Joe Full of the Merchants,

The Portland Keglers
To cement friendly athletic as
sociations between the two cities
and to renew old acquaintance as
well as making many new friends,
the Nisei community welcomed the
appearance of the Lombard Food
Center bowling team of Portland.
Although their victories equalled
the losses in their competition
here, they showed every sign Of
being a top-grade team.
Led by the veteran Tosh Shin

onslaught of the local all-stars.

Two SS. Companies Move to New Pier

SEATTLE, (P) - The last re- maining obstacle to the move by two Alaska steamship firm from antiquated piers on the waterfront to pier 42, one of the most modern shipping terminals, was removed Friday, J. A. Barley, Seattle port commission secretary, announced.
 The Reconstruction Finance Corporation has approved the ports plan to redeem approxi- mately S2,OOO,OOO of its revenue bonds, he said.
 It will save approximately $780, 900 in interest over the life of the bonds and permit the Alaska Steamship Go. and the Northland Transportation Co., to move their quarters.

Jet Planes Create New Problems For Ground CreWnen

Heads or tails? Navy plane handlers will lose, unless they keep their wits about them.
 After years of stunning the pro- peller end of parked airplanes, ground crewmen now find that their jobs on the flight deck of an operating aircraft carrier have been further complicated by the blast from the tails of jet planes.
 The combined heat and velocity of the exhaust from the tail of Q jet plane can be fully as lethal as the whirling steel propeller in the nose of conventional plane. A recent Navy Rlight Safety Bulle- tin warns that man crossing the stream of a jet exhaust is in dan ger of being seriously burned and in even greater danger of being thrown a considerable distance across the deck or ground by the force of the blast.
 Not only must the harried plane handlers avoid the tails of jet planes, but they must learn to stay out of the suction area in front of air-intake scoops, as there is the possibility of being drawn against the entry ducts and held there un- til the engine can be shut down. Unwary groundlings can also lose hats, eyeglasses, rags tools, loose clothing and similar items which, if sucked into the engine would do more damage to the engine than to the loser.
 Stressing the need for intensive training and education in making the transition to jet plane hand ling, the Safety Bulletin recom- mends careful traffic direction for persons and taxing aircraft in the vicinity, a half hour cool-doWn period before working on the tail pipe, and caution in working on any other part of the plane during or immediately after engine opera ton.

Good Freedom Train Job

The Star-News believes it voices the sen-
timent of most visitors to the Freedom train
Wednesday in commencing the members of
the Wilmington Police department for the
excellent manner in which they handled the
near record pedestrian and automobile traf-
fic at the shipyard site.
It was no easy assignment for the men
under command of Lieut. Jack Moore.
More than ten thousand persons moved
through comparatively small area during
the 12 hours the train was open to the pub
lie. This crowd, incidentally, was the
second largest attracted by the exhibit IN
North Carolina and Virginia. The ten thou
sand figure was also two thousand greater
than the average day for call by the
train Yet, we are informed, order was near
perfect at all times. There wege no
accidents and because of the officers good
work, not visitor was prevented Hem

Fundamental Deficiencies

The Arab governments defiance of the
United Nations assemblys decision
on Palestine is indefensible, but it is not
without precedent.
They can cite the mighty Soviet Unions
several boycotts, notably that of the Little
Assembly" They can point to the mutual
assistance treaty between Yugoslavia and
Bulgaria, signed the day before the Pales-
tine decision, in which both parties agree
to bar the duly-constituted UN Balkan COM
mission from their territories.
All this makes even more glaring two
great shortcomings of the UN. There is no
real code of law to guide the organization,
and there is no means of enforcing its deci=
siops These shortcomings, unfortunately,
are very real. And the UN's future is not
SECURE until they are corrected.

Fire And Holiday Season

The Christmas holiday season offers fire
many extraordinary opportunities to break
forth and ruin the holiday for many fami-
ly.
There are several reasons for this. The
cold weather, with home and business es-
tablishment heating plants often going at
full blast, is high on the list. But temporary
decorations, the majority involving the use
of electricity and many with faulty wiring,
are another great cause of blazes. Then,
many persons are buster than usual in pre-
pairing for the Yule season and often over
look even ordinary precautions against
flame
Yesterday, Fire Chief j. L. Groom pre-
sented five simple fire safety rules to safe
guard homes against disaster. They are not
only worth reading but remembering by
ALL
"The Christmas season brings special
hazards" he emphasized Each year,
Christmas tree lighting arrangements start
fires in thousands of homes. Other Christ
mas lighting is responsible for many blazes.
Dwellings, stores and clubs are all menac-
ed by fliusy decorations made of flam-
mable material
The Chiefs five suggestions are:
Make sure the tree is solidly placed, to
avoid an upset.
Keen it standing in water to increase its
fire resistance.
Have an approved fire extinguisher han
dy at all times.
Inspect Christmas tree lights for frsyed
wires or loose sockets.
Remember to switch off the trees lights
before retiring at night.
The Chief also reminded proprietors and
operators of public places to guard against
fire. Aisles and exits should be kept unoh-
str,cted because blaze in any gathering
may lead to panic.
By needing Chief croom's simple and
timely advice, many home here will es-
cape the damage and sadness which fire 50
often brings during the holiday.

HOLLYWOOD And Honesty

Hollywood, as Ray Tucker explained IN
=. an article in The Wilmington News recently'
is suffering the severest case OF Jltters IN us
=relat;velv short but highly colorful and I'M
portant history
= There are numerous reasons Why the PIC
ture producers are counting their troubles
:. instead of sheep as they try to sleep.
. The most recent of movieland's worries IS
the House Un-American Activities commit
tees investigation. 1t showed a trace of pink
in important places Public reaction was
such that the best thing Hollywood leaders
could do was to discharge those who refused
to say whether they were members OF the
Communist party. This action was, in effect,
the best kind of support OF the Thomas COM
mittee and belied most of the criticism fired
sat it from the West coast.
Then, domestic theater attendance is fall
ing off, religious groups are boycotting some
films, England is all but dead as market
and few American pictures are appearing
elsewhere in war-torn Europe.
What were expected to be lush days in
the postwar era have been the reverse.
What then, can Hollywood do?
e First, clean house of its Communists. Be-
cause the motion picture is one of the most
Influential of public mediums, not even a
minor member of the American wing of the
party should have even whisper in film
production.
Second, abandon the fear of experimental
tion with the new in entertainment A few
days ago, veteran director, Ray Garnett,
predicted that the industry is going to
throw story formulas out the window"
Look at our biggest successes" he sug-
gested "Pictures like Going My Way and
Lost Weekend were all unconventional
stories. They had just one common element
honesty"
Perhaps complete honesty with itself, it,
public and the entire nation is what Holly
wood has been lacking all along Combine
greater courage with that virtue and roll
in a little economy and the movie makers
should be able to pull themselves out Of
their present dark preoicament.
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-12-14

viewing the sacred historical documents be-
cause of traffic congestion.
More than a score of officers worked
overtime the traffic detail was on duty
from am. to IL pm. without any
promise of extra remuneration. Many who
were off duty volunteered and assisted in
carrying out the well prepared plans to
handle the traffic. All this they did cheer
fully, often smiling as they held babies
for tired mothers or otherwise helped the
crowd maintain its good hun1or in the
lengthy, cold and wet queue.
Cooperation from officials of the Mari
time commission in helping with the traf-
fie problem also deserves praise. Through
their interest and effort, the cafeteria build
ling was opened to protect many from the
weather and the loud speaker system was
made available to assist in the direction OF
the visitors.
The visit of the train here has been term
ed complete success, except from the un-
preventable standpoint of the inclement
weather. It is quite obvious, from the COM
ment we've heard in the past few days,
that the highly competent handling of the
heavy traffic was quite factor in making
the historic occasion a pleasant one for
thousands of Wilmingtonians.
We wonder how many people thought, as
they observed the officers going about their
duties, that here was a working example of
the law as the supreme protector of the in
dividual and his rights in our democracy?
