DECISION BENEFITS
 l2,OOO N. E. WORKERS

Boston, Nov. p - U.P0 - Ap- roximately 12.000 New England workers past the age of 65 will bene- fit from the Social Security Boards decision to re-calculate old-age and survivors insurance benefits, Region al Director John F. Hardy estimated today.
 This action is intended to take into account the fact that many workers past the age of 65, who had retired and drawn benefits, have gone back to work since the country started its preparation for war;" said Hardy. Originally, these workers by filing a claim set their benefits so tht they could not be moved up or down.
 But they returned to work unex- pectedly," he added. "and generally have received higher wages than before. The board has therefore an- nounced that, in order to meet the intent of the law, their benefits may be recomputed in order to credit to- wards monthly retirement benefits the wages they received after they had once filed 8 claim"

today was a single shattered win- dow-an ordinary glass put in at the beginning of the war when the cathedral's famous windows were removed for Safe-keeping.
 With group of doughboys, I in- Spected the cathedral under the guidance of the caretaker. we'll call him Joseph, because that's 8 good name and he proved himself a good man today.
 There are many inside the fallen fortress city who showed clearly that they could take their libera- tion or leave it. They almost scowled as they watched American soldiers advancing through their streets.
 But not this tall, gaunt man who has spent most of his life guarding the cathedral of Metz with its won derful steeple and its picturesque gargoyles.
 He unlocked the great doors and led us up into the tower, where we could see the countryside for miles and spot tiny pockets where die- hard Nazis still were holding out against the buisness-like Doughboys who were developing their ability to kill with automatic weapons to an almost methodical perfection.
 Joseph took us inside the great church and let us see for ourselves that the building was intact. We turned to leave, because it was get ting dark and there still were many Snipers hidden in the city.
 But he called us back. "No," he said, you haven't seen it yet. wait" :"
 He pulled me by the arm and brought us down into deep cellar far beneath the cathedral. There, packed side by side in wooden cases lay the famous stained glass win dows of St, Stephens, exactly as the French left them when they were stored away in 1889.
 The caretaker pulled up the boards from one case and showed us the window. It contained a DOT trait of one of the cathedral'S earli- est bishops. He held it out for all of our party to see, and one jittery Doughboy, packing tommy-gun under one arm, got nervous.
 Put it back now" he told the old man. You might drop it. I sure would feel bad if something happened to that"
 So Joseph put the glass back in its case.
 You are the first to see this since 1939," he said. Sometimes those Boches wanted to see, but I put them off. I always said: we will look some other time, perhaps tomorrow

ALL PHONES, ANYWAY

Chicago, (UP)-Harold J. Harri- son, former member of the Navy's Seabees, has told of an enterprising racket of some fighting men in the South Pacific who sought to supply the demand of friends and rela- tives in the States for souvenir Jap anese flags. The men, he said, cov- cred 8 coffee tin with heavy red paint and pressed it down on par achute cloth. When 1t soaked through, 1t was the Rising Sun flag and was then embellished with scribbling to represent Japanese writing. The selling price was $50 per flag.

NOTES OF A NEWSPAPERTAN

NOTES OF A NEWSPAPERMAN
 The N. Y. Times for Nov. 14th ran a wireless report from the Ameri- can Third Army front in France that the Germans are pounding American troops with "a new news paper" (among other things, of course), in wasted effort to make our. men 'fhomesick" :. |. This German newspaper" is called Lightning News and contains photos, cartoons and pieces from Time, Stars and Stripes and Wall ter Winchell's column.
 The principal object" says the correspondent, appears to- be to develop mass homesickness among the troops" and on the subject of homeSickneSs concludes: 'The doughboy knows what he is fighting for: to stick his nose into European affairs-for other people who sit home snug and safe So that the (American) front-line soldiers will not become too Respondent af- ter reading all this, the German editors leveled off bit witfs snatches of humor about WACs picked up from Stars and Stripes, also piece from Winchell about a WAC who failed to salute group of second lieutenants and explained Would you have saluted ifb they called you Toots?"
 The Times concludes: "The edi- tor, probably a former vaudevillian, obviously believes in leaving them laughing"
 AS does this former vaudevillian who thinks the big news in the story is that any Nazi knows a good quip when he reads it.

The joke sure was on us. Sixty per cent casualties and coffee rationing takes the top top line!"
 Sgt. Alan Sands just read a best seller of several years ago, named ''Reveille in Washington" and laughed at this part: The author (writing about Washington during the Civil War) described it thus: ''The city soon looked deserted. Shops had shuttered windows, houses were vacant. Many offices and all places of amusement were closed. Silence had fallen on the big hotels"
 The recent hOkum in the cam paign that "all Federal workers and their families would vote for Roose- velt,s reelection" has been de- bunked by the following returns Federal workers (most of them) dwell in and near Washington. Here's how Maryland and Virginia areas voted: Dewey carried adjoin- ing Montgomery County by nearly 5000 votes. In Prince Georges County it was nearly Stephen with Dewey getting 12,674 and FDR 12,916 Dewey swept Arlington County by HOO votes Dewey took Fairfax County by 800, and in Alexandria Roosevelt won by 1000.
 In total, Dewey won these areas by over 5000.

 Replied Ambrose cordially: How do you spell that, please?"
 At a Sinatra broadcast, before the show went on, it was decided to clear the room of visitors, etc. Man nie Sachs, manager for Sinatra, decided to go out for some fresh ozone. And then couldn't get back. I'm Sinatra's manager" he screamed.
