Act I. Frank Kelly is certainly the HERO OF THE HOUR in this ridiculous fracas. While other towns and sections in our country are inviting industries to come in with their payrollS and forget taxes for an indefinite period, New Lon- don Is SCREAMING for compound interest. The debt in the first place was not incurred by the Cuneo Corporation who took over the in solvent Babcock Press Corporation a number of years ago. The Cuneo Co. has paid its own taxes regular ly, and as well assumed the back taxes of the defunct company. They have offered their bodies but now the City Fathers want their blood.
 FRANK KELLY. paymaster of the Boat Company, who had the reputation of being one of the few paymasters in the nation who un- derstood figures and got out his enormous payroll on time during the trying war years, Is the head of the City Finance Division. It seems as if his knowledge of fig ures and facts on taxes could well be put to good use and that his ad- vice on so important a matter could be considered MORE THAN RELI- ABLE! YET THE CURTAIN RISES ON ACT TWO OF THE NEW LON- DON FARCE.
 Act II. Excitement runs high! City Chairman of Finance threat ems to resign, because of childish and obdurate reasoning Of his fell ow-councilors. "ALL OR NUT TIN'," is the Chant in the Council Chambers, the scene of the sad de- nouement!

Army Takes Blame For Vandalism

Order to Destroy Japanese Cy-
 ClotrOnS Mistake, War Depart
 ment Admits
 Somebody in the War Depart ment made a mistake" ordered General Douglas MacArthur to de- stroy five cyclotrons found fin Ja- pan, and 1t was done.
 That's how Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson this week ex- plained an action which aroused vigorous protests from American scientists, who called 1t "vandal- ism" and worse.
 There are only a few cyclotrons in the world. They are huge and costly equipment used to smash atoms. They played a big part in development of the atomic bomb, and are necessary in adapting atomic energy to peacetime uses.
 If the army had not taken such nasty action, the five cyclOtrons could have been moved to the United States for use here.
 Incidentally, the cyclotron was invented in the United States and those found in Japan were un- doubtedly made here. It Is not the manufacturers fault that the Jsps did not succeed in producing atom ic bombs before we did.

 remember. I interviewed many of these people. There was the little housewife from Oklahoma City who had trekked across the country with her one armed vet eran husband and their two-year- old baby. She loved her husband and her child, and she loved her country and yet this little house. wife with others like her was called by the newspapers 8 Com- munist, a traitor, an irresponsible parent and an undesirable citizen! Hers was a typical case. I grew to know these people from Texas. Nevada, Oregon and all parts of the United States as one would next door neighbors.
 The case of the Bonus Marchers and the political football that was made of their cause is now history, but somehow am glad that the final chapter of their departure from the National Capitol has not been written down for the ridicuIe and censure of our grandchildren. But I remember that memorable day, when, by order of the Presi- dent, mounted troops drove out the last five hundred Bonus Marchers with bull whips. I stood and watched, a helpless observer, in Columbus Circle and Wept un- ashamed, and in the white hot rage that filled my heart took a sol- emn oath that I would do my part when the time arose, that this could not happen again in the land of the free and the home of the brave!
 And now the time has come. We all, capital and labor, must face the future with facts and fearless hearts. We must realize that the reward of cowardice is Fascism and totalitarianism. That capital ism triumphed but a day under Fascisn and then sinks to join la- Dor in it's bitter ignominy of slavery and worse under q cruel dictator 8 hand. We must recognize from this day forward that we need each other to keep faith In the demo- cratic ways of life. We must re- memeber we are brothers and that we truly are our brothers keeper.

May we in all fairness ask, pre- paredness for what? If we are on the brink of another war, should we not have the right to demand with whom, when and where?"
 The AFL, Hines told the com mittee, believed preparedness should be accomplished through more adequate physical care for the children of the country, suffi- cient medical service for everyone, ian efficient military intelligence system and eternal vigilance on the part of the State Department and the elimination of a policy of appeasement such as was followed previous to the attack made upon us by Japan"
 Hines urged that congressional action on peacetine training be deferred until after demobilization of the armed forces and until the completion of treaties and interna- tionaI commitments land the out come of efforts to insure world peace
