But what has happened at home while men were killed abroad?’ A worker cannot get a job in a basic industry without first paying labor organiations for his constitutional right to work. A returned veteran of four standing . . . three years and two months overs a frank and_ inter- esting letter. His home is in Detroit. He is anxious to work and jobs could be had by the thousand if strike orders did not pre- vail. At such a time, while politicians wrangle about the passage of fantastic full employment bills, and the nation is beg- ging for men to work, he writes: “Never drew unemployment compen- sation before, but decided to now. I got my union card. Boy, what a racket that’s One guy can’t do a_thing about it-. The other dopes.ius aNpund and iet the) 6ffiterd pass Anyphing/they like. It’s one big mess. To put it in a nut- shell, it’s the union that runs the men . .¢ not the men, the unions.” r And this man fought for freedom for foreigners. Now he draws unemployment compensation in Detroit while he is forced to remain idle regardless of his desire to work. years’ . writes iS. urned into! HANG THIS UP in the magazine Fortune, for Janu- an exhaustive article on DDT, the ide that has worked miracles in controlling or eliminating many pests. In concluding its review, the follow- ing precautions are recommended Fortune: Keep DDT insectieides-where they will not be used as medicine or in foods. Wash thoroughly hands and any parts of the skin that come iy. contact, with oil solutions Avoid inhalation from''sprays’ and aerosol bombs. If large-scale application is made, a mask is advised to avoid irritation from kerosene or inhalation of DDT. Some ventilation is necessary during treatment. Watch out for fire Cover or remove any food when DDT is being applied; cover the gold fish bow]; remove the canary. Keep children and pets away from sprayed areas until sprays have dried. ary. inse by sheave the.,.m POSSIBILITIES OF RADAR Radar, in the long run, may prove to be a far greater discovery than smashing the atom and may even neutralize the use of the atomic bomb in warfare. However sound that thought may prove to be, it was evolved in The Citizen office yesterday by one of the editors when he read about the contact that had been made by radar with the moon by United States signal corspmen. Radar is still in swaddling clothes and to state what its ultimate development may be would sound to us today a lurid dream of a man with the horrors. Direction of bombs or pilotless bomb- carrying planes by radar, is already in the field of certainty, and who knows that the day may come when radar not only is able to “spot” objects in the air and determine the speed and the direction in which they are traveling, but will also be able to con- vey on its beam some entity that will ex- plode an atom bomb while it is still far off from its target? Besides, radar has the possibilities of obtaining for man a far greater knowledge of the planets in our solar system, and may ; even be used in a more intimate study of the stars. Excepting thought, light travels faster than anything else in the universe, and, of course, radar travels with the speed of light, 186,000 miles a second. Go- in#at@that speed, it required two.and dne- half. second for d@iePimpulses to gon- and. return’ fo. ‘Earth, and the mean distance of the moon from us is 238,857 mil wits Light waves make radar possible, as they also make radio possible. Here in Key West we hear a person speaking over a microphone in New York quicker than the audience listening to him, because the audience depends on sound waves, moving as a snail at 1,100 feet a second as com- pared to the 186,000 a second at which light waves carry the voice to your radio. Don’t be surprised at anything you may hear in the next few years about the de- velopment of, radar: ,Contacts probably will be made With, our} planets; including Pluto, far ott neyon ie orbit of Neptune, witch Muntili a sup yt Be he fpythest (planet front slay sian “287917 b0,- ee miles. | .. ; Wh Coos rae iu“ i. ea with | it; you grow Times change and peoplé why wérty if you change a bit’as older? 1 cetaceans The privileged classes include those who think-they are entitled to special fav- ors, as well as those who have spetial favors.

For every two people in the United States, according to Government esti- mates, there are three rats, not including the two-legged kind. “NEVER THE TWAIN SHALL MEET” git eee — ; whether the majoriiy }4f people eOr disapprove of exist- ing proposals for this. country to vadopt state medicine, whereby the ‘Federal gov- ernment Would become the final authority in medical care, one great objection to the proposal cannot be over-looked. State medicine is opposed by the medical pro- fession. If it is pushed down the throats of the doctors against their will, it cannot help But result in lowered medical stand- ards. As one Veterans’ Administration authority has pointed out in urging co- operation between that agency and the medical profession, “You can’t push a good doctor into anything; he must come in because he wants to be of service. And that’s the only, kind of doctor we want.” If this is true of the Veterans’ Ad- ministration, it is most certainly true of a nationwide medical system. Unless the system is swpported in the hearts of the doctors who must work under it, it is doomed. to failure. Medical men have just-one objective ; the ‘highest possible health standatds. They do not feel that the’ goal can be reached by subjecting medicine to the control of government. Government inter- ference has for centuries blocked the scientific and cultural progress of man- kind. There is no reason to believe that such interference would bring any hap- pier results now. For this reason alone, the medical profession can never. be ex- pected to support socialized medicine, and socialized medicine can never succeed, j even in theory, without its support.

She never knew exactly why, but the thought that Barbara was having jroUbIS of some sort motivated her. As she came through the al- cove that led to the back hallway, she saw Barbara, her arms around a swaying, sodden figure, her face flushed and miserable. Outside the doorway stood her brother, Burk Angus, who had evidently just delivered the wreck of Whit Lacey into her hands. A few quick words passed. between them. .. I thought—I left him safely | in his room,” Barbara was saying. j “I found him parked by the roadside near my place,” the man answered calmly. “I _ thought you’d want me to bring him home even—” His eyes lifted. to- ward the drawing room. “I would have taken him to my place un- til later, but I know _how he’d have hated that. I—I don’t think anyone saw us come in, and if “Yos,~oh, yes! Thanks, Burk!” Barbara turned and saw Edith standing ‘losé. beside her. Her eyes widehéd,'‘her-face flushed an even deeper color. “Your: father is ill, Edith,” she-said hastily. ut he'll be ial rightinaw.

Jake, hovering near, came to her assistance and to- + gether they half-carried, half- dragged the nen man to the back stairway. Edith stood rigid after they had passed her, her fingers futilely twisting the soft fabric of her gown. A stirring in the doorway, caused hér to, turn. Burk Angus was moving away. “Wait!” At the sharp command the man turned back to face her. He stood on the second step so that their eyes were almost level. “J—I think somebody—some of the rest of us besides your sister —should thank you for bringing him home,” she said hesitantly. “Will you accept my gratitude?” Burk Angus smiled, briefly and reassuringly, and in that sudden expression she sensed his quiet, undemanding strength. “Thank you—for thinking of it!” he said ey and with a slight bow lisappeared in the darkness. “The Laceys take everything he offers,’ Edith mused, “And give nothing in return—not even thanks, apparently!” Slowly she turned back to the drawing room where the gaiety went on uninterrupted and be- fore long Barbara came back to smile and talk with feverish de- termination: But daughter and wife were each more conscious of the presence of the man upstairs than of the'guest$ who surrounded, them. .Oii¢e the e¥és of the two oes met.and Mes of under- standing passed between them. Rememp ri Edith’s sudden blazing ‘anger, Barbara's lip trem- ble fittle—for always before things dike this had hap- pened, she-had had to face them alone! oo The Jast guest had gone, the last light on the lawn had been extinguished. Old Eugenia, tired but happy over the success of her party, climbed the stairs to her room attended by the faithful Josie. “Now that the young folks have met Edith, she'll be invited everywhere,” Eugenia said com- placently as Josie lifted the black lace gown over her head. “And who knows Josie, she may fall in love with one of those boys that were here tonight—maybe she'll not mother—" “Td like to keep her always,” | Josie answered smiling. “She's | one of the loveliest persons I’ve { ever known.” H “Yes—lovely like her mother— but she’s Whit’s own child, too! j Josie, I intend to speak to Whit } severely tomorrow!” | EEDITH lay. awake for a tong time, disappointed and yn- happy. Finally she rose and walked to the window. The late | moonlight lay like a benediction over the rolling meadows of blue grass. It was“& gentle, gracious coun- try, Edith thought, with its sym- metry of hills and trees, and sparkling streams, It’s black furn- pikes winding through the white fences like lacing ribbons. It was a land that bred graciousness and charm. Perhaps her own mother had absorbed some of her beauty of spirit from it. | But old Eugenia had none of the gentleness of this land—even Josie’s mildness was a timidity born of fear. And as for Whit Lacey, his nature would have | found a more perfect setting in some dark and stormy region. He was certainly not a product of this environment, Edith thought, with the angry intolerance of-the young. | She had been gn the ‘verge of loving her fathev, Edith knew that. His) consideration, his gay, good humor, his evident. ptide, in her, had all done. their, work,, She had begun to understand why this man’s charm was able’ to counter-balance his less favor2 able qualities. And tha: sense of oneness with him had persisted— the shock of seeing him use one of her own gestures, throw back his head in a way peculiarly her own. Surely she had been defi- nitely marked by this man as his own! But only outwardly, Edith in- sisted, in her mind now. And as ,want to go back to her | she crept back into bed she cried |) softly, “Oh, God, make me like my mother—inside!” To be continued Where to Listen Saturday, January 26th , “6 P.M. to Midnight Cleveland Symphony* | Hawaii Calls* .
