then build bigger and better air.

Maj. Gen. Anthony C. McAuliffe
made the assertion in an inter-
view here. He gained fame when
he def1ed German demand that
his command surrender during
the World War II Battle of the
Bulge around Bastogne.
Gen. McAuliffe termed the
bomb "a strategic weapon which
would help insure peace" And
he added 1t is pure nonsense" to
say the bomb could destroy the
world. mo single weapon can do
that" he said.
The stronger we are," he said,
the less chance there will be that
somebody will try to attack u.s."
He said he still favors making
all units of the Army airborne.
And he added that top brass has
told him that the Army today is
better prepared than at any time
since the end of the war.

8 Bandits Captured
After Wild Gun Battle
In New York Club
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Scream-
ing night club patrons ducked for
cover when police and bandits shot
it out in frontier style early today
in a crowded Greenwich Village
night spot.
Five persons were wounded, one
critically, in the thwarted early
morning holdup of the Moroccan
Village Club in the heart of the
downtown night life district. The
wounded were: two entertainers, a
patron. a detective and one of
three bandits.
The holdup men were captured
after a wild chase of two taxicabs
they had commandered. Four
guns were recovered.
The gun battle broke out at 3:20
am. as the clubs final show was
moving toward its close. About 100
persons were in the club and its
adjoining bar.
Blackie Dennis, %. dressed in
mems clothing. was singing into
a microphone. Behind her was a
line Of female impersonators.
Suddenly, the bandit leader,
strobe up on the stage, pushed
Miss Dennis aside, and announced
through the microphone:
This is a stickup. Put your
jewelry, purses and money on the
tables"
He fired a shot into the ceiling
for emphasis and his companions
took up strategic positions at the
rear of the club.
Two detectives on a routine pa
troll. were in the clubs bar. They
emerged with drawn guns and
both officers and the bandits
blazed away. Thirteen shots were
fired.
In the exchange, Detective John
O'Neil was wounded in the leg.
One of the bandits. identified by
police as Pedro Gonzales OF New
York, also known as James Ford,
was hit in the stomach.
The three bandits fed, firing as
they raced from the club and
into the commandeered cabs. The

Delay Saves $4,000
On Spout Run Road

Work on the Spout Run link Of
the George Washington Memorial
parkway is nearly a year behind
schedule but the inconvenience to
motorists has resulted in a SAG, 900
saving in paving costs, road
officials said yesterday.
For this reason, the $276 OPT low
bid to complete the scenic link
above Key Bridge has been recon-
mended for award by j. H. Spell
man. division engineer of the Bu-
reau of Public Roads. Paving costs
last year were so exorbitant, park
officials rejected all bids.
Mr.. Spellman said weather con-
ditions probably will delay until
April l. the start of work by the
w. H. Scott Co. Of Franklin, Va,
successful bidder for the paving
job. Park officials were satisfied
with the bid and believed the wait
of nearly year was justified.
The Spout Run link affords
short cut from the Lee Highway
to Arlington Memorial Bridge.

herds in the neighborhood to a
frenzy and they tore Echo to pieces
and scattered the parts; and each
part retained the power of speech.
The cliche' "at long last" has been
traced in literature as far back as
1893. Many authors have used the
phrase. Lowell, in Study Wind"
wrote, :" the hearty abuse of
human nature, which at the long
last, is always to blame"
The expression was popularized by
Edward VIII (now Duke of Wind
sor). In his farewell broadcast
after abdication, December IL, 1896.
"A, little bird told me-" we say to
a child who asks the source of in
formation we do not wish to divulge.
Surprisingly, the saying has its
origin in the Bible: Course not
the king, no not in thy thought; and
curse not the rich in thy bed-cham-
Der; for bird of the air shall carry
the voice, and that which hath
wings shall tell the matter"
Alfred E. Smiths war-cry was:

"Slice 1t where you will, it's still
baloney." The phrase became popu-
larized as: mo matter how Cor how
thin) you slice 1t, it's baloney just
the same"
Baloney is an American corruption
of Bologna (sausage). just how
baloney came to have the slang
meaning, nonsense: foolishness;
rot" is uncertain. Eric Partridge in
his splendid book, Name Into
Word" says: Now sausages have
for centuries borne a dubious
reputation, and one of several oppro-
brious names is bag of mystery:
the larger the sausage, the greater
the mystery; and much so-called
mystery is hocus-pocus; in short,
mere nonsense"
An unknown sportswriter nick
named the wienerwurst sandwich
'hot dog" implying humorously
that the sausage was made of ground
dog meat.
The dictionaries list hot dog as
slang; but the term is good and
proper American, nevertheless.

Uncle Roy's Corner

When a river or small stream
comes to the edge of cliff,
1t tumbles downward and forms a
waterfall. The highest falls are in
the midst of mountains, but they
tend to be of small volume.
To be large, stream must be
fed with great deal of water.
The big rivers of the earth are on
low levels where they are wide
and deep. They rise in mountains,
to be sure, but their headwaters
are made up of hundreds of tiny
streams which at length gather to
form big rivers.
Yosemite National Park in Cali
fornia has several high falls.
Little rivers plunge of of ledges,
and fall for hundreds of feet In
this way they produce the Ribbon,
the Bridal Veil, the Upper Yose-
mite, the Lower Yosemite, the
Vernal and other falls.
The longest leap of all the wat
ers in the park is taken by the
Upper Yosemite Fall, which drops
utOIC b11dLl q 4udA OC1 Va 41A1O
The water takes three leaps, and
the total drop is close to half a
mile.
Oroco Falls in Switzerland have
a total drop of about 2.400 feet,
the Sutherland Falls in New zea-
land go down 1904 feet. In a
southeastern section of Africa,
we find Kalambo Falls, which
drop 1,400 feet.
All of the falls I have named
30 far have a small volume OF
water. If one of them had as
great a volume as Niagara Falls,
it would be a sight to startle all
the world.
As it is, Niagara Falls are the
greatest falls in North America.
The Niagara River drops only one
ninth as much as the Upper Yose-
mite. but what a difference in the
amount of water! Fifty falls the
size of the Upper Yosemite would
provide less water than tumbles
at Niagara.
Just the same, the Yosemite
Falls are sight to behold. Think
of water taking such long, fast trips
from ledges Of rock to the valleys
below!

Cotton Mills Must Add
100000 Workers 10
Get Maximum Output
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.-The Ma
tion's cotton textile mills will need
another 100000 workers If the in
dustry is called upon to make an
all-out war effort, the Textile In
formation Service said today.
The trade organization reported
on study made at its request by
Ralph E. Loper Co., textile engi-
neers of Greenville, S. c., and
Fall River, Mass.
Manpower and a scarcity of raw
materials. especially If an all-out
effort comes, has been worrying
the industry.
Extra Help Needed.
The report estimated that If the
cotton textile industry ran full
blast, making the same general
type Of goods that were made dur
ing 1912, it could reach new pro-
duction peaks, but it would need
100, 900 more workers to do it.
The report figured the industry,
under these conditions. could pro-
duce around 13 billion square
yards of goods, compared with the
1912 peak of IL billion.
The average employment in the
cotton textile industry during the
first five months of 1850 was esti-
mated at 472,000 workers, COM
pared with $4,000 in the peak
year of 1912.
Surplus Labor Absorbed.
The Nations surplus working
force is being absorbed rapidly as
the preparedness program gains
momentum, the report stated,
particularly in the Southeast and
New England, where the greatest
part of the cotton textile manu-
featuring industry is located.
Jobs in such industries as air
craft and munitions might be q
particularly strong lure for work.
ers, the report said, because they
might seem more directly con-
nected to war service"
The report, however, stressed
the Importance of textiles to the
national defense and had as q
background the recent tentative
announcement of needs of the
Army and Air Force for textile
items that run to hundreds of mil
lions of yards.
Industry leaders feel" the
study said, that Government and
military planners should consider
Immediately all possible measures
to assure the mills the number of
employees needed for maximum
production"
