American woodworking Industries are turning to a wood from the vast forests of the Belgian Congo known as "Korlna" because they are unable to obtain high-qualit- y timber at home. One of the countries largest tim-ber users already has begun large-sca- le Importations of the wood that! stacks up with American oak. The Industry Is Importing about 6,500,-0- 00 feet of Korlna a month. The Inability to obtain high-quali- ty timber In the United States is blamed on two things lack of a sound conservation scheme and rap-I- d growth of the woodworking In-dustries. KAi jQiy PEARSON Dandelions for Dinner QTUBBY, vocal Congressman Ches-- " ter Gross of Pennsylvania joined the symphony of Truman accusers the other day, denouncing as "double- -talk" the President's attacks on congress for inaction on farm legis- lation and the high cost of living. To prove his point, Gross quoted a letter from a Lakeland, Fla., house-wife who had received a depart- ment of agriculture cookbook with 150 recipes for plentiful, inexpensive foods. "I have been a housekeeper for 52 years," she wrote Gross, "but we just cannot eat grass along with soybeans and all the stuff the cook-book says is so grand and nourish-ing. Sure, the department of agri-culture is a crazy bunch." "I agree that she is exactly right," said Gross. "If that is all that the New Deal has to offer af-ter 16 years of planning, Is it any. wonder that there is such a wave of righteous indignation rising all over the land?" What the Pennsylvania Republican forgot, however, was that recently he commented as follows on the agriculture department's campaign for greater consumption of plentiful foods: "This time of year the body craves greens. This is the time to buy asparagus, no matter what the food experts tell us. But up in York we don't have to buy asparagus until the price is right. We go out into the fields and get dandelions, mus-tard greens and poke. These are weeds, the experts might say, but we know they are good eating. There's nothing better for a person in the spring than a nice mess of dandelions." G. I. Loan Frauds FAILURE OF SOME U. S. dis-trict attorneys to prosecute cases of fraud against veterans finally has brought some abrupt action from the justice department Two cases are involved, both in Temple, Tex., and both affecting "prominent citizens" Gordon Duncan of Duncan Homes, and R. M. Newton, secretary of the First Federal Savings and Loan as-sociation. Veterans' administration offi-cials have reported to the justice department that veterans in Tem-ple testified they were contacted by a man named Wilson M. Press-le- y who suggested that he knew how to make some easy money. They then were invited to get in touch with Gordon Duncan of the Duncan Home real estate office who in turn offered them $200 to $250 to sign the proper papers for a G. I. loan on a home that Dun-can was building. Veterans' administration reported to the justice department thai through some legalistic sleight-of-han- d the title of the house was juggled around so that the veteran got a fee and Duncan got the home. In most cases veterans didn't even see the homes for which they re-quested G. L loans. These loans were financed through R. M. Newton who, according to the Veterans' administration's report, finagled government guarantees on the basis of false appraisals. E. C. Berry, Veterans' administra-tion appraiser, stated that he had "completely reviewed the property described in this report inside and out." But in each case, Veterans' administration officials claim, Berry had signed the reports without even seeing the property. Believe it or not, but Berry had been in Florida when 17 of the 36 appraisals were reported to have been made. The justice department now has agreed with Veterans' administration about cleaning these fraud cases up. Gag Rules in Congress THE 80TH SESSION of congress won't go down in history for de-votion to the common man, but it did set a new high for gagging free and fair debate. Most people have the idea that congress is a deliberative body which carefully debates the laws of the nation before passing them. This is largely true in the senate. But in the house, the Republican leadership has been imposing a ser-ies of gag rules. A gag rule is an order by the rules committee that a bill cannot be changed or amended on the floor of congress. It means that a handful of men in committee draft the bill, after which 400 other representatives take the bill as Is. They can only vote yes or no. Some of the most important pieces of legislation passed by congress at the 80th session were put through under a gag rule, including every major bill reported out by the ways and means commit-tee. Czar Knutson, chairman of this committee, insisted on imposing a gag rule on his Wall street-inspire- d tax "reduction bill," also on his reciprocal trade extension bill. Oth-er congressmen, not members of his committee, had no chance to amend the--- e bills. They had to vote for or against them as drafted by Knutson small on the ways nd and a group means committee. tT IS only fitting that the heavy-wei-ght championship of the world was decided between two Negroes, since most of the better fighters in the last few years have belonged to the Negro race. I might mention Joe Louis, Joe Walcott, Ray Robin-son, Ike Williams, Ezzard Charles, Beau Jack and a few others. The only two white entries I can think of now who' belong around the top are Tony Zale and Gus Lesnevich. "Why is this?" I asked a n trainer. "Here's the trouble," he said. "Most of the white fighters are lazy or yellow. They won't train and they can't take it." This is a minor detail that the white section might consider. Re-member this: "They won't train and they can't take it." Good white fighters have become about as scarce as the extinct dodo. Zale and Lesnevich are exceptions. So is Willie Pep. Outside of Zale, Pep and Lesne-vich, most of the white fighters that I know are crude, lazy and in-competent. They dislike the train-ing routine or, like Rocky Grazi-an- o, they won't learn their trade how to box. "A right hand will do it," was Rocky's answer. Only it didn't. Zale is a professional. Graziano isn't. He never will be, except on the financial side. Graziano will never be the pro that Zale Is. "Strictly a pro," Francis Albertantl says of Zale. "Graziano? Maybe a semipro. But never a pro." Citation's Goals Unless something of a harsh phy-sical nature happens to Calumet's Citation, he is almost certain to reach two coveted goals 1. To finish the high-mone- y win-ner of all time above one million dollars in total purses. 2. To be ranked as the top horse of all time rated definitely above Man o' War. There is little doubt of his pass-ing the one million dollar mark un-less he breaks a leg or is badly in-jured. The Calumet star already has slipped by the $544,000 mark, and he is just warming up with such stakes as the Arlington Classic in Chicago and the $100,000 Interna-tional Gold Cup race, at Belmont on his re is more than $500,000 in big stake purses left on the '48 schedule and Citation is still a young three-year-ol- d. There will be much baying and braying among many members of the old guard in placing any horse above Man o' War. But don't for-get two things that- Man o' War ceased firing as a three-year-o-and that Man o' War never won a handicap race. He never ran against older horses except Sir Barton who, at the time, was bad-ly crippled. Man o' War was a great race horse. But the big test comes in the handi-cap division where you might give away weight, where you must carry from 130 to 140 pounds to prove your place. There is no reason to believe Man o' War couldn't have carried this weight Citation already has run against older horses and beaten them. Two of these were Armed and Buzfuz in the Seminole handicap. Citation can finish his three-year-o-career on even terms with Man o' War, getting none the best of things. But if he goes on from there into the handicap division to meet older horses, he is almost sure to fmish as the greatest race horse this country ever has known. It is always just as well to wait until a competitor has at least reached the stretch of his career be-fore he is finally judged and placed. Twenty-Gam- e Pitchers How many pitchers, on the winning side, will there be this season? The crop will be extremely thin. When the 1948 season opened, the leading probabilities included Black-wel- l, Newhauser, Feller, Lemon, Reynolds, Dobson, Munger, Marchil-do- Trout, Sain, Spahn, Jansen and Branca. I could mention one or two others. How many of these will make it? Blackwell and Feller, two of the favored sons, certainly two of the best, are out of it, unless they fin-ish like a brace of Citations. Blackwell with a bad arm, has three victories out of eight starts. At this time last year Ewell, the lone pine, was on his way to 16 straight Feller has been battling to break even. It might also be noted that Feller has been driven from the field of glory seven times, at least, in less than two months. Hal Newhouser drew the roughest start of the bunch, losing four of his first five games. But the scrappy and skillful Tiger put on a hot ral-ly and proceeded to win seven in n row. He still has an outside chance to reach the olive crowned circle. Red Munger of the Cardinals has been one of the season's major dis-appointments. Picked as a winner, big, strong and fast, the y officer has been below pat most of the year. " i f r j V ' j - i s y ' ) 1 f' ft.
