The Sunburst
Badger SuYs

A hurried wife addressed her hus-
band: Put a $40 bill in my bag,
please, while / powder my nose.
I've got to run for the train"
On the train a pleasant lady
shared the seat with her. During a
temporary absence of the pleasant
lady the wife opened her bag to get
a lipstick. The $40 bill was not
there. Then she remembered that
the pleasant lady had had a chance
to loot. With complete cynicism she
peeked in the PLEASANT lady's bag.
Inside it was a $40 bill.
Huh" thought the wronged wife,
thought you were smart, huh?" So
she slipped it out and presently the
pleasant lady reappeared and they
parted, neither knowing the others
name. And that night her husband
slapped his pallid head.
My golly," said he, Il just
thought of something, my dear, !
forgot to put any money in your
bag this morning"
A motorist in England who had a
50-gallon tank of gas reserve when
rationing was introduced, consulted
friend as to what to do about it.
Bury it, my dear fellow" was
the reply.
Accordingly, he gave his gardener
instructions next day to dig a hole
for it in a secluded spot.
After time the gardener re-
turned
I've buried the gas" he said.

Tank"
THINK HARD, BOYS
There's a rumor that the Wash

The way it is now, they lead an
applicant into a room containing a
washing machine, a typewriter and
machine gun If she fails to rec
ognize the typewriter, they won't
hire her.
Give a man a free hand and he'll
put it all over a woman every time.

Commissioners 10 Ask
Deficiency Allotment
To Probe Parking

The commissioners have decided
to request $5,000-half the amount
necessary to recreate the District
Motor Vehicle Parking Agency-as a
deficiency appropriation to the cur
rent budget instead of waiting for
the 1947 estimates still being pre-
pared, it was disclosed today.
1t is expected hearings on the de-
ficiency request will be held at the
Capitol this week.
The total sum of $4,000 will be
used to pay for an executive and
small administrative staff for the
agency, which is primarily a plan
ming body.
The disclosure followed requests
for faster action on the District park
ing problem by Representatives Cof-
fee, Democrat, of Washington, chair
man, and Stefan, Republican, of
Nebraska, ranking minority member
of the District subcommittee of the
House Appropriations Committee.
Previously the city heads had an
nounced plans to include $4,000
request in the 1947 budget, but it was
pointed out at the Capitol that this
would delay work on the pressing
parking problem until next July,
when the final District budget for
the next fiscal year win become
effective.

Supreme Court 10 Study
Esquire Mail Privilege
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
The Supreme Court today agreed
to take a sedate look at the fuss
over Esquire magazine and its light
ly clad ladies using second class
mail.
The Justice Department asked the
court to decide whether Esquire is
entitled to the second-class mail
privilege in view of the postal law
requirement that to be carried in
that class a publication must be:
Originated and published for the
dissemination of information of a
public character, or devoted to lit
erature, the sciences, arts or some
special industry"
Former Postmaster General Frank
C. Walker ruled the magazine did
not meet the requirement. District
Court upheld him, commenting that
Mr.. Walker had found the publica-
tion "a risque type of smoking room
literature with sense of humor but
a tendency toward coarseness."
The Court of Appeals reversed
District Court. 1t told the Post Office
Department to stick to its job of
getting the mails through, and to
cease attempts ito compel accept
ance of its literary or moral stand
ards"
The Justice Department appealed
from this decision. Esquire said if
the Walker order stands, it will have
to spend an extra s624,oO0 yearly to
mail by parcel post.

Refueled on Mindanao.
Our plan was for the two Navy
flying boats to fly up from Austria
liza, alight en- Lake Lanao in Min
danao, refuel, and come the rest
of the dangerous way under cover of
night and then set down close
enough to the mine infested Rock
to enable us to load our people
aboard in hurry.
But as the days dragged on the
moose to the South tightened and
the shelling of Corregidor and the
waters around it-night and day
made me wonder if the whole plan
was not outrageous.
On April 26 I received a message
from halfway around the earth,
from a land as battered and be-
sieged as our own little world, Gen.
Sir William Shedden Dobbie, Gov
ernor of Malta, radioed:
People of Malta send their warm
greetings to the gallant defenders
of Corregidor. They have watched
with profound admiration the mag
nificent fight you have put up which
has been great inspiration to us
all. You are giving untold assist
ance to the Allied cause.
God grant you may soon reap the
fruits of victory
I replied:
"The officers and enlisted men on
Corregidor deeply appreciate the
sentiments expressed in your mes
sage. In our efforts to contribute
to the common cause of freedom for
which the Philippine and American
troops are now fighting we are in
spired and encouraged by thes his
toric stand which has been made by
the gallant defenders of Malta.
with Gods help, both our .peo-
pies shall soon join hands across the
seas in celebrating the return of
freedom to the democratic nations
of the world"
And I meant it. But l knew in
my bones that it would be a long,
long time before there would be any
joining of hands, at least our hands.
I kept these thoughts to myself
never even admitting to my staff
that I was certain no help would
come to us.

would take a turn for the better.
But I could see in the eyes of the
senior officers the thing that was
in my own heart. They knew, too.
I prayed that the Navy planes
would make it, to take out at least
some of those brave girls. Never
have women worked as CALAMITY and
as heroically as our $50 nurses, most
of them veterans of Bataan, worked
in Malinta Tunnel. Many of the
Bataan veterans among them, in
cluding wounded girls, told me that
while they were grateful for even
the little safety of Corregidor they
would have preferred to stay with
the men on Bataan and been cap
tured with them.
On April %, I think it was, the
Japs finally got part of me. On
more occasions than I can remem-
ber, I had had to jump out of my
car on tours around The Rock and
join the men in shelters during
especially heavy shellings and
bombings.
On this particular morning I had
just finished breakfast in the con-
valescent mess and was walking to-
ward an exit of the tunnel, intent
on getting some air, making walk
ing tour of a nearby battery and
intent, also on smoking one Of the
cigars Macarthur left for me,
Shell Bursts Ear Drum.
I paused for a moment to light
the cigar, while still 80 or 40 feet
short of the bulwark that protected
the end of the tunnel, when 240-
nm. shell hit the barrier with a
splintering roar. The conclusion
in that part of the tunnel was ter

out through the half smashed bull
wark to view the damage and take
my smoke. / noticed that every
sound, from voices to shelling, was
quieter than before. I thought it
was just temporary impairment
of my hearing. But as it turned out,
my left eardrum bad burst, and the
right ear since then has never been
up to its old standard.
