WITH THE AEF
Watching For The Stork

Jerry Turk of 1112 East 74th 81
Cleveland and former reporter 1ol
the Cleveland News, told her ne
been doing some investigating ana
it appeared that the storks haon :
returned to any OF the neighborlng
villages, where they are just as I'M
portant folks as they are IN DOS
senheim.~
'Then perhaps they've just been
delayed and yet will return, she
said. "Our stork family used to
live in a nest on the chimney OF
a family which has eight children
and it became great village joke
when the father suggested he'd Ike
to have new site chosen for the
nest explaining that the next fell
into the chimney and prevented it
from drawing.
''But the blacksmith built a spe-
cial iron basket and it was put on
the church roof. The storks adopt
ed it at once and lived there for
many years. In February the chill
dren of the village fill up boxes
| with twigs and small branches and
this is placed near the church.
Father stork used this material in
repairing his home"

N. E. EDITORIALS
PLACED IN RECORD

WASHINGTON, March 3.-(P)-
Senator Clyde R. Hoey O.-N.C)
has inserted in the Congressional
Record three editorials from North
Carolina newspapers as REPRE-
senting the thought of the American
people with reference to the vital
issues now before the Congress.
Senator Hoey chose editorials
from the Charlotte Observer, Feb
ruary Is, from the Greensboro
Daily News of February 26, and
from the Wilmington Star-NeWs OF
February Is.
The editorials deal with the
"work or fight bill and strikes
in essential war industries" he
told the Senate.
The Observer editorial mention
ed Senator Maybank's D.-S.Co
idea that employer and employee
should be equally responsible in
guilt in disregarding provisions of
the work or-else" bill, so that ''all
Americans S h o u d be treated
alike"
The Greensboro paper criticized
the Senate for shifting emphasis
from employee to employer in i'm
posing penalties for violation as
the Senate version of the bill was
being considered.
The Wilmington paper mentioned
the opposition of servicemen to-
ward strikes as shown by an Incl
dent recorded in the Seattle Post
Intelligencer along with a poem
brought to the Washington publica-
ton by the buddy of Navy man
who'd been killed.
