Talking Mynoh Brought to Zoo
In Animal Shipment From Asia

The Zoo has a score of new crea-
tures-Several of them rare importa-
tons from India.
One of the most. welcome to Zoo
enthusiasts, in the opinion of DR..
William A. Mann, director. is a
Nepalese mynah bird, one of thetalk-
ing mynahs. The Zoos last talk
ing mynah died about six years ago,
and queries from the public have
been many about when the Zoo
would get another.
Most familiar remark of the last
bird was, How about the appro-
priation?' question always put to
visiting Congressman - or any one
else. Malcolm Davis, assistant head
keeper, said it takes several months
to teach the birds to speak.
After about a month. he'll be
used to the cage" Mr.. Davis said,

quite tousled after his long trip
from India. IN teach him the
alphabet first, then have him beg
for food" he explained, and soon
he'll pick up phrases-if he's going
to talk at ALL
Like parrots, mynahs don't al
ways talk, Mr.. Davis said. Unlike
parrots, though, the mynahs speak
in a low. masculine voice, and they
aren't imitators as much as par
rots." Four pied mynahs, small
er and voiceless, are in a cage near
their laxative brother.
Other new birds include two
pastors, Asiatic birds that resemble
starlings; a streaked barbet. from
Asia; rare scimitar- billed bab-
bier, a South American bird, and

according to Mr.. Davis.
The other Indian arrivals include
two splitting cobras and a Russell
viper, safely residing in the serpent
house. DR.. Mann pointed out two
finger marks" near the heads of
the cobras, placed on them, accord
ing to fable, by Buddha as bless
ing.
The story goes that Buddha went
to sleep under a tree, and as the
sun lifted. it shone in his eyes" DR..
Mann said, so cobra spread his
hood and shielded him from the
sun. When Buddha aWoke he
touched the cobra on the hood and
blessed him. Of course, I wasn't
there he commented, but there
are the marks, anyway"

room reputation of Hitler-before

be circulated among young Germans
in an effort to right some of the
wrongs he said he committed in
teaching them to follow the Fue-
hrer's Nazi ideals
American officials said the idea is
under consideration and may be
adopted as another step in the null
tiple problem of re-educating Ger

It all seems plain enough, but no
body apparently is willing to say what
it means. Chiang's greatest response
bility, to wit, a settlement with the
communists, has not been met. Is it that
he realizes he is incapable Of effecting
this settlement and so decides to use
his advancing age Che is now 60) as
an excuse to step out and leave the
burden to an Assembly which has not
had time to acquire a working know
ledge of conditions or experience to deal
with them? Or is he confident that
the Assembly is actually able to deal
successfully with China's difficult sit
uation?
Time, of course will give the answers,
but it would seem that with the coun-
try unsettled by internal strife and with
out a foreign policy Chang has still
a job of work to do.

Those Japanese Islands

dated islands in the Pacific by the Unit
ed States for the mathematics of bases
as a safeguard against future Pearl
Harbors is, a reasonable program. Out
right acquisition Of the islands is some
thing else again.
They must come under control of
the United Nations with the United
States merely occupying them under
United Nations trusteeship. This was
clearly the understanding when the
project was first brought up. Conditions
since have not changed the original pur-
pose.
Now there are rumors that the
United States plans to give mere lip
service to the United Nations trustee
ship while in effect annexing the islands
and governing them. This is so con-
trary to United States non-imperialistic
principles it is hard to believe that any
influence could be brought to bear
through which the government would
alter the established policy. The United
States has never entertained empiric
ideas on the basis that other govern
ments have, Great Britain, France and
Holland in particular.
We have not sought to exploit islands
When it became necessary
to assume responsibility for the Philip
pines, it was not with the thought of
exploiting them but of developing them
for the F%ilipinos and always with the
purpose to turn them back to the people
when they had become capable of safe
and sound self government.
If it is true that any section of our
national officials are plotting to have
the islands that formed the outer ram.
parts Of Japan come under United States
control, with the United Nations hold.
ing only a theoretical trusteeship, it
is time the President made our posi-.
ton clear. If he favors the proposal so
often heard through the press for their
virtual annexation, let him say so open
ly. If it is only a group of underlings
in office who are promoting the prop
.osition, let him expose them. The
people are entitled to know the truth,
they may raise their voice against
such IN un-American proposal.

High-Wage Boomerang

G. F. Ashby, president of the Union
Pacific Railroad, has issued a signifi-
cant announcement. He says the com.
pany's payroll will have to be reduced
by five thousand employees because of
declining earnings and increasing costs
of operation.
Mr.. Ashby added that the roads
earnings are down 3O.1 per cent from
$3.50, O0O, 900 a year ago, and wages are
up $25, 900 1000 in the same period of
time. High wages can bring about a
situation that can lead to unemploy-
ment," he said.
What has been decided by the Union
Pacific is what other major industries
Will have to decide. They cannot meet
inflated payrolls or endure strikes with
their business falling off at the same
time.
For years, while the new deal was
encouraging labor to make unreasonable
wage demands, economists have been
telling up that the unions were slowly
Killing the goose that laid the golden
egg. They gained little attention, but
now we can see in the statement by the
Union Pacific's president that they
were correct all the time.
The Union Pacific has but made the
start. It's action inevitably will lead to
similar action by the nations other
great corporations which are the chief
employers of labor.

ly. The State Guard which took over
when the National Guard was called
to active service did its duty well dur
ing the war but the need now is for
units established on the regular Army
formation to be trained and equipped
for any emergency.
Adjutant General John Van B. Nets
has contemplated an anti-aircraft bat
talon with a radar unit and in addition
one infantry company. The Generals
plan has met with the approval of local
military circles with the exception OF
the infantry company.
It is not apparent that this unit has
run up against active opposition. Rather,
it is reported, the attitude is more
one Of Indifference. The feeling, is
easily understood. AS a coastal city,
%anti-aircraft is the branch of the armed
service most prominently in most minds
because of it's need in event of enemy
attack.
At the same time it would be un.
wise to overlook the advantages of hav-
ing an infantry company, two of which
would be for the suppression of riots,
should riots be precipitated, and for op-
posing enemy landing forces if war
should come. We may be sure that
if there is another war, the United
States will be the foes first and chief
objective and that the initial attack
will be made with greater speed and
more power than the japanese sneak
attack on Pearl Harbor.
Because Of Wilmington's position it
would be among the first areas to come
under hostile fire. There would be great
need for foot fighters, if only one conn.
pany, Of the ground and ready for
action.
If an infantry unit should be op-
posed, from the viewpoint of housing
or drill ground, the problem would not
be difficult. For example, there is no
important use for the Marine hospital
until the city's auditorium project is
started. It could serve the unit well
as a home and the adjoining Robert
Strange. playground could be used as
a drill ground without interfering with

ON THE JUDGES BENCH.
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS

Just to be sitting on the bench,
alongside my old friend, the coun-
ty judge, gave me a new attitude
toward the case that was being
tried, a trifling automobile acct.
dent. The cost of the procedure
to the county far exceeded the
damage to the cars.
Yet justice itself is priceless.
The courts elaborate efforts to
ascertain the truth inspired a new
and awesome ems of the sancti-
ty of right in a civilized COM
munity.
"Shall not the Judge Of all the
earth do right" In the atmos-
phere of that courtroom l had a
fresh glimpse of the essential
nature Of God as a Judge. The
belief has grown dim in modern
consciousness. Yet Divine justice
is the very groundwork Of all
other qualities; ever love is found
ed on justice; and, in a higher
conception, justice is an express
sica Of love.
