Soldier's Pet Poisoned Threats Loom Over Rude the Spitz
John J. Lowery Jr, with the Army in New Guinea, writes home about his dog Rude and fears loneliness. A Scottie in the same house died from strychnine poisoning two weeks earlier, prompting Humane Society investigator Chester Irving to search for the poisoner. Rude fell ill Saturday night but recovered after Irving intervened.

Lend Lease Probe Demanded by Senator Ellender
Senator Ellender urges an immediate Senate inquiry into lend-lease operations citing a Stettinius letter. He says U S aid to Russia has mainly covered repair, supply, and servicing of American vessels in Soviet ports and calls for concessions in oil, tin, iron ore, rubber and bases in exchange for continued aid. The probe targets more than 13.79 billion dollars in lend-lease expenditures and seeks transparency.
