+ The dance that was to have been
given by the Richland basketball
league on Friday has been post
poned because of a conflict in
dates, it was announced. The
appearance of Ted Weems' orches-
ira in a nearby city on the same
evening proved too tough compe-
tition even for the fast-stepping
quints in the league, SO it was
decided to plan another date for
their dance, league chairman, D.

Irish in District Mark
|1,483d Anniversary
OF ST. Patrick Death

The wearing Of the green" was
the theme today of District Irish
men commemorating the 1.483d an
nlVersary OF the death of st. Pat
rick, patron saint of Ireland, whose
legendary deeds have been a beacon
light to his countrymen through the
years.
The man who drove the snakes
from Ireland and who played a
major role in establishing Christi
anlty there is to be honored in two
ways probably most pleasing to his
splrit-in prayer and in song.
The church named after him. st.
Patrick's Parish, at Tenth and G
streets NV, celebrated its 150th
anniversary at 1890 am. TODAY
with a solemn pontifical mass.
Tonight the Ancient Order of Hi

Patrick, and District Post II, Irish
War Veterans, will be among those
organizations paying tribute to the
patron saint. @,

Senator McCarran, Democrat. of

Order Of Hibernians' dinner dance
at 7 o'clock tonight at the Nav
flower Hotel. The same hotel will
be the scene of dinner and play
to be given tonight by the Friendly
Sons of st. Patrick.
Wreath-laying ceremonies were
held by District Post II, Irish War
veterans, at the statue of Commo-
dore John Barry, in Franklin Park.
TINS morning. Comdr. George L.
Cassidy and Adj. A. P. Gill led the
observance.
Representative Sullivan, Democrat,
OF Nevada, speaking at the cere-
mony, paid tribute to the Irish-born
American patriot who he called "the
ranking commodore and father of
the United States Navy under the
Constitution"
Commodore Barry, a close friend
OF George Washington, was born in
County Wexford, Ireland, in 1745
and died at his estate near Phila-
delphia in 1903 after 25 years of
service in the American Navy.
Career is Traced.
Representative Sullivan traced the
commodore's naval career, which in
cluded command of the original
Lexington, "the first vessel of the
American Navy to whom the flag of
an enemy nation was struck in
battle"
Stressing that the commodore
was no appeaser," Mr.. Sullivan said
he bitterly resented the action of
the Government in 1895 when it paid
a $1,000,00 tribute to the Bey of
Algiers, disgrace which was wiped
out 20 years later by one of "Barry's
boys" Stephen Decatur.
1T is to be wondered Mr.. Sui
livan said, why with the example
of John Barry before them the
American people ever fell into the
error of appeasement or disarma-
ment. The traditions of Barry in
spire and govern our Navy TO-DAY to
have peace even if we have to fight
for it."

u. ). Falls Far Short
In Steps for Youth,
Miss Lenroot Says
High School Enrolment
DwindIes IA Pct, She
Tells Session Here

Reporting progress in meeting the
needs of Americas young people,
Miss Katharine F. Lenroot, Chill
dren's Bureau chief, declared today
the country still is falling short of
its obligations to youth.
Miss Lenroot, addressing more
than 100 members of the Children's
Bureau Commission on Children in
Wartime at the opening of a two
day session at the Washington Ho-
tel, said indications of shortcomings
In meeting the needs of youth can
be found in the fact that high school
enrolment is down IA per cent.
She also said three times as MANY
boys and girls are working now as
in 1910 and cited 81 per cent in
crease over 1912 in the number of
Juvenile delinquency cases reported
to the Children's Bureau by 145
courts in 1943.
Programs Fail to Meet Need,
Miss Lenroot also pointed out that
employment practices have encour-
aged mothers of young children to
enter the labor market, despite eff
1orts OF the War Manpower Com
mission to prevent it. Community
programs for the care of children of
working mothers, she added, are
railing far short of the need, both
as to quantity and quality"
Asserting that the readiustment
OF civilian youth in the industrial
rehabilitation at the close of the
war will be as difficult as that of
veterans, Miss Lenroot said young
people must be provided with a posi-
tive program to insure them against
ldleneSs and Illustration.
Postwar programs, she said, must
include extension of educational.
employment and recreational oppor-
tunities for youth; development of
more adequate health programs for
school and employed youth and the
organization of social security, pub
lie assistance and family and child
welfare services to deal with eco
nonic or social need.
Urges American Leadership.
Leonard w. Mayo, chairman of the
commission, reported that problems
studied during the last year dealt
with the large number of women in
industry; the increasing problem of
child labor, the migration of some
100000 persons since Pearl Harbor.
the rise of juvenile delinquency and
health and recreational needs of
young people.
The country is not fully Child
conscious" he said. THE Congress
of the United States and the State
Legislatures must continue to hear
the needs of all children.
America must take the leader
ship in meeting the problems of
youth If we are to bear even mini
mum of the responsibility"
Ten boys and girls who have
worked with adults on youth prob
lens were to speak at the afternoon
session. They were to meet Presi-
dent Roosevelt at the White House
before their appearance

far as the top turret where he
passed out the first time.
The left waist gunner revived him
with shot of oxygen that started
him on his way again. But he
passed out once more in the radio
room before he could get his hands
on the breather bottle.
Share Oxygen Bottle.
Meanwhile. the left waist gunner
was manning both guns. The tur-
ret had been hit and the glass
broken so that the turret gunner
could not get oxygen either. He
crawled to the radio room and
Sergt. Burke had to share the bottle
with him. Other members of the
crew were lying on the floor, breath
ing slowly in order to use as little
oxygen as possible so that the ship
could stay in the formation. All
were very faint and dizzy.
The pilot decided it would be
impossible to stay with the forma-
ton any longer and descended to
$4,000 feet. AS soon as he did so,
he left himself wide open to attack
by the enemy fighters. Two Messer-
schmitts, expecting easy prey, dove
at the Fortress. They probably
would have shot it down had not
two American fighters suddenly ap-
peared and the German fighters
took to their heels.
At $4,000 feet the crew began to
get plenty of oxygen, but they were
in hailstorm of flax. The heating
system was hit and the cold be-
came almost unendurable. Gas was
getting low as the ship had been
forced off its course by flax, fighters
and change in wind direction.
The English Channel came into
sight just in time to prevent
forced landing in Europe.

his thrilling dav in tho oir

Bloom, Denying PACT
On Gold, Accuses
COP Of Politics.

A Republicans charge on the
House floor that the Treasury is
ignoring Congress in discussing post
war monetary problems, brought a
Democratic charge of politics" yes
terday from Representative Bloom,
Democrat, of New York.
The argument was touched off bv
Representative Dewey, Republican
OF Illinois, who said he had read a
newspaper story that an early agree
ment among Russian, British, Amer
lean and Canadian monetary experts
on multibillion-dollar, gold based
fund to stabilize postwar foreign
exchange was believed imminent.
Congress has been disturbed bv
Learning indirectly Of agreements
being made by the Chief Executive
and executive departments of the
Government with the governments
OF the United Nations, which NAV
have the effect of committing the
citizens of the United States to vast
expenditures or responsibilities
which they may not be inclined to
accept" Mr.. Dewey said, adding:
Every one should know that,
particularly in matters of finance
and the appropriating of the peo-
pies money, sole authority rests in
the Congress"
Mr.. Bloom said Mr.. Dewey's state
ments were completely without
foundation and must have been
mace for political purposes.
He said Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau informed him that "ex-
pioratory discussions among the
technlclans Of the various govern
ments still are in progress"
No governments, including our
own, have made any commitment"
