easily seen when the guanay is fly
ing. The pink feet contrast beauti-
fully with the snowy white of the
breast. The long slender bill has
red nasal warts at its base. During
courtship days, there is crest of
plumes on the back of the head.
The courtship ceremony of the
guanayes has often been observed.
The couple stand breast to breast
or side by side. They wave their
heads back and forth gently, touch
ing each others necks The nuptial
crests are erected and the neck
feathers puffed out. The cheek and
chin pouches tremble. and the wide
open beak makes chattering sound
The birds snap at each other. This
form of endearment is misleading at
first.
The summer season. December
and January are the courting
periods. 1t is believed that two
broods are raised by each couple
annually. Both birds are interested
in the building of the large hollow
nest. 1t becomes quite full of molted
quills. The greenish eggs are rather
small, and the babies arrive without
a feather to their back. Father or
mother guanay never permits the
direct rays of the sun to touch the
sensitive babies. Sometimes. these
youngsters like to wander away from
home. They are promptly brought
back and spanked" guanay fashion.
These birds never sleep on the
ocean. Early in the afternoon, vast
numbers of them return to their
roosting island. BY dark. the ground

well-known Peruvian guano' is

this guano has been sold to Europe.
Great Britain and the United States
Ancient Peruvians found they could
cultivate the desert places by using
this natural fertilizer that had been
provided for them. Naturally they
realized this priceless resource must
be legally protected. The first steps
taken by the National Guano Ad-
ministration made the many guano
islands a bird sanctuary. They are
closed to visitors the year round
The guanay is considered the most
valuable bird in the world, and
rightly so.

Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Revenge Is a word which the
world would be far, far happier
without. 1t means getting even by
doing to others. not as YOU would
have them do to you. but as they
have done to you in unpleasant
ways Revenge was what Reddy
Fox was brooding over up there
In the Old Pasture as he planned
to get even with Peter Rabbit for
getting him into trouble with Jimmy
Skunk Revenge was what Old
Granny Fox was planning as she
nursed the smarting places left by
the stings of the angry bumblebees
whose nest Digger the Badger had
destroyed near the spot where
Granny had been sitting making
fun of Digger. 1t wasn't revenge
on the bumblebees that Granny
wanted. She knew that that was
quite hopeless. Besides she didn't
blame them. How were they to
know that she had had nothing
TO do with the destruction Of their
nest? She had been sitting right
there when it happened and they
we're too angry to stop to ask ques-
tions. No, it was Digger the Badg-
er who filled the thoughts of Old
Granny Fox. You see she was
smart enough to guess that Digger
had disturbed those bees. knowing
that they would sting her. She
quite overlooked the fact that at
the time she had been making fun
of him and saving very unkind
things about him.
III get even with him; yes, sir,
I'll get even with him." she said
over and over again to herself. III
drive him from the Green Meadows.
I'll make him wish he never had
met Old Granny Fox. III show
him that no one can get me into
trouble and not fare worse than
! do"
So she talked to herself and her
ewes snapped and her lips were
drawn back in an ugly snarl and
she was not at all pleasant to see.
It seemed very much as If those
not-tempered bees had put their
hot temper into Granny when they
stunr her. My. how those stlngs
did smart! Granny knew what to
do. It wasn't the first time she had
been stung. She headed straight
for the Smiling Pool and as soon as
she reached it she rolled in the cool
mud at a certain place where the
hank was very low. The mud took
awav the heat and pain from the
stines and almost right away
Granny felt better.
But her temper didn't improve,
T. rrew worse if anything. That
mud was very soothing and COM
forting. but oh, how it did make
her look! Just think how you
would feel If, when you were wear

"Chug- rum" explained Grand
father Frog. It's very warm today
isn't it?" And then he laughed at
his own joke and Jerry Muskrat
, laughed with him. 1t tickled them
to think that one so smart should
have got in such fix Granny
paid no attention to them. Just
as soon as she was sure that there
was cool wet mud on every single
place where she had been stung
she sneaked home, keeping out of
sight of her neighbors. Once there
she began to plan how she might
get even with Digger the Badger.
For long time she couldn't think
of single plan that might not get
her into worse trouble than she
was in already You see if the
truth be told she was afraid of
Digger. That is she was afraid to
fight him. His teeth looked too
sharp and his claws too long for
her to risk a fight with him. She
would have to get some one else
to fight her battle for her But who?
She hadn't single friend to whom
she could 60 She would have to
get some one who was not her
friend and manage somehow to get
him into quarrel with Digger

PLACING CAUSE, BLAME
FOR DELINQUENCY

> Mayor LaGuardia has Joined the Choir
: us in airing views on youth delinquency
Z in the United States, fixing the cause and
giving the cure. The mayor is one of a
host of social workers, peace officers and
congressman in their declarations of the
glaring menace seen in young Americas
idea of the way of life.
Unfortunately it has become quite the
. habit to tie up youthful indiscretions
with the acts of hardened, criminal-bent
young men and women and still further,
and more unfortunate, that commentat-
ors have decided that men in uniform
are not helping the situation, indeed are
contributing to it.
LaGuardia decides that gambling is
the main root of evil and thinks horse
racing is the big stumbling block for the
youngsters. He would keep out of sight
all racing sheets and returns. Too bad
he isn't right. in his diagnosis and in his
cure The problems could be settled at
once.
1t is true that army camps, naval sta
tions and the like became problem of
morals. Barriers were set up, boards ap-
pointed to curb the vice rackets carried
on by lewd women and organized rings.
That has little to do with the youth de-
linquency problem as a whole.
After all, the blame rests In the coun-
try's homes, and likewise there lies the
cure. 1t might be said the parents are
contributing to their children's delin-
quency and not be far from the mark.
And it did not require war jobs, taking
mothers from homes to bring about this
fault.

F, of proper home and the youth deln-
quency problem will be solved. ard if the

BANKS PLAY VITAL PART
(Riverside Daily Press


The business of building airplanes in
wolves more than appears on the assem-
bly, line-considerably more.
At a hearing cf the house military af-
fairs committee, representative of the
aircraft industry On the Pacific coast
revealed that one large airplane COM
pany in California must issue over four
million checks annually in paying the
wages of its employees and meeting its
other obligations.
This means that the bank or banks
upon which these checks were drawn had
to handle over four million checks for
this one customer alone Add to this the
great number of checks issued by each
of the many aircraft companies, ship
yards and thousands of other concerns
engaged in war production, and you
gain some idea of the scope of bank
operations in support of the war effort.
Without question, banks are essential
industries They are also indispensable
to scores of other activities, among which
are the sale of war bonds, the handling
of ration accounts, and the supplying OF
payrolls for the Army and Navy. Modern
banking facilities help make possible the
enormous scale of activity which Ameri-
can war industries must maintain in or
der to meet present day needs.
Besides acting as disbursing agents
through payroll checks drawn on them,
banks also serve as assembly lines where
the dollars of individuals and companies
are gathered together and formed into
loans for war industries. In this way,
banks help to create the weapons of
victory.
Yes, many hands not seen on the pro-
duction line are helping to build the
bombers whose potent calling cards
are daily blasting our enemies.

VIA Director
Urges Vote
On Subsidies

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6. tUP)-
War Food Administrator Marvin
Jcncs, answering reports that the
administration is seeking to delas
a senate vote on the food subsidy
isue, Monday told the senate bank
ing committee he wanted an early
disposition of the controversy.
Administration leaders had been
reported seeking two months de-
lay in senate action. But Jones de-
clared he wanted farmers to know
what kind of a government food
program there will be next year be-
fore they plant 194a crops.
There is nothing as upsetting as
uncertainty he said. 1T takes
long time to grow crop. A man
ought to know what to rely on"
Senator John Bankhead, D., Ala,
a leader of the opposition to con-
sumner subsidies, at the same time
said he would not agree to a delay
unless sufficient reasons for post
poning decision now are made
public"
Reports had been that an effort
would be made to push through leg
islation extending the life of the
Commodity Credit Corp. beyond the
Dec. 81 deadline, but without the
controversial consumer subsidy ban
incluued in the bill as passed by
the house.
Bankhead and Sen. Robert A.
Taft, r., O., told Jones they were
glad to hear him say he wanted
early congressional settlement of
the question.
Jones asked for continuation of
the CCC's support price program,
which guarantees farmers a mini
mum price on certain crops. He also
asked that selected support prices
above ceilings be permitted, with
the government absorbing the loss
Wnen selling the commodity. This
would stimulate production without
raising consumer prices above cstab-
lishcd ceilings, he said.
The subidy ban would prohibit
setting support prices above CELL
ings as we'll as ban consumer roll
backs. The effect of the ban. Jones
said, would be to lift all ceiling
prices and TO break the Stabilisa-
ton line. He said it also would
bring support prices and ceilings
together, which wouldn't be help
full to holding the line

DECISIONS REACHED
AT TEHRAN PARIEY

! The long-heralded war conference
I fbetween Roosevelt, Churchill and Stain
is a matter of history Its imports and
results yet are to be written in that page
! in world history The world knows what
: the conference would do and that certain
, momentouS decisions would be made and
, il only remains to see them unfold as
time moves on. That they will come
swiftly there is no doubt.
We have shaped and confirmed our
common policy. This highlights the in
itial report of the parley. That was to be
expected.
But when these words further describe
action in the 100 hours at the war council
table i'm lran-"pledge themselves to the
destruction of German forces and an
enduring peace in free world after the
war, the world naturally asks when will
this all-out destruction start"
The picture undoubtedly will move
fast. To quote further from the Iran
Report mo power ON earth can prevent
our destroying the German armies by
land, U-boats by sea and war plants by
air." That this shall be accomplished
from the east and west and south. Un-
doubtedly the conference fixed time and
places for this final and victorious
thrust.
The report bristles with vigorous lam
guagc of this character, differing from
the cautious statements issuing from the
Casablanca conference initial report. Be-
tween the Casablanca meet and the Teh
, ran sitting lies the completion of the
, North Africa push and the conquest so
far in ltaly-both the unfolding of the
Casablanca commitments.
Ii generally is conceded among close
war observers that the Tehran and Cairo
conferences are the last before the gigan-
tr peace task begins.
Momentous as was the Tehran confer
ence, it will be shaded and dwarfed by
the world-sweeping action carrying out
the decisions made there.
