It was Henry Duckert's turn
TO laugh Tuesday night as Cow
cred Wagon climbed into second
place in the Major Softball
League with a IL to 8 decision
over Hubarth & Schott. Earlier
in the season Hanks" brother
Marvin, who pitches for the
Lumberjacks, had a chance to
give the needles to the Trailer
moundsman as H. G. S. handed
Covered Wagon a to 2 beating.
But it was a different story
Tuesday.
Hubarth & Schott literally
threw the game away as the
team committed II errors and
gave M. Duckert very poor sup
port. Half of the Trailer scores
were the result of hobbies and
wild throws. The winners were
charged with four misplays.
After scoreless first inning,
both teams started parade
around the bases which lasted
for five frames. Covered Wagon
took the initiative in the top of
the second and connected for
three markers. Pfeil singled but
was forced at second by Bernie
Shields. The latter stole second
II. Duckert beat out bunt and
when the first baseman let the
throw get through him, Duckert
went to second. Shields had
gone to third on the hit and
started for the plate on the mis-
play at first. A poor throw TO
the plate permitted him to reach
home safely. Harold Redloske
flied out, but Dale Snyder sin
gled, Duckert going to third and
coming in when an error was
made on the play. Vic Browne
was safe on another bobble and
Bob Kolp singled TO drive in
Snyder. Warren Ray ended the
inning by striking out.
SIEWERT TRIPLES
The Lumbermen got two of
the runs back in their half of
the second. Ralph Siewert
tripled and Pat Parker singled
him home. The latter stole sec
ond, moved to third on an in
field out and scored after
Shields caught Don Trombley's
fly in center field.
Some more weird softball in
the next stanza permitted CIV to
tally three more times. John
Fleming was safe on an error
with one out. Pfeil sent him to
second with a single and the
bases were loaded when an err
ror was made on H. Duckert's
grounder. Redloske hit to short
and reached first safely as the
H. & S. infielder booted the ball.
Fleming scored on the play and
was followed across by Pfeil
who was called safe when the
Lumberjack tic her dropped
the ball after tagging him out.
A moment later Duckert stole
home for the sixth CIV run.
1t was SieWert again who had
a hand in the scoring in the
third for H. & S. M. Duckert sim
gled to open the session. The
next man famed, but Boards
lees grounder was fumbled,
Duckert coming all the way
around. Pete Heller flied out,
but SieWert blasted out a long
home run to deep center field,
Beardslee scoring ahead of him.

ate activities Of all Government agencies dealing with demobllization.
 The House of Representatives has been wrestling with legislation for speedy and equitable final settlement" of war con- tracts, and in it's proceedings the House has followed the general provisions of Senate action that has been ln line with recommendation by Bernard M Baruch, White House advisor. The fact that the two branches of Congress have stepped out and taken charge of postwar recon version instead of leaving the iob to countless Administration agencies, is most encouraging. The Senate and the House are planning effectively against any repetition of economic chaos and piloting an orderly return to postwar days. This is a tremendous job, and it places the responsibility on Congress to restore employment to returning soldiers and sailors, and reestablish the basis for sound relations between employers and workers

Views Of The Press

to prevent aggression and preserve peace
 On the domestic side the platform is largely a review of New Deal leg- islation already enacted, with a promise of further benefits to come -hepeflts which will in some eases add substantially to Federal expen- dituFes. Yet taxes, somehow, are to be reduced, The Republican party also hit upon this painless formula ln its Chicago platform.
 We believe that racial and FeH. glons mlnoritieg haze the right to live. develop and vote equally with al citizens end share the rights that gre guaranteed by eur Consultation. Congress should exert It's full con. stitutional powers to protect these rights.
 This e a clear victory for the liberal element Of the party, and represents, surely, what should be said and done if We gre not to have two classes Of citizens In the United States.

Freedom in Lap of Congress

Instances of unjustified regulatory op- precision In the name of the war emcr- gency, are accommodating with frighten- ing rapiGity. Even more frightening is the growing evidence that the citizen cannot seek relief from this oppression through the judiciary. Recent attempts to secure court review of War Labor Board decisions and OPA price decrees have re- vealed that the emergency" laws creating such agencies are SO drawn as to either deny recourse to the regular courts or, as in the case of violation of retail price regu- lations, make of the courts mere inStru- ments of harsh enforcement.
 If a retail merchant violates a price rule, the minimum penalty has been $50 fine plus lawyers fee and costs, be- cause that is what the Emergency Price Control Act calls for. The courts have held that according to this law it doesn't matter if the overcharge is as little as one cent, or if it occurred admittedly through an honest mistake of the merchant or his employe. The good faith of the merchant has nothing to do with it. The fine is still $50. Thus every petty snoop and Shyster lawyer in the country is encour- aged to search for the inadvertent penny mistakes of retailers, with the assurance of rich reward for each mistake found.
 One judge, in passing sentence under this travesty of democratic government, stated "If there is any element of justice, morality or right in compelling respect able and honest merchant such as the defendant in this case, at such time as the present when experienced clerks are scarce and hard to obtain, to pay pen atty of $50 for an innocent mistake of ten cents by an inexperienced clerk. in which the employer who is so mulcted had no part whatever, have failed to discover It."
 The war emergency and fear of infla- tion have driven the country to the verge of despotism. Congress is the last official body to whom the people can turn for relief It can rewrite the laws and curb the authority of administrative agencies now threatening the foundation of Amer ican freedom.

A Thought for Today
Nnxism and Prussianism-From the
 Same Mold

We encounter difficulty when we try Co penetrate into the motives behind the attempted assassination of Hitler by the German Army clique. We have no diffi- culty, of course, in experiencing why anyone would want to kill off the whole Maxi crowd, but it is obvious that the aims of the ould-be-assassins extended far beyond the mere extermination of "der fuehrer'.
 The history of Prussianism in Ger many, which is the history of the hier- archy of the German army, is as unsav- 0ry as that of the NaZis and while the means taken by each to gain its end may seem divergent-in reality, the personal ambitions of both possess a stark simi- larity; ruthless conquest following by crushing domination Of the victim has always been the one and true aim of both these factions.
 Realists as they are, these Prussian group members would lot kill Hitler mere ly for the sake of exterminating him. They would gain little by such crude act and undoubtedly would bring down upon their heads the tottering shambles of the German nation and be buried under the force of it's broken bulk.
 Instead, the assassination of Hitler likely was to be the fuse to be used to blast apart wedge in the Allied demands for unconditional surrender. An opening through which the PrusSian faction might escape to the tents of a civilized enemy, there to seek terms which would free them from any penalties as war criminals: terms which would permit the reforming of their ranks in the decades to come.
 It must have been necessary for them to have definite assurances of some kind that the opening to escape would be there once this fuse was lighted and the charge exploded. Otherwise, we repeat, the simple assassination of Hitler and his higfer-ups would result in nothing other than disastrous upheayal by the people whose entire sense of security would have been shattered.
 Some definite indications of a better way out for Germany, other than war, would have to be shown the people, by this group proceeding the murder of the Nazi gang. 4 way which would include surrender terms from the Allies that would loom benevolent and welcome to the war and bomb weary Germans.
 The coup by this group would be. fore most, for personal reasons-to save their own skins, and then as means for tn' ture perpetuation of the Prussian ideol0gy Of mIlitarisn. The negotiations with the enemy forces were to be completed be- fore the unbridled hordes from Nazi occupied countries could sweep into Ger many and meke-out the revenge they must thirst fef,
 It remains to be seen, from future de- velopments, whether the plot was tail. uFe. II may have opened a deep wound in the Nazi side which will become malignant sore eventually destroying the entire strength of the Maxi body. It IS definitely a sign Of deep and serious ufl' rest, and despite BeFiin's claims tt can not be construed ag the wild actions Of few, minor fanatics.

Nurses Needed

Your corner druggist with 56.000 of his colleagues throughout the country) has added to his varied assortment of jobs and services. He has been selected to beat the drum in a recruiting cam- paign for the United States Cadet Nurse Corps. The corner drug store is a like Iy place to find recruits, and we hope the pr0prietors' efforts will be successful.
 This recruiting campaign is import ant. The nursing profession. like the medical, has sent thousands of members to the Army ard Navy. Civilian health care has been seriously curtailed, The U. s. Public Health Service says that at least 65, 900 new student nurses are need- ed as a reserve force to relieve shortages in hospitals. health agencies and war plants,
 The cadet nurse receives more than the opportunity for a valuable war con tribution. She gets complete, though accelerated, instruction which prepares her for a nursing career if she cares to choose 1t. She gets uniforms. naipten' ance and spending money, With almost all pFe.medieal students in the service, the doctor shortage shows little chance of improvement. 4 full response to the call for cadet nurses can do much to lIp' prove the country's general health ple' tufe,

~cancer Is the most dreaded word in the language. Arthritis, a ruth less word, cripples as many aged as the disease itself" An editorial quotes these statements from Q book on geriatrics told age and it's dis- casesD and says amen to them.
 Several months ago I paid my re. spects to that book on geriatrics and Co two or three other recent books on the same subject. in this column. I had examined them in the hope ot finding something fresh. something new. since they were the first text- books of geriatrics, which has not yet. though it may become a held Of practice for specialists, provided we can persuade the pediatrtsts 70 release a few patients from their supervision when patients get along past thirty or forty years of age.
 The fight against cancer cannot bring any great victory as long as there are many people with the at. titude of the writer of that editorial. What less dreaded term can or should an honest doctor use when confronted with signs or symptoms which may possible spell cancerg The head-in-the-sand position the editorial writer approves may be all right from his point of view. It would be criminal for doctor. It is the sacred duty of the doctor In such circumstance to tell the pa- tient or the patients family at the earliest possible moment that tiD he fears the trouble is cancer but he cannot be sure as yet.
