Under urging by the Board Of

a panel to hear charges against
Mr.. Cohen. But Mr.. Nc
Cormick and Mr.. ,Stasen testi-
fled that Mr.. Cohen was not
required at panel hearings TO

fled. the complaining rank

by the panel.
Mr.. Stasen said he was fired
from his job in September, 1859,
about a month after he joined
the insurgent group and had
not been able to get work since
then. He said he was fired for
having an accident that never
occurred.
Mr.. Mccormick, who said he
was lucky enough to find a new
job after he was fired. testified
that only three of the original
11-man insurgent committee
now are working steadily. Some
Of the insurgents, he added,
have dropped out Of the anti
Cohen movement because they
are worried about their jobs
or their health"

What's Wrong With the Bridesmaid?
BY ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

who hires an 11-year-old girl
to baby-sit after school with
her baby who is less than a

was asked how she could en-
trust her baby to the care Of
an 11-year-old child, she re-
piled, "She doesn't have to
do a thing. She knows how
to use the telephone. All I
want her for is to call the
fire department and get the

case a fire breaks out"
Don't you think she should

In Potomac
By the Associated Press

The Interstate Commission
on the Potomac River Basin
reported yesterday that con-
tinued improvement has been
shown in the quality Of water
in the Potomac's North Branch
between Luke, Md, and Cum
berland.
Julian G. Patrick, commits
sion consultant, said the i'm
provement is reflected in the
Potomac River Quality Net
work Report issued by the COM
mission for the water year
ended September, 1860.
The publication is designed
to establish basic measurements
of existing water quality at as
many key points as possible
throughout the basin including
draining points in Maryland
west Virginia, PENNSYLVANIA anc
the District Of Columbia.
Mr.. Patrick said water from
the Savage River Dam reser-
voir is helping reduce the acid
ity coming from coal mines
along the Potomac above Luke
He also reported that aka.
Unity of the river at Cumber-
land has been steadily reduced
to under neutral by further cur.

All rheumatism isn't resistant
to treatment. 1t depends upon
what kind of arthritiS you
have. And what you think is
arthritis may be something
elSe-like myositis, burSitis,
neuritis, etc.
AS for coronary disease,
don't be a fatalist. We can
prolong life but you can
shorten it by resigning your
self to fate and not taking
your doctors advice.
DON'T LIFT your children
as if they were rag dolls.
I have seen mothers, walking
along the street with q young
ster, suddenly yank at her
child's arm, or, pull up on
the little arm when the
mother wanted the child on o
porch or in an automobile.
I have often wondered why
most kids don't grow up with
broken or sprained upper
appendages. Nevertheless, a
large number do get what is
known as a pulled elbow" I"

ordinary sprain. But the little

ter still, get out of the habit
Of jerking your child's arm

FAMOUS FABLES
By z. E. EDGAR

ORDER: Electrical In
ventor Nikola Tesla, who had
3 phobia about germs. was
almost antiseptic in his
cleanliness.
One day, in q restaurant,
he summoned the waiter and
placed his order.
But first" he told the
man, bring me a dozen nap
kins."
Meticulously, Tesla pro-
ceeded to wipe clean every
dish. glass and piece Of sill
verware on the table, using
one napkin for each utensil.
When he had finished,
there was a. pile of crumpled
napkins on the floor beside
him. Satisfied at last, he
prepared to eat. He was just
about to raise his spoon
when q fly alighted on the
table. With a Mortified gasp,
he threw the spoon down.
Waiter" he cried in a
panic, bring another table
cloth and a new setting"
AS the waiter went to do
his bidding, Tesla called
after him:
"And waiter. bring another
dozen napkins"
