429 NOW SUPPORT SEPARATE AIR UNIT
Military Experts Still Disagree on Advisability of Plan; Public Including Those in ‘Who’s Who,’ Urge Establishing Strong Force.
By GEORGE GALLUP Director, Re Institute of Public Opinion PRINCETON, N. J., Aug. 13.—The controversy over the question HIE the United States should have a separate airforce has come to a head in several bills now before Congress, one of them sponsored by Senator Pat McCarran. Military experts disagree among themselves about the advisability of a separate airforce organized independently | of the Army or Navy. The contentions of Maj. Al Williams | and other aviation experts who favor the plan are disputed by Army and Navy officials.) : In this controversy, public|than the arguments against a sep-

Raw Potatoes— Why Complain?
TOKYO, Aug. 13 (U. P).— Lieut. Gen. Telichi Suzuki, minister without portfolio, wrote in the newsaper Nichi Nichi yesterday that the Japanese people should be satisfied with raw potatoes so long as they get enough food calories. Suzuki, who also is head of the Cabinet planning board, criticized Japanese who complain and said “there must be something wrong with their brains.” “The British and German peoples are enduring hardships but life here has not actually touched bottom,” Suzuki wrote. “When we get enough food calories we should be satisfied. This time we should even be satisfied with raw potatoes. We should live and die with the state.” Suzuki said that people who complained were fools.

[JALOPPY PERIL STIRS FEENEY
Moves to Invalidate Junk Dealers’ Sales to Minors.
Sheriff Al Feeney today opened fire on junk auto dealers who make a practice of selling broken down jaloppies to minors in exchange for
payments. The Sheriff said that County Attorney John Lindner would file suit against dealers to void easy payment contracts made with minors without the consent of parents. In such cases, the County will see that the money is refunded to the youngsters and the junk automobiles are taken off the street, he said. “Too many youngsters are buying these bailing wire cars which are a menace in traffic,” Sheriff Feeney said. “The cars have defective brakes, if any, and defective lights and are causing accidents. “The youngsters as a rule have no money to maintain the cars and are driven to siphon gasoline from other cars. “We have a well-founded suspicion that stolen parts are the medium of payment—parts taken from private automobiles and exchanged for an ancient jaloppy which is a potential accident as soon as it hits the street. “The purchase of these cars does not trace back to legitimate automobile dealers.” The Sheriff said his attention had been drawn to junk auto purchases by several recent arrests in which minors had paid as little as $15 for cars.
