SalamanderS are tailed amphib-
really is a pity, because these crea-
lures are fascinating. There is such
q variety in size, form and colora-
ton that you are amazed at their
diversity, and soon become so in
trigued that you begin actually to
look for salamanders on your trips
through the woods, and we hope
there will be many.
There are, we have been told,
eight times as many species Of frogs
and toads as there are of sala-
manders. yet there are $50 species
of salamanders known in the United
States.
The members of the various
species differ in length and size.
Some are only few inches long;
others grow to a length Of two feet.
The giant member of the tribe, the
Great Hellbender, known to quite a
few, is an ugly, warlike appearing
creature but Is perfectly harmless,
as, indeed, are all salamanders.
Beside the large ones, there are
nevis, smaller but the most beauti-
fully colored of all salamanders.
None of them grow to be more than
3 to Az inches long. They have
Colored skins-some are red, others
olive green. They inhabit ponds and
streams, and are familiar sights to
country boys and girls. When very
r,1 oil oil
creatures live in the water. During
the in-between periods, they reside
on land.
Salamanders are usually found in
regions that border a small brook
pond or stream in the woods, or in
other moist places. In the summer,
if you will overturn a log or stone
in damp, woodsy spot, you may
find some of these shy creatures.
They try their level best to wriggle
rapidly away. They are quick and
alert, disappearing in flash, al
though they have such a clumsy
appearance.
To many. salamanders are classed
with lizards. Let us get the dis
tinction we'll established in our
thought so that we will not make
this error. A salamander has soft.
moist skin like that of a frog, and
must remain where it is damp and
shady. 1t has no claws on its toes.
A lizard has scales and claws like
most reptiles. And remember, liz
ards are SUM- worshipers. 1t is quite
true that lizards and salamanders
have forms that are similar.
The spotted Salamander, about six
inches in length. has many round
yellow spots scattered over his back
and sides. The red salamander, six
inches long, is bright red with gen.
erous decorations of black spots.
This member of the tribe is so
widely distributed that you will have
little difficulty in finding one or
more occupying some moist spot in
the woods
In the spring the salamanders will

Competitive Economy Held
Fifth Freedom in j. ).
By tie Associated Press.


HOT SPRINGS, Ark, Sept. %
The competitive economy of the
free enterprise system is "fifth
freedom for which Americans
should fight, c. G. Carr, advertising
manager of the Aluminium Co. of
America told the Southern Newspa-
per Publishers Association today.
we can win the war and lose our
American way of life," Mr.. Carr said
in an address prepared for delivery
at the opening session of the SNPAs
three-day convention.
We will win the war and make
even finer and better system which
rewards individual initiative if we
recognize now certain forces which
are at work and take steps to keep
the American people clear as to
what it is all about"
Mr.. Carr, criticizing group he
described as small but articulate,
said IT was telling the public that
American industry's mammoth war
production record was due to regu-
lation and as suggesting that this
regulation might be applied with
equal benefit to the postwar econ
omy.
The Alcoa official said there was
no dispute over the need for cen-
tralized authority in the war ef-
fort, but free enterprise, would be
needed after the war. >

Frey, AFL Leader,
Asks End Of Raidinq
By Rival Unions

Period, He Asserts
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
TORONTO. Sept 2S.-John P.
Frey, president of the AFL Metal
Trades Department, appealed today
for an end to what he called the
"fratricidal policy" OF membership
raiding by rival unions He de-
clared the practice was neither
good trade unionism nor good Amer
icanism'
Mr.. Frey's views on this and other
aspects of the schism in organized
labor were expressed in his annual
report submitted to the Metal Trades
Department at the opening of its
annual convention today. The de-
partment represents a large segment
of unions in the American Fedora
tion of Labor, which opens a two
week meeting in Toronto next
Monday
Policy Not Carried Out.
After Pearl Harbor, Mr.. Frey
said, public statements that raid
ing would be abandoned were made
by both President William Green,
AFL, and President Philip Murray,
CIO. 1t was hoped that these
statements of policy would bring
raiding to an end, at least during
the period of war, but unfortunately.
local and national representatives
were either unwilling or unable to
carry this policy into effect.
"Raiding continues to be an ever
present problem. Active efforts are
made to secure a CIO foothold in
plants under union shop agreements
with Metal Trades Councils. and
the International unions whose
members are employed. This un-
fortunate and unjustified condition
compels our local unions, our Metal
Trades Councils and the affiliated
international unions to be constant
ly on their guard and to devote time
and energy to prevent successful
raiding
No Place For Labor Wars.
. There is no place for labor wars
in this most critical period of our
history as Nation. - 1t is a con-
dition which weakens the influence
Of labor nationally, and makes it
more difficult to deal satisfactorily
with management, or to adequately
protect labor's interests in the halls
of Congress"
Mr.. Frey touched briefly on
problem triangle involving the Fed
eral Government, the AFL and the
CIO. He said:
The Federal agencies which, in
the beginning, seemingly gave their
cordial support to the building up of
the CIO, while maintaining in prac-
tice an attitude OF indifference to-
ward the AFL, still continue to
supply a problem which has been
tied up with the activities of the
CIO from the beginning"
He did not amplify that observa-
ton.

imported food, actual hunger.

ISTANBUL, Turkey. Sept. 28.-
American-made B-24 bombers, fly
Ing from undiSclosed bases with
bomb loads as great as four tons,
have been spreading the message
of the United Nations growing
might among the Axis satellites in
the Balkans for the last two weeks,
bringing blackout and bewilderment
to one capital after another, it has
just been disclosed.
The targets in Hungary, Ru-
mania, Bulgaria and the puppet
state of Croatia could be reached
either from Russia or the Near
East. but where the bases are is
not being given.
Nor are Allied authorities reveal
ing the nationalities of the bomb
ers crews.
Importance of Target.
But it was indicated it probably
would not be wrong to assume that
American flyers are becoming ac-
quainted with the Balkans along
with Russian and British pilots.
American airmen raided Rumanian
Oil fields in June, some of them
being forced down. in Turkey on
the way back to their secret bases.
Reliable reports reachring here
of Axis movements of troops and
war materials across the Balkans
recently toward Africa and Russia
bring into sharp focus the i'm
portance of the Balkan targets.
In early August train after train
carried German and Italian troops
through Yugoslavia. More German
troops in African uniforms were re-
ported to have moved southwark
late in the month and during the
last half of August the Axis sent
$4,000 trucks, 400 pieces of heavy
artillery and 80 trainloads of other
war materials southwark through
Belgrade.
Numbers Of Air Raids.
1t is no secret that there were
more air raids in the Balkans re-
Gently than Russian and British
communicates accounted for. The
Russians raided Budapest Septem-
Der and the same night unidenti-
fed planes attacked Zagreb, capital
of Croatia.
(Reuters said German frontier
reports reaching London told of
recent raids attributed to Russian
long range bombers on Bratislava
and the Slovak towns of Zilina.

On September IA the Ploesti oil
fields of Rumania were bombed and
