MARTIN Wm; THE UNITED STATES ARMY AIR FORCE IN CHINA, July 24. (Delayed) U.R Col Robert L. Scott, commander of the United States Army's 23rd pursuit group, talks only of the offensive as he shapes his flyers into a striking force as powerful and dreaded as the famed American Volunteer group. To help keep alive the traditions cl the AVG, the group of American pilots who, in Chinese employ, shot down for certain 284 Japanese planes, he has preserved for his army air corps men the name which made it famous the "Flying Tigers." FLYING' TIGERS KfcPT The insignia originally wished on the group would have marie them "flying anpels." Scott wanted something a little more bellicose.

His new Insignia shows a huge snarling tiger Jumping throuRli the United States Army air corps white star on a blue background. The first design had the tiger tearing a red crescent to shreds, but the army ordered it painted out, because it resembled the Japanese rising sun emblem. The bulk of the flyers are green- horns only in the sense that they have not yet met the Japanese in combat. I asked one of the most famous AVG veterans, now a United States army major, and squad-ran leader, what he of them. YOUTH WANTED FIGHT Before he could answer, a radio Operator rushed through the door, reporting that he had established contact with a group of men training in the air and ordered them to investigate a long unknown pursuit plane which had been sighted several miles off.

The major threw himself into directing the Americans from the ground. "I hope that wasn't a Jap and we haven't missed our first crack." a young pilot muttered as he left the room. "There's your answer," the major said, turning to me. "That boy wanted to fight, and he wont be satisfied until he gets in the scrap. "As long as they are willing to fight, we can teach them now.

I know the AVG contained some of the best prospective fighting material in the United States, far better than the average army aroup. But these fellows have good instructors, thry have good morale, and above all thev want to live up to the AVG tradition. "Thev'll be good!" CHENNAULT IS PRAISED Scott told me that it was his happiest day when Brig. Gen. Claire L.

Chennault, former AVG chief and now commander of the American air force in China, appointed him commanding officer of the 23rd pursuit group.

U.I!-Hundred of frantic refugees from central Europe tonight bepRed admittance to unoccupied France In their efforts to escape a nazi pure of the occupied zone that has rounded up from 15.000 to 18.000 men, women and children for to concentration camps in Poland. The roundup, carried out bv Hcin-rich Himmler's 1 a SS troops and French police, was the bigRcst since the SS forces took over from the German army the Job cf policing occupied France.

VILLAGES LIQUIDATED The wholesale arrests were revealed in private advices to the United Press irom the continent and coincided with these new developments in the Axis reign of terror throuRh-out subjugated Europe: 1. The Germans, Italians and their puppet regimes began a systematic and ruthless destruction of entire villages and towns in Poland And Yugoslavia some by air bombings in an effort to crush spreading' guerrilla activity. 2. A fresh wave of resistance In Poland was reported to have been touched off by the landing of "se-eral hundred'' Russian parachutists, each a well-trained saboteur, to organize Polish guerrillas and carry out attacks on Germans garrisons and communications lines. 3.

The Aneta Dutch News reported that 60.000 Jews have been nrrested and shipped from Amsterdam since last Thursday in a mass deportation to nazi-occupied Russia and Poland of Dutch "non-Aryans. 600 JEWS GO DAILY Quoting advices from Zurich and Stockholm, Aneta said that about 600 Jews will be deported daily from Holland under a decree providing for the exile of all Dutch Jews between 18 and 40. The roundup in France, on Adolf Hitler's direct orders is directed have no more voice than in Petrillo's international and Rosenberg's local, but none in which they have less, for the rank and file musicians are simply speechless. They can be booted around even for thinking ill of their masters and they know-it and give no interference, because the union card is a license to work for bread and is revocable at will. But Jimmy's attitude toward amateur competition and the employment of standby musicians is nothing new and Mr.

Fly certainly should have known wht it was ail along. Jimmy has done nothing original here. He has only gone a little further along old lines and no further than he should have been expected to ro, on the precedents and tendencies of past performances. Of course, the situation is unpleasant, but this sort of thing comes under the heading of labor's gains and even Mr. Fly isn't able to say offhand just what law he would attempt to apply against Jimmy.

The Sherman and the anti-racketeering laws already have been tried against other unions, the latter in an almost parallel case of extortion by the teamsters, and the Supreme court has ruled that unions are exempt. Just lately Thur-man Arnold bureau has invoked the anti-kickback law against some Albany unioneers, but that would seem not to bear on the musicians' case. I hope I will be permitted a faint snicker, for Mr. Fly, an appointee of the party of humanity, and thus, I assume, a stout defender of labor's gains, has only now discovered something which I pointed out some years ago, only to be denounced as an enemy of labor. If anv New Deal bureau can overcome the political aversion of the whole administration to embarrassing truths, his inquiry Into the facts of this case will reveal information that will knock our citizens for a series of widening loops.

The division of labor standards in the Department of Labor is charged with the responsibility of formulating and recommending standards for sanitation and health in plants engaged primarily in the manufacture of goods for the U.

S. government. The congressman learned last Italian and Czechoslovak refugees who arrived in France since the outbreak of war in September, whether they are Jewish or ''Aryan."

Roosevelt in the operation of a picket line which was a plain racket. To call Petrillo a czar or a dictator is not to exaggerate or misuse a term which has lost meaning with overuse. The constitution of his union says that he, the president, may suspend or revoke any portion of it at will and substitute therefor any order that he deems necessary which shall become the law of the union. Judge Ferdinand Pe-cora, coming on this provision in a perusal of the constitution in a court proceeding, jerked his head up in a startlement and exclaimed, "Do you call this a constitution?" But they do and it is their constitution and anything that Jimmy says goes within the union and there appears to be no law of the United States which would restrain him in any action which the Supreme court, in its extremely generous view of things, regards as "ordinary union activity." The compulsory use of standby performers or workers by employers has been recognized as "ordinary union activity" and that is the principle that underlies Jimmy's orders from the throne in the present cases. The inner affairs of the union, and particularly of Local 802, which governs in New York, are very bad.

Heavy taxes are levied, fines and fees run high and the common membership constitutes a serf class serving -the union bosses and serving, in New York, the political aspirations of Jacob Rosenberg, the local president. A few years ago the head of another local up the state charged Mr, Rosneberg with patronizing, on his summer vacation with his family, a hotel In which nonunion musicians were employed, but, as Jimmy explained later, it was all a mixup over nothing, so nothing was done. Mr. Petrillo is not punctilious about such things, for he, himself, when in New York, as he often is, stops at a hotel which is nonunion from cellar to roof except the musicians. In Chicago, which Is his home, he is a Kelly man and his union has received vast sums from, the local taxpayers in payment for concerts and in New York Mr.

Rosenberg got himself nominated for the city council on the social-deinocratlc-communist ticket of the so-called American Labor party, idolized himself in the union's journal at the members' expense, exhorted the members, also at their expense, in the same journal and finally polled a total vote which was only a fraction of the membership of his own union. Thcv repudiated his ears off In the secret ballot of the public election, as they might do in a union election if allowed to.

Dr. Harding brings to Greenville and its vicinity the most up to the minute treatment available today in the following conditions: HERNIA (ruptures) the foremost and successful treatment of Hernia is done by injection method, whereby the patient does not lose any of his valuable working time, in keeping with the need of today that each working hour be utilized. Patient saves hospital bill, and as this method is practically painless, it should be the choice of everyone who is suffering from Hernia. This method has been thoroughly tested by thousands of doctors throughout our country, and more than a million very grateful patients will testify to the permanent results obtained from this method of treatment. HEMORRHOIDS (Piles) and other rectal disorders are treated in much the same manner, giving relief from low back pains, constipation, anemic conditions, which in many cases are responsible for Low Vitality We do not remove the vein which is involved but strengthen the tissue involved.

A pile is simply a varicose vein of that part, and as the veins of the rectum do not have valves, as are in all other true veins of the body, it makes our method a permanent one, Our treatment of all rectal disorders is purely an ambu-lant treatment. You may go about your work as usual, again saving hospital bills, pain, etc, PROSTATIC DISORDERS are treated while you continue on with your work. We use Medication driven into the tissue by Electron, also by injection into the tissue of the lobes of the Prostrate. We are able to clear up any infection of the part involved, as the Prostate is divided into lobes the same as th lungs or liver. We find that rarely ever more than two of the vesicles of the lobes are broken down at any one time.

So, we only treat the lobe involved, and never do we destroy the gland itself GOITERS The over-active pari-thyroid which is usually called, a toxic goiter, responds readily to our injection method. This being the only dangerous goiter it contributes to fast-heart in turn causing its en-largement from over-worked muscles. We do not destroy any tissue of the thyroid gland but we do rest the over-active pari-thyroid, which is the contributing factor to toxic Goiter. HYDROOOELES respond readily as do VARICOSE VEINS, to the injection of our Colloidal medi-cation. TONSILS REMOVED by the safest and sane way to remove a tonsil.

We use short-wave diathermy dehydration, whereby you will not lose one drop of blood, or miss any meals. All the methods used in our office practice here have been proven to our satisfaction in our Chicago Clinic in which I interned, and have access to work at any time, of which I take advantage one month out of each year.
