home: Home but have just left
home, all the home l have had for
twenty years, really.
Ella rang Mary up the next day
and asked, "Are you really consid-
ering a pied-a-tsrys in the eoun-
try"
II hadn't till last night when
Judith told Of your plans"
Come to tea" invited Ella, "and
we'll talk it over"
So Mary went TO tea where she,
Ella, and Eva talked it over. The
cottage was more than adequate:
A big living room with q dining
table corner. Fireplace, . small
compact kitchen, and three good
sized bedrooms-which would take
care Of Mary, Matthew, and guests
two master baths, a double room,
q tiny one for q maid, and q bath.

ut sounds heavenly. Are you
sure you'd want me? OF course. we
would promise to keep out Of your

Eva smiled. "You couldn't ret in
anyone's hair. / remember sum-

Ella said briskly, Don't be silly.
We'd love it. After all, we're very
old friends, and we understand one
another. We can see as much or "A

You'll have the use Of the pool and

Mary said, you're more than

Judith's heart jumped and sank
again.
In the apartment, Lynn Nor

asking, whats the idea about tax

She parried with, Matthew,

"But you are really thinking Of

ayes, he works 50 hard. he needs

"But," Lynn persisted, ARE you
sure you have no other motive?"
Mary looked at him, her gray
eyes disturbed.
What other motive could have,
possibly!7 she inquired.
Aren't you thinking, under
meath, that it would do no harm to
throw Matthew with Judy! She's
extra-attractive and I'll bet you q

for Irene and had not come back to
New York until soma weeks later.
She managed to be very busy.
She had refused Jimmy Tread
ways offer Of marriage but he was
not taking it as . final answer.
Aunt Ella was rather annoyed with
her. Treadway was . very good
catch and, she warned, you aren't
getting any younger, my girl"
"Tired Of met" Judith had In
quired.
Don't be silly. As far ~ I am
concerned I hope you dry up and

Oh, but she wasn't. Judith was

still she was not happy but was

Maritime Board Head Appeals
For More Shipyard Workers

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-In an
urgent appeal for additional shipyard
workers - both men and women -
Vice Admiral Emory S. Land, chair
man of the U. S. Maritime Commits
sion and War Shipping Administrator
said:
"There is an imperative need of
$4,000 additional shipyard workers to
meet the ship construction require
ments Of the Joint Chiefs of Staff for
European and Far Eastern operations.
ITO meet these requirements our
shipyards must produce within the
next IL months at least every ship at
present scheduled for delivery by
July 1, 1945. This cannot be accom-
plished unless the shipyards are fully
manned.
"We must replace the workers who
have left the shipyards for other jobs
and we must maintain output at the
maximum.
"The War Manpower Commission
is cooperating with the Maritime
Commission in striving to obtain thu
needed men, SO that when our military
operations are stepped up, the neces.
sary ships will be available to LAND
needed supplies in order to carry OF
our further operations against thu

Archbishop Noted AS Labor
Arbiter Dies In Rome

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) Ed
ward Joseph Hanna, retired Arch
bishop of San Francisco, nationally
known in the United States as labor
arbitrator and for other activities,
died in Rome July 10 at the age Of SO.
He had been in bad health and had
not left his villa for more than year.
His leadership in the Americaniza-
tion of immigrants and his reputation
as fair arbitrator of labor disputes
contributed to making Archbishop
Hanna national figure.
Archbishop Hanna was born in
Rochester, N. Y, after serving in
various posts in the east, including
that of Professor Of Theology at st.
Bernard's Seminary in Buffalo, he was
made Bishop Coadjutor of the San
Francisco diocese, in 1907. In 1912 he
was raised to Auxiliary Bishop, and
in 1915 to Archbishop of San Fran
cisco on the death Of Archbishop Rior-
dan.
After his appointment to the State
immigration and Housing Commits
sion in 1913 by United States Senator
Hiram w. johnson, then Governor of
California, Archbishop Hanna played
leading role in carrying out an am
bilious program of reform in labor
camps.
He was frequently called to aid ir
the settlement of labor disputes.
In June, 1884, in the early days OF
the New Deal, President Roosevelt
alarmed by the growing seriousness

Minister Warns Against
War Hate-MOngers

New York City (ILNS).-Preach-
ing at Calvary Baptist Church, the
Rev. DIR. William Ward Aver warned
against war hate-mongers and urged
preservation of the independence OF
Europe's small nations.
Just as the law of retribution that
operates in the moral universe has
brought the bombing of Germany
after it bombed English cities and the
Continent, so will the United States
be forsaken by friends in the hour OF
need if we desert the little nations OF
Europe and allow them to be swallow
ed by the gigantic nations, DR.. Aver
declared.
"There is vicious cycle" he said.
eve in America must learn that II
we measure out good, good will re-
turn, and if evil will return.
"Let the hate-mongers be warned
that hate is a two-way street and
hates virus is an alternating current.
If, after the war, we deal brutally
with out enemies, as many govern
mentally subsidized writer's are ven
omously recommending today, they
had better be warned their brutality
will spawn a little Of antagonisms
which will inevitably develop into fu-
ture wars and cause the death of hun
| dreds of thousands of men that are
now the bright-faced children of our
homes"

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

ondary schools, universities and tech
nical schools. Under the supervision
of the governors of the various pre-
lectures the plan will be carried out
Systematically.
"The program calls for the chill
dren's services for land improvement,
increased food production, cleaning of
machinery, blacksmithing, making of
wooden boxes, care of military cloth
ing, construction of defense works,
shipbuilding, etc. The pupils thus
mobilized will number we'll over a
million"
A revealing light on the difference
between the attitude taken by French
employers and organized workers to-
ward the Nazi rulers is given by the
American Federation in Labor High
lights"
"The French Committee of National
Liberation" the Federationist says,
"has authorized the French trade
union movement to conduct purges in
the Vichy-dominated unions without
state interference. This power has
been given to the labor movement, it
is explained, because trade unionists
have been playing leading roles in
the resistance movement.
"For the employer organizations
however, the Committee of National
Liberation has appointed purge COM
missioner; the reason for this diff
ferentiation, as supplied by Adrien
Tixier, the committees labor minister:
No employers organizations have
taken part in the resistance move
ment, and the majority of employers
in large undertakings betrayed the
nation"

HAMILTON ONLY CITY?

Yes, that Wilson boy has yanked
dozens of telephones out of the hand
book establishments down there in
Cincinnati. This has happened hum
dred times before and likewise over
on the other side of the Ohio, New

that amuses us is that we are occa-
sionally reminded that Hamilton is
the only city in the state where gam
bling exists.
