MONKEYSHINES

JUNGLE LIFE. In Miami's back
yard there are 10 acres of tropical
vegetation that several hundred mon
keys call home. Here they roam free
while the human beings are Gagged.
Guardian angel of this simian
jungle is tall, handsome Joe Du Mond,
artist and naturalist. While working
as commercial artist in New York
he started collecting monkeys. He
would save his pennies, buy sick ones
and then nurse them back to health.
When the Du Monds' apartment
became crowded. Joe packed up the
monkeys, his wife and two infant sons
and made for Connecticut.
There the monkeys took to the
trees and set up house. Joe started
thinking of colony where untamed
monkeys could live as uninhibited as
in their native Malayan jungles.
ON THE MOVE. So he packed up
again, and set out for Florida where
he bought a clump of jungle, built
house for his family and turned the
monkeys loose. Thus began the unique
colony.
Nothing is too good for Joe's
monkeys. Last year he even built
concrete swimming pool for them.
They dive in from height of eight
feet, swim underwater and top off
the afternoon with a sun bath.
Joe still wonders at their almost
human characteristics. Monkeys fuss
over their sick like motherly old
ladies'. Their tempers are short, but
they're quick to make up. They
make doting fathers, wrestle play

YOUNG GRAVEYARD. A New
York reader writes us that he attend
ed a crowded ball game at Yankee
Stadium and learned a sharp lesson in
mass psychology. He was watching a
freckle-faced young hawker trying to
get himself and his basket through
jam-packed throng of fans in pas
sageway. "Gangway, gents!" he kept
shouting, but nobody paid the slight
est attention. Finally he yelled,
"Gangway - watch out for the mus
tard" All at once everyone clutched
his jacket protectively and shrank
back to let the youngster past.
Our correspondent noted with de-
light that the boy wasn't selling hot
dogs at all - just peanuts.

visitors, including scientists from all
over the world, have dropped in to
stare at Joe's furry friends and be
stared at in turn.
A few years ago the monkeys
began to resent the sightseers' intru-
sion. Either the monkeys or the
visitors would have to be Gagged. Said
Joe: "I'll cage the people first" He
promptly enclosed the jungle trail
and left the monkeys free to romp
and peer at their barricaded callers.

Galloway testified at the trial
that he and a friend, Felix H. Payne
Jr., of Kansas City, bought tickets
after they had been invited by Lii
onel Hampton whose orchestra was
playing for the dance. Cab and
Payne were stopped and told by
Todd that the hall did not admit
Negroes.
Payne told the court he was
pushed by the officer and when he
recovered he saw Todd beating Cal
loway with a revolver.
Todd says he refunded their mon
ey and ordered them to leave. Ac-
cording to his statement, Payne
struck at him. Following this, Gallo

Todd charged.

Other Pla-Mor employees allegedly
stopped the fight. City policemen
were called, and after treatment at
General Hospital Number 2, Payne
and Galloway were taken to police
headquarters where their state
ments were taken.
At the 10 As intermission period,
the incident had been relayed to Lii

featured at the dance. Hampton re-
fused to continue playing. William
Wittig, manager Of Pla-Mor, told
1,500 dancers their admissions of
S1.25 would be returned. The crowd
danced to juke box music while re-
funds were being made.
Galloway and Payne said they
bought tickets to avoid trouble and
that they came to the dance only at
the personal invitation of Hampton.

Open Debate Urged
On World Hot Spots
By Benjamin Y. Cohen

Benjamin v. Cohen, State Depart
ment counselor, said last night open
discussion Of "hot spots" in world
affairs is better than letting them
"fester underneath the surface"
He said there's always some risk
of injured feelings when live issues
are discussed frankly" but empha-
sized that frank speech doesn't
mean that the various viewpoints
can't be reconciled."
His remarks, made during an NBC
University of the Air" radio pro-
gram analyzing the recent United
Nations meetings in London, were in
reference to the heated Security
Council debates over controversial
issues affecting Iran, Indonesia,
Greece, Syria and Lebanon.
They underlined a change in State
Department policy toward more
plain speaking on critical issues with
Russia.
Chairman Bloom Of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee, member
of the American delegation to the
UNO meeting, participated in the
radio discussion with Mr.. Cohen
and Alger Hiss, director Of the State
Departments Office Of Special Po-
litical Affairs. ... 80.
Mr.. Bloom agreed it is "a good
thing" to bring international disputes
into the open now. 'If they wait
and shoulder" he said, "fear will
result"
He recalled that Soviet Vice For
eign Commissar A. Y. Vishinsky
said near the end of the UNO meet
ing "a better understanding Of our
common interests" had come out Of
the clashes there.
Mr.. Cohen admitted the Security
Council accomplished little in the
way of definite settlement Of the
issues raised in London, but said he
believed in most cases the situation
was improved as a result of the dis
customs which cleared the air."
Location of the United Nations
headquarters in the Greenwich
Stamford area of New York State
and Connecticut will involve no
question of transfer of sovereignty
over the area, which will remain
,art of the United States and the
tates concerned, Mr.. Cohen said.
lie added that residents of the area
will get fair price for property
taken over and will not lose any of
their local rights.
Mr.. Hiss said he believed all rec
ords have been broken by the speed
with which the United Nations Or
ganization was established, recall
ing that only little over "a year
ago the Yalta Big Three Confer
ence set the date for the San Fran
cisco meeting which drew up the
UNO Charter.

ABOARD CARRIER MIDWAY
AT SEA, Mar. "A Helldiver at
tempting q landing on the Midway
spun into the ocean today and car
ried its pilot down with 1t.
It was the carriers first flying
casualty In about 5000 takeoffs and
landings. The name of the pilot
was withheld in line with the Navy
policy Of first notifying survivors.
The planes radio gunner, Harry
D. Brumbaugh, 81, Of North Fork,
Calf, was rescued Immediately by
the destroyer Ware which was trail
ing In the wake of the Midway for
just such an emergency. Brum-
baugh freed himself from the plane
as it broke up in landing and was
sitting In his rubber life raft when
the Ware came alongside.
There was no occasion to use the
special rescue basket with which
the destroyers have been equipped
for tests during the cold weather
expedition to the Arctic region, for
which the Midway and its escorting
ships are bound.
The pilot had been given a wave
of because Of an unsatisfactory ap-
proach and was circling for another
pass at the deck when his left wing
hit the water.
The carrier and It's three escort
ing destroyers were about 300 miles
out Of Norfolk at the end of the
first "a hours, sailing toward Davis
Strait at. the edge OF the Arctic
where tests will be made of equip
ment and ships under frigid condi-

100 Shy Of Complement.
However, the huge carrier sailed
from Norfolk yesterday nearly 100
shy OF It's authorized total with the
shortage primarily among engi-
neering personnel. What may be
more important is that fewer than
one-fourth Of the men have been
aboard since the ship was commits
stoned six months ago.
Approximately 1900 men have
left the ship since the commission
pennant was raised, most OF them
headed for civilian life.
The result Is that much effort on
this expedition to the Arctic to see
what big carrier can do IN freez-
ing conditions will be devoted to
training the crewmen for their jobs.
It means that some troubles encoun-
tered on the trip, such as starting
aircraft engines in low temperatures,
will be magnified by inexperience.

Our home was on Otter Creek, three miles from Flat and to reach school each mCrn- ing my brother and I would take oil in dog sled during the chill pre- dawn hours. I can imagine no school day memories more pleasant than those of Alaskan children
 Spotting a rabbit or some other small animal on the trail and giv- ing chase 90 to nothing in a dog sled is a wonderful way to preface a day at school, said the speaker.
 Since there was no high school in Flat at the time of Mrs. Rivers grammar school graduation. he at tended high school in Franklin High at Seattle. During hisl school vacation he worked in cannerles along the Alaska coast.
