Extra Job For Farrell

AS new industries are among Will
mington's major projects for the post
war era and John H. Farrell, new exc
cutive secretary of the Chamber OF
Commerce, has long been identified
with similar undertakings, the pro-
posal that he be employed as an indus
trial agent with a liberal budget to
draw on and cooperation from the city
and county governments as we'll as all
organizations concerned with the de-
velopment of Wilmington obviously
would be a step in the right direction.
AS the matter now stands Mr.. Far
rel would concentrate upon the pro-
motion of new industries without sur
rendering his Chamber of Commerce
position. He would be given an able as
sistant capable of attending to the vast
amount of detail work he would not
be able to perform in his dual capacity.
Mr.. Farrell's personality, his train
ing and experience, fit him for the pro-
ject. Hopefully, because there is no
time to be lost in the southern compe-
tition for new industries, favorable
decision will not be delayed.

It's Nice To Tell About Your Ailment
Without SOMEBODY Beating You To 1t

boys laid me gently down on a cot
and wheeled me out to a waiting
ambulance. Those things ride
easily but the view from them is
not so good.
Well, just to show you about
that psychology I was talking
about somewhere up yonder, by
the time I'd been laid in the hos
pital bed and patted down by those
nice nurses and been told not to
smoke any cigarets, was begin
ming to wonder, myself.
Through the night, as I'd prop
myself up on pillow and try to
read, one of those nice nurses
would come in and say, "Now,
you can't read and you'll have to
lie down flat and, no, you can't
have a cigaret."
By morning I began to wonder
how my name would look in the
Star obituary column. Then they
started to pricking my finger for
blood. Then a nice-looking inferno
came in and said he'd like to have
the history of my case. I didn't
know the case had any history,
but he seemed to think so and be-
gan asking me all about my vari-
Gus component parts. He then be-
gan the humping all over again.

By JOHN SKIES

It's natural for everybody to
talk about his illness, with or with
out one.
The only trouble with me is that
when I get myself involved in a
nice hospital case and then get
out-with the help of lot Of nice
nurses, not to mention the doc
tors-and mingle with the folks
again, I'm always stopped in the
middle of my play for sympathy
by somebody telling me his trou-
bles.
After a short stay in James
Walker I figured it would be nice
to explain to whoever was or
wasn't interested what put me
there in the first place. But each
time I tried, whoever was talk
ing to started right in telling me
about the time he had his appen-
dix out.
So, I quit saying anything about
my disqualification and began re-
fleeing upon the psychological
aspects of illness. I'm beginning
to believe that fear has a great
deal to do with our diseases. That
and the natural human tendency
to want somebody to hold our
hands and say condoling words to
us.
Naturally, it was coincidental.
But the other day I wrote a piece
for the paper about wanting a per-
sonal doctor to do whatever
humping was necessary on my
lungs, ct cetera. That was when I
was saying I was against social
lied medicine.
Imagine, then, my surprise
when I found several very person
al doctors, not to mention nurses,
sWarming all over my chest and
humping away as if it were sort
OF a game.
And this particular illness of
mine just goes to show you how
solicitous people can be when one
of their fellow humans shows signs
OF coming down with something. I
was about to have dinner with
John Farrell, the new Chamber of
Commerce secretary, in the din
ing room presided over by my old
Duke friend, John Garrett.
To give you a p1ay-by-play ac-
count, I had just cut into a very
nice steak when something struck.
Just mentioning the matter-may-
be it was more than a mention
found myself dragged into a
hotel room and, quicker than YOU
can say angina pectoris, the doc
tor was going over my chest as il
ne expected to find gold.
When I said something like. it's
okay now, Doc, I think mi %
home, he gave me that aha-no-
you-won't routine and before T
knew much couple of colored

much time, such fabulous sums OF
money, to find how many more millions
can be killed and nations laid waste by
new methods of attack.
Cause For Alarm

Competitive bidding on public con-
tracts is so much a part OF business
procedure that it's omission is rare
Privately operated corporations do not
even buy stationery or order letter
heads printed without giving a number
of firms a chance to name their price.
Careful shoppers visit several stores
before purchasing something needed
by the household. It is hard to imagine
the head of family going to single
furniture store to furnish his house, or
a single draper or interior decorator.
How much less, then, is it conceiv-
able that city government, the largest
corporation of the community, upon
which rests the greatest necessity for
economic buying in the interest of the
people who must pay the bill, framing
specifications for any material or serv-
ice in such a way that only one manu-
facturer or dealer can comply with
them and all other manufacturers and
dealers are unable to compete. Yet this
is exactly what was done in drafting
and presenting specifications for Will
mington's necessary purchase of fire
alarm boxes.
It is frankly admitted before the
Citv Council that this is exactly what
was done, and when City Clerk J. R.
Benson presented his revision which
would have allowed other firms manu-
featuring fire alarm boxes to bid the
City manager, C. A. Nichols, declared
he was not satisfied with the changes,
although it is authoratively said they
would meet all requirements of fire un
derwriters, and through competition
would save the taxpayers considerable
expense.
The Council, at it's Wednesday meet
ing, postponed it's action and instructed
Mr.. Nichols, Mr.. Benson and the city
electrician, L. T. Garren, to compose
their differences before another meet
ing is held today. AS Mr.. Nichols and
Mr.. Garren are arrayed against Mr..
Benson, the odds seem to be against the
latter. That fact cannot possibly justify
favorable Council action on specifica-
tons which exclude competition.
The Star demands that they be
changed to permit competitive bidding.

Atomic Bomb Tests

The long heralded test Of atomic
bombs on naval craft to determine
their effectiveness and how they can
be used to cause the greatest damage
to enemy craft is finally announced
by the Navy to start in May.
When completed they may have
revolutionized future naval warfare
The target, which is to consist of
ninety-seven vessels ranging fr o m
battleships and large carriers to land
ing craft, are to be anchored off the
most northerly of the Marshall islands.
In the fleet marked for destruction will
be Japanese and German craft which
will afford opportunity to compare con-
struction and resistance with that of
our own ships.
Whether the tests will be conducted
in secret or other powers will be given
chance to know the results is still to
be determined. The project is strictly
American. AS such it would seem that
any conclusions should be held secret
at least for the present and divulged
only to United States allies in event of
a future war.
What impresses the layman par
ticularly is the tremendous cost the
experiments will involve. Probably all
ships in the fleet will be sent to the
bottom. Their cost probably would run
into the billions.
Now they are to be destroyed that
men may learn new methods of wag-
ing war and sacrificing human life in
such numbers as never were dreamed of
before.
1t may be necessary to know the
full power of the atomic bomb under
all conditions. At least that is the opin-
ion of the military establishment.
But it is great pity that mortal
man, whose span is short enough at
the best and whose accomplishments
are none too great in comparison with
his opportunities, should devote So

the center of your chest than on
the left side.
Well, this sort of thing kept up
until I didn't know what to think.
Pretty soon the heart specialist
thanked by two nurses, came in
rolling a machine on sort of a
wheel cart. The machine had long
wire attachments.
After the amenities, he attached
a wire to each of my wrists and
another to my ankle and then
started juggling gadgets on the
machine.
He was very pleasant about the
whole thing. Not once did he muir
muir darkly, "Aha!" I suppose he
found what he wanted.
This business was too much for
me, however. was sure by this
time I'd soon find me a nook in
the obituary column. I wanted to
call my Boss and tell him to
stretch all the points he could. I
even thought it was okay to keep
on wearing that tied-in-t he-back
gown they give you in the hospi-
tai. After all, what did it matter?
Then, the doctor came back.
Without so much as a glance at
my chest and no humping what
ever, he said:
well, you can go back on a
solid diet tomorrow. And you may
60 home. Just lay off the cigarets
and coffee. The cardiagram show

Those last words were all
wanted to hear. I started reaching
for my clothes right away.
Which just goes to show what
I'd figured in the first place: a
little bit of fear can do you more
harm than a CONSTRUCTED vascular
organ. Whatever that may be.
And, oh yes. I did get the
chance to tell about my failment.
That is, if you're down to here.
