In Response to Appeal “Kagawa explained that thia pe
riod of Continuous prayer was started in response to an appeal made by Btshcq* Stanley Jonaa of the Methodist church and well- known American writer. Dr.- Kagawa rccaivad a cable from Bishop JonM exactly a weak before war broke out asking Japanese to participate in a period of prayer for prevention of catastrophe in the Paciflc.
“ Responding to thia appeal mors than 200 members of the Japanese Methodist church, In-
membera of the Women’s Temperance Union, be*
once to hold praydr meet-' inga^day And night in the . Kanda Methodist church .(in Tokyo), ac- cording\to Kagawa.
“ Prayere also wars held during the day at the headquarters of the W.C.T.U. and^air night aCrvlces were held at the YM.C.A. building. Dr. K a ga ^ rovaaled that Masahashi Matsutanl, director of tha diriatlan AaaoclaUon of kall- Way Employes, ’nsva^lept a wink’ during the whole wealti.
“As for himself. KagaVa saxl he was able to stay up only three consecutive nights due to hls , being called out of town. \
tPrayera StiU Being Bald^. ‘ 'while expressing regrst tnqt
war waa unavoidable despite th' efforts of the Japanese envoys at Washington (Ambassador Kichisa* tmro Nomura and Special Envoy Baburo Kurusu), Kagawa said that even today prayers are being eald for the early conclusion of the war and reatoration of peace throughout the world."

8 Oantral Raw, Hartfard iBsaraaca
Brldgeportr\.ApriI (e)—Bridgeport police have rbrorted to Mayor Jasper Mct,evy there waa no fa ^ a l basis fo r^ New York newspaper's story that a “birth certlflcate mill" axisted in this city.
The newspaper published on March 8th a story relating the expcrleneea of a New Jersey-born reporter. Warren Glaser, who aaid he obUined a birth xertifleate here through an affidavit claiming he waa a natlVe of Bridgeport. Glaser aald such 'certifleatea were being handed out “hand over flat"
A warrant charging Glaser with conspiracy to obUin a birth cer- tifleate by false statemenU ha^ been Issued by the Superior^urt here, and ' the reporter has Indicated he will flght extradition to Connecticut. Three Bridgeport men have been arrested on similar chargea.
Only Four In DoubtThe police report said that 40
certifleatea based on affldavtu had been issued during a period of 85 years, and of these 31 were found in order after Investigation, and four, described as. "queation- ablc," ware surrender^ by their holders, 'v ,
It added:“ In the course o f his newflMper
story, it is noted that Mr. Glaser claims that on the day ho filed bis falsa affidaviU and received a birth certlflcate baaed thereon, many other pieraons were in line with, him either receiving or in the process of securing birth cer tifleatea on affidaviU.
"Our department, likewise, investigated this phase of the that- ter. The records of the health department clearly show that on the day the certificate was issued to Mr. Glaser, March 5, 1942, hla was the only certlflcate issued. The last certlflcate issued on affidaviU before that date was Issued on Feb. 25. The next ceitlflcate issued after Mr. QlsMr received his was issued on Miarcb 24, 1942. In other words from Feb. 25 to March 24. inclusive, only two certificates were issued on affidaviU, excluding the one. Improperly, secured by Glaser."

By SIgrid AmoOlympia, Wash., April 21—
(Wide World)—for 22 years now Olympia has led a pe<sullarly protected exiatence.
It has had, a second “Noah"— Skipper William Greenwood—living right on the water frofit in a second “ark,” waiting to save aU the repentant slnniria when the flood came.
Greenwood's ark to a slighUy top-heavy leviathan. It's 60 feet long, 22 f<x)t beam, topped with two fancy decks which skipper Greenwood fashioned lovingly in his spafo time—snd from strictly •pare Jmrto.
He planned to' load up with sin- neri, float over the tops of Olym- ]^ 's roofs, and come to an eventual safe anchorage aomewhere in the peaks of the Cascade mountains.
' Too Many CompUeatloaeBut now the city engineer’s of
fice has gone practical on him. They lay he must move, but there are too many complications:’ It never has been out on its shskedown cruise. The prow only feels the top of waves at high tide. And, as a matter of cold fact. Skipper Greenwood never did get around to assembling the engine. Then one day he traded it off for a suit of qrmor that caught his eye. He thought the iron suit would be good for the day he rah into the devil.
*nere are two other .hitches to the ark’s hauling up anchor Greenwood never has had time yt hook on the rudder and theto’e no eteering wheel.. But Oreenwocxl thinks that's Just captious criticism. It’s an ark, isn't it?
Spry Man Of 72Skipper Greenwo(xl is a spry
man of 72. He liver alone, except for a sympathetic dog which quite underetandq wheh the skipper uses big safety pins to splice hto autoenders. They are as much a part of Olympia's life as the Washington state capltbl.
T he dog to named l ^ t . The htaadmsn brought him. ‘rbs day 1 vtotted Greenwood be mcmed to acquire another dog. He went fumbling into hto crowded and dimly bt cabin, and put hto band down, in the dark, on this asoond pooch. Mildly surprised. Greenwood, said, “WeQ, where'd he come from 7”
Greenwood waa born in Coal- town, ROck island county, lU. Ito came to Washington as a child. Hla parents farmed, but he went into the lumber mills, snd finally retired on an old age penriop of $17J16 a month. That has been upiwd to 333—minus |7 because pays no rent
Greenwood's parents came from Yorkabire, England. H e/says,
" “Mother was a violinist. Studied with that guy, Paganajy Italy.' (Pagbnlnl to you.) Greenwood has inherited some of th e / talent so be's accumulated acme 15 "mu- siks”rfimmuse the pinners he’s going to save.
PtoM And Obgaa la noasThen's a inukU piano and a
Mweti organ crowded into the boat He likes to mt on eunny mornings, ‘think of the Lord's larger scheme,
ound out ‘The Battle of Armagaffdoo'' as he watclies the glint XX sun on mud flatsi Hto tre l^ to reoognixable, but Um toft
Just comes down where It a down mi the keys.
But there to a rakish deer's head ''em the organ which servep audience. The deer’s left horn hangs down over one eye, but the other eye to kind. And somehow the crown of paper roses on ths d4|er doesn’t seem <mt of place.
Greenwood has. tried to give patient years to teaching people that “everything In the Bible to emt to save jrau." He grew pretty disturbed to 1333 and 1938 because of the world's love of itoshpots. He felt oertoin the big flood waa Just aroiind the corner, and ha aent out warnings. He got a flood of mail from sU over the world. But'no flood.
SSnie reporter telephoned long dletflhce from London, and Greenwood bad to scamper down mud
I .flats to a neighboring saw mill to ' "rooelve the call.
Talked half an hour,” he aayaBxMhMs Swedtoh CBpplag
“Sweden, too," he prtos iooae some' thumbtacks from the cabin wan aad exhlhito a Ssredlah nswa- papar clipping about the “ark."

a flexible ceiling on wages proposed today by Chairman
Thokiaa (D-Utah) of the Sehate Labor committee.
Thomas, who often expresses administration vIswa aald he thought a voluptary sUbUlsatlOn of wages on An equltabto basis would do much, toward quieting the current cOngresstonal wrangling over the 40-h(nir week and overtime pay.
The committee chairman told reporters he believed a plan c<(Uld be worked out to peg wages gm - er Jly at present levels, with ad- Jiwtmcnto provided for low-pay groups or Indivlduaia. He su^ geeted that a general board then could review war Industry wages about every ' eight months, and order increases to mmpensste for any advance In living costs.
To JNsoom Whole Problem President Roose/elt has tot it
be known that he wUI discuss the whole problem of the cost of living in a meAsAge to Oonmss, to be followed by a radio talk on the subject next Monday night.
Congressional leaders, expecting no specific recommendations for new legislation, said they thought the preeldent now had •uffdent authority to order a general freezing of prices as • brake against inflation. While Mr. Roosevelt has said the queatien of wage controls also was under study, few expected any. drastic proposals along this line.
It was indicated a major part of the president's message would be devote.*, to the elimination of excessive war profits, probably through taxation, and to the limitation of management salaries and bonuses.
Senator" Connelly (D-Tex) told the Senate yesterday, in obtaining consent to delay argument ijitil April 28 on his war plant sMsure bill, that the president had given assurances the forthcoming message would deal with all phases of tl I living cost problem, “including labor."
Expressing the hope that Mr. Roosevelt would advocate- a program x)f over-all control of prices w),ges. Salaries and bonuses. Sens* tor Pepper (D-Fla. said anythlns short of that was not likely to satisfy those who have been dC' mending wartime Testrictions on union activities.

"N are we going to permit mAnage- ment to pay huge salarfm and benuses to exrouUves or stand by idly while excessive^proBts are made out of government tracts.'

Device Douses Lights in Raid
Radio Ref^iver Tuni Constantly to L^al Station for Oper^ion.New Haven, April 21—(F)
The development of a device for turning off lights at the start of an sir raid at- the Nme time that radio stations go off the air was annouhced yesterday by two Yale instructors in electrical engineering, Froderick Brooks of Austin, Tex., and Herbert Krauss of Topeka, Kas.
A high frequency,radio receiver is kept tuned constantly to a local radio station. When tbe atation goea off tbe air, aa it would if enemy ptonea wem reported approaching, a switch in the receiver automatlcsUy turns off lights. At the "all clear” , when the station comes back on the air, the lights automatically go on again.
Would Work for Entlm aty -The device would work. Brooks
and KrauM said, for q single Ugl op*for an entim city.
A variation of the device, Wori ing independently of a i^ rqdlo ■tation, mquirea a hlgh;i^^ue>ncy sender and a receiver
For example, a merchant 'at bis home in the subum could throw a switch on a sender at; hie bedside and a switch in the receiver in his stom' ^downtown would ex- tinguirii jught lights/Neon signs, etc.

Order Halting Unnec*essary Construction Still Leaves Gi«at Prospects Ahead.
^ ' By James Marlow And William Ftnkerton
Washington, April 21.-^(Wide World)—America's buDdera find themselves today in the midst of
112,000,000,000 year—biggeat in the history of the construction industry.
A War Production Board order halting all unnecessary construction atUl'leaves the industry with ito greatest prospects ahead of it. In this, construction la one of the more fortunate Industries—although individual firms are bound to suffer from the stoppage of building for ordinary civilian pur- pooes.
Expect Pace To Qutokea W hafs more, the pace ,of buUd-
ing is expected to quicken. The rate of construction during the last half of the year will be greater than at present.
Aa a rough estimate, moat the year's 31.000,000,000 of acntlal building already been done. The rest of the year will be devoted entirely tm^ neceasairy work, of which ro^hly 310,000,- 000,000 will be relat^ to the war efffl^ This would cover In addiUno to military toatallatlons .and war- pfoductlom'ptonts, housing for defense wpricers, highways and public utHitlea to meet defense-center/needs, snd farm additions
essary to the drive for In- reased food production.Some 31i000,000,000 of easential
clvIUan conattiiction'makes up the refit of the year’s expected building.
Construetion of cantonments, air
fields. Naval stations and Other’S toUltsry fsclUtlea will reach near' 344)66,000,000 thto year— mot* than Boutds the volume' In 194L Indua^ql snd commercial build*: ings, mtotlY to expand the n»- lion’s Outpiit of war goods, xrfll Uke sb ^ t 32,900,000.000 aa against 32,300,000,000 last year.

are specially timefy, becatue they take ihto^ccount the atoppags (ff non-eastntial building,', which was ordqi^ recently by WPB.

Gn larger unauthorised Jobs— cornmerctol, induatrisl, recreation* at institutional, highway, roadway, sub-surface and utilities, whether public or private in financing—the cost'lim it to 35,006.
This order puts the squeeze on the stnall residential builder, esps- ctolly in areas Which are not booming with war business, Just sir WPB has put the squeeze on other industries it considered .non' eased- . ttol, and wiO on still others. Such firms face, the alternative of converting somehow to war work, or . getting out of business.

But a resoluUon which did con- cem~American policy after the war waa adopted. ..It reads as tol- lowa:- . i
"Wa r^ im that after this war the reapohaibility of the nation will, not be circumscribed within the teiTltorial Umito of tha United States, that our nation has an obligation to assist in bringing about imderstanding, comity and t»- opention among the nations of the world in order that our own liberty may be preserved and tha blighting and destructive gfoci ea of war may not again be forced upon us and upon the free and peace-loving peoples of the earth.”
To the ordinary American, perhaps, it -seems only comnwn aenaa for this nation to do its beat, once thto war is won, to prevent a now and greater war twenty yean from now. But there ara elementa within the Republican, party to whom, thto does not seem logical or wise; they would win this war, and immediately begin the same proceaa which helped sabotage'the peace altar the last war.

The raid on Japan gives tha Axis a sudden propaganda and morale need for retaliatory action. Whatever plana the Axis has for landing bomba- on American soil will BOW be intenstfled and speeded; tha careful alining at possible military damage wlU now be leas Important than the psychological raasaurance that news of any kind of raid upon Amarlcaa soil would give the people of Japam

Every time the Cox hearing has hit a high spot—In other words touched some point where the curiosity of tha state might naturally want to proceed further—It has come up against a closed b«^ .
‘Tha rsason the book to closed, it must have become incraasingly obvious to all participants in the aftdir, to that tha preM t proceeding is not properly ahd perhaps was never really Intandad to ba, a trial of Oommtoahmer Cox, but of individuals who operated under him. '
n . to a trial of abmnteaghosts, who are not aceasad, aad who are hat prodnesd, and who «o not tastily.
Several important tnmds'in the testimony have conto to a sudden halt because th* one man who could clarify them, the deputy commissioaer who retired under crltlctoni, who npw draws hto ra- tironiant pension toom tha state and holds a lucrative Job out in the west to .boot,' is not hare to tall why he made certain decisions and adopted certain -poUclea.
Ckwnmlssioner Cox,. to be sura, has accepted responsibility for tha acts of hto undmilngs. He has, ia, fact,'bluntly stated that ha reposed his trust in them, aad that be does not regret doing so.
So long as the ehargoi the srenmtiena are Isvob him, SB the basis hs loopoasibls for overythlag happened ba Ms ‘ that la. perhaps, the snly for him to ads|B. In fact,' it Is the coarse at dtfcase forced nw on him by the prment nnrmi aatnre of Gw charges.Some of the acts ba to balng

‘Thus toe'Republican party can win and become a great force for liberal, enlightened government,” WlUkie asserted,

Concerning proposed lengthening of toe 40^hour work week, Gen- eral Knudseii commented:

R icb Storehouse P ou ring Stream o f Strategic Minerals.^ and Cto|mb b to 'A rsen als.
Rio Da Janeiro, Brasil, April 31 —(Wide World)—Latin-America, a' rich storehouse of raw materials, today is pouring a stream of strategic minerals apd agricuItuiA prxrtucta into toe arsenals of the United Nations.
The Axis, which once_. drew .heavily upon these resources, first waa r^uced to a driblet by the blockade and now Is cut off, while toe United States and ita allies, by control of toe sea and war-time trade’ agreements, enjoy' a mono- plly of oil the rubber, tin, manganese, chrome, mica, tungsten, copper, diamonds and lead that these,countries con produce.
Maay Match .SnppUee Last Item for item, many of these
products match the supplies lost in Malaya, the Dutch E>uit Indies, toe Philippines’ and other areas held by the Axis. In a long war they may well supply the extra slnews'needed to win.
But nxMt, of South. America’s mineral resources ore Iwked in -toe jungles and mountains of inocessi- ble. regions. The same shortages' which creite toe demand for them interfere with obtaining the machinery, toe railroads and toe shipping to dig them out and transport them to toe factories.
Net Unmixed Blessing This new-found demand for
South America’s long-neglected and over-looked riches is not on unmixed blessing of prosperity.
This ia a day when first things come first, and many of toe chief products of South America—meat, wheat, fruits, coffee—are allowed to accumulate In toe 'warehouses or rot on toe wharves while a'vall- able shipping la devoted to war materials. As a result, painful shifts in toe economy of many countries are necessary.
All over South America the price of living is soaring aa toe textiles and manufactured products which these countries Import grow scarce and almost prohibitive by reason of reduced shipping spMe, priorities and high transport and Insurance rates.
From Cape Horn to the Rio Grande, agricultural explorers and prospectora are seeking easily tapp^ rertmrcca to supply especially toe rubber, the chrome, toe manganese that is needed In to^ war effort. Newly blossomed government and private agencies seek priorities for the machinery and railroads needed to get toe materials out.
gl0O,OOO,0OO credit for Brazn The United States Export-Im
port Bank has arranged a 8100;*^ 000,000 cradit tor Braxll, part a ti which will be used to estaMiifii a* project for developing BraxOtan' rubber resources in toe AmaXcMt'-' Jungles.
The expectation la that 60.000 to ' 70,000 tons of rubber will be piro- ' duced annually. But this is only a drop In toe bucket compared wltls'' the hundreds at thousands of toos needed to put rubber tir^on Anaff trucks and guns. \
Collection of the product' fro n toe scattered, wild-growing traaa ' Will' not be easily organised.
From 4,000^000 to 5,000,000 wiUlv rubber trees are spotted, acroaa Panama’s, seven provinces, tba government estimates. As many os half of these may be in concentrated areas, many of them on abandoned plantations now choked-' - with two or more decades of- Jun-' gle growth. ' - ^
United States experts will determine how many of toera can ba reclaimed for pr^uction of wildy (C astilla) rubber.
Long Range Program- A long-range program also la
under -way to develop cultlvptirt , (hevea) rubber. Two governme^/ experimental nurseries ara dsval- oping high-yleldlng, diseasefTestaU ant rubber strains, and a Good- - year experimental farm In fha,' Gatun lake area haa a sunUar ob-' JecOve..
Costa Rica already haa a Goodyear rubber plantation, and in Honduras rubber plant seed# already have been sent to the northern coast where there Is sonM wild rubber growing.
Manganese, vital to 'prbduetlenof steels and light metals Impor- lanL in war pr^uctlon, is bidden in almort all the Central AnMri- can republics and ita supply la being Increased in various ways.

The claah between the lawyers occurred After Cox had aaaerted the Highway Department made ‘htaady progress and great pro* graaa” under hia administration Until the middle of 1S41, and added:
*Tt hie been one of the bitter regrets of my life to see that prog* rase retarded last autumn and to see it reversed last winter."
Oon^f had objected to the lat* ter porttdn of CX»'s statement, ooBtanding that it had no coonec* tlon with the i^tiivee preferred agalnat the oonrimUsloner.
Inm ply, Berry asserted that aaany peo^e. Including Wmaelf, hHlaved there was a "motive" be* -hind the investigation.' *T contend," he said, "there is a ■wtive which is material in back
. of aU this matter."■ The lawyer asserted that things
In the department were “going all right un^ last fall," and main* talned that Oox was entitled to show what adnUnistrative changes had been made and what resulted from those changes.
Earlier in his statement he had .said: -
“liong enough .after I took of* lice (in 1938) for me to have appraised the acUvities of the Highway Department. I publicly stated that through increases in'our effi* dcncy that I considered possible, we could save, throughout the de-
. partment a million dollars a year."Saving Aim AceompUab^
This aim, the commlaaioner said, was acoompUah^ last summer “by more etfleient and economical maintenance methods, by more dareful selection of roads to be im*?iroved so as to make our expendi- ures on those roads having the
greatest possible utUity to the public, by careful Selection of rhe type of road to be buUt in each instance."
As a result of theae poUcies, Cox taatlfled. the public pow. receives ’•an, additional m llUonv.^lars Worth of value from a t^ rs -a i* -pcndlture."

The department, he aaid, has completed 103 bridges of 20-foot span or over (o f which the attorney general hiw criticised two), plus a very large lumber of small bridges and culverts. Including tha 1,800-fob* Housatonie river bridge. Other aocomplialiments cited were:
AooempSahnMsta CitedFifty-seven miles of four-lane

‘TIm past three years," Cox said, “have been unprecedented years tr their accomplishments for Connecticut highways and Connecti'riit motorUta.
'Tt is not easy to overhaul a machine while, it is in very rapid motion. Nevertheless, despite the extent of our programs, aubstan- tlal progress has been mads, xmtil recently. In the improvement of our organixatlon and in r raising the efficiency of our operatlOng."
De Net Exist NowCox referred to Conditions at
tacked in the Hurley, report of 1937 as having existed m 1938 whan he took office, but, he added, "they do not exist now.”
The Hurley report bad described ths department as "woefully dls- organixed," with lack of coordination, with no cooperation between the bureaun especially betweth sections in tha aante bureaus.

"The next step In war training at the local Trade school, will be training of women to take over the many Jobe which will be open to them > in the mechenicel field," stated John Ek:hmelian, director of the local Trade echool, as he addressed e gathering at the Retail Merdhantf' luncheon meeting thla afternoon.'
''The government has stated that there will soon be jobs (n the many war plant! for some 70 million men. It must he remembered that there are only 68 million men who are fit for work In these plants, end out of them some nine millions will be taken for the Army.".
Mr. Echmalien then continued to show how extensive a program hia school Is undertaking. The Trade echool ia running both night and'day end the speaker declared that actually grooves were wont into the floors aa a r e ^ t of the many persona wslking.^n them.
Over 1,400"There are l,4(M^ungBters who
have been trained at the local school over m lest year ahd a half." wenr on Mr. Echmalain, "and all of theae are now fitted into aome^b which they were trained for. Even during the recent depruslon, about 82 per cent of the boys who were graduated from the echool soon found Jobe for them- eelves, along the aame line for which they trained."
Mr. Echmallan likened education to one of the modern pin ball machines which are so prominent theae daya. He atated that it was Uka putting a nlOkel into the future, end when ell of the lights ere lighted, you are handed a diploma, your reward for the years which you have spent in securing that education.
Eflldeney la Educatloa \ There must be efficiency in education aa well aa in burineaa these daya," contlnuad Mr. iEIcha-' naalUm, "and men must fitted ft ■ th! numerous Job(. which await them. Mechanlpal work ia not glamoroua but it la something tangible, and it ia worthwhile. Many of the' odern boya are losing sight of |he honor which comes from herd work end they ha.'e lost sight'q;: the value of good cref'eamenship,
"Wo are now doing tome feat training st the local school, trying to fit the person 4rith a few hours of experience vHiich will enable him to go out and a,iply for a war J^; While tM* Is worthwhile at tha present Dm*, there are other Jobe which gre still aa Important, and will be doubly available at the termln»-\ tion at the war.
“ After the last war,” went on Mr. Eehmulian, "there,Were many ao’ditra who came to the local Trade school to try* and learn a trade. H>e same thing la going to happen again, and don't think that those who ere Interested in Lducatlon aren't thinking of it ”
"A t . the present time, labor la almost drained, end we are training all kinds of men. Within a very short time women will be called upon to. take over tbe many Jobs which have to be done. If thia war Is to be brought to a eucceasful termination.
The speaker waa Introduced by Herbert Swanson, chairman ot the Retail Herchantx Bureau, who also Introduced tbe next* apeiUcar, Eugene Sullivan, of tha N ; T „ N. H. A H. R. R., who substituted for tbe scheduled speaker, John Murphy of the imme concern. His topte was o f great Interest to the local mer- chSnta aa it concerned the dlacon- tinustion of the pick up and delivery service: Hr. Sullivan waa brought to egplala why thla aer'vice was stopped.
Waa Not PrafttabtoMr. SuSlvaB aaid:. "Tha up
and deliver ‘ in this araBxin hopes that Ireould jregain soma of the service vrhleh was lost through trucking. From tha first It would seem that It did not pay for the rillroad to oonUaue the pick up service, but It bad .hopes It would pay. However, another survey wsa Conducted In 1988 and again in 1940, and both timss wae found that tt was not piofttsble to the railroad.
"For thla reason it waa decided that the aervice would be dlscon- ttiiued. None can say that a good test was not madd to insure that the venture would pay as alx years la a long time to conduct a test. Mut figures did not lie, and there you have the reason why it waa stopppad."
The, merchants, who were present could not believe that bu^eaa had not ineteaacd In town due to the Increase In population, and they queatioaed Mr. Sullivan on Uiis:
Merdmato BlameleaaIn answar, Mr. Sullivan aaid, T t
waa not the faidt of the local merchants that the aervlcs showed no ineresse. I t was the fault of the manufacturara of town. -They did not respond to the aervice. Moft of the bustneas which was gained by tbe pick up and delivery venture was the "balloon" luggage ,type, which eras not worth trans- poiting by the poundage. However, ahoidd tha town evar show Indications that thla aarvtoe would pay, then is no doubt that the reil- ro ^ would reinstate tbf aeiVice."
Again a diaenaMon was held on tha mattsr, but thsra was nothing that ths loesl merehanta could do about ths mattar, tt was decided. Howevd, Mr. SuUlvan offered to obow Sguras te them again, at aeme future meeting, to' prove that the pick up 'and delivery service was

Brevard,,N. C., April 21—(ffV--' Approximately 300 map battled a ; vicious fire in tbe Big .East torl$ section of Pisgah National forest A last night.
Their previous efforts to keep ' the flames within a blocked end ■ raked area were opposed by rising' ; winds that soon carried the fin along a 15-mile front.
Crews were rapidly summoned from industrial plants, Brevard college andi WPA roUa. Volunteer! were enrolled on- tbe streets and hurried to the scene, approxlmato- ly 12 toll** from here.
Bolldlnge Apparently Safe The fire raced throiigh thr
Cherry cove and Bear pen sections to the scenic pink beds area, where 'thousands of tourists go each year to see the colorful *ho<l- odendroa and laurel. Much of tha . pink beds section had burned last night and District Ranger J. B. Fortin doubted poaeibiltty of aav- iiig the rest of the area. Although an estimated 2.000 acres had burn.-, ed over, buildings and dwellii apparently were safe.
Bear and deer probably eaca(. Fortin said: but he believed (mail game died in great number!..
Smaller fires were scatteM in thia aection and smoke enshrouded Brevard. Chndera fell on the streets. ■

in the American League, toe Red Sox dropped a 10-4 decision tb to* Washugton Senators but clung to tb* 11 by half a game ever the New York Yankees and to* St. Louis Browns.
’The Yanks missed their chance to pull even arith th* Red Sox when their scheduled tussle with the Athletics at Philadelphia aras
; postponed by conditions which must ramaln a mlUtary secret. Similar oondttloiu poeslbly saved tha Red Sox further embarrass- mant, ainc* a second game with tb* Nats had to be called off.
On top of that, to* Cleveland In- h^ans nuned tha S t Louis Broams'[ to a ce o of gaining ths top spot by

shoulilhnv* been Indignant if those Red Bockers had balked about playing yesterday in adverse weatoer, even if there was a crowd of 14,000 in the Stands demanding a ball game. But the bioya secretly didn’t mind the call to play ball because they had vlslona of teeing off and fattening'tneir batting averages on their old pai, Jack Wilson.
But WUiion—who. cou|||n't get ^yon* out in a Boston uniform (flot even himself out of trouble on to* pitching mound)’—wan knocking toe bats out of their hands pll afternoon. Jack held our boys to a mfaSIy five hits. Someone should call his attention to toe fact that this ia April, not September. He usually reserves those performances for that month.
It waa Just the old, sad story of toe Red Sox castoff coming back to haunt his former playmates. Ever since, Tom Yawkey took command of the club his castoffs have c(Hue back to belt the ball out of th* park or to stop Yawkey*s team from doing to* aanje.
Stan Spence, who waa shipped down the river to Washington in th* same deal, proved that, too, by Stepping up nnd slapping out a two-run single which rescued a pair of runs and broke a 4-4 tie. The Senators went on from that point to sew up the haU game with Wilson bccomlng.lnvincibl*.
There wnn some concern here when Spence was shipped sway. He always Impressed as a pretty fair batter who would be good outfield insurance. n ils view was strengthened when the. Sox cut loose Johnny Wela],,the outfielder obtained for him in the trade.

Alsab’s Rider Says Colt Can Win Derby
Basil James Confident | That His Mount Will Top Derby Field on ' May 2 at the Downs.
V-------- • iNew York, April 21 — Basil |
James contends Alaab didn’t like the deep and cuppy Havre de Grace track and promises to boot th* record-wrecking 2'^ear-old champion of 1841 home flrst in toe Kentucky Derby, May 2., Meanwhile, a number of oamers
and traliiera are Just u ' well pleased that (Jolchis waa not nominated for the Run for the Rosea
ImedUtely after Colchis, the supposed sprinter, had come from precisely nowhere to grab the $13,350 winning end in toe (toesa- peake Stakes, J. H. McCoole, who brings Requrated to hand, wanted to know if the Robert Sterling C6u k standard bearu w u eligible for the Derby.
Advised that Colchis w u not going to Louisville, Blackie Mc- CkMle expressed great reUef. Were he huded for the Blue Grass, the gangling the gelded bay son of Happy Argo-Ancona might further reduce the Derby fielA
Unlike AUab knd Requested, Colchis—pronounced Colkla — is not a bargain basement steed. He w u fashlimabiy aired at Upper- vUle, Va., ahd foaled at Sagamore Farm in Maiyiand. 3 Bterllag Claric, a brother of Ambrose, with whom he doesn’t hit it off well, la a Virginian who haq bred and raced horses for 20 yehra./cn ark doesn’t ^name a colt for the Derby ualeu he is really outstanding u a Juvenile. Uke most other practical "racing men, he reafleu the Dert>y is run a a too early date.. He considers naming a Colt for th* Derby dangerous for th* thoroughbred and unfair to' to* trainer. And over-anxious tratesr is tempted to rush hia charge. CUrk can wait with a horse.
So you’ll next bear from Colchis 'In the Pimlico Preakneas, May 8. \ Though Colcbla had dead-but- ed. and split two decisions with A lub, and had never been worse than toird in 15 atarts, tha players sent Mra. Albert Sabato’s pet away at odda-on, with toe ceriu and grey filer he w u Conceding six. pounds at 8 to 1 .
This on Colchis’ home grounds. They liked th* aray A lub closed
ground on Colchis in th* Cheu- Trial. What they didn’t
know w u that Georg* W oolt loet bis whip at th* three-eighths pole and had Colchis pulled up at the finish.
Racing men couldn’t au a Happy Argo of clau going on* mile and a sixteenth, but Trainer Vince Mara and Woolf..knaw Colchis raced better when be cam* from behind, had a pre-arranged plan to drive him from the rear of the pace in the (?heu peake Btaku.

Nigel puUed up. "Could jroii tell me if we’re on the tight road t o . . . ."
Then he Mopped and hU voice took on a note of relief.
"Well If tt isn’t you!"*Ts it?" Myre Mack smfled.
Michael and his younger slater straightened and turned expect- OLOy toward the other car. Tbeie was an awkward moment in which everyone looked at everyone Mae without quite knowing where Introductions should b e ^ .

"M y!" ahe murmured, gaalng at the.other car and the other girl.‘What a awell outfit!". She includ- eu the convertible. Fay and her escort in the expressive atatosaent. Fay looked cool aad d e ^ y beautiful In blue linen, her hair gleaming copper ia the sun and blowing free.
Peggy, on the other hand, lopked decidedly hot. Hcd .hands were grimed from helping her brother ar i ahe had forgotteh that she had wiped the baat from her face with dirty fingers. It didn’t seem to bother her. With engaging frank- ness aba was s ta r ^ at Nigel Monkhouse. obviously wondering how much be was involved with this beautiful piece o f :nature*a handiwork aad whether it would be fun or hard work to tiy and pry. him loose.

’ ’Yes,’* smiled Peggy with a pleased air, - holding out grimy fingers. Sh4 looked down at her

Everyone laughed. Introdue-. ttona were competed but some- kow Peggy’s entrance had stolen the ahow. Nigel Monkhouae glane- ed eeveial times at this odd child who had kept up a-stream of chatter all the rest o f the way up to Ferdy’s place.

Latest developments in campaign to obtain speedy passage a t Waahington of- H. R. 1036. which would make the Townsend Plan a law, will be explained to Townsenditm in Manchester on April 23rd, 8:00 p. m., at tbe Y. M. C. A. with John D. EHUott as principal speaker.
The meeting will be one of 186 similar gatherings In the eastern states directed from Townsend National Headquarters In Chicago as part of Dr. Francis. E. Townsend'* natlonBl expansion campaign to establish his plan of pensions for all persons over 60 years of age.
This effort Is being redouMed In view of the coming congressional elections. -Success of candidates In many districts, it is claimed, will hinge on their a ttitude toward federal old-age pen-, ■ions, and in view of President Roosevelt’s recent statement that he wpuld sign any pension bill paamd by Congress, Townsendites are demanding immediate pam- age of their plan.
Townsienditea and sym pathlurs in the ranks of small buslneas and labor number several million, and all will be urged to vote only for candidates pledged to support 0I4- age pensions.
Topics to be discussed a t the coming meeting wdU include legislative actlvltiee a t Waahington and the two petition campaigns now being waged; one on behalf of a conatitutipnal amendment embodying the Townsend Plan, and the other to urge congreae- OMn to aid in obtaining a hearing for the plan.
