Apology to New Residents To the residents of a large number of the new defense

houses-our humble apologies for not delivering the , Cooperator to your doors until this week. It wa.~ a bit of carelessness in the circulation department that carne to our attention this week as quite a shock. We probably would not have caught it even at this time if we did not continue to have new residents ask how they could sub­scribe to the paper.

The town paper is free to all residen~. It is delivered to your door each F'riday so that you may have the news about your neighbors and your community. The newH, sports, editorials and features are written by some of your neighbors who work from two to 12 hours a week without pay. Some of them like newspaper work-the rest are just suckers maybe. But we do get out a paper for yoiJt, and we have been doing it for five years without missing a week. This is an unusua1 record for a volunteer amateur paper, and will compensate perhaps for some of our oth~!r shortcomings.

Nobody owns or runs the Cooperator except the people who work on the staff. Anyone in town can work on the staff. It is, then, as nearly your paper as we can make it. If you like it--fine. If you don't -like it-please tell us what you don't like and suggest improvements. You can put your suggestions, togethet· with any news items you may pick up, in the Cooperator box behind the west doo-r of the drug store or through the mail slot in the door of our office. The office is in room 202 over the drug stor,e, and is open Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night.~ from 8' p. m. until 11 p. m. or sometimes 2 a. rn.

And if you don't get your paper-or your neighbor is missed by the carrier, let us know that too.

----Or You'll Be Walk;ng Mr. Rysticken reports that on!y 10 per cent of the

questionnaires mailed out by the town administration office in the bus survey have been returned. . As the hearing comes in July it is urgently requested that an resident..; turn in their questionnaires at once so that the necessal'y information may be gathered for presentation to the court. For those who may have misplaced or lost the origin~d questionnaire sent through the mail, copies may be obtainNl at the administration office.

Mr. Rysticken believes that there are certainly "mor·e than 10 per cent of the people of this town who ar.·e interested in obtaining and keeping good transportation facilities. If we want to win our ca~e we need the infor­mation asked for in the questionnaire. Tell the p~ople to send them in pronto".

Transportation is still Greenbelt's No. 1 problem. NeE!d we say more?

Scrap for the ]aps We heard an interesting Qtory recently. No one men­

tioned the originator's name or we w..>uld gladly give him credit for it. However, let me tell it as I heard it:

"Mr. and Mrs. Jones were ordinary folks, lh·ed an ordinary life, and their pride and joy was their only son, Thomas. During his childhood, little Tommy got into all sorts of trouble and narrowly escaped death three times because of a bed spring. The first time it happened, Tommy, who had been playing on his bed, jumped just a little too hard. The spring gave way and the boy's wrist became entangled in the coils. One coil broke and '?ut into Tommy's hand and the blood ran freely. The doctor who attended him said he was lucky he had not bled to death before treatm~nt WRS offered.

· "Mr. and Mrs. Jones decide:! to do away with the bed spring and had it placed in a secluded spot in their bar:n. But, as children play, so did Tommy, and one day while swinging over the hayrack the rope broke and he landed heJtd first on the rusty sharp cails of the forgotten 8pring­bed. Again the doctor informed the parents that th€'y wPre lucky to have their son returned to them alive.

"The Jones' decided that ihe metal bed spring must he

Free Speech and Military Secrets This is war, and our right of free speech nE;eds to be

modified indiYidua1ly by each and every one of u~ where information of aid and comfort to the enemy is eoncerned. \Ve have had many attractive posters warning us to keep our mouths closed about military information such as troop movements, ship sailings, production figures, and govern­ment plans. We have been warned often enough by now to make further admonitions unnecessary-but we still talk too much.

Recently we had a former staff member, an employee of a Yital war agency in 'Washington, tell us quite casually (although quite confidentially, of course) the time and· place uf =--ailing of a tl·oopship. This is not exceptional. On the street cars, in automobiles, at restaurant tabl_es, enough war information is handed out free to any eavesdropper to make any real spy give up his professional ra.ting and go back to amateur work.

Most of the talk here comes from the little people in the GcYernment service-the CAF-2 and 3 clerks and sten­ograph::r::-~ who are ju:-;t elose enou~h to the waJ~ effort to boast ,an importance to their friends that they do not have. Any per=--on really on the inside kuows the value of con­tidential information availabb, and will keep his knowledge to himself. Any person eager to tell all he knows of what our real los=--es are, or what is really being planned, imme­diately shows he knows \'ery little. He is one of the little fellows. eager to show off the crumbs of infomtation he has picked up. Some of tho~e crumbs may cost the lives of hia friends and neighbors.

Don't be a show-off. You can make a better impression of Y'Jllr im11ortance to the war effort by keeping your infor­mation to yourself. Loose talk is <'abotage.

dorH• a\\ a\" with and :\II· .. Jones buried it in their back yard. ~ow. at la;-;t, there would be no danger of Tommy's being hu1·t again by that bedspring. But, unfortunately, Tommy was an actiu:> soul. and while digging in his back yard one da~· he scratched his hand on part of the coiled spring. Blood poi;-;oning set in and once again he fought for his life.

"Tommy',; parents dug up the spring and sold it to a jurrk dealer who exported scrap metal. The bo~r grew up and tinishPd "-'Chool. \Vhen war broke out he enlisted, and, at present. Tommy is on active duty at the front. Feeling unca=--y about the bedspring which seemed to foreshadow Tommy'R !if£' as a boy, his mother went to see the junk dealer one day not long ago. The exporter informed her that although he no longer dealt with enemy countries, the bah·h ,f metal (including the bedspring) had. been sent to .Japan.

")lr,.: . .Jone~ left thP ~tore in a daze wondering whether rwr ill-fated Tommy would some day fall wounded or be killed hy munition~ manufactured in Japan from the bed­;-;pring whil'h on three other occasions almost took Tommy's life away,"

:\lany of our relatin•R and friends will be killed by exported American scrap in this war. 'Ve can do nothing about that now. 'Ve can. however, make the most careful :-:eareh of our hou~eholds for any remaining scrap for our own Government. Any junk dealer will pay you. for scrap metal. rubber, and rag8.

title. of the sermon on which Rev.

The old-fashioned prayer meet­ing will be held Wednesday at .s p.m. in the music room. Th1s meeting is being led by a layman and all are invited.

The following are the young people who will unite with the church this Sunday:

Shamrocks Trial ByaHsviUe ror Bolochwost

Magruder Park, Hyattsville, June 14--Vincent Holochwost's swan song struck a triumph.ant note in today's pme. The depl~rt­ing mnnager pitched brilliant ball, in applying the whitewash to Hy­attsville's Police Boys Club, while his Shamrocks scoren 10 big runs.

Holly Honored The Greenbelt band made a

surprise visit to Magruder Park to give the bi~ left-bander a rousing send-off. Just before the game, while the band played, Holly was presented with a fountain pen from the Prince Georges County League. On the bench, during the game, his team mates gathered around him and gave him a wrist watch as a token of their esteem.

For four innings it was a score­less duel between Holly and Bill Bowers. In the fifth frame the Shamrocks, benefitting by four free passes, three errors, and two hits, staged a seven run .spree.

Andru•, Da•i• Slu.-The Big Green added three more

runs in the eighth on some robust hitting by Julie Andrus and Wayne Davis. This pair took all hitting hono:r-:~ for the day; Andrus getting a single and double, while Davis collected three singles and a double. It was the second time this season for Davis to bang out four hits in a single game.

McDonald Alert Holochwost, who had struck

out six, walked three, and had l)er­mitted but five bits, weakened i.'l the ninth canto and gave up three more hi~ and a run. T'u! run, however, was nullified when Collins failed to touch third base on his way home, and the alert Micky McDonald called his hand to the umpire, thereby ''keeping all Holly's goose eggs in one baaket."
