Time to get up, start each chore.

Curry out their tail and name,
Feed 'em well, there's work to do
In the field, I'm tellin' you!"

Did | heed what Daddy said?
Up | got right out of bed.
All was ready, breakfast through
Long before town whistles blew.

In far corner-grass quite tall
Stood old Charlie, Maud and Belle
Closely huddled with old Nell,
Couldn't hear my call, "Ho, Ho!"
Yes, indeed, they all did know
That l wanted them just now
To go in the field and plow.

And my feet were cold, Oh gee!

Slower thing l do avow.

No hurry, couldn't make her run.

Rub my youthful sleepy eyes,
Jump right to the spot with JOY,
Warm my aching toes, oh boy!
Then when Sunday came around
Cross the fields in joyful bound
Long the dusty road away,
Guess l wore my shoes that day.

maintaining both.
II Is I'm recognition Of this urgent
need that the Commissioners are
planning TO use $500 900 of the Dis
trict's original Lanham Act alloca-
ton TO improve seven major sites as
wartime recreationaI centers. Lack
of funds in the past has prevented
installation OF facilities required TO
place these sites in shape for public
use. In addition. it Is planned to
allot some half million dollars OF the
new local Lanhsm Act appropriation
for additional recreational projects.
Such use OF emergency funds is
thoroughly justified by the recrea-
tional crisis which confronts this

Recreation Problem

Action of the Senate Appropria-
tions Committee in eliminating from
the independent offices supply bill a
100000 item for purchase of addi-
tional park and playground areas in
the District of Columbia should serve
to spur ALLEGATION of emergency
funds for the immediate develop
ment of potential recreational sites
already owned by the District. The
fund which the committee cut from
the House approved legislation was
part OF 100000 appropriation
sought by the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission under its
program of making regular acQuiSi-
tions of land for park purposes in the
Metropolitan Area. The committee
apparently was actuated by motives
of economy in curtailing this pro-
gram in time of war. 1t agreed to
leave $500 900 in the bill for purchase
OF park areas outside the District
While the desire of the Senate
committee TO restrict non-defense
spending is understandable, the fact
should not be overlooked that the
constant encroachment of Federal
buildings on parks and Fairgrounds
OF Washington has created a serious
shortage of recreational facilities for
war workers. This shortage is going
to make itself felt in acute form with
the advent OF summer weather, when
outdoor exercise will be sought by

industrial Accidents

The accident prevention program
recently announced by the National
Safety Council merits the full sup
port of business. industry and indus
trial workers as an essential part of
the war effort. The objective Of the
campaign. to be directed by the
newly established War Production
Fund to Conserve Man Power. is to
mobilize the country's volunteer
resources to curb the rising accident
toll. The plans call for an extension
OF tested accident-prevention tech
niques, the organization OF additional
safety groups. particularly in smaller
cities now lacking them, and a safety
education drive in the homes, farms
and schools of America.
The increase in accidents during
the past year provides a reason for
justifiable alarm. In 1941, they
claimed the lives OF more than 1OO,-
900 persons. disabled $4,000 others,
injured 3.750.000 workers, and cost
American industry 100000 man
days of labor, a loss 10 per cent
greater than in 1910. The accident
toll, in 1912. is continuing to rise, and
there is every indication that the
losses, in deaths, injuries, and in man
days Of labor, will be even larger
than last year.
In view Of the urgent need for
skilled man power. there is clearly
a need for an intensification of acci-
dent prevention work over a wider
front. The country can i'll afford the
setbacks to war production caused
by industrial and other accidents.
The fact that accidents have declined
50 per cent or more in communi-
ties that have adopted sound safety
practices indicates that the rising
toll can be checked, If not substan-
TALLY reduced. through proper pre-
ventive measures.
A 20 per cent reduction over
the l94l accident figures would mean
10000 fewer deaths and accidents,
750, 900 fewer injuries. the saving OF
$3.50 000o, 900. and $4,000 900 man days
of production. Such savings are
large enough, both in terms of
human welfare and in national re-
sources, to warrant a maximum ef-
fort to reduce the accident rate
through a Nation-wide safety cam
paign.

To the Editor Of The Star.
I am pleased to be able to give you
this brief report regarding the 1942

Quoted by The Evening Star and the
boys. department Of the Young Mems
Christian Association. A larger number
of boys participated in this campaign
than in any Of our previous efforts.
Several hundred different boys attended
and well over one hundred boys passed
the tests. I am glad to say that more
than IS per cent OF the boys who par
ticipated in our campaign were given
some award.
A number of volunteers participated
in the campaign as instructors and as
sistant leaders and we are very fortunate
in having the cooperation OF the radio
stations and newspapers in our effort.
I want to take this opportunity to ex-
press to you our sincere thanks for your
splendid cooperation in making this
campaign a success. A greater number
OF boys will "feel at home in the water"
and we know that more fellows will en-
joy the recreation of swimming this year
because of your cooperation in making
the campaign possible for them.

Spunish War Anniversary

Forty four years ago today the
gan. 1t was on Monday, April Is,
1898, that President william McKin-
ley notified Congress of the refusal
of Spain to grant independence to
Cuba. The issue had been set forth
in an ultimatum sent to Madrid Ave
days earlier, Feeling throughout the
United States ran high. The de-
struction of the battleship Maine in
Havana Harbor. February Is, had
made forceful action necessary.
Even citizens opposed to the ex-
panSion OF American influence in the
world gradually had come to agree
that Spanish disagreement of Cuba
must cease. The geographical posi-
ton of that beautiful but turbulent
island was such that disorder there
constituted a threat to the United
States. Other more or less ideal rea-
sons existed. but the principal cause
of hostilities was the unwillingneSs
of the Spanish government to permit
the Cuban people the right OF self
determination. Congress voted reso-
lutions declaring state of war ret
roactive to and including April 81.
A blockade of the ports OF Cuba had
been instituted on April 23.
But the first distinctively dramatic
event of the conflict occurred not in
the Gulf of Mexico or the Caribbean
Sea but In Manila Bay In the Philip
pine Islands, where, on May !, Com

SoIes of Wor Bonds

In view OF the Government need
for more revenue to help meet the
costs Of our expanding military and
naval effort, and the vital impor-
tance of diverting a greater proper
ton OF consumer income into savings
as a means of preventing a destruc-
tive price imitation, the recent decline
In sales Of War bonds Is not only
disappointing, but the cause for JUS
tiflable concern. Though the public
invested more than 81 900 900 900 in
these securities In January, the VOL
ume Of sales has steadily declined
since then. In March, purchases
dropped to s5s5 ,oOo, 900, and the sales
during the nrst twenty days of this
month indicate that the April total
will be even smaller.
The Treasury has set as its goal
the sale OF $1,000. 900 900 worth of
War bonds a month. This will re-
quire the investment In these securi-
ties of approximately 10 per cent of
the national income. At the present
time purchases are running far below
the amount desired by the Treasury.
Through the introduction of volun-
tary payroll deduction plans, en-
ployers can contribute much to in
crease sales Of War bonds. Many
already have put these plans into
operation, and it is to be hoped that
thousands of others throughout the
country, will follow their example,
thus siphoning OF into savings q
larger portion OF the expanding ma
tional income.
II the Treasury fails to raise the
money required through voluntary
purchases of War bonds by individual
citizens, higher taxes and compulsory
savings are inevitable. BY buying
more War bonds the American people
will therefore not only be making an
excellent investment, but they will
also reduce their future tax bills.
