To State SAR Group
Continued from first page)

dinner of the Delaware society,
Sons of the American Revolution,
here tonight. The event marked
the 163rd anniversary of the adOp-
ton of the Federal Constitution.
Perhaps the basic reason why
the American form of government
has managed to survive other sys-
TENS is its balanced structure that
gives free play to the principles
of diversity" he said. The impOr-
lance of this three-level system,
Senator O'Conor pointed out, lies
in the fact that no one level can
solve any of our major problems,
whether it be housing, social Sc
curity, or the like"
The three levels-federal state,
and local gOvernments-shOuld be
more closely geared together, he
said, particularly to safeguard the
economic stability of the nation.
Communism has proved itself
thoroughly adept at taking advan-
tage of national troubles and the
one development in America to
which they are looking forward
expectantly and with full conf
,dence is that our country will Ov-
erspend itself to it's own destruc-
tion," he warned.
I'VE must rid ourselves of the
false notion that the United States
is rich enough to ignore the Ordi-
nary teachings of experience and
common sense" Senator O'ConoI
declared. Unless there is far
greater appreciation of the dangers
OF unwise and unnecessary spend
ing, we will not only fail to stem
Communism but we will weaken
our internal strength, which is
what the enemies of our economic
system fervently desire"
Senator O'COnor also urged a
vigorous fight both at home and
abroad to stop Communism. Korea
ne said, is merely a local action"
In what might be d continuing SER
les of attacks on the world. The
essential, fundamental liberties
guaranteed by the Constitution are
again under attack, he said, and
we are at war to preserve those
rights for all mankind"
More than 100 members of the
Delaware Chapters of the Sons and
daughters of the American Revo-
luton attended the dinner which
was held at the Hotel dupont. For
mer Judge George Burton Pearson,
Jr' vice president, 6. =. R., pre-
sided.

Owl Called Stupid

CHICAGO - up - The owl

curator of birds at the Chicago
Natural History Museum, grants
that they make quite an impress
sive appearance
But owls don't seem to have
much behind the front they put
up" he says. People who have
studied them find that the young
are very slow to learn to feed
themselves. One saw-whet owl
that was kept captive refused to
eat liver put into its cage, appar-
emily not recognizing the meat as
food. But when the liver was
crammed into an empty mouse
skin the owl ate it at once.
THE crows and their relatives
the jays, are the birds that are
really intelligent"

NeonlnueQ from urst pagel
In a paper presented to the
American, Veterinary Medical AS
sociation's national convention, re-
search workers said that they were
able to isolate brucellosis germs in
more than Is per cent of the in
fected hogs that were slaughtered.
Brucellosis, sometimes called I'M
dulant fever in man. has long been
known as an occupational hazard
for veterinarians, live stock rails
ers, packing house workers, and
people who drink unpasteurized
milk from infected cattle.
Mr.. Young says that this study
emphasizes the danger to human
health from handling infected hog
and cattle carcasses, either in pack
ing plants or on farms where peo-
pie butcher their own meat. The
disease is painful and protracted
in man, and causes thousands of
dollars worth of loss in animals
yearly. See your county agent, or
extension workers for information
on controlling and eliminating bru-
cellosis, says Mr.. Young.

Sir Stafford
 Cripps Resigns

LONDON, (P)-Britain's econo- mic czar, Sir Stafford Cripps, quit his senior cabinet post yes terday, because of his health.
 Cripps, 61, long known as MT. Austerity" to millions of Britons, resigned from the ChancellOrShip of the ExcheQuer he took over in November, 1947. In that position, corresponding roughly to secre- tary of the treasury in the United States, Cripps held wide powers over the economy of Britain. He spearheaded the drive, recently successful, of building up Bri- tain's dollar and gold reserves after the postwar slump which threatened Britain's life as a going concern.
 He resigned because of the ill health that has plagued him sev eral years. He has colitis, a form of digestive trouble, and returned Monday from rest cure in Swift zerland and a vacation in Italy.
 Cripps' registration was handed to Prime Minister Attlee in the course of a 45-minute meeting

 Lyng said he preferred not to discuss further his reference to "outside interference or attempt ed domination at this time"
