HALLOWEEN

Time out of mind Clothesline or blind Are bound to disappear In manner very queer, And you've got to be keen When it's Halloween. That's the very night Merriment is at its height. It becomes real bore Going to the door In aswer to the doorbell ring, But young folks must have their fling Youngsters fat and lankish Are very very prankish. They come with masked faces, Do damage many places. Thye scare you with boo And work the old tick-tack-too. Time out of mind You are minus window blind. The youngsters are hell bent, And their one intent Is to make themselves heard and seen When it's Halloween.

WAR BONDS AND STAMPS

Secretary of the Treasury Nor
genthau is opposed to any plan that
would force the public to buy war
bonds or stamps, and he indicates
that there may be intensive can
vassing every week, and every
month to encourage the voluntary
purchase of government securities.
In the first World War a similar
policy was followed with the result
that everyone who could do so
bought Liberty bonds and stamps.
The ease with which these securi-
ties were liquidated and disposed
OF after the war left a record be-
hind that encourages Treasury
Morgenthau to stick to his "volun-
tary plan"

More Precious Than Diamonds In War Produe.

More PTedous Than Diamonds IN War Prodve.
iion >. Carboloy is an American trade
mark for cemented tungsten-carbide, an
alloy second only to diamonds in hardness,
more precious than diamonds as a vital
material in Americas war program. 1t is
used for the tips Of cutting tools, and for
wear-resistant dies. Carboloy is used in
small quantities; it is difficult to make
and difficult to use but it has never been
scarce in modern times. There is no scarcity
now:
Invented In csfmuny-Krvpp Protected by
U. 5. Pufents -. Cemented carbide was in
vented in Germany-it belonged to Krupp
ofGermany, and this made all the rest Of the
world Krupp's customer. In this country,
Krupp was protected by patent grants from
the United States.
General Electric Creates Independent Predue.
iion .. The General Electric Company two
years before this had begun research on
tungsten-carbde and foresaw its importance
in industrial production. For immediate use
in IT'S own plants and for easier availability to
Others, General Electric undertook the long
and arduous negotiations for the American
rights. Limited rights were obtained in I928,
with Krupp continuing to export the mate
rial to its United States customers-a busi-
ness which languished, however; as General
Electric painstakingly developed its own
Carboloy technique. This paved the way for
General Electric to make the United States
entirely independent of Germany for its
cemented tungsten-carbide supply as early
as 1896.

nesses were involved. KuPP originally ex-

YeaFs, .. Cemented tungsten-carbide could
easily have been source Of weakness here, as
it was in England, had it not been for Gen.
eraI Eleetric's policy Of continued expansion.
In 1899, the production Of the Carboloy
Company was less than 10000 lbs; in 1890,
it was $1,000 lbs; in I94I, it was 10000
and in December came Pearl Harbor. Now,
in I942, the Company's production is going
at rate that is As times that Of only four
years ago.
Britain Dependent vpsn Us %. By contrast,
British companies, which had been content
to continue as customers Of Krupp, found
themselves cut off from the vital material
when Poland was invaded. But the General
Electric Company was able to supply sub
stantial quantities to British industry im-
mediately and since then has continuously
+ filled British orders. Ii has, in like manner,
filed Canada's requirements since 1876. Il is
currently supplying Canada, Russia, and
other United Nations. All this in addition to
supplying the greatly expanded needs Of
( American industry.

Victory Is Late
But Welcome
To Al Benton

ST. LOUIS. May 27.-When Al
Benton pitches a good game il
isn't news. But when Big Al
fpitches good game and wins, il
is news.
Benton turned in four-hit
game under the lights here last
night and the Tigers defeated the
Browns. 81. TO square the series
at one-all. II was the second four
hitter Benton had hurled here this
season. He lost the first to Eden
Aulters early In the schedule.
Benfon's triumph last night
came in his first appearance in a
big league night game. His only
other experience with the noe
turnal brand was with Oklahoma
City in the Texas League.
ANOTHER HIT
Moreover. Benton got a hit and
scored a run. his third hit and his
second run of the season. He to-
tailed only three hits all of last
season. so that the big Oklahoman
appears 10 be off TO a batting
spree. His hit last night was a
two-bagger 10 make his nights
labors all the more impressive.
And he didn't have much trouble
reaching second--well. not much.
To Benton's fine performance on
the mound was added a home run
by Eric McNair. the shortstop's
first OF the year, and a tempes-
tuous argument between Tigers
and Umpire Joe Rue in which
Birdie Tebbetts was banished from
the game.
The argument came in the fifth
inning over a disputed run. a
marker that robbed Benton of a
shutout victory. 1t was scored by
AL Hollingsworth, the Browns
starting pitcher. after a catch by
Doc Cramer of Roy Cullenbine.
Making a spectacular throw from
deep center, Cramer's ball beat
