Pigs Turned-Up Nose

When a pig in a dirty lot turns
up its nose, the chances are that it
isn't being snooty about its sur
roundings. Instead, the trouble is
probably "bullnose, according to
veterinary medical authorities.
This disease, which causes SWELL
ing and deformity of the nose and
face, usually can be traced to filth
in the hoglot and quarters. The
bull nose germs enter the body
through scratches or other wounds.
Keeping quarters and grounds
clean is the best way to prevent
disease.

Bartlett, who represents the Terri
tory in Congress, of having been
instrumental in hiring to lobby for

know that the man they employed
to lobby for their statehood had
been for three previous years the
Washington agent for the Kremlin,
via Warsaw?"

hood committee employed Feltus
for about three months" but drop
ped him in July after learning of
his former employment by Poland.

appointment of Feltus, and didn't
even know him.

American League against war and
Fascism, one of the groups named
by Schoeppel.
3. Was a member of the Congress
of American-Sovie Friendship at a
time when Russia was an ally, but

ton was listed by House commit

ing instrumental in series of ev-
ents which, he said, blocked some
