the only springless, clampless,
screwless ear ring ever made

not to irritate the tenderest ear,

George F. Lang of Jenkin
town, Pa., who got tired of
forking over the cash to replace
Mrs. Lang's laddered hosiery, is
going to make his pile, too.
Seems as though every time Mrs.
L. pulled on a pair of stockings
and hooked same to her garters,
boom! there'd be a runner. Her
husband ended that with inven
tion number 2,384,636, the stock
ing with the built-in metal snap
fastener. The Lang hosiery snap
per snaps to the garter, saving
time, easing strain, ending run
ners, and Improving the scenery.

rOKYOlSBUILT
I
New York, Dee. 15 U.R
Tokyo's Imperial hotel, which
stood undamaeed through the
devastating earthquake of 1923
can survive any war damage ex
cept a direct bomb hit, its archi
tect, Frank Lloyd Wright, saia
today.
The hotel, floated In mud to
cushion it from underground
shock, should withstand the con
cussion of the nearest miss from
ever increasing American bomb
ing raids. Wrciht said. A direct
hit from a B-29 bomb would be
another story.
. The rest of the city, although
it has probably the best fire pro
tection system in the world, is
vulnerable to bombs incen
diary and high explosive, the
75-year-old architect said, but to
do any appreciable damage
through its buildings, mainly
one-story, "the cost will be ter
riffic." And the advantage, in
Wright's opinion, is question
able.
Tokyo's business district com
pares with that of any modern
city, Wright said; its parliament
buildings are of heavy German
masonry. "Japan's factories pre
sent the same problem for Amer
ican bombers as do those of Ger
many, from which they were
copies." The emperor lives un
der a heavy roof in a highly in
flammable palace.
But the largest area of Tokyo
is residential, with one-story
buildings roofed with tile over
a foot or more of heavy mud.
Falling roofs may cause casual
ties, Wright ponlted out, but
but their construction also serves
to smother any fire which may
be started in the flimsy build
ings.
'Japan is the great stoic na
tion of the world," Wright said,
'and it is all built for disaster
Tokyo has been destroyed five
times since it became the capi
tal, and the Japanese can see it
all destroyed again as a matter
of course."
STUTTGART RAIL
YARDS OFNAZIS
unn
London, Dec. 16 (U.R) More
than 100 U. S. 8th air force Fly
ing Fortresses, escorted by 100
Mustang fighters, hammered rail
road yards north bf Stuttgart, 65
miles east of the U. S. 7th army
front on the Rhine, today In a
continuation of a campaign to
knock out German communica
tion lines to the western front.
The assault, made in weather
so bad that only one formation
was able to bomb visually, was
directed against yards in the
suburb of Kornwestheim, five
miles north of Stuttgart, where
lines branch off the "Karlsruhe
corner" of Germany.
Big RAF Lancaster bombers,
escorted by fighters, joined the
daylight offensive, striking the
industrial and rail center of
Slegen, 45 miles east of Cologne,
east of the U. S. First and Ninth
army fronts.
(The British radio, heard by
CBS, reported that the intensive
allied air assault on German's
railroads "had been followed by
a German radio announcement
that It is impossible to relax the
already drastic travel restrictions
this Christmas."

To the editor: As an ex-serviceman

To the editor: Army and navy

must fill. Dare the writer offer
a suggestion that may brighten
the lives of both those soon to
be convalescent and those who
must be more patient? It grows
out of his studies at Copenhagen,
of the Danes teaching wild-bird
music to blind children. This
technique the writer, before
World War I, reduced to pamph
let form. It was distributed to
institutions for the blind
throughout the English-speaking
world.
The suggestion Is: That any
one who feels prompted so to
do subscribe for the nearest Vet
eran's Hospital some good bird
magazine or some nature maga
zine with a bird department. The
writer' has been doing this for
some months for various Pacific
coast hospitals with most satis
factory responses. There is that
about avian song, even when the
bird cannot be seen, that appeals
to all men. It Is something sooth
ing, like the babbling brook or
the music of those Aeolian harps,
the wlnd-slnglng pine trees.
