We don't mean the slums alone, although thev are unsDeak ablv filthy, but the entire town. And the surroundina air is full of dust and dirt, as one's shirt collar testifies after a few hours ex posure. Not as bad as Los Angeles or Chicago, but far from what it was au or iu years ago. men one couia wear a wnue snirt lor three or four days and not appear too disruplable. Also one could save in laundry bills quite an item when one's weekly stipend varied from $15 to $30 a veek! No saving in laundry nowadays! a Yesterday we took a stroll up above 100th street in the Negro and Filipino sections. Why doesn't "Life" magazine take some snots of that part of town and issue a special "clean-up" feature. Filth is the word for it, filth vegetable and animal if there were any minerals in that section except tin-cans they too would be contaminated. "Dead End" kids playing baseball in the streets, with trucks, wagons and push-carts on the prowl. Why there are not more people, young and old, killed in the streets of this man's town, is a major miracle. Ninety-nine per cent of them pay no more atten tion to to red lights or the traffic rules tiian they do to the sanitary code. a It'g a mess. And the more one sees of this Bibulous Babylon the more one is impressed, and depressed by it. . Who is to blame for such a condition? The street department? The city sanitary force? Mayor O'Dwyer? They all pass the buck to ine city treasury and lack of lunds. We can't believe cleaning up the streets would be so expensive. If Mayor O'Dwyer had directed his treasury department to devote those post-campaign salary boosts to a street-cleaning crusade, in stead of lining the pockets of himself and pals so they could spend the winter sunning themselves in Florida, we venture to say the job or a major portion of it could have been accomplished. For once we agree with the local communists. In their May Day parade, only about half as lurge as last year's one of the floats pictured the "Glamour Boy" mayor sunning himself on the beach at Miami, while the town he was supposed to be running was stewing in its own juice, iney nad sometning there. This narade by the way was reminiscent of the old days at Foley Square when we attended the trial of the 11 communists. ror in the receiving stand at Union bquaic were the 11, the lour flushing Dennis giving the Moscow salute (reminding one some what of the late and lamented Alan Halcj and all the boys in great fettle. It was a bit incongruous, thousands of men, women and chil dren in that Red march through the down-town section of the city, and although the Hearst papers reported egg-throwing we saw none. Some of the Broadway "kids" gave the marchers the "bird" but all in all the marchers and the watchers were orderly, and undemonstrative. And of course these communists had a perfect right to march, and they have a right to join the party, and run for office, at least until the Mundl Kerguson bill passes, a measure, which by the way, the leader of the republican party, lorn Dewey, vigor ously opposes. And yet suggest that a college professor once inter viewed a leader of that same organization and he is pilloried as a spy, and the head of an espionage cell! "Who s looney now?" No doubt Soviet Russia is the No. 1 danger to this country. But second on the list we would put political partisanship, the placing of temporary party advantage above the national welfare. According to the United States Health Service in Washington, D.C., the hospitals of the country are so overcrowded because they are half-filled with mental eases. What would happen if all the "nuts" in the national capital inside and outside the congress were put where they belong? Then there would be no room at all for those suffering from physical ailments! Your correspondent has been greatly amused by the political reactions following the defeat of Senator Pepper of Florida. Something unique in history has happened, the victor. Con gressman Smathers, has been (in effect), congratulated by the poli tical heads of BOTH parties! Chairman Gabriclson, the GOP factotum, for example, exults over the triumph of liberty over socialism, rugged individualism over regimentation, 100 per cent Americanism over communism, etc., etc., etc., the "coup de grace" for the Fair Deal! The chairman of the democratic national committee, somewhat more restrained, congratulates the victor on his triumph and ex presses confidence that his record of constructive and enlightened statesmanship as a member of the house will even be surpassed by the record he will inuke in the senate! This is certainly something for the book. Imagine the hosannas and paens of praise and rejoicing from the democratic leadership if Pepper HAD won! But, of course, as a member of the party had triumphed the head of the democratic national committee could hardlv keep still. mucn as ne prouaoiy would have liked to have done so. In this particular instance the somewhat moth-eaten and battle-scarred elephant has all the best of it. For there is no ctenyinn the fact that this Dersonable voting Smathers followed almost word by word the republican committee line. We don't know how fully his campaign was reported in Ore gon, but there was a fairly detailed account here in New York which added up to this: Pepper was a pal of Henry Wallace. He was a fellow-traveler and Russian appeaser. He approved of the regimented state and opposed personal liberty. He advocated socialized medicine and the welfare stale. Smathers was opposed to all this and. if elected, would uphold the freedom-loving "American way." Naturally this victory put young Mr. Shathers somewhat on a spot, o when the Uabricl.son congratulations came in he pro ceeded as a good democrat to repudiate tnem and declare with a perfectly straight face. that he did not approve the republican line and on his return to the upper house would be a loyal and dependable supporter of the Truman administration! Ho hum WHAT a farce! This seems to be a season for disappointments, politically speaking. There was John Foster Dulles and now another of our former lavorites, ex-Governor Stassen. who is supposed to be president of a great university Pennsylvania but devotes most of his tune to politicking. Says Mr. Slassen: "President Truman is the worst president and the best politician in American history." Imagine such an absurd statement from the leader of a great educational Institution, what must his political and history pro fessors think of him! Does Stassen honestly believe Harry Truman has nuuTe a worse president than Warren G. Harding or General Grant'.' And how can he put Mr. Truman as a politician in the same class with Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the latter a super genius In that direction? Again it only shows what partisanship ran do to a man Hu man the undersigned favored for president above all other candi dates only two years ago! Ho hum! R.W.R. By Roland Coe to the Side-1 (Distribute1 Kiaa Features Syndicate. Ine.) V. Burling "Show them the one YOU caught. Dear!" In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS This changing-world note: Down in San Anselmo they have a city ordinance providing that horses must be tethered at least 20 feet away from dwell ings. Two housewives have just appeared before the council to demand that this distance be in creased. "Horses," they explain to the city . fathers, .. 'are ..UNSANI TARY. Their presence interferes with the use of our patios." I THE olden, golden days we were acutely suspicious of men who smeiled of cologne, but respected and usually admired those who smeiled faintly of the stables radicalism." It is proof, he says. that "the people of Florida do not wish to venture off the side roads of extremism or social ism." THE ECHOES of Florida elec tion at which young Smath ers took Big Chief Pepper to the cleaners are still rumbling up and down the politii ' canyons. The big medicine men of poli tics are figuring out what it all meant and, as usual, each fig ures it according to his own PER SONAL interest. For example: To Senator Taft, the SIGNIFI CANT THING about the Florida primary is "that the big labor people went down there to de feat Smathers because he was for the Taft-Hartley law." He adds: "The people of Florida were FOR the Taft-Hartley law, and 1 believe that indicates the attitude in other states." Jack Kroll. director of the CIO political action committee (which fought Smathers tooth and nail) views the Florida re sults as "the triumph of a sinis ter conspiracy to impose upon our country a cruel and reaction ary program." He adds: "The tactics we have just seen in Florida will be used in every state, and this challenge will be met." SMATHERS himself, by the way. calls the election "a vic tory of liberalism as opposed to VILL-M BOYLE, democratic national chairman, plays the cards close up against his vest. He congratulates Smathers on his victory, and wires Pepper (who will be a voting member of the senate until next Janu ary): "We are still depending on you for support in the demo cratic party's battle against re actionary republicanism. yHAT about Pepper: Well, he just issues a state ment expressing appreciation to his "noble, gallant army of sup porters" for what they did for him. He would have appreciated it more. I take it. if they had done MORE for him. but anyway he puts its gracefully. ONE IS reminded somehow of Plutarch's story about Aris tides (called The Just) in his big political battle with Thenfis tocles. On election day, . Aris tides was walking the streets of Athens when he was accosted by a strange citizen from out in the sticks. The citizen couldn't write, so he asked Aristides to mark his ballot for him AGAINST Aristides. lie agreed, but wanted to know why the citizen was go ing to vote that way. "Has this Aristides ever injured you?" he asked. "No." the ciiizen replied. "Never have I set eyes on him. But oh! I am SO bored by hear ing him called Aristides the Just." THAT happened some 2.000 years ago. The underlying principles of politics, including why people vote the way they do. don't vary much, you sec, from century to century. We flew into Manhattan last night from Florida. A rugged trip. Plane was two hours late on a scheduled three hours and forty-five minutes trip. Some of the delay was experienced at Washington, the only scheduled stop on the trip. The plane had to circle the Washington airport for 45 minutes waitine for a chance to land. Our dog was up front in a box. I was really worried about him. However, at the Idlewild airport he came out of the box with tail wagging. A remarkable animal. Unusual Weather Didn't get my wish to escape "unusual weather" on arrival in New York. It was rainine and chilly. I understand the rain makers hired by Mayor O Dwver had something to do with this oarticular rain. In any event, they took credit for it. The driver of the car that took us in from the airport was very bitter about the way nature, possibly aided oy the rainmakers, has been act ing lately. He said his flower earden has been ruined. Sun Seeker Rain is something I am grow ing very weary of. If things don't change I think I'll move out on the desert at Las Vegas, Nev., near the Flamingo hotel. Only trouble with living in those des ert places is that while you get sun in the daytime you have to do a lot of sleeping in air condition ed rooms. Anyway if a fellow came in right now humming, whistling or warbling that ditty "Singing in the Rain" I would throw my typewriter at him. Please Note The finest hair for wigs or toupees is that of Italian girls. This hair sells for the equivalent of S100 a pound. It is used more for male toupees than female wigs. From this Italian hair are made toupees which are practic ally undetectable. Among the world's best customers for tou oees are film actors. The fact that certain male film stars wear toupees has been given much Diiblicity. but there are also bald headed Hollywoodians wearing them who are not even suspected of featuring false hair.

Do you know who originated the sugar cube? It was Henry Tate. British sugar refiner, in 1876. Perhaps this isn't important information.

It is a club for shy people. It was formed by a taxi driver named George Alliez, him self a very shy fellow. George found he was so shy that lie wouldn't even kick when a pas senger gave him a small tip. That he considered a great han dicap to a man in his business so he organized the Club des Timides as a means of curing hinv'f and others of shyness. A club like that would go over all right in this country. Horses & Women Valcntina Cortesa. beautiful and shapely European film star, wore woolen stockings while in England.

The Santa Cruz and Ayala bridges will be rebuilt this year or early next. The Grange Growth of the Soil On Iwo-thirds of the land area of the Pacific northwest the nat ural growth of the soil is trees. Only a few valleys are fit for farming. The soil is not only good for tree growing but the climate, the native timber spe cies and the general topography combine to give us the nation's greatest natural forest region.

On nubhc lands or private lands, the forester and the logger must team up. if the basic iorest re source the soil is to be kept productive.

Each harvest must leave the soil in productive condition or eventu ally the wheat ranch will be come desert land and the forest land will become barren. The scientist whose business it is to find ways and means to keep agricultural soil productive and to improve its crops is called an agronomist. The foresters business is the same, except that rugged bodies and trained minds. Forestry is anything but a t moncv career, but to my mind this is really a strong point in its favor. What counts is that no nrofession has more promise of health, happiness, good human association, and of constructive work for mankind in it than the nrofession of forestry contains.
