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.

Navy Wants Men
For Hew Branch Mrs. j. w. Mitcheii
With recruiting for Seabees, the
Navy’s Construction Battalion,
ending'October 31, a similar pro
gram will begin immediately in
non-restricted manpower areas
for skilled workers In ship Re,-
pairs Units, It was announced to
day by Chief J. 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. Training consists of stroyed a large
Wife Of Commander
Lost Sub Is Niece Of
Washington, Oct. 24.—The navy
department today announced the
loss of the United States subma
rine Dorado, presumably the vie
tim of Japanese counter-action
while attacking enemy supply
lines In the far Pacific.
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. Nava)
academy in 1933, and had already
been decorated for outstanding
