teers. Also, Secretary Tobin gave a
general encouragement to the fourth
wage-increase drive" on the ground
that a great many did not get enough
out of the third drive. 1t is hard to
see how he could have gone further.
Considering that Mr. Tobin spoke
at the AFL convention as an official
of the Administration, and consider
ing the speech of Supreme Court
Justice William O. Douglas before
the CIO convention at Portland, it is
easy to understand why these big
Boys" of labor should feel they again
can do what they please. However, it
is to be doubted, despite the "man-
date" chorus, that Congress will feel
that way. And even some slight doubt
about Mr.. Truman, too.

Control Program
For Pollution Being
Mapped By State

The Maryland Water Pollution
Control commission is mapping a con-
trol program for the states Upper
Potomac river area that will begin
in Garrett and Allegany counties.
Adoption of basic policy to be fol-
lowed to abate water pollution in
Maryland was also announced.
In the Upper Potomac program the
commission said industries and mu-
inequalities are to be called upon to
help carry out the program. The first
studies are being made in the two
Western Maryland counties. John G..
Walters, chemist for the commission,
was in Garrett county last week seek
ing information from various munic,-
palities.
To Classify Streams
One of the first moves i'm the pro-
gram will be to classify the river and
tributary streams in zones, based on
conditions found.
Then the industries and munich
palities adjacent to the poorest
water-quality zones will be listed.
Next will come conferences with
representatives of industries and
municipalities to discuss individual
waste disposal problems and to set
standards concerning how much
waste will be permitted to go into
the river or tributaries.
The industries and municipalities
will be asked to determine their waste
disposal problems through stream
sampling, waste analysis and plant
study.
Then, the commission said, the
groups will be required to state the
program they expect to follow in
correcting their own pollution prob
lens.
The program for the Upper Potc-
mac was outlined at the same time
the commission announced the basic
policy for control and abatement Of
pollution.

King Philippe was the guest of honor
and the great chef Collinet planned to serve
the kings favorite food - French fried pota-
toes. The train arrived on schedule, the thin
sliced potatoes were tossed into the fat.
But the king was delayed; he was travelling
by carriage rather than risk his life on
those new-fangled steam cars. In desperation
Collinet dipped out the potatoes, their edges
already beginning to brown, and laid them
aside. When the royal rig drove into the
courtyard. they we're returned to the fat A
miracle - the slices puffed into crisp hollow
fingers, shaped like balloons. The king was
delighted; new dish was born
One of the few close friends to whom
Collinet confded his secret was Antoine
Alciatore, then chef of the Hotel de Noaes
at Marseilles. 1t was shortly afterward that
Antoine emigrated to the States to amaze
New Orleans with puffed-up potatoes. The
method of making is included in the booklet.

trouble is that much of this is some
thing for which you have to pay.
And much so-called service is SIM
ply mending something that was
not done right in the first place.
Tabitha's service was of different
kind 1t was genuine doing for
people who couldn't do much for
themselves and who certainly could
not do anything in return
Even among Christians, when we
think of service we set our sights
sometimes too nigh. We think of

Texan Claims lie

Pal Greets Hin,

OAKLAND, CALIF.-Al Jennings,

Der, was brought face to face with
a Texan who says he's Jesse James
and exclaimed, It's him!"
Jennings took one long look at j.
Frank Dalton, or James. His voice
choked and his eyes filled with
tears.
"It's him." said Jennings. That's
the face My word of honor.
Boys, there amt bit Of doubt

old outlaw-supposedly long arnold
ering in a Missouri grave-first was
made public when Dalton announced
that he was the famous desperado.
Secret Question
Jennings said before the meeting
he could prove whether the old man
was Jesse James by single ques-
ton dealing with "shootin' match"
of long ago on a ranch in West
Texas.
The only person who knew about
that match, he said, were himself,
one other man-and Jesse James.
AS the two met, the eyes of both
filled with tears.

Jennings.
The other nodded his head vigor-
ously. His voice broke as he said:
"You bet. You won shootin'
match on the old c Dot E ranch. :"
Jennings grabbed him by the
hand.
Killed By Gang Member
History says Jesse was killed at
st. Joseph, Mo-, in April, 1882, by
Bob Ford. a member Of his gang.
Dalton says that's all nonsense,
that the man Ford killed was "a
Pinkerton feller named Charlie Big
elow," After the shooting, he de-
cided to disappear.
Jennings said he was frankly
skeptical about the old man until
I asked old Jesse some questions

knowed." ....

union, as their conversation paraded

Would They Want You Back?

Joppa, but the only one who seems
to have been worth a miracle to
bring back to life was this woman,
Tabitha, or Dorcas. Her life was
over, yet it was life worth living

How many people would be worth
bringing back to life again? How
many funerals would the neighbors
want done in reverse? Not many,
maybe, but if the neighbors voted
at each funeral, as they did at
Tabitha's, on the question, do we
want this person back again?" they
would usually vote for people like
