Returns Good •For Campaign Against Cancer William Ahem, chairman of the

Cancer Drive reports that results have been very favorable, especially among industries and business.

Due to ' the tact that the .set-up hero was late In getting organized and arrival of .supplies was delayed, Mrs. Alice T. Peterson, chairman of clubs and organizations asks that societies make . donations direct to Treasurer Harrison M. Lang and not wait for the arrival of a letter of appeal.

Tlio unfortunate toll that this dreaded malady Inflicts Is one of the saddest things of life, and any one ^who has lost a member of his family because of cancer can ap­preciate the work accomplished by the Connecticut Cancer ' Society and the American Cancer Society.

Education of the public is one of the best available methods of em­phasizing tho cancer problem. Bcr cause, science has not yet found any one speciflo cure for cancer, It Is especially Important to recog­nize special signs that may point to this disease. Money for sucii ed­ucation Is being raised In the American Cancer Society Cam­paign for $5,000,000. Research, edu­cation and treatment will all bene­fit from the present campaign.

DEALING WITH THE DOG PROBLEM

Whcii' three eliiklreu nro attacked and liiltpn hy dogs ovpv IUP brief period of a sinjfle Saturday and Sunday it would seem liuit l.lie time has come for aggressive action in dealing with Ihc dog p'robleui locally. And, so we are informed, that is exactly wluit the town oi'-fieials propose to do. The two dofrs wliieli attaclted u 1'2 year old boy on Mani street Saturday have been taken into custody hy IJog Ward­en Anthony I'orpora and will he hold in ([iMirantino I'or tlie prescvih-ed period so tluit developnieuts may be watched, Tlie rolioc and tlie Dog Warden have begun an investigation to .see that such trouble docs not occur again, and warning ,)ias gone forth ,1hat unliceu.scd dogs found at large will ho taken into custody.

There has been altogether too inueli Innihlo in Eiisl Haveii tliis year from-roaming dogs and ' the tlireal of striiigoiit action, if fol­lowed up by actual arrests such as have occurred in our noigliboring town oi! Hamden where the Town Court has imposed fines in a iiuni-ber of eases of deiiiuinent dog owner.s, will undoubtedly bring gen­eral satisfaction liere. Dog Warden Poriiora p^'csented liis resigna­tion some time ago but consented to carry on for the time-lieing, and with the support of the townspeople he should he able, wp iire sure, to kenp the situation well in hand.

''" RAY STANNARD BAKER'S'LATEST BOOK

Wc rooomtnciid foi' careful reading by those who desire to see a world at peace oiico more, the latest book "American Chronicle" by Kay Staniuird Baker, which we have just returned to the-Iluga-man Memorial ijibrury after several evenings of proHtahle, informa­tive and entertaining reading. Mr, Baker,'be it remembered, is the writer and publiei.sf who was one of President Wilson's chief advis­ers when the Treaty of Versailles -was being wrestled witli by the great brains of the World back in lilli). The problems that Wilson, Clemeneeau, Lloyd George, and Orlando attemptedtn solve back in those days a generation ago are very much the .saiiie- ]«'olilenis con­fronting" Truman, Churchill and Stalin today, and the bickerings, petty gritbbings and narrowness in high places which attended the efforts to form a League of Nations twenty-one years ago should profit those who can learn lessons from the past,

Ray Stannard Baker was one of the earliest of the writers wlioiii President "Teddy" Boo.sevelt once called "muckrakers", but it was their work which was largely responsible for the wholesale cleaning up of corruption in polities, business and labor, wliieli marked the early- decades of this cenlnry in America. Under tlie name of David Grayson, Mr. Baker also wrote deliglittul essays on the peaceful, coninionplaee things of life, and sucli of liLs, books as "Adventures in Contentment", "The Friendly Road", and "Under My Elm" won for him millions of renders not only in this country but throughout the world.

tor more volunteers to assist In making the weekly quota of three thousand surgical dressings In the Red Cross rooms In the Town Hall. The women who ore giving live, ten and twelye', hours of their time weekly are wondering why more women hi tho Town are not willing to give at least two hours.

These dressings are now being sent to tlie Padiflo area and to tlie Hospitals in this country for the returning wounded men. If. these dressings, wei;e not really needed, tile Army would not ask for them. , The making iot tho dressings ' Is very simple, the gauze being.folded oh charts-rnarl^ed-Oft Inblack lines

The sessions''in, the Town Hall are Mondays, froiii 1:30 to 4 and 7:30 to 0, Wednesdays from 10 to and Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 10.

The only requirements are a wash dross and head covering.

Can't the women of the town in making up their schedule for the week find at least two. hours of that tlnie to glvo:fop1the comfort of the men who have given and are giv .ing so much for us.

Three Children Are Injured In Canine Attacks Three boys, all of tender age

were Injured painfully and received medical attention following separ­ated attacks by unleashed dog.s here the past week ond. The cases brought speedy action on the part of the police and dog warden look­ing toward the curbing of the dog nuisance which had brought num­erous complaints this spring,

Bradley Smith, 12. of 32 Edward street, was attacked, according to the police, by two dogs allegedly owned by Joseph Barnes of 110 Main street, as he was riding on Ills bicycle. Ho was treated; for 10 wounds on his legs by Dr. Robert M. Taylor. Eugene Onofrlo, B, of 140 Main street was allegedly at­tacked by a dog In Joyce Road. The third mishap befell Edmund Henry of 02 Hughes street.

All cases are under Investigation and the dogs, have been rounded up by Dog Warden Porpora and will be kept In quarantine for the proscribed period to watch devel­opments. In the meantime a) cam­paign against unlicensed canines Is underway Wltti stringent action promised. Complaints have also boon made of dogs running after automobiles and causing near ac­cident^. It Is also complained that many New Haveners have brought unwanted dogs Into Eost Haven and released them from automo­biles to get rid of them and these have contributed to the reports of damage around town.

By Will. E. Fagcrstrom We have just received a round-

robin letter from five" of our lads who happened to meet at Callcoon, Samar. Bob Sheiffele starts the letter by .saying: "How's the Bull of the Woods? We're having a little reunion here at Callcoon, Samar. There .is only Dick Brachc, Jack Mills, Jay Fiondulla, Bob Quinn, Ray Corbett, Bill Clancy and myself Bill flew up from Mlndaneo. We're really talking over all the good times we had back at the good old high school. Maybe we'll all be back around the town pretty soon Ray Corbett continues: "Well this reunion down here is really one for the books having seven fellows from East Haven together so far away. We're really having one good bull session tonight mapping out East Haven's future. We're sure able to realize now that those school days that we hated so miich were really the best days after all. I don't know when we'll be home as we're all in different outflts but here's hoping it will be soon. Well I'll give the other fellows a chance now." Next we hear from Jay Fiondella: "Well here's your problem child writing you a little note. No kidding, you realize how much you miss a place when you are away from it for awhile.

except I'm the happiest tonight I have ever been for a long time. Your problem boys all look and act the same and In my travels I have never met any to equal them. Take care now." The last note comes from Blir Clancy: "As you already know by now we are really having a fine time tonight. It's really great and it makes me real happy. We're all talking over the future for sports In East Haven. It's real fun planning the future—hope ,lt all comes true. Take care—regards to all."

Frank Barker who Is now home on furlough took his boot training at Sheepshead Bay, N.Y, His next assignment was on a Liberty Ship and he left New 'York, sailed through the Panama Canal and landed at points on New Guinea and in Australia. His itinerary also took him to 'Blac, Dutch East In­dies, Leyte, and Llngayen Gulf.

French Celebrations Al Scdon writes from France:

"This Is a little late I guess but they say that war is over. I have seen more celebrations here In France, than you could count. The French people really wenf crazy. They had firecracker* and every­one was dancing in the streets. However, the American.s, for the most part, simply were onlookers.; Every man seemed to feel that war was only half over and was looking ahead to the C.B.I. or a long stay

ijin the Army !0f Occupation. The it jPrench would shout to us that wa'r

but America still had a long fight. This seemed to be a fruitless task, however. We had ' been expecting the surrender and had had so many false alarms It didn't come as much of a surprise to us. In all it was a great event but it only marked a point, In our march toward victory. I'll write again."

Keeps Up With Town Dave Miller writes from Ger­

many to say: "For some time now, I have been receiving your letters and I must say I enjoy them. Your letter is one of many of this kind that I receive. Others are from tht* Old Stone Church and the Boy Scouts of America, Between the three I keep pretty well Informed as to where my friends are and what they_ are doing, Tfou have mentioned the G.I, Bill and i was wondering If you could possibly supply me with Information about Wentworth Institute In Boston. At present i am like many of the oth­ers over here. Kjust don't know for sure what I want to do when I am discharged but I am trying hard to decide and prepare for that day. It seems that there will be so much to do that one won't know where to start. I wish I could tell you something of our activities here but as you know we have censors. I do feel ,however, that I am in the best armored division over here. I'm really proud of my out­fit and It's past record and I feel sure that record will never be spoiled.

Well folks it begins to look,as If that new fence around Green Lawn cemetery over on Tyler street that I harped abcut several months ago is not so far oft as I thought it was._ After a few gifts had come in toward the fence fund last fall nothing more seemed to be !n .sight and all winter long and right now the dlllapitated old picket fence continued In Its distressful state becoming even more descrcpit as the months Went on, Then I read a brief letter in this paper last week that some kindly person had sent a check for twenty-five dollars to Mr. Stevens with the request that It be turned over to the Green Lawn Cemetery Association toward the fund for a new fence. Reading that little letter made me real glad because It shows that far from dy­ing out sentiment for improve­ments at Green Lawn Cemetery has really grown and now I feel that tliere are many others who will be gad to step forward with their of­ferings and these will certainly be welcome I am sure whether they are large or small, Mr. G. Archer Quick, the president of the Green Lawn association and Mrs. Beach Its secretary-treasurer will wel­come such contributions and I am quite sure that Mr. Stevens won't stliit on the matter of publicity tor this very e.xcellent cause. Memor­ial Day seems an 'especially good time of year to think about ceme­tery Improvements and to have this gift come Just before Memor-| ial Day Is very nice. Even those who haven't any relatives or friends resting in Green Lawn ought to get behind this fund be-

jcause Improvement of the ceme-:te!-y and particularly the replacing (of that awful fence Is of real com­munity importanfce. I'm glad that in my small way I have had a part in starting you people thinking about it. Keep up tfie good work I say.

Among other things a large cistern system has been in­stalled wliich Mr. Black believes

j win go a long way toward abating the offensive odors wliich have been, the source of seme complaints In the past in that neighborhood. The plant itself is also being Improved to take care"for the developing bus­iness carried on at this slaughter

house which is one of the few es­tablishments of the kind in this section.

Business has been at a stand­still at-the plant recently because of quota requirements despite the fact that the New Haven market has for some time been suffering a critical shortage ot meat. It is believed however that .slaughtering will soon be resumed with many steers being shipped in by rail-

[boots they looked mighty line. Al! in ail everybody is pretty liappy. As I think I told you I have been .playing ball and trying to build I myself up after my episode in the hospital. We played last* Sunday .and Sam Nahem, former St. Louis Icardinal twlrler, pitched tor us and set down our opposition with just one hit. They got that in the last ot the ninth inning. Incidentally the fellow that hit the ball was the only one to reach first base In the whole game. It was the closest to I a perfect game that. I have ever seen. We only got tour hits our­selves but we bunched two hit5 and a wall? In the first ot the tenth inning to score the only two runs of the ball game. It was a tightly played ball game with no errors by either team. I got one lilt and a walk out of three ofhcial times at baY. We have about tour or five [more good pitchers besides Nahem so we shouldn't have much trouble with tlie opposition. Hope to see jyoii soon, maybe."

Little Episodes From Old

East Haven By The Olil-Timcr

MR. BRJNLEY'S COLUMN "We comb the world for gieat-

ncss, somO tlines it dwells next door."

The rciults of training in Public Speaking, made Itself apparent at the opening exercises ot the Sun-1 day school ot the Old Stone Ciiurch. Sunday morning. Clifton Weed Jr. did a fine job with the worship period, and a second hit was made, when Jerry Stecge wlio recently won a Sllvei- Medal In Oratoi'y, de­livered his prize oration, "Peter I Walking ori thb wiitftr." The' tonal quality of Jerry's spealting voice, is somethliig ihat maiiy public speak­ers .woiild give much to possess. Every time our late President ad­dressed the Nation, it was this qual-lty_ of tone that pursuaded millions

lot listeners.

The Nash class and the Brinley-Burgess classes combined forces [Sunday, and the great dramatic Feast of King Belshazzah, was the thenie. It some of these, Nlajcstlc dramatic scenes could only be dra­matized for Church Schools, the Influence of the movie, would bo secondary In interest.

Letters from Raymond Berlepsch and from Harry Bell were a fea­ture part of the Bible Class pro-Igram Sunday, they were filled with news and interesting items, the boys ate 'em up., William Binder, who is an excellent reader, served in that capacity.

The lesson for next Sunday at the Young Men's Bible Class will I be "How a Minister, suspended the Authority of a Nations' Ration Board, and supplied, food for a family for six years." - No cuestlon is ever settled,^ unless it is settled right. And peace, is only fleetinB, it but secured, by might. H.W.B.

One of the truest signs of the coming ot spring in East Haven thirty years ago was the noisy sounds which bogaii, to emferKC ,ln the evening hours after the supper [hour from the' big, old barn that stood in the rear of Charlie Oer-rlsh's dwelling out on 'West Main street. Hero youthful mijmbers ot the Light Infantry Fife and Drum Corps beat forcetuliy upon their drums and blew liisttlly at their flffts lintil the rattfcrs shbok under thb skllyiil tutoring ot Charlie who, as I recall it, was one ot the best drummers and titers in our town. Charlie had wfen nicdals in many drum corps competitions and delighted in imparting the know­ledge he had gained to the young sprouts then growing up.

The reason for all this noisy going ohs cut in the Gerrish barn was the approach ot Meiiiorihl Day. The Fife and Drum Corps was al­ways a colorful.contribution tb thO I Memorial Day parade. A,"! I re'mein-ber It we used to have our cele­bration on the Sunday nearest Memorial Day in ordej- that our folks could take part in the big parade over in New Haven and the

title ot a new boolt tor the prospec­tive liome owner. For those who like to "build" In the workshop we

[suggest ".It's tun to malce It your­self". The amateur cook whose worltshop is the kltchel will find "How to cook' full ot practical and useful hints.

Those who just want a good book should find something In this list ot best-sellers as given in Sunday's New York Times Book Review.Tlio library has the following: Fiction: Captain from Castile, Green Years, Earth and High Heaven, Forever lAmber, Immortal Wife, Great Son, Leave Her to Heaven, The Robe, Young Bess.; Non-Flotlon: Bravo Men, Black Boy, Anything Can Happen, Try and Stop Mo. Here Is .Your War, American Guerilla in the Philippines., '

plan seemed to work out pretty well. The day wo celebrated was one ot niarlial .splendw and solemn |tliought,s, Charlie Qrannls, Mr. Beach and two or three other gray-tialrcd veterans ot the War ot the Rebellion were then honored by their fellow townspeople, old and young, I remember how smartly the Light Intai\try boys led by "Cap". Frank J, Revelcy used to step along Main street to the thrilling tunes ot Charllfc aerrlsh's drummers and titers. It was a great, grand day, and usually the weather was clear and warm. *

The Old Cetrtetcry across from the Green where our early settlers and their dtscendcnts lay row no row aiilid thfe gravestones, and |orcen Lawn Cemetery some dis­tance away on Tyler street, were always places ot beauty on Me­morial Day, The people ot the town had seen to that and tljc grass had been newly mowed and the Civil War graves had been supplied with their O.A.R. markers and small flags. Children from the school had brought spring flowers, gay, color­ful and fragrant, to place upon the graves. Prayers were said In the burying grounds and then later the townspeople assembled on the Green to listen to. a ringing patri­otic speech from some visiting cele­brity, 'rherc the big black Civil War Cannon shared a place of honor beside the flag-topped LIbor ty Pole. Hero the town talliors dressed ,lh their SUndtiS* best ap­plauded with' the othei's who had gathered for the annual celebra­tion.

Atl^orward the Civil War (sray-he'ads,'the Spanish Wdr Veterans .and the Light,Infantry boys;; os-jcdrted by noisy, flag wuvlns school children, repaired to the old town hall whore the ladles ot the town had prepared for them satisfying refreshments, hot coilee, salads, sandwiches and toothsome, delic­ious pies.

Yes, Memorial Day was a day to bo remembered in those days. And i we' Old Timers like to close our eyes [now and then, and remember, ]

One of those Light Infantry boys, the best drummer in the \tthole out-. lit, if my recollections are correct, went,Into the World War a Ibw years later and gave his llto! 'in France. He was Harry Barllbu, and [oiir American Legion poit, which Is named in his honor, has loijig since taken over the respohslbillty for our Memorial Day program and win .again be in charge this year.

Modern art education has as its ^ften unique or enter ta ining and objective the enr ichment of the lives of all whom it reaches. This Is done by providing the oppor­tunity to register ones' reactions to any life experience.

In East Haven's schools, boys and girls are encouraged to ex­press by means of drawing, pa in t ­ing, modeling, cut t ing w,llh scissors, pasting, and when possible, weav­ing, carving, and constructing their thoughts and feelings about what they have experienced and ob­served. Exciting materials such as bright crayons, pa in t s and papers, pen and ink for sketching and let­tering, nnger paint , spat ter Ink, charcoal, chalks, modeling, clay are offered tiy tbe Ar t -Depar tment to stimulate keen imaginations and coordinate, hand and mind.

one can enjoy a half hour or so looking a t pictures and craft work he has made and brought home to display. Explorations in a greater variety of materials s t imulate his imagination and add to his enjoy­ment of the a r t period.

Board Publishes Poul t ry Prices

Underlining the continuing shor­tage of chickens the Chairman of the Branford AVar Price Si Ration­ing Board, stre&ed the importance to consumers of •acquainting them­selves with the latest cents per pound prices on poultry that go in­to effect immediately.

These prices for dressed weight in retail outlets, he said, are as follows:

Broilers, fryers and roasters, 50c; light capons, 50c; heavy capons, 53c; fowl, 45c; stags, 30c. The chairman suggested that, "In the interests of protecting'• herself against .overcharges, the housewife should clip these prices and carry them with her when phe gpes shop­ping for poultry."

These up-to-the-minute ceilings will remain in elfect, he said, until June 1, when a new list.w.lll come out.

More Battery Boys Arrive

Branford Battery returns. Those are three words the town has hoped to say for over three years. They went oil some 80 strong and have been separated from the unit or returned In groups of twos and three'.s until now there remains about a bakers dozen to welcome on rotation furloughs.

It will not bo known until the boys arrival, probably today or' tomorrow Just who can be expected but It Is presumed that all Bran­ford men serving with Battery D, 211th AAA Bn., will, be home.

Those remaining In the war area will be some half-dozen who previ­ously came on 30-day furloughs.

There, Is reason to believe that the men were granted rotation fur­loughs before the point .system be­came elTectlve.

Among those known definitely to have landed In the states are:

T-5 Joseph J. Donadio was among those to ^each CaUfornla and his family are eagerly awaiting his ar­rival.

Cph George D. Blrbarle of Hill­side Avenue Is with tho boys.

At the Ralola home, Hopson Ave­nue, 'they expect Cpl. Dominic J. Ralola today or tomorrow.

Republicans Told Of Tough Going Through Pacific

n i c Jap Is a tough customer. Rep John E. Russ^ell of Hadlyme In speaking on "Problems of the Paci­fic War" at a meeting of the Wo­men's Republican Club Monday night said that the natural re­sources and geography of Japan\ coupled with his religion makes lilm a tough customer to conquer.

The road to his hofne Island Is a treacherous path ot shallow chan nels, mountainous barren Islands, coral reefs and volcanic, lands via the Pacific. Overland by,the Alas­ka route Ice makes progress im­possible and from India there are no railroads or even decent roads toward China. If reaching China seemed advantageous there still remains, the fact that harbors are poor, her people needy and her soldiers lU trained.

So, said IVIr. Russell, victory over the land of the rising sun must be done tho long hard way and. we who think the peace is half won must remember that the enemy has excellent war materials, its re­sources are plentiful and it lias 4 million soldiers as yet untouched by war. The road to Japan Is tough.

Lt. Col. Russell ,1s currently on Inactive duty after more than two years in China, Burma, India, Egypt and Lybya.

With the sounds, sights and pro­blems of the war, area fresh "in his mind he proved himself an intelli­gent, Intense and Informed speak­er on Pacillc problems.

Scout Camporee A t Cannp Morton

The annual Branford District Boy Scout Camporee will be held Saturday and Sunday at Camp Morton. Scouts from Branford, North Branford, Guilford and Mad­ison will pitch tent and make camp for two days.

The public is Invited to visit and learn about this years activities. There will be contests and a Court of Honor. Parents are especially urged to be present at a program at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon.

Branford was visited Wednes­day and today by the Mobile Field Unit of the Bureau of Laboratories of tho Connecticut State Depart­ment of Health. During its stay here the unit was situated at the rear of the Water Company. Tho services of the unit were obtained by Health Ofllcer Arthur S. Mc­Queen, for the purpose of making a survey of the dishwashing effl-ciency of the public eating estab­lishments.

Edward B. Noonan, senior sani­tary inspector and XavJer Morkus, bacteriologist were directing the survey here.

Mr. Noonan said at noon today as the unit left for Guilford that 14 eating places were visited with tlie health officer and conditions were found "good". Reports of in­spections and bacteria counts of the swabs will be sent to Dr. Mc­Queen who will furnish each res­taurant owner with his count.

Dr. McQueen points out that the survey is entirely educational in character and Intended to aid res­taurant proprietors in the problem of securing not only clean but also bacteria free" eating utensils. A sanitary survey of the physi­

cal condition' ot the restaurants was made to show conformance to the State Sanitary Code, by an in­spector from the Bureau ot Sani­tary Engineering of the State De­partment of Health.

Cultures were secured from the surfaces of eating and drinking utensils by swabbing selected glasses, cups and spoons with ster­ile cotton swabs wiiich are then' shaken in sterile sal solution. Total bacterial counts are made In the field laboratory on this solution. Those cultures developing less than 100 bacterial colonies per utensil are considered excellent, while a total of no more tlian 500 colonies is said to be only fairly satisfac­tory, with counts over 500 indicat­ing some fault either in washing, sterilizing or the subsequent stor-, age of the cleaned utensils. Tests made ' by the state department have shown that satisfactory counts can be secured by careful consci­entious attention to the essentials of dish washing, and to steriliza­tion and proper storage ot the utensils.

Most ot the restaurant proprie­tors visited the mobile laboratory when tests were being made and the public as well inspected the well equipped laboratory-on-wheels

WORKING TOWARD UNITY

AVe attended an unusual service Inst Thursduy night in liistorie Center Church on the Oreen in New Haven which hud been arranged under the auspices ot the Greater Now Haven Council of Churches. It was an Ecumenical Service of Worsliip uiid brought together more than a thousand representatives of the 80 or more Protestant cliurches ot the area. Also reprcseiilod was the Greek Orthodox par­ish. The ma.ssod choirs filled the galleries und prior to the service marched across tho Green from Batell Chapel with the National, Slate and Christian Flug.s and the CVoss going on before. When the Lord's Prayer was repeated as a part ot the service it was .said in a variety of different languages. • '

^ The .speaker, tho lit. Rev. G. Ashton Oldham, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Albany pleaded for a unified progrum of action on the gart ot ail churches which he said today face their golden op­portunity to lead the world out of its present plight. He told of the great unified work which the clergy ot all great religious faitlis have been carrying on in Europe where problems are so great they cannot be met with by a church divided.

Such movements Inward unified action on the part of all men of good will are enpouruging in times of stress und strain which seem

.to rack the very foundations of Civilization. On the .same evening the Jlost Rev. Richard J. Gushing, Catholic archbishop of Boston, speak­ing at a great (meeting for unity sponsored by the Massachusetts Committee of Catholics, Protestants and Jews, declared that "when representatives of the three large groups in the United States father the work for social .iustiee there is hope of internutionul peace ahead."

eighteen Gold Star men of East Haven who have died In this con­flict. Music was provided by the combined choirs of the church.

Tho topic of the Rev, William G. West was "Did They Profit Most?" In part he said, "Memorial Day In 1945 win be vastly different from Memorial Day In 1943. Some of you will remember that we had no time for a big parade, but a group of us gathered in front of the Legion House on Thompson Avenue and marched to tho cemeteries and to the Green where we paid our tri­bute of remembrance and respect to East Haven's honored dead, and now we shall have another day of remembrance with the first flush of a groat victory still on our faces and in our hearts. Yet, wo cannot but be sober when wo think Of the terrible price war has wrung from us.

"This morning let me take you to the head of a shallow grave on Pelelu Island wheie stands a little white 01 OSS, marking the last rest­ing place of an American marine whose body had been mutlUtatEd beyond recognition. When time came in' tho burial service lo In'-' scribe something on tho cross, a man who was obviously a Rotarlan carved witli his bayonet this ques­tion, "He served best, did he profit most?" , • "

Ernie I'ylc's Answer "Tho late lamented Ernie Pyle

gave us an answer when.he said, 'Thijy died and thereby the rest of us can go on and on. When we leave here for tho next shore, there Is nothing we can do for the ones' beneath the wooden crosses,'except perhaps 'to pause and murmur. Thanks pal.' Jesus once explained It, 'Greater love hath no man than this that he lay down his life for his friends.' But tho answer to the question, 'He served best, did he profit most?' after all Is one each of us has to give for himself.

"The second part of tho answer to the question; 'He served best, did he profit most?' depends upon how well we loam the terrible lessons Hitler taught us. 1—Hitler taught us that selflslr'natlonallsm is not enough. 2—Hitler taught us that young people can be taught any­thing at all, if you begin early enough. 3—Hitler taught us tliat force and preparedness alone do not make peace or prevent wars.

Harry Boll 'Writes From Guate­mala—Other News Of Interest About Our Folk In The Armed Forces.

By William E. Fagerslrom

We hadn't been espeeially interested in tlie i3i!l before the jires-ent General Assembly asking tiiat ii'ishers island he brought back under tho jurisdiction ot Conneeticut, but recently the Legislature's Public Kelatioiis Bureau sent us u copy of the measure for our perusal and we report now that we are converted to tho idea. If Fishers Is­land with its 572 year-round residents was situated only two miles olf East Haven we'd say gladly let's take those folks and tlieir 4,000 acres of property onto our town ta.v list. Fishers Island lies loss than lAVo miles off the southeast coast of Coiiiieetieut. "Wc liiive seen its low-lying shores many times on motor trips down east. I t ' is only eiglit miles by steamer from the New Haven Kailroad station at New London. But AVhen Fishers Island folks want to go to their town hall which is at Southold on'Loiig Island they have to make a trip of 200 miles liy rail, wuter and roud. Settled under Xlie jurisdiction of tlie New Haven Colony, April !), 1041, it remained under New Haven and later Connecticut jurisdiction until March 12 1880, when a new boundary line between the states pf New York and Connecticut was negotiated, leaving Fishers Island'to New York. Final aotipn oh this line was ratiiied June 6, 1913. We hope that the legislatiires of ourlworklng.

Chaplain Darrell K. Wolte for­merly minister of the Foxon Con­gregational Church writes most in­terestingly of his experiences. The day before he wrote he had wit­nessed the taking over of a Con­centration Camp in Germany. Ap­parently Chaplain Wolfe saw at first hand what we read about in the papers. The crowning touch to the whole scone must have been given when the Nazis were forced to stand at attention while our National Anthem was played. I look forward to seeing many .sou-venlors Chaplain Wolfe has collect-ted and to hearing more of his ex­periences when he returns to this country. He speaks very definitely of the necessity of a different kind' of education for German youth and we all know this must come about before peace can be assured In that country or any other.

Harry Bell '43 writes from Gua­temala: "I'm now in Guatemala and like it a lot although It gets as hot as a stove where this camp Is. It Is 2:00 P.M. now and the tempera­ture Is already above 84 and this goes on almost every day. Four times a week a truck takes us to San Jose to go swimming but I missed the .sun today because I'm

lot like I was at

the

Island Sound to its mother state. same apd the food is good. Also

we have free movies every evening. Last night I saw 'Between Two Wo­men' and the night before 'Objec-llve Burma' was shown. Last week I had a three day pass which I spent In Guatemala City. We wea­ther-men rent a room with two beds and private bath for only $35 a month which only costs us four dollars each which isn't bad. The room is near the center of town. While In there I did a lot of sight­seeing and wont through the Pal­ace. This is a very beautiful build­ing. I also, went swimming but didn't enjoy I t because the water was too cold. The days are warm but gosh the evenings are cold. 'iTou see the city Is five thousand feet above sea level, fit Is a very pretty city and the streets arc v6ry wide and clean. There are al.so a lot*of beautiful parks scattered through­out the city. I really enjoyed my­self while up there. It Is almost tlnie for me to take another obser­vation 60 I guess I'd better sign off for this time."

I was real­ly glad to see hhn and I think he has grown a little taller since he has boon in the Navy; I wish I could"tell you where I am but the censor won't allow It.
