Extinct Fish Found Alive;
Exuded 20 Gallons of Oil

A live fish, belonging to the
Coelacanth group which was
thought to have been extinct for
100000 years, was brought to
the surface from a depth of 240
feet by trawler off the coast of
South Africa in December, 1888,
says Golfers.
During the three months that it
was kept in London laboratory
awaiting Identification, this 5-foot,
127-pound ''fossil'' exuded 20 gal
Ions of oil through it's scales.

derson's unmagic wand will be only
as long as Mr.. Truman decides when
Anderson tries to do something from
now on.
That Anderson cannot do
much is the common conclusion
of intimates of the problem.
When the supply and distribu-
ton system is once broken
down, as ours has been, long and
powerful mending is required to
get it going again.
Anderson is working not only in
a delicate price-help-machinery con-
dition, but to restore a system dis
rupted by years of abusive regula-
tons. That is only half of it. The
food system is not only war weary,
and heavily laden with disruptive
regulation; it is now dominated ex-
tensively by the black market, an
invisible but powerful force.
For example, the corn-hog ratio
has been fixed high enough now by
Washington to stimulate pork pro-
duction. But that result has not fol-
lowed. Pig production prospects are
definitely down despite Washington
pulling of the main spring which
was supposed to send them up.
These considerations furnish only
a fast glance at how high the cards
are stacked against Mr.. Anderson.
CROP OUTLOOK MIXED
This is all anyone of authority
really hopes for, although the pub
icity mills are grinding out the
daily prospects that everything is
going to become better and better.
Crop prospects are mixed. The
wheat outlook is splendid, corn

THE OLD DAYS

The American Transit association
announces that the trolley car is far
from dead There are 118 electric
car companies in the country. They
carry so per cent of all riders in
urban areas. Thirteen billion fares
were carried last year. This cheers
us up. Tender memories of our boy
hood included those of the trolley
car. The Sunday ride on an open
trolley to Savin Rock, Momauguin
or Lighthouse Point was pretty ex-
citing stuff. The whole town seemed
to turn out for that kind of a trip
on Sunday, and in the afternoon
passengers were clinging to every
inch of the running boards.
-
The fight to get seat when the
rush set in to get home was some
thing. Pop used to go up around
the bend, hop aboard the car then
and grab couple of seats which
he would struggle to hold until MON
and the kids could Chamber on. The
open car has pretty well disap-
peared. New York, strangely
enough, still operate some. They
had it all over the closed car or
bus for GOODNESS, comfort and fun.

THE PRIVATE PAPERS
OF PRIVATE PURKEY

Dear Ed.-Well, the ban on me
fraternizing with them Kraut frau
leans is lifted and it may be neces-
sary for. the brasshats to slap the
rule on again to keep up interest in
them. Them danes don't look half
so good now that there is no law
against them.
That word fraternizing was hot
one to drag in when the four letter
word meek would of done. 1 had
to live % years, get in global war
and go all through Africa, Italy,
France and parts of Germany to find
out that when I am delivering a
sales talk on myself to a doll / am
guilty of differentiation in the first
Degree"
Well, anyhow, it was tough to win
war and be told you had lost the
pecking privileges. Moonlight is
moonlight in all languages and in
war or peace. Imagine winning
global shindig and getting told that
nothing goes with it that can roll
its eyes or give with baby talk!
am all for busting up the Kraut
general staff, wiping out the Nazis
and making a new Germany, but /
still stand for romance, lend lease
and never did think that in order to
make Germany a demockracy we
have got to keep G.I.s from looking
up telephone numbers.
-
So when the ban on fraternizing
was lifted it was good news even If
nobody had not paid no attention to
it. Interest has fell off badly since
it's become okay to 60 for them
frauleans. They do not look too good
except when they are hard to go get.
When there is no ceiling on them
they lose glammer. They toe in,
they amt much on shapes and them
German dressmakers should be in
Guided among the war criminals.
=
think the hairdressers should be
put on the war crimes list also.
The frauleans made it tough for
the G.I.s all during the fraterniza-
ton ban by making most of the ad-
vances. They was for freedom of
the squeeze from the start and seen
lots of times when they put out pick
cts in front of our barracks and
carried signs which read "These
G.I.s Unfair to German Girls"
Of coarse, it was all hooey and the
ban never had no chance. Love
laughs at loci;srniths and it busts
buttons off it's vest giggling at brass
hats. Take it from me lot of G.I.s
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1945-08-09

doubtful. So the publicity mills are
playing the wheat prospects, ig-
noring corn. Yet If you will look
into the weekly farm weather bulle-
tins, you will find much corn has
not been planted at this late date,
due to weather. Much has rotted
and been replanted.
Vegetables. outside the Florida
area, are hopeful. Apples were
ruined by March warmth and cold,
which factor also hurt the citrus
fruits seriously.
Eggs are getting shorter and
shorter. The increased civilian
ALLEGATIONS Of poultry for six
border states will not solve the
poultry situation for them, or
anyone. Poultry deficiencies are
really due to the meat shortage,
and will continue as long as it
does.
The better June marketing figures
for beef will not ease the meat stu
alton, as the army is still taking so
to so per cent of all meat available
for interstate commerce. Beef, how
ever, will be somewhat more easily
available, due to better local slaugh-
tering arrangements in some areas.
Now as to wheat, the most favor
able produce, one of Anderson's first
acts was to keep acreage requests
to farmers for 1916 abost the same
as now. Specifically this may ap-
pear doubtful move, especially as
the government simultaneously an
nounced it expected to increase ship
ments to Europe.
The inner truth Of the matter
is not much can be shipped to
Europe, because ships are not
available. Most bottoms already
have gone to the Pacific to sup
ply our armies. Secondly, we
have a carry-over of $50 million
bushels of wheat.
Added to our expected production
of 1,O85 million bushels, this will
give us more than 1,400 million
bushels at the end of this crop year,
and we need normally at home only
$50 million bushels. So Anderson has
played wheat reasonably safe.
The increase in rye acreage for
1916 anticipates more for whisky
and rye bread, the outlook for these
two minor matters Of living being
exceptionally bright.
AS for corn (meaning hogs and to
some extent cattle), no one will
know much what we will have be-
fore fall and next years acreage on
that will be announced after sur
vey of the marketing situation then.
No new farm machinery Except
ing harvesters) will be available un-
til fall, and the greatest need is for
planters and cultivators. The dis
charge plans of the army will not
be sufficient to solve the farm labor
problem this year.
Frankly, would not want Mr.. An
derson's job.
