the country as a whole
You and your outfit are using
dictator methods" flared Johnson.
You're always trying to act in
dependently. Congress can't be in
dependent. 1t has to answer to
the people We're the servant of
the people and you're the servant
Of Congress. We may have some
thing to say about your dictatorial
policies when the budget estimate
to increase your personnel comes
before us"
Hardly had this hot exchange
been stricken from the record when
another broke out with another
Johnson doing the swinging.
This time it was Representative
Jed Johnson of Oklahoma who
jumped Henderson for "runnningn
jumped Henderson for running
small independent oil producers in
my State out Of business" He
pointed out that several hundred
"stripper" oil wells in Oklahoma al
ready have shut down and many
others soon will have to follow be-
cause Of inability to meet high pro-
duction costs under the crude oil
price ceilings fixed by Henderson's
OPA.
we need all the oil we can get
for the war" declared Johnson,
land yet these wells are being
forced to shut down. Do you know
what stripper well is?"
mo, 1 don't said Henderson. Il
don't profess to know everything.
But have oil experts who will
supply you with that information
Finally cooling down a bit, John
son got a promise from Henderson
that Okiahoma's small oil well own
ers would be given an opportunity
TO present their complaints.

Tinkham ousted. The court held
that only death Or defeat at the
polls could break Tinkhams lease.
Even after the government took
over the building, Tinkham stayed
on. First, it was Rexford Tugwell's
Rural Resettlement Administration,
but they couldn't resettle Tinkham.
Now the army occupies the build
ing, and SO does Tinkham.
His long fights for civil liberties,
for strict U. S. neutrality, for nom
participation in the League OF Ma
lions have kept him in the forefront
of Congress. But probably none OF
his battles was SO stormy as his
fight against prohibition and then
for repeal
During prohibition, when he was
starting off on one of his junkets,
he always announced soiemrlly to
the newsmen: Nov I'm going down
to the Department of Justice and
tell them to keep an eye ON my
cellar until 1 get back"

Civilian Pilots
New York Times)

New York TlmeS)
Civilian pilots are playing credtable part in
the Battle of the Atlantic. Amateur airmen who
formerly used their private photographed planes for
committing and vacation travel have in for high
praise as members of the Civil Air Patrol. Major
General Bradley, commanding the First Air Force of
the Eastern Defense Command, credits number of
sinkngs of U-boats by the bombers of the Army and
Navy to the sharp eyes and vgilant coverage of
their coastal patrol by these civilian filters and
their prompt tips by radio Some of the planes of
the patrol have arrived at the point of submarine
attack in time to send the U-boats, which did not
know whether net they armed, into crash
dives before launching their torpedoes. Amateur
filters have also been able to summon rescue ships
to pick up survivors from vessels which have been
sunk AS couriers they have flown several million
pound miles of cargo for the armed services Oper
equipped by CAP members themselves. More than
three thousand pilots belong to the New York Wing.
Meanwhile more than 100000 younger civilians
carrying the excellent record of the Civilian
Pilot Training program under the Civil Aeronautics
Authority. Most of these younger men are eligible
for military services, and all have agreed to volun
teer In otherwise encouraging picture of civil
flying the only present blot is the record of fifty
five suspensions and revocations of licenses for flag
rant violations of rules during February and March
Considering the large number of pilots qualified
the number is not a large one, but careless use of
the air is inexcusable in wartime. On the whole and
in the broad view the performance Of civil pilots
and woud-be pilots is admirable

BATHTUBs VS.. GOODWILL

1t hasn't leaked out yet, but the
U. S. Government has just held up
six bathtubs, ordered by the King
OF Egypt, in manner which
doesn't look SO good for future
friendly relations around Suez.
Ordinarily the question of six
bathtubs would be laughing mat
ter. However, it happens, that one
OF the most important countries
in the world to the Allied effort is
Egypt-ruled by King Farouk, who
is an important spiritual leader of
500,000000 Moslems in the vital
areas of the Near East and India
7 To win his favor, Hitler prob
! ably would nave sent King Farouk
hundred bathtubs. But not the
United States. The bathtubs were
ordered last September, but as Of
today they have not been shipped.
The bathtub incident, however,
came on top OF several other which
have made royal blood boil.
The first was the order of 20
trucks by King Farouk under a IL
cense from the British Middle East
Authorities on January &C. The
trucks were paid for, delivered to
the steamship company's docks in
New York Then suddenly, Col. F.
l. Kerr, chief of Export Control,
stepped in.
Twenty trucks more or less in the
United States probably would not
make half as much difference sto
the war as the goodwill of the
Egyptian Government. Admiral

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
but do not con,pep
SATURDAY. MAY %


Adverse planetary aspects rule
strongly today. 1t is not favorable
sway for air travel. Temporary dis
appointments of some sort in the
war effort are forecast.
HEART AND HOME: While there
is a promising sign for transition
in worldly affairs this may be a
day of perplexities. Illness or acct
dents to aged members of the fam
lily may alter plans that are deemed
important. At this time there may
be much sorrow for women who
watch the progress of the war. Even
victories are attended by severe sac
rifice and the seers warn again that
the price for the perpetuation of
liberty will not be cheap. Through
tribulation a new order of human
progress is gaining Roadway.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Labor dis
agreements may be most disturbing
to men in authority whether en-
ployers or Government officials.
Despite apparent heavy losses of
manpower though war service great
results in production are indicated.
The SeerS predict amazing success
in manufacturing and distributing
Travel will be general in the United
States as thousands seek rest from
intensive war work. Money will cir
culate freely. War restrictions will
be only slightly felt as the adapt
ability of the nation assures COM
! forts.
| NATIONAL ISSUES: AS Amer
leans accept their part i'll the war
with courage and cheerfulness there
may be a carelessness regarding Ger
tain formalities, lack of expression
of the true patriotism that inspires
civilians Of every class In the Sec
ond World War there has been little
flourish of trumpets and beating of
drums in city streets. For that rea-
son there will be agitation for some
of the pomp and ceremony attend
| ing army movements but the seers
declare that there will be due reason
by and by for great demonstrations
since victory is to be attained.
| INTERNATIONAL A F f Al r S !:
Mars eliminating at Tokyo gives
warning to the Japanese who will
have serious troubles because of the
dissatisfaction Of the civilian popu-
| lation. AS army officers and naval
| commanders lose face the military
party will exercise powers that re-
duce the people to misery in many
! ferns. China is to benefit at this
time if the influence of Jupiter cul-
minating at Marking is rightly in
terpreted. 1t is emphasized that
although this year will decide the
result of the war, the trend toward
victory for the Allied Nations is
more probable than an early defeat
of the Axis powers
Persons whose birthdate it is may
have many perplexities in the COM
ing year. They should guard against
deception and should avoid risks OF
every sort.
Children born on this day prob
ably will have many ups and downs
through life. They may be extremely
artistic and keenly intellectual and
yet may lack practical ideas.

Greenslade recently reported that
10000 trucks were piled up at an
eastern port. However, T. w. Flat
ley, of the Treasury's Procurement
Division, has just wired the repre-
sentative of his Royal Highness
that his 20 trucks will be requi-
sitioned.
The bathtub incident goes back
to two months before Pearl Harbor
when IL enamel tubs were ordered
for installation in the Abdin Pal
ace in Cairo. However, just as
the tubs were about to leave for
Egypt last January, it was discov-
cred that the company had made
a mistake regarding the specifica-
tons on six of the II tubs Mean
while the WPB had frozen all bath
tub supplies.
The Egyptian Legation asked for
special license to export six sub
stitute tubs, but Col Kerr, of Elk
port Control, officially replied:
This office feels that the export
of these bathtubs would not be in
line with the national policy"
Meanwhile the Kings friends say
that regardless of what U. S. ma
tional policy may be, he has given
one of his palaces to the British
for a hospital and that in another
palace he is equipping, his per-
sonal policy is to keep clean

P-Strange as it seems, there is
reported to be an organization Of
real estate dealers in the capial
city that does not sell property

Discussing the housing situation

property with leading colored
real estate dealer in the city, it
was revealed last week that this
group has an understanding
among themselves they will not
sell q piece Of property to Ne
gro if the majority Of the tenants
in the street are white.
Several tests. have been made of
the charge, with one coming up
last week. In a neigh borhood where
Negroes are strongly entrenched-
