6 We in China, like you, want better world, not for ourselves alone, but for all mankind, and we must have it. It is not enough, however, to proclaim our ideals or even to be convinced that we have them. In order to preserve, uphold and maintain them, there are times when we should throw all we cherish into our effort to fulfill these ideals y -Maddme ChiGng Kai-shek

Riding a bicycle from Fairfax
County to this city early this CEN
tury is a pleasant recollection for
Albert s. Skinner, whose 48 years
continuous service makes him the
dean of the Postmaster Generals
Department.
From 1895 to 1907, Mr.. Skinner
was connected with the City Post
ONCE. He peddled 13 long" miles
over roads none too smooth for
bikes. Sometimes it was a weekend
trip to his boyhood home in Fair
fax; sometimes he made daily round
trips on his bicycle.
But his fondest "reminiscences con-
Germs 20-mile bicycle races-two OF
which he won-from the lower
reservoir to Angus Clubhouse.
Like many other timers here
I, remember when Florida avenue
was the north boundary of the Dis
trict," he unused.
Fishing is one of his pet hobbies
"let the deep sea fishermen
wrestle with marlin; ! get a kick
out Of fly casting for bass. Many
years ago there were bass in the
Potomac"
Mr.. Skinner, since 1907, has been
In the railway mail section of the
Post ONCE Department, and is highly
esteemed by his colleagues.

two-day walkout of approximately
$50 blast furnace employees of the
Tennessee Coal, Iron g. Railroad

a curtailment of steel manufacture
ing operations affecting several
thotsand additional workers.
A union spokesman, who described
the walkout as unauthorized, said
last night the idle furnace en-
ployes voted at a lengthy meeting
against returning to work. The
stoppage was attributed to dispute
over incentive pay. details Of which

unit of the South, continued in re-
duced production, with five Of nine
open hearth furnaces and the plate,
wire and nail mills operating The
plate mill is working on high prior
ity orders for the shipbuilding in
dustry.
Fairield's three blast furnaces
were banked yesterday, and the
company later announced the shut
down of four open-hearth furnaces,
tin plate mill, railroad accessories
mill and several miscellaneous units,
and 80 per cent curtailment in ore
and coking operations.
The number of workers affected by
the shutdowns was not available,

tailed were dependent on output of
the blast furnaces, he added.

duced the company's iron production
by approximately $500 tons daily,

hearths cut the output of steel ingots
by $500 tons daily.

director for the Congress of In

furnace employees voted against re-
turning to work despite appeals by
