LIFE IN THE OLD BOYS YET

DR.. Eornest A. Hooton Of Harvard is distn-
eushed onthropooeist. His books - which include
Twilight Of Man" and why Men Behove Like
Apes, and Vice Verso" ore full Of Pun9ent and
provocative thought So are some Of his statements,
like his recent one war.
1t appears that Or. Hooton disopProves OF war.
But it is certain thot he disopproves Of middle oge
even more And he would toke core Of both by bring
ing home our young fighting men and letting them
roise families while the men over As carry on the
fight and presumably kill themselves off.
I'VE might as we'll have our coronory thrombosis
on the battlefield as on the golf course" soys the
eminent doctor, who incidentally is ST.
Dr. Hooton is not alone when he deplores wor's
troec waste Of youthful life and talent and promise.
And few will quarrel With his implication thot, otter
IS the overoee man is no biological prize package.
But his utter contempt Of mans later years, which is
going to send lot Of over45ers doshng to re-reod
Brownne's "Robbi Ben Ezro" for comfort, seems
overly severe.

OLD FEUD AT BOTTOM
OF CHARGES

OLD FEUD AT BOTTOM
OF CHARGES
Management charges that
labor isn't producing all il could
is the result of an old feud. In
the days before the industry was
organized, labor charges that
management INDUCED in a pro-
gram Of cutting piece work pay
rates every time a workman got
efficient and found ways to in
crease his production. It is diff
ficult to unsell labor on the idea
that management will not do the
same thing again if it has the
chance.
Last December an agreement
was made to freeze the theoreti-
cal piece work rates for the
first go days of 1945. Produc-
ton Immediately jumped by as
much as 46 per cent in some
plants.
The future of emergency tire
production will be settled when
this agreement comes up for re-
newal and when the War Labor
Board hands out its decision on
the tire workers demand for in
creased pay.

Major Herrick Gets
Bronze Star Medal

Major Roger M. Herrick, O.
33058l. Air Corps, distinguished
himself by meritorious service in
direct support of combat opera
tons against the enemy in China
from September /, 1914 to Nov
cmber %. 1914.
As Air Party Officer attached
10 units of the Chinese Expedi-
tionary Forces during the Sal
ween Campaign, Major Herrick
displayed unusual initiative in the
face of difficult and primitive
conditions, courage under enemy
artillery and small arms fire, and
devotion to duty.
Charged with the responsibility
for ensuring close cooperation be-
tween elements of the Fourteenth
Air Force and the Chinese ground
forces. this officer set up and
maintained the effective air-to-
air communications so necessary
60 successful combined opera
lions; he overcame the language
barrier and trained the troops to
which he was responsible in the
techniques of target-marking; he
kept a steady flow of fresh in
telligence streaming back to air
control; and with accuracy and
dispatch he talked planes into
their pinpoint targets.
The sum total of his efforts was
a major contribution to smooth
team work between ground and
air and reflects great credit on
him as an officer in the Army OF
the United States.

Third Trial Convicts Man
In Sister-in-Law's Murder

William Copeland, 81, colored, was
found guilty of first-degree murder
last night by a District Court jury
in the shooting of Mrs. Dora M.
Johnson, 43, colored, in February,
1914.
The jury deliberated approximate
ly Az hours. Two previous trials of
Copeland had ended in mistrial, once
when a policeman's testimony had
been held prejudicial and again
when a witness seated in the court
room interrupted with a statement
held prejudicial.
Victim of the Staying was the sis
ter of a woman whom Copeland
had married without dissolving his
first marriage, witnesses said.
Copeland also is charged with
shooting and wounding the second
wife, Mrs. Hazel Copeland, and shoot
and wounding Mrs. Johnson's hus-
band, William H. johnson. The
shooting took place in the 27O0 block
of Sherman avenue NV.
The death penalty Is mandatory
on conviction for first-degree mur-
der. Justice r. Alan Goldsborough,
who presided at the trial, did not set
a date for sentencing. Copeland was
prosecuted by Assistant United
States Attorney John P. Burke.
