II Duce's War Talk
Received CooIIy

HE thinks I called him to dis
cuss the arrival of certain news
papermen, but I disillusion him i'm
mediately. He listens to the declara-
ton of war (by Italy against the
United States and becomes pale.
He says, 1t is very tragic
''Mussolini made a speech from
the balcony. = The demonstra-
ton, taken generally, was not en-
thusiastic. We must not forget that
it was 3 o'clock in the afternoon,
that people were hungry and that
the day was cold.
I'm the evening Ribbentrop asks
that we join Germany in asking
the countries adhering to the Three
Power pact Chiefly the Balkan
countries) to declare war on the
United States. How about Spain?"
December 13-"The usual naval
woes. We have lost two cruisers
and two large ships loaded with
tanks for Libya. I wonder
whether the war won't outlast our
navy.
THE Minister from Cuba has
come to declare war. He was very
and disappointed that I
didn't share his excitement. But
having had the adventure, or should
I say misadventure, to declare war
on France, Great Britain, Russia
and the United States, could the
good man really believe I would go
pale through knowing that Sergt.
Batista (Cuba's DICTATOR was mo-
bilizing against us the forces of
Cuba on land and sea and in the
air? Ecuador, too, has declared war,
but I had my secretary receive the
Minister"
December 14-"Cavallero justifies
our naval defeats with an impu-
dence that can't be equaled. .
Mussolini is calm. This morning he
joked a long time. He took it out
on Christmas, Christmas gifts and
gifts for all feasts in general. He
says that gift giving is the alibi
created by the rich to justify their
good fortune in the eyes of the
poor"
December 16-"Venice is sad, emp
ty, tired. Empty hotels, deserted
streets. Fog. Misery. Darkness. I
have only vague memories of the
Venice of the other war, but it was
nothing like this"

$40, 900 Hobby, Business Built
From Purchase of Two Doves
Clayton james Imports
Tropical Birds, Sells
To Other Collectors

Fifteen years ago Clayton M.
James, then an electrical contractor,
purchased a pair of white doves,
intending to raise them as hobby
Today Mr.. James, now District
electrical inspector, has a total Of
1000 birds in at least IS varieties
worth an estimated $4,000 on his
Cedar Hill Bird Farm at Landover,
Md. They include 638 rare tropical
birds which arrived this week from
Venezuela.
1t all started after Mr.. James
bought his doves when he lived in
East Riverdale. Three months later
he got pair of ring-necked doves
and then branched out into para
keets and canaries. Business be-
came so good that Mr.. James sold
out in 1886 and purchased 10-acre
farm at Landover, where he could
expand.
Imported Tropical Birds.
He began with quails, pheasants
and parakeets and gradually added
other varieties, including tropical
birds from breeders in California
and Florida.
Curiously enough, according to
Mr.. James, practically all breeding
of foreign birds imported to Califor-
mia was done by japanese.
When the war started, transporta-
ton difficulties prevented the i'm
portation of birds, and Mr.. James
aviary only had parakeets and doves.
Meanwhile, he attempted to make
his own contacts in South America
in an effort to import tropical birds.
First Shipments.
This year, for the first time, he
received shipments from Venezuela,
and prospects are good for similar
shipments In the future.
The birds range in value from
$50 for male black-hooded red sis
kin to $3.50 for a peacock. Some of
the birds are extremely tame, perch
ing on Mr.. James hand when he
feeds them. He explained that they
apparently were taken from their
nests by natives and hand fed.
He has II peacockS, including a
4-year-old whose tail, when spread,
measures by 8 feet.
Sold to Collectors.
Most of the birds, Mr.. James said,
are sold to aviarists for their collec-
lions.
Although his job as District cleo
trical inspector keeps him busy all
day, he manages, with the help of
his wife, a teacher at Mckinley High
School, to care for the birds dur
ing the evening.
Despite his expanding business,
Mr.. James has no thought of retir-
ing and devoting all his time to
raising birds. All he would say in
this connection was, ut may develop
into a livelihood"

own. He denied returning to the
room. He testified he had been
drinking at a night club until late

u. 5. Agency Is Proposed
For Produce Distribution
BY the Associated Press.


RICHMOND, Va, July ia
governmental agency to "set the
pace" in distributing farm produce
was sought today by j. H. Meek, di-
rector of the Division of Markets of
the State Department of Agricul-
ture, who said he had submitted his
plan to subcommittee of the House
Agriculture Committee.
His proposed agency would own
and operate packing, processing,
transportation and distribution ia
cilities adequate to handle products
from producer to consumers in suf-
ficient quantities to set the pace for
similar distribution agencies. He
said profits would be paid to the
Federal Treasury.
The agency should have connec-
tions abroad for disposing of surplus
produce from this country and
bringing in foods and products from
other countries, he said, advocating
that profits from imports should be
used to meet deficits on exports.
