his usefulness as a leader, that
he has fallen from his high es-

The congressman reviewed the
rift between Lewis and CIO

the representative said was
"revered as a saint" by the steel
workers in his district Muir

he also held a salaried job as

mercy of Lewis policy board"
The two unions, he said, had
buried the hatchet," and were
convinced their future depended
upon victory in the war.
This was is a crusade to

said.

Proves Best Present

This is one of your birthday
presents"
That was one sentence of a
five-minute telephone CONVEX
Sation that Mrs. Malcolm p.
Moore, of sc Grove Park ave
nue., had yesterday at $50 ..
m. with her husband, a first
lieutenant assigned to a Pacific
island post. Lieut.. Moore is a
former Mount Clemens neWspa-
perman.
It was her birthday, Mrs.
Moore admitted today, and the
telephone call was the incest
birthday present that she could
have received, she further adj
mitted.
Prior to taking the call, Mrs.
Moore was warned by the tele-
phone operator that there we're
eight different things she
couldn't discuss over the tele~
phone. One, of all things, was
the weather here and there.
That's a military secret at both
ends.
So the conversation was what
the society editor calls de
lightfully personal but Mrs.
Moore, at least enjoyed it a lot.
There was no ban, apparent
ly, on her husband saying that
he did, too.

The body Of Reinhard (The

in solemn ceremony" from

yesterday morning, to Prague
citadel, where it lay in state, the
German official news agency
said. A state funeral, expected
to exceed in magnificence any
ever provided for a Nazi, will be
held in Berlin.
The Trans-OCean agency re-

patriots shot Heydrich on May
81, making a total of 267 inno-
cent persons who have been shot
in reprisal. Yet, there was no
indication that the Gestapo had
executed the guilty ones. Czech
circles in London said they had
thousands Of hostages in con
Centration camps to shoot if
their detective work continued
unfruitful.

Control of Ants
in Lawns Explained
BY william Murphy, Co. Agr. Agent

BY william Murphy, Co. Ayr. Agent
Judgign from the number of in
quirieS, ants must be more pre-
valent this year than usual. They
can be controlled by the prcSis-
tent use of brown sugar and
paris green, mixed at the rate of
one ounce Of pariS-grcCn to one
pound of the brown sugar. Gran
ulated sugar is useless in this
connection because it has no odOr
and is not attractive to ants. Stir
the pariS-greCn and brown Sug-
a together very carefully and
then sprinkle lightly where the
aunts are working. The ants
will pick up particle of this
poisoned sugar and carry it
down into their galleries where
it will be fed to the young, and
in a month or so the ants will
disappear.
In case large hills are found,
then half a teacupful Of the mix
tUre should be placed in a cavity
opened in the hill, after which
the dirt should be replaced and
the hill should be allowed to re-
main undisturbed for several
weeks. It will be necessary in
most cases to rcpc;' this treat
ment from time to time during
the entire summer. At least,
after each rain or heavy Sprinkl-
ing the treatment should be re-
peated. 1t is, Of course, necessary
that precautions be taken TO
avoid accidents, since dogs and
children might get some of the
poisoned sugar if it were care
lcssly applied. All lumbs should
be discarded and the poison
should be Sifted on very lightly
wherever the ans are at work.
The reserve stock should be
kept in a tightly-closed contain
er. well-labcled, and preferably
hidden away where it is inaCccs-
sible TO irresponsible individuals.
or course, a larger amount can
be prepared in the same proper
tons, using one part Of paris
green TO sixteen of brown sugar.
Keep this poisoned sugar bait
in a two-quart Mason fruit jar
with the cover screwed down
and label pasted on the jar.

Civilian Pilots
Ask for More
Exciting Action

BALLINGER, Texas, June 5
(H) - Hundreds of civilian
pilots helping train Uncle Sam S
air fighters are straining at the
leash for more exciting action,
but the army wants them right
where they are.
The civilian instruction pro-
gram is a vital element in the
army's scheme for a devastat-
ing air force.
The instructors are men who
nurSed aviation through its
cracker-box infancy. Too old
for combat service, they are
taking clerks, bookkeepers, sons
of wealth, boys from the farm
and starting them on the ca
reer of being fighting pilots.
The day after Pearl Harbor,
nine Of the instructors in the
school here strobe into the Of
flee of Capt. Ames Upton, 81
year-old commanding officer.

He'll the captain answered,

would, but our place is here
Back to the posts went the
pilots, men like Richard Ross
of Grand Rapids, Mich; c. &.
Stratton of Lubbock, Texas, and
Kenneth Hoffman, of San An
tonic.
Ross in the old days towed
signs and was a stunt pilot and
professional parachute jumper.
Ross, 81 years old, has made
1928 leaps.
Hap Sratton has been fly
ing for II years, ever since the
day he Soloed after 2 hours and
40 minutes Of instruction.

alive. We wore patches on our

of $50 monthly minimum pay
for the armed forces appeared
likely today, with the probable
ity that soldiers, sailors and

The pay increase question lay
in the lap of a FESTIVE senate,

Then Mrs. Charbcneau, re-

Pay Increase Question
Thrown Into Lap Of Senate
Senators Smart Under Charges
They are Nigsordy on Increase

With Sen. LaFollette( Prog
Wis., pressing for a showdown
vote on Monday, influential
Senators who had sought more
time for compromise efforts adj
mitted privately they had little
doubt that the higher figure
would be adopted.
The House arranged mean
while to take up on Monday a
family allowance bill passed by
the senate yesterday under
which wives Of military men re-
ceiving S78 a month or less
would be paid $50 monthly for
their support, the first child $12
and the other children $40 each.
The Senate-approVed measure
would require the enlisted man
TO contribute $50 of this amount,
the government paying the rest.
In addition, he could elect to
contribute So more, to which
the government would add SIS
for a dependent parent, S25 for
two parents and SIS for each adj
ditiOnal brother, sister or grand
child. If the soldier had no
wife or children, his contribu-
ton TO the latter class of de-
pendentS would be S22.
HOUSE VERSION
A house version Of this meas
ure would provide only $40 for
the wife, Of which the enlisted
man would contribute $40, with
the government providing $40
for each child.
Another provision of the SEN
ate bill would authorize the
seleCtive service, under the
presidents direction, to fix the
order in which regiStrants would
be called for active service.
Senator Taft (R-Ohio) said
this section ought to make it
fairly certain that men Of 80 or
over who had been married be-
fore the draft would be the last
to be called.
He said Brig. Gen. Lewis B.
Hershey, seleCtive service direc-
tor, had indicated that men
would be classified and called
in the following order.
CALL ORDER LISTED
l. Registrars unmarried or
married since the draft law was
enacted.
,. Men with dependent par
cnts who would be taken care
Of by Federal allowances.
3. Married men with no chill
dren.
4. Married men under 30 with
children.
5. Married men over 80 with
children.
The controversy over mini
mum pay reached a new pitch
in the Senate yesterday with
charges by LaFollette that at
tempts were being made to
"chiscI' enlisted men out of the

approved by delaying efforts to
compromise.
Senator Johnson D-Colo), a
senate conferee, holly denied
this but LaFollette told report
ers he was not disposed to wait
any longer and would demand
a vote Monday.

he declared. why should we
be niggardly with the soldiers?"

ming for the first rehearsal of the
Key West Community Band.
Following the rehearsal it was
decided to conduct another on

realize the importance of showing
their patriotism and cooperation
in this worthwhile movement.

Seven seats are vacant.
DR.. Gallup's latest published es-
innate is 245 to 265 Democrats.
Democratic leaders in the House
estimate 240. A number of in
formed practical Democrats out
side of Congress say the number
of Democrats will be as low as
225. -."lt
In reaching conclusion on this
difficult estimate, two factors
must be considered. First, is the
strength of the anti-Administra-
ton drift and as the size of the
Republican membership rises, ad-
ditional seats are harder to get
because they are the ones that are
held by larger majorities. New
Republican gains will consist of a
seat here and there among a num-
Der of states, according to a poll
teal observer.
Some Republicans predict a
landslide, but the trend does not
indicate such a significant drift
from the Democratic party es-
pecially at this time when the Adj
ministration needs the whole
hearted support of the American
people.
