ID EOPLE who are able to help

portion to circumstances of birth or

Irving Berlin was born in Russia
in 1888, the youngest of eight chill
dren. His father, a cantor or psalm
singer in the village synagogue,
brought the family to New York's
East Side tenement district when
Irving was four years old. The boy
loved to sing, but his first jobs were
as a newsboy, and telegraph de-
livery boy. His was the depressing
life of the slurns child, street-fght-
ing, swimming in the dirty East riv-
er, lodging traffic in the streets at
play. At fourteen, he left home to
sing in saloons for pennies the pa
irons tossed to him. He was in the
chorus of a musical show, was
waiter III a Chinese restaurant, and
singing waiter in couple OF
night clubs.
Up to this time the happiness
Irving Berlin brought to others was
limited to the few people who could
see and hear him. His voice was
not unusual enough TO bring him to
the Top rank of entertainers. Then,
he started writing songs. The first
one brought him only 81 cents, the
next, S25; but thereafter he ad-
vanced rapidly. He worked often
until two or three o'clock in the
morning, and by the time he was
thirty-six, 800 songs had been pub
Iished under his name, including
such world-known hits as Down on
the Farm. "Everybody's DOM 1t, 4"
''My Wife Has Gone to the Coun-
try" and "Alexander's Rag-time
Band"

NEW YORK, July 24.-tR-While the Yankees tbasebalD are breeding along toward pennant, Ray Flah- erty is making plans for the Yankees (football) to do the same thing At least, he says, they're going to make strong effort to catch up with the Cleveland Browns, who ran away from the other All ll-America conference teams last season.
 Ray has two good reasons for entertaining such hopes-Frankie Sinkwich and Buddy Young . Sinkwich, overweight and troubled by knee injury, has been work ing out in Georgia since last spring and is down to l90 pounds. When Frank is good, he's very good and he'll, give the Yankees an experienced passer. something they didn't have last year
 As for Young, he only weighs TO pounds but he's only 5-feet-5. Says Ray If he was six footer he'd weight about 2l0. And he's harder to tackle because he's so close to the ground. Buddy can go through the middle and then run away from the secondaries. v
 As for support for this pair, Flaherty reports he has P tackles and guards whose weight averages Letter than 225 pounds per man.

Railroad Workers.
The central bureau of the CGT
called a meeting for $50 pm
O2:30 pm. EST to consider the
governments reply to its wage in
crease demands.
1t was reported that Mr.. Schu-
mans inner cabinet had agreed on
double barreled policy calling for
general wage increases and stern
law enforcement measures to COM
bat the wave of strikes and disorders
sweeping the nation.
Informed sources said the pro-
gram would be presented to the full
cabinet for consideration later in the
day and that If approved the wage
increase would then be offered to
union leaders.
It was believed likely that Mr.
Schuman might follow this up with
a broadcast appeal to the strikers
who now number almost $500, 900
to return to their Jobs.
Speed Believed Vital.
Neither the amount OF the salary
increases repeatedly agreed on by
Mr.. Schuman's brain trust" nor
the proposed security measures were
Immediately disclosed.
The steps, however, were in line
with the "act fast and talk little"
slogan which the new government
adopted when 1t was organized
Monday.
Speed was regarded as vital in
order that Mr.. Schuman might have
something concrete to present to
the National Assembly tomorrow
when he is expected to seek its ap-
proval of his new cabinet.
The Assembly. by vote of 412 to
1874, gave Mr. Schuman the green
light Saturday to form new gov
ernment after turning down Social
ist Leon Blum. Rightist support en-
abled Mr.. Schuman to obtain the
necessary majority, but since then
the right-wing organ LEpoque has
expressed dissatisfaction with his
choice OF ministers, declaring that
the selection-running from Social
lists to moderates-did mot answer
the country's choice"

Gray Sees President;
To Take VA Post Jan. 1

Carl r. Gray. jr.. newly named
veterans administrator, saw Presi-
dent Truman today for the first time
since his appointment last Friday
and told reporters later he would
be ready to take over his new duties
January /.
That date was specified by Presi-
dent Truman in relieving Gen.
Bradley as veterans administrator
to become Army Chief of Staff. 1t is
also the date on which Mr.. Gray's
retirement as vice president of the
Chicago e. Northwestern Railway
will be effective.
Mr.. Gray said that it was def
nitely" too early to talk about a
successor to DR.. Paul r. Hawley,
who has resigned as the VA medical
director. The administrator -desig-
nate said that he was very, very
sorry" that DR.. Hawley was step
ping out, paying high tribute to his
services.
Mr.. Gray, asked what he consid-
cred his biggest problem, responded
by declaring that "the number of
veterans and the volume Of work
in the administration OF their af-
fairs is difficult business to handle
in the absence of mass-production
operation-and you can't handle the
problem Of human beings in mass
production fashion"
Mr.. Gray spent the morning with
Gen. Bradley and, his aides at the
Veterans Administration and
planned to return there this after
noon for further discussion of ad-
matters.
