Just a month after final victory
over Germany, General Omar N.
Bradley-Missouri's greatest SOL
der and leader of the Twelfth
Army Group that helped smash
the Nazis returned to his native
Randolph country to tumultuous
homecoming celebration in which
he asked Americans to continue
their about war efforts until final
victory.

ever length of time it takes" the
general said. There may be a
tendency to let down since we've
knocked out two Of our enemies.
This must not be- We must fight
on and end this war so that it
can't happen again"
General Bradley, who was born
in nearby Clark, and grew up
here, told of some of the instru-
ments of destruction developed in
this war, and said:
Let me assure you the next war
would be far more horrible nan
this one. We saw just taste of
this at the conclusion of this war
in pilotless planes, rockets and

A DOGS LIFE
Don't be perturbed II someone
suggests treating you like a dog,
because the chances are you will
be treated very well indeed. Some
dogs today receive care that many
humans do not. Many are the medi-
cal services now available to our
canine friends.
For instance, veterinarians ev-
erywhere are using X-ray ma
chimes. These machines, develop
ed to aid man in diagnosing his
ailments, are almost indispensable
in helping to set dog fractures,
which have become more common
since the increase in automobile
traffic.
Dental services are also available
to our pets. The dog has his teeth
cleaned, cavities filled when neces-
sary and an offending molar ex-
tracted in the latest manner Under
an anesthetic of novocaine or gas.

today she never would sing in Nor
way again and, in fact, would like

Flagstad is unpopular in Norway.
She is accused of having sung in
Berlin during the war, charge
which she fatty denies. She is
berated for not singing in Norway.
Most of ALL Norwegians say she
went contrary to their wishes in

when they believed she could have
helped the country more by sing
ing in Allied countries.

DOG HITCH HIKES $4,000 MILES

DUG HlICH H1hES 1S,VVU MILES
A little brown dog was the princi-
pal character in mystery re-
Gently. The mystery was who sent
him from Sydney, Australia to
Jersey City, New Jersey, all the
way by air? Or rather who made
the dog hitch hike those $4,000
miles? Hitch hike he did and all
by himself.
Besides an address in Jersey
City the following was attached to
the animals collar. am just a
little pup who can't talk but I am
trying to get to my mistress. Don't
stop me now. A Red Cross worker
in Newark will take me to my
house" The dog was put aboard a
plane by an unidentified officer in
Australia and was transported
from one base to another until he
finally reached Newark. Friendly
airplane crews fed the pup and it
was only a matter of a few days
from the time he left Australia
until he reached his new home in
New Jersey.
To this day the name or the iden-
tity of the sender has been mys-
terry. No members of the pup S
present owners family, or as far
as they know no friends of theirs,
have been in Australia. The
pup was a welcomed surprise gift
and arrived in the best of health
and seems pleased with his new
surroundings $4,000 miles from his
former home.

FLEA TROUBLE

| l.
Many dogs are already host to
their usual summer visitors, fleas.
These parasites are one of the chief
carriers of tape worm. A flea feeds
on tape worm eggs-the dog swal-
lows the flea and thus the tape
worm enters the dogs system. The
average life of a flea is about two
months, although some may live a
wear or two. A flea must feed on
the blood of an animal. If an amin
al is not around on which the flea
can establish a home soon after
Matching, it will die of starvation.
Derris root, pine oil disinfect-
ant and retenone may be used to
kill fleas. Good results are also
obtained by any of the excellent
preparations on the market, many
of which have one or more of the
aforementioned as basic ingre-
dients.
ONE WAY TO WALK A DOG
Recently l heard about woman
in New York who has solved the
problem of late airing for her dog.
She goes to the elevator with him
and rings the bell. When the car
stops, the dog gets in and descends
to the lobby of the building, as his
mistress returns to her rooms. Out
goes the dog, trotting leisurely a.
round the block. Returning via the
elevator, he barks at the apart
ment door and is admitted.

Question: Interested to know how
fast a racing Greyhound runs. Can
you tell me?-R. P.
Answer: On March 7, 1885 at
Miami, Florida, dog won mile
and eighth race in the running time
of one minute and forty eight sec
onds. That means he ran at the
rate of about 374 miles per hour.
Question: How often should a
grown dog be treated for worms?

MEAT SITUATION
TO EASE IN FALL

WASHINGTON, June 9.--U.P)-N.
E. Dodd, head Of the Agricultural
Adjustment Agency, predicted to-
night that civilians will get more
meat next fall.
Just returned from two-Week
survey of the Middle and Far West,
Dodd reported that flocks, herds
and crops are rapidly recovering
from the effects of late spring.
II don't think there is any CUES
ton but what We'll set an all-time
record on cattle slaughtering next
fall" Dodd said. II think it'll come
closer to 100000 head than ST.,
100000"
Meanwhile, the War Food Admin
istration made it possible for civil
ians to get five per cent more
lamb in the near future. 1t reduced
from Is to 20 per cent the per-
centage of grade lamb produc-
ton allocated to the armed forces.
VIA said that under the Is per
cent set-aside the armed forces
were getting more lamb than they
required.
Dodd estimated that, contrary to
earlier official surveys, fall p i g
production in the Western area COW
cred by his tour will exceed state
goals. He said he was told by
Iowa farmers that their production
would exceed the state goal by 25
per cent. He heard about the same
story in South Dakota and other
areas. Fall pigs. however, repre-
sent the pork which will be con-
sumed next spring and summer.
The AAF chief held forth the
prospect that by fall civilians will
begin to enjoy the bounty of a
record crop year in meats, fruits
and vegetables If we're just given
normal weather conditions over the
area from Chicago west"

FINAL 0kINAwA DRIVE LOOMS
GOVERNOR AND
 SOLONS AGREE
 ONPROCEDURE
BY JAMES M. MOORE

Starting today, progress sive action on the majority of bills still in committees in Hartford is expected to be forthcoming as result of the compromise between party leaders at the Capitol and Governor Baldwin.
 On suggestion of the chief executive and by mutual agreement of party leaders, following consultation with colleagues of both the Senate and House, the joint commit tees will likely bring out favorable reports on the bills supported by the governor and those favored by the Democrats; in turn the bills will enter the House for adoption and then to the Senate where the latter will hold or pass depending upon the minor courtship patron age situation at the time.
 In other words should the dispo- sition of the minor court positions still be a matter of controversy at the time the bills enter the senate the latter will withhold action as indicative of their balance of power.
 Bills favored in general, by Gov ernor Baldwin are those favored by the Republican members. The Democrats in turn are supporting, in part, some of these same bills.
 One Cent Gas Tax
 The following are said to be the bills sought for passage by the gov- ernor and the majority of the Re- publican members: Liquor Control act; one-cent gas tax; adult proba- tion; equalization of school funds Housing Authority act; one-cent cigarette tax; budget; Milk Control act; compensation, second injury fund: aviation; Connecticut Re- employment Commission; uniform building code; mental hospital hospital for the chronically i'll and the inebriate bill.
 In turn the Democrats seek pas sage of the following; Fair Employ ment Practice Commission; adult | probation bill State Health and In- surance Plan; purchase of federal surplus property Department of Commerce; states attorney bill and (Continued on Page 4)
