This and That
By Charles E. Truce,ueU.

n Cdlcuuar OF DlTQ arrivals Tor wash
ington and vicinity follows.
These are all resident birds, migra-
tors which come here to nest
Scores of migrating species, particu-
larly many of the warblers, merely fy
through the local region on their way
farther North. None Of these strict
migrants is included in this list.
The calendar:

above are average dates Sometimes the
first of group of birds will come in
several days ahead of others, but will
be seen by few persons.
The wood thrush, official bird of the
District of Columbia-a wonderful
choice-often does not arrive until April
% in our neighborhood.
Many marvellous species are among
those listed.
Who can find a better than the cat
bird he of the odd voice? The catbird
is one of the real princes of the Ameri-
can bird world. He is gray, with black
cap. Sometimes he is confused with the
mockingbird, but there is little real re-
semblance.
The indigo bunting is another beauty.
He is the fellow who, at little dis
tance, resembles bit of the paper
which is used to wrap around absorbent
cotton. His mate is plain brown bird
The scarlet tanager is red with black
wings. The red has an electric some
thing entirely different from the color
of the cardinal, one of the birds which
remain here the year around.
The tiny hummingbird weighs about
half an ounce, but makes a very long
journey from Panama to come to us.
This is one bird perhaps found more
often in the city than the suburbs.
Any one can have hummers who will
plant petuniaS, either in the yard or
in window box 1t is always one of
the best sights of bird life to see hum
mingbird stand still in front of a
blossom, its wings going so fast they
can scarcely be seen.
The Maryland yellow-th is the
small yellow bird which has a cute black
mask across its face. Once this is seen,
its Identification is unmistakable.
The yelloW-throat is seen mostly in
shrubbery, favorite being the althea
Watch for this one in such situations.
There have been an unusual number
OF cowbirds In Washington and vicinity
this spring. Since this is the only black
bird with brown head, 1t is easily
identified especially when it is noted
that 1t Is walker, too.

for the Barrymore brothers. Up to
the last he continued to be q master
factor in the world he served. He
will be remembered as a force for
progress in the department of lit

he also will be remembered as a
valiant spirit who we'll merited the

now raise. with good deal of reason,
the question of British and American
influence in nominally independent
countries. Greece will be a critical bone
of contention.
The election just held there showed
moderate rightist majority The left
ist parties, which staged small shooting
insurrection after the liberation and
almost killed Winston Churchill as he
was leaving his hotel, ordered their fol-
lowers to refrain from voting.
The Greek election fits we'll into
British foreign policy-at least into the
policy which Attlee inherited from
Churchill. 1t may not fit the ideas
now gaining ground in the Labor party
that Mr.. Bevin should do something
to differentiate himself from Eden and
Halifax.
British interests in Greece are his
toric, as well as immediate. Ever since
Lord Byron went to Greece with his
songs of liberty and died there, England
has held that Greece is it's special sphere
OF influence. The reason for this is not
historical or poetical, however. The
Greek peninsula is one of the Mediter-
ranean pillars-lise Gibraltar, Malta
and Cyprus - which overshadow the
route to Suez. Another big power in
Greece would be an almost intolerable
threat to Britain. When Hitler entered
the Balkans the only country which
Britain tried to save was Greece. Britain
was unsuccessful then, but was able to
Iberate Greece toward the end.

Soviet Russia, aiming at an exit from
the Black Sea, would like a favorable
Greek government. 1t Is not clear that
the insurrection year or more ago was
directed by Russia. But 1t is clear that

Readers Discuss L. n.

| To the Editor of The Star:
You no doubt will be deluged with
letters of approval concerning your
beautiful editorial appearing in The
Star for April 5, calling public atten-
ton to U. N, officially adopted by the
United States as the alphabetically alb
breviated nickname for that body, or is
it council or perhaps league. or what
have you-except organization?
! Since this electrical age makes short
shrift OF chores to be done, 1 presume
it is only fitting that all names be re-
named according to first letter alpha
betical application of each word con-
tanned in the full name The past IL
years gave birth to so many such names
beginning with NRA through UNRRA
that their population has increased to
a point Of popularity. So be it. We
adopt it.
1nasmuch as I am thoroughly in ac-
cord with your statements regarding
U. N. and since we must have an in
itialed name, I herewith join with, no
doubt, other name submitters and offer
a beautiful name-not fully unlike U.
NJ, but far far more useful, pleasant,
worthy and really American, albeit not
so phonetic and perhaps not so agree
able to some foreign powers but &C
ceptable by all-UNCLE.
Sir, what does that word stir in your
mind? You are absolutely right. That's
us.
How do we alphabetically get this
wonderful name? That is caparatively
simple. To wit:
United Nations Council, League Etc:
United Nations Council, Legal Entity;
United Nations Committee of Lofty
Evolution. Take your pick But every
one loves Uncle.

To the Editor of The STAR
In answer to your announcement of
U. N. as a name, think, in way, it is
rather appropriate. After knocking the
H out of Hun" the result is UN.
Psychologically, UNO is not better
name. 1t suggests that you know some
thing that I don't know. We are ac-
customed to listening to you know and
I know" even though we don't know.
I do agree with you that it is in
conceivable that anything named UN
can promise peace and happiness to a
weary world Whatever they do, it will
be our UN-doing. JUST FOR FUN.

sistance, | am definitely in favor
of legislation that will establish a
minimum rather than maximum
of fifty dollars per month. As

is one of the definite points Of
my program if elected to the leg

pledge myself to this cause as l
have to other points previously
expressed in this column, all of
which have placed human rights
above property rights. l feel that
in entering our first postwar leg

enjoy must be made secure for
the future, and your vote for me

help to make these things both
permanent and secure.
