SURPRISE
SALT LAKE CITY, Oct, 25 tVP)
"Golly, that's a tough-rooted
tree," said workmen for a Salt
Lake construction company as
signed to dig a trench across a
city street. Finally the toughest
of the "roots" yielded. Too late
the workmen learned It was a
telephone cable.
Eight hours later, telephone
service was restored to 450 sub-crlbcrs.
"It is absolutely un-American
and contrary to law," Taft in
terjected, "for the government
to orgunlze these people to spy
on other people."
"They don't spy," Bowles re
plied. The flareup came as other sen
ators, delving into postwar hous
ing prices, heard an official es
timate that 3.200,000 American
families will be forced to
"double up" In living quarters
by the end of next year..

Twelve Norwegian sailors who
lived three years of "hungry
hell" in a Japanese prisoner
camp sped east toward home to
daysbut they hod their regrets.
In the United States Seaman's
Service club here last night was
a smorgasbord table laden with
ull the delectable assortments of
food native Norwegians here
could prepare for their eating.
The city's prettiest girls of
Norwegian descent garbed In na
tive costume were there to add
atmosphere and serve the 12
guests of honor.'
But the table was untouched.
Late coast trains forced the sail
ors to sprint for the eastbound
train delayed for their arrival
so they could make ship bound
lor home.
Climbing aboard the train,
they admitted they had but one
meal all day. It didn't matter,
they explained, since they hadn't
reaiiy eaien m inrce years
anyway,

- that smorgas-
All during the cigarct short
age it was tne good old well,
smoked pipe that took the cake.
