The Black Hawk Division didn't go to Europe until February and so, in point of combat seniority, its name is strictly "junior" in ramy parlance. But the men were sent in when the chips were down, just benefit of the brass horn he used to play, and then began to throw his weight around, at the taxpayers expense, orating gratuitous sneers at anybody who dared to disagree with his 2X4 dictatorship.

Arizona doesn't even run our own subway trains on time. They told us that Mussolini made the trains pop out of the Simplon Tunnel on the dot. Having ridden on Italian trains, I never believed that one. The alibis were simply gorgeous. But shave a moment and try to catch the train for Washington, at the Pennsylvania Station, or Boston or Chicago at the Grand Central, on the subway of Monsieur Le Chapeau.

And note: If he wants recorded instances, he knows where I hang out. Anticipating a retort from the patroon of Gracie Mansion, if, after yesterday's broadcast, he even has the nerve, Mr. C. would very much like to know why General Eisenhower should be fed a "meager" luncheon at'Gracie Mansion.

Another development on the black market front was a decision by the icty's independent grocers to bring 1,000 more retail shops into their co-operative buying venture, which now serves 365 such stores. The action was voted at the 24th annual conference of the United your house. And you remember a few phrases.
