Y., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1938 PRICE THREE CENTS DUKE, WALLY MAY RETURN TO ENGLAND Paris — (AP) — The pos- sibility that the Duke and Duchess of Windsor might es- tablish a home in England soon after Jan. I was fore- cast by the couple's friends today as the ultimate result of their friendly meeting with the Duke and Duchess of Glouces- ter. As the royal brothers' rec- onciliation talks came to an end, it was said the former King Edward Vm and his sec- ond younger brother had dis- cussed Windsor's permanent return to England with his American-horn Duchess. The date was expected to depend on public reaction to their pro- jected Christmas Day visit with the royal family in ton- don. The plan, said by friends to have been proposed by the British Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlain, would, however, bind Windsor to exclude the Duchess, the former Wallis Warfield, front his official duties as member of the royal family. They would remain away from London during the social season, it was reported, lest the Dnchess' participation in various functions raised knotty questions of precedence and rank. •Windsor, returning to the homeland he left after his.ab- dication Dec. 10, 1936, would assume some of the royal fam- ily's duties from his busy brothers. YOUTH TO FACE GRANDJURYIN FATAL SHOOTING Herkimer—(AP) — William H, Gates Jr.,' 19, of Wbitesboro, awaited today -the action of \the Herkimer County grand jury- in connection with the fatal' hunting Shooting of-Merle Bauer, 25, also of Whitesboro. Gates, arraigned yesterday on' a second degree manslaughter charge before Justice of the Peace George E. Graces, waived exam- ination, and was released in $2,- 600 bail to await the action of the grand jury. Bauer was shot last Tuesday near Old Forge when, State Troop- er John Mitrzyk said, a rifle car- ried by Gates discharged after he had stumbled. CONFECTIONARY INDUSTRY WAGE MINIMUM SET Albany—(AP)—An order estab- lishing a minimum weekly wage of $14 for 40 hours work and basic minimum hourly wage of 35 cents has been set up for women and minors in the confectionery indus- try in New York State. In announcing that the order be- comes effective Nov. 14, State In- dustrial Commissioner Frieda S. Miller, said that it would cover approximately 6,400 women and minors in 257 establishments. RFC LEADER SEES BUSINESS UPSWING Houston, Tex. — (AP) — Chair- man Jesse H. Jones of the Re- construction Finance corporation said today business had started an upward swing. \Washington is the clearing house of the nation on business information,\ he said, \and by statistical report, telegraph and telephone, we are hearing stories from every part of the country that point to a considerable up- turn.\ Asked specifically about the railroads, he commented their rev- enues were \picking up some.\ He added \those now in receiver- ship and many more will-need to have their capital structure reset thru reorganization. If this is to be done within a reasonable time, legislation will be necessary.\ Listen In ! PRESCOTT STATION CFLC Every Evening Except Sunday 6:15 P; M. (E.S.T.)

FDRBelieved Determined to Press Program Waihingto n— (AP)— President; .-. Roosevelt's -, ex- pressed views..on the outcome of • the congressional election led many politicians to con- clude today he would push the fundamentals of his New Deal program as vigorously as ever in the new congress. Interpret Remarks More of this opinion said the President's remarks at his press conference yesterday indicated he believed he could do so without serious political repercussions de- spite the fact that the Democratic party lost,heavily in Tuesday's voting^ They,'.pointed to \these statements:. First, the President said he. did not expect 'Democrats critical of his administration to combine •with Republicans to block his leg- islative proposals. Second, he said he had expect- ed the Republicans to capture many Democratic seats.\ He had predicted. Tie said, that they -would win seven Senate seats and 65 House seats; as it turned out they •won eight seats in the Senate and at least 81 in the House. Thirds he said he thought the re- sults did not constitute a threat to liberal government. This latter expression, some pol- iticians said, suggested that Mr. Roosevelt believed there had been no. sweeping change in popular support for the policies of his ad- ministration. A contrary view was ex- pressed by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. In a statement, it in- terpreted the elections re- sults as giving a \go slow sig- nal\ to Congress and said this should he \reassuring to bus- iness.\ The chamber predicted a pickup in business activity this month. ^ <s>- BESUFECI UPPERCUI Danville, Itf.-^fAP) •— 'Fred LeCIafre has a broken nose— the result of a punch from the fist of the same Fred Le- Claire. A large chunk of coal Le< Clair was lifting broke sud- denly, causing an accidental right to the nose. -$> TAX BILL? Washington — (AP) — Sen- ator Connally (D-Tex), a mem- ber of the Senate Finance Committee, predicted, today that the next Congress would pass no general tax; bill. . Improving, business con- ditions should increase federal revenues and make tax revi- sions unnecessary, Connally said. He predicted, however, the reenactment of the so- called \nuisance*' taxes many of which expire next year. These taxes'include such lev- ies as that on theater tickets. The Texas senator said he believed, too, that in the long run Congress would be forced to increase tax rates on in- comes in the middle brackets and to consider lowering ex- emptions. JITTERHOGS Des Moines, la.—The Iowa ball- room operators association has turned thumbs dotvn on jitterbug dancing—for business rather than esthetic reasons. \One jltterbugging couple takes up enough room for five ordinary dancing couples, and drive out the more conservative class of dancers,\ said one association of- ficial. MADDENED OWDS STORM CARDINAL'S HOME ANGLO-NAZI RELATIONS THREATENED London—-(AP) — British resentment at Germany's wide- spread campaign against Jews threatened today to halt Prime Minister Chamberlain's labor- ious efforts to forge a lasting peace in Europe. The British government's swift reaction to the burning and loot- ing of Jewish property in Berlin and other German cities indicated Britain might yet find occasion to quarrel with the nation she nar- rowly missed fighting two months ago. The indignation at the most re- cent anti-Jewish outburst in Ger- many will be focussed in Parlia- ment Monday when Major Clem- ent R. Attlee, labor party leader, asks the government for informa- tion on the attacks. It was believed certain that dis- cussion of Germany's colonial claims—the theory problem which Chamberlain proposed to tackle— would be seriously hindered by the latest example of Germany's treatment of her own \minority\ problem. KINCPEN TOMISSFAIR London — CAP) — The visit of •King^George. -and. QueenJElizabeth to the United States next jsprlng\ is likely to be confined to a stay in Washington, it was said in usually reliable quarters. There was said to be little likeli- hood of.their majesties going to New York and its world fair be- cause the invitation they accepted, that of President Roosevelt, was a personal one to visit him in •Washington. Pastor Reports Plate Passing in Reverse* Pays Dividends Walton—(AP)—The collection plate of the First Methodist Church, which its pastor, the Rev. Grant Robifflson recently \passed in reverse,\ has already started to pay dividends, he reported today. His idea, which he carried out on Oct 30, was to give each mem- ber of the congregation $1 with the stipulation that it be Invested and the profits, with the original sum, to be returned to the church. In describing the plan a \great success,\ the pastor pointed to the example of Miss Martha Durrin who used heir dollar, he said, to purchase peanuts which she salted and then retailed for 10 cents a bag. Another member of the church, Ansel Dumond, the pastor said, had bought a dollar's worth of brussel sprouts—sold, them in a house to house canvass, and then repeated the process by re-investing the profits. At the same time, he reported that he hadi received offers from people in widely scattered sections of the natiton, all anxious to aid the church. Nazis Ban Jews From Theatres, Concert Halls -Berlin—(AP)—Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebells, in his ca>\city as president of the Reich culture chamber, issued an order today forbidding the presence of Jews i n any movie house, theater, concert hall or at other public presentation. Goebbels lln Ws announcement Turkey's President PRE-WINTER INSPECTION OF AUTOS URGED Albany—(AP)—A pre-winter in- spection of automobiles was urged •by State Motor Vehicle Commis- sioner Charles A. Harnett today ns a precaution against the dangers of gas poisoning. \Carbon monoxide is generated in large volumes when fuel com- bustion in your car is incomplete or inefficient,\ the commissioner said, \and unless the exhaust sys- tem of your car is in good condi- tion, fumes are certain to seep In.\ He recommended keeping In good condition all motor adjust- ments Incidental to combustion, frequent inspection of the exhaust system and car body, riding with a window always partly open, and no Idling of the motor In a garage. TIME OUT! Boulder, Colo. — fAP) — Boy friends of Colorado \University co- eds have been puzzled by abruptly terminated telephone calls and even their girls wouldn't explain. But here's the reason, for * the \quickie\ calls. Faculty members thought there might be a connection between scholastic failures and lengthy tel- ephone conversations. So—there's now a five cent \tax\ on women's dormitory calls lasting more than five minutes. Typhoid Mary', Medical Prisoner, Dies at 70-But Not of Typhoid New York—(AP)—\Typhoid Mary\ Mallon, a pleasant-faced Irish cook whose plump body once was a breeding place of death for scores, is dead at 70. The nation's most famous \med- ical prisoner\ died yesterday on North Brother Island, where for a quarter century she had been iso- lated by health authorities as an innocent \carrier\ of typhoid fever germs. Ironically, it was paralysis and old age—not the billions of disease bacilli which made her a living test tube for death—that killed her. She was immune and never con- tracted the ailment she was be- lieved to have spread unwittingly to hundreds. Mary's story goes back to a series of fatal typhoid epidemics in wealthy Westchester and I)Ong Island neighborhoods at the start of the century. Repeated examinations of food and water failed to disclose the source of contagion. Then Dr. George A. Soper, sanitary engi- neer; discovered that a cook — a good cook, her employers always added — named Mary Mallon had served In many of the afflicted homes, and that the disease fol- lowed but never preceded her. •Unknowing that she herself was the agent of disaster, she fled to a new job as soon as signs of the disease appeared In a household. The frightened cook was exam- ined by 1907 by health authorities who found her robust body teem- ing with potential death. They Iso- lated her as \typhoid carrier No. 36,\ Mary tried to gain her freedom In 1909 in the New York Supreme Court but remained an unwilling \prisoner\ under a city charter provision empowering health of- ficials to detain Indefinitely any person suffering from an Infectious disease. In 1910 she was released. She permitted doctors to inject her with billions of additional germs in scientific experiments, but they had no apparent effect. She refused to submit to an In- testinal operation which surgeons said might have resulted in a \cure.\ Her health broke after a paralyt- ic stroke In 1932, and she became frail and white-haired.

Laporte, Ind.—(AP) — The bull in the china shop couldn't have done more damage than a 1,500-pound shorthorn which walked on the Pennsyl- vania railroad track near here. A freight train hit the bull and the engine and 15 cars were derailed. The bull was killed. Later, a passenger train on a detour around the wreck backed into an open switch and three cars turned over. No one was hurt.

Week-end trade reviews re- ported a pickup in consumer spending with holiday orders from wholesale quarters ex- panding substantially. Broadening of demand for gray goods was stressed, by es- timates from New York's Worth Street that mills, since election day, had sold approx- imately 35,000,000 yards of print cloths, or almost double the usual weekly output of this industry. Banking circles attributed anolher drop in commercial loans of about $8,000,000, as disclosed by the latest Federal Reserve summary, partly to the Tact that many corpora- tions are continuing to resort to capital flotations for new fi- nancing.

Legislative Leaders To Seek Dewey's Advice By WILLIAM W. TYLER Albany— (JAP) — The voice of Thomas E. Dewey will reverber- ate strongly in Republican con- ferences on the program of the 1939 legislature, to be controlled in both branches by the party for the first time since 1932. Probable leaders of both the Senate and Assembly said today that Republicans would heed—and seek—advice from the Manhattan prosecutor whose nearly success- ful gubernatorial campaign against Democratic Governor I»eh- man sparked the greatest resur- gence of Now York Republicanism in nearly two decades. Republicans will dominate the Senate, where they have not held the majority In six years, by 27 to 24, while retaining control of the Assembly with 85 Republicans to 64 Democrats and one Amerlcan- Laborite. Meantime party leaders looked to this complete domination to help strengthen Ifuriher — through ap- proximately $460,000 of. available patronage-Hstate-wlde Republican fences in pjreparatlou for 1840.

Assembly positions to be allocated, as indi- cated by the legislative budget, total nearly $300,000. Perley A. Pitcher, hitherto Re- publican minority leader in the Senate and supported by State Re- publican Chairman William' S. Murray for the majority leader- ship, was first to indicate a de- sire for Dewey's counsel. \Speaking for myself,\ he said, \I certainly think that the Repub- lican legislature should consult with Mr. Dewey as titular head of the parly on any program.\ QUINTS IN BED 5 MORE DAYS Callander, Ont. — (Canadian Press) — The Dionne quintuplets, whose tonsils and adenoids were taken out two days ago, ad- vanced from a diet of only orange juice and water to semi-solid foods and custard today. Their physician, Dr. Allan Roy •Defoe, said the quints were \just fine\ but added that they will be kept in bed for five more days to forestall any chance of complica- tions.

Beginning Monday Munich—(AP) — Excited crowds stormed' the palace of Michael Cardinal Von Faul- haber today and- broke all windows in the building. The attack followed an ad- dress last night before 5,000 persons by Adolf Wagner, Nazi district leader . for Ba- vari and Bavarian minister of interior, in which he read a letter from the Cardinal ask- ing police protection in. case popular passions should result in attacks on Catholic clergy in the present tense situation. Warns Churchman \If Von Faulhaber mends his ways he will be protected better than the police car,\ Wagner shouted. He added he was offer- ing no excuse for anti-Jewish vio- lence that burst out Thursday. Only last Sunday the 69-year-old cardinal, the Archbishop of Mu- nich, used a' passage from a speech by Adolf Hitler to-support a plea for \the God-given rights of personality.\ He recalled that Hit- ler had said Germany's greatest assets were her creative personal-, ities. The sermon was greeted by whistling by Nazi\ listeners. ' Crowds today descended • upon the Archbishop's • palace with bricks, and sticks,' and shattered glass. on~the«. -first., -.and . se.cpnd. floors. — No word was forthcoming from the interior of the imposing 'pal* ace. • \. The \demonstration recalled the one made Oct. 8 on the palace In Vienna of Theodore .CaVdmarihhit- zer, archbishop of Vienria.' On that occasion furniture \-was thrown, from' the building to the' streets and the Cardinal was hurt. by stones thrown inside. . '• ' Catholics Attacked • At the mass meeting last night Wagner attacked Catholics\ to whom he referred .as \Roman Catholic allies of Jews.\ (Cardinal Von Faulhaber, out- standing among German Catholic leaders, has often been at odds •with Nazis. Asss s s s e RA ATT A. with Nazis. As early as Aug. 21, 1934, he denounced Nazi opposi- tion to Jews., Soon afterward, he expressed dissatisfaction with the Nazi handling of the church situa- tion. He banned marriages be- tween Catholics and so-called Nazi neopagans. He challenged Nazi attempts to curb Catholic rights. In February, 1935, an aUdience in Munich shouted \hang him,\ but in a subsequent pastoral letter he exhorted Catholics to stand fast in then: faith. (He deplored what he called the alienation of German youth from the church, pleaded with, the Na- zis for an evidence of good will, was jeered when he expressed hope, hi February, 1937, that the German government would live up to its accord with the Holy See. Early this year he denounced Nazis, insisted Catholics were be- ing persecuted, and was assailed for his stand by Wagner.) TUGWELL CALLS FOR NEW PHILOSOPHY ABOUT GOVERNMENT Schenectady—(AP)—Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwell, head of the New York City Planning. Commission, believes -that \a- new philosophy of government \must be adopted.\ Tugwell, former under secretary of agriculture in the present ad- ministration, made the statement in addressing the annual conven- tion of the New York State Asso- ciation of Deans here last night, at which Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt was also \a^speaker. In calling for'the \adoption of a new philosophy about, government Tugwell declared: \We must plan and execute our governmental organization with no less efficiency than -we plan, and maintain our industrial organiza- tions.\ He said that Industry had \devel- oped tremendously\ in the past 25 years because of \wholeheart- ed' application of principles of ex- actitude.\ \Since government is more than a mere police power,\ Tugwell said, \and is in fact a major fac- tor in our economies, we must go back to the original concept of 'political economy' and remedy the present 'crisis' not by doing\ something for the world, but by doing something for ourselves.\
