CHEERFUL EARFUL. You've

hundreds of times, but did you ever
hear one that whistled Over There?
1t could happen if the bird was one
of Mrs. Hazel E. Hatchett's unusual
whistlers. For these are not common
songsters, and Hazel herself is no
ordinary woman.
Down in Ell Paso, Texas, Hazel has
built up the largest bird collection in
the Southwest She has top-f1ight
line of canaries of all types, plus such
lesser known entertainers as finches,
parakeets, ricebirds and cockateels.
The Hatchett tune-singers are
Gluke Rollers, a very old German
strain. Hazel's husband, Roger, has
charge of the singing lessons. He
chose 'tOver There" because it's a
simple melody, and he likes it.

Jeremiah" Bowles

We'll here we are at Jeremiah Bowles' Doomsday-the end of the wenday period within which Chester predicted "the cost of living will double
 Tn sne of Cheser's efforts to scare us right out of onr skins in spite of all OPA bureaucratic propaganda which promised us chaos and ruin they lost their 1obs propaganda which finally became offensive that Congress specifically refused money for it's continuance in spite of all this just what has happened?
 We'll for thing prices have gone up, Just as they had been going up while all privileged to buy what ever OPA was willing buy at whatever prices they were willing to let pay. Milk for example has gone up three cents quart according the New York City Depart ent of Markets That happens to be exactly the amount o government subsidies which paying before OPA was ended.
 Butter has gone up about eleven cents pound hve cents of the subsidies were paylng before anyway but it's still way below the old black market price and glory be, you actually buy now Eggs nave gone up about penny dozen Poultry IS up few cents pound Lamb legs and pork chops and porerhouse steaks are up price plentybut nowhere near Chestefs iVo and nowhere what you had for them in the black market BUT glory be again, buy them now In a most any market in town.
 Oh yes one other thing has happened since the OPA folded up. Word from Chicago is that operators o the black markets meat have lost than S1000O000 since price control ended July s because they tried to compete with legitimate packing pants That's no joke, son. even to the black market and that loss isn't potential ts In real hard That's bunch that to see oPA go out of business.
 Now frankly, sorry President Truman vetoed that OPA b bad as for it did control of rents and other items which still need attention But all the wild evil things which predicted by Bowes and Paul Porter somehow other don't seem to have happened All the figures they pulled off their cuffs were apparently nearly as phoney as their predictions.
 And so Chester don't hurry back from your vacation It doesn't look like there any work for you down in Washington just and rather think the Connecticut Democrats won't be able to find much for you to do next year either However, there's always the old advertising business Maybe can start up again for it looks as though there might be few automobiles and refrlgeraors sell and there might be enough food to go around of the food people might want to advertise

WHEAT LIES ON THE GROUND

(The Christian Science Monitor
 Once again Americas S railroad car supply and elevator space are insufficient to accommodate it's bumper wheat crop, and in some sections the red grain is being dumped on the ground. This is an embarrassment which may cause loss to the farmers and affect the supply for the nations which U.NR.RA. is seeking to feed One contributing element to this situa- ton is the huge concentration Of wheat at various points, made ready for shipment immediately upon cutting by the combine, or har- vester-t -thresher.
 Railroads, however would be able to move even this huge coneentra- tion of wheat had they been able to buy cars. During the war, notWith- standing their prosperity, the car riers were prevented from building up rolling stock because of war de- mands for steel and other materials. Strikes have slowed up postwar car building. As this years harvest moves northWard into Canada, the car shortage will be even more mo- ticeable. By another year, however, wartime earnings should find their way into cars enough to meet al- most any demand.

Investigations

WASHINGTON July "A (NEA) The Montana primary in which Judge Jeff Erickson defeated Bur- ton K. Wheeler for the Democratic nomination for U. S. Senator probably reached the bottom levels Of U s. politics That's not giving any odds to the Bilbo campaign in Mississippi, either.
 US. Senate special committee to investigate Senatorial campaign expenditures sent special coun sel to Montana to investigate the campaign. But that it's and Wheeler has been defeated an in vestgation of the investigation is under way set the record straight
 On the one hand, Wheeler's opposition dis graced by publication of SanderouS book entitled 'The Plot Against Amerca-Senator Wheeler and the Forces Behind Him. It published by John E Kennedy of Missoua, former secretary to eX-Con- gressman Jerry O'Connell It written for pay by New York hack named David George Kin Where the money to finance the work came from has still to be determined.
 The book is vile collection of old gossip, ing Wheeler of being junior partner to Horse thief Kelly" the Darling of the Liberty League and Alice Longworth," the Hitler of Montana" and the "Nazi Napoleon of America" Among its more sordd passages is statement that the corps of Adolf Hit Ter has been brought to life and occupies the residence at 1900 Pennsylvania Avenue.
 On the other hand, Wheeler apparently induged in a good share Of mud-slnging himself charging that Eastern Jews and money from outside the state were being marshaed 10 defeat hinl, by Communists who take orders from Russia.

OUR ENDANGERED ELMS
CNew York Herald-Tribune)

(NeW York Herald-Irlbune)
 It was only sixteen years ago that the first case of Dutch elm disease in this country was discovered in Ohio. So rapidly has the disease-a fungus disease spread by an elm bar beetle-increased that Montclair learns this week, as the result of an inspection made by the New Jersey State Department of Agriculture, that it is faced with the loss of 4,0O0 infected trees. As the felling and burning of each diseased tree is the only known method of control, and as it is estimated this will cost $100 a tree, Montclairs A ,00O inhabitants have before them a possible bill of S400 ,00O.
 The Dutch elm disease gained it's name in Holland, where it appeared in 1919. The fatal fungus is thought to have reached this country in elm tree logs from Europe. To date nine states have had infected trees. This and the situation in Montclair en- phasizes how serious is the threat to Americas most lovely tree. New York States Department of Agruculture and Markets reports that in the

HONOR TO A GREAT NEGRO
Hartford Times


 Unanimous action by the House of Representative authorizing the minting of a memorial half dollar to commemorate the ideals and teachings of Booker T. Washington no doubt will be followed by Sen ate approval That accomplished 5,000O0O of the coins will be struck and will be sold to the Booker T Washington Birthplace Memorial Inc, of Franklin County, Virginia That organization proposes to resell like coins for $l each, the profit to be used in building trade and farm school for Negroes at the fa- nous educators birthplace.
 The Houses approval of the plan emphasizes the interest which is be- ing taken in better educational fa- cilities for Negroes. and in recog- milton of the races ability to take care of it's own needs, given the op- portunity. Only a few months age Booker T. Washington was admit ted to the Hall of Fame, the first Negro to be so honored. He will always be remembered for his pro- motion of the idea of self-help and for his conviction that vocationa. education was as important as training for the professions. Thous- ands of Negroes have benefited by Washington's inspirational work.
 In all probability Booker T Washington is the only men of his race to be honored with the mintine of United States coin in his mem- ory. Negroes may be proud of this honor, and can be depended on te use it to the advantage of the race

A Real Boogeyman

Has our appreciation the dangers of atomic energy entered the realm of legend and fantasy Have we forgotten that the atomic bomb weapon might day be turned and we, humans just vulnerable to the horrible and terrifying fate of the inhabitants of Hro shmo and NagasaN?
 There never be another war ot decisive victory That say whose finish reflects hope and and of life The next time, death IS guar anteed
 Let US quote leading and learned scientists Quicker than sight the atomic bombs will descend you super warheads in radio controlled V-2 rockets whz zing down ton Waterbury, at $500 miles an hour.
 "The explosion will come unexpectedly. You will have forgotten the bomb forgotten the errors of war You will wake carefree morning and not live to see the bed again that night You will have died from the con- cussion from the deadly may have just disappeared in cloud of smoke voatzed by the in tense heat.
 battleelds There will be soldiers, brass bands no heroes It will be you the civilians who will give up lives When the blow falls you will probably be in your homes with your children and loved Death will prob ably be swift, but certainly horrible"
 These are the of the leading scientists They propaganda or talk They the utterance of the who gave creation the atomic weapon and who possess intimate knowledge of its frghtfu probabilities Men like Dr. Harold C. trey of the atomic energy specialists who developed the bomb and who pubcay wrote T m Frightened Man
 The very young and the feeble and old will die in the The bombings of London Warsaw, Berlin, Mos and others during the but preudes in a minor key will be the civilians who will die by the mil lions, unarmed, undefended.
 Yet with this background of fearful knowledge the members of the House of Congress have emascuated the McMahon Senate bill for civilian control of atomic The House bill would provide for military control of the development and use of atomic energy.
 The military men know little or nothing of atomic energy! It the scientists-he civilian scentss-who possess the final knowledge Why do the House members dare to amper with the dangerous potentaties of this issue? Why military permitted to sa]ve their egos by insisting that they be given control?
 The question to be decided is simple: military versus civilian control of atomic Every intelligent citizen of Waterbury and America must have opinion on this question!

 Their first act to pick special committee counsel one Robert B. Barker of Knoxville, Tenn. He was former Dies Committee investigator who quit that work to become counsel for Georgia Con- gresSman E. E. Coxs long Winded nquisition against the Federal Communications Commission.
 The story that Wheeler picked Barker for the Montana investigation is denied by Barker. He says he had met Wheeler prior to his recent trip to Montana Barkers story is that he recommended to Senator Johnson by several members of the House for whom he had worked
 Warfare immediately developed between Barker and clerk Grace Johnson. Grace reported that 2 lawyer named Riley Shanks had been interviewed by Senator Eender for the job of counsel to investigate the Montana primary
 Shanks affiliated with the Washington office of Attorney Joseph B. Keenan. Keenan was reported to be lawyer for Anaconda Copper interests in Mon- Barker off to Montana with two detectives borrowed from the Washington D. C., police force.
