NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-Several
National Football League rockies
gave spectacular performances
during the season but only one
Steve Van Buren, of the Philadel
pnia Eagles, made the All-Pro
team, selected by The Associated
Press and newspaper sports writ
ers.
It's quite an eleven the experts
have named for 1914 honors. There
are four men who were on last
years team, three second-year
men, two three-year men, and one
veteran of an All-team a few years
back.
The Eagles, New York
Giants and Chicago Bears
each landed two men. The
Washington Redskins, Green
Bay Packers, Brooklyn Tigers,
Detroit Lions and Cleveland
Rams. all place one player.
The veteran Packers end, Don
(Clutch) Hutson, who has won ma.
tional honors seven years in a
row, heads the repeaters from
1943. The others are Frank (Bruis-
err Kinard, Tigers tackle; Clyde
(Bulldog) Turner, Packers cen
ter; and Sid Luckman, Bears
quarterback.
Moving on the the sophomores
on the team, they are Bill Pas
chal, Giants fullback, the great
est League ground gained for two
years; Frank (FirebalD Sinkwich,
enc of the leading rushers and
passers in the circuit; and AL
Wistert, Eagles tackle, a tough
hombre to smack down.
The three-year men are Len
Younce, Giants guard and Joe
Aguirre, Redskins end. Guard
Riley Matheson, of the Rams who
played his sixth season, made the
Au-pro team in 1912.
Hutson, Kinard, Turner
Younce and Sinkwich were
unanimous choices of all the
balloters. Hutson was the only
unanimous choice in 1913.
Most of the experts said that

Close Watch Urged
Against Disclosure
Of Military Secrets
By the Associated Press,


The Advisory Board to the press
division OF the Censorship Ofice
has advised the Nations editors
that. with the military situation
in Europe approaching the critical
stage" the closest possible watch
must be kept over disclosure of even
the slightest military secrets.
The situation is at a stage, the
board said, where even an mad
vertent slip, careless speculation or
ill-advised comment might cost the
lives Of thousands of our fighting
men,"
"It becomes imperative" the
board continued, "to give not casual,
but most earnest and ever-present,
consideration to the censorship
code to which newspapers have
subscribed. ."
I'm short, now is the time for all
Of us to show that we will keep the
faith"

New Treasury Demand
For More Revenue
Expected in Spring
By the Associated Press.


Tax simplification may be the
peg on which the Treasury will
hang another demand for added
revenues next spring.
Department officials pointed sig
nif1cantly today to President Roose-
velt's recent budget message in
which the Chief Executive urged on
Congress the need for additional
revenue beyond that provided in the
bill now pending"
Secretary Of the Treasury Morgen.
thau, asked at his press conference
whether the Treasury would seek
additional revenue this year, said he
was not prepared to answer, but he
added, Just at present I'm suffer-
ing from malnutrition-on the tax
front"
Although Capitol Hill at first ex-
pected any new tax recommended
tions to be confined to administra-
tive matters-primarily simplifica-
tion-in all probability they will en-
brace a revenue demand only slightly
less encompassing than last Octo-
ber's $10,500,000,000 which, under
Senate and House trimming, now
has shrunk to $2,275, 100000.
This bill now is in a conference
committee and, according to Chair
man George of the Senate Finance
Committee may reach the White
House next Monday or Tuesday.
One OF the bases for the expected
Treasury requests is its dispute with
both Senate and House estimates of
the potential yield Of the pending
bill. 1t takes the view that by halt
ing the scheduled automatic dou-
bling OF the social security rates
from l to 2 per cent on employer
and employee step that would
have yielded $1,40O 100000 more
caSh-Congress cut the bills net
yield to little more than $500, 900 900.
The department probably will con-
tend that high taxes need not be
synonymous with complicated forms,
offering specific suggestions for re-
ducing the taxpayers paper work
and at the same time, suggestions
for stepping up rates.
one step toward Slmplihcation has
been taken in the current measure
by eliminating the 10 per cent
earned income credit, thereby per-
mitting single tax based without
the necessity of computing both
normal tax and surtax net incomes.
In addition to repeal of the Vic
tory tax-already considered but re-
jected-the proposals probably will
call for sharply increased and grad
uated withholding rates to replace
the recent fiat 20 per cent levy after
exemptions.

Briggs 10 Be Arraigned
In Letter Case Monday

George N. Briggs, suspended as
sistant to Secretary of the Interior
Ickes, will be arraigned in District
Court Monday on charges of forgery
using the mails to defraud and OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses
in connection with the celebrated
Hopkins letter." He posted bond OF
$4,000 yesterday.
Briggs was indicted by grand
Jury here Tuesday. The indictment
charges he wrote the letter on Au-
gust II, forging the name of Harry
Hopkins, presidential adviser. 1t was
addressed to DR.. Umphrey Lee, presi-
dent of Southern Methodist Univer-
sity, who said he never heard of 1t
until it was published in book,
zone Man-Wendell Willkie."
The book attacked Mr.. WiIlkie,
and the Hopkins letter forecast the
Republican nomination of Mr.. Will
kie for the presidency, implying the
White House and Mr.. Willkie were
in league.
Briggs made no comment yester-
day when he posted bond.

DR.. Jean Sherwood Goudy Is q
small. intent person who can handle
a horse with the skill and ease OF
a race track hostler, or coddle q
Pekingese with all the affection OF
an overweight dowager.
DR.. Goudy has the distinction OF
being the first woman veterinarian
to stand the board examinations
to practice in the District. That
was in 1912, and now she is uphold
ing the traditions Of DR.. w. P,
Collins at the Collins Veterinary
Hospital, 2130 P street NV. Dr.
Collins, noted for his work with
race horses and small animals, died
last year.
Like physicians in war-swollen
Washington, DR.. Goudy is on the
go most of the time. And while she
is away from the office, the waiting
room usually fills with women whose
pets require the doctors skilled
touch.
DR.. Goudy said being a veterina-

"you haven't got a minute to your

bred Boston bull terriers and she

Dies declared ITO me, that is proof
that the people, through their Rep
resentatives, are wholeheartedly be-

to do"
In Kansas City, Sidney Hillman,
chairman of the CIO Political Action
Committee, who is conferring with
Missouri and Kansas labor leaders,
said last night:

ords and information available to
the Department of Justice"

Civilian Food Supply
Menaced by Drought,
Dairy Official Says
By the Associated Pfess.


Dc
CHICAGO. Jan. 27.-Continued
drought in the Midwest corn belt,
as well as in other sections, and lack
of food reserves were cited yesterday
by an American Dairy Association
official as meaning trouble for the
future civilian food supply"
Manager Owen M. Richards, re-
porting to the associations Execu-
tive Committee on drought condi-
tions after a recent Western tour,
asserted that growing scarcities of
additional foods, including bread
and other wheat products, loom as
probabilities"
He said that America, in peace
time, had large food reserves, which
normally carried over from year to
year, but in wartime these reserves
have been used. This has hap
pened, he added. despite the record
food productions in 1941, AZ and '43.
Mr.. Richards said the surplus of
grains three years ago twas so great
that storage facilities of the Nation
were overfiowing. Emergency stor-
age Of grains on farms was a major
problem. Today this surplus as well
as other food surpluses are gone.
For the first time during the war
period the Nation now is dependent
upon the food production of a single
year."
Asserting that farmers in the
Western plains States "are worry
ing about dust storms" Mr.. Rich
ards told the committee that Sub
stantial percentages" Of this years
production already have been allo-
Gated to meet war needs.
This combined with prospective
reductions in production that may
be due to drought all adds up to
trouble for the future civilian food
supply" he said. THE situation
has not been helped by policies that
have dissipated supplies and throt-
tied dairy and other productions

HERE is miniature furniture all
4 carefully scaled to reproduce
actual size pieces. Any little girl
will love the sturdy five-inch-long
upholstered sofa and the lounge
chair with matching ottoman.
They are easy to make, too, and
so is the chair. It is covered with
a flower print such as little girls
dresses are made of, but it looks
like a large scale chintz on
chair only four inches high.
The dining room furniture is all
made of straight blocks but the
chairs are smartly upholstered in
bright oilcloth to simulate leather.
The bed with upholstered head
piece is especially glamorous and
the dainty dressing table has a
matching stool made of half of
spool with padded top and full
skirt. The nursery is also well fur
