FIRES CAUSE BIG LOSSES ON FARMS “Farm fires cost the nation $200,000,000 annually and destroy enough lumber to build some 25,- 000 homes.” And—even more im portant—3,soo persons are burned to death on the farms of the na tion every year. To reduce loss from fire the first step is to remove all pos sible fire hazards by repairing faulty flues, cleaning up trash around buildings and taking care in using matches, inflammable oils and materials and in handling such crops as green hay. Even with the best housekeep ing and safety precautions, there may still be a few fires. There fore, farm leaders advocate or ganizing fire protection groups for fighting fires in farm com munities. Many farmers are enlarging their farm water pumping facili ties or arranging with some mo bile pumping unit in the neigh borhood to provide a water supply adequate for fighting fires. If a farm pond is not accessible to the house and other buildings, 3,000- gallon fire cisterns can be built at reasonable cost. LARGER PROFIT A 20th Century fund survey says that retail stores in small cities tend to have a higher ratio of profit to sales than those in big cities. Ij/Mferr JU/ifpeJ Notes of a Newspaper Man: Churchill and Ass’t Sec’y of State Berle thrashed out a lot of prob lems at 10 Downing street during the war. Berle protested Churchill • support of only one Yugoslav party (Tito’s). . ~. Finally Churchill said: “Cahn’t you permit an old man one romahnce?” “Sure,” said the American, “but, as in all these cases, I can only hope the affection is returned!” The Democrats were going to use ‘‘You Need Mead!” for the N. Y. gubernatorial cam paign slogan. . . . Until they heard that those mean, old Re publicans were going to coun ter-attack with just one word right under theirs: "Dewey?” Quotation Marksmanship: Goethe: There is no more terrible sight than Ignorance in action. . . . Anon: Always listen to the opinions of oth ers; it probably won’t do you any good, but it will them. . . . B. Pen rose: Public office— the last refuge of the incompetent. ... A. Head: Some women carry their secrets about them like an alluring per fume; others wear their secrets in their eyes. . . . J. Csida: The glazed pain in her eyes—like frozen tears. . . . P. Baker: News is anything that makes a woman say: “For Heaven's sakes!” ... A. Franklin: Truman the Chief Axecutive. . . . Ike Eisenhower: To win the peace you have to fight like hell. . . . R. McDowell: The trouble with money is that so few people can afford it. Billingsley: Love conquers all—ex cept poverty and a toothache. “How are the Dodgers do ing?” “Which do you mean the ones in Brooklyn or the ones in the State Dep’t?” Sounds in the Night: In the Stork: “They seem to be treating Henry Wallace like he was Henry Aid rich!” ... At the B’way Hofbrau: "He’ll make a fortune with his new invention for columnists. A foun tain pen that writes under pres sure!” ... At Lindy’s: “What’s the S in H. S. Truman stand for?” . . . "I dunno. What’s Harry Tru man stand for?” ... At the Riv iera: "Wallace went down for the count of 10—Downing street” . . . At Hanson’s: “Look. I want to be your Now Or Never —not your Now and Then!” ... At the Colony: “Wish he’d stick to the Stork mar ket and leave the Stock market alone.” ... At the Blue Angel: “A Broadwayite is a Jerque who knows the inside of everything—ex cept his own home.” Whatever became of that old gag about the restaurant pa tron who asked the time of a passing waitress, who kept on going as she said, “Sorry, but that’s not my tabic.” It’s on page 23 of the current Old Yorker. Sallies in Our Alley: They were discussing a Broadway actor on the skids. “I hear,” said a Lindyite, “That he and his wife may go on the early morning radio with one of those breakfast routines.’’ . “I geddit,’’ summed up Hal Mcln tyre, “one of those has-been and wife teams!” . . . It’s been an nounced that divorces in the U. S. have gone up 25 per cent, and J. Elinson thinks he knows the chorus girl responsible for half of ’em. International Weather Report: Dark war clouds over Europe; continued fog over Washington. A foreign correspondent tells about his conversation with a Rus sian scientist who deplored those who discuss atomic energy only in terms of war—when that energy could accomplish miracles in peace. He summed up with this canny analogy: “To talk of atomic energy in terms of atomic bombs is like talking of electricity in terms of the electric chair.” Manhattan Murals: The Ham burger Heaven opposite St. Pat rick’s cathedral on 51st, which serves little paper envelopes (of sugar) on which is printed: “And stir like H—!” . . . The pathetic sight of a little blind boy "looking” into a 3rd avenue toy shop while his mother shopped at a nearby butcher’s. . . . The panhandler with the H’oxford accent. His requests for handouts are masterpieces of eloquence. ... The chalk sign on a construction fence: “Annie Get Your Goon.” . . . The 42nd street and 6th avenue bootblack whose parrot (on his shoulder) calls out: “Shine, buddy?” Bigtown Smalltalk: The Army- Notre Dame game will make the local hotel sitcheeayshun tougher on November 8-9. Every hotel (includ ing the side-street joints) is booked to capacity. Not one has any room for former Stars & Stripes staffers who hold their reunion event in N. Y. on November 8. . . . There is no 30th (or 60th) floor in the Chrys ler building. But, unlike many oth er buildings, it has a 13th. . . Zil lionaire J. P. Kennedy pocketing toothpicks as he left the Hotel St. Regis after a dinner.
