There you have it. Not our idea.
Mr.. Carl Haessler's idea!
Go back and read it over again.
Pick out the words that guide you
to the kind of journalism taught
by Mr.. Carl Haessler of the Fed
Grated Press, as it is called.
Nice words are those used by Mr..
Haessler in his course of teaching the
young journalistic idea how to shoot
the works.
Let's have little deeper look. Let's
pick out some words. For instance,
"Plants. Hints. Stalls"
A "plant" is something that needs
no further definition. Anyway 1T
doesn't stand for legitimate news that
happens. It seems to stand for some
thing that is made to happen where
and when somebody wants it to hap
pen for purpose known to the person
who makes it happen. 1t has a certain
kind of smell about it.
"Hints" and "stalls" follow nat
urally, once you start on that kind of
trail. The purpose of stalling is fairly
clear. You stall, let us say, when you
don't want to "come clean"
Well, there is very little stalling in
Mr.. Haessler's outline-and very little
covering up" which is another one
of the nicely descriptive words in the
outline. Why should one "cover up
in labor publicity? Perhaps reporters
might ask Mr.. Haessler about that
when he offers them some "labor pub
licity."
But, according to the outline, when
reporters come you should know how
to "dodge their questions" and how to

MAGAZINE WRITER SAYS
BEER AIDS CAMP MORALE

New York.-Clarence Woodbury., in
an article in the March issue of "The
American" magazine, entitled "The
Army's War Against Vice." says:
"The mere fact that beer is now be-
ing sold in army canteens is having a
tremendously salutary effect upon the
morale of many of the soldiers, who
feel less inclined to go to town in the
evening if they can get beer at camp
at cost prices"

CAMP MEADE, Nd, Feb. ls.-
With the temperature lowering
around 10 degrees this morning, the
soldiers who caught it hardest were
a detachment OF the l05th Anti
Tank Battalion. from Central and
Eastern PENNSYLVANIA. who had 10
stay temporarily in tents while their
barracks were being completed. The
tents had wooden floors and aprons
and stoves but in the bitter gale
that blew over camp yesterday, some
of the men had a battle to keep
their canvas from blowing away,
The main body OF the battalion
was arriving today and tomorrow,
with the advance detachment pre-
pairing camp as best 1t could. The
commander. 1t. Col c. L. Supplee
OF Columbia, Pa. had set up tenn
pOrary headquarters in an old
shower bath building, where red
hot stove kept the headquarters on
GERS and men from freezing
This battalion probably will have
to remain in tents until the middle
of March, when its cantonment is
finished The unit includes former
infantry, cavalry, artillery and
quartermaster companies Of the
Pennsylvania National Guard. IT is
not attached to the 29th Division.
but will work directly under head
quarters OF the lst Army The bat
talon, which uses 37-mm. guns,
has yet to receive its anti-tank
weapons.
The Pennsylvanians, an orphan"
outfit are one of the few in camp
without hot water heated barracks.
There are some Regular Army units,
however, still living in tents.

but the actual entry list has not
been filed. The purse for each divi-
sion of the 3-furlong, 2-year-old

who fgfat this measure on the
ground it delegates too much power
to the President.
This bill doesn't delegate any
legislative power to the President, "
Senator Bailey asserted. I'VE have
had quite a battle here in the Sem
ate over delegating legislative pow
er, This is not In the domain of
economies. This is in the domain of
national defense"
Declaring that in times like this
the commander in chief should not
be bound in red tape Senator Bailey
said the power in the bill are not
delegated to a board. adding: God
forbid it ever should be. If you
ever get to handling national de-
fense through board or committee
then school is out"
Senator Hill gave his definition of
the degree Of aid in trying to show
the inadequacv of a mere advance
of S2,000000 900 in credit, as advo-
Gated by some opponents of the bill
Said the Alabama Senator:
''It is suggested that instead of
passing the bill we simply give Brit
ain some cash money with which to
purchase supplies. Some have sug-
gested that we give Britain $4,000
100000 1t is strange how some peo-
pie seem to think that money is the
cure for all problems. Those who
make such a suggestion say that
they are for aid for Britain. I won-
der what kind of aid they are for
Simply to give aid without sufficient
aid 10 meet the c0mpulSion Of the
hour would be disastrous and would
prove worse than no aid at all We
have got to give whatever aid may
be required to enable Britain to win
the last battle of the war and to rid
tho world of Nazi tyrants."
Senator Hill stressed the value of
the British feet as a bulwark
against invasion of the Western
Hemisphere from the Atlantic, and
declared:
without sea power and with con-
troll of the air against them. the
armies of the axis powers cannot
Indefinitely hold even the European
Continent in subjection. Sooner or
later the inevitable reaction against
Nazi slavery and Nazi barbarism
would come and with it the down.
fall of the Nazi tyrants."
Senator Connally declared in his
address earlier that if the democ-
racies Of the world do not hang to-
gether they will hang separately"
Senator Connally said that while
there is nothing in the pending bill
to authorize the use of conveys,
the President could do that as
commander in chief of the Army
and Navy, irrespective of the bill.
He made the statement in answer
to a question by Senator Wheeler.
What kind of a commander in
chief would it be who could not
send vessels of the Navy where the
interests of the United States re-
quire?" Senator Connally asked.
Senator Wheeler replied that he
would show when he speaks later
that court decisions sustain the con-
tention that there is a difference
between what the President may do
as commander in chief In time of
peace and IN wartime.
1T is recognized fact" Senator
Wheeler continued. that the Presi-
dent in peacetime cannot go out
and have the Army or Navy commit
an act OF war"
