REED WHO WILL GET SECOND PLACE IN 1944 ON THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET?: A great deal of gossip pervades the cloakrooms about the person who will receive^ the Presidential blessing for second choice on his ticket in 1944. It | will be recalled that in 1940. Mr. i Roosevelt forced an unwiHing Democratic Convention to name Harry A. I Wallace as his running mate instead of the late Speaker Bankhead, who I was the real choice of the delegates. Speaker Bankhead however, was from the solid South, which is traditionally Democratic, and it is said that the President felt that Wallace, being from the middle west, would add political i strength to the ticket. Wallace, however, did not turn the trick, and the ; middle west, including1 Iowa, Wallace's I own- state, ,'w**'"carried by the G. O. P. Now. it is said that the President faj vors Jamfes ;F. Byrnes, War Mobilizaj tiort Director and former Justice of ; the Supreme Court for the Vice-Presidential nomination in> 1944. From recent newspaper stories, it would seem quite certain that, come what may. Secretary of Commerce Jesse Jones, who has always been a power ; in Democratic politics, will not be ; found beating the drums for the rencmination of the present Vice-President. , WARS COST MDNEY: Last year Congress- appropriated one hundred and forty billions of dolilar$. During the- first six months of ! this year it has voted out /one hundred 'and five billions. However, there is some consolation in the fact'that the present Gerfgress has eliminated se'v eral of the tax eating1 bureaus and henceforth, no further appropriations .will be made for their maintenance. But only the surface has ben scratched. There are still plenty to be abolished and all could stand reducing. Senator Harry F. Byrd (Dem.), of Virginia, chairman of a committee to ilivestigate the executive agencies of tnK^overnment, recently stated that thereVare 300,000 persons on the federal payrolls that could be eliminated without impairing the efficiency of the government.

Pilots Learn Their Job Quickly Gadgets Help Them Handle All Emergencies. MATHER FIELD, CALIF.--Uncle Sam's, demand for more pilots, trained faster, has brought out the American inventiveness in the army men wh'ose job it is to push the training program. At nearly every field there is some new gadget or system to speed training programs. Take Mather for instance. This advanced flying school, set in the level Sacramento valley, has turned out its share of navigators and pilots. v The U. S. army air forces put special emphasis on flying safety aifd the experts say a high percentage of training accidents is caused by. faulty understanding of the plane*' hydraulic meqhanisms. , When something goesT wrdng with his plane, the pilot should know in a •flash just what ha$ happened to., "thi; "mechanism.

JOHNSBURG IE IS VTAR\ED This tveek Kathleen Norris ivarns the young man in service against the kind of tvoman or young girl tvho mistakes the shallow thrill of wartime romance for the steady devotion he experts to come home to. The 1'era o fth is letter thought she uas in love u-ith a young man who is how reported missing in the Solomons. Vera found another, richer and more prominent escort in the meantime, and now she admits that she hopes the first young man will not return. m # 41 m "Many girls are having fomantic experiences far beyond anything they hoped or • dreamed u-ould happen. Sudden marriages cram the social columns of the neu-spa- Iters." '--v. 'rfH exciting influx of dozens of young soldiers into so many of -our quiet small towns, many v^irls are having romantic experiences far beyond anything they ever ho|>ed or •dreamed would happen, and strange complications are arising in consequence. Sudden marriages cram the social columns of the newspapers. Only this morning a marriage is announced between a charming California girl and a young lieutenant ;&hom she had known exactly 22 •days. In another 22 days he will '.fee off for ports unknown, and the 'jjjirl-wife-widow will have months of loneliness to face! If she mopes and grieves at home she loses a great- •deal of natural young pleasure and Amusement, and if she goes out wjith other men she will quickly forget ,«ven what David looks like. Either way, such a marriage is a mistake, •nd foredoomed to trouble of one •*ort or another. Another angle on this hastyarervice- marriage situation is presented to me in a letter from Alicia K., who lives in Tucson. Alicia had m scldier-beau last June, and although she is barely 20, and the man only a few years older, and although they had known £ach other only a few weeks, they were eager to be mariied before he sailed •way. Alicia's stepmother prevented them, and Alicia says she will never forgive her. The stepmother prevailed upon Alicia's father and grandfather to forbid the match, and the young man, resenting their attitude, went off without saying'goodby. ' Tragedy of Sweethearts. Last week he was reported missing in action in the Solomons, and "Alicia feels worse than ever. Oh, Why couldn't they have had at least • few weeks as man and wife, she wails. By this time a baby might pave been on the way--Steve's child, . ito comfort her, and take his father's place! Yes, that's true, Alicia. To be a young widow, expecting a hero's posthumous child, is a role very appealing to your 20 years, and you quite naturally feel cheated out of it. . But, if you had married your Steve, you might find yourself with another sort of role to play--one not Half as romantic and easy. For Steve might have come home early in the peace, to turn out to be quite different from the man you remember. Indeed, you might hardly know Steve by sight, much less be willing to spend your whole life with him. Or you might have met the man you liked far more than you ever liked Steve; you might, while Steve was away, have discovered your true mate, and have had in honesty to meet Steve with the bitter news that you and little Steve weren't ever going back to him. That happened in the last war, inar.y times.--Girls who after a few dances, a few thrilling visits to the $ig camp, had jumped into hasty fnarri&ges, found the tie extremely feurcensome when the men came home. Another variation of this problem comes to me in a letter from a girl in Miami. Vera didn't marry her young man, but their engagement was announced and they planned a wedding for March of this year, when he expects to get back with his bomber and will have a few weeks leave. Joey writes his Vera faithfully, and tells her that the thought of her is like a guardian angel alf Waukegan day inV the r. and Mrs, ways beside him. His mother writes her, too, and thanks her for her wonderful goodness to her boy.' "Joey hasn't had much happiness in his life, because of responsibility for me and for his s;ster," the mother writesr "But now Margaret is married, and I am so much better, and it rejoices all our hearts to think of the joy that has come to the best son and brother in the world." Girl Meets Preferred Boy. The trouble is that Vera has met David, and David is everything that a young girl dreams. He is 32 to Joey's 24; he is in uniform, stationed in Washington, marked for a distinguished career. . "I went up to stay with my cousin in,Baltimore," writes Vera, "and at a service dance met David. He is everything--EVERYTHING. Handsome, quiet, authoritative, with a wonderful social position, and rich. When I told him about Joey, and my engagement, I couldn't make things quite as-definite as they were, and as a result David talks of Joey's feeling for me as if it were not very serious, and of mine toward Joey as if it were all a girl's kindness in a time that is emotional for us all. So that I am really in a bad predicament, for naturally I am afraid of losing David if things hang fire too long, and I cannot think now of marrying Joey without a shudder. For what I feel lor him now I see is merely affection and sympathy. Sometimes of late, lying awake and worrying for the first time in my life, I have felt that it would be almost the best solution to hear that something had happened to Joey, for anything is better than breaking his heart, and yet I feel that I have to be honest with myself and David, too." It is perhaps quite obvious that Vera is a shallow little creature, quite carried away by the excitement of having two handsome uniformed beaus in a few short months. And it is also obvicus that Joey is to be congratulated if he faces the humiliation and disappointment that Vera's treatment will cause him, and waits to find a worthier woman. Girl Unsure of Feelings. But at the same time, young girls are often carried by war-time changes and thrills, into what seems a very real feeling, and it is not their fault that the feeling does not last. Years ago, it used to be against the gallant sailors and soldiers who loved and kissed and went aw$y that girls were warned. But now the warning should go both ways, and the youngsters who indulge in these flirtations ought to be willing to leave them at flirtation status. My advice to Vera, which she will not follow, is to wait until Joey comes back again, and then have a talk with him, give him back the plain little ring that cost him a month's pay, and explain? that she was too young to be sure of hei* feelings, last June, and wants to wait for awhile before, she marries anyo n e . - - • , v \ ' - - ; . i (By Mrs. Arthur Klein) i The infant son of Second Class 'Petty Officer and Mrs. Raymond Gaylord was christened Donald Raymond, with Mrs. Ben J.

It is placed in kegs and sent to,the Goodwill Industry plant, f where the men work. , j There, the parts are roughly sort-1 ed from a movable leather belt into boxes containing nuts, bolts, screws and other parts. Each box is resorted two or three times to get out the different sizes of aluminum, copper and steel pieces. j "All of the men are those who ! can't take more active part in the I war effort and their work follows a real national policy which America has adopted--elimination of waste," said George Edward Davis, 62, in charge of the shop.

Sunshine is essential in growing a good garden because seeds need warmth for germination and the plants require sunlight to manufacture food. Soil is the most important factor affecting cplant growth. If subsoil from excavation has been placed on the surface, the soil will require conditioning before a good garden can be grown. Well rotted manure, leaf mold, rotted plant residues, peat moss, or muck should be spaded into the soil to provide organic matter and to allow air to enter. Sifted ashes or sand will lighten heavy soils. Gardens on sandy soils may require watering. ' South Africa Blocks O f f Spies, Protect.
