Y., Feb. 22 This is Washington's birth day and the Weather Man, cockeyed as usual, stages another snowstorm the third since Michaelmas. The snow follows the coldest February 20 and 11 since the 1st World War. The latter would not have been so bad, had there not been a stiff north easter blowing. The wind has died down now and the snow with rising temperature is therefore welcome. ease It was Washington who could not tell a lie. This is proof that If he were alive today Washington would be an effective leader of the anti-Communists. For once more your corre spondent is Impressed by the fact that Communists not only CAN tell lies, but they much prefer falsehoods to the truth, prefer devious dealing to straight shooting at all times and under all conditions. Take the latest development In the Gubltchev-Coplon case, for example. Not wishing to be cited for contempt of court, we can't be too explicit. But the real low-down In this sudden firing of the irrepressible Archie Palmer and the taking on by Judy of three new and fellow travelling attorneys appears to have been a typical Moscow maneuver. Whether Archie was in the plot or not we don't know, but we would doubt it. There is no reasonable doubt, however, Judy was, and the entire hocus-pocus obviously an effort to secure a mis trial by the specious Plea of a delay of two months being necessary for the Red legal trio to properly prepare their case. Such a long delay, coupled with the claim that Miss Coplon had never been competently represented by counsel, would in all probability, have led to a mistrial, or been ground for reversal of whatever verdict might have resulted. Fortunately Judge Ryan is not only an exceptionally good Judge, but a shrewd trial lawyer an unusual combination. He was very guarded in his comments, and as usual restrained and con siderate, but not only the defense but the entire court room suffered a real shock when he stated there was reason to ques tion the "good faith of the defense." There was, and is. After our experience In the Communist trial of four months ago, we would expect slick, underhanded shenanigans from the legal defense in any trial where the issue was Communism or something closely related to Communism, e e We were somewhat surprised to note in the always reliable Medford Mail Tribune, that the speaker at Medford's Lincoln Day banquet, Senator George Malono of Nevada, stressed the necessity of a return to the principles of the OOP protective tariff, and predicted that by September, there would "be no other comparable issue in the congress of the United States." Shades of William McKinleyl Can it be true that the Nevada Senator really represents the sentiments of the Republican minor ity? If so then, "bye, bye blackbird" another landslide for the democrats. Doesn t the senator from Smoot-Hawlcv tariff Drinciple Europe economically and play directly into the hands of Uncle Joe? How can any country in Europe pay its debts or keep solvent, except by paying off in GOODS to the U.S.A. via a continuation ot the reciprocal trade principle? Mavor O'Dwver has decided maker to solve the municipal water problem. One of his aides traveled up the Hudson and found that the General Electric ex perts seriously believe that sprinkling the clouds via airplane with certain chemicals can bring rain. Well, with mid-summer only 90 days away and with the water reservoirs less than half full, something must be done if New. York is to escape a major catastrophe. What is one man's meat, however, is still another man's ?olson. How about the up-state farmers for example, if the New ork-madc rain comes when their hay is down, or they want to plant "Inters?" Rural up state doesn't like Manhattan any too well as it is, with New York running the climate to suit the city-dwellers and ruin the farmers, Father Knickerbocker will be about as popu lar in surrounding areas, including rural New Jersey and Connecti cut, as an ulcerated tooth at a "coming out" party. One thing is reasonably certain Mayor O'Dwyer better forget this rain-mtik-ing proposal or abandon his plan to run for governor. a What fool mortals we be! It took a major catastrophe, the "Slocum disaster," to make boat travel safe in coast waters, and another major catastrophe, the Iroquois theater fire, to make our theaters safe for theater goers. It now develops that it took the worst train wreck in New York history the crash on the Long Island railroad to bring about modernization of rail transportation in this region. Automatic tripper devices which can be set up at the cost of a few dollars in 24 hours, will now be installed where last Friday night two trains crashed because such cafeguards had not been utilized and as a result 100 Injured. Experience, no doubt, is a good teacher, but WHAT a costly one! Strolled over to the Hudson river yesterday and enjoyed an unforgettable and unprecedented sight, namely: Atlantic liners coming into porl, coated with Ice from bow to stern as well as upper-rigging, a dazzling, fairyland scene in the bright sunshine reminded us of those old-time Christmas cards, which had been sprinkled with crystal dust or something similar. One of the ships was the army transport General McHae from Bremerhaven, Germany, loaded with over 1000 DP's. who in spite of the icy background and record low of five above zero, were waving and laughing and cheering several of them holding up babies wrapped up in parka-hood outfits like Eskimo offspring all in all both a beautiful and inspiring sight. The DP's Incidentally, we observed, did not look ill-clothed or poorly fed. but we don't know about the housing. For several months the writer has been trying to find "decent housing" for a nephew and his mother here in New York and thus far "no soap." There have been a number of nibbles but no fish on the hook as yet. There is a Sportsman show down at Grand Central Palace and its quite a workout. In only one section can one sit down and Hint is at Ihe Schaffer Beer exhibit, where they don't serve beer and all one can see Is a "famous Cuban cartoonist" draw ing pencil portraits of passersby, 09 per rent of them high school hoys and girls the older boys and Eirls apparently can't take it. Or at least tliev don't. Tho portraits we checked on were reasonably accurate but like II. ing. That, no doubt. Is Ihe reason, R.W.R. Martian Activities By J. Hugh Pruett Afrnnmr. Kxtenttnn Olvlslen, orraim Higher Kdilratlnn Silrm The report that an amateur nstronomer, Tsuneo Saekl of Osaka. Japan, observing January 10 with nil 8-inrh reflecting tel escope, had seen a terrific ex plosion on Mars, was widely re ported by the press. What seem ed to be a volcanic eruption had sent a grayish cloud of 1100 miles diameter about tiO miles into the Martian atmosphere. At this writing. February 1. no confirmation seems available from other astronomers. The facts that a relatively small tel escope was used, the observer "has no place of scientific honor in Japan," and Mars was not at a favorable distance for ' good seeing," make one feel that per bans some nver-enthnsiastic state- I ment by Saekl had seemed to possess such startling possibilities that It was considerably over done In the news. Holds Great Charm Consideration of conditions on Mars and the other worlds of our great solar family holds a great charm for most of us. May be we shall sometime go there and inspect at close range, but at present wo can only gaze from alar and cpntecture- But doesn't it serin slightly selfish on the part of mere earth dwellers to assume" that Just because we are on the earth, our insignificant little planet Is the favored one among all the billions of celes tial bodies in the Imniensitv of ' I ' ,. " ' . Earlier this century we read a great deal about signal light' on Mars and their possible sig- nificHiice.

The con troversial canals will not be con sidered here. Frost Seen In the sunrise regions It seems certain thai frost has been seen. Whitened areas change color shortly alter sunlight falls on them. The polar regions are cov ered Willi white, generally con sidered to be real snow, at the winter seasons. Small cloudy reg ions have been noted, but some have thought they might at times he dust storms. On the visible rim of INI lira, high clouds have sometimes been seen entirely de tached from the solid surface. As to flashes on Mars, it Is reliably reported that Mitchell in 1B4H and Green in 1877 defi nitely noted such phenomena. In 1894. the noted Martian stu dent Lowell, while observing the polar cap, suddenly noted two brilliant points of light (lash out In far greater brilliance than the surrounding snow. After a short time both slowly disap peared. Checkings with Ihe earl ler reports showed that all the observed 'signals from Mars" were at Ihe same latitude of the planet. 76 degrees south It was generally surmised that there likely was an icy slope which, j when turned Just right In rela tion to the sun and the earthly observer, gave a strong reflec-' lion. Just as is often received from a distant automobile wind shield. That these were signals to us from intelligent Martians seems rather unlikely.

I Crosston 'You're always bringing lomebody home unexpectedly for meals, Today you're unexpectedly taking three of us to lunchl" A Nichols' Worth of Comment On By HARMAN United Press Washington. Feb. 25 lU.R) Father John gets a lot of GI fan mail. Much of it comes addressed to: "Father John, St. Peter, God and the Angeles, Phila delphia." H i s corres pondents could add: "And one of the hottest clarinet play ers in the busi ness." Father John is the Rev. John Pnsitano. who played Uarnurj Nichols with several name bands before he became a Catholic priest. He was one of the more popular entertainers in the U.S.O Father John Is a supporter of the president's committee on re ligion and welfare in the armed services. The committee mel here today to see what it could do to find a substitute for the finnncially-pinched U.S.O. "Seems to me," Father John said, "that America takes a long nap between wars. We have all these kids in uniform, about 60 per cent of them under 25. They now don't even have a place to sit down and write a letter or have a coke. It's a shame." Still Going Strong But you can't slop a man like Father John. He's still going strong. Since he became a priest he has worn out, by actual count, four saxophones and two clarinets entertaining something like 25.000 veterans and service men a year. "I wow 'em with 'Sweet Geor gia Brown'," said the Benny Goodman of the cloth. "The boys like it hot and that's the way I give it to 'em." Father John is as serious, at times, as he is "hot" at others on the clarinet. He thinks that a pretty good substitute for the U.S.O. would be a program for the boys sponsored by local mer chants who "get most of the boys' paycheck anyhow." Proud of Billing The padre is known around Ihe circuit variously as the " priest who plays his prayers" and the fellow who puts out "Father John's medicine'' in service hospitals. He's proud of his billing and says his cardinal gave him a quick "go-ahead" on Ins work with the servicemen and women. There is a legend that once sailors aboard a ship coming up the eastern seaboard threatened mutiny unless they could dock snmrvhore near Philadelphia. Thev had heard that Father John and his clarinet were in the neighborhood When vnu men- lion that tale, the parde gives you a grin and makes no com ment. In his Philadelphia parish has helped train more than 100 persons for his service entertain ment units. He has helped cops, firemen, cab-drivers and bar tenders. Some of ttiem have de veloped into professionals. There is Accordionist Mickey Capp. He was going tonight DllibUI FIIAnrAT mi i ninniiii in iiipii iAjT!'.

To the Editor: As a fan and support of our baseball club. I cannot see why the name of the club needs to be changed every year. I should think that the fans who come to see our boys play would have some choice as to the name, if a change is nec essary. We have hopes that the club can be made permanent and not be renamed every time the stockholders have a meeting. Most of the fans I have talked to were pleased with the name iNuggets. M. B. Sweet Behind the Air Curtain To the Editor: Just before Christmas, a scientist was broad casting over a California station telling of a strange craft of tre mendous proportion having crashed in a Chicago airfield. It contained nine occupants, all little men, and thev were dead when found. Then, this man was abruptly shut off the air. Later, he gave a lecture In an Oakland auditorium on the same subject, stating that some of the small type, globe-shaped, objects sighted, were thought to be real ly controlled, high-speed photo graphic equipment and most of their activity seemed to be cen tered around Chicago. wow. why have all these re ports been ignored or hushed up, so suddenly by various high gov ernment officials? Surely if Ihesc stories are a hoax or publicity stunt, they should be exposed as such. However, if they arc true then the general public has the rirfht to know about all the informa tion gathered to date. "Saving face." to most of usi is of littic consequence. Compared to the magnitude of sucli a revelation as this could oe iu outers, n is regaroeo wun the utmost importance. Anyone interested further in hplsttrh strange happenings, should read Keport on the Bainhouse Effect," published in Colliers magazine two issues back. Mrs. Margaret L.

Californian says that Seattle, Wash., isn't the only place where a bride is presented with a cook book when applying for a mar riage license. She says she was given a cookbook in San Fran cisco in 1926 when applying for a marriage license. "A good cookbook, too," she adds. "I still have it." Very interesting. But why hn't the prospective bride groom presented with some kind of book, too? Just what kind of book I can't say offhand. One titled "Forty Ways to Amuse a Wife" might be appropriate. Health It was Ed Howe who so truly said: "Probably the simple facts about health are that all of us form bad dietary habits when we have young stomachs and con tinue in them when our stomachs show the natural wear of long use. Stomachs weaken as do eyes, but we can't buy spectacles for our stomachs." Asides In Richmond Hill, borough of Queens, there is an eatery named Hughes Irish House, which announces it features "Chinese American cooking." . . . Writes a Seattle, Wash., sub scriber: "My wife and I have been married 21 years and are expecting our first baby in March. Can Brooklyn top that?" Nobody I know in Brooklyn can. Closest I can come to it any where is the record of Alice Roosevelt Longworth. who was married 19 vears before she had her first child. Asking Queries from clients. Q. Isn't Johnston a name more common In the Day's By FRANK JENKINS JUST FOR the fun of it. let's do a little reasoning today taking as our subject this busi ness of buying up agricultural products with tax money to keep prices high. Let s start with the system we're using now. WE SET a price for various crops below which we won't let the price fall. We keep the price up to "parity" by going into Ihe market and buying and storing. In that way, we accom plish two things: 1. We keep the price up. 2. By keeping the price up, we. stimulate more production. IT'S GETTING to be a mess. Consumers are kicking on high prices. Foreigners are com ing in and under-selling us. The warehouses are getting so full that the time is approaching when we'll have to start destroy ing food beginning, of course, with the perishables. . Destroying food goes against every human Instinct. THE END result will be sharp limitation not merely of what can be planted but of what CAN BE SOLD. That will mean an ar tificially created economy of scarcity. FACING THAT (and not liking its looks) we're beginning to talk of a new scheme. We call it the Brannan plan. We say: Guarantee the farmer's annual INCOME. Then let prices fall to whatever may be the supply and demand level. Write the farmer a government check for the dif ference, whatever it may be. That will give consumers the advantage of lower prices. ET'S CONCEDE this much: It makes more Muse than the firesent system. At least it would et the ronsumer buy at a lower price. That would be something. B UT Suppose you were a potato grower, or a pear grower, or a producer of any other quality crop. Suppose we get the Bran nan plan, or something similar. You'd know your Income was guaranteed. It would make no Ho w To Reduce Payments ii 1 1 nil mini ii i it t i i ilium i i m mi ii hi Mt" ' in the United States than Smith? A. No, sir. The Smiths tops the list. However, there are more people in the country named Johnson than there are Brown and Jones. Q. I have heard many versions as to how Man o' War happened to lose the one race of his career to Upset. What's yours? A. Man o' War was off badly. Then later in the race he. was shut off at the point where he should have made his bid. Loftus on Mum- o' War wanted Knapp on Upset to give him rac ing room, but Knapp refused. Loftus then had to pull Big Red up a bit and take him to the out side. If I haven t got this right I sure am going to hear from Clem McCarthy at 2 a.m. tomorrow. Asides How do you pronounce Chi cago? One Chicagoan claims it should be pronounced She-ka- go." ... It is said that Elijah Beardsworth, champion British barber, once shaved 70 men in half an hour. . . .

Very interesting Brings to mind there is a man in Pawhuska, Okla., named wel come Dear Pearson. Also in Lon don there is a charming young woman named Eva May Kick. . . . Some of the current film stars have really been up there near the top for a long time. For example, the four leading mm box office attractions of 1936 were: 1. Shirley Temple; 2. Clark Gable: 3, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers; 4, Robert Taylor. These cinema luminaries are still doing all right. Passing By Sid Caesar. Whimsical stage and night spot comedian. Sid is 1 the first native Hew Yorxer to ' H foatiirori at the WpriETwnnri room of the Waldorf - Astoria. Don't know why a native of New York City has not previously News difference to you dollar-wise whether you grew good stuff or bad stuff. What would you do? Well, for a while your NA TURAL PRIDE would keep you growing good stuff. But in the course of time you'd realize that it made no difference whether you grew good stuff or bad. I'm afraid that when this realization came to you forcibly, you'd shrug your shoulders and say "what the heck!" When that time came, you'd be a PEASANT not an up-and-coming American farmer. I REALIZE that as long as we take care of everybody else by laws and subsidies we must take care of the farmer by laws and subsidies. But I grew up on a farm. I hato to think of Ihe time when the American farmer might fall to the status of a mere pensioner of Ihe government, go ing through the motion of rais ing crops but knowing all the time that it made no difference whether he grew much or little, whether he handled his land well or poorly, whether he grew good stuff or bad stuff that his government check would take care of him anyway. Cartoonist, Reporter1 Receive Broun Awards Washington, Feb. 25 (U.R) Herbert Block, cartoonist for the Washington Post, and Ted Pos ton. Negro reporter for the New York Post, have received the Heywood Broun award of the CIO's American Newspaper guild. The award recognized out standing service to the public "in Ihe spirit" of Broun. late col umnist and founder of the guild. Block and Poston received S500 each. It was the first time the award was presented to the men for separate entries. PERSPECTIVE . . . is very important in everything we do, lay or think. Some times we sort of lose our proper perspec tive, in the "confu sion of tongues' going on around ui. We listen to people on the ra- dio arguing about thingi on ' vhich they are often not ell informed. We hear conversation about "Congress should pasi luch and such a 'Health Bill'." been billed at -tills spot There are certainly enough topflight comedians claiming New York City as their birthplace. As for example. Jimmy Durante, Eddie Cantor, Georgie Jessel and Mil ton Berle. Egg Enthusiast When a ftian testified In a London court that he had eight eggs for breakfast daily the mag istrate, expressing surprise, said: "The only man I ever heard of having nearly that number of eggs for breakfast was Primo Camera, the boxer and wrestler. He had only seven eggs in an omelette every morning." This brings , to mind that although Camera, .during- his boxing ca reer, visited England, he was not permitted to fight there. The authorities said he was too big, too powerful, to fight an average sized man. They said he "might kill somebody." Strangely enough a short -time after that Ernie Schaaf. the American box er, died after a bout with Car-nera. Health, Happiness .
