Sizoo, who is fighting to save his fine old Church of St. Nicholas from the skyscraper builders, I am happy to report that the church still stands, has larger attendance than ever, and that those who would destroy it have been forced by public opinion to withdraw their bid. The congregation now wants to buy the church, to make sure that no Board of Trustees can ever surrender it to the destroyers, but the board is not favorable to this action. Mrs. Treman says one of her ancestors helped to fight against destruction of the old John Street Methodist Church, which stands amid skyscrapers in Lower New York, and may stand for ages to come.

We need more churches, not fewer. There is plenty of room, off sacred ground, for skyscrapers. i ft. EXPLANATION OF CARTOON ALL ITEMS SELF-EXPLANATORY (Copyright. 194G, King Features Syndicate, Inc.) Bv Henry McLemore in good standing, I plan to use my WASHINGTON, D.

Now. that the crossed canoe paddles and pennants over my bed are all that are left to remind me of my youth, I think I have found the solution.

GENEROUS TO PHILIPPINES Back in Manila after a flying visit to the United States, where he created a distinctly favorable impression, President Manuel A. Roxas was subjected to a drum-fire of quest ioning by Filipino editors and reporters none too friendly to what they conceived to be the attitude of the United States. He had returned home thoroughly convinced that with the advent of Philippine independence1 on July 4 Uncle Sam had no thought of turning his shoulder upon, much less exploiting, the islands that had been his wards for 48 years.

Nevertheless, at a meeting of the labor executives after the act was passed, Whitney paid glowing tribute to the men who had done the drafting. It was generally expected that the act would ensure peace in railroad labor relations, and the dawn of a new day was widely heralded. Shortly thereafter, however, copies of a letter denouncing the new act were widely circulated among railroad men. The letter was reported to have been written by Whitney.

It charged the committee which had represented the brotherhoods in drafting the law with having sold railway labor down the liver. KMLB 1230 I have started planning my leisure time.

Letters from readers, addressed to me at home, usually get most prompt attention, because I open them as I write the next column. So. if convenient, address your letters to me at, 363 Glenbrook Avenue, Yonkers, N. Y. This will relieve the syndicate office of much work.

However, if you just omit the street address, the mailman finds the place easily enough. Yonkers, for those who have no atlas at hand, is not a corporate part of New York City, but is a continuation of it, north of the boundary line. Although New York is having to plan more schools to care for the war and post-war babies when they are ready for kindergarten, the average family is not growing larger. Extra babies come from one-baby and two- baby families, since marriages went up like mercury in the Sahara. Studies by Population Reference Bureau show that first births and second births are responsible for all the increase, third births have remained at old level, and fourth births have declined over 14 per cent.

Figures analyzed are for the period 1933-1940, during all of which time the WPA doles and gold were making for more marriages. During 1941, to '43, a spurt in population increase, unprecedented in history, there was an increase, though small, even in large families. This is looked upon as temporary.
