have trouble reading let alone writ ing.
 If the sheet printed interviews tvery doubtful 1t would be because 1t had somebody who could write them entertainingly not because 1t felt that the interviewee had anything worth saying. The onlr excuse for the interview is sunnins scrivening.
 Losing presidential candidates would be treated with respect, not with low bows. Which means tha. not everything loser comes out with Is worth a column. Some of it is no better than a quote from Tommy Manville.
 The word of reporter would rate above that of a protester, especially If the latter were a public figure It's automatic in city rooms that the newspaperman has more reason to stick to the truth than an office holder. It's his most valuable as- set--which isn't necessarily the case with the opposition. Also, the re- porter has more to lose-his job by straying from the truth. The squawker only loses the decision.
 Nothing would ever get Into the columns so muddy as the Sunday pieces on the Ruml compromise plan. They were so loaded with federalese reading them was more painful than paying the taxes.
 We'd battle for freedom for all the press--or just say nothing about it. The powerful dailleS always tell how precious this freedom is, but there is no record that they ever came to the help of the smallies which were being fitted for tight muzzleS,
 Voluntary statements for prom inent citizens seeking a free sharS- ening of their axes would be re- turned with card bearing these words: "Who asked youP"
 Any columnist who slanted his l idcuo gO JUG WllIlJ llc SUGeb DOll- ] cies would be told he'd be happier elsewhere. Why pay him salary when you can get whole package Of cartoons for a dime2
 An editorial writer would be fined $500 for each offense for using the phrases, free enterprise" loyal op- position" and i've are in favor of trade unions, but" Not because they're clichey, but because they make him out such a clumsy liar.
 Funny statements would get comic coverage. Like Harrison Spangler s demand that FDR (three times the peoples choice) skip his fourth term ambitions in order to promote na- tional unity, The c. o. P. chair man sees unity as something which brings all the voters over to his side.

PRIECS TO VARY
 IN MEAT MARKETS

Waterburys housewives will save about two per cent when the new meat ceiling prices take effect Monday, local dealers have esti- mated. Provisions for less trimming of meat, however, are expected to result in greater expenditure Of ration points.
 With the government set to com pensate processors of meat for the difference between purchase prices and ceiling limitations, much of the black market activities are ex- pected to be ruled out, It Is pointed out. however, that the public will probably finance the government subsidies through increased taxa tion.
 One advantage Of the new cell Ing schedule pointed out universal ly is that confusion on legal prices will be cleared. Meat prices will be uniform at all stores after Monday, with only a slight difference per- mitted for markets which do busi- ness of more than $250000 annual ly. At the present time the cell ings are based on the March, i942. prices of each individual store. re- sulting in a great variance among markets.

REALTY COMPANY
 LOSES DECISION

Mohawk Realty company's re- quest to transfer the states con- demnation proceedings involving Westheld lond from the New Ha- ven superior court to the U.V S. district court was denied in a deci- sion handed down by Judge William II. Comley in the New Haven court. The jurist pointed out the states interest was involved and the state court was the proper place for a hearing,
 The state desires to use the land for completion of tho Wilbur l.. Cross parkway and has appraised 1t at $2,850. The concern claims It's value is more than $l00J000. Party plaintiffs in the action are two mort- gages, one of whom claims she has made q $l2,000 loan secured by a mortgage on the land.

There would be no set political policy. The sheet would support men and ideas, not parties, Any of fiee-seeker who craved the papers back-pats would have to earn them, not inherit them from Abe Lin- coin, The paper would reserve the right to drop its favorites like hot potatoes at the first sign of welsh ing on promises or bilking the pro- letariat.

Reporters would be ordered to walk out on "off-the-record" con- fidences. The idea being that the spieler has something to say, or he hasn't--which Is all paper wants to know.

This view was corroborated by
Senators Mead and Brewster, who
made the 40,000-mile trip as
members of the Truman commit
tee. Senators Chandler and Lodge
who also made the trip, have not
yet returned 10 Washington.
The general program. as out
lined by the committee;
1-Negotiations now 10 obtain
American postwar air rights IN
other nations and military and
commercial use of hundreds of
air fields built with army, navy
and lend-leaSe funds.
2-Immediate preparation for
handling civil government in
occupied countries an event Of
a German collapse.
3-lmmediate appointments OF
strong and able men of cabi-
net caliher 10 administer and
coordinate diplomatic and lend
lease efforts abroad. 10 place
America in a favorable light.
4-HaYe both the army and
navy give the public a fuller
picture Of battlefront conditions
so that all will have a clearer
idea of the tremendous task
ahead.
5-Order the Office OF War
Information TO issue Informal
ton sooner and reorgdHize- its
foreign propaganda branch so
il can clearly show this ma
tons contribution 10 the war
effort.
6--Arrange now TO avoid fur
Their depletion OF petroleum re-
serves by supplying the United
Nations TO a great degree from
deposits in Iran, iraq and
Arabia.
ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN
Russell said that anything can
happen in Germany right now. ="
but predicted that the entire war
would not end before 1945.
I'VE are at a point where
there can be no letup I'm pro-
duction, shipping or any other
phase Of the war effort" Brews-
ter asserted.
Zone OF the foremost con-
Germs of men at the fronts is
the way people at home feel
about the war. There has never
been any blOodier fighting any
where than at Munda Point, in
tha Solomons. We went I'm on
. xhoestring. There were moro
Japs than anticipated. We won
by an eyelAsh. Our men had
t. learn. A Jap would wait
many hours 10 move 100 yards
in order to get our men,"
Brewster said there is reason to
believe that japan has doubled
ship production since Pearl Har-
Dor and has enough steel TO carry
her a year.
NONE HAS ENOUGH
Eve saw no commander any
where in the Pacific who IL get
ting what he should have I'm
men and mAteriel,' said Mead,
but they realize the European
theater has q priority and are
waiting their turn"
The senators described the work
OF Gen. Macarthur as nothing
short of miraculous" All believed
that his latest criticism of Pacific
strategy was for Australian con-
sumption, the Australians being
10 leadership Of Lord
Louis Mountbatten.
The senators quoted Australian
Prime Minister Curtin as saying
that "Mountbatten cannot be ap-
pointed Pacific commander with
out Australian consent and ! am
not for that"

WPBAuthofized
Sale Of Tools

Although army officers here
claim they were ordered by a
high command 10 dispose or I'M
used material 10 make room in
warehouse, WPB officials today
told Senator Ferguson Of the Tru-
man investigating committee that
they had recommended but not
ordered sale of the material.
The central procurement diW-
sion OF the air forces is charged
with selling $1,400,000 worth of
tools for $4,000. The Truman
probe was started after two De-
troit tool dealers had charged ir-
regularities in connection with
the sale.
When the charges were first
made public Col. A. T. johnson,
executive officer for the procure
ment division, said the tools were
obsolete.
Senator Ferguson said the tools
originally were purchased by the
Studebaker Corp. for an airplane
engine which later was transfer
red to the Wright aeronautical
plant at Lockland, O.
Ferguson said he was trying to
determine why the tools were not
transferred with the order.
The senator also said that he
had asked the army for an inven-
tory of the material TO determine
If any of the items could be used
on war work. He said the inven-
tory might delay his report to the
Truman committee.
