NEWS FROM DOGDOM
Notes on a Variety of Subjects of Interest
In Washington and Vicinity
By r. r. Taynfon.

sidered one of the best of the recent
Mazelaine youngsters. His sire is
Oh. Utz Won Dom and his grandsire
is Oh. Dorian, which makes him a
combination of the best boxer
breeding.
Out in Ohio there Is a collie that
is said to help with the kennel
chores. Promptly at o'clock this
hound makes the rounds Of the
kennel runs and collects the dog
feed pans, which he brings up to
the house for filling. His morning
duty is to turn on the spigots which
allow water to run into fixed water
pans in the runs. After few min
utes he turns them of without
being reminded.
We don't vouch for the truth Of
these tales, but they were told in
good faith, and If any dog can do
them, collie can.
Dogs for Defense, Inc, is actively
looking for pure-bred dogs OF either
sex, between the ages of l and 5
years, to train for sentry duty in the
Army. A good list of dog trainers
is now available. In this area Mr..
and Mrs. Harvey Brown have volun-
teered to train two dogs for this
service and are awaiting their pupils
from New York.
Pointers lead the list of registrants
in the Field Dog Stud Book for
May. English settlers, as usual, are
a close second. There were 458 Of
the former and 429 of the latter
during the month and
enough of other breeds to make a
total of 1,100 for the month.
There is apparently growing in
terest in owning pure bred dogs.
Most breeders report a shortage Of
pups and an excellent demand.
Those who have owned pure-bred
dogs before are now asking for
show specimens. and those previ-
ously content with owning "just a
dog" now want pure-breds. With
the increase in income and the
decrease in available commodities, it
seems as if this field will benefit.
And so will the new dog owners, for
there are few things which give as
much profit for as little expenditure
as a good dog. Devotion, fidelity,
amusement, companionship and an
urge to regular living and exercise.
all come wrapped in the little
bundle called the new puppy.

News of Activities Here and Nearby
By Edmond Hendeyey.

Last Sunday was marked by the
most recent fan trip Of the Electric
Railroaders' Association. In line
with current restrictions on trans
portation. this trip was a hike. A
select group of the members walked
the ties of the Georgetown branch
of the B. g. o. Railroad from Silver
Spring to Dalecarlia. returning to
town via the Cabin John carline.
The trip started from the home
of the president, Paul Gable, In
Silver Spring. Early arrivals were
treated to an exhibition OF the
operation of Mr.. Gables combined
railroad and interurban lines. These
unusual standard-guage lines are
called "The Shadrach, Meshach &
Abednego Railroad" and the Silver
Spring Traction Co." respectively
They are controlled by operation
of an old streetcar controller, a
favorite arrangement with those
trolley fans fortunate enough to
possess the necessary equipment
The next meeting of the ERA will
be held at Mr.. Gables house, where
these may be seen running.
Those on the trip enjoyed 1t very
much. Stops were made at various
points of particular interest. The
site of the old Chevy Chase Lake
powerhouse and carbarn was looked
over carefully and the old carlines
were followed by the rails still in
place in the ground. The spot at
which the ,carline once crossed the
B. & o. right of way is still visible
If searched for carefully.
Evidence of construction Of a new
industrial spur at one point on the
B. & o. was greeted with delight
as proof that this line is not only
not dead but is again growing.
This Georgetown branch is one of
the lines included in a proposed
plan to provide rail commuter serv-
ice to downtown Washington.
Members of this club are certain
ly cooperating to save gasoline
Out Of 18 members present at the
May meeting only one went by
automobile. And this in spite of
the fact that the meeting was held
at the home of member living
beyond Glen Echo, requiring long
car rides for most of the others.
The fan trip last Sunday involved
no automobiles at all.

WASHINGTON, July LIP
- Director Elmer Davis pledg-
ed the new office of War Infor-
nation today to "give the peo-
pie clear, complete and accur-
ate picture" of the war, and to
prevent conflicting statements
which confuse the public mind"
Admitting that he probably
would not seek to enforce his
authority over the War and
Navy Departments, Davis new
ertehless told a press conference
yesterday that his office would
not permit the armed services
to withhold bad news "just be-
cause it is bad news"
Thus far, he said, he had
found no disposition within the
services to follow that policy.
In allowing the Army and
Navy Freer Rein, he explained.
he was operating on the theory
that no civilian was qualified to
determine what information
would or would not endanger
national security.
Davis directed heads of all
government departments and
agencies to maintain an OPEN
door policy in their relations
with the press and radio. The
