pirate action against guilty individ-
uals within his own theater. The
War Department states that the
alter commander is not authorized to
take action against an organization.
Raises Question.
8. However. there is raised by this
incident a question of the most
serious import to all representatives
of the press in this theater. This
question is the extent to which the
Allied command can in any future
case permit pressmen advance &C
cess to news of the most secret
character on the same basis that
always has applied in the past. To
my knowledge this is the first time
that any representative of the press,
either here or in Gen. Eisenhower
former theater, has been guilty of
such an offense, and I have recon-
mended to him that he continue to
pursue his former practice in spite
of this deliberate violation against
good faith, against the reputation
of the press for reliability, in spite
of solemn promise, and against
security definitely involving possible
loss of American and Allied lives.
In making this recommendation,
which has been approved, I have
engaged to be personally responsible
for the good faith of each press
representative who is permitted flu
ture access to such stories.
The supreme commander has
asked me to express to all the other
newsmen in the theater his great
qualification that with this single
exception his confidence in the press
has never once been violated in his
experience of almost three years as
a theater commander. He regrets
that because of their observance of
his confidence in this instance they
and their organizations have suf-
fered professionally.

Mcfarland Demands
Lifting Of Censorship

Senator Mcfarland, Democrat, of
Arizona today demanded lifting of
rigid censorship controls ''as quickly
and as completely as possible, -
charging the surrender of Germany
was badly mishandled by censor
ship officials"
Referring to the much discussed
story of Edward Kennedy announc-
ing the signing of the surrender
terms in France, the Arizona Sem
ator said:
ut seems to me that whether or
not an Associated Press reporter
violated an understanding with re-
spect to the timing of his story is of
relatively minor consequence in
comparison with the larger aspects
here involved of censorship and the
freedom Of news.
President Truman is to be COM
mended in withholding the official
announcement of We day on &C
count of the agreement which our
Government had that it would be
made simultaneously by the three
powers. But an official announce
ment is one thing, and the free flow
Of news is another"

Aircraft |ndustry's
Cutback Viewed as
Big Postwar Problem
BY j. A. OLEARY.

Generalization of the huge air.
craft industry was pictured as one
of Americas major postwar prob
lens in report made public today
by a Senate Military Affairs Sub
committee, headed by Senator OMa-
honey, Democrat, of Wyoming.
Even if the industry should de-
velop a peacetime volume or 10
times that existing in 1886 and 1887
there would still occur a decline of
perhaps 80 per cent in total output,
according to statement embodied
in the report, by officials of the War,
Navy and Commerce Departments
The purpose of Senator O'Ma-
honey's report was to show that
those three agencies, in cooperation
with his War Contracts Subcommit-
tee, are working on the problem as
the contraction of the industry gets
under way during the interval be-
tween We day and final victory
over Japan. To sum up the mag
nitude of the aircraft reconversion
task, Senator O'Mahoney said:
In five years an industry which
had been producing 5000 planes an
nually was transformed into an in
dustry producing more than 5000
planes per month. With less than
100000 workers in 1899, it was en-
ploying more than 100000 at the
peak.
Worlds Greatest Industry.
Prom one of the Nations COM
paratively unimportant industrial
activities in 1889, it became the
worlds greatest in 1914. in terms of
the dollar value of goods produced,
while in terms of effective engineer
ing advancement it is probably out
ranked by no other material accom-
pliShment of man.
"All this is now being thrown into
reverse. There is no civilian market
for the output of this vast system.
One months current production of
transport planes-constituting, in
cidentally, less than 20 per cent of
the total current aircraft output
would provide a whole years re-
placements for the equipment oper-
ated by all of the airlines of the
whole world before the war. Thus,
though much thought is being given
to the development of both global
and local air commerce, the ques-

dous capacity to produce which the
Government has created Is wholly
unanswered"
Ford to Halt in July.
The Willow Run plant of the
Ford Motor Co. was the largest
plant built by the Government for
the production of air frames, and
will be discontinued after July.
Commenting on this, the report
said:
THE statement submitted by the
Army Air Forces that the Willow
Run plant will no longer be re-
quired for the final assembly of air.
planes and the circumstance that
no needs have as yet been found
for the use of that plant in the
manufacture of other war material,
brings home to the American people
the blunt fact that the problems
connected with the disposal of at
least this particular aircraft plant
are no longer worries of the distant
future, but are an immediate task
for which a solution must be
planned now.
willow Run may, indeed, be held
as part of standby Government
system, but the few data given with
respect to this one plant demon
strate the staggering proportion of
the problems with which the Gov
eminent and the people will be
faced In developing a program for
the use, to say nothing of the dis
posal, of the aircraft plants and IA
cilities which were built here with
public funds to crush Nazi and Jap
anese military power"
Future national security and the
opportunities of the members and
employees in the industry depend on
the decisions made with respect to
Government owned aircraft plants,
the report stated. Senator O'Ma-
honey said the final report of the
interdepartmental committee work
ing on the problem for the War,
Navy and Commerce Departments
is not expected before November /.

We think of an almanac as a
printed book, but other kinds of
almanacs have been employed
Take, for example, the "clog al
manac" which was common in parts
of Great Britain only three CEN
turies ago
The name came from the fact
that this almanac was made, most
often, from wood. clog" meant
"log" or block of wood" during the
Middle Ages, and even today there
is part of England where it carries
that meaning.
On each corner Of the wooden
block were hicks representing day
of the year. These were in groups
of seven, and every seventh one was
larger and deeper, since it stood for
Sunday.
Clog 'almanacs no longer are
made, but several of them are
owned by the British Museum in
London and few by other mu-
seums. They were most common
in Northern England, where they
seem to have been brought in by the
Norsemen, perhaps 1000 years ago.
Even older than the clog almanac
were the handwritten almanacs
made by the ancient Romans. Some
of these were in use when Augustus
was ruler of the Roman Empire.
They were known as "fasti."
In Roman almanacs q person
Evening star., 1945-01-14

found a list of the feast days Of
the year, along with records of
honors paid to famous men, such
as Augustus and Tiberius. Like
wise, there were notes on market
days.
The first printed almanac seems
to have been issued in Vienna,
Austria, in 1457. It was prepared
by an astronomer named Purbach.
In France. several almanacs were
published in the century which fol-
lowed. The French almanacs con.
tanned many predictions of things
to come" like those made by Nos
tradamus. Many persons believed
the predictions and some of the
kings grew nervous about them.
Two royal laws" were issued to
put a stop to the publishing of such
prophecies.
In Great Britain q man named
Francis Moore prepared an almanac
in 1700. Known as "Vox Stellarum,
or Voice of the Stars,a it was
printed year after year, each time
with new predictions. It still is
published, under the name of "Old
Moore's Almanac"
Best known almanac of early
days on this continent was pub
lished at Philadelphia by Benjamin
Franklin. 1t was called Poor
Richards Almanac" and was issued
for quarter Of century.

Sunny days in lovely New Eng
land coast towns and colorful flower
arrangements are the subjects of
paintings by the late Jessie E. Baker,
which compose a memorial exhibi-
ton now on view at the Arts Club.
Fourteen of the 81 oils are loans
from Washington collectors, assem-
bled by Katherine Sunny. Not only
is the show appealing because of sub
jects and technique, it also-is of in
terest because of the artists long
association with art circles in this
city, and her extensive acquaintance
Miss Baker was a charter member
of the Arts Club and also was afflli-
ated with the Washington Society
of Artists. Before her retirement,
she taught art for more than a
quarter century at Central High
School. She spent summers in Mas
sachusetts, where she belonged to
the North Shore Art Association in
Gloucester. She died last April.
The paintings in the present show
are conservative, yet the variations
in technique reveal the open-minded
attitude she had toward different
ways of expression. Two paintings
hanging side by side afford a good
demonstration of this attitude /.
Lane in Gloucester" painted first
impressionistically, and some years
later in more modern style. At first
glance, the visitor probably will not
notice that they depict the identical

ton makes one recognize the same

from the same vantage point, first
