CARD INDEXED
French Soldier Faces Trial
With Sophie Drozdt for
Giving Her Rifle
By RALPH HEINZEN
United Press Staff Correspondent

PARIS, Feb. 6.-(UP).-Spies
have no more privacy than gold
fish. Spying in these peace-days
is a precarious profession with
the odds about four to one
against a successful run of more
than a few months.
In France alone there are, at
present, 60 spies and spy sus-
poets languishing in musty old
prisons waiting for trial. Sixty
others are being trailed wherever
thew go. like candidates for the
headlines of next month.
In the secret archives of the
French police stands a set of
metal filing cabinets. In each
drawer are several hundred cards,
all cross-indeXed, and on the two
sides of each card are the life
story of known spies and suspect
spies. These metal drawers are
the key to the French successes
in breaking up international spy
rings.
In the police "Who's Who"
files. We CLEAN the following:
LYDIA STAHL, woman leader
of the band: 4S and decidedly
bad looking; born Tchekaloff, at
Rostoff, Russia. She has done
bit of everything, with degrees in
Mathematics, Chemistry, Oriental
languages; paints on silk. writes
movie scenarios and invents
Swedish exercises. She was the
chief, the brains of the Interna-
tional Syndicate and tied up\ her
gang with the famed Finnish Syn
dictate.
LOUIS UIERRE NICHOLAS
MARTIN, 81, a native Partisan
who became enamored of Lydia
Stahl although there is no proof
that she did more than use him
as a tool. She got him a job as
interpreter at the Ministry Of
Navy where all the documents of
great secret Importance passed
through his hands. From a hum
hle professor Of language he be-
came a tool Of a master spy.
BENJAMIN BERCOVITZ. -,
and his wife; native Rumanians,
naturalized Canadians who lived
long in Western Canada; they
ranked next to Lydia Stahl as
leader of the syndicate.
MARIE MERMET. %, village
school-teacher, daughter of a re-
tired French police commissioner
who seems to have slipped into
spying by mistake. 1t was in her
home that police discovered an
elaborate radio set-up for send
ing clandestine messages to
agents abroad by wireless.

to be an expert at taking photo

them as symtomatic of the KIM
of people and the kind of govern
ment that we have in this coun'
try.
The Hopkins statement was In
teresting here additionally be-
cause of the history of Mrs:
O'Berry's appointment. 1t is we'll
known that Washington was
doubtful about naming her. When
it was told in this correspondence
first that Mrs. O'Berry would be
appointed. her political fitness as
vice-chairman of the Democratic
executive committee and her 10y
atty to Governor Ehringhaus were
mentioned as her best talking
points. Washington did not like
that and sent representative
here to get such facts as would
make her unavailable for such an
office. But the Washington man,
said to have been Alan tombstone,
regional director of CWA, was so
thoroughly outtalked by DR.. How
ard w. Odum of Chapel Hill and
Miss Harriet Elliott of Greensboro
that ne went away convinced at
least that Mrs. O'Berry had power
somewhere. The statement of Mr..
Hopkins that she is doing heE'
work as we'll as any administrator
in the United States seems to be
the very word that Mrs. O'Berry's
friends long have wished to hear.
1t is such a tribute as will make
exceedingly unwise any further
attempt politically to interfere
with her administration. The
chronic attacks which are made
will be segregated and put in the
department of perpetual crouch
and grievance.

1OO1CCC Workers
Fight Forest Blaze
in Helmville Area

A hundred CCC workers from
the Nine Mile remount camp recently
were on the fire lines on Moose creek,
10 miles northeast of Helmville, bat
Ting a 120-acre blaze which had ap-
parently been started by mining pros
pectors burning brush.
Trucks from the Nine Mile camp,
carrying the detachment of 100 fire
fighters, roared through Missoula a few
days ago on their way to the Helmville
country.
This was the first fire call of the
season for the CCC camps, and though
it was unexpected, the boys were on
their way within a couple of hours af-
ter the alarm aroused them from their
slumbers far up Stony creek.
Forest service officials said that the
blaze was burning in yellow pine tim
Der, some heavy stands and some down
timber. 1t scattered rapidly under the
high winds and covered more than 100
acres before it was checked.

PASTURES SHOULD
BE PROTECTED
KEEP STOCK OFF UNTIL GRASS
HAS MADE SUBSTANTIAL
GROWTH

MONTANA STATE COLLEGE)
BE kind to the pasture grasses at
his time Of the year and they will
respond with a greater yield of forage
later in the season." says Clyde Nc
Zee, head of the agronomy depart
ment at Montana State college.
"A man who has just been released
Dy his physician after a long period Of
Illness and told that he may return to
MS Job, is in no condition for hard work
until after a period of recovery. This
IS almost exactly the condition Of most
pastures in the early spring during re-
cent years." Mckee says.
Many farm pastures have been graz
ed heavily for from four to six months,
mckee points out. Such pastures go in
TO the winter with little or no protective
covering. The plant food, which is stor-
ed i n the roots of the pasture grasses,
mas been reduced so much by the long
grazing that there will be little with
which to start growth the following
spring. Such pastures are actually in
vallds and need nursing before they can
return to normal.
In far too many instances, livestock
have been permitted to Craze pastures
IN the spring just as soon as the green
color appears. "This is rough treatment
for an invalid pasture. No one thing
Will do as much toward reducing the
yield of grass in a pasture as excessively
early grazing" Mckee says. This is ap-
preciated by understanding how pas
ture plants obtain food.
Growing plants take up part of their
food from the soil through the roots.
This food is transported to the leaves
where it must be combined with the
carbon and oxygen taken from the air,
into forms which can be used in the
various functions of the plant. This
shows how important are the leaves.
When the leaves are kept closely graz
ed, especially in early spring before the
plants have had an opportunity to re-
cover from a long period Of grazing
during the previous season, the plants
suffer from lack of food.
Treat the grass kindly in the early
spring. Keep the livestock off the pas
lures until the grass has made consid-
cradle growth four or six inches high)
and the pasture will furnish a larger
yield of grass than is possible under any
system of early grazing" Mckee says.
Thorough narrowing or dragging of
pastures at this eason of the year will
be beneficial. The droppings of the
livestock from the previous year will be

In his terror at the thought Of Hat

wind caught it and blew it along the
porch. Hatfield helpfully raced him
for 1t, and in spite of his age reached
it first and put his foot down to hold
it, while Rodney tripped and stumbled
IN his haste. A second later Rodney
leaned down and snatched it, but he
wasn't at all sure from the eager CLINT

managed to read it and, of course. con-
clude the worst.

telegram said. OF course, Cecilia was
too innocent to realize the implication
TO a mind like Hatfield's. She'd prob
ably talked things over with some old
trump on the ship who had advised
her.
"When's the happy day to be?" Hat
field questioned.
1T depends on my fiancee," Rodney
snapped, stuffing his telegram into
his pocket.
For once his longing for Cecilia wa
second to a desire to talk his worries
over with a mature and humorous per-
son like Miss Edmonds who'd see the
Joke Of it. Lovers, he decided, reacted
too violently to each other. There were
occasions when a man absolutely need

Miss Edmonds, in the Hopping straw
hat and cool green frock he had seen
shortly after breakfast, was nowhere
to be seen. She had vanished without
explanation, deserving him basely in
his hour Of anxiety. All day long she
was missing and he had to confide his
perplexity to q very bad confidant-
himself.
That damned telegram If Cecilia
could only realize what people would
think, Cecilia ought to have appreci-
ated his offering to wait instead of
swapping him up as if he were some

He went into the cool, airy pool

Or did he want it? A glimmerine

resulting in much less wasted grass.
Frequent light irrigations in connec-
ton with rotation grazing will aid ma
terially in maintaining a vigorous

With Sacred Songs
BY DOWN STATE TALENT

One of the most delightful mu-
sical events given in Asbury
Church for many years was that
of last Sunday night when the Sen
ior choir and the Ladies Glee Club
assisted by four artists from Sea-
ford and Laurel, presented pro-
gram of music to the delight of
the large audience present. The
service began with the singing of
that great hymn of the Church,
Holy, Holly, Holy, Lord God AL
mighty" After the invocation and
offering the large chorus chair of
the church sang, 20 Be Joyful in
the Lord" written by Mr.. Charles
Vanleer, who was responsible for
the presence of the visitors. The
rendition of this number thrilled
the audience. The pastor then
presented Mr.. VanLeer, who intro
duced the visiting artists and ac-
companied each of them. Miss
Dorothy Hudson charmed the audi
ence with her masterful rendering
of two most beautiful and classi-
cal selections; her brother, Roland
Hudson, captivated his hearers and
proved himself to be an artist with
the trumpet in the presentation Of
two very difficult numbers, show
ing great skill and complete mast

DAIRY FARMERS
AT MILK MEET
Smyrna-C Clayton Farmers At
tend Meeting of Interstate
Milk Producers AssO.
INTEREST IN ELECTION

Messrs. Ernest S. Mattiford,
William M. Roe, and Howard Dea-
kyne attended the 18th annual
meeting of the Interstate Milk
Producers Association held in Phil
adelphia on Monday. William M.
Roe, alternate delegate, voted for
the dairy farmers for Smyrna
Clayton vicinity, the great major
ity of whom gave proxies declaring
themselves for the reorganization
of the Interstate Milk Producers
Association. Owing to SO many
proxies, the outcome of the cleo
ton will not be known for several
days. Tuesday, fifteen clerks, un-
der the supervision of Thomas F.
Gain, master appointed by Com
mon Pleas Court to supervise the
Interstate election of directors,
went about the tedious task of
checking some $4,000 proxies pre-
liminary to taking a count. A
victory for a dissenting faction led
by the Allied Dairy Farmers AS
sociation would give that group
control of Interstate policies. How
ever, whatever the outcome, it is
hoped there will be more equit-
able division of profits and that the
dairy farmers, always getting the
little end of the stick" will get
more for their product. A reduc-
tion in the retail price Of milk and
an increase in the returns to milk
producers, accomplished through
the force of public opinion, was
predicted by William B. Duryee,
New Jersey Secretary of Agricul-
ture. Duryee addressed 400 farm
ers at the closing session of the
two-day annual meeting of the In
terstate Milk Producers Associa-
ton.
