JACKALS AT NIGHT

four, Jerusalem was silent at
night. All traffic and business
cease after nightfall. AS l sat
reading in our large upper room
in the heart of the city, it seemed
as if everybody was asleep.
Except for the occasional cries
of packs of jackals outside the
walls, on their nightly prowl for
plumber. They sound like an H.
furiated mob. Once, in Kerbela, !
misunderstood their cries for that
Ct a crowd eager to get at the
foreign Christians.
Jackals represent tn e night
proving forces of evil. which in
fest every modern city.
Safe in our own life, and at
peace with Thee, o God, we pray
that we may be vigilant foes Of
all that would hurt and destroy.
Amen.

Hormone Preparation Increases The
Milk Production OF Cows WPer Cent

'tyroNin" is able to release the
o-c led "metamorphosis" in
frogs, whereby the tadpoles pro-
vided with tails are transformed
into the type of grown-up frogs.
The new Swedish preparation
for stimulating the milll-secretion
of cattle contains iodic casein.
During some months seven cows
were treated with this prepara-
ton, receiving a daily ration of
so grams. AS mentioned. the re-
suits were very satisfactory. The
enhanced metabolism of the COWS
caused. however, a monthly de-
crease in weight of. on an average,
Kilograms. The breathing in
creased by 6-S inhalauons per
minute, but the cows showed no
signs of organic injuries. The
problem, however. still remains
whether the animals will stand
the intensified way of living for
any lengthy period. If so, the
hormone experiments viii be of

TOO MUCH 'ALBP
 SPOILS TESTIMONY
PembertOn Street Grocer Fined; Personal Medi-
 cine" Story "Out"

Expressing incredulity that a man would keep ten gallons of wine, ten cases of beer, and bot- tie of whiskey in his grocery store for his personal use, City Court Judge Charles R. Summa this morning imposed fine of $100 on Antonio Stephano, 46, on charges of keeping liquor with intent to sell and selling liquor without liz cense at his grocery store at 35 Pemberton street.
 Detective Sgt. Joseph Mccarthy and Detective James Stack testi- fled that when they went into Stephanos store on March 30, Ste phano sold Stack a bottle of wine for dollar. They then went into the back room, the officers salds and confiscated the liquor.
 Stephano, replying to questions by Atty. Ralph Coppeto, told the court that he kept the liquor for his personal use. He said he was under a doctors care, and his doc- tor had ordered him when he did not feel well to stop working and take a drink.
 He said that he did not sell the liquor to the detective, but gave i5 to him when he said he needed it for sick friend. Crossexamin- { ed by Prosecutor Albert w. Hum Z mel, Stephano said he took the- dollar from Stack because he s thought he was being given pres . ent in return.

them when any shortcomings are shown, on their part.
 William Painter CR-Naugatuck) also spoke in behalf of the bill.
 AS reported here yesterday a fa- vorable report was in the House yesterday relative to the forfeited rights request for Thomas Shana- han and John Crary of this city.
 The pension bill being supported separately by a group of employees of the city will likely be transferred from the committee on cities and boroughs to the public personnel committee it was revealed today contrary to reports that the com mittee was adamant in its refusal to make the transfer.
 Rep. Howard Pratt CR-Willington) house chairman of the cities and boroughs committee yesterday told Waterbury authorities that the conn., mittee had no objection to the transfer of the bill.
 Senator Patrick Wallace and Sen. Edward P. Egan of this city re- quested the change yesterday on the basis that two other similar bills relating to Waterbury's pen sion problems were to be heard April 19 before the public personnel committee and felt that the afore- mentioned legislature should be heard at the same time before the same committee. Rep. Pratt and the committee agreed unanimously yesterday afternoon to make the transfer if no further objections from proponents of the bill were forthcoming.
 Ryan Attacks Methods
 Edward M. Ryan of this city, spoke before the public utilities committee of the legislature yes- terday in support of the bill of Rep Joseph Rosko of Naugatuck, which would require more infor- mation to appear on gas and elec- tric bills so that the consumer might better understand what he is paying for.
 "The way matters stand the pub lie utility company can send a bill for the use of gas or elec- tricity to 8 consumer and the con- sumner has no recourse but to pay the amount the company says he owes."
 T suggest that in, lieu of the code number there be inserted on each bill rendered the amount the con- sumner is charged on 8 fiat rate plus what he is charged above the flat rate and that the state- ment show continuous meter reading as taken each month, or every three months"

Starvation Danger
 Threatening Italy

tion; Second, the problem is still a long way from being solved.
 For in spite of the best efforts we can make the situation here may even grow worse. The danger of wild currency imitation is a factor which must constantly be kept in mind. The comparatively recent awareness of the Italian people that all these imported items trucks, food, other supplies are to be checked off under reparation clauses of sur- render agreements against any goods and services they've provided our armise while on Italian soil in- creases that danger.
 Moreover, the Italian people know now hat all the lire issued to the American and British soldiers in pay are to be redeemed by the Italian government. In short, they've just begun to realize that no matter what America sends them it will not be received for nothing and that the final bill will be charged up to their own government. And here as at home such bills must come out of the pockets of the taxpayers.
 I have talked to a number of Ital- ians about this reverse lend-lease aspect of Italian relief. It's both in- teresting and heartening to note that whereas they groan at the thought of the heavy tax burden that's bound to fall upon them as a beaten people they don't consider it unjust or unreasonable that they

should be obliged to assume them.
 An Italian official at Rome eX- pressed it to me this way. You Americans have made many serious political mistakes since you came td Italy but none as serious as the one we made when we got into the war on Hitler's side"
 We ask only one thing-a chance to rectify that error by bringing our. country back again into the column of peaceful Democratic nations. But this we cannot do while the Italisn n people face starvation and with 1t the threat of political chaos. Food and more food is the key to the political situation in Italy today.
 "Everything that America does to help feed us helps to minimize the threat of civil war and also Com- munism. Therefore we hope America will not view the food program as pure humanitarianism or charity. It's sound politics for you and If we get food soon enough and in great enough quantities we figure it will be sound politics for our people to pay for 1t to limit our resources"

New York, April 11--(UP)-It re- mained today for Yum Gee, Chi nese-American painter, to chal- lenge the law of gravity by an- nouncing that he expects to float an egg two inches off the ground.
 Yun Gee, whose painting tech- nique is based on theory that an egg reflects as many colors as a diamond, has not floated an egg yet, but he VOWS he has seen it donc in China, and believes the moment may come when he can do it.
 National whoople over egg standing, which originated in Chungking where United Press Cor respondent Walter Bundle saw a Chinese press censor turn the trick, caused Yum Gee to smile indulgent- ly. To Yum Gee, egg-standing is as simple as two plus two equals four.
 As boy. he said, he watched an elderly Chinese stand three eggs on end in triangle, balance a fourth on top of them, then remove the base eggs one by one, leaving the fourth suspended in the air The Chinese called this Tung Tan Dou, or float on empty sky" Such a thing was possible. he said. only when male and female electric cur rents underground were introduced under certain conditions too mys- terious for the occidental mind to fathom.
 The same boy and girl currents, he said, also make hair shed by oxen stand upright on the ground just before an earthquake. Such mysteries are part of ancient Chi nese lore. Speaking of lore, he dis

 By using this ring, he said, his ancestors could determine in ad- vance winners of battles between water buffaloes and land buffaloes. A water buffalo hates a fight in dry weather but is hard to beat on rainy day. The ring figured the weather, Yun Gee said.
 Owner of a 100-year old ducks egg (pickled), Yum Gee revealed that snakes egg will stand long, CT than any other-until doomsday if nobody jars it off balance.
 He ordered four eggs from a waiter in a restaurant He stood one on end on the bare table in two seconds flat. Conditions, he said, were impossible for an at tempt at floating an egg, which he has been trying to do since he came here for citizenship in 1921.
 However, he held three of the eggs in his two hands and arrang- ed them end to end. He pressed on the end eggs. The center one whirled.
 That's the yolk finding its Axis" he said. Elementary"
 The waiter interrupted. Gotta have those eggs," he said.
 Yun Gee said he was going to arrange a demonstration of his egg technique at the Lilienfeld gall laries, New York, where his paint ings are on exhibition. He will in- vite reporters and photographers and tell them the real reason why eggs stand on end.
 And if conditions are not 'im- possible he said. he will try float ing an egg two inches off the ground. Egg-standers stand by.

let Junior Achievement recruit in the public

He agreed that teaching corporate
techniques is not enough. Management
is only half of the picture. Labor is the
other half.
Can those two wheels - management and
labor - run on the same axle? The American
enterprise system must face that test during
the next fifteen years." Mansperger declared.
In those years, Junior Achievement must
measure its success by the success with which
it trains these young people to meet the
problem of cooperation between capital and
labor - to make capitalism work.
