averaged about two degrees above
normal. The high point was 95,
recorded July %, and the low was
81, July 6.
Rainfall for July was .54 of an
inch heavier than the average of
5.25. This month the District
may expect near normal rainfall
of AS inches, but temperatures
should soar above the normal
minimum of sc.
Some clouds, quite a bit of

secret hoard of oyster forks was
cleared up today.
It turns out the Navy doesn't
have II million dozen oyster forks

once reported. 1t has a mere
1858 dozen. And of these, TO-.
422 dozen are so poorly made thai
the Navy wouldn't dream of us.
ing them-except in an emer-
gency.
So the fact is that the Navy
is down to its last 1882 pre-.
sentable oyster forks and doesn't
plan to order any more.
A House Appropriations sub.
committee pried the story loose
from its shell in secret testimony
made public today.
Representative Taber wanted tc
know why the Navy stocked any
silver-plated oyster forks in the
first place.
How does it happen" he de.
manded, that when you go intt
the House restaurant you ge1
nothing but ordinary steel? W.
evidently are not as classy"
