MY DEAR MR.. NOISE:
THANKS TO your articles, pub
l. lie sentiment is increasing
against viviSection.
1t is astonishing the number
of people who believe that
anesthetics are used in animal
experimentation. Too, many pco-
pie look Skeptical when told ami
mats are tortured with no
practical results to humanity.
The ignorance re animal expert
mentatien is appalling. / call
their attention to medical jour-
nails in which reports expose
the needless tortureS, many of
which are practiced to watch
the reaction Of helpless animals.
/ have had more arguments
that vivisection is necessary to
decrease cancer. l refer them
TO doctors who have specialized
in cancer and who testify that
viviSection has not helped di-
minish cancer.
The press is the best medium
Of education and arousing the
public. Note the flood of letters
following your article sert TO
the Journal-American. II
small space in the editorial
sheet were allotted to informing
tho public of facts and state
ments of reputable, experienced
doctors, l am sure the results
would be most encouraging.
Another point is that America
has no laws regulating vivisec-
ton. In England Vivisection is
regulated.
l have appointed myself a
committee of one 10 discuss and
inform dog owners in my neigh
borhood the futility of vivi-
section. l give them typed
copies of statements of doctors
and ask them TO pass them
along TO their friends. In this
way many have written TO Rep.
Lemke. Few knew about the
Lemke bill.
Universal sentiment will pro-
test the horrible practice of
vivisection when the people
know that well known experi-
enced doctors testify that viv-
section has not helped hu-
manity. / know that the state
ments of such doctors has
changed the opinion of many
people who before knowing the
truth believed vivisection neces-
sary.
Sincerely,
MRS. c. +. YOUNG.

TNHE total number Of civilian EN-.
l. ployes of the federal government,
according to Senator Harry F. Byrd
of the congressional committee on
nonessential exp enditures, was
3,372.710 on Feb. of this year.
This figure is an increase of 29,-
700 in ONE MONTH.
It is an increase of 7,481 in ONE
YEAR.
The cost to the American people
of carrying this stupendous and
growing civilian pay roll, reports the
committee, is SEVEN BILLION
DOLLARS A YEAR.
1T appears from the record"
wryly comments Senator Byrd, "that
the drive to increase federal employ
ment has commenced once again"
AS it's name implies, the congress
sional committee on nonessential ex.
penditures is body created by both
houses of Congress to REDUCE fed
eral employment wherever it is not
necessary for the welfare of the
country or essential to the efficient
functioning of the government.
OBVIOUSLY, the committee is not
" accomplishing that purpose.
But it is not for the lack of trying
and it is especially not for the lack
of any nonessential employment and
expenditures.
The committee has specifically
urged the dropping of ONE THIRD
OF A MILLION nonessential pay
rollers from the various federal
agencies. -"
"If the committee S recommenda-
tion to reduce federal personnel by
three hundred thousand were fol-
lowed" says Senator Byrd, it would
release sufficient manpower to pro-
duce over one hundred and twenty
six B-29 Superfortresses EVERY
TWENTY FOUR HOURS, or more
than 39,410 of those planes IN A
YEAR"
American bureaucracy, as the In.
ternational News Service dispatch
reporting these federal employment
statistics said, is indeed putting on
fat"
Another member of the United
States Senate recently stressed the
national significance of these
astounding statistics.

BEG the privilege through
L the great sounding-board of

feeble cry of protest TO the
tide of resentment now surging
against the profane and mean
ingless subjugstion of our de-
fenseless field and household

For this unholy and indefensi-
BILE atrocity to be inflicted upon
the delicate organs of our un-
derprivileged foundlings in the
name of science is an injustice
beyond the realm of common
decency and is an insult to the
intelligence of a civilized people.
Vivisection - an illegitimate
brainchild of profiigate ancestry
has no common ground within
the boundaries of reasonable
tolerance, and there is no emer-
gency under the sun of sufficient
Importance TO sustain the con-

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. 80
(ANP)-Twenty-seven men were
fined here to mark the final chap

The men heard reprimand from
Judge Welsh before sentence was

and your failure to cooperate made
it necessary that federal troops be
called to relieve the city Of the de-

over the company's use of Negro

Lyceum Program
For 1856 Season
Anna May Wong, Chinese Ac-
tress Opens Program Oct. 9.

The Lyceum Committee of the
Washington County Teachers AS
ISOLATION has announced the Lyceum
program for the 1945-46 season,
which will be opened by Anna May
Wong, noted Chinese actress, on
Tuesday evening, October 9, in the
Hagerstown High School auditorium
Each year the Washington Coun-
ty Teachers Association brings to
Hagerstown, in a lyceum series, out
standing men and women recognized
as authorities or artists in their par
ticular fields, and this year they
have been exceptionally fortunate,
for, following Miss Wong, will be:
Cecil Brown, world-famous COM

Stuart Chase, nationally known
authority on economics and social
problems, on Wednesday, February
IS, 1916, and Kumar Gashel, author,

Anna May Wong will appear in a
dramatic presentation, Leaves From
A Chinese Fam" in which she de-
picts scenes from her screen and
stage successes. Although Miss Wong
is American born and educated, she
has spent many years in her ances-
trail home, and she will speak about
her country fro mher own keen OBJ
servations
Cecil Brown, former ace Far East
ern correspondent for CHS, who will
be the speaker on Thursday evening,
December 6, will interpret and an
alyze the latest developments on the
global front. So unerring is his
sense of history in the making that
his appearance promises to be one of
the highlights of the lyceum series.
On Wednesday, February Is, 1916,
Stuart Chase will speak to the Ha-
gerstown audience on the economic
and social trends in the period Of re-
conversion. He will offer specific
proposals for action.
As the last speaker in the lyceum
serier, Kumar Gashel will appear
here on Monday evening, April q,
to present an impartial and thorough
lecture about India. He will stress
the Internationally between India
and the United States.
Tickets for this series may now

Don't Mail Packages
To Boys Returning
Make Certain Your Soldier Or

Christmas Before Mailing.

Thousands of packages are being
hauled great distances overseas to
service men who won't be there to
receive them.
These men, homeward bound, can't
be bothered about undelivered par
GELS, but the mail jam will be tough
on men remaining overseas.
So the Army and Navy postal
authorities make the following sug-
gestions:
l. Don't mail packages to men
known to be returning within the
next few months.
2. If man is definitely known
to be assigned to an occupation
force, play Santa and send him a
package.
Inclusion of credit points for over
seas service has speeded up the de-
mobilization program and prompted
the Army and Navy Mail Service to
adopt the following rules.
Letters and packages sent to per-
sonel returning to the United States
for discharge, rehabilitation leave or
shore duty will be returned to the
sender, unless the service-man has
left a civilian forwarding address.
