Last year the Justice Depart ment cracked down on Bausch and Lomb when it discovered that under a secret royalty agreement the firm supplied the German licensor with a detailed accounting of certain in- struments delivered to the Navy.
 Authorities fear that this may not have been an exceptional case; that the royalty deals may be providing the Axis with a more accurate pie ture of our defense program than any obtainable by whole army of spies.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.
II think I'll run over to the Snil-
| ing Pool" exclaimed Peter Rabbit
Il haven't been there for some time,
so I'll just run over and pay my
respects to Grandfather Frog and
Redwing the Blackbird. Redwing
was one of the first birds to arrive
this year and I've neglected him
shamefully."
Off Peter started, lipperty-lip-
perty-lip, for the Smiling Pool He
kept close to the edge of the Green
Forest until he reached the place
where the Laughing Brook comes
out on its way to the Smiling Pool
in the Green Meadows. Bushes and
young trees grew along the Laugh
ing Brook at this point and the
ground was soft In places it was
muddy. Peter doesn't mind getting
his feet damp. so he hoped along
carelessly. From under his very
nose something shot into the air
with whistling sound. 1t startled
Peter SO that he stopped short with
his eyes popping out of his head.
He caught just glimpse of brown
form disappearing over the tops of
some tall bushes. Then Peter
chuckled. Il declare" said he, II
had forgotten all about my friend
Longbill the Woodcock. He scared
me for a second"
Then you are even" said a voice
close at hand, "for you scared him.

Peter turned quickly. There was
Mrs. Woodcock peeping at him from
behind tussock of grass. Il didn't

Peter. Il really didn't mean to-
Do you think he was very much
Scared?"
Not too scared to come back, any
way" said Longbill himself, dropping
down just in front of Peter. Il
recognized you just as I was dis
appearing over the tops of the
bushes, so I came right back When
very young, 1 learned that when
startled it is best to fly first and
find out afterward whether or not
there is real danger. l am glad it
is no one but you, Peter, for 1 was
having a splendid meal here and 1
would have hated to leave it. You'll
excuse me while I go on eating. !
hope We can talk between bites.
Certainly I'll excuse you," replied
Peter, staring around very hard to
see what it could be Longbill was
making such a good meal of. But
Peter couldn't see a thing that
looked good to eat. There wasn't
even bug or worm crawling on
the ground. Longbill took two or
three steps in rather stately FASH
ion. Peter had to hide a smile
You see, Longbill had such an air
Of Importance, yet at the same time
he was such an odd-looking fellow
He was a little bigger than We'll
come Robin. His tail was short
his legs were short and his neck
was short. But his bill was long
enough to make up. His back was
mixture of gray, brown, black and
buff, while his breast and under
parts were of a beautiful reddish
buff. 1t was his head that made
him look queer. His eyes were very
big and so far back that Peter Won
dered if it wasn't easier for him to
look behind him rather than in
front of him.

What about him?" Gregory
asked, less pleasantly.
She knew then that this man was
too wise to believe the story she
had intended to tell him. She heard
her own voice in rush of words
Mr.. Gregory, you're so good to
all Of us so like father Z.

But what has this to do with
Healey?"
''We-we-we're clipping. That's
It! We're sailing at midnight on the

Gregory's voice dropped to a
dramatic whisper, MY dear child,

She nodded.

Professor ]. L. Brumm, head OF
the Journalism department OF the
University OF Michigan, speaking
on Youth and the Future, at the
general assembly Tuesday in Pease
Auditorium, declared that 1t Is not
the fault OF youth that the people
of today do not have a better
world order. but 1t will be their
fault II they do not do something
about IL. For, Prof. Brumm stat
ed, 1T is your world now"
The speaker explained that youth
is concerned with what lies ahead,
rather than with the past or even
the present, and that II youth
does not possess courage, II 1t fails
to take advantage Of its opportuni-
ties, Hitler will have his way with
the world.
Two kinds OF mentality were de-
scribed-backward looking and
forward looking mentality. The
former belongs to old age, which
puts its faith in the constitution,
and during times OF danger, looks
back with nostalgia TO the past.
On the other hand, Prof. Brumm
said, the forward looking mental
ity belongs chiefly to youth. 1t
recognizes much good In the past
but will not let 1t stand in the way
Of the future. 1t is willing to ex-
pertinent. 1t refuses to believe
everything is learned that can be
learned. This mind of youth is
the creative mind" the speaker
said.
Prof. Brumm believes that the
refusal to cooperate has plunged
Europe into war. He said that
both sides will really lose, no mat
ter what combatant is finally called
the victor. He believes just as
firmly that the peace coming after
this war will be just an interval
between another war or wars, If
the peace plans are dictated or
fostered by backward mentality.
Youth will create a cooperate
world" said Prof. Brumm. He
stated that what is essentially
wrong with the world today is that
the peoples wills are not in har-
nony with their intellects. I'VE
know better than we do. We do
not feel with our hearts what we
know with our heads. Youth is
only in the process of being mold
ed into the image of teachers. and
successful men and women. Young
people find many things stodgy
that age reveres. Youth expert
ments with life. but mostly 1t comes
10 terms and settles down in the
ways it once reviled," he said.
Il earnestly hope that the peace
that shall succeed this war will be
