This time it set aflre and de-

and other hays.
It was the third time in the
last 33 years that lightning has

farm, and the fifth time there
has been a fire.
In 1920 and again in 1922.
barns were struck by lightning
and destroyed by fire. About six
years later, a tramp set afire
another barn and it also was
destroyed. Then. in 1943, two
high-priced dairy barns we're
burned by fires started by short
circuits.
"I've had more than my
share" Mr.. Garrett said.
The building destroyed today
was hit by lightning about 1890
am. and burned despite efforts
of the Rockville and Gathers

Inside, according to Mr.. Gar

Dewey did not intend to run for
reelection next year if a place
would be made for him in the ma
tional administration. The Pres
ident replied that he did not
know Gov. Dewey's plans and
that the only thing he had was
a newspaper report and that he
could not comment on the New
York Governors plans. He said
that he did not have to eulogize
Gov. Dewey but thought that the
great qualities of the New York
Governor were we'll understood.
Beyond that he did not go.
The President was questioned
also about a meeting he had with
Paul L. Troast, Republican can
didate for Governor of New Jer-
sey, about two weeks ago. Mr..
Troast has been attacked because
he wrote a letter to Gov. Dewey
in 1851 asking executive clem-
ency for Joseph S. Fay, a con-
victed labor racketeer and ex-
tortionist.
The President replied that he
had been requested by the New

$4,000 American Troops
End Rhine Exercises
BY the Assoeioted Prsss

DARMSTADT, Germany, Oct.
%. - Nearly $4,000 American
troops ended Exercise Power
Play" today and military observ-
ers called the five-day maneuver
west of the Rhine River the
most successful operation of it's
kind so far.
One death was reported in the
closing hours of the exercise
when an unidentified soldier was
found dead in wooded bivouac
area. Cause of death was not
determined at once but an Army
spokesman said it was accidental.
The large scale exercise got
under way Saturday and saw
troops in action along the Rhine
from Mainz to Worms. The pri-
mary aim was to test troops in
river crossings. Two invading"
divisions and supporting tanks
and trucks crossed the Rhine
from the east in the first two
days.
The numerically superior at
tacking forces of the First and
Fourth United States infantry
divisions closed a giant pincers
to gain the high ground north
west of Kaiserslautern. The
drive forced the defending Sec
ond Armored Division to with
draw to a final defense line as

in New Jersey about two weeks
ago. He said that he met with
the Republicans and that Mr..
Troast was among them.
The President said that at
that time he knew nothing about
Fay and had never heard of him.
He was also asked about a visit
made to him by Ted Dalton. the
Republican candidate for Gov
ernor of Virginia. The President
said Mr.. Dalton came to see him
about the drought in Virginia.
Not a word of politics, the Pres
ident said, was uttered during
Mr.. Dalton's visit at the White
House.

Army and Navy Cut
In ManpOWer Is Seen
By Defense Leaders
By John A. Giles

Army and Navy manpower
may be cut next year while Air
Force strength remain approx
mately the same.
Secretary of Defense Wilson
and Assistant Secretary for Man
power John A. Hannah disclosed
this at a news conference yes
terday. But they emphasized the
objective would be to maintain
the full combat effectiveness of
the Army and Navy.
The cuts would come in what
they termed "back up strength"
that is, troops in headquarters,
supply and in other supporting
activities.
While the Joint Chiefs of Staff
have given Mr.. Wilson a pre-
liminary estimate of what they
think is necessary in combat
forces. they have not indicated
the requirement for supporting
forces, the official said.
S1U,OOU Tor Air Force.
DR.. Hannah said in reply to
question that ''I think the Air
Force thinks it can man 127
wings with $4,000 officers and
men by the end of the fiscal
year starting next July l." Pre-
viously the Air Force had been
allotted 100000 personnel.
Mr.. Wilson did not specify
how or whether manpower re-
ductionS would affect Americas
overseas troop strength.
The services will end the cur
rent fiscal year with the follow
ing:
Army. 1923 900: Navy, 742 500;
Marine Corps. $4,000, and Air
Force. 100000.
DR.. Hannah reports that IT.
600 civilians had been dropped
from the Defense Department
payroll since January l and that
the current civilian payroll of
$1,213,000 will be lower by the
end of the fiscal year.
Economy Effort Praised.
Both Mr.. Wilson and DR..
Hannah praised manpower econ
omy measures taken by the
Army, Navy and Air Force in
achieving reduced civilian pay
rolls. They said no reduction
quotas had been set for the
services since June and that all |
Of them had succeeded in elm
mating unnecessary jobs. The |
reductions have been running at |
the rate of between $4,000 and !
$4,000 monthly.
Mr.. Wilson began his weekly
conference with an expression of |
some concern about apparent !
misinterpretationS of some of his
remarks by the press but said |
that he would continue to en- |
deavor to meet with the re-
porterS.
Morale Study Under Way.
In talking about what he
thinks is his trouble with inter-
pretationS, the Secretary said
that:
IF I was asked what the
weather would be tomorrow, l |
might predict a cold wind would
blow. Then somebody might
come along, and write top Penta-
gonian predicts big blizzard to-
morrow"
In another point Mr.. Wilson
expressed concern about uni
formed personnel assertions that
the services are becoming less
attractive. A special committee
is studying the problem. he
added.
When he was asked whether
he felt the Korean War would
be finally settled, Mr.. Wilson
said. well I'm an optimist by
nature and I hope that some
thing constructive comes out al
though it's very difficult to judge
now"

Be EASY ON THE EYES
By RUTH NELSON SAWYER

NEW YORK - Di dyou ever
hang up the receiver after an
exciting invitation and then feel
depressed instad of happy be-
cause your hair looked so dull
and unattractiye? This shouldn't
happen to you if you take a few
minutes to study yourself.
If you work in an Office or
department store, it is very
necessary for you to concentrate
on keeping your hair in tip-top
shape. However, there are vari-
GUS hair styles you might try.
The style you would wear on a
date would be a little "fussier"
than the casual one you would
wear to business, or one you
would wear at home. Pamper
yourself just a little by setting
aside a little time just to ar
range your hair in various ways
to see which is best suited to
you. This will give you an idea
what to ask your hair stylist to
do the next time you visit your
favorite beauty salon, and then
take care of your new hairdo,
The next time the phone rings
you won't be sorry.

CHARM
BY Lou LuTouR

NEW YORK-Is your voice as
flat as a table top? Do you
speak almost in monotone?
Listen to yourself critically, and
if your voice does not have a
pleasant variation of sound, do
something about it. What?
Well, try reading aloud to
yourself, and listening to your
self. See if you can make your
voice run up and down, just for
the exercise. Exaggerate at first,
so that you will get the habit
of varying your voice tones.
Practice saying single words,
using different infections. For
instance you might say, WHAT"
as a question; What" as an ex-
clamation or expression of sur
prise. Try putting expression
in your voice so that you may
soon come to enjoy the sound
of your own voice.
Do these simple exercises each
day, and in a very short time
you may be surprised to find that
you had a pleasant, musical voice
all the time and just hadn't used
it.

TEACHING THE YOUNG

Those who have the minds of
the young in their care, who are
in the position to train, direct
and strengthen or destroy, should
take thought. 1t is grave trust.
Children believe in themselves
when they are young; their aspi-
rations and dreams are import
ant, their faith and hope is
strong. 1t is up to us to foster
or deny, it is within our province
