PAINTED BUNTING

The Painted Bunting looks like
a small bird who had flown in the
window of a paint factory and had
splashed about in first one color
and then another. You might think
he had ducked his head in bucket
of purplish blue and let the drip
pings run down the back of his
neck. Across his back, clear to
the tail, is broad daub of yellow
ish green. The upper part of his
tail is dull red. To complete his
paint job, he seems to have landed
in a puddle of bright red, for that
is the color of all his under parts.
His mate either failed to go with
him, or she was more careful. Her
upper parts are an olive green in
color. Beneath she is mostly a
dull greenish yellow, with just one
patch of clear yellow.
Though he is one of the most
brightly feathered of all our birds,
the Painted Bunting is shy fell
low. He hides away in bushes,
thickets, and swamps, and is hard
to find. If startled, he will dart
out into the open, then turn and
plunge back into the nearest place
of safety.
Even when singing his cheerful,
warbling song, he rarely perches
on the top of a bush. Instead he
remains hidden, where he can be
heard but not seen. 1t isn't diff
cult to hear him, either, for his
notes are bright and clear. They
make you feel that he must be an
energetic bird with happy dispo-
sition.
The Painted Bunting not only
works hard at his singing, reports
the National Wildlife Federation,
but he also takes great care in
building his nest. After picking
out a low bush or sapling in which
to locate it, he begins to collect
leaves, twigs, grass, strips of bark,
and tiny dried roots. With these
he forms a tightly woven nest
which he lines with fine grasses or
horse hair. In the newly built
home are laid three to five small
eggs. They are white, with red

policy of initiating a bargaining
period of not less than 80 days.

the following statement today:
In the light of present develop

clarifying statements be made.

to all interested parties and to the
general public that the present
strike against the Virgin Islands
Corporation by certain groups of
the St. CroiX Labor Union is who'll
" unauthorized. Contrary to our
time honored policy Of initiating a
bargain period of not less than 80

native Ireland.
100 Claimants in All.
AS result Of the radio program
and Mr.. Cogswell's Investigations,
400 claimants in all stuck out a
hand for share in the estate.
Despite all the claims, however.
the wills register recommended in
l94S that none was genuine and
recommended that the District get
the estate. But new claimants ap-
peared on this announcement and
the case was reopened. In all. the
hearings took several thousand
pages Of testimony and more than
300 exhibits.
Key to the present solution, was
a tattered and ungrammatical let
ter written Andrew in 1885 by an
other Irish, emigrant tracing her
ancestry in the auld sod.
This led the investigators back
to church records in County Cork,
where further evidence unearthed
a nephew Of Andrew Collins. The
nephew. who still lives in Bally-
dehob, and three Of his sisters,
hired lawyers and asserted their
claims.
OF course. the losing contestants
still can protest Mr.. Cogswells
findings, and the case could drag
on in the courts for months longer.

$4,000 Estate Left
Here Without Will
Goes 10 4Cousins

The Register of Wills here yes
terday finally tied up the loose
ends of a 6-year- -old estate case
involving 900 left by WASH
ington man. who died without a
will and apparently without any
heirs.
In a report filed with District
Court by Theodore Cogswell, 1t
was revealed that the dead man,
James L. Collins. actually had
been survived by four first cousins,
two of Yonkers, N. Y, one of
Anaconda. Mont, and one of
Ballydehob, County Cork. Ireland.
None of the four ever heard
Of Mr.. Collins. much less knew
they were related to him until
after a commercial radio program
dealing with missing heirs barred
the details.
Two Of Beneficiaries Dead.
Two of the benef1ciaries, in
fact. have died in the interim that
Register Cogswell has spent track
ing down nebulous clues. Under
Mr.. Cogswell's recommendations
to the court. the estate will be
divided in four equal parts, two
shares going to heirs of the dead
mans two dead heirs.
Mr.. Collins. who used to stroll
around Judiciary Square with his
brother jeremiah for many years,
died in 1916 at the age of 10,
two years after Jeremiah's death.
jeremiah, newspaper printer,
willed his brother $4,000. source
of which has never been learned.
How James ever swelled his for
