USD PASSES 10 MILLION GOAL

Further Campaigns Urged By Dewey to Meet New Army Needs.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7 (U. P).— The United Service Organizations’ goal of $10,765,000 has been reached and its campaign will have raised more than $12,000,000 by fall, District Attorney Thomas F. Dewey, national campaign chairman, announced today. Mr. Dewey said, however, that the rapidly expanding Army and prospects of retaining selectees more than a year will require an increased amount for USO recreational facilities for the troops. He urged that the 5076 organized communities continue their campaigns. He also announced that plans for the first 18 Government-built USO centers were approved in Washington and construction will start almost immediately. Plans for other

UNITY SEEN AS GREATEST NEED

U. S. Must Face Challenge In Future, Schricker Tells Club.

Unity during the years ahead is all-important, Governor Schricker declared last night before 200 members of the Irvington Democratic Club at the Pleasant Run Golf Course Clubhouse. He asserted that the great question before Americans is whether we can make democracy succeed during a period such as the one we are going through. “The readjustment which will follow the war will challenge the best in all of us, and the best in government,” he said. “What happens politically in the next few years is of little importance. “We must unite and stand shoulder to shoulder and work together.” The Governor's address was made only a few hours after Ralph Gates, new G. O. P. state chairman,

Hillis of Kokomo, his Republican opponent in the last general election, who is now heading the United Service Organization in Indiana. Othniel Hitch, club president, presided.” Mayor Sullivan attended. Members adopted resolutions asking for the elimination of a narrow bridge on Arlington Ave. over Pleasant Run and for relocation of a fire house in North Irvington to serve recently developed residential and business areas. The Mayor told members he would give both projects careful consideration.

where I met Gus Key, who is angular, nearly six feet and big hearted. A pub was his first port of call, where two glasses of beer cost him $29 because two glasses of beer meant two rounds for the house. Then, outside. There was no lack of transportation at this hour. A fleet of taxis was lined up and Gus Key became the owner of one for the night. Most every unbombed small store which shipmen patronize was keeping open. They knew by| morning much of his money would | be spent.

ihe gets from the paymaster at the lend of the trip is what he considers | surplus. To three pubs the taxi drove —and then Gus Key got to wanting a moosehead. He got the idea in a crap game on the floor of a pub! when he was trying to roll sevens against a heavy-set sailor called Alf, who had just bought a fur coat for his wife.

He Got It, Too

But Gus Key had already bought a fur coat for the wife the last time in, so to him at that hour a moosehead seemed the only solution to the gift problem. No one knows yet where he got the moosehead, but he came back to the pub after an hour, carrying it like the George medal. That's when I thought of “Room Service” the old Broadway hit. Because Gus Key's moosehead looked just as moth-eaten as the one they trundled across the stage nightly in that | play back in 1938. But came the dawn and Gus Key left for home in the taxi, with his moosehead. The others drifted away and then the waterfront spots were deserted. The fish docks, too, were empty. The extra constables who had been on duty were all sitting in the small wharf hut, resting and drinking tea after a night | which they said was hardly welcome

[been seized at the outbreak of war by the Navy for use as minesweepers. And if you do make a iot of money as a crew member of such a boat, there's not much chance of your becoming a shipowner until after the war.

Bombs Only Bother

But no man around this port is complaining about a thing just now, unless of course it's the great number of big bombs which have been dropped in the town behind these docks. A round trip takes only about three weeks and at the end of that time the captain is always certain of receiving close to 600 pounds ($2000), which includes bonus money; the mate can figure on at least the $800 which is 200 pounds, while the members of the crew always average 60 pounds. When three weeks are up, the bobbers who unload, clean and pack the fish, begin gathering during the late hours of night in the wharf sheds along the quay where the fishing fleet docks. They seldom have definite word that the boats are coming because no longer do these ships use wireless. But usually—as on the night I spent from midnight to {morning with Gus Key, first mate lof the Happy Barmaid—they seem to know when ships will arive. even once in every three weeks
