When on soniey
long lorgotien
day tome Inven
tor of gadgets
brought forth
the paper clip
little did he re- Fui H. mn:. ti.
allze the terrible toll his Inven
tion was going to take.
Now we Mtand at a point of
decision confronted with an oc
cupational diease, chiefly prev
alent among newspapermen,
stenographers, filing clerks and
other people with time to kill
and paper clips to bend. Gentle
men, It is kill or cure. We have
on one hand the great expanse
f American Industry, all based
on that noble metal, iron. On
the other hand . . the paper
clip bender. SOMCTHING
MUST BE DONE.
This disease, sometimes re
ferred to as the bends (Russia
has another name for it) Is known
euphemistically to the medical
profession as P.C.B. 39. As an
almost cured P.C.B. 39 (case his
tory No. X-53011) we can speak
with authority on P.C.B. 39
(hereinafter referred to as paper
clip bending for brevity's sake).
A severe case (and we were
pretty severe) can ruin as many
as 30 paper clips every 30 min
utes on a good day. Some days
are worse. That may not mean
much to you as cold statistics (It
Is so difficult for us experts to
put these things over to you lay

of millions. Millions of paper clip
benders bending and ruining pa
per cllpa every hour. It Is a con
tinual bend, bend, bend. Touch
your toesles, bend-two-three-four,
bend-two-three-four. Take a deep
breath. Never mind, we'll take a
deep breath.
Benders are a great trial to
efficiency axperta, the US cham
ber of commerce, the United
States navy and some other
people we could mention. The
efficiency experts, whose motto Is
Waste not, want not," have fig
ured that If all the bent paper
clips were straightened out they
atill wouldn't be any good as
paper clips. Good for bead
acratching, yes, but for paper
clips, no.
The navy Is the big problem.
The stavy la worried about its
battleships. If industry con
tinues getting the bends and
millions, trillions and dilUons
of tons of precious iron and
eteel go Into paper clips where,
we ask. is the navy going to
get its battleships? Out of cab
bages? No! Sirs, the navy will never
stoop to that.
What is the answer then? Can
the president declare a national
emergency (we've still got the
old one, thanks) and declare pa
per clips out of bounds for in
dustry? Hardly. Would American
Industry stand for an ersatz paper
Clip?
But something MUST be done.
That, gentlemen, Is the problem
which faces us today.

TOKYO, Jan. 2 2-iP Japan in
a vigorous protest tonigni ac
cused Britain of "a serious un
friendly act" in seising 21 Ger
man seamen from the Japanese
liner Asama Maru 25 miles off
the east coast of. Japan.
The Japanese government, de
claring "forcible measures" were
used to capture the Germans Sat
urday, reserved the right to de
mand return of the prisoners
and requested a "full, valid ex
planation." British ambassador Sir Robert
Leslie Cralgie received the pro
test at the foreign office In an
Interview with Masayukl Tanl,
vice minister of foreign affairs,
who said Japan attaches "great
est importance", to the Incident.
The Asama Maru, bound for
Tokobama from San Francisco,
was halted by a shot across her
bows from a British warship. A
British boarding party seised the
21 German seamen of military
age but did not molest 17 other

He placed a revolver to his

of the shot but he did not die.
He did not even fall.
He put the gun to his head and
fired a second time. The result
was no more effective than the
first.
He fired a third time and threw
the gun away in disgust.
Then he walked upstairs and
explained to his wife and two
children that he had found a
gun and that it had accidentally
discharged as he was examining
it. That, he said, was why he was
bleeding.
Doctors at Bellevue hospital

They didn't believe the story un

The centennial planning com

of commerce here Thursday night.
In 1938 the average was 20 cents
and in 1937 19 cents.
One grower estimated the cost
of production at around 16 to 17
cents a pound average for the
coast.
Cessation of shipments of Ciech
oslovakian hops was a consider
able price-lifting factor In Amer
ican markets. The war scare sent
prices above 40 cents a pound, but
current quotations run from 25
to 32 cents.
Should the growers petition Sec
retary Wallace for a 1940 agree

gionally along the coast, and a
vote taken. A two-thirds vote is
necessary for the federal control.
Handlers of SO per cent of the
hops must sign up to make the
agreement effective.
Active buying In recent months
has cleaned np grower supplies,
dealers said. So there is no over
supply pressing upon the market,
such as usually gives rise to mar

desirable for eventualities, even

Detention in

American Vessels Held!
Three Times Longer
Than Italians
Aide Memoire Handed
to Ambassador by
State Leaders
WASHINGTON, Jan. II.-6PV-
The United States has expressed
to Great Britain "its serions con
cern" over the treatment British
authorities are according Amer
ican shipping in the Mediterran
ean area, particularly at Gibral
tar. This was disclosed tonight when
the state department made publie
an aide memoire, handed to the
British ambassador Saturday,
which protested that American
ships at Gibraltar were being de
tained three times as long as Brit
ish contraband authorities hold
Italian ships there.
The aide memoire. appending a
list of nine American ships de
tained by British authorities at
Gibralta- between November 18
and December 15, pointed out that
they were held an average of 12.4
days each, whereas Italian ships
were held an average of only four
days, and demanded assurances
that the examination of American
ships be speeded up. The present
situation was declared to discrim
inate against American shipping.
Protest Another
of Series From US
Tne protest was another In a
series of representations made re
cently by the United States oa
such matters as Britain's block
age of German exports, her taking;
American ships Into the combat
area, and her Interference w 1 1 a
American mails.
In addition, Secretary Hull
called the British ambassador.
Lord Lothian, to his office today
and drew his attention to the
Plight of American tobacco grow
ers as Britain's refusal to buy
American tobacco although, for
political reasons, she Is increasing
her orders of Turkish tobacco.
The protest, after recalling that
this government had already pro
tested British Interference with)
cargoes moving from one neutral
country to another, said:
"In addition. It now regrets tho
necessity of being forced to ob
serve not only tbat British inter
ference, carried out under tho
theory of contraband control, hat
worked a wholly unwarrantable
delay on American shipping te
and from the Mediterranean area;
but also that the effect of sueB)
action appears to have been dis
criminatory. "Since ample time has elapsed '
to permit the setting up of aa
efficient system of control. It
would seem that the present sit
uation can no longer be ascribed
to the confusion attendant on
early organization difficulties."
The aide meraorle went on te
say that American vessels pro
ceeding to neutral ports Tiavs
been detained at Gibraltar for
periods varying from nine to IS
days; that cargoes and mail hare
been removed from such ships;
that official mall for American
(diplomatic) missions in Europe
has been greatly delayed; that
in some Instances American ves
sels have been ordered to pro
ceed, in violation of American
law, to the belligerent port of
Marseilles to unload cargoes, and
there to experience further de
lays."
"It is further reported, ths
memoire added, "that cargoes on
Italian vessels receive more favor
able consideration than similar or
equivalent cargoes carried by
American ships, and that Italian
vessels are permitted to pas
through the control with far less
inconvenience and delay."
