Turns In 3,424 Pounds
In Wastepaper Drive

One of the greatest collections
OF waStepaper in many months was
turned in yesterday in The Evening
Star-PTA salvage campaign when
50,580 pounds were picked up.
Among the collections of half a
ton or more was one of 1924 pounds
at the Woodbridge School, a mark
which the school expects to exceed
by a large margin next week, when
the collection proceeds will be
turned over to the Junior Red Cross.
An intensive drive is being con-
Quoted this week to accumulate
large quantities of wastepaper
which will be taken to the school
and collected next Tuesday.
Noyes and Randle Highlands
Schools, which have joined the
salvage a Child movement, also
expect large collections next week,
the proceeds of which will be turned
over to the support of war orphan
IN Europe. 1t is estimated that SIS
a month per child is required for
this purpose.

We are headed sor an economic

silk and fish.
Once we start supplying Japanese
mills with raw cotton. on the as.
sumption that the manufactured
output will be used for local dry
goods in Japan. .he willy Nippon
ese, bowing and smiling to civilian
control officers will. behind their
backs, resort to smuggling II neces-
sary to export small quantities OF
piece goods to Korea, Manchuria.
China and the Philippines.
Raw silk. when Japanese farms
are again producing mulberry
leaves on which the silkworms can
feed, will be channeled to Pennsyl'
yania and New Jersey factories
which are already being reconver.-
ed from parachute manufacturing
and the production OF special war
goods.
The big fish game OF the Pacific
basin will involve oil, Diesel en-
gines, floating canneries and ships.
Unless they are watched day and
night, japanese ships will become
a coast guard. then the boats will
develop into small vessels capable
of long distance cruising.
Without a stern guard these In.
ternational fishery highwaymen
will attempt to sneak into the wa
ters off India, off Mexico and INTO
American and Canadian areas OF
the North Pacific.
The braHen Japanese will plead
with American economic study
groups for permission to fish In our
watersS'to Feed the hungry people
OF Japan" They will not admit
that the waters around japan are
sufficient for fish catches to feed
the japanese people.
For the record, submit what l
know TO be a fact; that major pre-
war Japanese fishing companies
were controlled by a Manchurian
puppet company headed by Tokyo
and Osaka businessmen. The fish
caught by their employees went TO
the United States. Mexico. Chile
and England in trade and for cash
with which the Japanese could buy
war materials. The catch did not
20 to the japanese people.
Lately. Japanese operators have
suggested. In an effort to regain
their great fishing empire, that
they use our Victory ships tc catch
our fish In our waters, can the
crab meat In cur boats and unload
the product on the American mar
ket-duty-free!
All Of this, mint you, comes from
a people who have no sense OF war
guilt or respect for International
fishery treaties.

then sell the goods on the Ameri.

Union labor representatives at the
meeting surprised the willy. Osaka
merchants. who were told they
could expect no such deal that
would play cheap labor against Am
erican workers.
At that time. however. the Japan.
ese did not propose to use the
American flag. Recently, In Tokyo.
the audacious suggestion included
the flying OF the American flag un-
der Japanese skippers and with
Japanese crews.
I believe that the fisheries issue
will become the first in a series OF
japanese dickering and compro--
mise proposals to avoid the terms
laid down In directives from Su'
preme Headquarters.
Before the war Japan had abou.
10000 Diesel engine boats In the
fishing business. The annual haul
was four million tons. q quarter OF
the estimated total world catch.
Three million workers were direc.'
ly engaged in fishing, from India
to Alaska, Japan to Mexico, In the
waters OF the Dutch East Indies
and the Philippines, and near the
shores OF Australia
Japanese home waters abound
With a thousand varieties OF fish.

Briefly. that was the situation be-

There are strong indications that
the japanese are planning to re-en-

Of conservation problems.
Then will follow bitter resent

About This Loan,
it's Complicated

tary of Treasury, the man with the
eyebrows, Fred NJ. Vinson. He
sat on one side of a gigantic coffin
shaped mahogany table and spent
day and a half telling the mem.
bers of the Banking and Currency
Committee why he believed we
should lend our cousins the money.
This vinson is an able citizen.
His views must be accepted with
respect. l was pleased to observe
that he wore a black tie with red
dish stripes, a cravat which indi-
Gated that he spends not one nickel
more than necessary on his haber-
dashery. A man who is careful OF
little things may be expected
etcetera on the big ones.
This loan, fellow taxpayers, aint
little. So q lady in o loud blouse
sat In the first row OF spectators
knitting what looked like the
sleeve to q blue sweater. Day long
she counted under her breath. eth
er her purls or wilson's dollars.
II was hard to tell which. Num-
erous other folks were there, too,
including about half dozen gents
in dark, horn.rimmed eyeglasses.
These were Britishers, Observing.
My man said you could spot 'em
by the chocolate shade OF their
spectacle rims. Americans wear
light-colored rims.
SO Vinson made HIS statement.
He tangled with an assortment OF
senators in ,lr ding Robert A. TAFT

Ernest w. Mcfarland OF Arizona
over such esoterica as invisible In.
comes (even as yours and mine).
gold credits. sterling balances and
dollar pools. With your permis-
sion I'll skip those.
Assistant Secretary Of State VIII
Clayton, the big cotton man in
fine cotton shirt, came along then
and told the same story In diner-
ent words. He also got into the
same arguments with the same
senators.
II Is peculiar how a head like
mine Cor maybe It isn't) begins to
ache from the strain OF session
like this, but ! believe | have the
deal figured out. Vinson and Clay
ton claim the British have got to
have this dough so they can buy
stuff from us. II they don't there'll
be an international depression, and
whooie! I'm still quoting vinson
& Co. Some OF the senators aren't
so sure.
So we lend the money to the Brit
ish and charge 'em something un-
der two per cent a year interest.
II business still goes blooie, we
skip the interest. Strictly as q
business loar vinson said the
scheme was not so hot. He said he
lied Il because OF its other ad-
vantages.

per cent. he might make profit or
about tweli o hundredths Of one per

Sen. Taft said all right. then.
what's the idea OF charging home
buyers four per cent? vinson said
that wasn't his business. The argu-
ers then took up British credits.

Money For Zoos e
Looking at Life

II Is q grand idea, Of course, TO
make HE 20 pleasant for the wild
animals.
But l was seeing, In my minds
eye, the thousands OF New York
children. cooped up In hot tene-
ments, who would 80 enjoy swim
ming holes in .he Bronx River.
And when Mr.. Osborn spoke OF
the "barless exhibit OF tigers"
was thinking Of an America In
which little children would no long
or be shut In behind bars because
of the shortcomings and delinquen-
cy Of their elders and in which
literature, radio, films. and re-
search" would be used first o. all
TO educate people to look after
their own offspring and their own
kind before any part OF any million
would be used for the ornamental
ton of ZOOS and the modernization
Of animal housing.
One OF the great troubles with us
humans Is that we are too apt TO
weep for tigers and gibbons and
shut our eyes to our own.

BY ERICH BRANDErs

II was rather amusing-in . re.
pulsive sort Of way-to read the
speech made by Fairfield Osborn.
president OF the New York Zoologi-
cal Society, when he announced Q
100000 expansion program at the
organizations annual meeting held
st the Waldorf-Astoria.
Il have never quite been able 20
understand why these money-rais-
ing campaigns for some poverty
stricken or unfortunate or pitiful
these-or-those are always held at
the city's swankiest hotel or club. }
Mr.. Osborn waxed eloquent In be-
half of New York's wild life (par-
ticularly the wild lie in the Bronx
Zoo, which should not be confound.
cd with that OF the night clubs or
dance-halls).
Not only mus. we complete the
metamorphosis. OF the Zoo," he said,
such as getting the animals out
from behind the bars and giving
them their natural environments
but also we need 20 extend our In
fluence In the world OF ideas,
through literature, radio, films, re-
search. and the vital field OF con-
versation."
didn't have q chance to inter.
view Mr.. Osborn, so I can't report
whether he intends to get out litera.
ture to be read by the lions and u.
gers and giraffes and zebras or
whether he wants to spend part Of
that seven million dollars on propa-
ganda In behalf OF the bettermen.
OF the living conditions o. animals
In ZOOS all over the world.
In his speech. by the way, he ad-
vocated such improvements as
swimming holes for Asiatic eleph-
ants, open-air enclosures for goril-
las. gibbons, and chimpanzees; a
barless exhibit OF tigers on a HILL
side-and an open-air restaurant.

THE CHARTER


Anything new always brings out
the doubters. The automobile
they said 1t wouldn't run. Rail.
road-the doubters said 1t never
could be . success. Steamboat
bad thing--neyer would amount to
anything. Air brake-vanderbilt
said Westinghouse must be crazy
to think he could stop trains with
air. Our American Constitution
more fault was found with IL than
we can now imagine. and II was
adopted very grudgingly; but who
would be SO bold as TO say a word
against II now?
Who got up this new charter Z
The people voted to have a Char
ter Commission. (That was De-
mocracy, wasn't it?) The people
elected commissioners. (That was
also democracy The commission
ers were able, faithful, careful,
and. II you ask me, wise. They
produced a good piece OF work, and
offer II for your approval.
Who advocate its adoption!
Some Of those who favor adoption
have signed an advertisement pub
lished recently In this newspaper.
They, with possibly one exception.
are citizens of standing. and all
have the best interests Of the city
at heart.
Who are against II? An adver-
tisement adverse TO the charter had
no names signed. One class Of
citizens can be sure OF are against
it-those who have easy jobs with
good pay, and who are afraid that
they win lose out under an efficient
manager.
Mr.. Voter. do you want to live
In q town that is afraid OF pro-
gress-that wants to keep on in
the same old way regardless Of
how antiquated or inefficient. be-
cause somebody cries out that our
democracy is threatened? That 10
just a red herring. We will still
elect our representatives In q per-
fsctly democratic way. II some
DOuy Whutb 10 bcc uOW Tue pcOplc
feel on democracy, just let them
propose some really undemocratic
proposition-they won't get to first
base. Our democracy has stood
since 1889, and the people can be
depended upon to take good care
OF It.
l talked last night with a man
from Battle Creek. He compared
conditions In Battle Greek and
Kalamazoo. Kalamazoo has a city
manager-has no public debt.
everything paid for. has new fine
city hall, free and clear. Battle
Creek has an old out-of-date city
hall. not paid for yet. Battle
Creek has r commission with nc
manager.
Mr.. Voter, which class do you
want 10 be int This Ii democracy
you can vote-do you want to bs
In the Kalamazoo class, or stay In
the Battle Creek class?

Observations
This Nation Has
Fullest Market
Basket

The all-American drive for a
voluntary belt-tightening under the
direction OF former President Her
bert Hoover, in order that femines
in Europe and Asia might be avert
ed, probably will still ind the Unit
ed States with the fullest market
basket in history.
The probably" is there be-
cause a bad growing season might
cut into present estimates OF ls4e
crops. But II all turns out as the
Department OF Agriculture ex-
poets, we can voluntarily reduce
our diets and still eat better than
we have in any previous year.
Except for sugar, eggs ana
wheat, there viii be more OF vir-
tually everything than there Was
in 1914 and-except for sugar
alone-far more than In the 1885,
SO pre-war years.
The sugar shortage, along with
the shortages in fats and oils, Is
a world shortage that the United
States can't do much about re-
lieving.
The President has promised
$4,000, 900 pounds of fats ana
vegetable oils TO the stricken ma
tions. This may cut a bit into
civilian diets here, but this Is
only a little more than five per
cent OF the 81 billion pounds fore
cast for this year. Batter, classed
as a fat by the Department OF Agri-
culture, probably won't be plenu-
full on the table this year.
The egg situation is far from
anything to worry about. Civil
fans will have an average Of 365
eggs apiece this year. While they
consumed an average OF 800
apiece last year. they only got
away with 2ss each In the 1859
period.
While II Is estimated that there
will be four pounds of -four less
per person this year than last, 1t
still will, amount to 157 pounds,
four more than was consumed In
lut uft-ycdI DdoC piSWoi pSAAou-
It is estimated that there viii
be ten pounds more per person Of
fresh fruits than the 1888 pounds
OF prewar days: nine pounds more
of dairy products than the sol
pounds; Is pounds more OF pro-
cessed fruits and vegetables than
the 81 pounds Of 1858.
The meat situation will be much
better than last year. The depart
ment estimated that there would be
$50 pounds of red meats and 20
pounds of poultry meats available
for every man, woman and child In
the country this year. That COM
pares with 1872 pounds Of the form
er and 20 OF the latter last year and
126 and 21 pounds respectively In
the base period.
Starting from this level. Hoover
and his associates shouldn't have
such q hard time convincing the
nation that "our national self-re-
spect and duties as human beings"
Gas President Truman put IT. de-
mand that we voluntarily sacrifice
O little from our groaning tables TO
relieve what appears TO be the
worst food crisis In the history OF
Europe and Asia.
