WASHINGTON - Washington
reporters have waited several
weeks now for a chance to attend
one of the famous La Guardia
press conferences. Up to this time
the fiery ex-Mayor of New York
has been too busy talking turkey
-- or rather, wheat --- with the
administration to hold one. The
press was finally rewarded for
their wait, however, by a brisk
question and answer session with
the determined new Director Gen-
eral of UNRRA.
The conference was a treat.
there's no doubt about that, for,
as the Mayor said, "I am used to
telling the truth." And he did tell
the truth, in language that wa.:
sometimes undiplomatic, a fact
that he freely and almost glee-
fully acknowledged. There is more
to the man than showmanship,
however. He seems so well aware
of the enormous problem facing
him as UNRRA administrator and
is so determined to resolve that
problem that his confidence is
contagious. By his spirit he may
be able to take up the slack in
an organization that reportedly
had gone loose at the seams. The
wires will have to be considerably
tauter than they were to carry
the kind of electric charges that
LaGuardia is capable of putting
across the circuit.
The kind of efficiency that made
F. H. LaGuardia the able admin-
istrator of millions of restless and
critical New Yorkers showed up
with his first remark to the Wash-
ington press as they crowded his
office in the UNRRA building. A
reporter cast a querulous look
about LaGuardia's office. The rows
of folding chairs usually set up
for a press conference were not
there. "Oh, stand up," said the
Mayor grinning, "it'll take less
time."

UNRRA's Director General led
off the press conference by lauding
the governments of Argentina and
Canada for their help in solving
the food crisis. Then he painted
the world food picture as he saw
it. It was dark. The Argentinian

flickering lights amid the general
gloom.
Despite the gloom, however, La
Guardia appears dauntless and
seems to approach the individual
problems facing him with a di-
rectness that would seem almost
naive if it weren't charged with
such sincere conviction that the
job can, and must, he done. Re-
marking that he was "fed up with
statistical gibberish" and that he
wasn't worried about money be-
cause "damn it, people can't cat
money," he outlined his needs --
3,350,000 tons of wheat, 300,000
immediately and 700,000 a month
after May. He wants coke for
Yugoslavia and 500,000 tons of soft
coal a month, 450,000 of which
would go to Italy, for shipping
and transportation on the contin-
ent. Later on, he said, he would
get around to talking about fats,
oils, and fertilizers.
He said he supposed his de-
mands for these commodities
would become "irritating and an-
noying, and I hate to do that, but
I suppose I will have to keep at
it."
His demands must have been
somewhat "irritating and annoy-
ing" to Agriculture Secretary Clin-
ton Anderson who had earlier
that same day told a news con-
ference that UNRRA could not
expect to get its 700,000 tons of
wheat a month because "you just
can't dish it out like that." His
demands for wheat may become a
little "irritating and annoying" to
the distillers who, LaGuardia
pointed out, must have seen the
impending shortage of grain so
that in February it stood at some
11,000,000 gallons above the figures
for February of last year.
LaGuardia and his insistent de-
mands for food and rehabilitation
supplies may become "irritating
and annoying" to some and espe-
cially to those who would feel
that their supplies of such com-
modities could be mote profitably
distributed to the already overfed

FOR TB FIGHT
During the last 13 years, the
Ladies' Aid Society of Attica, Ind.,
has helped support the National
Jewish Hospital at Denver. This
year the Society wanted to give
an appreciably larger stun because
the Hospital is now engaged i n
rasing funds for an extensive ex-
pansion program to provide i n .
creased facilities for the needy tn.

A raffle of a pair of nylon Ims ,
within a fortnight, brought

Only one woman in Attica i.

TB victims will benefit from the
proceeds.
