Outdoor'Congress, combination of carnivals, circuses, concessionaires and outdoor attraction boolcers, is worried over lack of attendance at State Fairs, lack ol appropriations from various states for Fairs, ..con- fiscation of flat-cars and death of cheap labor. Showmen's Lea^e of America, composed of members ftom these two organizations, met for 'me spring dinner and dance. Carl Sedlmyer was elected presi- dent of the CSC. Army Cancels All Calif. Fairs Hollywood, March 10. - Military stress on the 'West Coast caused th^ shutdown of the Cali- fornia ' State Fair at Sacramentor and all the other fairs in the war zone, including the National Orange' Show at San Bernardino, highest £pot In the citrus fruit Industry, and the Pomona Exposition, generally con- ceded to be the world'5 greatest county fair. Governor Olson turned over the lease. on the State Fair grounds to Lieut Gen. John L. DeWltt, who de- clared the territory an Integral part of the defense program, not to be used for "amusement purposes. Other fairgrounds have cancelled their autumn shows under the regu- lations restricting large crowds in the defense zone. Rules caused financial grief to a number of carnival and other out- door Show people who had been fig- uring on two fat weelcs in Sacra-, mento and other profitable time at the various county fairs.

Wmchell-Cissy Patterson sContlnned from pace 3; ured, could probably take PM out of the red and P'Jt it on a paying basis. His colum-ji Is variously es- timated by circulation experts as be- ing good for £he sale 61 from 100,000 to 200,000 papers daily in New York.

A Posy for Lyons Columnist declared he wouldn't consider the -Post unless guaranteed that Its present Broadway para- grapher, Leonard Lyons, would not be removed-. Winchell recalled that he invented 'The Lyons Den' slug which heads the column and is per- sonally fond of 'the kid' because he is the single such writer who does not try to ape WincheU, He has had numerous discussions over- the years with Capt. Joseph Medill Patterson, publisher of the •New-York News, Winchell said, and was very interested in going with that' paper' ^fter: Hearst teletyped editors: Watch Winchell/ he's get- ting dangerous and careless.' How- ever, Capt Patterson's reported kill- ing of ah Ed Sullivan column a few months ago lambasting the isola- tionist Clark Senate investigation into anti-'Na^l films, Winchell said, tipped him off -that the News was not the place for him. Hell deflhit^ refuse to ren^w with King features when his con- tract expires next Nov. 14, he' said, if the Washington Times-Herald Is stlU on the client list for the column at that time. If that's the only way for him to get rid of the T-H, he'll take it, he asserted.- T-H pact with- KFS runs until 1045 and Winchell said he . sees no w^y for the syndi- cate to get'out of it although It has promised to try. He pointed out that when KFS comics were Bold to the Washington Post some years ago, when the contract with the T-H .was about to expire, Mrs. Patterson brought suit and won. Pearson and Allen'.s Gripe WincheU has been feuding with Mrs. Patterson because of orders which led to . the 'On Broadway* column beigg heavily slashed, hid- den among the classified ads, and, for ■ while, being used only three days a week. Drew Pearson and Robert S. Allen have complained of similar treatment to their 'Washing- ton Merry-Go-Round' (United .Fea- tures) and; at the expiration of its contract on Aug. 6, it 'wUl go t(>. Eu- gene Meyer's Post Winchell -would also like to be in the Post, he said. He claims Mrs. Pattersmt objects to his attacks on pro-Axis j)ersoDali- ties. Another reason for wishing to shake loose from Mrs. Patterson, Winchell said, is an alleged personal remark she jnade about him. She also demanded that "you stop trying to mold public opinion, with your <blankety blank) showmanship. And stop looking for Nazis under the bed.' 'And finding them,' Winchell retorted; Mrs. PattersoA also Widely expressed the wish, he said, that he be sent to active Naval du^ oA a destroyer which wotdd then be sunk. Following criticism In Congress of his part-time duty without pay as a lieutenant-commander In Navy pub- lic relations, Winchell went to Washington last week to renew his oiler to accept active duty. He said he was told by bis admiral: ' 'Go on home cmd continue to do what yoU' have been doing for -the time being.' Aside from his column, WincheU had been working night and day for weelcs on last nlgbfs show at Madi- son Square. Garden for the Nwy Relief Fund. Fund, through hit efforts, will receive more than $135,-. 000 from the show and contributions. In Ills battie with Mrs. Patterson, WincheU atteitipted to take a paid ad in the tab Wafhingon News last week 'to state his siile. Paper' ac- cepted it and then refused to print it; however. It read: 'Attention Mr. and Mrs. Washing- ton, D. C. A certain Washington newspaper, whose Initials are the Washington T-H, omits considerable material from the coltnnn I write for King Features Syndicate. The omis- sions are usuaUy about certain so- called Americans, pro-Nazis and pro-Japs.
