Child Care responsibility

AT about the same time the House
was voting large deficit yesterday
In the District appropriation. bill for
next year the Senate District Com
mittee decided to report a bill con-
tinuing the operation under the
Board OF Public Welfare (Which
opposes it, of the wartime child
care centers. There are many things
wrong with this bill. For one thing,
it completely ignores the views of
the municipal officials responsible
for providing the operating funds.
1t Is highly discriminatory in the
Dement'S it confers, at public expense,
on a small group. 1t is dangerous
In the principle it represents
dangerous, that is, for a community
already overburdened with RESPONSE
bilities it is incapable of discharging.
There Is something very shoddy in
the proposition Of loading this un-
dertaking, disguised one minute as
an educational and the next as a
welfare project, on a local govern
ment whose care of the really help
less child wards to whom it owes a
genuine obligation is a matter of
reproach to every decent pan and
woman who lives here. It suggests
the irresponsible act of the slovenly
individual who buys a new auto
mobile when he is unable to afford
decent food and shelter for his
own children.

All Part of the Season

BY far the most significant mean
ing to be read into Senator Tobey's
Macedonian cry and President Tru-
mans biting retort to same is that
the weather has been very warm
for June. In the heat and the hu-
midity observers must be on guard
against mirages that look like seri-
Gus political explosions when they
really are nothing at all, or at least
not something calling for heavy
think-pieces full of alarmist "ohs"
and "ahs" about the state of the
Union.
If one has some New England
chickens to worry about, it is per-
fectly natural to give voice to a
Macedonian yell. especially on a
muggy day. BY the same token, if
one is President of the United States
when the weather is hot, one is en-
titled to answer the yell a bit acidly.
A President has to worry about more
than New England chickens. He has
to worry about chickens everywhere.
He has to worry. too, about people.
He has to worry about appointing
able men to office, about problems
like imitation and the OPA. about
the whole of America and the world,
about almost everything. Accord
lngly, II somebody addresses him In
Macedonian fashion during a humid
hour, and if that somebody used to
be an old gadfly friend of his in
the Senate, a President must have
a kind OF compelling human desire
to let OF little steam. particularly
II he expects that it will be kept in
confidence.

Memory of Suffering
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
In the June "a edition of The Star you
printed letter entitled Food for Amer
icans," signed by Mrs. B. v. Milan. She
either has never been abroad and seen
the living conditions of the rest of the
world or is a very hard person-which I
doubt. would like to give her one ex-
ample of living conditions overseas. In
Ireland during the winter of 1943, I saw
many small boys with no shoes on and
with threadbare coats. AS stood watch
ing them, had on Navy pea-coat and
still shivered. My shipmates and I
took many of these boys down to our
mess hall, and they ate the food that we
gave them with rapidity that would
amaze even the starving Americans"
that Mrs. Milan mentions in her letter.
have seen too many fat, wen-fed
Americans to be laboring under the mis-
apprehension that the American people
are all starving to death. And if Mrs.
Milan thinks that we are being severely
punished for winning the war she
should ride out to Bethesda Naval Hos
pital or to the Walter Reed Army Hos
pital and see just who is doing the
suffering. BART BOWLEs.

This and That
By Charles E. Trace,Uell
ARLINGTON Va.

ARLINGTON, Va.
will you kindly tell me if I am cor
rect IN thinking this songbird is a mock
ingbird?
The bird perches in tree almost 100
feet away and sings nightly, almost in
cessantly from about II o'clock until
am
1 retire late, so hear it about 1:3o
O'Clock or later. and as I am a light
sleeper, now and then till near 4 am.
Others in the neighborhood have been
awakened all through the night by its
loud joyous tones.
We have recently moved here, but
nearby resident tells me in the two
years OF his residence here the bird has
sung all the season most of the night.
I cannot see it but the VARYING
snatches OF song correspond to what I
nave known as the song of the mock
ingbird.
Thank you for whatever information
you can give from this rather scant de-
scription.
The bird failed to sing for the first
song. "Sincerelv. r. M So"
Yes, this is the mockingbird, best of
the night singers.
IL Is not generally realized, perhaps,
tnat many species do bit of night
singing, now and then.
Most of the sparrows, of which 10
dinerent species come to the District
OF Columbia and vicinity, chirp softly
to themselves.
The light sleeper among humans
Will be able to hear them.
The .catbird is another fine night
singer, but his song is not as persistent
as that of the mocker.
He likes to do most of his singing bv
daylight, and often fools people into
believing he is mockingbird. In fact
some ardent catbird fans" will tell YOU
that ne is far better singer than the
more famous mocker, and also a more
humorous one, often breaking off his
be$ songs to interpolate the sound of
an electric saw or something else he has
heard.
1t may be presumed that most of the
persistent night singers of the flowing
sort are mockingbirds, however,
Iney sing that way when the mother
BIRD is lncubating the eggs and quit
for time while both are feeding the
young.
When those gaping bills are going it
wide all day, the parent mockers have
their bills full, and all they can do to
keep them filled, to say nothing of their
own food needs.
That is why it is most helpful for the
human bird friend to put out raisins
at this time.
Nothing is more acceptable to the
mocker parents. While they still must
rely on small worms and insects for
the main bulk of the necessary protein
to make the young birds grow, they
find that the raisins not only give
themselves some food, but also provide
minerals, vitamins and iron for the
babies. You see, birds are very up-to-
date. They have known all about the
vitamins for centuries, whereas old slow
poke man scarcely began to under
stand them until 1914, when Casimir
Funk made his first discoveries.
So, put out raisins. The powers that
be" haven't heard about bird feeding
yet, and 50 have not banned the sale
of them.
Do not let the idea that the birds
can get along by themselves in hot
weather frighten you into not putting
out food for them If you want to do it.
