DETROITERS WHO partici-
pated in the Bnai Brith sectional
bowling tournament in Toledo last
week amply proved why the Mo-
tor City has few peers in the
sport of pin-toppling.
Edward Swartz, Pisgah Lodge
representative, rolled a sensation-
al 680 series to
capture the sin-
gles title. In
third place was
J. Fauden, al-
so of Detroit,
whose 666 was
just one point
behind the 667
connec ted by
runner-up Clark
Kovachs of
Beckman
Cleveland.
Pisgah came through with a
2,937 total for third-place honors
in team bowling. Wabash-Lag-
range Steel Co. of Toledo Lodge
No. 183 took first prize with 3183
and Shulan's Jewelers of Akron
were second with 2,096.
Top man in all events was IL
Littman of Dayton, 0., with 1,285.

English General Who Was Accused
of Anti-Semitism Recants on Jews

LONDON (WNS)—The admission of 250,000 displaced
persons into Britain, particularly Jews, was urged by Lt.
Gen. Sir Frederick Morgan, former chief of UNRRA in
Europe.
Sir Frederick, who was subjected to much criticism
after asserting that the exodus of Jews from Europe had

been "organized" by Jewish or-
ganizations and that Jews fleeing
from Poland were "rosy-checked"
with "pockets-full of money," said
the 250,000 displaced persons
should be admitted an humani-
tarian and economic grounds. He
said he was thinking particularly
of Jews.
"It is inconceivable," he de-
clared, "that they should be ex-
pected to stay on the scene of
their decimation among the peo-
ple who have butchered their
nearest and dearest."

alcNarney Calls Zion
Only Refugee Haven

FRANKFURT (JTA)—Only re-
settlement in Palestine can solve
the problem of the 150,000 Jews
in Germany and Austria, Gen.
Joseph T. McNarney, former com-
mander of U.S. forces in the Eu-
ropean Theater told Herbert Hoo-
ver.
The general said that he in-
formed Hoover, who is in Ger-
many on an economic mission for
President Truman, that 95 per-
cent of the displaced Jews wish
to go to Palestine, and in view of
their determination, the only way
to settle the Jewish problem is to
allow them to immigrate there.

HE ADDED YEARS TO
YOUR LIVING

This man who was born one hundred years ago this week
spent most of those years working to make our lives easier.
Today, we are apt to take his achievements for granted—to
forget the wondrous changes he made in our daily lives.
The stenographer little realizes the drudgery of office routine
without typewriter or duplicating machine; the saleswoman
can hardly imagine a busy day without gummed wrapping

tape.

The list of his achievements is long and varied, but most of
us have some special obligation to Thomas A. Edison. Every

worker who finds his lunch-time sandwich fresh in its waxed-paper wrapping—every G.I. who crossed
an ocean safely with the aid of radar and submarine detection devices—can thank Mr. Edison.

But these specific contributions of the man become small and insignificant alongside his other gifts to
all mankind. For every one of us who sends a telegram or rides a street ear—evet l yone who enjoys a
radio, a phonograph or a movie—can thank Mr. Edison.

Some of these gifts have made our lives safer. Some have given us more pleasure. Most have made
our tasks easier. But all are eclipsed by his gift of electric light. For with that one invention he,
In a very real sense, added years to our living. Those years are made up of thousands of evenings
. and since Mr. Edison's invention of electric
light, evenings—with their hours of relaxation, of

Evenings have also become a time for study. Men
