NEW YORK'S GREATEST PARADE FOR VICTORY Have You Heard? With 500,000 marchers and 2.500,000 spectators. New York went all-^ut in its greatest parade a 10-hour, day and nigrht procession of victory-confident American*. British troops, in their summer uniform shorts, add an international note to the spectacle as they swing past Vice President Wallace and King George of Greece on the reviewing stand. What Science Is Doing SOME BIG BUSINESS IN FARMING Elmer ron Claim, a farmer In palifornia, also rates as a big buai- aaes man, as his 40,000 acre tract ftelds a $1,500,000 harvest in a rear, says Popular Science Month- ly. With a floating dredge capable of running half a year without re- fueling, five airplanes, and a fleet it tractors, trucks, and land scrap- er*. Von Qlahn will harvest grain an'! cotton worth $1,500,000 from bU farm this year. This 40,000- re farm in the San Joaquin Val- has been made as fertile as the . lie Valley by the- ingenious and intelligent use of machinery, which ftot only plants and harvests the pops, but keeps under control Vu'.ar~ Lake, the source of life Xt'is farm yet a constant threat flood. On Von Olahn'g farm lying la 136 mile crescent on the shore* the lake irrigation Is done in big way. Four huge electric suck up 12.000 gallons of a minute, five other seta |Ut It 36 feet and fill 25 miles e)t main canals and hundreds of (Bllfj of secondary ditches. Water is turned in on patches as big as MOO acres and allowed to stand for 20 days or so at a time. But this farmer 1* not content With ordinary irrigation. In a drought, even the. deepest canals tight fall. To meet this possibil- ity there is ready a wheeled ma- chine which can scoop water from Walls and lay It over an acre a d*>- to a depth of from 1 to It Inches. During the flood season, Von Qlalui tours his lands by plane, tils special machine tor flood fighting is a huge floating dredge With a three yard bucket. It is perated by a two man crew and **a be rushed to any danger spot in the levee for quick repair work before crevices become too large. In an elevator aud warehouse, one man handles S5 tons of grain *u hour as it rides endless belts the pit. Establishes Joint Production Board U. S. and U. K. To Pool All Food Resources A saving of 25 per cent in ocean hipping space may result from the establishment of a British- American War Production Board, authoritative sources estimated recently. Iu addition, further economies in cargo space may be effected through the creation of an Anglo- American food board. The two new agencies, designed to combine the war and food pro- duction efforts of the two coun- tries, were announced by Presi- dent Roosevelt lit behalf of him- eelf and Premier Winston Chur- chill. Donald M. Nelson, war pro- duction board director, and Oliver Ujrttleton, British minister of pro- duction, will form ?he production board. Three Objectives An authorized spokesman said these three- objectives were the immediate goals: 1. Savings of shipping space through allocation of production in uch a way that supplies could be moved from the produciug area k>stvst to the war theatre for which they are Intended. In some cases such as India machine tools and equipment might be moved there to set up local manu- facturing unit*. 8. Standardization as far an uos- i-'i of weapons used by the Unit- ed Nations 10 that ammunition Aud parts would be Interchange- Me, S. Cons Ul era tiou of the total &U.U* British production capacity a* one va*t Industrial empire In order to gain a maxi- mum of efficiency from aiUtJuf machinery. Only the two countries were In- cluded In the plan because other United Nations powers are not producing war materials sufficient to meet even their own demands, and thus have no shipping prob- lem. Mr Roosevelt made olear, however, that Canada would par- ticipate in any joint action through her membership on the British Supply Council. Combined Food Board One development from the Joint production effort, official* said, might be a concentration of bomber production in the United States while Britain steps up pro- duction of fighter planes. Bombem can be flown to England, bat smaller planes have to be taken IB ships. The "combined food board" was expected to fulfill virtually the same functions in regard to cor- relating the production and dis- tribution of food among the Unit- ed Nations. It a'jo will seek to reduce shipping space by restric- tion of non-essential imports. In- creased use of concentrated foods and improved method* of stowing and packing. In addition the board will deal with all other questions of food policy and strategy. The entire food resources of the United States and Britain will be considered as a common pool. H.M.S. "Penelope" Now "Pepperpot" Cruiser Shot Full of Holes Is Re-christened Tha British cruiser Penelope to so full of holes her crew haa re- christened her the H.M.S. "Pepper- pot." but she's being patched up to defy again air and sub attacks, her skipper said, In telling of his hair-raising experiences. Captain Angus Nlcholl said his ship, called one of the "most bombed boats afloat." had been patched up at Malta, again at Gibraltar, and now Is at an Kas- t-iu United State*? port for a "face-lfting" operation. She was a whole ship when Capt. Nicholl assumed command in March, 1940. During air raids at MaUa. she earned the nickname "Pepperpot." Between Malta and Gibraltar, the crew ran luto more gunfire and plugged her holes with wood. For a while the crew called her the "Porcupine." Afte-r a direct bomb hit, the decks w*re so littered the crew al- luded to her as "The Rock Gar- den." "It's not so bad being bombed at sea." the doughty skipper said. "You can twist and turn and wrig- gle. You watch the plane until he is committed to hU dive, and then change your course. "You feel hurt ia your dignity If you are hit at sea." Captain Nicholl told how an aerial bomb hit the gangplank when they wei-e tied up helplessly ;ii M.ili:i. Shrapuel killed one of- ficer and three crew members, wonding 50 others. "I got a splinter in a place not usually mentioned," he said. Kut repairs which were expeo*- ed to take a mouth were com- pleted iu two weeks by aa un- daunted crew. About the time the Oermaae reported the Penelope "seriously damaged." he took to the Mdl- ITfll **!$* \\tml .o/Moiiiyiirt Fu uiuck rattef fro I ichini o/ oCMna, pi ' ' i*l M eOMins. pisKpte* runw ud tri *n*t terranean where the ship and crew withstood an all-day sky at- tack before the Italians wheeled their planes oflf. dlaguated. la Gibraltar he repaired "worm out" gnus and replaced the wooden pings with ateel repair*. Except for a convoy battle, the trip across the Atlantic wxs "q.uite uneventful," Copt. Nicholl said. More than 1,000 shrapnel holes are being repaired In the hull ef the "Pepperpot."

Iron rust Is easily removed by applying a mixture of salt and lemon juice. Rub thoroughly. Q. How oan I stiffen organdie trimmings, such as collar and outf MUT A. They will hare just the right amount of stiffening if they are dipped into water in which rice has been boiled. Q. How can I mend a small hole In a screen? A. By first trimming the edges until It is roughly square. Cut a new piece of wire cloth about an inch larger each way than the hole. Pull out several wires on each side of the patch and bend so that the wires stick out at right angles. Place over the hole and push the wires through the screen, bending back through the screening until the new piece Is firmly in place. Q. How can I make the flower pots look attractive? A. Cover the pots with two or three thicknesses of paraffin pa- per, then with crepe tissue paper. The paraffin prevents moteture from penetrating to the tissue paper. Q. How can I soften dried shoe polish? A. A small quantity of turpen- tine added to dry shoe polish will soften it almost immediately.

The officers were giving the final teat to the most spectacular swimming lesson to be taught at the United States Navy's pre-flight training school at the University of Georgia that men can swim through burning oil and gasoline and escape injury. Lieut. W. F. Foster, chief swim- ming coach at the school, and > former instructor at Southern Mathodiat University, termed the test "extremely satisfactory". The swimmer propels hiinseif under the blazing oil until his lung-held oxygen supply is about exhausted. At this point he pushe* hard for the surface and as he breaks water, aimp* the flames away, takes a deep breath and sinks again. 12,000 Said Killed In Cologne Raid Reuters said in a recent dis- patch that Otto Abetz, the German "Ambassador"' in Paris, had ac- knowledged in conversations that 11,000 to 12,000 persons- were killed in the RAF-RCAF bombing of Cologne and that 180,000 per- sons had been ordered evacuated.
