Bradford Dickson
CUncle DickieD of Staten
Island, poet and newspaper man,
tells me that the government
once asked him for birth
certificate in order to settle
some matter in equity. Although
Mr.. Dickson is descended from
-pre-revotutiOnaTy 4 m eT c
stock, he couldn't get anywhere
with Uncle Sam because he had
no birth certificate.
And here's the case Of Philip
Bender of North Bergen, n. j.,
who writes:
II was' born In Philadelphia
Aug. 81, 1882; midwife dead; no
relations to prove that l was
born; was I'm the government
navy yards In the World War as
boss pipe filter and blueprint
reader, etc; been In business in
Jersey City for 20 years.
"N0w trying TO get into fed
eral shipyards, but they won't
give me a job until I get birth
certificate. What must / do to
get job"
| don't know, but surely Some-
thing ought TO be done about
this birth certificate nuisance.
No person is responsible for his
birth, and certainly no newborn
can demand of its parents that
it keep its birth certificate safe.

Saint') Sanders OF the movies,
but those great medieval figures
who have been canonized by
the church?
Here is a short, fascinating
study by John M. Mccklin of
The Passing Of the Saint (the
University of Chicago PreSs).
MIR. hfeckiin tells It's that the
Saint" has passed. that he was
essentially cultural type of
long ago and that the world has
become too realistic 10 produce
any more men like Bernard of
ClairvauX est. Bernardo, st.
Augustine and ST. Francis, three
of the most famous.
Their lives and deeds are told
by Mr.. Mecklin in such q way
that it almost makes me desire
the life Of the cloister. its heroic
self-diScipline and communion
with the spirit of the universe.
The saint, says the author,
was the product of the peasants
call for an ideal superman. We
have "supermen' today but they
are hardly ideals or saints,
An ideal book for both church
mon and for Law readers.
