"WHAT YA MEAN, GENTLE
AS A LITTLE BABY?"
Well ...
It's a well known fact that a baby is not necessarily
always "gentle." What we mean is that Davis will
move your costly household goods as gently as
you'd move a baby. There's a difference! There's
a difference in movers, tool Next time Call DAVIS

by, Woolworth heir and long
time business associate of
Young, would take over the
chairmanship of Alle g h a n y
Corp., a holding company that
controls the New York Cen
tral Railroad and other inter-
! ests. Young was board chair
man of both Alleghany and
the Central.

years he has always followed
, a policy of being a "silent
I partner" in the railroad em

i Young, 60, who took his
own life in Palm Beach, Fla.,
Saturday, was taken to Rhode
j Island Monday in his private
(railroad car for funeral serv
I ices and burial Tuesday at
I Portsmouth, seven miles from
j his permanent residence at
i Newport.
He was buried in St. Mary's
(Episcopal) churchyard next to
the body of his only child,
Eleanor, a plane crash victim
at the age of 23.
Kirby and Young had been
together through thick and
thin since the 1930s. With
Kirby supplying the money
and Young the leadership, the
two men pulled a financial
coup in 1937 when they
bought the bankrupt Alle
ghany Corp. for a million dol
lars. That holding company, put
together by Cleveland's fa
mous Van Sweringen broth
ers, controlled close to $2 bil
lion in railroad assets, includ
ing Chesapeake & Ohio, Erie,

and Pere Marquette.

Procedure Changes
Cut Court Case Load
Chicago (IPI New Jersey
and New York managed to
cut their backlog of court
cases last year despite an in
crease in case loads, accord
ing to the American Judica
ture society.
Cases awaiting trial in New
Jersey were down 13 per
cent, while the case loads in
creased 15 per cent. Exten
sion of court hours, transfer
of minor civil cases from the
county and superior courts to
district courts and the addi
tion of judges and staff were
the reasons given for the
speedup.
The backlog in New York
courts has been cut by a new
rule this year that say cases
may not be filed with the
court until attorneys are
ready to try them.
to how Pratt was poisoned.
It was speculated he had
breathed monoxide either in
the expedition's two - man
tents heated with primus
stoves or from fumes from the
sno-cat vehicles used as trans
portation on the 1,300 mile
trek.
The Navy said two P2V
Neptunes would fly oxygen
to the Fuchs party. One plane
may attempt a landing with
the second standing by as a
safety observer but the Navy
said any decision to land was
up to the pilot. Otherwise the
planes will drop oxygen cylin
ders. Dr. Allan Rogers, a doctor
traveling with the Fuchs par
ty, reported he had given
Pratt what oxygen there was
available about 200 liters.
The Neptunes can carry in a
cylinder of 6,000 liters,
enough for at least two days.
Rogers reported Pratt be
came unconscious Monday,
recovered, and tiien lapsed
into unconsciousness again
Tuesday. At last reports he
was conscious again.
Hillary May Observe
Sir Edmund' Hillary, the
New Zealander who blazed a
trail for Fuchs across the An
tarctic continent from Scott
Base to the pole, also may fly
in on the observer plane. Dr.
Griffiths Pugh, a British phys
iologist, may land with the
other plane.
The planes will carry six
crewmen each. Cmdr. Vernon
J. Coley of Oakland, Calif.,
commander of Navy Squadron
VX6 will pilot one and Lt.
Richard Koch of Greenwood,

History
by ED HALL
Some of the nostrums (ready
to use remedies) of the 1 7th
and 18th centuries were so
highly regarded that rulers
bought the formula and pub
lished them for the benefit of
their people ... In 1740 Eng
lish Parliament bought one of
these nostrums against gall
stones for 5000 pounds so you
can see these were very valu
able and it was such sales at
these that brought about the
patent laws as protection for
such inventions ...
