More Rescued Nurses
And Marines Reach
London for Duty
Torpedoine Of Moosdom
Caused Little Confusion,
American Womon Says
Hy the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 17.-Six more
American Red Cross nurses and
seven United States marines res
cued from the Netherlands steam
ship Maasdam, torpedoed in the
North Atlantic last month, arrived
In London today.
The nurses are Frances Bacon,
Pennington, Mich; Laurine Smith,
Jacksonville, Mich; Mary Ann Sui
Ivan, Boston; Geraldine Shuttle
worth, Milton, Mass; Margaret
Malloy. Chicago, and Martha Refs,
Wooster, Ohio.
Nine other American nurses who
were aboard the Maasdam arrived
here July 4. Two of the contingent
still are unaccounted for.
The marines, who were accom-
panied by their commanding officer,
Maj. Walter I. Jordan. joined pre-
vious arrivals as firewatchers and
messengers at the United States
Embassy.
Hit During Dinner.
The nurses said all the pas
sengers were just finishing dinner
when the torpedo struck.
There was no confusion" Nurse
Bacon said, but amended her
statement this way:
We'll, I guess there was a little
confusion at that. The ladder was
very oily and slippery and I couldn't
keep my feet on 1t. Sailors made
me come back up, sit down and
take my shoes off. That delay was
sort of embarrassing with the ship
sinking under you"
One Of the nurses, Miss Shuttle
worth, had 6. chance to perform
some first aio. She bandaged the
liners third officer whose head was
badly cut when he was struck by
part of the collapsing bridge.
Injured Officer in Command.
Nurse Sullivan said the officer was
bleeding badly but thanks to Shut
tleworth he was perfectly capable
of taking command of our boat
and we pulled away without a
hitch"

or any part of which has been ex-
posed to infection. This provision
affects some fifteen countries, but
Argentina and Uruguay are the only
ones which are important exporters
of meats. Believing that this legis-
lation added nothing to the domestic
safeguards against infected meats
which had been erected by the De-
partment of Agriculture since 1890,
Secretary Hull negotiated a Sanitary
Convention with Argentina, which
was signed in 1885 and which would
have had the effect of permitting
meat imports from sections of that
country not affected by the disease.
Despite the fact that the Depart
ment of Agriculture, on the basis of
study made by its experts, has
approved the convention, however,
repeated efforts by the administra-
tion to secure Senate approval of the
treaty have been unsuccessful. The
well-known sentiments of producers
in the Western cattle States, who
are opposed to any competition from
the Argentine, have proved more
potent than Secretary Hulrs argu-
ments in behalf of the good neigh
Dor policy, and the treaty ratifying
the convention continues to gather
dust in a Foreign Relations Commit
tee pigeonhole.

Poor Fish

There are various degrees of wis
dom and preparedness exercised by
fishermen in their submarine cam
paigns. The more casual anglers
scorn the possible necessity of re-
placements and start out with one
hook, trusting to luck to find
few worms en- route and, by mys-
terious providence, often get away
with It, The systematic ones carry
tackle boxes full of expensive secret
weapons and devices to fool the
enemy, and by the same mysterious
providence often fail to get away
with it. 1t is under these circum-
stances that there is a crying need
for yet another accessory not found
In tackle boxes--a good anbi.
Mr.. Wilkisson, president of the
Fishery Council of New York, gen.
erously gives a free one which should
be quite popular, as it involves Adolf
Hitler. Torpedoes, depth charges
and mines, he says, have ruined fish
appetites and sent them scurrying
for cover. Or could it be that these
neutrals, poor fish, have even been
intimidated into signing up with the
axis? Are the romantic days of in
dividual combat between fish and
man gone forever, destroyed by the
Moloch of modern mass warfare?
Anyhow, 1t is something different to
tell the little woman upon returning
empty handed.

National Business Charters

In a final statement to the Tenn
porary National Economic Commit
tee, Senator O'Mahoney, it's chair
man, has recommended Federal
charters for corporations trans
acting business on national scale,
Elm order that these agencies may
have a definite and free place in
our economy and local business may
be differentiated and protected from
national business" The proposal, the
most important of the chairman'S
recommendations designed 70 re
establish and encourage free private
enterprise" in the United States calls
for the Federal incorporation or
licensing of interstate business cor
porations, as provided by the old
Borah-O O'Mahoney bill.
AS Senator OMahoney diagnoses
the country's economic ills, basic
trouble is the alleged concentration
of wealth and economic power in
the hands of a comparatively few
corporations, some of which, he
points out, have assets greater than
those of many States. Because OF
the Nationwide scope of the oper-
ations of these companies and their
ownership OF large part OF the
wealth and income of the country,
and because they are too large to
AA n@Yfr111nI hHy CtotnS o1H 1nrQ1
governments, he urges the enact
ment of national charter law, thus
making 1t possible for the Federal
Government to define the RESPONSE
bilitieS and duties of these corpora
tions. Such a law, he said, would
make corporate directors trustees
In fact, as we'll as in law, and, at the
same time, make them personally
liable for violations of the anti
trust laws"
That the growth of large corpora
lions has brought with it economic
and other problems will readily be
conceded. Reasonable exception may
be taken, however, to Senator OMah-
oney's statement that the stock
ownership of these corporations
s not substantially distributed
among the people of the country"
Stocks of many of the Nations big
corporations are widely spread in
their ownership throughout the
land and the assets of insurance
companies are held for millions of
individual policyholders. Apart from
dividends to stockholders, the big
companies distribute vast sums each
year to their salaried personnel and
wage earners. Corporate wealth, in
Its distribution, rests on broad base.
Created in 1888 at the suggestion
OF the President to investigate the
Nations economic ailments and sug-
gest a prescription for their cure,
the r. N. E. C. has closed its public
hearings and will soon make public
It's final recommendations. What

Argentine Beef

Renewal by the House Appropri-
ations Committee of a prohibition
against the purchase of Argentine
beef by the Navy may be expected
to aggravate an international sore
spot, the political Importance OF
which is out of all proportion to its
economic significance.
The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act,
passed in 1880, contained a provision
which has had the effect of imposing
an absolute embargo on imports OF
fresh or frozen meats from the
Argentine, and the refusal of Con-
gress to lift this prohibition has so
seriously impaired relations between
the United States and the Latin
American republic that Secretary
Hull has made determined but un-
successful efforts to bring about its
repeal or modification.
Under the tariff legislation, the
ban on competitive meat imports
takes the form of sanitary embargo
against any country in any part Of
which foot-and-mouth disease exists

Need for Action Now

While some new evidence is pre-
sented almost every day of the new,
emergency needs facing the District
as a result of the influx of thousands
of defense workers, it would be a
mistake to regard the Overton-
Hunter formula for measuring the
size of the Federal payment as de-
signed merely to meet proposed
emergency expenditures or as being
justified only by new and perhaps
temporary conditions.
New demands placed on the mu-
nicipal government as a result of
centuate, of course, the inadequacy
of revenue available under the pres
ent system of dividing National
Capital costs between the local
community and the National Gov
ernment.
But the principle of the Overton
formula was offered by Senator
Overton as a convenient, practical
method of measuring the extent of
an obligation which, though recog-
nized, is not being fulfilled by the
lump sum method of appropriating.
Proposed and approved by the Senate
long before the present emergency,
Senator Overton has renewed his
efforts In behalf of this formula at a
time when the necessity for substan-
tial increases in the Districts budget
Is receiving general recognition.
Approval of the Overton plan by
the Senate subcommittee yesterday
indicates early and favorable action
by the Senate itself, for Senator
Overton plans to push for immediate
consideration. Chairman Hunter of
the House subcommittee, in charge
of the proposal, plans hearings next
week. AS consideration of the Dis
trict appropriation bill is not ex-
pected to begin until next month,
passage of the OVerton bill in both
houses would facilitate the work of
the appropriations committees in
dealing, as soon they must, with
District budget framed and sent to
Congress before the defense emer-
gency needs became evident.

THIS AND THAT
BIZ Charles =. Tracepell.
I glanced up to the roof and thsrs sst

I glanced up to the roof and thsre sat
my little friend saying, Thank you
ITO me, that was everything and I
soon forgot my cold hands.
Now after many weeks of quarreling
there Is peace among my birds. Almost
any morning the blue jay can be seen
eating from one Of the higher branches,
the cardinal from lower one, and fiit-
ting about pecking here and there, can
be seen juncos, tufted titmice, chicka-
dees, eowny woodpeckers and one lone
song sparrow.
"It is hard to take choice, but I
think my favorite bird is the little
chickadee.
"I guess it is because he said Thank
you when was so cold that morning.
Sincerely, z. A. H."
Bird observation, as we pointed out
here recently, is an individual matter.
While there are standard patterns Of
action, there are variations also.
Our correspondent speaks Of cardinals
and jays eating suet.
cardinal eat suet in our yard.
And yet that does not mean that
each of us hasn't seen correctly.
Such varying observations simply prove
that birds are individualists, too, and
that PHILOSOPHERS of government which
would attempt to divest human beings
of individuality and separate personality
are barking up the wrong tree.
The animal world itself proves them
wrong.
Again, we have never seen a cardinal
stand off a blue jay.
To the contrary we have seen a hand
some male cardinal leave the feeding
station literally thousands of times in
the last five years when jays have flown
in with that raucous yell of theirs
Here, again, this does not mean that
our correspondent did not have an un-
usual cardinal.
He was either braver than most, or
maybe of such poor vision, that he could
not see the other bird.
Our guess is that he was simply .
UlIu WlllILlt IlAOuBLl OA44SASAS w
ordination, failed to fly at the approach
of another and larger bird.
This lack Of action nonplussed the jay.
We always have thought that if smaller
birds would stand their ground, larger
ones seldom would be able to run them
away from food.
Both birds and fish fight" in such
a manner. that is. they push toward
another, and the other fees at once.
In most cases, if the attacked creature
holds Its position, the attacker itself
swerves and goes away.
Thus we see that bluff is a funda-
mental animal characteristic.
The other day we watched with much
amusement an English sparrow out-blun
four starlings. Each startling in turn
tried to drive it away from the rim
of a feeding station. The sparrow re-
fused to fly away, and finally hoped
down bodily into the feeder with the
larger birds, which walked all over it
in their search for food. The sparrow
did not seem to mind being tumbled
around, but ate away greedily. This
was the first and only time We have
ever seen sparrow contest food with
starltngs

Wants Critic of Greece to Study
Her Territorial Claims.

To the Editor Of The Star:
My attention was attracted by letter
in The Star under date Of March IL
signed Joanne McGeary, in which the
writer states that Greece had no just
cause for claiming the coastal territory
In the Aegean Sea from Bulgaria. Per-
NIT me to ask if she is aware OF the
chronological status of the population
comprising not only the Aegean Coast
but the Thracian as well as the territory
of Asia Minor. If not, then it would be
well that she study history.
AS far as Greece being involved In the
present war, a war in which she has
less than no say as to direction or policy.
wish to remind the writer that Greece
has not started any imperialistic war
against any nation but has been pro-
vocatively attacked by great power.

"IDYLwooD, Va.

Dear Sir:
"I enjoy reading your column about
the birds and thought, perhaps you
might like to hear some Of my ex-
reriences.
II purchased small feeding station
and tied 1t securely to the trunk Of q
small maple tree that could be seen
from the dining room window.
Then filled 1t with wildbird and
sunfower seed. To the lower branches
of this tree and a neighboring tree,
tied small bits of suet
'Tt was not long before my first visitor
arrived He was q cardinal, arrayed
in his beautiful red plumage. He
alighted upon the feeding station and
as soon as he spied the wildbird seed
and sunhower seed he started to eat.
HE just ate and ate until I thought
there'd be nothing left for any other
bird. Soon blue jay appeared on the
scene, then another and another until
there were four jays But not one
solitary seed could they get. The cardi-
nal Just stood his ground and stared
at each blue Jay in turn until one by
one they few away. I could hardly be-
ueve it. without a sign of battle the
cardinal put four blue jays to flight
soon the little birds appeared, the
juncos, the titmice, the nuthatcnes,
chickadees, one lone song sparrow, and
a downy woodpecker, and being able
ei1y thau MANAGED
to get peck at the suet here and
there.
But it was not until the cardinal had
flown away that they really had a
chance. Even the cardinals mate, when
she appeared at the feeding station,
was chased away.
TT was fun each morning to watch
dove appeared, but only for moment;
then a yellow-bellied sapsucker, and
once a lone starting.
THE varying dispositions Of the birds
amused me. At first the cardinal did
not know what to make Of the suet. 1t
seemed hard to eat at first, but he soon
learned. With the blue jay, 1t was a
case OF temper right away. He stabbed
at the suet with his long bill and grew
madder and madder each minute. He
would yank at the suet and jab 1t but
never a taste would he get. Finally,
after several weeks, he, too, learned how
to eat it. Now he takes good peck at
it, manages to get a nice little tidbit,
then sits quietly eating and enjoying it.
1.-THE woodpecker was the most SEN
sible of all. He spied piece Of suet,
stayed right with it, and ate and ate
until it was time TO rest bit, then at
1t again.
"The other little birds fitted con-
stantly about, taking a peck here and
a peck there.
"I noticed the chickadees, nuthatches
and downy woodpeckers could eat suet
while suspended upside down but not
so the others.
"One cold morning when the ground
was covered with snow and the branches
coated with ice, was tying pieces OF
suet to the branches and my hands
were getting colder by the minute, when
I heard a little 'chickadee-dee-de and
