Rooster Dies |
Of Grief Upon: Losing Chicks
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 16 (U. B). —Roger, the rooster with the split personality, ‘is ead—his heart broken because he had to quit mothering the 10 chicks he
brought into the world five months ago. Fred Hale, part-time poultry
farmer who owned the three-year-old Black Sumatra game cock, told about it today—how Roger went on a fatal hunger strike,
» ” o “ROGER,” he said, “just withered away when we took his chicks away. He wouldn't eat. Last Wednesday I went out to look at him and there he sat, dead.” i ; Roger became a “mother” last May, when he hatched 10 chicks from a nest of 13 eggs. He would have had a larger family, but never having been a “hen” before, he was a little clumsy and broke three of the eggs while

Reds—after Roger began squabbling with the hens, trying to edge them off their: nests and acting generally: unrooster-like. “You never saw a better mother,” Hale said. “Roger taught his babies to scratch for food. He kept them warm just as if he had been doing this sort of thing all his life.”

By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct, 16. —Carefully guarded rooms in the Franklin D. Roosevelt library at Hyde Park, N. Y., and the archives building here may supply valuable and here tofore secret information in the eongressional investigation of Pearl Harbor, President Truman yesterday promised the congressional investigating committee full access to all White House records, including those of the late President, The Roosevelt papers represents years of secret filing, of massed records to which the public has had absolutely no access. When President Roosevelt was alive, he ordered many records and letters—all highly secret and having to do with the war—filed away in a little caged and heavily barred room tn the library on his Duchess county estate. ‘The library is federal property, but not so much of the correspondence in it, Impounding Order _After Mr, Roosevelt died, Mr. Truman issued what amounted to an impounding order, Where Mr. Roosevelt had ordered certain papers kept secret for a number of years, Mr. Truman, on’ advice of his service aides, decided that these papers could be examined when It was in the interests of the security and welfare of the nation. At the time Mr. Roosevelt died, he had in his posesssion at Hyde Park numerous highly secret documents... One of them spelled out in intricate detail the plans for in-
vasion of Japan. Other papers death with the highly secret atomic bomb,
On orders of the army general staff, picked officers hurried to Hyde Park after Mr. Roosevelt's death and retrieved these papers.

as a committee of the whole, following charges voiced last night by Frank J, Murray, executive director of the Indianapolis: Tax Research and Assessment association. Mr, Murray asserted the revised rate schedule was approved by the P, 8. C.,, without a public hearing, on the. same day on which it was submitted to the commission by Indiahapolis Railways, Inc, He also charged the railway company would make $600,000 more annually under the new setup. When the rate revision was announced last month by the P, 8B. C,, Indianapolis Railwdys, Inc., estimated it ‘would save the commuting public $100,000 a year. Mr. Murray said this estimate was based on an “incorrect” assumption that all riders would purchase tokens. He declared that actually, past statistics indicate 74.6 per cent of the riders buy tokens, while 254 per cent customarily pays cash. Says Ruling Ignored » Mr. Murray displayed a Publ Service , commission order showing the street railway company proposed its new fare scale on Sept, 5. He pointed out that the order approving the rate readjust ment was dated Sept. 5 also. He sald that in a similar case, In May, 1929, the then Indiana attorney general had ruled that no new rates should be indorsed by the P. 8. 0, without a public hearing. “You will have two months to come to the aid of the people of this community before Dec. 15, when the trial period ends,” Mr. Murray told the councilmen. t In naming the council as a committee of the whole, Council President Schumacher said: “We'll first have to determine
