Decoration Day Near; FIaq Should Be Flown
 Weather Favorable
By JACK STINNETT

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Decor- alton Day is just around the cor ner. That means everyone who has a flag should display it on that day.
 What I'm wondering is whether everyone knows that Congress has laid down the law about display saluting and honoring the flag.
 For example, if Decoration Day is rainy too windy or otherwise affected by indictment wehther, " the flag should not be flown at all; and that until noon on that day, it should be flown at half mast. That last law is probably violated more often than any other in the whole flag code.
 Decoration Day is just one of several when the flag is to be flown. According to law, just as import ant days are New Years, Inaugur- ation Day, Llncoln's Birthday, Ar my Day, Easter Sunday, Mothers Day, Flag Day. Independence Day, Labor Day, Constitution Day, Col umbus Day, Navy Day, Armistice Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas plus any other days that the President shall -designate-and all state birthdays and holidays.
 There is a score of other reg ulations. The U s. flag can't be draped around float, for instance.
 Most interesting, however, is the fact that the old flag salute for civilians-raising the right arm to parallel the brow, with the palm open-is no longer good form, or even permissible That, says Con- gress, is too much like the Fascist and Nazi salutes The Schickelgrub- CTS sWiped it from us, therefore we will no longer have any part of it.
 Just what will happen to you if you don't obey these laws is NOTH- ING, except that you had better not try to look your neighbors in the face. Congress has provided no penalties, but if you consistently violate this statute, watch out for ire FBI. J. Edgar Hoover's boys will want to know why.

Joseph H. Levi Estate
Is Valued at S168,000

Joseph H. Levi, an executive su-
pervisor OF Kay Associates, Inc, and
president of the Marx Jewelry Co.,
who died in New York August 30,
left personal property valued at
more than $4,000, it was shown in
the petition to the will filed yes

Of wills Office at District Court.
Mr.. Levi, who lived In the West
chester Apartments, died at the age
of So while on a trip. He had su-
pervision Of a number of Kay jewel
ry stores.
The will provides that the bulk
OF the property-including more
than $4,000 in cash, a considerable
sum in stock in Kay Jewelry Stores
in various sections of the country
and insurance-be placed in trust
for his widow Mrs. Rosaline K. Levi,
and three children.
The will makes specific beouest
OF $1,000 to his sister, Mrs. Selma

connection, he told a press confer
ence in New York:
Bishops and church leaders
should visit some of the posts into
which their clergy are sent. If they
saw the need that exists, they would
send more men into the Army"
One factor which is believed to
have contributed to the insuficiency
Of chaplaincy candidates from the
Protestant churches is that many of
the clergy are married men with
families dependent on them. In
other cases, clergymen fear that, if
they volunteered for chaplaincy
service, their seniority rights would
be lost. There is also, in many in
stances, the fear that new posts
may be difficult to obtain when the
war is over.
Only two denominations, the
United Presbyterian and the Unita-
rian, have already filled their 1e43
quotas.

tons have failed to meet their
chaplaincy quotas. and the question
now appears to be: Where are the
overseas chaplainS to come from?
The Army Chief of Staff, Gen.
George C. Marshall, has fatty de-
clared that no fighting unit must
leave the United States without its
chaplain, and, under present ar
rangements, one chaplain is being
provided for every 900 men. This
compares with World War ratio
of one to 2,400.
Stop Gap Measure.
The solution to date has been to
take the needed chaplains from the
ranks of those serving the Army at
home, but this can only be a stop
gap measure and eventually the
transferred clergymen will have to
be replaced, if the 1-to-90O allotment
is to be maintained.
The ultimate and only practical
solution, according to Chief of
Chaplains Arnold, rests with the
churches, which must be prepared,
If necessary, he declares, to rob
their parishes" in order to meet
their chaplaincy quotas. In this
