Mr.. Roosevelt helped develop to
such great magnitude.

Bishop Dunn led prayer and then
recalled that Mr.. Roosevelt II
years ago voiced his own deep

his last and that we should go

out fear of our allies and friends,
and without fear of our own In

A vested choir led in hymn

was "Faith to Our Fathers"

place was in almost total black

poignant. Slowly the studied mo-

pattern of behavior straining
against emotional depths of the

could feel the power of it i'll the

at the end Of the dance, left the
floor in a dreamy daze.
Raft looked a little dizzy himself.
Boy he said as they rejoined
Brooks and Corinne at the table.

alteration at Terry. Il say-What's

Terry was shocked out Of her

But you're just down here for
laughs, aren't YOU" persisted the
ettervescent Raft. Don't you want
to see the pampas?"
Terry blurted out before she
could stop herself. ooh. yes-only I
couldn't just now" Her en-
barassed gaze fickered once to-
ward Brooks as she searched drs-
perately for an alibi.
Brooks said courteously, But it's
a grand idea, Miss mean. Terry"
LOVELY" murmured COrinne.
And if you want your invitation
straight from the hostess of Winde-

Terry turned to follow Rats

party of elderly, rich Appointments.
A powerfully built, suave MAJ Of

woman, flashing jewels like a show

NEW VETERANS HEAD
 Cincinnati Enuuirer)

President Truman's appointment of Gen. Omar Bradley to succeed Brig. Gen. Frank T. Hines as chief of the U S. Vet erans' Bureau will meet with instant ap- proval throughout the country. Not only has General Bradley's recent war record endeared him to the hearts of all Ameri- cans, but recent criticism which has fal- len on the Veterans Administration, whether just or unjust, has reacted to the discredit of present officials.
 When Frank Hines took office as ad- ministrator of veterans affairs, back in 1923, he was fresh from a series of ad- ministrative military triumphs, both in the United States and Europe. He had been chief of the vital embarkation serv- ice in World War l, and had formulated the plans for moving the AEF to it's for eign stations. Later, when those same soldiers were returning home, he saved the country millions of dollars in adjust ing rates with foreign governments and speeding the troop movements After the war he went to private steamship line as vice president, but returned to gov ernment service at the call of President Harding.
 The Veterans Bureau just then was in

One vitally important problem facing the Government, and all of us, is the physical care of the men who have done the fighting with their health and blood. The appointment by President Truman of Gen. Omar Bradley as head of the Veterans Administration is stroke of inspiration which we believe everyone will applaud.
 The American public is assured that it will have as it's agent in administering the program which Congress has out lined one of the ablest generals in the Army. The veteran will feel that truly he has friend in court, one who knows at first hand what have been his priva- tions and his sacrifices and who will make every effort to see that he receives his just due under the law. General Bradley's appointment gives added meaning to the popular description of the veterans statutes, the GI Bill of Rights.

some disrepute, but General Hines inn mediately set to work to put it in order He campaigned for the consolidation of veterans agencies, and won his fight. Certainly he did much to make the en- tire service program smoother and nfore effective.
 General Bradley comes into the post with background even more brilliant than that of General Hines, who is now 66 years old With the drive, the intelli- gence and the experience he has acquir- ed in years of Army service, the new vet erans' chief will contribute much to the postwar job of veterans assistance "a job which will be multiplied many times over during the coming years.

WAGE DETRIMENTAL

The outright discrimination against Alaskans by the Army and Navy in issuing an order that henceforth civilian employees will not receive the 25% wage differ ential if recruited in Alaska but will continue to do so if hired in the States, is being fought vigor- ously by all agencies and individ- uals in Washington really conver- sant with the facts.
 The ruling, which was put into effect without proir consultation with any of those agencies or in- dividuals, was termed by Delegate Bartlett as being simply fantas- tic. How these agencies can ex- pect two persons doing identical work to have their pay established by reason of residential qualifica- tions is beyond comprehension"
 Delegate Harrington of Hawaii has joined in the battle. The order likewise discriminates against residents of the Islands.
