Honey is a nutritious food,

Staten Ferry Fire

The Department of Marine and

at noon with four boats putting in
at pier on the north side of the

A fresh crew of firemen came on

stubbornly ate through the highly

Goodness Develops
Between President
And Pau|eyFoes
BY the Associoted Pres,

A marked political GOODNESS is re-
ported to have developed between
President Truman and Senators who
successfully fought his nomination
of Edwin w. Pauley as Undersecre-
tary Of the Navy.
Capitol Hill is wondering whether
the strained relations will be car
ried over into the political CAM
paigns this year and in 1948 when
some OF those nvolved-including
Mr.. Truman-may be candidates.
Evidence that the President has
not forgotten, or forgiven. the battle
put up against his nominee came
to light in letter Senators said he
wrote to Senator Tobey, Republican,
OF New Hampshire. Senator Tobey
led the opposition to Mr.. Pauley's
confirmation.
Goodness Develops.
In response to queries, Presidential
Press Secretary Charles G. Ross told
reporters Mr. Truman wrote SEN
ator Tobey letter some time ago"
He wouldn't say what was in it
however.
While Mr.. Truman apparently has
not directed at others the sharp criti-
cism he is said to nave voiced of SEN
ator Tobey and former Secretary of
the Interior Harold l.. Ickes in that
letter, some Senators have said
privately that they feel the White
House welcome mat was removed
so far as they are concerned after
their stand against Mr.. Pauley be-
came known.
Vigorous Language.
Democrats generally avoided max
ing their views public when the ap-
pointment was pending, but two of
them-Senators Pepper of Florida
and Stewart of Tennessee-spoke
out for withdrawal of Mr.. Pauley' S
name. Since then Senator Pepper
has been publicly critical of the
Presidents proposal for emergency
strike control legislation.
Senators who saw the letter to
Senator Tobey told reporter Mr.
Truman wrote in vigorous language
that the New Hampshire Senator
and Mr.. Ickes were responsible for
the Presidents subsequent failure to
induce some high-type men to take
Federal posts because of the fear OF
similar fights against them. The
letter was said to have described the
