LAMAR CHEVROLET CO, 225-lst SW Phone 133 The tujbercle bacillus, the germ which causes tuberculosis, was dis- lovered in 1882 by Robert Koch, Pier Pirates Running Rampant Along New York's Waterfront By CARLE HODGE AP Ncwsfeatures Writer NEW YORK. On'a Manhattan pier a burly, denim-clad longshoreman drops a box of costly watches. The carton breaks open. Watches vanish A big truck lumbers off a clock.

The gate checker nods: "empty." A wary customs man peers at five cases of cloth These are the work of pier thieves who, swarming over this, the world's greatest port, like hordes of wharf rats, arc stripping docks and cargoes of loot which ship line officials say will total millions of dollars this year. Since the war's end, pilferage along New York harbor's 771 dingy, seething miles of waterfront has increased staggeringly as much, some pier people figure, as 100 percent over any past year, Whole Cargoes Stolen Entire shipments of liquor, lumber, meut and textiles have been stolen, trucked off the or floated away in small boats. But such hauls are what the waterfront respectfully refers to as "the big stuff." It is the dissolving mountain of little stuff- canned goods, candy, beer, pens- things that the thieves can use themselves or sell is harder to stop, harder to trace. Either way, the pattern oi; pilferage is much the same. Goods smoke-like.

Or else boxes are split with the heavy, ugly cargo hooks that longshoremen wear in their the slowly away. The men on whom most of the thievery is blamed are those who work on the docks, the brawny and clam-silent longshoremen, sailors and truckers. Some Is Inevitable Shipping lines agree that some stealing on the piers is inevitable. But they say the situation is worse than it was in 1919-20 when the harbor reached state of open P1 No 'one has tallied the port's total losses to pilferers, because most steamship companies refuse to disclose their individual losses. One line's claim agent, though, says that 10 years ago he received about $3,500 a year in claims.

In the past 10 months he's had In a move to crush the evil waterfront interests ship lines stevedoring companies, railroads tug operators, watching services insurance organizations-are re viving the Bureau for the Sup Session of Theft and Pilferage tP hey formed just after World War Members have, so far, blamed the bTggest of the thefts on or- ganized'gangs. Strikingly few Pil ferers have been jailed. Evidence is difficult to obtain. Shipping firms are reluctant to file complaints against workers because of (1) fear of reta ation- work stoppages, say-by other em. ployes and (2) fear of suit for false the Hudson River 2,144 cafes of scarce scotch whiskey, out of a load of 77,000 cases, disappeared off 'the freighter Empire me of the loot was found ckpd around motors of UUCKS taffing off the dock.

Some sup- pSy was sailed away in small craft. On the dock itself were 700 scattered, empty cases. So goes the pilfering a for- une in Swiss-watches off the b. aka $500 worth of bulky lumber off an army clock office machines leather goods. A barometer of the growing thefts could be the capture ot pier thieves by the Customs Services alert port patrolmen.

In August, 1940, they nabbed 10 (in addition customs violators). Last August hey held 153. Even this year the figures have oared: 78 January, 98 in 1 March, 126 in May, 149 in July. Charges with stemming the tide thievry is the city police's wat- rfront squad of detectives. Its boss is a crack, colorful sleuth, Lt.

bhnny Cordes, Cordes, however, denies that ivaterfronjt pilferage in New York las increased. Army Gets Tough If the pier thieves are under the numb of the law anywhere, it is the Army's sprawling port of mbarkation in Brooklyn, guarded ike a bristling Alcatraz. It is the market basket for Europe's occupation troops. From its three piers millions of dollars worth of are piped overseas. There, the walls virtually have ears.

Uniformed guards supplement Army Criminal Investigation Department agents, GI plain- ctothesmen who dress as dock workers and mingle with the perspiring, husky men loading the ships. Probably on no other docks in the harbor is pilferage so curbed. Vet in, one recent month alone, 220 cases were investigated on the trio of wharves; 350 arrests fol- lowed. A CID agent who smells liquor on a longshoreman's breath sur mises he must have stolen it. He trails the suspect, sprawls flat atop a nearby stack of crates to watch him take more.

The pil ferer is nailed as he prepares to leave the base. In one week, the CID detach ment recovered a truck tire, a com plete radio transmitter, kitchen sink, motor oil, liquor, candy, assorted foodstuffs and other items And still loot somehow seeps out of the base, past the high fences and the armed guards. LOOKING Tension At Thanksgiving Time Is Not Unusual Now By J. ROBERTS JR. Foreign Affairs Analyst As for many years past, Americans come to their traditional feast day in an atmosphere of international tension and domestic difficulties Our allies no longer stand closely with us as during the war, and at home we are torn by industrial strife.

Although as individuals we are probably more comfortable than for many years, as a nation we are apprehensive, doubtful of our ability to solve our problems either at home or abroad. Yet looking back over the years we find many grounds for thank fulness that fears have proved 'un founded, for dangers surpassed. By Thanksgiving -time in 1939 Adolf Hitler had plunged the world into war. Gain of 6,000,000 Households Due In U. S.

This Decade AP News-features WASHINGTON The Census Bureau says that when the decade ends in 1950 these two things will have hapened to American households. 15,000,000 new ones will be formed, 9,000,000 will be broken up. Thus there will be a net gain of 6,000,000 households. In Bureau parlance a household is a head of family plus relatives, lodgers and others living under the same roof and sharing common household arrangements. Total U.

S. families in 1950 will be 41,000,000. The reason for the big increase in the number of families is the marriage rate in the past few a year. This is 50 per cent higher than in the late 1930s. Many of.

the newlyweds have put off setting up new households until more housing js available and their economic situation is better. Reason for the breaking up of the 9,000,000 homes: Chiefly death and divorce. New Hugo Planning Group Names Officers HUGO, Okla. (Special). Dr.

E. P. Childs, retired educator, was elected chairman of the newly- created. City Planning Commission, which met Tuesday night at the city hall. Bill Smith and Ben Dean were named vice-chairman and secretary, respectively, The new commission, first of its kind in the history of Hugo, was set up under the state law, which provides that all public improvements must be submitted and recommended by such a board as was named last week by Mayor F.

Armstrong, present board chairman, said The'former chairman is Jack W. Steele, 64, who died at Casper, Wyo. A year later France was a shambles, Nazi invasion boat: lined channel coast, and Amcr icans fought with lumps in their throats to fill the supply lines to a little island off Europe which stood as a lone barrier between the beast and all the rest of mankind. Thanksgiving of 1942 found our men and ships embroiled with the enemy from the Solomons to Africa, the eyes of the world were on the bitter German attempt, to capture Stalingrad, and Hitler had just taken over all of France and the French had scuttled their fleet at Toulon. On Thanksgiving day of 1943 brief announcements told Americans ihat their sons were dying on many fronts, In 1944 the heart was taken out of America's Thanksgiving by the Allied bog down on the German front.

Our armies were short of supplies, stalled. We still looked forward to what was expected to be a blood bath at the crossing of the Rhine, and within a few days we were to face one of the'bitterest battles of American Bulge, Last, year we were washing the dirty dishes left over from the worst meal of crow we had ever Harbor. And the great General Motors strike began, setting off reverberations which have not yet quieted. Yes, we have come through trouble, and we are still in trouble. But the spectre "of hunger which stalks so much of the world throws no shadows over the American board today.

If have a coal shortage, we shall only be deprived of something which millions elsewhere have learned not to even expect. But probably the greatest thing America has to be thankful for today is that the end of shooting this time has not lulled her into a sense of false security; that she is alive to her responsibilities in the world; that she is determined to wage an unremitting battle against a repetition of the recent years Legal Notice Sealed bids will be received in the office of State Board of Control AUB- tin Texas, until 10:00 a.

Donald Duck, Bugs Bunny and Andy Panda appear doomed to cavort less and less on the nation's screen, and may face eventual extinction.

That's the gloomy outlook presented by Hollywood cartoon makers. Columbia has already abandoned its Screen Gems, and other announcements are in the making. Walter Lanz, president of the Screen Cartoon Producers Association, declares the" public will see less cartoons in 1947. and as for he shudders to think of it. The reason for this pessimism is that cartoon costs have risen 165 per cent since 1941, while rentals to exhibitors have upped only 12 per cent, Although theatre attendance is the greatest in history, cartoons get only a flat $2.50 to $4 for each play date, while the better, features get a healthy percentage of the take.

Added to this is the trouble in getting color prints; nnd the public will not accept black and white cartoons. Eh, what's up, Bugs Bunny? Worried? Another development movie patrons can expect is longer pictures this winter. The prestige pictures are- coming, and you'd better got. training for them. Just how to do that I don't know, but you might try a few squatting exercises.

Film producers apparently work under the theory that in order to be great, a picture has to be long. Take a look at the supcrspecials designed for academy consump- tion.
