Great things are going on the

good news, and not So much about
war finance and distress. Come to

Embezzler Wins Verdict For
$4,000 Lost In Gambling

A confessed embezzler won a
$4,000 verdict in the Montgomery
County Circuit Court last week. A
jury ruled in favor of Harry S.
Wilson, SO, former bookkeeper for a
filling station, who said he took the
money form his employer to pay
gambling debts.
The suit was against James La
Fontaine, alleged operator of an
establishment in Prince Georges
County, Md. Wilson pleaded guilty
two weeks ago to embezzlement.
Under Maryland law, anyone los
ing money by. gambling may sue
to recover. But court officials said
they believed this is the first time
in go years that such trial has
been held in a Maryland court.

Overseas Veteran
Talks To Workers

Pfc. Ed Slusarzyk of Prospect,
New York, spoke at meeting of
Fairchild Aircraft Division, last
week, held in the Airport Inn and
attended by approximately 100
people.
Pfc. Slusarzyk's talk was indica-
tive of the thinking of men who
have seen combat. He said, 1--WE
are certain to win the war against
the Japs-that's our big job now
and if we use the same cooperative
tactics, we are sure to win and
keep the peace"
This thought, he emphasized, re-
presents the thinking of the aver
age soldier He said that the re-
suits of the British, Soviet and
American military partnership
makes plain that men can get to-
gether and reach a common goal.
''Then, too" he went on, you of
Fairchild only know half of the re-
markable story of cooperation l
was in London when it was being
bombed and I know what air power
means. You people, members of
the civilian army, who build our
planes, aided in reducing that
downpour of Nazi bombs Again
you see cooperation-you made
planes-we used them-your effort
was matched by ours and together
we succeeded in whipping the
Nazis."
Pfc. Slusarzyk told the guests
about the Reconditioning work be-
ing done at Newton D. Baker; he
stressed the fact that civilian in
dusrial experts were aiding men to
make up their minds as to what
they wanted to do after the war.
He said these civilians are com
ing to the hospital on a purely vol
untary basis. Business men come
from nearby Maryland, Virginia,
Pennsylvania and West Virginia
towns for the purpose of re-orient-
ating the soldier and to give him
up-to-date facts on industrial OPP
portunities. Colonel E. L. Cook, the
Commanding Officer, and Major
Peter W. Sweetser, Chef of Recon-
ditioning Service, invite these
speakers to come before large
groups of patients. Usually about
400 wounded patients ale
assembled in the lecture hall to
meet the guests. Those who are
confined to bed hear the talks
through a loud speaker system
which reaches all of the wards of
the hospital.
Pfc. Slusarzyk wears the PreSi-
dental Citation, the Purple H art
and the Campaign Ribbon for Serv-
ice in the European Theater. His
experience includes operational
duty against Nazi planes attempt
ing to bomb the London area. He
was in the invasion forces landing
on the shores of France, participant
ting in the battle around Cher
bourg and Saint Lo. He closed
with remarks about his combat ex-
perineces-ts some of which l would
like to forget, and / am doing it
just like hundreds of others at
Newton D. Baker-doing it by
working many hours each day on
the various Reconditioning Projects
in effect there"

Revenge

A service publication tells of the
G. 1. who particularly enjoyed going
to the post dentist. Declared the
soldier, "The more work he does,
the better 1 like it." Further
questioning revealed the fact that he
was being treated by the same man
who was his dentist back home.
Only then the dentist got large fees
for his work.

Adult education should continue

For Michigan to meet this, he

started last year experimentally,
that the Department of Public In
struction direct this, and that the
actual instruction be handled thru

by the students, the state paying
