"CITIZENS WITH
RESERVATIONS"
By ANTHONY DAINUS
(The Detreit News, Aug. 19)

(The Detreit News, Aug. 19)
To the Editor: Your recent edi-
torial, Citizens With Reservations
has all the earmarks of the totali-
tarianism of both Mein Kampf and
The War and the Working Glass in
it's attempt to muzzle one of Amer
ica's most cherished rights, free
dom of speech.
You resented the fact that our
naturalized citizen does not see eye
to EYE with your Philip Adler on
international questions; meaning,
of course, the Soviet plan to de-
stroy or dominate neighboring re-
publics, and you concoct an edi-
torial threat, cit is high time that
something be said about him (the
naturalized citizen) publicly by
someone whose word has weight"
In the first place, your assump-
ton is based on the false premise
of "naturalized citizen. You GER
tainly have not conducted a survey
as to the citizen status of these
champions of small nations, while
on the contrary this writer can per-
sonally vouch for the native citizen
ship of many Of these Americans.
In the SECOND place, your thesis
must be verv embarrassing to the
same Mr.. Adler, for in his case it
nroves a boomerang since he is a
Russian-born naturalized citizen. To
quote you, "if the new citizens
preoccupations lie outside our life
and national interests !. he is one
Of US under false pretenses", which
fits the gentleman to a tee since
he with monotonous invariability
constantly defends the Soviet poll

cy, which as any child will tell you,
is usually opposed to American
democracy. whats sauce for the
goose is sauce for the gander" If
your naturalized citizen Alder is at
liberty to delve into Old World
politics, so are native-born citizens
However, Mr.. Adler should be
commended for his renewed criti-
cism of my recent letter, for in it
he abandoned the Unanimous pleb-
iscite" as Russia's claim to Lithu-
ania, but instead unfortunately ap-
peals to "The Statesman's Year.

In view of the puny reasons he
had submitted and in view of the
fact that Mr.. Adler is a student of
Russian affairs, I would like to ask
this parting question: What is the
Soviet's main claim to Lithuania
or why does it plan to seize her?

RULES ON HOME CANNING TO
PREVENT ACCIDENTS

To help home Gamers prevent ac-
cidents, canning specialists of the
Department of Agriculture have pre-
pared IL safety rules. They are:
1. Avoid oven canning. Exploding
jars cause serious accidents.
2. Inspect jars to be sure there
are no cracks, bubbles or other de-
fects. These are danger spots that
may cause jars to break.
3. Try out jar tops and make sure
you know how to adjust them cor
fectly. Some tops require looser adj
justments than others and if too
tight during canning steam built up
in the jars will cause them to break
A. When using the three-piece type
of jar top, leave enough give" to
allow air in the jar to escape during
canning The metal screw band must
be screwed loosely over TIE glass
lid and top-seal rubber so that the
threads are just meshed in enough
to hold the top in place during can
ming.
5. Avoid burns on your hands by
using a thick cloth or good strong
tongs to pick up Eot jars.
g. Turn saucepan handles so they
don't come out over the edge of the
stove.
Z. Watch boiling water bath con-
tainer so that it doesn't boil over
and maybe put out a gas fame.
s. Make sure steam pressure
gauge is clear and clean, so that
steam can escape from the pet cock
freely.
8. Make sure there is enough water
in steam pressure Gamer so it does
not boil dry.
TO- Slide any hot or heavy con-
tainer away from the heat rather
than try to lift it.
IL. Before opening a steam pres
sure Gamer, let the pressure drop to
zero, wait minute or two, then
open the pet cock slowly.
IL. When lifting a steam pressure
Gamer lid, tilt the far side up to pro-
tect yourself from escaping steam.

Editor Midland Journal:

Editor Midland journal:
Some weeks ago you published ac-
count of the death of VIM. E. Church
man, of Easton, Pa, founder of the
Churchman Business School in that
place. In addition to the account of
otker members of the family living
in Wilmington and that they former
ly lived near North East, it may be
of interest to state the family was
originally from the Calvert section.
And the father of the deceased, Chas.
Churchman, was blacksmith at the
Krauss shop, near us, where the sub
ject of the sketch was born. The
sons success in starting to the Will
mington business school was enjoyed
by the father, who was friend of
the writer.
The Churchman family is now ex-
tinct in the Calvert section, where in
the time of the first Friends of Not
tingham," John Ckurchman was a
prominent minister, and with VIM.
Brown, visited England and the Con-
tinent in that capacity.
The Business School at Easton is
still conducted by the family and the
letter-head to the writer has a pic
ture of the new and imposing build
ing erected to the deceased for it's
accommodation.

age" with respect to car use. at just
isn't possible" the Club says, 'for
the old cars now on the road to out
last the war unless their owners stop
operating on a. pre-war basis"
The Club calls attention to rec
ent survey conducted by the Public
Roads Administration and 23 State
highway departments and the Dis
trict of Columbia which showed that
So per cent of the vehicles in those
states are now six or more years old
and that II per cent of them are ten
years old, or older.
From the analysis of information
submitted in the study, it appears
that 40 per cent of cars are owned
by workers in four industry groups
essential to the war effort-agricul-
ture, mineral extraction, manufac-
turing and producing, and transpor-
tation. Another Is per cent are own
ed by workers in construction and
government industry groups essen
tial to prosecution of the war.
"In recent months" the Club
statement adds, 'car use has increas-
ed enormously, although rationing
restrictions have not been relaxed.

Black market gas, the sale of which
has reached scandalous proportions"

WIRE FOR FARMS

Farmers in this state during the
second quarter of this year used only
one-half the states quota of copper

eral local jurisdictions to produce
State revenue. With this as meas
ure it is found that although the poor
er jurisdictions do indeed receive a
greater proportion of the total grant,
ed by the State, those with the small
est indicated ability to contribute to
the State budget do not receive the
most State aid. In these calculations
the effect of the varying assessment
practices throughout the State are
taken into account.
In the following tabulation there is
shown the percentage of State aid to
each of the jurisdictions and what this
amounts to on per capita basis. Next
is shown the ratio of this per capita
aid to per capita revenue; then what
the per capita figures for State aid
would be if adjusted to the needs of
each jurisdiction as indicated by it's
revenue producing ability. In the final
column is shown what the adjusted
ratio of aid to revenue would be in
such a case. The entire analysis is
based on the years 1940-41-42.
