FRASER IS FOND
OF BIG WEAPONS
BY JOHN A. MOROSO, 3rd

NEW YORK, Dec. %. - (P -
Adm. Sir Bruce Austin Fraser, who
recently was placed in command
of British naval forces being as
sembled in the Pacific to help
America fight the Japanese, is a
pleasant bacneIor whose interests
range from hard-hitting, long range
gunnery to gardening, riding and
golf
He might have been a general
had he followed the career of his
late father, Gen. Sir Alexander
Fraser.
This ever-smiling 56-year-old
dapper but 1uiet-spoken man is
well qualified fer his new job. He
went into the Royal Navy in 1902
as a midshipman at the age of IA
and his career since then and par
ticularly during World War II
has been a series of brilliant sue
cesses.
Stocky and of medium height,
he is an excellent conversational
list who revels in salty tales and
battle stories Fellow officers and
ratings worship and respect him.
He is difficult man to interview
because he mas to follow the ira
ditional Royal Navy policy Of
speaking rarely and guardedly for
public alton.
Favorite With Americans
Grey-haired and ruddy, he be-
came a favorite among American
officers when u. S. fleet units
Joined the British home fleet in
1912 and 1913.
Fraser Immediately took it up
on himself 10 create good will
and unity between British and
American forces and he did much
to break down a certain feeling
Of stiffness that existed between
the two forces.
Fraser is an aviator himself
he once commanded the carrier
Glorious-and he respects naval
aviation as much as he loves the
smoking long range naval guns.
When the battleship Warspite
smacked the Italian battleship
Giulio Cesare with a 15-inch shell
from distance of more than Is
miles in 1940 officers credited
Fraser because of the training he
had given the gurnerS.
Commander OF Home Fleet
AS commander of the British
home fleet ne directed the con-
voying of thousands of tons Of
supplies to the Russian port of
Murmansk. Midget submarines
under his command sneaked into

could be managed and directed
in the air.
His first flight ended in a crash.
On his next attempt, he circled
the Eiffel tower, but was carried
wide by winds and crashed be-
fore ne could return to his point
of departure. 1t was with the
third balloon that he made his
successful round trip.
Santos Du.nont set about build
ing heavier-than-air machine.
After numerous delays, he made
the brief, but successful flight Tor
which he is honored. On landing,
he told the Paris press, 1T wasn't
the machines fault that l did not
fly farther. 1 still am not master
of its controls and was unable to
manage it today"
Two weeks later ne flew more
than 200 yards at heights estl-
mated at a yard or more and a
speed of 10 to ri miles an hour.
Returning to his homeland IN
1928, Santos Dumont lived for a
time in the Brazilian summer
capital, Petropolis, near RE de
Janeiro before his death in 1882.
The one-room frame structure
perched on the side of hill in
Petropolis is now museum con-

RIO DE JANEIRG. - Brazil
claims its own father OF modern

From the time the little Brazil
ian flew 60 meters in his bicycle
wheeled silk and bamboo plane
near Paris on Oct. %, 1906, his
countrymen have considered him
the man who made the first sue

Regardless of who was first,
history bears out the contention
that Santos Du,nont was a pioneer
of modern aviation and undisputed
inventor of the dirigible. On Oct.

motor-driven balloon, circled Elf

plants become stunted and occa-
sionally are killed outright. On
tomatoes the veins of the leaves
turn reddish.
T. Although the disease is spread
from plant to plant by the tiny
sugar beet leaf hopper, neither
spraying to control the insect nor
removing diseased plants seems
to help. Table beets and snap
beans planted in midsummer
seem to escape curly top infec-
ton and produce good quality
crops. With tomatoes, expert
ments show that the less the roots
are disturbed the less likely the
plants are to become infected.
Deep cultivation or hoeing near
the plants, or the pulling of large
weeds from the tomato rows
should be avoided. For small gar
dens, planting in the shade seems
to prevent spread and develop
ment of this disease, Click adds.

Attendance at Race Tracks Show
No Decrease in Car Owners
Upon receipt of the above re-
lease, being naturally given to
asking leading questions, we tele-
phone Mr.. Krauss and he tells
us that while there has been a
crew of workers delegated to
check cars which are driven to
Longacres track, and report APP
parent violations of regulations,
no noticeable reduction has been
made in attendance there. We
also questioned the flocks of gaso-
line driven pleasure boats that are
to be seen on the waters of the
state, obviously burning gasoline
for pleasure and nothing else. Mr..
Krauss tells us that his orders
come from higher up and that
he is powerless to stop these stu
ations.
Violators are Being Reported
In fairness to the OPA it should
be said that more than 1900 motor
lists have been reported to their
local boards as having attended
the races two Or more days, and
in addition 40 out-of-state cars
have been reported together with
what seems to be other violations.
Just what action is taken regard
ing these motorists rests with the
local boards who have the power
to withdraw gasoline rations. The
net result however is, up to this
time, negligible insofar as totals
are concerned. The races 60

Financial condition of the state

than any other state of like pop

have something to do with the vote
of confidence given Governor
Langlie at the primary election.
The general fund balance at this
time is approximately forty-one
million dollars, a gain of some
thirteen million dollars in the
past year. Total balance in all
funds is now near the seventy-four
million dollar mark. This may be
good place to say that the ma
tional debt now is more than
900 for every person in the
nation regardless of age.

Musts for Peach Canning

Musts for Peach Canning
To keep peaches from turning
dark and unattractive, drop peeled
and sliced peaches at once into
one gallon of water containing two
tablespoons salt and two of vine
gar. 49,. 7
Another important feature of
peach canning is choose sound,
ripe, firm peaches, cts dangerous
to use any with decayed spots,
because even if you try to cut out
all bad spots, some bacteria may
lurk to spoil the rest of the fruit
The boiling water bath method
is most satisfactory for canning
peaches oven-canned peaches
often turn dark and have greater
tendency to spoil.
Work with only enough for one
Gamer load at a time. Wash
peaches well, lift out of water.
Don't bruise. For easy peeling,
dip in boiling water a minute, then
dip quickly into cold water. A
wire basket or cheesecloth will
hold the fruit. Next Slip off
skins; take out pits, cut in slices
or, halves and drop into vinegar
solution. Drain when ready to
cool.
If fruit is juicy, add sugar half
cup to each quart of uncooked
peaches. Heat to boiling in kettle
and pack in peach juice. For less
juicy fruit, drop into a boiling
strip. Heat fruit through, but
don't cook until soft. If you're
canning without sugar, cook fruit
in its own juice, or add just
enough hot water to keep fruit
from sticking to pan.A
Pack peaches into hot sterilized
jars loosely, one at time, leaving
half inch head space. Cover the
peaches with boiling, liquid, still
leaving the half inch head space.
ct usually takes three-fourths to
l cup of liquid to a quart jar)
Work out air bubbles by running
a knife blade down the sides of
the jar and add more liquid if
necessary. Wipe jar rim and
adjust lid according to direction
for the type lid being used.
Work rapidly, putting jars into
Gamer as soon as filled. Check
to see that water comes over tops.
Put on lid to boiling Water bath
Gamer. When water boils hard,
count time, processing 20 minutes
(add / minute for each 1000 feet
above sea leveD. Remove jars,
adjust lids, if glass or zinc tops,
and set jars out to cool right side
up, on thick cloth or paper. Keep
them away from drafs or sudden
cold, but don't cover. Around 2
to 2 and one-haf pounds of fresh
peaches will yield one quart can

Army Curtailment
Of Holiday Travel
Announcemade Made

Mindful of the annual strain on
public transportation facilities dur
ing the holiday period before and
after Christmas, the Army has
taken steps to prevent further bur
dening buses, trains and planes, it
was announced today at Fort Doug
las.
"All government agencies have
been requested to refrain, except
in cases Of extreme urgency, from
granting annual leave to employees
where travel would be involved,
between December Is and January
s." said Major General William e.
Shedd, commanding general, Ninth
Service Command.
Curtailment of all government
business travel during this period
has been requested. So far as is
possible, without impairment of
the war effort, the calling of meet
ings involving travel by govern
ment employees during this period
is being avoided.
No increase in the usual maxi
mum of Is per cent of military per-
sonnel to be on furlough at one
time has been authorized. Such
leaves are granted so that they will
not begin on either December "a
or 80.

Predict Decrease
In Shotgun Shells
For Coming Year

Production of shotgun and other
shells will probably be less in 1945
than in 1914, unless Germany is
knocked out of the war. This in
formation was released to all game
departments in the United States
by A. Willis Robertson, chairman
Of the Select Committee on Conser-
vation of Wildlife Resources.
The total production of shotgun
shells for 1914 reached approx
mately 600 million, or about 100
million more than was planned at
the commencement of the current
year.
The War Production Board can
not permit manufacturing of any
more shotgun shells and rifle cart
ridges for civilian use unless Ger
many has capitulated.
