desperately trying to organize an op- j

posed as to toe methods to be used.
While toe oppositionists lost their
battle in the house, they are far from
convinced that the bill cannot be
radically altered in the senate. Here,
Senator McNary will do most of his
work b^ind the scenes while Sena
tor Wheeler of Montana, will lead
toe opposition on toe floor. Informed
quarters are still predicting, how
ever, that toe bill will pass about
the middle of March—and without
any vital changes. ^
It seems apparent that there is go
ing ^ be a troublesome squabble
about toe questitm of naval convoys.
The lend-lease bill, as it appeared
from toe house committee, stated
that -the bill was not intended to
authorize toe convoying of ships, but
Democratic leaders point-blank re
fused to write in a specific ban
against their use.
Ramblings Of A
Convalescent^
Editor, The Chronicle:
An old lady was asked how she felt
and replied that her hips, sides, back
and stomach hurt and that she had
misery everywhere except her heels
and jaws. I know that she had toe
flu.
Back in toe nineties we had a close
relative of the flu known as la
grippe. I do not believe the grippe
was as savage a varmint as toe flu.
Now that all our miseries are over
and we can be thankful for conva
lescence we are also conscious of be
ing in toe midst of toe best neigh
bors in the world. Well, we are in
Clinton. Isn’t that enough?
Having time to read toe war news
and to rejoice over what is happen
ing in Albania and Africa, I am re
minded of a little incident of boy
hood. We youngsters saw no prize
fights, movies, football or baseball,
but had to get our diversion hunting
and fishing. On one occasion we did
get a “Jbe Louis” show that has lost
none of its flavor with toe passing of
toe yealx. It was this:
Our neighbor, Jim Houston, one
mile to our north, had a big bull, a
terrible looking beast. Reminds me
of Mussolini. About a mile south.
