Court Revokes Bond
OF Boston Marine in
Assault on Policeman

Municipal Court Judge Ellen K.
Raedy yesterday ordered forfeited
the $500 bond of a Marine re-
servist and issued an attachment
ordering him brought to court to
answer to a charge of "kneeing"
a traffic policeman. The Marine
failed to appear when the case
was called.
Judge Raedy ordered bondsman
James Conroy to forfeit the
money he had posted guarantee
ing the appearance of Richard
M. Strong, %, who, lives in a
fashionable "blueblood" section of
Boston and is currently student
at Columbia University.
Strong was in training at
Quantico, Va, July 4 when he
assaulted Pvt. E. E. Proudfoot
when the traffic policeman tried
to arrest the youth on a jay
walking charge at Thirteenth and
E streets NV.
The case was continued several
times, and some confusion over
it developed last week when Pvt.
Proudfoot told reporters he un-
derstood that Judge Raedy ruled
the Marine reServist would be
permitted to post $50 collateral
in place of the bond, and then
be allowed to pay the forfeit be-
cause conviction on the assault
charge would end his chance OF
getting a Marine commission.
A penciled notation to the ef-
feet was seen on a file in the pos
session of Assistant United States
Attorney Alfred Hartman.
However, Judge Raedy told re-
porters they we're misinformed
and that she had merely con-
tinued the case until today for
investigation.
Judge Raedy was told today by
Strongs attorney, Myron G. Ehr-
Itch, that he did not know where
the youth was now. He said he
had received a letter from
Strong's mother asking the case
be continued again until Decem-
Der 3. Judge Raedy refused to do
this, however, and said, II want
him here.
Mr.. Ehrlich received Judge
Raedy's permission to withdraw
from the case because, he said,
his client had refused to follow
his advice"

Nafion's S Auto Industry
Has Great Potential
For Arms Production
By David J. Wiikie

DETROIT. June 2s.-The Ma
tion's giant auto industry built
$40 billion worth Of armament
IN World War II: 1t could build
much more much faster If another
emergency arose.
That's the view of high auto
industry sources today. Nobody
doubts the industry has q tenta-
tive program for arms production
in another war. But its execu-
tives talk about war production
possibilities only in generalities.
Yet 1t isn't much Of a secret that
Just about every auto industry
plant has been surveyed as to its
adaptability to armament produc-
ton and that every manufacturer
knows what he will be asked to
make.
Work With Military.
One high industry executive,
preferring to remain unidentified,
said recently:
"Of course. We have some mill
tary work under way: right now
1t is mainly replacement work on
parts and materials for vehicles
in the field. Actually. the volume
isn't as great as you might think.
It couldn't be very heavy while
we are turning out close to zoe, 900
peace-time vehicle sa week. But
we are working closely with the
military"
The auto industry likes to think
Of itself as freedoms, arsenal"
In World War II it made almost
every type Of armament from
bullets to Cotton tanks. It built
small arms and long-range guns,
torpedoes and aircraft engines,
tank destroyers and bomb sights.
And before the wars end 1t had
one plant alone turning out
bombers at the rate Of one every
hour.
Helped Make A-Bombs.
The industry laso had q share
In development Of the atom bomb.
This secret work was carried on
in what appeared to be q de-
partment store building in the
process Of alteration in the heart
Of downtown Detroit.
The industry's productive Ca
pacity has been expanded greatly
since World War II. It spent more
than 81 billion for buildings and
manufacturing equipment. It
leased many wartime installations
from the Government.
About all the leases contain q
national security" clause. This
provides for q quick return of the
installations to armament work
II needed.
Deny Arms Making Rumors.
Right now industry sources
generally profess to have heard
not even o rumor that some of
their factories may soon be con-
verted to arms production.
Instead they are talking about
building 3.5 million passenger cars
and trucks to make 1850 the big
gest peacetime production year in
Car industry history.
Because it was caught unpre-
pared. the auto industry needed
many months to convert to all-out
war work after Pearl Harbor. One
OF It's first steps was the discon-
tinuance Of all production of ci-
william passenger cars and COM
mercial vehicles.
If another emergency arises
once again there would be no
civilian car and truck production.

WhyGrow
Old?
BY Josephine Lowmon

We can learn a lot about color
full living and charm from the
Mexicans. The Mexican mood is
full of color and romance and
whimsey. These people do not
rush through life but take time to
SAVIOR it.
It is true that there is a great
deal of poverty and misery in
Mexico but the. people bring
imagination to the scene and
dramatize everyday living. Even
Mexican beggars beg with talent
and put on good show for their
benefactors.
The mountains are bluer in
Mexico, the donkeys bray louder,
there are more flowers on the
street, the mountainside farms are
sleeper, the music is lovelier and
the customs and costumes are so
attractive.
In Mexicans there Is a stole at
titude which carries with it a
relaxed mood. These folks take
the barbs of fate somewhat re-
signedly and they have learned
to drain each day of any joy or
laughter or song it may hold.
The MexicanS are a highly ar
tistic and creative people. This is
reflected in their beautiful hand
crafts. Most of them create some
thing with their hands. Some
psychologists feel that this is a
need for all individuals. The
walled-in patios of even the most
modest homes are lush with vines
and flowers and plants and pot
terry of all kinds.
Mexicans are children Of nature
and live close to it. They love
their blue mountains and over
and over again. you see them by
the roadside, gazing out over the
beautiful scenery. watching the
mists roll down the mountains.
Their faces reflect the inner
quietude and peace which those
who are at home with nature
always show
They are a highly gregarious
people. On any Sunday after
noon one can see them gathered,
dozens of them, at some barn
where they seem to be having
wonderful time. They come from
miles around for these Sunday
meetings.
Our own rushed, hectic civiliza-
ton could use some of the easier
pace of the Mexicans, more of
their song and color and easy
friendliness. Our health and
charm and looks and happiness
would profit by it.

FARM DOINGS IN THE VALLEY

CONSERVATION NOTES

Your correspondent made a tour this week of the forage and cereal adaptation plots set up around Palmer. He accompanied Harlow Hodson, Dr. s. C. Litzen- berger and Parker Lester on this trip.
 On the forage plots on old crop land at the Virgil Eckert and Irv- ing Newville farms, smooth brome grass, creeping red fescue and Russian wild rye all looked good. Kentucky blue grass, timothy and Reeds canary grass were showing up best on the plot on newly cleared ground at John Nash's place on Lazy Mountain.
