The good old summer time arrived ear lv this year. The calendar date for the first day of summer is tomorrow, June 21, but already several major heat waves have visited us. Hot weather stories have featured ninety in the shade, and the Rockaways and Coney Island, and last but not least, Quassapaug Lake have had record crowds seeking cooling breezes and a good swim.

Sunday was hot day in New York City as we'll as elsewhere. Central Park, how ever, attracted one million people; not just those seeking the shade but visitors and residents eager to view the Weapons of War Exhibit. This included all man. ner of equipment now in use and its pur- pose was to stimulate bond buying. Sun day, though day of prayer and rest, was an active one in many respects, but the causes for action, bond buying and grad nations and so on, were worthy ones

GLOVE SHORTAGE
(Boston Post)

A manufacturer who in past years shipped five or six thousand dozen work gloves into Aroostook County. Me, for the use of workers in the fields has diverted his output to a camera manufacturing plant. As a result, women and children who have been asked to help out in the production of potatoes may be sub- jected to hardship. The situation has become so bad tha Congress man Fellows has appealed to the War Production Board for help, and has been told that the War Labor Board. which passes on wages to glovemakers may have to help. In this case it will be interesting to see if government red tape keeps the gloves away from workers who need them so badly.

1 WxuCIl acknowledge it's authority" You get that out of President Roosevelts statement of Aug. 26, 1943.
 But this statement goes on to make clear that 1t does not con- stitute recognition of a government of France or of the French Empire by the government of the United States"
 "Later on," says the statement, "the people of France in free and untrammeled manner, will proceed in due course to select their own government and their own officials to administer it."
 Secretary of State Cordell Hull amplified on that a little in his April g speech on foreign policy when he said, eve are disposed to see the French Committee of Na- tional Liberation exercise leadership to establish law and order under the supervision of the Allied command er-in-chief."
 HE'LL ASK FOR RECOGNITION
 That should have been large enough slice of concession to satis- fy even de Gaulle, but it was not. Coming to Washington, he will ap- parently want full recognition of his provisional government. What he wants, in effect, is to have British and American armies liberate France and as fast as they liberate 1t turn 1t over, lock, stock and bar rel, to his provisional government, sidestepping entirely the require ments of General Eisenhower and the military situation.
 This the British and American governments have refused to do, and the Russian and Chinese govern ments have gone along, although II other foreign governments have given full recognition to the com- mittee, and Poland, Czechoslovakia, Belgium and Luxembourg gave im- mediate recognition to the provi- sional government
 There are good reasons why U. s. recognition has been withheld. De Gaulle'S claims to being the ap- proved representative of the French people, the French underground, are open to the gravest of doubts. All he represents is his own gang-the &C., tive leaders now outside France and their contacts with the French un- derground.
 IT HAPPENED IN ITALY
 The parallel is to be found in Italy. Limited recognition was given the King and Marshal Badoglio, the only leaders available, until Rome could be freed. AS soon as that was done and people in Rome had been given a chance to form their own government, they selected as their premier one Ivanoe Bonomi who had had nothing to do with Italian government since the rise of Musso- lini, though he was not known as an active anti-Fascist.
 De Gaulle's efforts to take over the provisional governme ent of France are marked by clear chain of events.
 Early in May de Gaulle's London representative. Gen. Joseph-Pierre Koenig, began conferences with General Eisenhower on civil admin istration to be set up in France after invasion. When British communica- tions prevented General Koenig from relaying information to Algiers de Gaulle broke off the conference. That led to his being invited to Lon don by Churchill just before the in- | VaSion. but since that time he has done little save throw monkey wrenches into Eisenhowers invasion machinery.
 He now has in England thou sand or more officers trained to take over the functions of civil and military government in France-if they get the chance.

 MRS. WTsEACRE IN QUEST or
 DOCTOR
 I am arthritic and recently sent for your booklet 'The Rheumatic Ills" writes Mrs. Wiseacre, deyis. ing her own title for my booklet, perhaps as @ gentle rebuke to me for the title I give it-"The Ills Called Rheumatism" It was inter- estihg. but tried to find c Doctor who gives the vitamin D treatment you described. I made appointments with two doctors and found neither used the method. ..
 One doctor wanted to remove my tonsils. The second said that was unnecessary and wanted to give me Salicylates. They were both reput- able men. (Yea, and both true to form in regard to the tonsils.)
 Can you tell me how to find a Dr. here in ...... who gives the vitamin D treatment?
 Also, do you believe the taking raA = and mineral foods or ...... prod ucts without Dr.'s advice is safe. The ...... products are manufac- tured by chemists. I have talked with a nutritionist of the company, but she cannot tell me where can read up on the quality or effective ness of the products, except for her own literature. How should I go about getting information on such products? (Signed ......).
 In my personal reply I told the correspondent I feared she was talk ing the wrong course. advised her to choose a doctor, describe her complaint to the doctor in her own words (say lameness. pain, stiffness in this joint or that region, not "arthritis," for instance) and leave it entirely to the doctor to make his own diagnosis and prescribe or apply the treatment the doctor deems advisable or indicated" advised her that it is much better to leave to the doctor the prescrip- ton of any vitamins or minerals if such supplements are indicated"
 This tendency of the Wiseacres to attempt to impress the practi- tioners in the home community or, worse, to intimiadte them, is in- imical to the welfare of the Wise acres-and besides 1t is a gratuitouS waste of the time of the doctor.
 Take me. for example. Not that I know as much as WiSeacre, be- ing just a plodding country doctor who never made the front page ex- cept by sheer accident, but when I consult a doctor even if he pre- scribes a beaker of castor oil or basal metabolism measurements or plate of mashed potato I do not boggle-and you know how I de- spise all of these things-but take my medicine like a good little boy. If I didn't give the doctor that much confidence I'd be a ninny- hammer to consult him in the first nlare

Hollywood Experts
Work Under Fire 10
Film War in Italy
BY THOMAS r. HENRY,
Star War Correspondent.

ALGIERS, Jan. . (By MaiD =
Working almost daily under fire,
some of Hollywood's best known
cameramen and directors are pho
tographing an epic picture of the
Italian campaign from the moment
OF the. Salerno landing.
They expect the grand climax of
the film to be the entrance of
American troops into Rome. The
fllm Is due to a direct suggestion
of President Roosevelt that the war
should be portrayed in all its
grimness by some Of the foremost
masters of the art.
Generally directing the work, al
though not in Italy at this time,
are Col. Frank Capra, director of
Mr. Deeds Goes to Town" and
other hits, and 1t. Col. Anatole
Litvak, finer of Battle of Rus
sia," and Maj. George Stevens, we'll
known Hollywood director.
Experienced Hollywood Men.
Heading >the staff in Italy are
Majs Thornton Freeland and
Gordon Rigby, Capt. John Huston,
son Of Walter Huston, the actor,
and Capts. Ray Scott and Charles
Grayson. All have long experience
in Hollywood productions. Col
laborating with them is Maj. David
Mcdonald of the British Army.
finer of Desert Victory" which
is considered the nearest approach
yet made to the kind of picture the
President desires.
Among the cameramen are Sergt.
Robert Hopkins of Washington, son
of Harry Hopkins, and Corpl. Bern
Bernard, producer with Orson
Welles of Native Son." Also
working on the picture is Pvt En-
manuel Essman, in civilian life one
of New York's best known stage
directors.
Up to date one of the staff has
been killed in action and several
have been wounded. Sergt Hopkins
was in hospital for time with
pneumonia and when discharged
was routed back to a replacement
station. Fearing he would lose his
place with the outfit he jumped the
truck and was back on the front
line with his camera the next morn
ing, his comrades say.
Action Difficult to Portray.
A realistic picture of the fighting
in Italy which at the same time will
not bore the audience calls for the
best talents of cameramen and
directors, fllmers of the picture ex-
plain. The public has been con-
ditioned to the war picture which
shows action. But in this campaign
1t is practically impossible to por-
tray action.
For example, the most striking
scene Of the war to date was
probably the attack by troops of the
36th Division about a month ago.
1t was an ideal set-up for the
cameraman-a post on high, she'll
swept mountop overlooking an
amphitheater in which the fighting
was taking place. But absolutel;
nothing-except for an abortive tank
charge-was visible except the roll
ing artillery barrages The soldiers
of both sides were hidden in the
woods, creeping toward one another
from tree to tree. But out OF This a
scene was filmed by the experts that
will be one of the features of the
production.
