Kimmel, Short
 Held DereliCt
 At Pearl HarbOr

On the shoulders Of Admiral Illus band E. Kimmel, COmmander-in. chief of the U. s. and Pacific fleets and Major General Walter C. Short Commander of the Hawaiian depart. ment of the U. s. Army. this week was placed the responsibility for the tragedy Of Pearl Harbor.
 Responsibility was placed by the special investigating commission ap- pointed by President Roosevelt and which was headed by Associate Justice Owen J. Roberts of the U. s. Supreme Court. In a 51page doe ument submitted to the President and released to the public last Sat urday night, the commission charged Kimmel and Short with "derelietion of duty"
 Kimmel and Short had both pre- Yiously been relieved of their com- mands and are now ill San Fran cisco. Whether further action would be taken against the high-ranking officers has not yet been revealed. The President said further action, ii any, is up to Navy Secretary Frank Knox and War Secretary Henry L. Stimson. Kimmel. 68, was one of the youngest fleet commanders in the Navy's history and was known in the Navy as one of the coolest men afloat. Short was a lieutenant in the first World War and shortly after the Armistice was made a colonel. He formerly commanded the First Division.
 The commission, In the report, de- elaFed that these two commanders, previous to the attack, were derelict as both had failed to consult and confer with one another about warn ings that appropriate measures of defense were required by the immin- ence of hostilities."
 The report further said that the attitude Of each commander showed that he had not inquired to inform himself and also he had showed lack of interest in measures to be under ldhE4 Dy luG OlueE u carry OuI le5- possibility assigned to each other under provisions of plans then in effect and to have been demonstrat- ed'' ..s
 The report said that. Ion the part of each there was a lack. of appre- citation of responsibilities vested in them and inherent in their posi- tions.
 The special commission noted in the report that on November 27. ten days before the Japanese surprise attack, the Chief of the Military In telligence advised the Army officials in Hawaii that peace negotiations with Japan had practically ceased and hostilities might ensue and sub yersiYe activity might be expected.
 On the same day, November 27, Chief of Naval operations Admiral Harold Stark, messaged to Admiral Kimmel that Japan was expected to make an aggressive move within a few days

AS WEATHER PROPHET
 GR0UNDH0G IS A BUM:
 BUT HE'LL TRY MONDAY

Wrangell has been enjoying balmy spring days. but hopes it has a little rain or some thing next Monday. That's the day the grounding does his stuff. If he comes out of his hole and sees his shadow, the old gag is that he will retire to his burrow for an- other six weeks and winter will continue for that period.
 Last year the sun shone brightly on Grounding Day. The well known marmot went back in his hole for an- other six weeks sleep, but it got so hot that he had to cut it short because the sun kept right on shining where the Stikine meets the sea, on and on into the summer.

. McKENNEY ON BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY America's Card Authority

Today,s hand was No. of the series used in the intercollege bridge tournament. The World Bridge Olympic Committee, which prepared the hands, was somewhat hesitant to use this one, as it obviously of fers strong temptation to play six no trump, which can be defeated. But it was considered that East should not bid six no trump over six spades, because he should antici- pate that heart ruffs might prove necessary, either to set up the suit or to help the spade suit with trump coup.
 Many pairs did in fact bid six no trump, but more than half of them made 1t by South,s choice of the spade queen for his opening lead.
 At six spades, the declarer wins the first trick in dummy, cashes the king of spades and leads the five. If South plays the nine, West should play the ten. This duck will assure the contract whatever the spade split. If South plays the queen or jack on the five of spades, West wins and discovers the tenace against him. The only chance now is a pickup. Vests trumps must be reduced to South's length by heart ruffs, the side tricks must be cashed, and the 11th trick must be won in dummy so that any lead through

Take a Half Day Holiday Every Week, Girls,
 And It Will Give You New Lease On Life

Susie wanted to do, there was al- ways some one to go along with her.
 It occurred to Mrs Jones that if she ever did find herself with free afternoon she usually put tered it away, because all her friends would be busy on that particular day.
 MRS. JONES TAKES
 A TIP FROM SUSIE
 Agnes would be getting ready for guests. Mary would have First Aid class. Jean would have an appointment at the beauty salon. And Janice would be stuck with three small fry to look after.
 So the afternoon would be wasted. When Mrs. Jones first realized that Susies sacred Thurs days were never wasted, she saw that 1t was because all of Susie's friends had the same day off.
 With that Mrs. Jones hit on her Wednesday, off flor housewives plan. She presented it to her friends, who thought 1t was smell idea. It was simple enough for the wom- en with maids. But the ones with out worked 1t out all right by

 Here are the basic rules for cor eect hgewing:
 FORGET ABOUT
 ZONE FOR THE POT"
 1. Measure carefully amount of tea and boiling water put into the pot. One level teaspoon of tea and one cup of boiling water should be used for each cup of tea. Don't guess the amounts, as this IS the chief cause of waste.
 2. It's customary with many tea drinkers to put in an extra teaspoon of tea for the pot. As special war time measure. this can be eliminated without seriously impairing the brew. Each teaspoon of tea thus saved means another cup another day.
 3. Always make sure that the water is actually boiling-not just steaming, but bubbling. w t e r not brought to the boiling point 6 one of the principal causes of waste. It must be boiling when poured on the tea leaves in order

ENRICHED WHITE BREAD IS
 PREFERABLE

ENRICHED WHITE BREAD IS
 PREFERABLE
 Being, as your Aunt Samantha might say, a doctor of the old school-that is, regular medicine, which some followers of newer schools" have dubbed "allopathy," although no such medical school exists or ever has existed-I don't go for every new departure that comes along, until I have had an opportunity to size 1t up and decide in my own peculiar way whether to Recommend 1t to the public or to pan 1t in this column.
 Sometimes this system proves sound enough-for example when l urged here the superiority of dia- thermy extirpation of tonsils over the old Spanish custom, injection treatment of hemorrhoids over the crude champ and cautery operation involving disqualification, and am- bulant treatment of hernia over the radical operation. had to take it on the chin from many big shot In surgery, for recognizing the prac- tical value of these newfangled methods and recommending them to the laity while hte Pooh-Bah was telling the public that such methods were unsatisfactory, "dangerous'' etc. But I can take it when l know I'm right. History has brought that satisfaction. All three methods are now so firmly established in prac- tice that 1t is no longer necessary to defend them-the public is too well informed about them.
 Sometimes the system fails. Some months ago presented the facts on which I based 8 protest against enriched bread"
 Later learned that the Nation al Research Council, is responsible for enriched flour and enriched bread, and the procedure is endors- ed by the Coordinator of Health, Welfare and Related Defense Activ~ ities as part of the program for improving nutrition in the interest of National Defense The production and sale of enriched flour and en- riched bread by the millers and bak- CTS of the country is also approved by the Federal Food and Drug Ad- ministration. So you see Uncle Sam gives enriched bread the nod, and If it's god enough for Uncle it's god enough for me. Especially now that l know the rapacious Pooh Bah can't move in on 1t with his yes-yes-indeed-men yclept the Coun- cil on Foods and Drugs or some such pretentious name.
 Remember the designation "ens riched" flour and enriched" bread --do not confuse it with any other designation. It means just good plain white flour or white bread to which is added, without any appre- ciable change in appearance, tex ture. taste or cost, 8 fair amount of the nutritional clements in which refined white flour and ordinary white bread are def1cient-namely, vitamin B1 (thiamin), niacin (for- merly called nicotinic acid-pre- vents pellagra) and iron.
 For better nutrition and better health I urge every one who buys flour or bread to prefer enriched flour or enriched bread wherever 1t is available.
