 FISH'S LATEST
 The federal grand jury probe of pro-Axis propaganda, in which Representative Ham" Fish and his secretary, George Hill, figured so prominently, wrote finis to Fish's isolationist franking activi- ties.
 However, the New Yorker Is still finding ways and means to use the taxpayers money for his po- litical ends. He now has gone in for another form of congressional boodle-nepotism.
 Latest addition to Fish's office staff is daughter, Elizabeth S. Fish, farniliarly known in the Capitals social whirl as "Zevah." Miss Fish made her debut several years back and is active in the younger set. To what extent this background fits her for secretarial work is open to argument, but thanks to her father she is tap ping taxpayers for $2,00O a year.
 Others on Capitol Hill who are keeping Fish company in nepot- ism are:
 Representative Clyde Williams of MisSouri-His wife, Lola M, is on the payroll for $500 year.
 Representative Fred L. Crawford of Michigan-His wife, Elizabeth A., gets $1,440.
 Representative Malcolm c. Tar . yer of Georgia-His son, Malcolm c. Jr.. draws $3.2OO year as his fathers secretary.
 Representative Philip A. Ben nett of Missouri-His son, Marion T., is on the congressional payroll for $500.
 Representative H. P. FuImer of South Carolina-His wife, Villa E., receives $3,50O as his secretary.
 Representative A. l.. Allen of Louisiara--His wife, Lottie May, gets $500 a year.

NOTE-When J. Edgar Hoover seized eight Nazi saboteurs landed here by submarine, he discovered that some of them had been sent back to Germany by Nazi Consul General Borchers. This same consul general paid Fish around $4,000 a year as rent on his house in New York.
 HOME-FRONT FLASHES
 Frank Grillo, able young secre- tary-treasurer of the United Rub- Der Workers, has made a very interesting suggestion to Presi- dent Roosevelt. Grillo urged the President to make a fireside chat addressed directly to the millions of Americans who came from the six countries with which the U. s. is at war-Germany, Italy, Japan, Hungary, Bulgaria and Rumania. Grille, of Italian descent, says the overwhelming majority of these Americans are loyal and patriotic but need to be helped and en- frightened" and he holds that the President is the one man to do this. "A fireside chat of this nat ture," he told Roosevelt, would bring forth an outburst of enthu- siasm from millions of humble wOrkmen who have remained si- lent on account of fear of. re- prisals." For the first time since World War I, the railroads can't get enough labor. Several years ago the carriers were laying of thousands, now they are hotly competing with industry for work CTS. Chalk up another war born substitute that will put money in farmers pockets. The fibre left after sugar cane is pro- cessed for its juice is being used in place of unobtainable cork in cold storage insulation board. Not only is the cane substitute cheap CT, but it is stronger and more effective than cork in keeping out heat.

 The short leg caused one-,lalf of his body to sag and be out of alignment half an inch. This meant that many of his organs were dis turbed from their natural position with the result that proper func- Tioning was rendered impossible. When the adjustment was made, nature had an. even chance to per- form her tasks, and the man soon got well.

Tugwell is busily engaged in purging all U. s. officials in Puerto Rico who do not agree with him. And as a part of this purge he has recently written letter to the Navy Department suggesting that Condr. Tom Hen ming, TugwelTs naval aide and former congressman from St. Louis, be transferred to Pearl Harbor, without being permitted to come to the United States en- route.
 What Tugwell fears is that Comdr. Henning may fall with in the White House spotlight and become governor of Puerto Rico himself.
 Comdr. Henning served several right members of Congress, re- signed to become prosecuting at torney of St. Louis and now is in Navy. Last year he was sent to Puerto Rico as Tugwell's aide. While visiting the United States about month ago, Comdr. Hen ming was interviewed by ex-Sena- tor Harry Hawes of Missouri and Walter Jones, both interested in sugar.
 HENNING SPURNS POLITICS
 After sounding out Henning on his views, Jones said: "I under stand Tugwell is not getting along very we'll in Puerto Rico and I'd like to propose your name for governor"
 To this Henning replied: "Ab- S0lutely mo-"
 Then would you give us per- mission to work for you behind the scenes, without your know ing about it?" Jones asked.
 T would not" replied Henning emphatically.
 When Comdr. Henning got back to Puerto Rico he told the incl dent to TugWell more or less as a joke, but the governor obviously was most irritated. Later Secre- tary Ickes wrote to Tugwell that he had proposed to Secretary of the Navy Knox, at Tugwells re- quest, that Comdr. Henning be transferred to Pearl Harbor. This was done.
 But Tugwell was not satisfied with the transfer alone. The Navy received a letter from him saying that Henning's name had been mentioned from time to time as governor of Puerto Rico, and Tugwell hoped that in the trans fer to Pearl Harbor Henning would be ordered direct to his destination without visiting Wash ington or the mainland fin fur therance of his ambitions, what ever they may be-"
 The Navy took the position that the U. s. Government had not yet reached a stage at which an American naval officer could be barred from visiting his homeland.
 Meanwhile, Tugwell has started a purge of Attorney General Malcolm; Walter Cope, his secre- tary; and Auditor Patrick J. Fitz- simmons, who made the political error of showing up the fact that Tugwell's offlce of Civil Defense spent $140,000 for administrative work alone-which for it's size Is just about record.
 There Is some question, how ever, whether Tugwell or those mentioned above will be out first. The ex-Brain Truster is getting on the nerves not only of the Puerto Ricans. but of some important people in Wash irgtOn. There is some talk of his resignation.

INSPECTION LANES
(Bridgeport Postl

NoAAOSCPOIL EOSUJ
 Temporary suspension of the au- tomobile inspection lanes in Con- necticut as matter of war emer- gency should not be left that way. The next session of the Legisla- ture should make the suspension permanent. The men hitherto em- ployed in this kind of work should be put on the highways either as inspectors for the Motor Vehicle department or as members of the State Police force.
 At any rate experience has dem- onStrated, and Governor Hurley has quietly recognized the general ineffectiveness of the highly ex- rensive automobile inspection lanes as a means of enhancing safety on the highway.
 Those who advocated inspection on purely theoretical grounds have had half dozen years of costly trial now, the net effectiveness of which has been practically zero.
 At no time was the slightest im- provement in accident rate in Con- necticut traceable to these lanes which cost so much both in money and inconvenience to the motorists of the state.
 On the other hand, every high way has cried aloud for better patrolling and for the stopping of those really dangerous practices which result in accidents.
 The speed laws of the state have been flouted and the safety au- thorities instead of advocating more reasonable rates of speed and more adequate enforcement have ignored this aspect of high way safety while they concen- trated their enthusiasm and sup- port on the futile inspection lanes.
 We hope that chapter in acci- dent prevention has been quietly ended fin Connecticut. It is ended for the present because the gov. ernor has chosen, with the ap- proval and cooperation of the

Views Of The Press

Motor Vehicle commissioner, to use the inspectors on other and more important work, thus spar ing the motorists the necessity of using precious gasoline and dwin- ding tires for the purpose of going to and from these lanes.
 The next Legislature should make 1t unanimous by altering the law to provide for a much more adequate highway patrol in the future and to leave inspection to those exceptional cases where 1t seems to be called for instead of putting every decent motorist on the spot, twice a year, and making him pay for the purpose of proving to the satisfaction of others that his car is safe for himself. If we want to save lives, enforce the present speed limits and safety laws. Concentrate attention on the reckless motorists, not the good ones.

Selected Poem
THE LEXINGTON

THE LEXINGTON Oseginald M Cleveland in the New York T1mes Proud ship to bear glorious bright name That sang of freedom, down the Coral Sea She forged the Lexington, toward destiny. Her swift brood was awing. Like wasps they came Upon the craft of Nippon bearing flame And punishment for blow of treasury, They struck and struck again to set men free From greeds and lusts that freedom would defame. What though victor, she sustained a blow That at the days dusk, brought her own brave
 death?
 The manner of her passing can portend But one victorious outcome. In the glow Of her own hres gallant to the last breath, She earned her heroes Lady to the end!"
