The Rotary countered with mans
fur coat.
AT the fire station more than

Trade Pacts Stir
Accusations in
Public HEARINGS

WASHINGTON, April %. (UP)
Democratic and Republican men,
bers of the house ways and means
committee batted charges back and
forth at a hearine on reciprocal
trade legislation
Democrats accused Republicans OF
delay. Republicans accused Demo-
Gratis of trying to rush things.
The squabhle broke out as secre-
tary of agriculture Claude R. Wick
ard returned for further question
ing on legislation to renew the re-
ciprocal trade agreements act. The
bill would authorize the administra-
ton to cut tariff rates so per cent
below present levels.
! Rep. John D. Dingell, CD, Mich
igan, objecting to lengthy Replubli-
can questioning, demanded that
the committee reach an understand
ing on the length of the hearings.
IF we don't set some kind Of
limit on this repetitious speechmak-
ing," he said, I'VE are going to be

The trade agreements act expires

Committee Chairman Robert L.
Doughton, CD, North Carolina
tried to keep the quarrel private. He
asked Dingell to withhold his pro-
posal for discussion in a closed ses-
sion.
Republican anger was given pub
lie expression, however, when Rep.
Bertrand w. Gearhart, tRD, Cali
fornia accused the Democrats of re-
pudiating the Wilsonian doctrine

at"
Rep. Richard Simpson, (RD Penn
sylvania had asked Wickard to sup
ply detailed information on the ne
gotiation of trade agreements with
the United Kingdom.
Rep. A. Wills Robertson, CD, Vir-
ginia protested that if the commit
tee tried to make the state depart
men disclose negotiation details it
might prejudice future discussions
with other countries.
Gearhart objected that the state
department could use such an ar
gument "as an excuse to withhold
anything we want"
Simpson said he was only trying
to get information on what items
further tariff reductions might be
contemplated.

AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY.
christian Science Monitor)

(ChrStlan Science Monltor)
Once upon time there was Count
and Countess, who owned vast estate
in country belonging to a race of mas
ter men. Their armies had overrun and
plundered the neighboring countries, and
had brought back a multitude of unfor-
tunate folk who were made slaves. The
Count and Countess took a thousand of
these slaves and forced them to work on
their lands, quartering them in dirty
barns, and giving them only enough to
eat to enable them to keep working. Any
one attempting to get milk for his chill
dren or resist the orders of the tyrant
overseers was beaten or imprisoned.
One day soldiers from across the seas
marched into the town and freed the
victims. Then the tables were turned on
the wicked rulers. The erstwhile slaves
took over the CASTLE and helped them
selves to the fruits of their labors. For
the first time in five years they ate milk
and eggs and meat. In fact, they ate
STEAKS three times day, and slept in
soft beds instead of stables. And now
it was the overseerS who were frightened
and ran for their lives.
This is not fairy tale. 1t is a true
story of Poles, Czechs and Russians freed
by the Americans advancing into Ger
many. But this and other news stories
with fairy tale endings promise to outdo
the Grimm Brothers and on their own
ground too

BY ERNIE PYLE

OKINAWA-CBY NAVY RADIO
Back nearly two years ago when
I was with Oklahoma's 45th Divis-
ion in Sicily and later in italy, I
learned they had number of Naya-
jo Indians in communications.
When secret orders had to be CIV
en- over the phone these boys gave
them to one another in Navajo.
Practically nobody in the world un-
derstands Navajo except another
Navajo.
Well, my regiment of first division
marines has the same thing. There
are about eight Indians who do this
special work. They are good mar
ines and very proud of being so.
TWO BROTHERS
There are two brothers among
them, both named Joe. Their last
names are the ones that are differ
ent. I guess that's a Navajo Gus
tc.n, though I never knew of it be-
fore.
One brother, Pfc. Joe Gatewood,
went to the Indian school In Al
buQuerque. In fact our house is on
the very same street, and Joe said
it sure was good to see somebody
from home.
| Joe's brother is Joe Kellwood who
He is "a and has five choldren back
home whom he would like to see.
He was wounded several months ago
and got the Purple Heart.
Joe's brbother is Joe KellWood who
has also been out here three years.
A couple of the others are Pfc. Alex
Williams of Winslow, Arizona and
Pvt Oscar Carroll of Fort Defiance,
Arizona, which is the capital of the
Navajo reservation Most of the
boys are from around Fort Defiance
and used to work for the Indian
Bureau.
KNEW OF TOUGH TIMES
The Ind:an boys Knew before we
got to Okinawa that the invasion
landing wasn't going to be very
tough. They were the only ones in
the convoy who did know it. For
one thing they saw signs and for
another they used their own in
i fluence.
Before the convoy left the far
south tropical island where the Nav
ajos had been training since the
last campaign. the boys put on a
ceremonial dance.
The Red Cross furnished some COL
ored cloth and paint to stain their
faces. They made up the rest of their
Indian costumes from chicken feath-
ers, sea shells, cocoanuts, empty cans
and rifle cartridges.
Then they did their own native
ceremonial chants and dances out
there under the tropical palm trees
with several thousand marines as
a grave audience.
In their chant they asked the
great gods in the sky to sap the JAP
anese of their strength for this
blitz. They put the finger of weak
ness on the Japs. And then they
ended their ceremonial chant by
singing the marine corps song in
Navajo.
! I asked Joe Gatewood if they
really felt their dance had some
thing to do with the ease of our
landing and he said the boys did be-
lieve SO and were very serious about

Juvenile Court
Hits at Cost
OF Delinquency

Untangling domestic and financial
snarls of a family which cost I'M
perial county and California $3546 in
caring for delinquent children since
1888, occupied Judge Vaughn N.
Thompson of Imperial county jul
yenile court and the probation de-
partment this week
Better environment for the chill
dien and relief from the public fl
nancial burden are sought by au-
thorities.
COSTS INVALUED
Since 1898, Judge Thompson's
records show, Imperial county has
spent $1182 and the state s2364 to
pay charges of keeping first one and
then another of the family's chill
dren in institutions where they were
sent from time to time because of
delinquencies of various kinds. The
father of the four, Judge Thompson,
said is in San Quentin penitentiary
for committing morals offense.
Developments in the case of this
family showed that the mother di-
vorced the father of the four chill
| dren after he was sent to the peni-
tentiary," Judge Thompson said,
THE mother has another family
without benefit of clergy, possibly
because the so-called husband did
lot want to assume the financial re-
sponsibility of the prisoners chill
dren."
BENCH WARRANT
The so-called husband and the
mother ignored a summons to ap-
pear in court SO were taken in ON
bench warrants. Judge Thompson
ordered them to be married in Cali
| fornia so a medical certificate would
be mandatory.
Trouble with one of the four chill
dren, a boy, began when he was
around six years of age. He was
dropped from BraWley school be-
cause of his "unsocial activities" and
because of stealing and perversion,
records in the case show. The boy
escaped from the county juvenile
home. Later he was sent to a state
school and later paroled from the
institution. The girl also was sent
to a state school.
I'VE must do something to
straighten out such tangled rela-
tions," Judge Thompson said, be
fore they result in more potentially
delinquent children and a greater
financial burden on the state and
county. For that reason I ordered
the so-called husband to make $40
available every month to pay for
keeping the children in institutions
at this time. He earns enough to
afford it. The children were placed
under the general supervision of the
probation department of the state
Youth Authority"

NO SUBSIDY WANTED
clos Angeles Times)

(LOS Angeles llIHeS)
The spectacle of an industry which
prefers to stand on its own feet rather
than on the corns of the taxpayers is
refreshing one in these days. Hence the
declaration of aircraft manufacturers
headed by Donald Douglas that no sub
sidy is wanted to keep airplane plants
going after the war is to be applauded
in the hope that the example will be
widely followed.
The aircraft makers ask Congress to
make up its mind on aircraft policy, SO
they will know what to figure on in the
way of government business. They pre-
fer to take care of the rest. This is
reasonable request and one that should
handicapped by that very fact.

the investors, the management and the

TENNEY'S SUBVERSIVE BILL

SACRAMENTO, April %. fUP)-
The senate education committee has
recommended passage of a bill by
Sen. Jack Tenney, tR), Los Angeles
prohibiting so-called "subversive"
elements from using public school
buildings for meetings.
The Tenney committee on un-
American activities attacked the

Communist political association and
the Japanese-Americans as Sub
versiye forces" in a recent report to
the state legislature.
Tenney struck from the bill a
section defining subyersive elements
as all persons or organizations who
