Help Marine Reservists In War Practice A maneuver simulating the evac- uation of the British at Dunkerque by use of small boats was carried out at Great River Sunday morning hy the Third - Battalion of the United States Marine Corps reserve to dem- onstrate the use of privately owned vessels in the defense of the Atlantic coastline. At the end of two - sham battles on the Suifoik County Republican club grounds, at T imber Point on Great- River , the 250-Marine Reservists-were taken to Bay Shore by 74 small power boats in 70 minutes. , Tne boats left the beach- at interval s of less than, a minute. . . • - ¦ Robin J. Limpert , commander of the South Shore Power Boat squadron and Lieutenant-Colonel Bernard S. Barron , ' commander of the Marine 'Corps unit , said the entire expedition had been a success and that the evac- uation maneuver demonstrated beyond doubt the ability * .o£ . privately owned boats to handle military units in the event of necessity . The Marines Reservists came from Brooklyn and were -taken to Timber Point in the boats Saturday for tactical problems. Dividing into two groups of \Reds \ and \Blues , \ the \Reds \ under the command of Capt. Milton V. O'Connell , represented a force of \ malcontents and fifth col- umnists \ entrenehed in the woods , and the \Blues , \ under the command of Capt. Frederick M. Lindlavv , launched an attack. The \Blues \ won the maneuver after two hours of \heavy fighting. \ The \Blues \ again were declared the winners in a second attack in which they \ captured\ the entire force of the \Reds. \ In tlie second phase of the maneuvers , the \Blues \ were commanded by Lieut. Rog- ir Willcoc-k and the \Reds \ by Lieut. John Veeder. Four regular Marine corp s officers were present in the field as observers : Lieut. -Col. Walter H. Sitz , Lieut,. - Col. J. E. Betts , Capt , John R. Moe and Capt. Stafford F. Potter . The Marine Reserve battalion camped in tents overnight on the grounds of the Suffolk Republican club. Monsignor William T.;'Dillon , pres- ident of St. Joseph' s college , a Roman Catholic school in Brooklyn , set up an altar of ora n ge crates in the field and hel d a morning field mass. The outing was unofficial in that it was not prescribed by regulations and the government bore none of the cost. Colonel Barron said that the officers had contributed about $1 , 000 and that a like sum had been raised by a party. The members of the South Shore Power squadron furn- ished the boats and paid their own. expenses. Among the boat owners taking part in the maneuvers was Howard Cole- man of Carman street , Patchogue , a lieutenant in the South Bay division of the Power squadron , who had Sub- Lieutenant Donald Kaan of Bellport as his crew aboard the Coleman cabin cruiser , How Is Gin. Alien h Fined $50 For cing U. S. Flkg Atop aa Outhouse Salvatore • Lampasona , aged 25 , an Italian alien , who was haled before Justice of the Peace John C. Robbins of Babyloa on Friday on a charge of having shown disrespect toward the American flag by flying it from a backhouse in the rear of his summer b-ungalow on Oak street , Deer Park , paid the full . limit of the law. In imposing a fine of $50 , Judge Robbins ' said , ^1: am*^sqrry that I can 't send you ta jailV 7pain tired of hearing about aliens ,; wjio enjoy the liberties ,granted U'S under our flag and form of government , degrading this nation. I'll fine you the maximum amount. \ ' ¦ - ¦ - . - According, to police ,. Lampasona , p roprietor of a butcher shop at 118 Central avenue , Brooklyn , -was born in Italy and came to. this country in 1925 , but ai ever made an attempt to become a . citizen. A month ago , State Trooper Thom- as C. Curtin Observed the . flag, worn and- dirty, hoisted from the Lampa- sona outhouse. Lampasona was not at home , ' so Trooper Curtin obtained a warrant from Judge Robbins. Served in Brooklyn , Lampasona at first pleaded not guilty, but following a . conference with his attorney, chang- ed the plea. : ' The fliig was turned, over tcf the Americanism committee of the Baby- lon Legion post , and Capt. James Plynn , head of the Troop L , State police , said he would refer the com- plaint against Lampasona to the Pederal Bureau of Investigation. AN HONEST-SPOKEN MAN It took President Roosevelt thou- sands of words to tell how he suf- fered in being \drafted\ for the renomination which he obviously had been hoping for months to get if he could get it with all Democratic rivals throttled. ' It took ) Mr. Willkie one short para- gra p h to debunk the ' Presidential oration. Willkie ' s no martyr , he* says . He really wanted the nomination. . An honest-spoken man! And he writes all his own speeches. I fMiafiiiis TOWN OF BROOKHAVEN Births— .

The Legislature of the State of New York is about to make a study of the alleged tendency of industry to leave this state and find locations in places where conditions are more favorable , particularly as regards lowered costs. Possibly this trend will not be found so strong as some persons imagine, but there must be some facts behind the many stories to this effect. Any dispassionate , fac- tual report will be of hel p toward curing the trouble. The Long Island association , in commenting on this legislative study, which was started recently, says that , regardless of the general cur- rent , there has been an increase of industr y in the non-city Long Island counties. The association ' s statement , issued by Meade C. E)obson , managing direc- tor , follows : \A Joint Legislative committee on Industry and Labor conditions has called a conference with business and civic organizations throughout the state which will be attended by a special committee representing the Long Island association. \After many years of dilatory arid futile studies of the industrial exodus from the State of New York , it ap- pears that the Legislature is now genuinely interested in this problem and that the truth may be iinally ar- rived at. Excessive demands of labor , burdensome municipal restrictions , high cost of living, excessive taxation , are factors which must be considered dispassionately without prejudic e on the part of labor and government. \While there has been a loss of in- dustry of certain types in both Brook- lyn and Queens there has been a small steady increase in industry in Nassau and Suffolk counties during the past ten years. While these coun- ties arc not primarily industrial in character there is still loom for small industries in several of the Nassau and Suffolk communities such as Glen Cove , Hempstead , Port Jefferson , Patchogue and Sag Har- bor. Suggestions have ' ' reached the Long Island association Jor advo- cating Industrial zoning in the com- munities along the central branch of the Long Inland railroad through Suffolk county from Faiwingdale eustward to Manorville. \ More Suffolk Farms Says Census—2 , 255 The agricultural element of Suf- folk county held its own during the past five years , according to the county ' s farm census recently com- pleted under the direction of Census Supervisor F. Raymond Dominy. The 1940 census showed a total of 2 , 255 farms in Suffolk , an increase of 35 . over the , 1935 census of 2 , 220. In announcing the farm figures , Mr. Dominy said that the Suffolk census office in Islip was closed as of July 15 after having been in op- eration for about four months. Civilian Pilot Training Course , Suffolk Airport The Riverhead Rotary club is spon- soring a civilian pilot training pro- gram under the supervision of the Civil Aeronautics authority, and will be held at Suffolk airport , north of Westhan)]>ton Boach . The cours e will consist of a ground school to be opened in tho near future and a specific number of flight schol- arships for each training center , de- pending upon tho enrollment. Appli- cation for enrollment in this course ean be obtained from the Riverhead Rotary club. Suffolk airport was selected, as being one of the approved on the list , of tha Civil Aeronautics author- ity. Another Regiment National Guard Coining to Upton The advance unit of the Fourteenth Infantry National Guard of Brook- lyn , second large trainin g unit to make use of Camp Upton ' at Yaphank this season , arrived there , Monday The advance unit consists of the regimental headquarters and head- quarters company, the service com- pany and the band , Lieut. -Col. John J. Byron in command. The aviain body of the Fourteenth has just completed the first stage of its training period at C&mp Smith afc PeekakLll. This group, consisting of VOO men , is leaving Pcokskill for yaphan k today to complete the regi- ment' s training - period. On Sunday, the annual regimental track meet wan held before 4 , 000 vis- itors o n the grounds at Camp Smith. WHO WAS JEFFERSON , ANYHOW One of tho influential deqp South- ern dailies , tho Charleston (S, C.) News and Currier , independent Dem- ocratic in its polidy. has th is to say about the trumped up \drafting \ .of Mr. Roosevelt: \For Democrats to nominate a President for a third term is to ¦ spit on the democracy of Thomas Jeffer- son . That the country is threatened by war is the highest reason that the man whose administration has •disabled it should not be continued as commander-in - chief of the army and navy. \ The Roosevelt admini- stration has emptied the national treasury by spendings and borrowing to elect and elect and elect and i , n the country ' s emergency has left it all but defenseless. There should be a change of administrati on , be- cause the .present, - . administration is a failure. \ - • • ' ' a, * A >_> * A A A *«* » ** A *AA i. **- > *- y I'Jm ^Bt'^HI _H_ H ^flTHh -d__T__h_ \\Br----. _____ * _^^^ .^ M . ,,. , __ - •*, ' ____, B H D H WN B~H If IB III lw y - Ilk UT v E H |'- ' l \ *. ™ « «' w JoM;J^ j^ O. ¦^ l¦ ¦ ¦ 11
