He is not only my favorite but the favorite of all the kids in our school, He stops cars just to let us cross and cares for our safety as if we were his children. He does not allow jay walking or crossing without his consent. As our school street is very busy he has to take exfea caution for our safety. He takes special care of the smaller children by helping» them across the street. He doesn't allow our playing ball in the street. He always wears a smile.

Y.- THURSDAY, .OCTOBER 7.1937. PRICE THREE CENTS NEM MEETING CASS Washington Is Believedl The Likely Choice For Conference LONDON, Oct. 7-(P)-| Britain and France began to- day a preliminary exchange of views with the Unitedl States on convocation of a| hine-power conference in an effort to curb the Sino-Jap- anese war, with the possi- bility that the conference will be held in Washington. Checred By U. S. Officials would not say whether a flat request had been made to hold the nine-power parley in Washington, but they did point to suitability of the American capital which in 1922 was the scene of negotiation for the nine-power treaty, guaranteeing territorial in- tegrity of China, There were indications that Washington had been asked whether in its opinion, the nine- power parley should be held there. The U. S. state department's formal condemnation of Japan wa regarded as virtual accept- ance of the league of nations in- vitation to-signatories of the nine power Washington pact to\ con- sider ways of making good their guarantee of the territorial in- tegrity of China. President Roosevelt's call Tues- day for concerted action against aggressor nations and his state de- partment's declaration yesterday against Japan were construed as a partial shouldering of the Ori- ental trouble, permitting Britain, with France, to concentrate on a civil war in Spain, Pressure On Italy Their ominously unclarified threat of \decisive action\ was held over Italy unless Premier Mussolini replied quickly to the week-old invitation to confer with France and Britain on withdrawal of foreign soldiers from the Span- ish peninsula. A curt communique, issued aft- er yesterday's long conference be- tween Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden and French Ambassador les Corbin, said: \The two government have agreed on the desirability of re- ceiving an early reply from Italy.\ Informed sources said at the time that Prance and Britain were, in effect, giving Rome 24 hours to respond to the invitation. There was a growing conviction in authoritative quarters that a the crossing by Hewitt school, I am now twelve years old and I go to South Side high school, but I -miss him very much. ,. \One day Ross. saw .a boy whom he knew and asked him stern display of Anglo-French \force\ might be the only way to get- It Duce's blackshirt legions out of Spain. 'Today informed persons were inclined -to discount the sugges- tion that a 24-hour ultimatum had been given to 'Mussolini. 'They said the 24 hours was mentioned merely as an approximate period of grace and not a definite time limit. ELIZABETH G, SEAMAN SUCCUMBS AT-HOME showdown in the European crisis | that grew out of the 14-months-old | SCH BLG Pu oF 2 COUNTIES \'We Don't Know,\ Says King To Questions On New Angles Detectives today were up a blind alley in their Nassau inves- tigation of the Hollis Woods \red circle\ double murder, as Inspec- tor Harold R. King, head of Nas- sau detectives, who are co-oper- ating with Queensroperatives in the probe, summed 'up the results of days of painstaking investiga- tion with the statement, \We don't know.\ All developments today in the killing of Lewis Weiss, 20, and pretty Frances Hajek, 19, in their parked car late Saturday night or early Sunday morning, were neg- ative, (Among the fanciful theo- ries, put forward by balked in- vestigators, newspapers and oth- ers connected officially and unot- fcially with the case which were exploded by the Nassau detective chief today were the following: The- eccentric ser- geant, sought as a suspect, has nothing to do with the case. The 23-year-old youth report- ed yesterday to be in custody as a suspect, is being held by the Nassay burglary squad for steal- ing & car in Bellmore. He has absolutely.no connection with the | red circle slayings. Inspector King knows of no ar- | rest of a 43-year-old suspect in or about Syosset. In the meantime, the detective | chief said, he is continuing to co- operate with a squad of six Queens detectives who are canvas- | sing every inn, roadhouse and beer | parlor between Mineola and | Queens Village to find the place | where Weiss and Miss Hajek drank the beer which toxicologists discovered in their bodies in a post mortem examination. None of these places has produced even | the suspicion of a clue, and none of the bartenders or proprietors has even partially recognized photographs of the red circle vic- tims, he said. Another of the myriad stories which have been circulated from numerous sources had police look- ing for a man in a national guard uniform. A truck driver is said to have told police that Weiss and Miss Hajek's car stalled in Hemp- stead, at ~1:30 o'clock Sunday morning, and that they asked him for a push, In the car at the time, he said, was a mean wearing a soldier's uniform. He is reported to have pointed to dents in the rear of the Weiss car, which he said were made by his truck's bumper. Detectives, circulated in the crowd which attended funeral services for Miss Hajek in Queens Village yesterday, on the chance that the murderer who shot Weiss and the girl, and the savagely stabbed Miss Hajek, might have been led back to the funeral by sadistic curiosity. Short Christian Science rites were held for Weiss yesterday, TWO WOMEN INJURED Both Able To Go Home After Crash In Freeport Two women are to- recovering day from injuries suffered when the cars in which they were rid- looked 60 years ago. 55 AWARD TOD Picture Of, Parsonage At!

A lazy northwest wind stroked across the field, how- ever, with every promise of blow- ing away the graphite clouds by‘ 1:30 p. m., game time, One down with their \meal ticket,\ Carl Hubbell, punched full of holes in a riotous first game which saw the Yankee gunners combine breaks and power with Lefty Gomez's pitching to romp to an 8-1 decision, the Giants' hopes definitely rested on the gangling Melton, the game's most sensational young rookie of the season who won 20 games and lost but nine. Arrayed against him was one of the strong arm men of the American league, Charles (Red) Ruffing, whom the Giants trimmed in the first gante of the 1936 fall classic. Ruffing, at the peak of his form, was rated the favorite in the duel at 3 to 2 with the support of his powerhouse. Colonel Bill Terry altered his lineup to meet the. righ handed slants of the Yankee big Red, re- placing Hank Leiber in center- field: with the speedy Lou Chiozza, who batted in fifth position.
