SAYSSTRIKES COST COUNTRY

F IYE JLU O N SWeir, & ed Man, Talks 0

**CoHective CoHiperatioD’ Other Speeches To Man- nfactnrers Kept Secret

New York, Dec. 9 — (AP ) __Strikes cost this country around live bllHon dollars, or between 8100 to 8176 per family, to 1937 "the worst u d most costly period of labor.turmoil to our history," Ernest T. Weir, chairtnah of National Steel Corp., told American bustoeas lead- era today. Speaking before the an­nual cenventlen of the National As­sociation ef Maaofacturers he de­clared capital and labor "not only must get akxig, but can get along together," and asserted toe govern­ment attitude "to the present situa­tion” was "one of the biggest stumb­ling biseka to a rational get-to­gether.”

Weir, with Dr. Leo Wolman, 061- umbia University labor authority, and Ctoarles W. Fahy, general coun­sel of the National Labor Retstlona I'oard, was one of the principal speakers at the association’s flnal sessions of Its three day convention Today was designated to the pro­gram as "Labor day" and devoted to problems of the relationships be­tween management and workers.

Addresses Kept Secret So delicate aad important were

the problems discussed, to the opin­ion of ths conferees, that announce- t.-'.ent wae made that too meeting would be closed and no repoits would be made of tbe addresses of some of the speakers.

Asserting that "a critical busi­ness recession has set to," Weir p>aded for cooperation between labor and caplUI. "What wo need now,” be aaid, "are leaders wh ■ think not to terras of labor alone, ot farmers alone, of oonrumera alone or of sectionalism.

“America cries for men who give their allegiance to tbe people as a whole and who, when eervtog ana groun, refrato from a partiaaasbip wlitch la harmful to otoar groups."

Urges Labor Act Repeal Amendment of the fationa' Labor

Relations Act was one of the means by which cooperation could be se­cured. Weir declared.

"If corporatlona," he said, "are to be expected to deal with labor unions, then the unions should be required to risks themselves as res- onsiUe as. the corporations."They should be prohibited from

contributing to political eampalgns as are corpo-atlons. It should be Illegal for them to call a strike vrithout flrst taking vote of em- ployes in the plant involved. Strike viclence should be outlawed.

"The Interpretation of the law should not be left to administrative agencies; It should be included in Lie regular business of our courts.

"Frank's been good to me." be told the doctors. "Not many young fellows would bother to cheer up an old fellow like me.

"My left eye Isn’t any good to me and I haven’t so very long to go. It won’t make any difference srbether 1 have one eye or two.

*Tf you figure one of my eyes can help Frank to see. 1 want you to take It and give it to him as present"

So they wheeled toe two men into the operating room yesterday where doctors skilfully removed toe per­fectly good cornea at Amoe’ eye and pot it In Chabina’a left eye.

The operation bar been perform­ed successfully several time before elsewhere, doctors said. They arere hopeful tat said they would not itoow for at least eight days whether the operation would enahie Chablna to aas.

OPEN FORUMROGERS OFFERS HIS PROOF

The Eklltor,The Manchester Herald,Manchester, Conn.

Probably due to my deplorable in- atutty to clearly express myself In,' writing, "Herald Reader" evldentlj$'

still does not have the remotest conception of my objectives govem- irentally In Manchester. Therefore, "Herald Reader", I herewith offer to Instruct you In the matter i l economics at the very nominal charge of 850.00 an hour. Possibly, "ricrald Read,,r" will be Interested In the rather relative article printed In tbe Herald on October 11, 1838:

■SPIESS SELECTEDBY 4 TO S VOTE

"Police Board Appointment Only Stumbling Block In Organlutlon.

'Selectman Mathias Sptesa was electsd police commissioner by a four to three vote, In which Select­men Joseph Q. Peru, Leland T. Wood, Herold M. Reed and Mr. Spless voted for him, according to Selectman David Chambers.

"The selection of Mr. Spless as police commissioner, as fllllng the office has in tbe past, was the chief stumbling block during preorganisa­tion meetings of the uew board and

developed a more \iolent reac-. tion than all the other appointments together.

"Several candidates were In the Held for the commissloncrship. Tues­day morning, a few hours before tbe appointment was made, Michael J. NTacDonnell believed >e would re­ceive live votes and the appoint­ment, and other police commission­ers and persona close to them were sure John Hackett would ba reap­pointed while others were equally certain that Dr. D. C. Y. Moore would get tbe call.

"Soon alter his nomination tor selectman on the Republican ticket. Mr. Spless started an agitation foi placing one of the selectmen on tbe police board. During one of the pre­liminary conferences. It was decided to do that by a four to three vote

"Two of the seven selectmen have since stated that the ihonce for the commlsslonershlp progressed around the table from Chairman Sherwood O. Bowers to Mr. Spless on his left, with Selectmen Pero, David CHiam- bers, James H. Johnston, Mr. Reed, and Mr. Wood refusing the nomina­tion.

"With theli plan of action cut and dried In preliminary con'crences. the selectmen Tuesday made all appolnt- r.ents unanimously, with Mr. Joh.i- aton making the motions, Mr. Pero seconding them and two or three ot the seven members mumbling as­sent.

"Mr. Spless's appointment waa the only surprise.”

SUGGEST NEW SITE FOR DAR FOUNTAIN

Edoration Board* Not Faror* able To School Spot; Hart- ford Road Ayailabk.

Attempts to dtsposs of a drinldiig fountain for borsss In thla.msebaa- Ized day and age seem to have ths local D. A. R. up tbs well known tree as they look around for a suit­able substitute site toy their war memorial, now Aocsted at tha cen­ter but sopn to be moved to make way for a rotary traffic circle.

The DA.R. i.’umed to tbs Board ot Selectmen for suggestions and the latter palmed the matter off 00 the Board of Education. Last nlgbt > tbe Board agreed that no sits was avallablsvon school property a t Edu­cational square or Manchester Green, and Is so notifying the Se­lectmen. Which seems to leave the matter at an impasse.

However, the moat logical sits for the fountain would seem to ba at the Intersection of Main street, Hartford Road and South Main street. A watering trough for horses has stood on the south Side of the intersection for many years but It's far from being as attractive as the DAR’s marble memorial and the latter would brighten up the spot considerably. Then too, most of the few horses still left In these parts come from outlying dtstriots along tbe highways making the quadruple Intersection and It woulv therefore see greater use than It does now.

THURSDAY, DECEUBER 9

DU FONTS PROMISESA careful reading of the speech

delivered by Lammot du Pont at a Buumfaeturera congress in New York, heralded as proclaiming In- ihutry's readineas to employ 3,000,- 000 more workers at an investment o f $39,000,000,000, faiU to disclose that the apparent pledge la aa im­portant as It aounds.

Too many conditions are Imposed.In effect what Ur. du Pont re­

quires la that there shall be such a stabilization of taxation, of wages and working conditions aa no gov-

' snunent abort of a Fascist dictator­ship could command, and such s esrtalnty of profit as neither a Mus- aoUnl nor a Hitler could guarantee in good faith. . Industry, as we coo- atnie the Du Pont promise, would be prepared to do all these gran­diose things if It were doubly as­sured that everything would work out according to plan and that no risk to Its capital wcrs Involved.

Unhappily, there has never been a Urns when such assurances could be given to snybody by anybody, lit alone by a democratic government which may bo changed In large part every two yaare and altogether every four yaara.

There la another angle to this promlee. Industry, Mr. du Pont says, would Invest twenty-five bil­lion dollars of new capital In tbe making of the three million jobe within the next several years. It would be interesting to have him explain where thle capital la to coma from.

A ll the Induatrlea In the country,' ihcludlng the automobile, steel, chemical, textile and every other major tnduetry, put together, have no Important part of twenty-five billion dollara which could be rein­vested In new entcrpiisea or new plants on a wholeesle scale. IWen- ty-fivc billion dollars Is at least four times as much aa tbe entire country baa In actual money for tbe conduct of all Its buslnesa.

Even the extremely rich Du Pont family would find a limit to the capital It-could lnve«t In new enter­prises, because Its capital la al­ready Invested In the numerous Du Pont corporations. In General Mo­tors, and so on, and to participate in any such wholesale new Invest­ments aa I^mmot du Punt talks about It would have to convert Its present wealth Into funds available for such purpoees. And where would It find tbe cuatomen, when all the rest of tbe great tndustrlal- 1st.' found themselves In the same boat?

Of course Mr. du Pont knows all about this, much better In detail than we do. So It Is fair to pre­sume that be has a good Idea of bow the financing—almost as much financing aa the United States gov­ernment engaged in for the World War—would be managed.

It woBId have to be managed by a stupendous Inflation of bank cred- it-rbecause tbe last thing'’ In the world these big Indnstrlallsts would countenance would be a curr«nc>' Inflation. And In order to Inflate the power of tbe benks to Issue credit in such unheard-of anoounts, new iegislatiuD would be required, removing practically every restric­tion that has been placed on the banka and giving them a free hand to multiply the credit Inflation of the late 30's many times over.

So OB the whole Mr. du Font's fine-«oundlng speech appears to be mors sound than anything else.

compkte. This may or may not be true. It may turn out that the abandonment of Its capital by the Cblneae government and the flight of Chiang Kai-shek Into Klangal marks 'the end of effective resist­ance by the present reglme-and that

: Japem has actually accomplished what she set out to do.

On the other hand It Is scarcely to be forgotten that long ago. even while the Chinese seemed to be put­ting up an unbeatable defense In Shanghai, high Chinese authorities discounted the likelihood of stop­ping the Japsnese Invasion short of the capital, but .at the same time expressed the utmost confidence thfit. the eventual outcome of the war would be the total defeat of Japan. These authorities affected at that time U> regard the possible and even probable capture of Nan­king as but an Incident to the pre- llmlnar>- stages of a long war. In which China's superiority In man power and resources must inevita­bly result In wearing out'the Japa­nese armies, government and peo­ple.

So that from one point of view, at least, there la nothing about the progress of the Japanese through the relatively small area between Shanghai and Nanking to occasion surprise to outsiders, since It evi­dently could not have surprised the Chinese leaders who had talked about It, from the beginning, as at least a not remote possibility, but were not at all disturbed by Its con­templation.

There would seem to be even con­siderable likelihood that the Chi­nese were willing enough that the Japs should extend their lines to Nanking—and beyond. Certainly they have not made very great sac- rlflces to prevent the march of the invaders upon the capital. They have simply withdrawn their vast armlea. flghtlng only -rearguard se- ttons—and they have not gambled their last stake on the defense ' at Nanking but have crossed the Yangtseklang and in the country west of that great natural barrier may quite conceivably be Just be­ginning to'prepare for a real war.

It Is. very roughly, as though an army of Invaders bad landed at Bos­ton, taken that city at very great cost in men and material, and had then followed the defenders to Spiingflcld. to And an tmbridged Connecticut river, several tiroes as big as the Oonnectlciit actually la, between them and tbe native troops —with the whole great expanse of the United States yet to be oon- troUed.

In our case we would scarcely consider that we were licked, la such an event, no matter 11 the in­vaders did pretend to set up a new government lor the country on the strength of their" toehold In one small comer of It.

Perhaps the Chinese will not prove to be aa tenacious as we would be. But It la a little early yet to conclude that their magnlflcent berolam In the great battle of Shanglisl was just a flash In the pan. A little early to jump to the conclusion that the taking of Nan­king Is equivalent to the winning of the war.

That war may be going on ten years hence, or flfty—if the Japa­nese can last that long.

K'KKS AM* FASCISMSciret-ary of the Interior Harold

L. Ickea took up hl.s trunjpet. and blew a te.-rlOc blast of warning Against the perils of impending Fascism at a dinner of the Ameri­can Civil Liberties Union In New York lost night. Mr. Icke has dis­covered that there are men In the United Statea rich and powerful men. who are ytrongly If secretly In favor of a Fasdst dictatorship and who cry "Commimlsm!" at every proposal which rms counter to their social and economic Ideas.

No doubt there are just such peo­ple. There aJwayk have been. There were plenty of them here before the Revolutionary war. There was no great difference between the Tories >f the time of tbe Georges and the Fascists of Italy and Germany to­day, There were plenty of them here during th# Revolution and im­mediately after It .and there have been plenty ol them here ever since. People who have no rcn! faith In democracy, who give denux-racy Up service but who hold In contempt the intelligence and capacity for self-gm-emment of the nuisaes: who believe utterly that the gov­ernment of this or any other nation should *be administered by the rep­resentatives of property for the beneflt of property—and the status of the masses of the people main­tained by them at just such a point, on just such a plane of living, as will keep them quiet an(T'' content v.-lthout giving them any power.

But there have never been enough oftsucta people to constitute a real thrsnt to tbe iBstltutloo of democ­racy in America—sod It Is extreme­ly Imptobafaie tbat there ever will bs.

the interesting thing

about all this Is that tf Mr. Ickes ever cares to particularise concern­ing these Fascists of bis, to name names and point Identities, he will have very little trouble In finding tbe folks to pin the labeli. on If he will direct his atteutlon to tbat stronghold o f his own administra­tion's party, the Solid South.

There Is one large area of tbe Uhlted States where a party called fantastically Democratic has been supreme for more than a hundred Vears—where there has never been the smallest sbred of recognition of the rights of the people to rule and where the stark principles of class Fascism have controlled all politics, all economies and all sociology ever since It was settled.

WAS MISPLACEDThe resignation of William E.

Dodd, United States Ambassador to Germany, la the logical requel to Professor Dodd's not Infrequent and quite outspoken criticisms of the Nazi regime.

Professor Dodd had no buslnesa to be an ambaseador to Germany or any other country. He has views and he has to express them. No­body can be a diplomat who has views—and expresses them To be a diplomat you may hold the view that black Is black but If clrcum- stnheea make It expedient—or make it .ippe.ar expedient to the State Department—to aay that black la white, then you must aay that black i.s white and prepare to be quite shocked at the Idea that blark may be black.

In other words, Profesaor Dodd waa altogether misplaced as an am­bassador because be is not a pussy- footer and a dispenser of elastic truth.

Perhaps the one thing that Am­bassador Dodd did which was com­pletely unforgivable waa to openly declare, last Hay, that an unnamed American "billionaire" was pre­pared to flnance a Fascist dictator­ship In this country.

Now that he Is through wdth bis diplomatic career, possibly Profes­sor Dodd may feei free to go Into this business In more detail. Maybe he wrin write a book. I f he docs. It ought to sell.

RUSSET APPLESThe New York Herald Tribune

evidently carried an editorial the other day. which wc missed, cap­tioned, "Who Has a Russet?" Be­cause since then the m b has re­ceived a number of letters, which It has printed, suggested by the editorial and presenting the reflec­tions of various persons on the nis- •set apple; but none of them app;ir- cntly, Is from a person prepared to answer "Here!" to the newspaper's question.

This U the flrst time that we have realized that the russet apple la perhaps no more. To be sure, it must ba fifteen or twenty years since wc ran across, dowi. In the shore country, an old russet apple trM that bora plenty of tbs brown fruit. But such ruaseta! They were no bigger than crabappics— well, scarcely any bigger, anyhow. They did. however, taste like russets. And no apple, fresh from the tree, ever tasted worse than a russet. But neither did any apple, kept all win­ter. until the snwioth skin had be­come wrinkled, ever taste any bet ter. The point about russets was that -they were just getting good about the time the very last of the ery best keeping other winter ap­

ples had ylelde<l to the processes of time and decay.

Thera used to be plenty of russet apples In Connecticut. Perhap.s there Is somebody around here who can ehotit, "Tee; I liave!" to the Herald-Trlb's query.

SANTA ASfceD, ' w h a t CO *^00 ? *THE STORY SO PAR: While

Santa's Toyland Is In an nproar becanse the white fox has stolen Hdga, a doll, for his Christmas gift, she arrives at his den on the top of a moimtaln.

CHAPTER 10

Very, Very Sad

Santa called a meeting in the toyshop the minute he betlrd that Helga had been taken off by the white fox. The tin soldier wakened him to tell him.

Santa bounded out of bed with hta peaked nightcap hanging over one eye, pulled on his big red trousers and dashed out Into the shop to And tbe tin soldiers waking up all the dolls and fairies.

"Whst's happened?" demanded Santa, and Mrs. Santa, running after him, said, "I 'll bet it's that fox."

"So It la," sold the .soldier cap­tain. "He's stolen Helga."

"Oh, my, my," said Santa luid ne sunk Into his favorite cb.ilr.

"Poor doll," said Mrs. Santa. "What are you going to do. Santa?"

"That's just It." said Santa. “1 can't leave the toyshop or we won t have our Christmas presenti ready on lime, and none ol the toys are big enough to battle with the fox. But we must get Helgr back."

There was a terrific fuss and pother among all tbe other toys, rushing to get- dressed ano "shusn- Ing" each other so they could hear what Santa aald.

The SignalSuddenly Santa stepped outside

the toy.shop and shtmk his red cap with the bells. That's h's signal when he’s In tioublc, and all the

fairy people of the North Pole come hurrying.

The moon came rushing across the sky with the NorthX^ind be­hind, carrying the North '^tar to one big, misty arm. A aedate>.grecnsgree:fairy dropped from a Chilsvnas tree and a little glistening ISdy jumped out of the snow. These were the Woods Fairy and the Snow Fairy.

Santa told them what had hap­pened, and asked, "What do you suggest?"

Then the moon said; "Santa, I can’t help. You know bow fast the fox runs and how be just tears right through my moonbeams." The moon looked sad.

Then the North Wind spoke: "Santa I can't help either. You know how he laughs at me. and rushes right through my puffs. The North Wind looked very sad.

*I Can't Help EltheriThen the North Star spoke:

"Santa 1 can't help—much. He just howls at me. But 1 can ride around tbe sky and find him. and hang over him so you'll know where he la. " The North Star looked very sad.

Then the Woods Fairy spoke. ‘,'Santa, I can't help You know how the white fox scrapes the bark right off my trees. They're afraid of him. We could make a trap with oifir branches, though," The Woods fairy looked aad.

Then the Snow Fairy Spoke: "Santa, I can't help. You Know bow worm the fox's fur Is. and how last ho runs. Try aa I might, I can’t make him cold.’ The Snow Fairy looked very sad.

But then something strange hap­pened that no one expected. I'll tell you about It tomorrow.

Tomorrow: The Sailor Doll.

Celery is one of the very best noD-starchy vegetables for cooking and salads, and there Is no disorder where it cannot be freely used if| any fibrous food Is allowable at all

During the fall and winter months when other vegetables arc scarce, celery la usually plentiful and when used abundantly will be found to be a valuable blood cleans­er and "tonic." Those who are 111 frequently have a lowered blood al­kalinity and celery heljis to correct this condition because of Its rich­ness in tbe alkaline-forming ele- menta The cellulose which it con­tains provides the colon with a non- irritating bulk and Is therefore beipr ful In preventing constipation.

The celery which we now use Is a great Improvement over tbe wild planL I t Is longer, better flavored, less stringy, and whiter than the original celery. The Greeks are said to have valued this plant, but aa It was partlaUy wUd It had too strong a flavor for general use, and was used os a garnish as we now use parsley.

The practise of bleaching celery seems to have begun in England. A nephew of John Milton describes It in these words: "Sellerie, It Is an berb which Is usually whited for an excellent winter salad."

In my estimation, the best celery Is that which has been bleached, as the bleaching removes certain voll- tlle oils which are slightly irritating to the body.

qUESTlONS AND ANSWERS

(Mineral UU)Que.stion: Mr. John V. asks:

"What is your opinion of mineral oil? Is this correctly considered laxative? Is It safe to take?"

Answer: Mineral oil Is widely used for tbe relief of constipation, acting as s lubricant; however. It Is uot considered a laxative In the ordinary meaning of that term. It Is safe and Its action Is gentle. It is usually given by mouth; however I And that In some coses oral ad­ministration will bring about an In terference with digestion due to tfle fact that the oil will form a coat­ing on the inner surface of the small Intestine, where It may Inter­fere with the absorption of food When I believe that the patient vflU beneAt from mineral oil, 1 usually advlsp that It be used In the form of an oil retention enema, the warm oil being injected and allowed to re­main overnight. In this way the full beneAt o(,Us lubricating quality is secured in the lower part of the targe Intestine, exactly where It is most desirable, and at the same time the oil is not pre.sent In the small Intestine. It Is well to re­member that tbe preparation used must vary to suit tbe Individual case; some patients will be beaeAted to a marked degree from mineral oil preparations;' others will beneAt from agar-agar or psyllium seed. It Is Impossible to choose arbitrarily an.v one preparation which wlil work equally well In all cases.

(Lobster, Crab aad Shrimp)Question;- Mra R. Q, X. writes;

"How about lobster, crab and shrimp? Are they healthful or un- healthful?"

Answer: In my opinion lobster meat I* a healthful protein which used freoh.' prepared by boiling without tbe addltloa o f cheese, and In the proper season. Lobster con- talfis between 17 per cent,and 19 per cent protein. Lobster, crab and shrimp are all wholesome. Moat people enjoy them, as they provide variety In the diet and com^ aa a welcome change. In addition, such foods g ft an excellent source of Iodine, which is a substance neces­sary for the normal functioning of the thyroid gland.

^ (E j-m Bloodshot)Question: Mr. ,W. W. wants to

know: "What causes the eyes to ap­pear bloodshot?"

Answer: Tbe bloodobot condition of your eyes Is probably due to eye- strain, resulting from reading too long with an Insufficient light lack of sleep, infection of the eyre, or from some defect of vision which should be corrected orith glass) Have the eyes examined and then take better care at them, avoiding undue eye fatigue.

Yesterday: Bob loams tbat tbir strange little brown people are the renuutnts of a loot klngdons—a peo­ple who once lived In OeOanoe Oss- tle. Tbrae peoples think Bob and MeUosa messengers of tbe Son.

CHAPTER X IXThe white visitors stayed In a

strange home that night Tbe chief­tain with his family and servants vacated hla bouse, beat In tba king­dom, and with ixmalderable pomp offered it to Bob and 'Liana. The hospitality was genuine.

"But where are the doonV" 'Llssa whispered.

There waa no opening In aight on tbe ground level—no wlndowa, doora or holea. The laddera led to a aec- ond atory ledge,’ however. It waa a rather imposing houae, two atoriea high and perhapa double the alze of any other. It waa otrongly made of stones and plastered mud.

"In the celling," Bob answered. "The pueblo Indiana atUI build tbat way occasionaUy."

"You mean— ?”"Yea, you have to climb up a lad

der to the Ant-story roof.__thendown again Inside, through an open Ing In the celling. And those other ladders lead to tbe second floor. That makes It automatically a fort­ress, see?"

"Enemies couldn’t get inside so easily, you mean? '

'That's right, are pulled up after are all In at olgbL ladders—not bad!"

"Seems mighty Inconvenient,' girl suggested.

"Sure, and doubtless unnecessary now. But very Important In the old days. The simple folk evidently cling to old customs, regardless.'’

They found tbe first floor rooms used only for storage of grains, skins, tools and other valuables. Beds and grass and woven mats were on the second story floors. In­side small rooms.

"You can stay up there," Bob said, "and I'll curl up somewhere down here In the store rooms. I'U pull in the ladder* for you.'

They didn't get to retire Imme­diately, though. They bad hardly finished exploring when they were hailed from outside. They hastened to the ledge and peered down.

There stood tbe chleftlan and two other men, evidently an official body, and before them ware four brown maidens, young girls all. The chief waa pointing and signing Bob hastened down

This new powwow, lighted by torchea lasted fully a half hour. In the end, the three dark men led their maidens away, and Bob came back up the house ladder.

"What Is It?" 'Ltssa demanded, anxiously. ‘

"It's awful!" he whispered, in strained voice. "Things have taken a much more serious turn. Those g irls-they are sacrificial maidens Llssa!"

"Sacrificial?" She looked Intent­ly at him.

"Yes! The old chief says they have chosen the moat beautiful girls in the kingdom for tbe white gods to see. You and 1 have to pick tbe one we want sacrificed to the sun!"

Uglous slgnlflcance. Bob had told her snatches of such things, she re­called.

’Llssa peered nOw over the rool rim, but the maidens and thidr es­corts bad disappeared in the dark­ness, somewhere In one of the othei lunises. Tbe village was stngularl} quiet There was no* <uiling, sing­ing, visiting or other monlfeatsUor of communal routine. She had swift mental pictures -of New York at night, by contrast

Bob reached to pat her hand, en­couragingly. "Don't let It get you," be half whispered. “We sttll have time, ^ d ss yet we are In no dan­ger ourselves. That's something. A whole -lot in fa c t"

She realized the truth of that These strange lost people might In­deed have decided to sacrifice the vistors! For a moment she almost wished they had. Tbe apprebensior of death coudin't be much worse than this nerve-wracking tenaion of death couldn’t be much worse and the impossible chain of adven­tures which had followed when she answered a harmless newapapei want-ad. She smiled to heracU then, even through her despair.

"Yes. The chieftain said so They considered It an honor to be chosen, and each one hopes we'U pick her. Their Idea, you see, U that the skcrlflced girl becomes i lesser goddess herself."

'Ltssa shuddered anew."How often does this happen 1

This human—milrder?”" I don't know. Probably once a

year. But It isn't exactly murder It’s all in tHe point o f view. Now you take— ’’ a

"No, No, N o !" M a ^ Meliaas wasn’t going to "take" snjrthlng She wasn't even going to listen to any mare scientific talk about It She was exhausted, emotionally aad physically. She could not posh ly have restrained the sobs that shook her then.

Bob aald no more. He just held her tightly aa she cried against him, looking out the while to see If her outcry had caused any sort ol alarm. He was badly abaken, him­self. He gave thought to one oi two wild plans for flight Mayba In the dead of night— ! But no, hla reasoning corrected him.

He realized they couldn't get out in secret. News of their presence had of course excited the whole vU- tage. and their slightest move would become known Instantly. Besides, this place was a gigantic trap by physiography; he would simply have to maneuver a way back up the cave.

Only their utter fatigue drove them to sleep, eventually, huddled together there on the soxnid story ledge.

"But -but—how? Sacrificed how. Bob? You mean—"

He nooded. "It means death for her, even though It's honor for us

The thought appalled them, and for a moment the two were silent. Finally Bob spoke again

He wanted us to choose tonight, but 1 stalled for lime. Told him the sun was down now. and It couliln't be done at night. But to­morrow— goodness!" a "Couldn't we refuse?"

"VVe; don't dare. Our own lives might be jeopardized. It's a dell cate situation. It's normal, too. but 1 never thought I ’d experience It. Human sacrifices were common among moat savage people. The early tribes in Mexico nearly all did It, the Mayan, Aztecs and such. They had special stone altars for It Removed the heart, and has feast­ing the while. This custijm links up with-the Asiatic countries, too."

Mary Melbssa barely listened to the rest ol his explanation, with Its scientific background. She was too horrified. She beard him, though, when he told her the chief himself has promised to officiate at the ceremonlas tomorrow.

"You mean he will—he’s the U v-? "

Bob read her thoughts. There waa great anxiety In his tone as 'he .answered.

"Yes. He will honor us in the highest form possible, by personally slaying the maiden we select. We will occupy seats of honor at the ceremony beforehand and after­ward."

Mary Melissa couldn't quite grasp it. Charged with emotional strain she shivered a Uttl* and almost groaned. This fantastic, un­real, Impoestbla

She bad studied the brown girts closely while Bob conferred with tbe chief. They were not pretty in the Caucasian sense, but they were handsome and strong. They must have been 16 or so, with muscle* de­veloped by toil in the fields. Their hair waa done la peculiar tight whorls.

How To Make Good ^As A n Opera Singer

TWO N E T SNOW PLOWS P U R d n ^ FOR TOWN

By JOHN SELBYNew York, Dec. 9— (A P I—I f you

want to make the Metropolitan opera, and nine out o f ten young professional ilngera still do, don't try to Muff.

Bluff won't work, says Wilfred Pelletier, who is perhaps the most long-suffering listener In New York. Hr. Pelletier Is a conductor at tbe Metropolitan; be also listens to all the prospective Carusos and' Far­rars.

These are some of the things you've got to have, eays Mr. Pat- Ictler, If you want to gat through the sacredjiortale—

You've got to have some real voice training, as well as know hew to garble through a few arias.

"Tbst's what half of tbe 700. to 1,000 I bear each eeason seem to lack", s a ^ Pelletier, wbo Is short, still has Us bsir, sometimes bides hts keen sysa behind dark glasses, and has a developed sense_ef humor —not robust, rather subtle.

“One bad to have vocal ts):tanlque to sing tbe old operas", he explains "Rossini, Oonlxettl snd so forth

’ can't be sung by dvba *"But nowadays anybody wltb

stamina and a good voice can be coached through Toeca', for ex­ample.".

A strong personality is equally essential, says Pelletier. You must also be what he calls ‘ripe.’ 'That Is to say, a (wrtain amount of season­ing In the musical game Is s strong asset—children out of High school are severely han<llcapped.

You must have musicianship, be adds, because you may be <»Iled upon to sing a new role wltb only a few days to learn it, and If It takes you a week to get one aria through

fyou r bead, yoaH get no place In opera. There ark'plenty, eays Pel­letier. Vho do need a w ^ on one piece, and sometimes It’s not really learned then.

When you've learned your aoUege, anci ao forth, you stUI aren't thrpugh. Bad musielanaUp keeps a lot of singers out of the Metro­politan; (allure to study the whole field of muste, not merely singing, keeps a lot mote on tbe stdewalk.

Perhaps moat ourious of oU, to the layman. Is Mr. Pelletier's sug­gestion that singers flrst learn to apeak correctly.

"1 And that when a word Is cor­rectly pronounced In good BngU$b. the tone whan It Is sung is U k ^ to be good also” , says-ha

And finally, he thinks the present system of bearing ntw voices over the radio Is much better than tbe old system wbereunder 30 to $0 of them, once a week, used to stand on a oold apd empty stoM, and sing Uielr pieces Into tbe unligbted. un- remnslve, untenanted auditorium.

^ e r y iSiesday Pelletier, with Lee t>atUaon and some others, bears 80 to 40 slnprs at the NBC studios. A fter the first 9 bars they know, but they alwa)m bear through an aria just to be sure.

The good feature 1- tbat i f you pass tbat first hearing, you get two rehearsals and a performance. A ft­er that you may be called down to tbe Met to sing, but your nerves are gone—or should be.

And the audition committee will have seen how you get along with your rehearsals and the orchestra— In the old days the augiut commit­tee used to be fooled once in a while, giving valuable contracts (and money) to human parrots without brains or musicianship.

ANTI-ntUST LAWS MAY BE REVISED

Senator (PMahoney Hopes His BiO Win Have Effect On The Present Sitnation.

Washington, Dec. 9— (A P )— The principal problem la revUring the sntl-trust taws. Senator O'Mahoney (D., Wyo.), said today. Is "the ef­fect legislation would have upon business at the present moment"

He conferred iresterdsy with A t­torney General Chimmlnga on anti­trust legislation, which may ba a major Item on the administration program (or the 1988 sssslon of Congreaa

Afterward O'Mahoney said be was hopeful tbat action would be taken on the bill proposed by him and Senator Borah (R., Idaho) for FedeiyU licensing ot corporations engaged In interstate commerce.

" I reo^gnlxe the fact tbat when tbe word ’licensing' is mentioned, a lot of people think of a dog collar' O'Mahoney said.

‘This bill, however, would set business free, because for the last 90 years we have been cresting boards snd <x>mmlsslons aad giving them discretionary authority over busl­nesa. This bill would not give dis- cretionsry authority to anybody.”

The Borah-O’Maboney measure Is designed to "prevent combinations In reatralnt of trade and consplra- rtea to monopolise trade."

Probe SuggestedPresident Roosevelt’s lieutenants

have given no direct Indication whether they would support' this speelfle MU. Some obeerrers b^ Have a broad congressional Invefti- gatlon of monopolistic prsetiees may be proposed before legislation Is asked.

While oa hla Florida trip, the President (inferred on the subject with -Assistant Attorney General Robert Jackson, wbo is prosecuting several anti-trust aulta

Under the Borah-O'Mohoney MU, corporations Joing brslneas in Inter- ststs (mmmeree would have . t o pro­cure Ucanaes from the Federal Trade CMmmlsslaa.

REICH TO TAKE OVER A a CHURCH PROPERTYBarHn. Dec. 9-—(A P )—The cur­

rent' iieue of Sehwarakorpa, the weekly organ of Relehafuehrer Adolf Hitler's blackshlrted "S3" Guard, predicted today that the state soon may seize church prop­erty on ground It belongs to the community.

“We will not be able to evade the painful task of some day detertnla- ing to whom so-called church prop­erty belongs legaUy," the Nazi pub­lication o ^ rv ed .

Mucb churcb property, tbe week­ly argued, dates back to the Ume when the church and state were In harmony. I t declared there never was any tntentlen that It should be the poeaesslen of one group of rell- gionlsta, but tbat It should be com­munity property.

"The earoe thing applies to ‘ehurchly’ schools and other insti­tutions, all of them community

property, whose administration was left to the church oa the principal ’kultui' bearer," the pubUcatlra said, “but not with the understand­ing that It should become the poa- n is loB o f a private organization."

According to the "Deutsche Ar- beitakorrespondenz," the church property In Germany totala a b ^ 3,800,000 acres.

The teaching of Germanic nature worship on a par with Protestant and Catholic religious instruction in the schools also was demanded ^ tbe publication.

It aald teachers should be Nazis.

AaUng that the Board of Select' men take action to complete equall aatlon of financing incident to tne eofiaoUdatlon of the town'* achool dlatricta. Selectman Richard Mat' tin haa noted that but little of definite nature haa been accompllab' ed In the matter atnee the varloua achool dlatrlota were conaolldated la April, 1082. A t that time there were elirht achool dlatricta here,

. numbered from 1 to 0, but the 6th dlatrlct had prevloualy been abaorb- ed by the 0th.

Ur. Martin pointed out lu t Mon' day, at a meetLif of the Board of Beleetmaa, that Hartford baa re* eaatly completed equallaatlon of ita oonaoUdatlon problama by arutrU' tioo and acreement, and he au(* geated that a final dlapoaiUon of Maachaater'a almilar problam be effected abortly.

Provtitea Methoda While there la a atate aututa

which provldea for procedure In tax and cooaolldatlon equallaatlon caaea, it la underatood that the atatute method haa not been employed aa yet by any town, and that In the munidpalltlea ethich bare complet­ed their conaolldatlon, the final aet' tlementa have been made on aa agreement baala.

A plan haa bean workad out local­ly, whereby equallaatlon can be car­ried ou t but Mr. Martin objecta to certain pbaaaa of the plan aa it atanda, aa maklnr for unfalmaaa. Together with the propoaed plan, the flgurea herewith are fumlahad.

Aa win be aean from an examina­tion c t the flgurea, aome of the aebool dlatricta have a debt to be aqualiaed, and othara have a credit to be obtained. Taking the le t Oia- triet aa an example of a .dlatrlct which will have a debt to equallxa, It win be noted that that dlatrlct'a total aaaeta are $3,68040, ita total liabintiea are $1460,'and tbarafora, ita aet erorth la rated $1,180.60. A diatrict grand Hat of $313,681 ahown, thla aum being 47 per cent o f the total grand Uat of $47,444,103 for an dlatHcta. Multiplying thla paroantaga by the total net worth od an dlatricta, $200,780.73, it win be found that the net worth of the lat Diatrict for equallaatlon la $1,- 681.68, or, an amount $500.06 more than tlia aet worth of the lat Dla- trict'a Aaaeta. To ralae thla aum on th« baala of a dlatrlct aaaesament o f $378481 erould entail a tax of 8.06 mlUa. Receipta from dlatricta auch aa the lat, would be gathered, and then allocated to the dlatricta, auch aa tha 4th, 7tb and eth that have credlta due becauae their net erorth for equalization la more than the computed worth after llabllittea were deducted.

Unfair, Saya Martin In criticizing the above plan, Mr.

Martin baa atated that the fairest method of arriving at the net worth for equalization la not served by the plan. It will be noted that the at­tached plan uses the districts' grand lists and their individual per­centage of the total grand list of 1083 as a multiple In determining the net worth for equalization Klar- tln believes that to use the grand lists to obtain the percentage mul­tiple la unfair, as a district with large grand Hat might not neces­sarily contain the greatest amount of assets In schools. Mr. Martin would obtain the percentage multi pie from the relation of a district s total assets with theXotal a.ssets ot all districts.

A breakdown of the various achool dlstiicU' assets and llablll- tlea will be printed tomorrow.

Whether or not the districts can get together to adopt an equaliza- UoD plan has been doubted by pome selectmen, who believe that certain deep differences will make it neces­sary to find recourse to the state Statutes. However, no leading rea­son why arhitratkm cannot be used to settle the matter has been ad­vanced other than that ‘ 'nobody will change their mind. Concerning equalisation, and everybody has an opinion made up concerning It."

From the health viewpoint, eggs not only furnlah protein of hign biologic quality which makes them an axealleat aubatltute for meat, but they are, in fact, more that; a sub- etltuta becauaa agga contain more vltamlna and mlnetal'alemanta. par­ticularly, phoephorua, lion and cal­cium, than meat, ths State Depart­ment of Health said In Ita current weekly bulletin, raoommendlng the inolueion of eggs In the family oiat at least four tlmea a week if poaat- ble.

Furtbermora, eggs are similar to milk In their vltamoi content, but are superior to milk in their con­tent of Iron and of ritamUi O which protects children against rickets, the bulletin stated. Bgge can well be used to mipplement milk ant are valuabla for this purpose In ' the youhg., chUd’t diet which contains proportlanately mors milk than the adult diet. Milk la low in iron, so egga make a eplendld complement for It. Next to ths flab oils, egg yolks are the richest food source or Vitamin D, administration o f which la especially important In the win­ter when obtldren receive leas of thU protective element from the sun­shine.

10S6. end n s -per cent above 1983. He said -he expected a favoreUe trade balsnee of $100,0(M,000, three times that of last year.

Eccles* diagnosis, given yesterday to the Senate Banking Committee, waa that the buslnesa slump would continue until there was a "leveimg off" of pricea Thla woulu be neces­sary, he said, ao that income ot unorganised workers, farmers and government employes would more nearly equal the income of organised srorkere and operators In the indus­trial field.

"That ia just srhat we are trying to do," aaid Senator Pope (D-Idahoi, oo-euthor of the Senate farm bill. "We are tiytng to rtlae the price ot farm products to parity."

A Baaaoo. For SlumpChairman Harrison (D-UIss:) ot

the Senate Finance Committee agreed that unbalanced prices *T>robaUy are oae of the reasons lor this slump." Hs added that betUr farm prices, psasage of housing legislation and tax revlaion ' "will aid, too.”

SenatoY Lodge (R-Uaas.) Indicat­ed he agreed generally with Eccles' thesis, but added: "A large share ot these Ugh wages foi Industrial workers are on paper oni.»."

Bodes said the recession would "make budget balancing impossi­ble" If it eontiniisd.

Senator Minton, however, declar­ed Ua propoaai to balance the bud­get “workj so well In Indiana, i dost see why It shouldn’t work lor the nation.”

(The-theory of a groaa Income tax aa contrasted with a net tax Is that tba former la levied on a man's an­nuel intake, net on hla annual profit).

Eliminate Evaaloas.A gross Income tax, M.nton said,

wool ’ eliminate the UkeUbood ot evasions and avoidance beraiise the only exemptions would possibly be a fanatc one for small wage-camera. In Indiana farmsra and corporatlona pay one-fourth of one per cant;.tax, and all others pay one per cent.

Senator Harrison criticised it as “much tike tbs sales tax" and said it would abandon the principle ot "taxation on the baali of ability to pay."

Chairman Vlnaon (D-Ky.) of the House Tax aub-oommittee said "we are still going abesd" on modlUcs- Uop proposals for the undistributed profits tax. The suggested revision Includes abolition of the Isvy for corporations with Incomes up to S28,(X)0, and easing of the burden on larger firms.

The Brookings Institution, basing Its call for repeal oa a ease study of lji60 corporations, said of tie tax: "Hia fundamen.U weakness is that It limits the possibility ot prompt and fiexible capital develop­ments and handicaps with particu­lar aeverity a multitude of small and medlum-slscd . busii.eaa enter- priaea.

"It bears with particular severity upon new companies or those which are endeavoring to recupercto from a period of misfortune.’’

MACCABEES DROP RULEBYWOMAN

Howard H. Spencer k Elect­ed Commander To Suc­ceed Mrs. Perkins.

Msnebeater Tent, No. 3, Knights of the Uaccabeea, in line with tents all over the country, admitted wom­en between 16 and 60 on the same basis as men a few yeara ago, as wall aa juniors under 16. The women en W the same social and beneficial benefita too, but In the' 80 yeara ot Manchester Tsht’a his­tory no woman wielded the gavel until the peat year. The Knights overthrew petticoat rule at tbeir meetlnig last night by electing How­ard H. Spencer as commander, a po- slUon he held bsretofors In the pest. He succeeds Mrs. Etta Per- klna. The vote of the women Haecabees was challenged inasmuch aa It was discovered no charter had ever been received by the local tent, according them that privilege. Ra- porta around town today would seem to indicate that there were fireworks and the women left the meeUng en masse.

Hr. Spencer’s associate officers will be Paul Rlnl, lieutenant com­mander; Alvin L. Brown, record keeper; Ernest F. Brown, chaplain, sergeant, John A. Odermann; sen­tinel, William Tallon; trustee for three years, John Odermann, Sr., trustee for 1 year, B. F. Brown. The InatallaUon of these officers and several appolnUve officers prill take place at the first meeUng In January.

The lodge also voted at last ntgift’s meeting to take a three- year lease of Ita preaent meeUng place, the Balch and Brown ball on Depot Square.

Plans are already underway for the celebration of the 80tb anni­versary of the tent In Manchester, together with the recognition of 80 yurs of eonUnuoua service of Tent No. 2’a first and only record keeper. Alvin L. Brown of Main street. This record la unequalled In the his­tory of the Maccabees, anywhere In the country.

hours In the bands of voluntary boards.

Under that systsm the adminis­trator would be required to appoint a board to Investiigate complaints from each industry and to abide by the board’s recommendations In fixing minimum wages and maxi­mum hours.

Rep. Ramspeck (D., Oa.), second ranking majority member of the Labor committee, criUclsed the voluntary board propoaai declaring It would "be going further than the invalidated NRA in delegating authority."

Ramspeck aaid if the proposal waa adopted, it would result In the bill being sent back to the commit­tee for revision and thus prevent Its enactment at the apeclal session.

Chairman Norton (D., N. J.) ol tba Labor committee, explaining the propoaai would "decentralise" authority of the administrator, said It was designed to prevent him hav­ing "too much power."

The Senate waa leas hopeful than the House of getting a farm bill vote by Saturday. Because only two weeks of the scheduled special seaslon remain, party leaders start­ed applying prsasurs for action. Attempts were being made to nego­tiate compromises on some of the more controveraial iaauaa.

Friends of the Senate bill said ths strength of the campaign to send It back to committee was waning.

Attempts to revise the farm leg- ‘slatlon were defeated yesterday In both Senate and House.

Modern Industry exists to produce more and better goqds at the least roaslble cost to toe consiuner, he ■aid, adding:

"Efficient eperaUon has made this poealble. Employers have not ac­complished It at toe expense of labor. Higher wages, shorter -work­ing hours and bettsr working con- diUoaa have been toe riua.

"Dlaloeatlon of toe process which haa brought about tola result la tn- ■tantly reflected la toe economic! picture. Recently national labor unions have made uneconomic de­mands which forced pricea upward and caused consumer buytng to de­cline. Industry—capital and labor —anu toe public are adversely af­fected.”

Peace for (tenfliet jLabor, capital and government

must sll contribute toward clearing j toe air of recriminations and sub-

Istitute a philosophy of peace for one of conflict, toe speaker asserted.

Ehrery employer, he said, must have a "atncerely founded and effec­tive labor policy, which would In­clude "a aj^em of collective co­operation motivated by mutual in- teieat.”

He expressed toe belief, in this- connection, that toe best interests of toe public and. business required that management and employes deal directly with each other. He liao called on induetry to pay good wages and Increase toe market for Ita product, "leveling, ua far as possible, toe peaks and valleys and entablishlng a plateau ot prosper­ity." '

Weir objected to toe term "col- lecUve baigaining," which he said connoted In most minds "horse­trading," In which one group tried to take advantage of toe other, wifi "somebody usually hurt or aggriev­ed." He suggested substitution ot toe term "collective (xxiperatloo."

REFUSES DETAOS OF ODD EXPERIENCE

Woman, fiYe Honrs In Shark Infested Waters, Keeps The Detaib To Herself.

New York, Dec. 9.— (A P )—,A pretty young woman, who faced death to black tropical seas for five hourn last Sunday, lay to a Brook­lyn hospital today, weak from ex­posure but apparently determined to keep to herself the details of her strange experience.

Miss Eleanor Oflutt, 38, of Loe Angeles, was to danger of pneumo­nia from her long c-rdeal to the ocean, but even that threat did not Induce her to talk.

Only from (teptato G. C. Bown and a few membera of the crew of the freighter LlUlan Luckenbach did the story of her reseiM come, and the tellers knew ndthtog of why or how Mlee Offutt went overside aa the ship sailed north of San Sal­vador.

It waa sheer luck She survived at all, the captsdn and tha others thought

Danger From Skartm"It waa remarkablo the Miarks

didn’t find her before we did," the skipper said of the S-bour eeiuxdi.

As It waa. Miss Offutt waa aeml- conscious when she waa hauled into a lifeboat at dawn.

She bad boanted tha Shto at San Francisco, and to Captain Bown abo seemed despondent and nervous. At 1:68 a. m. last Sunday the ship waa roused by Mrs. O. D. Brundrttt Mlaa Offutt’s cabin mats, with the alarm that tha youhg woman *«»d gone overboard.

A heavy northerly swell lifted the ship as (teptato Bown swung about to begin the long search. Search­light beams raked tba blackneae. but nowhere on the troubled waters waa there a sign of Mlaa Offutt.

LUeboat ReoallagA lifeboat waa lowered, but as

hours passed all bagan ^vtog up hope. The lifeboat waa racalled.

Then at dawn a woman's crias were heard somewhere near the ship. A lookout spotted Miss Offutt and she waa (julckly rescued.

She waa too weak to tal)c, and four sealed envelopes found In her cabin, containing notes which might have dCeclosed her secret, were re­turned to her unopened.

The ship docked yesterday tn Brooklyn.

Arthur B. McOtnley, aports editor of the Hl^tford Ttmea, was the principal ipsakernt the open meet­ing sponsored by St. Bridget’s Holy Name Society to the church ball last nlgbt Thare were nearly 200 to attendance. Asslating Mr. McGto- , ley was Louis (Kid) Kaplan, the Meriden and Hartford “buss saw”, bead of the featherweights to the world soma 16 yeara ago and John De Ridder, who has been knocking about to diffarent lines of sports ■(aec about the time the rounder was eonvertad Into tba gams now known aa baseball.

The meeting was presided over by Michael Benevento, who announced it waa the first of a aeriea of such meetings that bad been planned tor the winter by the Holy Name Soci­ety. 1

Mr. McGtnIey lost little time to getting Into action when he was to- trodu(j^ and his wit and “wise­cracks’’ came fast and at all angles during hla 30 minute talk which be started by telling ot the "men to blue" who call tha balls and ■trikes and mentioned Tim Hurst one of the real old timers. For these men, he ssid. be always bad a warm ■pot in bis heart for their courage to call them aa they saw them.

He told the gathering that some yeara ago be waa Invited to come to Manchester and speak. It was the occasion when the town turned out to pay honor to Joe McCluikey, tha Manchester ileet footed youngster who bad juat returned from the Olymplca.

A man by the name ot 'Verplanck. be said. Introduced the speakera and when he came to Introduce McGtoley be said “1 now give you Abe Gtoa- burg", which baa not been uncom­mon to several other totroduotiema. From bla tribute to the umpires ha ■poke of different baseball players that made names to the Mg league and mentioned John MoGraw as one of them.

He told of the early d a ^ of tho playing of Leu Gehrig, to Hartford, now one ef the outstanding players to all baacbalL Gehrig recently ex­pressed the opinion, he asld, that the Yankeea of 1937 were a better team than the Yankees of 1987, with the poasihle exception of BUI Dlekey, the preaent catcher.

Ooimle Mack, the PbUadelphto leader, now rMaed to the haU of fame. Is likely not to be seen ■■ aa active manager this year, (tennle la not to good health, the apaakar said.

Tba present Yankee teqm la too good for tbs other teams to tha laagus and should ha tavelad off as tha Yankaas not only made a runa­way of tba race to the laague, but

a farce ot the World’s Series.Wreatltog aa It to carrtod on to­

In footbaU there were many being mentioned as AD American players of all times, but to those who saw Jim lliorpe Che Indian, to action there waa still held by many the oplMon that lliorpe to tha aU tlma a' star player.

Of the heavyweight fighters there was ona that was likely to stand out at all times aa the great fighter. He referred to Jack Dempeey. Tunney waa a clever fighter ,and prepared long tor the flgbt brtth Dempasy. Hto retirement when head of the division did not detract from hto good nature aa Tunney to a remarkable fellow to meet and know, ha aaid.

Aa tor tha fight between Sebmal- tog and Jea Lewis, tha opinion ex­pressed by Tunney that Max would win tha fight when they again met was the;,Mme optolot; that be held

Louto Kaplan, wbo waa later- vlawsd by McGtoley told ot hto early - flghta to Mtridan. Ra came to Meriden when be waa 10 years of age. Hto diffarent flgbta were be­fore clubs and at emokera. He was never to the amateur ranks. The first big chance that be bad came to him to New York and he was the winner. The first knockout was to Cleveland and aa be had difficulty to making weight on the advice of hto manager Danny .McMahon ha gave up the crown. He would not advtoe any young man to take up fighting aa a proleaston.

John De Ridder recqUed a game ot baaketbaU played to Manchester between "G” and a Hartford team. In that game Dick DlUon. wbo um­pired the first half was the referee to the second half. De Ridder told a ■toy ol DUIon being set upon and ftodtog it neceaaaiy to run frofn the bMI.

“BIG A l f i r TAUGHT TO HIGH SCHOOL DANCERS

Mr. WIrtalla’a Class Make Headway After A Slow Start; Numerous Senior Members.Old Man December certairJy pull­

ed the wool over the eyes of that cunning Mr; Weather, for here. In the heart of winter, apples are In blossom (and they aren't winter ap­ples but "Big Apples."

Since dancers are made and not bom, many high school swlngsters (including an Increasing number of Seniors) should be thankful that Mr. and Mrs. Wlrtalla's weekly In­structions are available to them every Wednesday afternoon.

At the opening session of this Instruction, one would have thought that the outcome of the whole af­fair would take a swing for the worse, but now after more than a month's practice all seem to be truckin! along O. K.

Before venturing Into the task of teaching the new dance craze, "The Big Apple", which was reputedly started way down in "de" South, Mr. Wlrtalla related the history of It.

Several South CZaroltna college students saw a grout of negroes dancing in a somewhat ceremonious manner In a southern night club called "The Big Apple." Immediate­ly they copied It. named It the "Big Apple" and made history out of It.

After thla craze had invaded the North, the new M. H. 8. slummera demanded to be taught the apple of an)rone's eye.

So thla is how it all started In dear old M. H. S.

"Flea-Hoppln'," which appears to ii.nocent spectators to be a competi­tive marathon, seems to be closest to the hearts of the dancmg class "studes" for they certainly put ai they've got In It and they all seem to get a kick out of the "Suzy Q."

Alas, what has the future store, "A Madam X ?"

U V aY GAME OF BINGO ENTERTAINS FRENCH CLUB

A brief review of numbers was an Opening number of the Freshman Sophomore French club Friday. A very Uvely game at Bingo follow­ed In which Marguerite Barry, David Carter an^ Steffle Kayewski were winners.

Each winner drew a slip of paper on which waa written a stunt for him to perform. Steffle Kayewski wrote two French paragraphs and read them to the club. David Car­ter spelled a French vocabulary and Marguerite Barry Imitated Shirley Temple by singing' "On the Good Ship LoUypop." Kingsley Carpenter, John Hultlne and Dorothy Sllver- steln entertained the club by read­ing French poems and imitating Miss Beulah Todd, the French teacher.

Plans for a Christmas meeting were discussed by the club, and the students drew names fot exchang­ing presents- from "A Bag of Namea" A special entertainment committee waa chosen for the Christmas meeting. Ehreryoi\e was sorry to leave when the bell rang.

June Blckmore, '4UB.

The Debating club held its first public debate after school last Fri­day In the assembly hall before many Manchester High students. The subject of the debate which was won by the affirmative side, was; "Resolved—Latin should be taught In Manchester rilgh School." Both the affirmative and the negative teams presented good arguments but the affirmative team came out on top.

Arguments which were presented by the affirmative team were: (1) Latin should be taught because It is the basis of all the other lan­guages. 121 College entrance re­quires it. (3) Pupils who take Latm as a subject are usually fourteen percent higher In their ocher sub­jects. (4) It develops one's mind. (5) 1. helps one to understand our own English language better.

The negative points were ^so good. The arguments furnished by this team were: (1) It Is uninter­esting and dry. (2) It la too difficult and requires so much timi that other subjects are likely to (all be­cause of It. (3) It IS a deao language and If not useful to the students. (4) Twentieth century people who claim to be modem, should not study an ahclent language like Latin.

Another debate. Resolved—That Manchester High should continue night football games, which waa scheduled also for Friday, was omit­ted because of lack of time.

The debate was judged by Miss Helen Pace.

Frances E. Wallett '3BB.

May we be among the first to congratulate the valedictorian and salutatorian of the class of 38A? We wish them the best that there Is - -and they deserye It.

We wonder what prompted the giving of so many gifts to our ever- popular Mrs. Ompbell! Those shiny apples looked good-land so did the Wrigleys! |

We noticed a great crowd of M.H. S. rooters present at the East Hart- to d basketball game. Let's con- tjfue to support the team In this loyal fashion.

By administering a 24-0 football drubbing to the second tesm. Isst Fridsy at Mt. Nebo, the Cross-Cdun try. firsts gained ample revenge for the previous tie and defeat at the acconc'a bands. Tom Deardoo aboW' ed himself to be a real football play, er aa be made three touchdown runs averaging about SO irards each. Fran Leary also starred by making one touchdown and doing some fine tackling all through tne game.

The first team lost no time In getting started as Tom Dcardon ran (or a touchdown In the first quarter. Then In the second quarter Tom scored another, and Fran Leary duplicated.

In the second half, the firsts were stopped almost completely, even though ^ ey scored another touch' down. The reason waa AI U t- vlnchyk's appearance after his dentist's appointment. As soon aa be entered the lineup, the seconds took heart and began to play hard. Several tlmee they threatened, but the lighter first team held like stoBe waU. Tom Desudon scored the tooebdown^for the firsts.

Another touchdown would have been added In this half If PUl EUiot had bqen careful about being offside. Incidentally Sam Harris, did a batter refereeing job this game. '

Gladys Addy and Mary Leone seemed to have trouble keeping their seats at the Komlsarjersky lecture. Be careful, girls, you are oi'r worthy seniors now.

Preparations for Christmas were discussed at the regular meeting of the student council, Wednesday dur­ing activity period in 14F.

Miss Mary McGuire, faculty ad­viser of the Student Council, Intro­duced the subjects of Christmas baskets In this fashion.

"There is little need to exhort the members of your room to Inter­est themselves In the matter of Christmas,' baskets—it Is an es­tablished custom now. Each year, the town has grown to know, that students of M. H. S. will answer the call of the Christmas spirit and pro­vide at least if, dinners for Its townspeople’s CbrUtmaa. At least one from every homeroom In the school. Many rooms fill " even 3 baskets—we call them "dinners' but they turn out to be provision boxes because there Is always a good amount of such commodities aa flour, sugar, vegetables, pre serves, pickles etc., to help prepare meals for the lean days after the Christmas feast.'

Miss Reynolds, the Welfare Nurse will assign the boxes, but if any students wish to suggest families to whom dinners should gu. Miss Me Guire will be glad t> hear trom them. The boxes are to be ready for distribution at ten o'clock frlday morning, Dec. 24. Perishables wdll be brought to school by the donnera by 9:30 the same day.

Christmas seals will be sold again this year In the hemerooms. Each student has been requested to buy at least three seals to help the worthy task of trying to prevent tuberculosis.

As haa been the custom of the Franklin building, each homeroom will select a carol, practice It bC' bind closed doors, and then the week before Christmas, each home­room will have a turn at slngmg their carol at the turn of the stair at each end of Franklin Building at 8:10 and 1:08. All room doors will be left open to hear the singing.

He is captain of the cross-country team, a stellar miler on the track team and a member of the swimming team. "Fran” belongs to the Student Clouncll and to Sock and Buskin. While a ' sopohomore, he was presi­dent of hla class that of 1939A. His hobby Is not as you might think, that of winning races, but Is a very prosaic one, namely, collecting stamps.

Three times he has broken the school cross-country record and he Is the holder of the school mile rec­ord. In cross country his best time waa 12:47 and for the mile was 4:24.3.

Although "Fran" claims his hob­by is collecting stamps, he seems to have a peqchant (or collecting trophies as he possesses twelve gold medals, one bronze medal and a sli­ver cup, which represents the New England cross-country champion ship. His most difficult race he claims was last year's ConnecUcut State Invitation meet; nevertheless he was again victorious.

Coach Wlngren la to be compll mented upon developing as fine a boy and runner as "Fran” Leary Under Coach Wigren's tutelage Leary, his protege, haa become the finest schoolboy runner In this sUte

It was an ill wind that blew for East Hartford last Friday night when Manchester Invaded East Hartford and defeated them by score of 43 to 30 In the' first CCIL basketball game of their season be­fore a crowd of approximately 1100. It «*a8 also a Manchester boy that took top honors In the scor­ing, Eld Kose, who led the Manches­ter attack by scoring 15 points.

Two squa^ were used to help Manchester gain her outstanding triumph and both squads worked with good cooperation In an almost perfect combination of passing and shooting. Outstanding for the first squad were Kose and Mur­phy; while In the second squad, no one man did all the work. Those who stood out for East Hartford were Browp and Moran.

The game waa fast from the very beginning and both teama were playing with lightning quickness. Although Manchester was leading 17-3 a t the first quartfcr and 27-10 at the half, the East Hartford boys managed to make a small rally In the third quarter which brought the score up to 30-20 and at the end of the game the boys were still battling at a score of 43 to 30.

One of the largest crowds in the history of Ea.it Hartford basket­ball witnessed the game and one of these reasons was the large gather­ing of Manchester students and Alumni that followed their home team to cheer over their victory. The balcony of the Elast Hartford gym waa so crowded that It was doubted If room (or another on­looker was left.

In the preliminary game the Manchester seconds played a hard fought battle to win by two points (19-17) tn the last minutes of the game, pavldaon and Davis were the outstanding Manchester play­ers In thla game.

There was dancing after the game In which all kinds of danc­ing were displayed Including truck­ing and other various kinds of steps.

OUFTME NEW YORK IN ASSEMBLY FILM

See Harsh GoYemor Of New Amsterdam Losing Sup­port Of Colony.

The history of New Amsterdam, the third In the series of U. S. His­tory moving pictures, which was presented to the Juniors and Seniors on Wednesday added to their conception of colonial cus­toms, homes and noted figures In early American history.

As the scene opened. Peter Stuyvesant. the stern Director General of the colony, sat at his deak tapping bis woollen leg on the floor as he read the complaint of Jbls subjecta. Meanwhile leaders of the burghers were assembled In an assigned meeting place discussing the harsh rule of Peter Stuyvesant, and deciding what coub be done to join the Netherlanda to England.

ITie people finally sent a rep­resentative to England to persuade Clharles II to make the Dutch ter­ritory In America a proprietory colony.

When the Bhigllsh realized that the Dutch were controlling a valu­able fur trade on the Hudson River and were encouraging smuggling, which made the enforcement of trade laws Impossible the English King granted bis brother. Duke of York, this territory.

Later when British ships wers seen spproacnlng the port the peo­ple. including Stuyvesant's son. fearing they would be massacred, revolted against their ruler and signed a petition refusing to fight the English.

Although Stuyvesant refused to surrender at first, he finally de­cided resistance was hopeless and the British conquered the Nether­lands without firing a shot.

An Interesting feature of these pictures Is the luxurious furniture of the colonists used at that time. (Copies of this furniture have been reproduced and are often seen In the modern homes of today.

One event which proved humon< ous to the audience wap the man­ner in which a British soldier pour­ed water on the lighted wick of a cannoit when the surrender flag of the Dutch was raised.

To emphasize an Important part of a document, the picture was focused on few outstanding lines, to show the reader their sig­nificance.

Several picture shots were taken of the Dutch flag to remind the audience that, although the burgh­ers were planning their freedom, they were still under the Dutch regime.

By ALAN GOULD New York, Dec. 9.—(AP)— Thte

year’s "UtUe AU America” fool- baU selections, compiled today by the Associated Press, gives special emphasis to the strong brand of small-college competition In tha south and Its neighboring cornbelt.

There’s no sectional monopoly on class te this respect, notwithstand­ing moat of the unbeaten small-col­lege teams thlh year are to be found In the Mississippi valley expanse ot gridiron activity.

The combined south and south­west contributes flve of the "big little fellows" on the 1937 aggrega­tion. Three represent the middle west, while the eaot has two dele­gates and the far west one.

The "Little AU America" not only combines plenty of speed, pow­er and deception, but lists a num­ber of standouts whose names may draw professional headlines te another year or two.

Seldom baa there been a better crop of small-coUege backs. So swift was the race for honors that one of last year’s choices, big Dick Wels- gerber of WUllamette, failed to re­peat. Wetegerber and bis riinnteg mate, BUly Beard, shared offensive honors (or the little Oregon school, but did not quite measure up to the class of their main rivals, on the season’s records.

Another Repeater Joining Albright’s Captain Dick

Riffle, only backfleld repeater, la Burns McKinney, 160-pound spark­plug. jack-rabbit runner and crack passer for the Hardte-Slmmons team that te unbeaten for the sec­ond year; and two fullbacks, Wen­dell Butcher of Guitavus Adolphus (Minn.) and Clay Calhoun, captain of the Loyola team of New Orleans. Butcher, a powerhouse runner and blocker, played 18 games In three years without a substitution. Cal­houn, despite little support,, was a standout against eveiy opponent as a llne-plunger, blocking and defen­sive back.

Other backs who cams highly recommsnded tecluue Gaylon Smith of Southwastem, Tenn., .captain Devon Payne, a 160-pounder at Louisiana college who scored twice against the strong Centenary team; Ray Burnett, ace of the unUeO'‘un- beaten Arkansas S ta te . teacbere, and Johnny Oelerich, a bah-cairylng terror for undefeated St. Ambrose of Iowa.

A former fullback, Wallace John­son of Austin college, Tex., wae selected as pivot man for a line averaging 198 pounJe from end to end. Johnson was rated the beat lineman In the strong Texas, confer­ence. Outstanding also te Wayne Godard, star tackle on Cape Girar­deau’s, Mo., unbeaten-untied team. The only repeater te the line is Douglas Oldershaw, brillUnt guard from Santa Barbara, who edged out another West coast contender, Elliott Becken of Willamette.

How Team Is ChosenObviously, the dividing line

separa tl^ the little All-America Add and talent from their big league brothers xlg-aage. In general, it te a requirement tn making the Associated Press selections that the college represented play a majori­ty of Its games te its own class and that enrollment should not exceed 1,000 male undergraduates. All the players picked for this year’e eleven qualify on these potnts. In moat esses, tha student body represented does not exceed 800.

Although they do not ptey Mg time schedules, schools like West­ern Reserve and Brooklyn college have been omitted from the little All-America class because of their huge enrollment. On the other hand, there are small enrollment colleges, such as Oonzags, which ptey major league schedules and are also omit­ted. Texas Tech, whose captain, Herscbel Ramsey, waa a little All- America end in 1938, has taken It­self out of consideration by moving Into major competition.

The South Methodists opened de­fense of their Y. M. C. A. Senior League basketball crown a t the Y last night with a lop-alded 41 to 19 triumph over Highland Park as Fish Murray and Vennard paced a 18-boop barrage by the (Hiurchmen. rbe Highlanders trailed by 19-2 at halftime and were never In the run­ning against iheir classy rivals, al­though Fraser, Bently and Ander­son did good work.

In the other games, the Celtics bad an easy time of It In trouncing the Cyvits to the tune of 45-15, every member of the winning team taking part In the scoring from the floor as 31 baskets swished through the mesh. Arklvy, HlltnskI, Antonio and Anderson were the big guns, while Comber and Rosell featured for the losers

The closest game of the evening saw the Eagles nose out Bt. John's in a nip and ' tuck clash, 18-18. SouthergtU, Hemenway and Yon' kowskl contributed all the scoring for the winners and Burke and

Local Sport Chatter

As the result of a conference ar­ranged by Mayor Joseph W. Hard- lug o. Bristol, an ardent sports en- thualaat, arrangements have been made for Bristol High to play its home gam.es at the State Armory there for the balance of the season . . . Bristol opened Its campaign in Its bandbox gym after disagreement with the National Guard over rent­al, but that's all been patched up and the Men of Monahan return' to the drill shed . . .

It's mighty hard to figure out why the Rec Senior League doesn't draw basketball fans to the triple- headers staged a t the East Side Rec every Tuesday night . . . the admleslou price te very low and providea a cage program that brings Mancbeeter’a leading court per- formera Into action . . . certainly the brand of ball displayed Is tops and there's thrills and excitement ever} minute . . .

The answer probably lies In the fact that Manchester haa such a wealth of basketball teams that It's Impossible (or any one quintet to acquire a large following . . . the PoUah-Americans are the only once who can point to a faithful band ot rootere In thte reapect . . .

Time was In the dsyi ot the Rec rive and National Guards and tn the years before their existence that there were only two outstanding teama In town . . ,'^fana lined up with either one or the other and stuck to their favorites through thick and thin . . . t h e respective merits of the teams waa the talk of the town and Interest was at fever pitch throughout the season , . .

Now there are ao many teams that fan loyalty is divided and In­terest seems to have faded as a ,-e- suK . . . nonethsleas. It's a sbaroe that local fans don't give the cagers the support they deserve . . . the question of financial gain doesn't enter Into the picture os the teams wouldn’t derive much revenue from a packed bouse at the price charg­ed. but a crowd always makes com­petition keener, more Interesting and colorful . . .

The Moriarty Brothers-Rec volley ball team will travel to Somerville this Saturday to play three matches In the Southern New Shigland League---- the locals will meet Bos­ton, SomervlUa and P aw tucket.,., all membera ot the team are re. quoted to attend practice tonight a t 8 o'clock a t the Bteet Side Rec.

TOe Polisb-Americana trek to Holyoke. Maea, this coming Sunday to take, on -the Polish-American AA of that city, last season's Western M amebusetta champions . . . . the PA’S won three out of (our games to ^ t e but expect to meet their stlffest competition to date In Sunday'! tusale.

Manchester's our choice to beat Meriden here tomorrow night though It looks like a stiff battle ....B risto l Is picked to defeat West Hartford In another thriller. 1/ the Hall team's showing agalnrt Meri­den ls any Indication of the team's strength . . . . the Mlddletown-East Hartford setto looks like a toss-up but Middletown is playing In Its own bailiwick and Is our selection.

Ski Stars Predict U. S. Jumping Champions Soon

New York, Dec. 9.—(AP)—Nlne;^tbere will be as many here asabroad.

"In my home. In Norway, all the kids are skiers. Birger |tuud—he u the best jumper now—was s lit­tle kid when I left there but good even then. Now that little boys and girls are doing It over here the American racers and jumpers will be just as good. In a few years, may­be better, for all Americans are good at athletics. r

"The. equipment 1s better. The slides are bettef*and there are more teachers. Yah. soon you have the best skiers In the world, here."

Lekang, who Is also a former na.- tlonal champion, and measures about flva-feet-throe to MlkkeUen's six feet, started talking about the long jumpers. He jumps "out of New Haven" aa they say aroimd the flght clubs.

"Twenty years ago no one would think of jumping 200 consistently. It was done but not often. Now they do 800."

"But," said Lekang seriously, “that Is not good. I think It is dan­gerous. The emphasis should be on downhill skiing. That is what most people"do and what gives them the most fun."

As they went Into the Garden, two Garden "regulars." complete with cigars, derbys and polo coate, came out.

"How did you like It?" asked the first.

"Well," hte friend replied, "there were a lot of knockdowns."

years ago when Strand MIkkelsen and Anton Lekprg walked down Broadway with skis over their ahou.ders kids asked, “Hey, you guys goln’ 'fishing?"

Today they ask for autographs.Wllch makes MIkkelsen and Le*

kang very happy. They are jump­ing and raring on skis at the win­ter sports show at Madison Square Garden and In a joltd, Scandinavian way they are enthusiastic about the growth of skiing In this country. They should bo. There were about 12,000 Id the Garden laflt night.

"Yah," said MIkkelsen, "it te a very big thing. 1 am very glad. It te a great sport and we helped, maybe, to put It over. I have been jumping and running In thte coun­try for 13 years. Sometimes we used to have more competitors than spectators. Today everyone Is ski­ing."

MIkkelsen lives In Greenfield, Mass. He is a big, broad shoulder­ed fellow who looks like Charlie Ruffing of the Yankees. He te a former national and eastern ama­teur jumping champion and a mem­ber of two All-America teams.

"Why not?” he said. "I started when I waa so high." He reached down and measured off 24 Inches from the floor.

"Well, maybe a little older. I won my first competition when 1 waa eight years old. Every year there are more good skiers. Soon

Jam Armory For Leasne Tilt Tomorrow Night; 1,- 500 Seats Made AyaOable

Manchester High’s baskstboU forces were tapering off today aft­er extensive practice sessions dili^ Ing the week and will be In top form for Meriden’s invasion of 4hs Stats Armory here tomorrow night In on all-lmportant Central Connecticut InterschoIasUo League encounter. Winners of two out of tbrss starts so far. the Red and V^lte hoopstera have high hopes of turning back the visitors to keep thetr League reeprd free of defeat.

Meriden'holds a wide edge in, 14 games played in the past seven years, having won ten of them, but Indications are that the Silver City array isn’t as strong thte year os it has been In recent seasons. Tbs Barnikowmen lost to their Alumni, a i did Manchester, and was bard pressed to eke out a two-point mai^ gin over West Hartford last week.

Indications are that a capacity crowd .vUI jam the Main street drill shed for this attraction and Faculty Manager Dwight Perry has made arrangements (or 1,800 bleaehsr seats, a small number of whirii will be reserved a t an added coet of ten centa per ticket. The preliminary 1a set for 7:30 O'clock, followed by the main clash a t 8:30 or tbereabeuta-

Coach Will Clarke plans to uae the same starting lineup with which he has startsd the season. Cots and Schleldge at forwards, Kose a t can­ter and Murphy and Taggart a t guards. It's certain, however, that tha second array of Gavello and Green, forwards, Ted Brown, center, and Harry Squatrito and 'Winster a t guards will also see plenty of oo- Uon.

John "Shorty" Malin, popular Hartford referee, will himdle the varsity contest.

Boston’s Dough Talks Loud­est At Major League Meet­ing Bot No Big Deiils Are Made; Bhral Circuits Stand Pat On The BasebaD.

Chicago, Dec. 9— (A P )—I f any­one insisted on swarding a "money spending” blue rlblxm for activity during the 1937 major leagues base­ball meetings, it would have to be pinned on the gilt-edged Boston Red Sox.,

The Red Sox, or rather owner Tom Taw)iey, know how to spend the shekels much faster than their deals during one of the dullest “ ivory markets" In recent seasons would Indicate. But what thby ac­complished looked big In contrast with the insctvlty o f a majority of other clubs.

Rookie Cost PlentyThey obtained young Ted Wll-

llons, on outfield star, from Son Diego for two players and cash. The New York Yankees offered $85,000 for WlUtams, so it con be assumed that Yawkey "laid It on tbe line" for the west coast youth. The Red Sox let Oscar MellUo go to the Browns aa a coach and participated In one of the three strictly oU- major deals of both the minor and major ossembUes, sending outfielder Buster Mills, Inflelder Ralph (Red) Kreas and Pitcher Buck Newsom to the S t Louis Browns for outfielder Joe Vosmlk.

With not a single big deal being made by either league at tbe major sessions, the fans will have to go back to tbe minor league gathering at Milwaukee for most of their "hot stove" topics this winter. Detroit and Chicago pjiUad the biggest transaction, with Chicago sending pitcher Vern Kennedy, outfielder Dixie Walker, and Inflelder Tony Piet to Detroit for outfielder Gerald Walker, inflelder Marvin Owen and catcher Mike Treah.

Stand Pat On Boll The majors foiled to see eye to

eye aa to the type of boll to be used and In yesterday's final and joint meeting, refused to reopen dis­cussions. The American League will continue to use the same boll as It has for many years, the fast or "rabbit" spheroid. The Nation' sis. after using the fast boll four seasons, will go back to the slower and heavier ball favored by pitchers.

The National circuit re-elected

Ford Frick president for three years, att^ renewed on agreement permitting Cincinnati to play seven night games next season. 'Hie junior Circuit, in which tb^ term of President William Harridge atlU has a year to run, turned down Cleveland's application for night boll.

Close up and short shots as the moguls headed homeward: Umpire Brick Owens and manager Jimmy Dykes running into each other in l the lobby . . . Owens cracking: I "Glad to see you Jim. In the winter time" . . . and Dykes' laughing comback: "Mutual” . . . Dykes promised Mickey Cochrane, whose trade of "Gee" Walker to (Chicago has Detroit fans yelling In protest, that He'd hold Walker out o f. the first Sox game at Detroit and tell them "he couldn't make the team. If It will make them feel any bet­ter” . . .

Puzzle: Joe Cronin and Bucky Harris together. Joe manages the Boston Red Sox and Is son-in-law of Clark Griffith, who owns the Washington Senators, who are man­aged by Harris who came from the Red Sox . . . You guess what they were talking about . . .

CINCE the beginning of Spain's civil war, every large Spanish

city and both insurgenU and Ley,, allots have turned out an amosing number of stamp Issues. Upwards of 2000 varieties have been print­ed to the confusion of the collector and the speculator. Recently, both sides have seized on the re- Jesse of miniature sheets. In many cases foreign speculators have printed "Spanish" stamps outside the country for Immediate Mie. The stamps never entered Spain. All of wMch behooves the collector to make current Spanish additions most carefully.
