acquire enough knowledge to give
you added pleasure on your vaca-
ton and a feeling of safety on your
fishing trip when the wind blows
and the waves-or foolish friends
rock the boat. The word educate
applies imperfectly to a college
graduate who may be compelled to
stand on a wharf or waters edge
and see and hear a helpless person
struggling and calling for help,
and yet unable to spring in the
water and rescue him. Let there
be change; the necessity of being
able to swim is vividly apparent to
the drowning persons and the
thousands of needlessly drowned
have a poor educational system to
thank for their fate. Over seven
thousand persons are drowned in
the United States each year ac-
cording to statistics recently pub
lished by the Government. There
is no hard strain on the human
constitution than inactivity. To sit
in an office for a life time is an ex-
ceedingly great strain. To offset
evils of a sedentry life there is no
better exercise than swimming, as
it brings into activity every mus
Gle in the body without any undue
strain on any one set of muscles
The muscles of all good swimmers
show an even, proportionate to de-
velopment. Swimming keeps the
muscles supple, enlarges the dia-
phragm and the thorax, straight
ems the spinal column, corrects
hump back, and evils that arise
from the use of improper clothing.

WALLFLOWER AT THE SHORE
Edited by Arthur M. Potter, Ex-

ecutive Secretary, Delaware ARC.
There are men and women who
avoid spending their vacations
near water because of their inabil-
ity to swim. There are others who
sit idly by on benches or paddle
around near the shore in water
shoulder-high while their trends
are having high time splashing
and diving out by the raft. The
reason for non-swimmers Well,
the chief reason is lack of conf
dence There is no reason why
any normal person should have an
abnormal fear of the water, yet it
has been said that for every man,
woman and child who is at home
in the water there are three who
are afraid of it. The easiest time
to learn to swim is between the
ages of nine and fourteen and
when coordination comes with lit
tie effort and when confidence is
most easily acquired. A child
should learn to swim as early as
possible. But if your education
along that line was neglected when
you were young, now is the time to
remedy it. You may not be able
to grasp the methods as quickly as
you might have when you were a
boy, or perform as good jack
knife dive, but you will be able to

metal in the making OF castinos
for Chevrolet passenger cars ana
trucks, it was announced here r.
day. During the last month the
average daily tonnage poured has
been 1,787, and the hourly TONNAGE
is being further stepped up to meet
the increasing demands of car and
truck production, which totaled
over 10000 in April. Shipments
of castings for cylinder blocks pis-
tons, clutch and transmission hons
ings, carburetors, and other found.
ry products, in March alone. total
ed 1892 tons. The castings are
shipped from Saginaw to be ma
chined into finished units at the
Chevrolet axle plant at Detroit the
motor plant at Flint, the transmits
sion plant at Toledo, and the Bav
City (Mich.) plant, where castings
for carburetors and other small
units are finished. The foundry is
now working day and night, with
two batteries of II cupolas in ac-
tion. The heavy duty machinery
such as the conveyor lines on
which the mOuldS DrOorecc froro
start to pouring and on through
the cooling period, is installed in
duplicate to provide for continuous
pouring; this arrangement permits
full production to be kept going
constantly, since the maintenance
and care of each set Of machinery
can be carried out while the dupli-
cate equipment is in use.

 CREDIT TO ALIENS
Praises Humble Immigrant for Achievements in
 United States

Many remarkable contributions to America and American life have been made by immigrants. 1t waa declared in an address this week by Laureat Martineau of the iln- migration bureau at Hartford. MT Martineau, who is well known in this city as the figure behind the deportation of 8 number of aliens from this city, made 1t clear that he spoke only of those who have entered this country by legal means.
 Tn addition to his address Mir Martineau answered a number of questions by prominent Hartford citizens, the occasion being a ses- sion of the free public school on government at the Capitol City. One of his questioners was James l.. Mcclure, former Waterburian, who at one time was president of the Central Labor union in this city.
 The startling statement that two aliens, are deported for every iI1- migrant entering America this year was made in the course of his re- marks by MT Martineau. Immigra- tion, he said, is only one per cent of the quota allowed by federal laws.
 Tn addition he predicted that im- migration laws, now highly re- strictive, will be considerably broadened at the next session of congress. He characterized the present laws as too harsh in their various phases.

 Search Crime Corridor
 Washington. July 25-(UP)- The hunt for John Dillinger's cronies and other quick trigger desperadoes centered today in Americas "crime corridor"
 That is what Director J. Edgar Hoover of the federal law enforce ment service terms a strip of ter ritory running southwest from northern Wisconsin and Minnesota to Texas. It takes in the Twin Cities, broadens eastward to hit Chicago and fringes of Indiana. and cuts through Iowa, Nebraska, Mis- souri, Kansas and Oklahoma.
 In the northern part of this area, especially around Chicago, federal agents are concentrated In the hunt for Baby Face" Nelson, John Hamilton and Homer Van Meter, Dillinger gangsters. Farther south, special federal squads hunt Charles Pretty Boy" Floyd.
 Federal operatives all over the country are on the alert for out jaws, but it is in the "crin1e cor ridor" that the trail is hottest.
 Hoover is certain that 1t is no mere coincidence that the. "cor- ridor" has been the scene of more bank robberies, more kidnapinge and more killings than other sec ,ions.
 "For one thing" he explained, ''the region abounds in woods that make it easier for the criminal tc hide out between raids.
 Another factor is that few states in this area have state po-- lice forces" The criminals hunted by federal agents are nearly all native born Americans.
 If each state had an effective state police force, Hoover believes progress toward cleaning up the underworld would be much more rapid.
