This Day in Ithaca's History: what gpeliswhi.1 paNtieewncel'ocraknaSctcroamn fleas, for instance Ever been to a flea circus, and watched them waltz together, and run races, and haul chariots? Well, take it from Donald Meek, the actor, It's more gravity than patience, or skill. When a flea is hauling a chariot, the table is tilted a little He isn't pulling the chariot. The chariot is pushing him downhill Same way when they They're running down hill. The incline is slight, but it's there.

It's gravity. Meek, who has first hand knowledge of such matters, was Once top man in a pyramid. He worked with tumblers, with acrobats. In Canada, in a fall one day, be broke his collarbone. That opened his eyes.

Suppose he had broken his back? you can't take bows with a broken back, now can you? So Meek became an actor. His co-workers say he is one of the few really good ad-lib aCtorS on the screen. Rarely pays attention to a script. The sense of the lines just comes to him, and he uses his own words. Since we're talking about actors today, let's talk about Lugosi, the spook He's the man who, with Karloff, scares the daylights out of you in You say to Lugosi, "Hey, as a kid, were you ever frightened?" "Not says Lugosi.

"There were too many of us I had seven or eight brothers and sisters I slept in a room with half a dozen kids How could I be scared? "But, I'll tell you one thing. When I became an actor, and went to Hollywood. I got myself a big house. Maybe it was too big. I used to shut myself up in one wing of that house at night, and read sometimes till nearly morning.

But the main point of Senator Byrd's charge, after all, was that confusion, duplication of effort, Waste and extravagance, have slowed down the defense program, that these conditions can only be corrected by appointment of a supreme head over the entire defense program.

The most important thing to do, he said, is "eliminate the conflicting authority that now exists between different officials and agencies in Washington." Questions and Answers: How About Tank Cars A survey of idle tank cars ready to be utilized to bring oil to the East Coast area has now been ordered by Ralph K. Davies, acting petroleum co-ordinator. It's about time such action was taken. The Journal has called attention to the positive statements made by railroad men that such cars were available, but were not being used. Just the other day J.

J. Pelley, president of the American Association of Railroads, again affirmed that there are 17,557 surplus tank cars which could move 200,000 barrels of oil daily to the East. Davies called upon the petroleum industry to press all available cars into service forthwith, while Pelley said: All they have to do is to order them and load them, and we will move thezn to whatever destination they direct. One suspects one reason why these cars have not been used promptly is that it costs.the companies more money to move oil that way than by tanker or pipeline. That's where the petroleum co-ordinator can give real service.

Gasoline consumers are willing to pay more, if it is a legitimate charge for a necessarily somewhat more expensive type of transportation which can enlarge the available supply of motor fuel. are not willing to pay more simply because dealers can get it. They expect the federal authorities, with local co-operation, to avert any squeezing of that kind. Though reports are somewhat conflicting, it appears efforts are being made to have oil companies supply stations with gasoline for the Labor Day holiday and weekend. That should be done, even if it is necessary to draw somewhat upon reserve stocks, with less gasoline after the holiday.

Countless persons have based plans upon use of their motor cars for trips during this period. Mr. Davies has indignantly repudiated as wholly false estimates that Britain did not really need the 80 tankers originally transferred. Assuming he is right, is there anything to rumors that another hundred tankers are to be diverted? The people will accept that, too, if it is necessary to enable Britain to keep on fighting effectively and to win the Battle of the Atlantic. But the government should be frank in explaining the situation, if such a demand is' eventually made.

Meanwhile, the petroleum administration should take its job seriously. It should devise better and more workable regulations for such restriction as is now necessary. Above all, it should stimulate and support every possible means of getting oil or gasoline from regions where it is plentiful, since there is no national shortage of petroleum products. Washington One of the more amazing and frightful aspects about the "science' of modern war is the way it has of developing while in progress. And the uncensored reports of observers returning to the United States bear proof that every day, in every way, it is becoming worser and worsen The case of airplane speed and armament is a perfect example of war's increasing efficiency.

It was only two years ago that the beganhow time does fly but in the lovely harvest season of '39, an airplane that could do 350 miles an hour was all right. Today it must do 400 to 450, or be shot down. Airplane engines that could rate 1,000 or 1,500 horsepower could get by, but today 2,000 h. p. is a minimum, and 2,500 or better must be achieved soon if there is to be superiority in the air.

Planes that could climb to 30,000 feet were safe in '39 but today they must reach Two machine guns and one cannon made combat planes pretty formidable in the old days, but today they Packthree or four cannons and six or eight machine guns. Newest device of death and destruction is reportedly the acoustic or harmonic mine. It is a successor to the magnetic mine, which became obsolete as soon as the magnetic belt was invented and all ships were equipped with this ring of cables- through which a current was passed to set up an induction field that would counteract the magnetic field of the mine, making it harmless. Not much is known about the acoustic mine, but the principle of its operation is fairly simple. Instead of being zet off by the ship's natural magnetic field, it is set off by the vibration or the ship's engine, the transrniseion of sound waves through water.

It being practically impossible to build a vibrationiess or perfectly silent ship, licking this acoustic mine may be a lot harder than overcoming the magnetic mine. One report in Washington is that the Germans have discontinued using the magnetic mine at sea, converting those on hand into land mines to drop by parachute from bombing planes. Motor Miss No Miss Another ingenious use of sound waves has been figured out by the German technicians. When German bombers first came over England, it was noticed their engines, instead of having a steady, even roar, seemed to exhaust unevenly and at variable pitch. British plane builders were at first inclined to scoff, saying the Nazis didn't know how.

to build good motors. But when the British plane detecting devices tried to pick up German planes by means of mechanical' ears and radio listening posts, it was found that this uneven beat of the German motors made extremely difficult the task of telling quickly the height of an attacking bomber. Now, it is understood, British bombing plane engines are also being re-geared to give off the uneven drone beat so as to throw off German listening posts. Chatter about the mysterious Sperry bomb sight, perfected for use by U. S.

bombers, has of course been limitless. Hailed as the greatest secret weapon of the present war, it enables bombers to drop their eggs in pickle barrels from It has been hc reports Ngse reao en sf it aui eesdvpfEater hrroutramet 5,000 feet with uncanny regularity. this given tiaocstnotos ahnu lbemt elhse lbadbnseuidvtgi for the reason that its use is dependent on perfect visibilitya condition frequently found on the bombing ranges near Denver and the California deserts, but only infrequently in Europe. Anti-Aircraft Antiquated? Speaking of anti-aircraft guns, quite a point has been made that the United States defenses were practically a blank on 'this type of equipment. But some observers have returned with the theory that it doesn't make much difference, for anti-aircraft batteries seldom bring down a plane, and their use in keeping bombers up high applies only to the area immediately a ove the battery.

Another idea of defense that a the British have had to modify to a certain extent is the use of volunteer fire fighters to combat started by incend iary bombs. At first, it was the idea that the good tough Britons Spring- ft ing from every cot, he' heath and hedgerow, would stomp out the fires and protect their homes from the despoiler. But it hasn't worked out quite that way. It takes nerve to check these incendia fires when thousands rY res of bombs are dro Piling over a city, and under er this type of raid, the volunteer is next to useless. What it takes is professional fir fighters on the job all the time.

All letters are confidential. How much truth there may be in stories of low morale in army camps we don't know. General Marshall says morale was all right until people started debating about whether service should have been extended; then it fell. Naturally. Be all that as it may have been, these things seem obviously true: 1.

If we are going to have any army at all, its morale should be tip-top. 2. If it isn't tip-top, nothing is gained by wringing hands and moaning about how bad it is. 3. General Lear is right when he says that any deficiency in morale in the army merely reflects low morale back home.

4. The way to improve morale is to improve morale. The army is doing its share. The young men in the army are the best in the world. They are our young men, Americans, and there are no better.

Now how about your share? 5. Review in your mind exactly what you have done to help keep the boys' spirits up. If you haven't done one solitary thing, isn't it about time? it '-4 1 i. Q. How did Stalin achieve his position of power in the USSR? A.

He was one of the 12 men who planned the November, 1917, revolution that placed Lenin at the head of the government. For some time after the revolution he was people's commissar for national affairs but, not caring for political office, he created for himself the office of general secretary of the Communist Party. After the death of Lenin in.1924, he' formed a triumvirate with Kamenev, vicepresident of the People's Council, and Zinoviev, president of the Third Internationale, the purpose of which was to overthrow Leon Trotsky, who, next to Lenin, was the most powerful figure in the USSR, and was minister of war. After driving a Barbs: John Selby: The Literary Guidepost Too Sensible for Congress Just why Congressional search for tax revenue should take the form of a school-boy scramble for marbles it is difficult to understand. It is against this undignified and unintelligent scramble that Senator Vandenberg of Michigan offers a sensible scheme.

He would establish four basic forms of taxation: individual income, corporation, manufacturers' sales tax, and inheritance and fulli'ther he would "simplify" the levies applied to each. The new tax he proposes, the manufacturers' sales tax, often has been proposed. It has been opposed by those who have declared that any sales tax falls heaviest on those least able to pay. He would eliminate this objection by exempting food, clothing and medicines. But the argument is unsound, as he says it is, if it is used to compare a sales tax with other taxes.

Tax students- know that the incidence the final paymentof any tax falls on the ultimate consumer. One detail of his proposal is that instead of hunting new forms of taxes, if further increased revenue is imperative, the rates on the forms already established should be increased. He would not eliminate established "nuisance" taxes; those on beer, tobacco, but he rightly objects to the suggested flat $5 use tax on automobiles. The Senator's proposals bring a note of sanity and judgment into a situation that is hysterical and confused. They deserve sharp and thoughtful attention from the public and particularly from his fellow I 1 Now starting from that basis, let us call attention to one thing that is being done.

In Cleveland, there is being promoted a "Bundles From Home" movement. On a given day, people from all over the Cleveland area are going to gather together bundles for boys in the service whom they know, or even whom they don't know. They're going to mail them all at once; one or more camps of Ohio soldiers are going to get a sudden deluge of presents and remembrances from home that will show them that they aren't forgotten, that they an'd their service are appreciated. A box of candy a carton of cigarets an article of clothing a book of stamps a package of razor blades there are a thousand little remembrances that can be sent, either personally to a relative or friend, or impersonally to the troops in general, and they're all welcome. They will all tend to show the boys that they have not been cut off from America; that we at home, as well as they at camp, are all serving one causethe C.ause of the country we love.

We have a hunch that this movement will spread. It's a game anybody can play; it doesn't take much money. Morale low at camp? Don't blame the boys. Don't blame the Army. Don't blame the harsh world in general.

Accept your share of the blameand do something! Trotsky out of office, and finally out of Russia, Stalin "purged" Kamenev and Zinoviev and made himself virtual dictator. Q. In what sections of the United States can ginseng be cultivated? A. It is best adapted to the Northeastern, North Central, and North Pacific Coast states, but can also be grown successfully in the Apalachian Mountain region. Its culture is not recommended for the South, the Great Plains, or the Southwest.

Q. The present wheelbase of my truck is 146 inches, and I would lkie to extend it to 170 inches. By doing this will the hill-climbing power remain the same? A. Unless the tire size or differential gear ratio is also changed, tractive power would remain the same. If, however, the extended body is given a heavier load than the original, then speed and ability to climb hills would be less.

Q. What does a star or asterick before the numerals on a bank note signify? A. That the note has been substituted in a regular series for a defective note. Q. What is the chief industry of Iceland? A.

Fishing. Iceland's fisheries produce cod and herring valued at five million dollars a year. Q. Is there a wax that is alcohol-proof, or something else that will serve this purpose? A. The National Bureau of Standards has no information about waxes that are alcohol-proof.

Tests indicate that typical floor waxes, containing volatile solvents such as turpentine or mineral spirits, furnish a wax coating that is fairly resistant to alcohol. The marks produced by alcohol are usually easy to remove by polishing. Q. What color is freshly distilled whisky A. It is colorless, and contains no solid matter.

After being stored in wood for several years it acquires an amber tint, and contains perhaps 100 grains Of solid matter per gallon, including tannin, extractive and coloring matter, all derived from the oak commonly used in the barrels. Q. Who were the Jacobins of France and why were some persons in the United States called by that name? A.

"A Thousand Shall Fall," by Hans Habe From where I sit, I can see 19 recent books based in one or another way on the war. They have arrived in a bitter and endless stream, and they still are arriving. No man could read them all.

Yet all men should read some of them. Today's text is Hans Habe's "A Thousand Shall Fall." Habe is a Hungarian. He has written all his adult life, and even before. He was at 21 one of the youngest editors in Europe, on Der Morgen, in Vienna. Like most of our war book writers, he traveled Europe as correspondent, covered the League of Nations for a time, dug first into Hitler's family history and earned Nazi enmity for what he found.

He always has been violently anti-nazi, and in 1932 escaped death at the hands of the party a little too narrowly for comfort. One of his novels has been burned publicly in Germany, and another, published in Zurich, brought a formal protest from Germany. But Habe has never been solely a man of letters, or a correspondent. He believes in direct action, and when the war began he left his safe home in Geneva and enlisted in France's 21st Infantry of Foreign Volunteers under Col. Paul du Buissy, and fought in desperate engagements at the Luxembourg and Belgian frontiers.

He had a share in those battles in which the French tried to stave off Nazi anks an armored cars with rifles. On June 21, 1940, Habe was in the Vosges, near a village called Charmes, and there he was captured and sent to a camp. Less than two months later he had escaped and was trying to make his way into unoccupied France. With the aid of 30 sausages and the appetite therefore of the German border -guards, he crossed the River Doubs, eventually saw his wife again, and made his way to Portugal with the Gestapo death sentence still over him. Now he is in New York.

By this time it must be evident that Habe's story is not unique. But it is distinguished by his writing, which is first rate, and by the clarity with which every move 14 has made is related to the problems of the world and of the war.

If they don't, something more stringent will have to be tried, and we suspect that some of the same people who now ridicule the voluntary effort as inadequate and call for something stronger will then cry dictatorship. Honest Harold seems to be overreaching himself a bit, however, when he suggests that other parts of the country which have plenty of gasoline should pretend they have a shortage just so they can have the pleasure of suffering with the unfortunate East.

If such gasoline as would be saved in other sections could be sent east to relieve the shortage there, there might be something to the idea. But it can't. The problem is one of transportation, not supply. Sacrifice, denial, even suffering for a purpose, because it is unavoidable, is one thing. But if one man in the office happens to have a pair of tight shoes, for all the others to take off their comfortable Ones and don tight shoes, just to be sympathetic, or just to be miserable along with the unlucky onethat's pretty close to perverted.

If production really is proceeding as well as the President says it is, there can be no harm in letting the Public in On the facts.

To be sure, the figures he gave on the number of tanks, planes and guns actually' delivered to Britain seem hardly impressive in comparison to the admitted need. Whether they may be considered satisfactory depends on one's expectation. The output of planes in July, the President admitted, was substantially what Senator Byrd said it wasabout 1,465 for all types. In regard to tanks, it is to be noted that the President said vaguely that "hundreds" had been sent to Britain, although he mentioned no specific figures, while in regard to anti-aircraft guns he said mainly that he expected the schedule of 61 per month for the remainder of the year would be met. These are encouraging figures, yet they would have been even more in .11,,, .1.
