GEN. JOSEPH w. STILWELL

Americans everywhere saddened by the death of Gen Joseph w Vinegar Joe" Siwell, hero of the Burma campaign and of Americas most colorful soldiers
 Simple and unpretentious by nature, he summed pomp and ceremony often wearing uniform that was a wide departure from regulation We are out to win battles now not dress parades," he once explained
 In the Burma jungles he wore battered felt infantry hat or Chinese officers cap with his faded American uniform that usually consisted of a mud stained jacket with no rank insignia, ordinary G. L pants and eggings
 What went for him went for his men, They wore clothes best adapted for jungle fighting without fear

ly in Washington that the public seldom knows whats going on until it is called on to foot the bill. One operation that ought to be watched is the tug-of-war by the big steel companies to take over the Gov ernment's new modern steel plant in South Chicago now operated by Tom Girdler's Republic Steel.
 Built by Uncle Sam for war pur- poses, the South Chicago mill cost the taxpayer around $90,000,000 It is one of the most streamlined in the country. The question now is. Who will get this industrial wind- fall?
 After the last war, Government factories were sold for a song to the private companies which oper- ate them, and, some years later, the Army and Navy found them selves needing increased armaments with few munition plants at their disposal. At one time in May and June Of 1940, even after France fell, some of the big industrialists deliberately stalled on armamentS until the Treasury promised them tax bonanza on the depreciation of new war plants.
 As result, some Army Navy men hope that all of Uncle Sams war plants will not again be turned over to private industry for song However, Gen. Robert M. Little john, the War Assets Administra- tor, has different ideas. He wants to get surplus war property off his hands as quickly as possible-a policy which frequently plays into the hands of big business.

A tired soldier who had been walking towards the front for many days came up to the general and asked where was the next camp.
 Down the trail hundred yards and off into the jungle about mile, the general answered. The soldier retorted Why in hell does the old man build his camps so far off the trail?V
 After his return to the United States in 1944, he wore rbbonless dress uniform at press conference Explaining the lack of ribbons he said T only have two ribbons that mean anything the Distinguished Service Cross and Distinguished Service MedaD and didn't deserve them The ribbons should be left to the boys who take it day and night and get shot up

Dovetailing with this policy, Re- public Steel has offered to buy the Governments South Chicago steel plant for S30,0O0,000, about one third it's original cost. Payments would be made over twenty years at $l,500,000 a year. No interest would he paid to the Government.
 Only bidder against Republic Steel so far is Henry Kaiser. Shut out of the steel market, Kaiser has decided the only way he can get steel for his automobiles is to make it himself He has offered to rent the Government South Chicago plant at $2,0O00O0 a year for the first three years.
 Kaiser contends that the Gov ernment would be able to take the plant back in case of increased in- ternational tension, and that, in the interim, it will get more money from him than from Republic.

Indefinitely Postponed
(NeW York Sum

The announcement from the White House that the third test of the atomic bomb at Bikni, originally scheduled for March of next year has been indefinitely postponed will be generally interpreted to mean that the test will take place An official statement explains that the Joint Chiefs of Staff has concluded that tests already conducted at Bikin together WtE information gained from the original test in New Mexico and the bombs dropped at Hiroshima and Nagasaki will allow scientific and military men to make "a proper evauation of the effects of this weapon With this conclusion the public will be tempted to agree even though it lacks information necessarily restricted to these experts. Yet this of fically sponsored statement may not give all the reasons which the United States has for abandoning the third test at Bikini.
 A deep underwater test of the atomic bomb might leave Uncle Sam in the position of the lawyer who proved too much There is need to dem onstrate to uneasy world that the atomic bomb is effective, either against cities like Hiroshima, or against naval vessels. The uneasness of the world does not arise from doubts about the effectiveness of the bomb but from doubts about the capabilities of Another test a series of tests might add to technical knowledge of the powers of the bomb but at the cost of increasing worldwide apprehension.

ARGENTINE MEAT

Most people have forgotten it, but the late President Roosevelt got into quite a controversy in 1889 over the relative merits of Argentine and American beef. Many people at that time said he was casting reflection on the honor of the American COW and claimed he had committed such a political blunder that he couldn't expect to be re-elected.
 At that time, the idea of im- porting Argentine meat was pure political dynamite, much more so than today when the public IS cla- moring for meat. At that time there was ample meat in the USA, but despite that fact, Roosevelt ordered the U. s. Navy to pur- chase a mere driblet of 2l tons of Argentine canned beef.
 Immediately there was a hue and cry from western cattlemen. They even went so far as to intro duce an amendment to the Naval Appropriations Bill whereby the Navy would be required to buy only American meat
 Roosevelt, however, stood his ground, even stated publicly that Argentine canned beef was better than American canned beef.
 Under an Agricultural Depart ment ruling, Argentine fresh or frozen beef cannot he imported in- to the United States because of hoof and mouth disease. However, canned beef can be imported So also can meat-largely mutton from Patagonia, southermost end of Argentina, which is disease-free.
 During the war the British bought up most of the Argentine meat supply on a lend-lease agree ment with the USA, whereby part of the Argentine meat was used for the American Army abroad However, there is no reason why the British could not be induced to divide some of this meat now especially in view of the fact that it was purchased with American money.

Earlier in 1909 about "a Catholics
gathered in the home of a Mr.
Lochboeler, almost directly across
the street from the present edifice
to celebrate a mass. Father M
Francis Yingling, who came to start
the parish from church in South
ern Maryland, was the celebrant.
A short time later a small wooden
chapel was built, adjoining the site
of the present church, by Father
Yingling. Land for the church was
purchased from Mrs. Shugrue not
long after the initial gathering o,
the group. The cornerstone for the
edif1ce was laid on September 10
1909, by James Cardinal Gibbons.
Stones for the walls were taker

Station at Pennsylvania avenue and

steeple came from the firehouse al

be, and whatever his lot. he still
may represent Christ.
Our lesson frankly confronts the
problem Of Christianizing our cities.
AS in Paul's day, they are strategic
centers. Should there come third
world war its first action would be
to destroy the cities. Speaking by
and large, the cities are today the
church's great problem. They are
not being won. In many places the
church is in open retreat, and the
battle is being left to guerrilla bands
of new sects. A mighty "go to
church" movement is overdue.
Our present task is to change the
minds of millions before a world
victory can be won. And it is not
easy to change men's-and women S
minds. Only the persistent pres
entation of the winsomeness and
power of the Saviour can do it.
That was Paul's method; that must
be our program, too.

During those early years Father
Yingling could be seen driving q
horse and buggy to visit parishion-
erS.
Several years later a Sunday
school, having more than so stu
dents, was begun in the home OF
Daniel and Mary Harrington, at
464l Conduit road NV. The pupils
met in the dining room, two living
rooms and the kitchen. An unusual
aspect Of the school was the presence
of Protetant as well as Catholic
students.
Early in the morning Of october
Is, 1922, fire broke out in the
church. Before the firemen could
put out the blaze the interior Of the
building had been completely burned
with one inspiring exception. The
Blessed Sacrament, though in the
center of the blaze, was undamaged.
Father Yingling called this preserva-
ton "a modern miracle that mortal
man cannot explain"
Near the edifice a frame hall had
been built. The parishioners moved
there for the masses during the Pc
riod of rebuilding the church inte-
rior. This hall is now used as a
meeting place. The. present rectory,
beside the church, was built in 1886.
The church hall will eventually be
razed to provide site for proposed
school building.
Names of donors for the erection of
the church are on stone plaques In

On the other side, beneath the stair
