Dynamite Cargo
By Fred Herman. Vanguard

Mr.. Herman is one Of the thou
sands of valiant men who are help
ing to win the war by delivering the
goods we and our Allies need. He
is, that is to say, merchant sea-
man. Last October he turned up in
Washington and. in story pub
lished in The Star, told of having
"just been through the biggest at
tack on a convoy in the history of
modern warfare. For four days."
he said, II was part Of battle in
which cargo vessels, bound for Rus
sia, were sunk by high altitude
bombers from a 1,500-foot ceiling
above, by U-boats attacking below
and by torpedo bombers flying Is
feet over the sea-"
Now Mr.. Herman tells the story
Of that biggest attack" all over
again-in greater detail, of course,
and therefore with added color and
suspense. It is a story that dem
onstrates what Madeleine Carroll,
in her introduction, aptly describes
as the extraordinary lonely valor"
| of our merchant seamen;: and,
though marred by somewhat
artificial colloquialism, it deserves to
be widely read. PHILIP H. LOVE.
David
By Carroll T. Cooney, Jr.
(HoUeH, SoSki11)
A 5-year-old's perception Of
rift in the family lutte must neces-
sarily be confused. He senses more
than he understands, and passes
what he perceives through the
small lens of his own emotions. A
book which tries to portray an
adult world through the mind of
such very young child must neces-
sarjly suffer from the faults of that
medium. Yet this very fault is a
compliment to the vision and sensi-
tivity OF the author of this novel,
While the plot may be somewhat
obscure, the characters of David
(the "I' of the book and his mother
and father, and the various other
characters which play their ap-
pointed parts in the story, are very
clear.
After all, in this book the char
acters are of primary Importance.
The plot is a very simple one of
misunderstanding, another woman
and reconciliation. But David,
his author father, his sensitive
mother, his little sisters and their
succession of nurses and maids,
make an interesting volume for pick
up reading. R. r. T.

powered with a vest-pocket edition
of the steam turbine engines used
in luxury liners. A gyroscope serves
as mechanical pilot during the
torpedos trip towards target, while
the waters surface.
Because the torpedoes are, in
effect, like a giant match with their
numerous precision parts, Mr.. Preis
said extreme care Is required not
only In their manufacture but also
in their inspection and testing. After
being tested in the torpedo plant for
speed, horsepower and endurance
the approved torpedo Is fired over
a measured course. Here the torpe-
dos performance must meet all
rigid requirements before issue.
One Of the plants in which the
torpedoes are being made was started
originally as large factory for
making fibre and metal cans, but
was converted last summer. A Sec
ond plant was erected at about TIE
same time specifically to make tor
pedoes One factory completed It's
first torpedo last August with the
second plant turning out VS. frs.
less than two months later.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-06-09

Since the contract Of the COM
pany's subsidiary, Amertorp, calls
for building more torpedoes than
any other manufacturer in the
United States, the present rate of
production considerably strengthens
the nations position in sea warfare,
according to Naval experts.
The mass production Of torpedoeS,
which includes the task Of making
the intricate horoscopes, has been
largely accomplished by new manu-
featuring techniques worked out by
company engineers and the Nays
torpedo experts, according to Mr..
PrciS.
In addition to its own torpedo
production, the company also has
supplied other concerns with tor
pcdo, parts, material and machinery
lists and layouts, designs Of tools,
jigs and fixtures, as well as special
machinery and equipment TO assist
them in getting their own aircraft
torpedo production under way, Mr..
Preis said.
A completed Naval torpedo weighs
about 5000 pounds, has more than
5000 precision parts, costs apprcXi-
mately $4,000 to build, and Is

White Plains, N. Y, June 9. -
CUP Mrs. Hannah Williams
Dempsey came out for her round in
her double barreled divorce suit
with Lieutenant Commander Jack
Dempsey today after Supreme Court
Referee J. Addison Young had re-
fused to dismiss the former heavy
weight champions complaint.
Recovered from the nervous COL
lapse" which kept her confined at
home during all OF Dempsey's por-
ton of the trial last week, Mrs.
Dempsey was in court today when
her attorney, Gerald Donovan,
moved for a dismissal Of Dempsey's
complaint on the grounds of fall
ure to prove any acts OF adultery as
alleged in the bill of particulars.
But Dempsey, an officer in the
U, S. Coast Guard was absent. His
attorney, Arthur F. Driscoll. said
he had been called back to duty.
at was the opinion Of his super
Tor officers in the Coast Guard that
the trial was taking too much of his
time" Driscoll told the referee. HE
has, however, half promise that
he may be permitted to testify on
rebuttal."
1t appeared therefore that Demp-
sey would hear none Of his wife's
witnesses dispute the testimony of
his witnesses that the former
musical comedy star had been init
mate with two men in the fight
racket, one being Benny Doodall
Dallas, Texas, fight promoter,
Private detectives testified last
week that they had accompanied
Dempsey last November % on
raid on Mrs. Dempscys Los Angeles
apartment. There, they said, they
found Mrs. Dempsey in bed and
Woodall running about the apart
ment clad only in panaka trousers
Woodall was In the rear Of the
courtroom when the trial resumed
after weekend recess. Mrs. Demp-
sey wore a tailored checked sports
suit and carried a red sports coat
purse and gloves. There was red
ribbon around her head In lieu OF
a hat and before court she COM
planned that her hair was out OF

BRAZIL TO SEND
m A MIC 0 A B.
RUBBER IN 1S43
BY DAVID J. WILSON
United Press staff Correspondent

Belem, State Of Para, Brazil CUP)
Ten thousand tons of "manicoba
rubber are expected to be exported
from Brazil to the United States
during 1913, according to officials
Of the johnson Wax Co. This COM
pany has several plantations here
Of "carnauba," which yields a wax
used in the manufacture Of several
products and is now branching into
rubber under the direction OF Her
bert c. Johnson, president Of the
company and presently residing in
Fortaleza, state Of Ceare, as repre-
sentative Of the Rubber Develop
ment Corp, supervising the trans
portation of laborerS from that
state to the Amazon valley.
The figure Of 10000 tons can be
raised within two or three years to
10000 or Is 900, equal to the amount
Of "hevea rubber" now being eX-
ported from the Amazon valley.
Transportation Is the main draw
back for an immediate large out
put Of "manicoba" rubber, although
its sources are nearer the sea than
those Of the "heVea rubber" and
situated in a more sanitary region
than the latter.
According TO those officials, the
"manicoba' rubber is in many re-
spccts superior TO the common
"hevca" type from the Amazon
valley as 1t does not require artifl-
cial coagulation; 1t coagulates by
Itself in the tin cup into which 1t
drips from the taps made on the
treSs.
The state Of Ceare alone has sew
eral thousand trees Of "manicoba'
rubber, many Of which at one time
or another have been developed by
international concerns. One huge
farm belonging to French concern
"Micheln' was abandoned in 1912
and today its trees, after a long
rest, present great possibilities OF
exploitation.
According to one technician Of
the Johnson Wax Co., who has just
returned from a lengthy trip
throughout the "manicoba" dis
tricts, that type OF rubber has the
same elasticity and the same quail
lty Of blending with synthetic rub
Der as the hevca type.

me, brother, l must be dreaming,
And I'm not the only one, Sail
ors and marines pinch themselves
every day here in the Royal Ha-

is operating the best rest and re-
cuperation center of this or any
other war.
To this famous resort, on whose
beaches and in whose spacious
lounges society frolicked now come
our service men to forget the hor-
rors of battle.
Odicial orders read - for those
who have performed hazardous
duties at sea-
RECOVERY NOT EASY
Submarines, leathernecks out
of ships and jungles, gobs from
the engine rooms and gun turretS
of the fleet--I have watched them
all these past few days, watched
taut nerves relax, light come
back into shadoWed eyes and smiles
TO tight lips.
This transition to the life Of
sunshine is not always easy.
Some discover they can't sleep at
first on the broad, spring
mattresses. Too soft SO they stretch
out on the floor until they get rid
OF their bunk muscles"
we think OF it as a huge dry
dock said one Navy officer,

are re-wired, engines tuned up

There is the Royal Surf Conteen

fore Pearl Harbor Day. And the
pretty girls still are there, now as
mattresses for the USO, Red Cross

other organizations which alternate
in handling the work of the can

There are the beer garden under

dining salons overlooking the sea, a

Dances are held regularly. and
sometimes Artc Shaw brings in
