ISOLATIONIST SENATOR SPOUTS A United States senator who has been conspicuous for his isolationism, even in the midst of war, has said that he has no fear that Congress would talk the United Nations Organization to death. Of course he has no such fear. He has hopes! Nothing would please the senator better than for the United Nations Organization to be talked to death. That is why he embraced every amendment to weaken it. He doesn’t want it to be a success. He believes in America for Americans, and the fewer the better. Due to the isolationist policies against national defense which he vehemently supported, there are hundreds of thousands of fewer Americans'. They were killed fighting the war he said would never come if we let Germany and Japan have their way. They had their way and we had their war. Now this isolationist who has always been wrong, assails the power given the President to send American troops wherever they are needed in time to prevent another world war. He says Congress should approve of it first. Imagine Congress deciding a question like that in time to do any good! The isolationist senator well knows that he would be the first on his feet with every kind of objection to-delay action. He would do his best to entangle Congress in parliamentary red tape. And all the while he would be shouting in hypocrisy that he was trying to “save American boys.” That’s what he said before. But a million of them are dead or scarred. Their bodies bear the ugly evidence of false isolationist propaganda. Yet the isolationists are still brazen enough to take the names of these men in malicious vanity. The value of armed force employed by the United Nations is speed. A force that can be mobilized quickly could extinguish a war before it reached world wide pi’oportions. The only way to assure that is for the President to have the power to dispatch our quota of United Nations forces where they are needed at the time they are needed. It would be better to lose a few men to stop another war than it would be to lose hundreds of thousands in fighting it. The fact that the President has the' power to use American force instantly, without first listening to a lot of isolationist blather in Congress, will have a great psychological effect throughout the world. Because of the power given the President, the chances of having to use it have been diminished. An aggressor will know that he won’t have time to overrun the world while Congress is passing a resolution.

PLANT STANDS BY.

Laramie, Wyo.—The U. S- bureau of mines sponge iron plant here, which was ordered closed recently, remains in a “standby” condition. Experimental test runs have been made by the plant since February of last year.

Mayflower Made Two More Trips Boston — What happened to the Mayflower after the sturdy craft landed the Pilgrims , at ^Plymouth, Dec. 21, 1620, finally has been told. Dr. Gleason iL. Archer, former counjselor-general of the Society of Mayflower Descendants, said that the 150-ton Mayflower joined the English fleet against the Spanish Armada 33 years prior to making its immortal voyage to IPlymouthIn crossing the Atlantic to the New World, the* Mayflower was damaged seriously by a storm and underwent extensive repains before returning to England in April, 1621. It never again reappeared in Plymouth. Archer, who is president of Suffolk University, disclosed that the j Mayflower sailed to Salem in 1629 j with a group of colonists; among them were certain Leyden Pil-

grims.

Again in 1630, Archer said, the Mayflower was one of a large fleet that brought John Winthrop and others to Charleston. Winthrop later become first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. On this last trip, neither the owners nor the captain realized that the vessel had any claim to celebrity. The Mayflower went down in history for a single voyage —that of bringing to Plymouth 102 Pilgrim fathers who sought freedom of worship in New England. What the Mayflower’s eventual

GERMANY WEEPS-F0R HERSELF The evidence coming out of Germany shows conclusively that even in defeat, the Germans still consider themselves a master race. And they still hope to avenge their last defeat as they tried to avenge the first. This means another war, unless Germany can be permanently stripped of her power of aggression. This is not as easy as it sounds. While our troops are in Germany, Germany is working through secret connections in Switzerland, Spain, Argentina and other “neutral” nations to rebuild the industrial empire that financed two German wars to conquer the world. It will do no good to prohibit the rebuilding of the German armaments industry in Germany and permit it to be rebuilt secretly in other nations. To prevent that, we must trace German financial manipulations and, if necdssary, we must get tough with the “neutral” nations who are attempting to rebuild Germany as a military power. As a cover for their warlike ambitions, the Germans are starting their familiar cry-baby technique. They are trying to create sympathy for themselves and thereby allay the suspicions of the allied nations who defeated them twice. They are now weeping over the hard lot of German war prisoners in France. They claim the French are working them too hard and not feeding them enough. This is an ironic complaint from a nation that systematically starved and tortured thousands of French prisoners while the Germans by scientific malnutrition attempted to wipe out a whole generation of French children. Among other things, the Germans complain that the hard heai’ted French compel them to dig up the mines the Germans planted to kill French, British and American troops. Why shouldn’t they did them up? They know where they are and if anyone is to be killed in that hazardous task, let it be those who set the death traps. Of course the Americans are more sympathetic than the French. Our country has not been periodically invaded and ravished by the Germans, as France has. We would probably dig up the mines ourselves, as we are doing in Japan. And if anybody got killed, it would be Americans. That must give the Japs quite a laugh. But the French aren't giving the Germans anything to laugh about. If the rest of the Allies handle the Germans in the same stern manner, they will never jeopardize world security again. Vive La France!

Bing Crosby To Return To Air

,What could be more appealing to a ’teen ager than Malted Milk Ice Cream with Cocoa Sauce! No doubt you have often heard your 'teen age boys or girls boasting of the “double scoop of ice cream with malted milk” they had for lunch at their favorite soda fountain. It is a popular investment of the ’teen age — and by no means ignored by the adults. If then, malted milk ice cream continues to become increasingly desirable at the soda bar, why stop there? Why not serve a malted milk ice cream at home? Make your own ice cream and your cocoa sauce too. Then open the refrigerator door some evening, take out your home-made delicacy and listen to the “ohs” and “ahs” from those 'teen agers in your home — or from your guests of the evening. It may take you a few minutes longer to prepare this delicious dessert but the enjoyment register■ed upon the faces of those who partake of it will certainly be well

worth the extra time.

So for a real surprise ’teen age or adult treat, try the following recipe and see how smooth, rich and delicious this malted milk ice

cream actually is.

Chicago, 111.—Bing Crosby and the Kraft Foods Company, his radio sponsor, have patched up their differences and Bing is returning to the Kraft Music Hall Thursday night program beginning February 7, according to John H. Platt, vicepresident of Kraft and director of advertising. The lawsuit started by Kraft in New York on January 3 has been withdrawn. Frank Morgan and Eddie Duchin will continue to appear with Crosby on the national network program, Platt said. Bing is starting work on a new motion picture in the near future and will be on location part of the time during the next few months, which will make it necessary for him to be absent from the Thursday broadcasts occasionally according to Platt. Needless to say, we are most happy to have Bing back on the Music Hall Program,” Platt said. “I know the radio fans will welcome him as heartily as we do and we can promise them that the Music Hall will continue to be tops in entertainment as it has been for the past twelve years.” • o— 1 Care of Flower Bulbs Is Given Lincoln, Neb.—Gladioli, cannas and dahlias can be dug up and stored as soon as the first general frost is past, Dr. C. C. Wiggins, University of Nebraska horticulturist .advises gardeners. Treatment of the flowers depends on the species under consideration Wiggins said, but in general they must be kept in a fairly dry condition and at temperature abovs freezing. Gladioli bulbs should be allowed to dry, and the tops removed, he said- They can be stored in a dry cellar either in trays or, if in small quantities, in paper sacks. Dahlias should be dug in clumps after the tops have been frosted and cut off. They must be kept in particularly dry conditions and often are packed in excelsior after the dirt has been shaken off, according to the horticulturist. Gannas can be stored immediately after tney are dug up. Wiggins warned, however, they must be put away so that surplus moisture will not start growth during the Winter. In the spring, gladioli can be cleaned, the old bulb removed and the new bulb made ready for planting. Gannas are cleaned just before planting in February or March, while the dahlias should be planted without further cleaning. Wiggins cautioned that each dahlia tuber must be attached to a portion of the old 1 stem to insure growth of buds. o “Blue” Discharges May Be Reviewed Washington, Jan. 30—The House Military Affairs Committee today urged the army to review all “blue” discharges issued since the start of the war and suggested new standards for all types of discharges. Blue discharges are handed out when the army feels a soidier is not entitled to an honorable discharge but that his conduct still does not farrant a court martial and a dishonorable discharge. The committee said an inquiry had convinced it that blue discharges were “offensive, illogical and unfair.” It said they “have the effect of dishonorable discharges” and that in many cases the Veterans’ Administration has refused such veterans benefits under the G. I. Bill of Rights. Th Veterans’ Administration, the committe said, should be stopped from passing “moral verdicts” on soldiers. o — Moon Contacted 4 Years Ago Is Claim Los Angeles, Calif. — Australian scientists made radar contact with the moon four years ago, former Australian Army Maj. W. E. Osborne said today. Osborne made the disclosure on learning that the U. S. Army Signal Corps had reached the moon by radio on Jan. 10. “We contacted the moon on many occasions in November or October, 1941, while working with Dr. J. H. Piddington, a scientist in the radiophysics laboratory at the University of Sidney, Osborne said. “The point that amazed us all was that we were able to get through the atomospheric layers because it was believed it couldn’t be

done.”

Osborne said that there was no possibility the Australian scientists were mistaken because no meteorite would be large enough to reflect the energy pulse. He said the report of the work was on file with the Australian Council of Scientific

Research.

In Dos Angeles to do secret research for the American government, Osborne predicted rocket trips to the moon in 10 years and that piloted rocket ships would travel to the moon in 20 years.

Fine Indianapolis — Geisha Girl, Japanese dog which once served in the Japanese army, may be a turncoat but she likes her new home in the United States and is learning to prefer a meat diet to fish

Marine Sgt. Clyde Cochran brought her home with him. He captured her from the Japanese on Okinawa. Cochran said she soon developed a strong dislike for her former fellow warriors and became an excellent sentry for the Americans. He told how she warned him one night in time to save his group from a Japanese patrol. She earned a Purple Heart that night. One bullet entered her head behind the right ear and came out above her jaw- A second nicked her tail.

Big Business Given the Nod

That the Republican party has “given the nod to big business” and told it to “go ahead and break the unions” was the charge of Representative John W. McCormack of Massachusetts, House Democratic Leader, in a nationally broadcast radio address. Representative M c C o r m a c k’s charges were substantiated by House Republican Minority Leader Joseph Martin himself, when he said a day or two ago that “if they acted in concert they could easily take the ball away from the Democrats,” and he and other Republican leaders strongly advocated “bloc voting,” as a means of putting across strong anti-labor legislation. McCormack, jn exposing this GOP move, stressed the necessity for continuation of a Dembcratic administration and Congress, “to maintain and strengthen the social gains of yesterday.”

JUST A BORN HAMFEMININE GENDER

The “fair” Republican congresswoman Clare Booth Luce is said to be going to do it again. Advense press notices drove her from the stage of an east coast summer theatre last fall, when she essayed the title role in a revival of Shaw’s “Candida.” The rest of the cast were professional actors; Mrs. Luce was a member of Congress going A. W. O. L. to get herself a little fun and a lot of publicity. The kind she got caused her to retire after one performance. She was panned not only as a hopeless “ham” but also as a member of the United States’ legislative body who should have been in her seat in congress helping

Franklin, Junior Is Like His Father

Roosevelt Jr., marched into the White House the other day for the opening of the National Infantile Paralysis Foundation Drive. “Ushers and guards grabbed his hand. Secret Service men greeter him warmly and one of the White House Secretaries placed her hands on his shoulders with tears in her eyes. He took it all in his stride and was as charming and as poised as his late father was, with many of the same gestures of the hands and the tossing of the head. “During the gathering it was Roosevelt who was the center of attention, completely overshadow - ing government officials, stage actress Cornelia Otis Skinner and the movie actress Margaret Taylor. “A newsreel was made.
