Says Senate Would Argue Over Words In Lord’s Prayer We Now Have the Agency For CHEN-YU Nail Polish and Lipstick Brame Drug Co. Telephone 10 North Wilkesboro, N. C. Washington.—You could get a good argument in the United States Senate over the meaning of the Lord’s Pfayer, Senator Gil lette, Democrat of Iowa, said. Gillette, in a humorous vein during debate on the Connally postwar declaration, proceeded to demonstrate how “qulbblers over words” might wrangle about the meaning of tho prayer’s first line. Word by word he gave this de scription of bow the senate might debate over it: Giv^— “Some might say that first word Implied a bounty, with the receiver returning nothing, they would say let’s change tnat to reoc' “oh. Lord, make it possi ble for -IS to receive—’’ Us—“some might ask, what Is meant by us We ought to change that to read; ‘The United Nations, or peoples of free and sovereign nations’.” This Bay—“That would be much too restrictive; they would say. They would contend It should read: ‘Give us this day, end each day hereafter . . . ’ Our Daily Bread—“They would argue that dally bread was not definite enough. They would say It doesn’t include cake or ii doesn’t include meat. Someone would se.y. ‘I move to strike out the words daily bread and insert in lieu thereof the words "every thing we need for our spiritual and physical well being". Gillette is a member of the Senate subcommittee that drafted the Connally resolution. V Military photography demands much both of men and material.

T. Stephenson, Of ficer in Charge, Navy Recruiting Station, Winston-Salem, N. C. Ship Repair Units—the SRU’s —fix damaged fighting ships at advance Nava! Bases. Or they follow in the wake of attacking task force, in fully equipped re pair ships, to repair all but major damage on the spot and get the ship and crew back Into the fight at the earliest possible moment. With the war being fought a long way from home, the repair of ships Is a totagh problem for the Navy, It is pointed out by Chief J. T. Stephenson. A bad ly damaged ship often cannot be towed 3,000 miles to the United ! States and American ships, even when fighting victorious battles, suffer damage. It’s the job of the men ot the Ship Repair Units :o keep ’em fixed and fighting. Qualifications for Enlistment, or voluntary induction of draft age men, in Ship Repair Units are, with few exceptions, similar to Seabee requirements. Carpen ters, Electricians, Riggers, WeM ers—mechanics ot all kinds—are needed for patriotic service where their skills can be used for Vic tory. Ship Repair Units volunteers are sent to a Naval TVaining Sta tion for four weeks Indoctrina tion. There they get into th-3 swing of Navy life, learning about Naval history, traditions and reg ulations and dripping. After a uiauons anu ujipyme. iinc, a --- . i. , month of this healthy out door submarine seryme before he took life, they are in top physical trim. The second phase of the train ing program is assignment to one of the great Naval stations for specialized training—the Section Base at Staten Island, N. Y.; The Naval Station at New .Orleans; Destroyer Base at San Diego, Calif.; The Navy_ Yard at Boston, Philadelphia, of Mare Island, California.

The Dorado, a craft of 1,525 tons, and one of the nafy’s most modern undersea fighters, had been In service less than two months when it disappeared. A communique said that the submarine,“Is overdue and must be presumed to be lost’,, and that the next of kin of the personnel, numbering about 65 officers and men, had been so informed. ^ The Dorado was the 13th Amer-1 lean submarine to be lost since' the beginning of the war. Nine of these met their end while participating with other ships’of the submarine fleet in a vigorous ocean-wide campaign which has resulted In the destruc tion of m'ore than 2,000,000 tons of Japanese merchant shipping. At least 319 Japanese warships and merchant vessels have been sunk by U. S. submarines, and 141 other . Japanase ships have been damaged by submarine gun fire and torpedo attacks. The Dorado, one of the 73 fleet submarines of the Gato class, was built by the Electric boat com pany, Groton, Conn., was was com missioned on August 28, 1943. Her_ skipper was Lt. Comdr. Earle Caffrey Schneider, 31, of Locust Knoll. Arnold, Md. His next of kin was his wife, Mrs. Stella Grace Schneider. Commander Schneider was graduated from the U. S.
