ENGLAND BUYS
RARE BIBLE

LONDON, Dec. 81 G.N.SO.-
Officials of the British Museum
were congratulated today on ne
gotiating the greatest deal in the
history Of book collecting, the
purchase Of the "Codex Sinaiti-
GUS" one Of the oldest and best
known manuscripts of the Bible.
from the Soviet government for
100000 pounds sterling approx
i1nately $51O,O0O.
The price, the greatest ever paid
for q printed book or manuscript,
will be paid equally by the British
public and the British govern
ment.
The famed manuscript, Of about
148 pages of vellum, is in Greek,
written by at least four different
copyists. II was discovered in
1859 by Constantine Tischendorf,
German scholar, in the Holy
Land. Tischendorf presented it
to Car Alexander II.
The "Codex Sinaiticus" is one
Of the only two existing fourth
century Bibles, the other, the
"Codex Vaticanus," is in the
Vatican. A third Bible, only
slightly less valuable, is the
"Codex Alexandrianus;;" dating
from the fifth century, and al
ready in the British Museum.
The Daily Herald, Laborite
organ, castigated Britain's Gin
credible government" for "grudg-
'hgly watching every penny spent
b the welfare of the people" and
then spending huge sums upon
acquisition of a volume from
which "there will be no gain to
learning, as every big library has
faithful photostatic copies"

JOHNSON GIVES
NEW EAGLE To
CLEANERS
by international News Service

BY International News Service
A new variety Of blue eagle,
signifying that its possessor gives
higher quality service than CON-
petitors displaying the present
NFSA insignia, was being devised
today at NRA headquarters.
Demand for the super -nlue
eagle was created by ruling on
cleaning and dyeing prices made
last night by Recovery Admins
traitor Hugh s. johnson.
20 Per Cent Reduction
The Administrator announced
he was willing to grant a 20 per
cent horizontal reduction in clean
ing and dyeing rates fixed under
the code for the industry because
certain cash and carry cleaners
and dyers proved at a recent hear
ing they could operate at lower
costs than most of their competi-
tors.
The administrator ruled, how
ever, that the lower cost cleaning
and dyeing was inferior service"
as compared with the sort Of
cleaning and dyeing done by most
Of the trade.
So in order to protect the pub
lie and the huge majority Of
cleaners and dyers from unfair
competition" that might result
from granting a lower differential
in rates to the cash-and-carry
group, Johnson ordered that a spe-
Cial Blue Eagle be devised for dis
play by the cleaners who "argee
to maintain a higher standard Of
service" than the cash-and-carry
group.
Brand New Viewpoint
The action introduced a new
viewpoint in code administration.
It demonstrated that the NRA
may make it possible for all equal
ity" producers and service units
to compete more successfully
against operators who sell inferior
products or give inferior service.
The minimum price in Wash
1ngton will be IS cents instead Of
o5 cents as under code first pro-
posed.

if he would name a day on

murder was so brilliant a thing
that the club would like to

its esteem and respect.

The Maryland Public Service
Commission declined to give any
decision yesterday on the question
of whether the Prince Georges

erect holder at Chillum, Md.
After hearing debate for five
hours between representatives of

the commission postponed the re-
mainder of the hearing until Mon

Fifty landowners waited on the
commission to protest the gas

The Washington times., 1933-09-30

Bill Horns, 1882 winner of the
Presidents Cup, whose boat was
put out of the race this year
when it lost a rudder during
the first heat yesterday and
nearly crashed into the Army
vessel, General Rucker, credited
his mechanic, Charles Grafflin,
with averting greater disaster,
pointing out that Grafflin, upon
seeing the plight, turned the
motor off just before he was
knocked unconscious when he
was thrown heavily against the
side of the boat.
Horn, by the way, was doubly
disappointed at not being able
to be a contender for the cup
this year. He beat George Refs,
who won the first heat yeSter-
day, last year, and two weeks
ago Refs beat Horn in their
race for the Detroit Gold Cup.
So, this was to be somewhat of
q rubbed race.
The device being used to time
the racers in this regatta, the
first time it has been used in
boat races, is accurate enough,
but it looks as though timers
were trying to figure out the
days summary on the stock
market activities when they
calculate the times. The
clocked figures are turned over
to a person with some sort of
tabulating machine, and he
does some punching on the
keys and out comes the correct
result-the time each contest
took to run the course.

And / don't get that at all. Ac-
cording to what you said before

Crelliman and me at all. You
didn't need me on his porch.

Mimi in order to break him

was going to kill you. And then
Murtoch himself gave me a bet

murder would be pinned on him,
and went on, impromptu, from
that cue.

RICH WIFE,, son
HELD BY GANG

CHICAGO, Sept. 80 G.N.S0--
Mrs. Thelma Cox, wife of George
M. Cox, wealthy ship owner, and
their two-year-old son are being
held by kidnapers, it was re-
vealed today.
The young matron and her
child were kidnapped Wednesday,
police we're told, and Cox, at his
home in New Orleans, believes
that some of the members of the
crew of one of his lake boats
performed the kidnapping.
Cox, seriously i'll at his home
in New Orleans, revealed over
the telephone that his wife and
child had been in Chicag g o
Wednesday and that they had
dropped out of sight that day.
He said Mrs. Cox had about
$4,000 in cash and some valuable
jewelry in her possession.
Sox named the men he be-
lieved responsible for the kidnap-
ing and police began a search
for them.
All the men named by Cox are
former members of the crew Of
the lake passenger steamer Isle
Royale, which has been involved
in a suit in Federal Court. Mem
bers of the crew coEtend they
have $4,000 in wages coming to
them.

Regatta Sidelights

of automobiles continued as in
a parade from the Highway
Bridge up the Georgetown
channel side of the Speedway
about three-quarters of the
way. Then, police arranged the
vehicles in single line. But
all agreed the drive was worth
the trouble.
The Coast Guard boats on
duty in connection with the re-
gatta were parked out in the
Georgetown channel yesterday
in such a manner as to form a
sort of squared court of water,
and small lights which were
run from one to another, trans
porting passengers or carrying
information. It reminded one
of street in Venice, where
neighbors run to visit one an
other by water.
The chance cruiser race yes
terday looked more like a pa
rade than a race. All were
elaborately decorated with flags
and small nights which were
discernable to better advantage
after nightfall during the
pageant. Except for the Betty
B, which walked away from all
the others, the contestants
cruised about equi-distant from
one another, and moved so SLOW
ly, as compared to the speed
shown by the smaller craft dur
ing the day, that the race factor
virtually was lost sight Of.
It's interesting, too, how the
victor of this race is chosen.
After the race" is over, num-
berS are placed in a hat and
the owner coming in first has
the greatest number of chances
to draw and the last the least
number of chances to draw, but
it is the one drawing the lucky
number who wins the event.
