SQUIRREL TRAPPED
IN CHIMNEY DIVE
Mr. and Mrs. Fermor 8. Cannon, 4235 N. Pennsylvania st. are entertaining an unexpected caller with a fur coat and are experiencing a great deal of difficulty in getting it to leave. It’s not politeness that is keeping them from just showing the guest or, “Here is. your hat. What's ‘your hurry?” The -visitor is a red fox squirrel
s.whichy fell-down- the fireplace chints:
ney sometime yesterday with a shower of soot ‘that scattered over hearth and living room furniture. At present the furry intruder is
“lodged on the damper and appar-
ently is badly injured. How to get the animal out alive and at the same time avoid its sharp teeth is a problem Mr, Cannon has yet to solve. “We: feel awfully sorry for him,” said Mrs. Cannon, “but I don’t see any solution. Getting him out is my husband's job.” Presumably the ~ squirrel had climbed a tall elm tree near the house and jumping to the chimney, slipped and tumbled down.

of New York urged that subsidies vel continued to prevent skyrocketing of living costs. The committee is considering house-approved legislation which would ban subsidies after {Dec. 31. The senate also is expected to pass. the bill. LaGuardia Maloney ‘was right, “I have no more to say.” However, the mayor apparently was not convinced, for he continued his testimony. LaGuardia, president of the United States Council of Mayors, said the nation “dare not risk what will happen if congress prohibits subsidies.” He added, however, that subsidies my reflect the price to she consumer or they will be ineffective.” ’ In New York, LaGuardia said, food prices have increased 39 per cent since 1941, and clothing prices have gone up approximately 30 per cent. “The price of children’s clothing is prohibitive,” he added. Consumers are willing for farmers to receive a fair price for their crops, he said, but they must also be offered food and clothing at prices within their reach. LaGuardia = recommended that wages and prices be adjusted— presumably upward in some cases—at levels where they could be maintained for the duration.
