BETH BLAINE.

Can you sing or dance, do q
novelty act or a really good i'm
personation? If you can you're

month at the Thomson Center.
A native of Oklahoma, Mrs.
Davis took her masters degree
in drama from Carnegie. She
did professional stock work and
later radio work. She knows the
entertainment world from A to
z. What's more, her standards
in entertainment are tops. That's
why she expects the people who
come to additions to have some
thing to offer.
Before the war Mrs. Davis was
arranging volunteer entertain
ment for the District of Columbia
Recreation Department for hos
pital and civic organizations very
similar to that now arranged for
the military, so that when we
were bombed into the war the
program was already moulded.
The D. c. Recreation Depart
ment now serves in recreation
halls, post theaters, mess halls,
military hospitals, service clubs
and with various church activi-
ties for servicemen in the Mill
tary District of Washington and
the Potomac River Naval Com

with the Red Cross, the USO
and the YWCA in many in
stances-and its biggest job at
the present time Is at the re-
placement depots. A group of
the Recreation Departments en-
tertainers were among the first
who ever went to men on ma

Practical Retribution

The recapture of Clark Field on Luzon, like the recapture of Guam, brought a dramatic climax of retribution to our steady advance in the Pacific war. It avenged in part the savage, stealthy Jap attack of December 8, 1941, which de- stroyed planes and pilots and helped hasten the fall of Manila.
 But the fields recapture is of practical as well as dramatic value. It provides a springboard for air operations which will seal the Japs' fate in Manila. And with Manila retaken, one of our great supply and repair problems will be solved.
 Thus far our Pacific supply problem has been complicated by some ships which had no equipment for unloading onto lighters offshore. For that reason it was necessary to send them to Hawaii or Australia and there transfer cargo to other vessels.
 With Manila Bays deep water and port facilities, many miles and much labor will be saved. And, of course, it will also give us an invaluable base for naval oper- ations against the China coast and Japanese islands. Now with a bomber base almost in Manila's outskirts, the prize is within reach.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-02-05
The Case of Henry Wallace

The nomination of Henry A. Wallace as Secretary of Commerce by PreSi- dent Roosevelt has been the most con- troverSial issue in Washington since election day. The fight over Wallace boils down to just one question: Is he qualified to hold Cabinet position of any kind, and if so is he competent to succeed Jesse Jones as Federal Loan Administrator?
 President Roosevelt made it very plain in his letter published at the time he submitted the nomination that Wallace was being rewarded for his political SUD- port and loyalty to the New Deal in the recent election. Opponents of Wallace have charged that he is incompetent, and far more radical than any political group, except the so-called Sidney Hill man branch of one of the big national labor unions.
 Strangely enough the Senate of the United States over which Wallace pre- sided for four years does not believe that Wallace is an able leader. The only thing that has bolstered Wallace and kept him from being dumped overheard is desire upon the part of Democrats, and some Republican Senators, to okay the recom- nendations of the President. Aside from that desire, the Congress is opposed to Wallace.

Ethics and Journalism

singling out of any one individual from group and implying that the ben efits to be received by that group under a proposed pension plan are designed primarily for the welfare of that one ln- dividual, as was done in a recent news paper account published under the guise of a news report is the type of journal ism which has created that public dis trust of newspapers we so often en- counter.
 It is unjust that any one newspaper, out of what appears to be personal spite, be permitted to funtcion in such man. ner that all other newspapers are penal ized by being saddled with this public
 Certainly such journalistic practices constitute bad faith in fulfilling that trust which the citizens of this nation have commissioned to all newspapers under the Constitution.
