W ol der what won't? if ft', were in Na/.i G"' many and FAII.FD :o beck up Herr Hitler? The Senators not only refuse to give any details about the real source of their probe, but they refuse to al low any cross examination of their witnesses. Nevertheless, some striking facts have been brought to light. One is that the Senators admit never having seen many of the films they are attacking. Another is that Senator Nye, at tacking Charlie Chaplin's film, "The Great Dictator." said he was opposed to it because it ridiculed "a foreign power and a foreign ruler." Well, the picture does just that: ? the "foreign power" being Nazi Ger many and the "foreign ruler" being Hitler. It must make Herr Adolf very hap py to know that he has a champion in the United States Senate. Come to think of it. maybe a Sen ate investigation of these gentlemen would be Inadequate. Maybe it is a job for the F. B. I. A humorous touch was given the situation the other d.iy by a sarcastic resident of Yankee Connecticut, who sent the probers the following tele gram : "Have just been reading book call ed Holy Bible. Has large circulation in this country. Was written entirely by foreign born, mostly Jews. First part full of dangerous war monger ing propaganda. Second condemns isolationists with fake story about Samaritan. Dangerous. Should be added to your list and suppressed." ? ? ? o ? ? Here is a typical day's menu in the U. S. Navy: Breakfast: Fresh fruit. Vienna Sau sage with Tomato Sauce. Assorted Cereals. Orlddle Cakes with Syrup. Bread. Butter and Coffee. Dinner: Vegetable Soup, Pot Roast of Beef. Succotash. Mashed Potatoes. Salad. Bread. Butter. Coffee. Choco late Cake, and Ice Cream. Supper: Liver and Bacon. String Bean ;, steamed Rice, Salad. Stewed Prunes, Bread. Jam and Tea. o During the training period U. S. Navy recruits gain an average of fif teen pounds each.

So far as automobiles arc concern ed. the only difference is that the time limit lias been cut from two years to 18 months. The days of S5 down payments for electric refrigerators, ironers. stoves, wishing machines, radios, etc.. have l ine. Now you must pay at least one fifth down and the balance in 18 months. For furnaces, furniture, water lieat ei~>, puiiip.1. ni'iu outer home items. ..illy 13 }>e rcent less than one sixth nwd be paid down: but. again only 18 months credit is allowed. On materials for house improve ment or alte ation. there is 110 limita tion on tile credit that may be issued, i i> to SI. 000; and there need be no down payment at all. However, the 18 months limit ts also enforced here. Some think the rules are still too lax. and will lie made more strict as the war uoes on. for the joint purpose j of conserving essential materials by . decreasing sales, and of combatting price inflation.
