Oldest Inhabitants Turn Minds
To Record Shows and Ice Cream
By Georoe Kennedy

'Mais ou sont les neiges dsantar?"
("But where are the SHOWS Of yes
teryear?'') wrote Francois Villon,
that 18th century Partisan rogue,
in beginning q ballad that Inn
mortalized him.
Last night members Of the Asso-
citation Of Oldest Inhabitants turned
their attention to the SHOWS Of
yesteryear at their meeting in the
Old Union Engine House ut Nine
teenth and II streets NV.
When the reminiscent testimony
was all In John Clagett Proctor, the

despairing Of topping the tales Of

it was in the last two weeks.
Ice Cream Interrupts.
The members were delayed In
getting to their recollections of
winters past by somewhat related
subject, ice cream. Ford e. Young,
jr., Of the Fussell- Young Ice Cream
Co., representing the ice cream sec
ton Of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Association, appeared to
tell them about the ice cream con-
troversy. Mr.. Young said ice cream
had been sold in pints and quarts
"sinee Jacob Russell introduced ice
cream to the world in Washington
in 1851" It would be impractical,
said Mr.. Young, to have ice cream
weighed at the factory and In the
stores.
Charles Bates, always ready with
the amenities, arose and said. IT
move a vote Of thanks to Mr.. Young
for giving us this very enlighten-
ing talk this evening"
j. Newton Baker, the handwrit-
ing expert, jumped to his feet with
an objection.
Z "If you want to see how you're
trimmed with packaged ice cream,
just melt 1t and see what you
have" he said. "They blow 1t up
and then freeze It,"
Mr.. Proctor poured on the oil.
IT often buy ice cream for my
self and Mrs. Proctor" he said,
"and I notice the fellow some
times almost breaks his arm press
ing down to I'LL the package, anc
that's what I like to see him do"
Mr.. Bates motion was renewed.
Mr.. Proctor asked for ayes of which
there were several, then banged
his gavel quickly after asking for
noes. It was carried unanimously

Then Hitler began to worry about
the press reports: "If this news had
not already gotten into the radio.- !
would have stopped 1t. How shall
we report it in the press? Wen say
that they didn't get any supplies for
months and they were then over

slams will give different story, SO
We must get this out first"
Seydlitze and Schmidt talked on
the Moscow radio for the German
Committee for Freedom. Won Paulus
held out until January, 1945, when
he learned that one of his best
friends was killed after the July 20,
1914 attempt ton Hitler's life. Then
too he talked over the radio. Until
then the German press had praised
him as hero. But when he advo-
Gated revolt against Hitler, they
never mentioned him again.
Referred to Won Kluge's Plot.
The only mention of an attempt
on Hitler's life in the "Lagebes-
prechungen" is in reference to Field
Marshal Guenther Won Kluge, in
the meeting of August 80, 1914.
Won Kluge had been involved in
the July 20 plot and, when 1t failed,
