TO HANDLE PETS
DURING AIR RAID
Cornell Vets Suggest Good
Supply Of Aspirin For
Sedative Kept On Hand
Ithaca, N. Y. WP) Want to
keep your cat or dog quiet dur
ing an air raid? Then have a
good supply of aspirin on hand.
This advice Is given by two
investigators at Cornell Univer
sity's State Veterinary College
in a report on the correct care of
animals during enemy attack.
Dr. Jean Mackerley and Joseph
Kane, who made the study, em
phasized that household pets
may become a menace following
a bombing, because they may
become so crazed with fear they
fail to recognize the good inten
tions of those trying to help
them.
In addition to aspirin, sodium
bromide was recommended as a
good sedative. It can be pur
chased from any druggist. For
both aspirin and the bromide,
the dosage is 2 grains for small
dogs, toy breeds and cats; 5
grains for medium-sized dogs;
10-15 grains for the large breeds,
such as shepherds and great
danes.
Protect Hands
The veterinarians advised
wearing heavy gloves In order
to avoid being bitten while hand
ling disturbed animals. Some
times the easiest way of hand
ling a fear-crazed animal is
wrapping it in a coat or blanket.
"Be sure," they said, "to keep
your face away from the ani
mal's head."
Provision should be made for
controlling horses during an
emergency in a city, the investi
gators reported. For this pur
pose, they recommend that a
strong web halter and a rope 6
to 12 feet long should be kept
on the animal at all times. They
emphasized that a horse should
never be tied by the reins since
those break too easily.
Protection lor the barn or
stable was also considered.
"Nothing," they found, "is ef
fective against a direct hit, but
fine wire netting over the inside
of the windows furnishes some
protection from splinters and
flying fragments. Chemists are
now experimenting with a new
substance which may be painted
over glass and prevent its shat
tering. This is a transpartnet
material and may be washed or
cleaned like ordinary glass."
Animals Safer Outside
Farm animals In a target area,
they said, are saftcr is dispersed
and it is best to keep them in
open fields if the weather per
mits. Where the stock is kept
inside, an attendant should be
nearby and exits of the barn
should be kept clear at all
times.
For animals which have been
injured during a raid and suffer
from shock, the most Important
thing is to wrap them warmly
and keep them quiet. Milk or
water, to which small amounts
of corn syrup or sugar have
been added, should be offered
to the injured animal frequently.
The animal should be moved as
little as possible.

of the famous 91st division, J
chorage was at Catalina island,
which la no longer a resort port
of call, so he is glad he sold his
yacht last season. Now he's
farming victory garden products
at his ranch.
Jackie Cooper, who often
sailed to Catalina, canceled res

War Work Instead
Another sailboat skipper. She
ila Ryan, who has won trophies
in races off Santa Barbara, is
skipping her vacation to go east
on a victory show tour.
Jeanette MacDonnld, who had
hoped to revisit Hawaii this
summer, gave up that idea on
December 7. Now at her Bel
Air home are Mrs. Francis Hal-
ford and her three children,
whom Jeanette had hoped to
visit in the island, as house
guests and evacuees.

When film notables do travel,
there's often a war reason, such
as Constance Bennett's trip to
Monterey to visit her husband,
Pvt. Gilbert Roland.
Glrnda Farrell is one actress

Dm MaU Tribuno nut ut
Hartford, Conn., Aug. 3 fP)
A self-confessed peace-time
espionage plotter bent on help
ing Germany and Japan obtain
U. S. military information, told
a federal court Jury here today
of one-time Bund leader Ger
hard Kunzes familiarity with
American military installations
and interest in posisble Pacific
coast 'arming spots.
He was naturalized Dr. Otto
Willumeit, 37-year-old president
of the Toutonia Publishing com
pany of Chicago, himself a Bund
official .who like Kunze has
pleaded guilty, and was on the
stand for the government as a
witness against the Rev. Kurt E.
B. Molzahn, Philadelphia Luth
eran pastor, charged with being
a member of the ring.
Links Kunte
Willumett's testimony, admit
ted over strenuous defense ob
jections, first linked Molzahn
with Kunze by telling how the
Bund leader had Informed the
Rev. Aleksi Pelypenko. a Uk
ranlan priest and countcr-es-age
agent in FBI employ, of ar
rangements for getting his,
Kunze's, passport pictures in
Molzahn's hands.
Then, testified Willumeit, at
a Chicago hotel cocktail lounge
meeting between himself, Kunze
Pelypenko and others, Kunze
said: "Pastor Molzahn would
take care of everything."
Kunze, it has been testified,
was trying to leave the country
to forward pre-Pearl Harbor
mUitary information to Ger
many and Japan.
Long Trip Told
Willumeit told the Jury of a
long trip which he and Kunze
took Inst fall through much of
the middle-west and west and of
Kunze's seemingly endless
knowledge of the terrain, of
United States military and naval
locations and particularly of al
iened weaknesses in the defense
of the west coast.
Although they drove thou
sands of miles from Chicago to
Seattle and from Seattle to El
Paso. Tex., and eventually back
to Chicago, Kunze never needed
a map to guide the way, said
Willumeit. Kunze then bund
chieftain, was making his semi
annual visit to bund locals and
talking with bund sympathlrers.
But always, Willumeit told
the Jury, Kunze's conversations
concerned military affairs, racial
groups in the United Stales,
arterial highways and United
States Industries.
9-Foot Electricians
Will Be Employed in
Fort Lewis Building
Fort Lewis, Aug. 3 OP)
Thirty or .forty nine-foot elec
tricians will soon be employed
in the construction of temporary
barracks at the 4th motor base
here.
The electricians will be equip
ped with three-foot stnls, which
they will wear throughout their
working hours, taking them off
only for lunch and when the
night whistle blows.
The stilts are the idea of
Charles McPhail, president ot
the Electric Construction com
pany of Tacoma, which has elec
tric contracts at Fort Lewis and
a cantonment at Corvallis, Ore.
McPhail explained the aver
age electrician has to climb up
and down a ladder hundreds of
times a day pulling vires thru
studding overhead, boring holes
and making light c iiinections.
In fact, the ladder must be
moved every 18 inches of wir
ing. With the stilts, the man looks
squarely at his work and uses
both hands. Time saved amounts
to about one-third of the total
job.
McPhail said he is already
employing the nine-foot work
men on the cantonment at Cor
vallis, Ore., with huge -success.

AVIATION FIELD
Wartime Program to Dwarf
Peacetime Performance
Planes, Engines on List.
Detroit (U.R) Nash-Kelvinator
Corp., which built its pre-war
reputation as a manufacturer of
automobiles and refrigerators, is
almost 100 per cent in the air
craft business today.
It has embarked on wartime
manufacturing program which
easily will dwarf its greatest
peace-time performance. At peek
production it will employ two
and one-half times as many men
as it did during capacity output
of civilian goods,
Nash-Kelvinator has tackled
three major aircraft production
jobs. They are:
1 Manufacture of Hamilton
variable-pitch propellers. Nash
already is in volume production
on this Job at one of its Mich
igan plants. Incidentally, the
manufacturing cost of a propel-1
ler of this type is equal to that
of three automobiles.
Builds Engines
2 Production of flying boats
for the Navy on a quantity basis.
This job is so large that several
plants, some of them in Wiscon
son and Michigan, will be re
quired to supply parts. An en- j
tircly new plant is being built
in Louisiana to handle assembly
of these giant freight carriers,
only two or three of which have
been built by hand.
Sub-Contractor
Nash-Kelvinators' shift from
civilian to war production has'
been described as a "colossal de-1
velopmcnt" by one of its own.
executives. Its most serious bot-
tleneck was obtaining enough
trained supervisory personnel to
push its various aircraft jobs. :
For example, Nash will employ i
nearly one-third of its full
peacetime manpower on assem-1
bly of the Navy flying boat i
alone. It hopes to reach SO per
cent of its peak war employ
ment by December.
Nash also has shouldered
other government war contracts.
It built thousands of automo
bile trailers for the Army in a
plant which has been sold to
another manufacturer for assem
bly of tanks. It is making parts
for Army binoculars. Nash also
is serving as a sub-contractor on
at least a dozen other war
products.
