Achievements OF
NRA Blue Eagle

Washington, May 28-(UP)
The Blue Eagle went down
screaming of achievements.
Among these, MIRA authori-
ties claimed:
1. 100000 jobs created
directly.
2. Industrial pay rolls in
creased $4,000, 100000 annu-
ally.
3. The average work week
reduced from around 20
hours to 40.
A. 22,00O,O0O of a possible
$4,000, 200 workers brought
under coded standards of

these claims and contended,
on the contrary, that the
codes fostered monopoly,
penalized the little business
man and, in general. retard-
ed recovery.

FUGITIVE RETURNS TO JAIL

Lambert Hines, who on Sunday,
Aug. IL, in company with Jimmy
Jones, another prisoner, escaped
from Elkton Jail by filing the lock of
a door and scaling the 30-foot wall,
interrupted Sheriff Eugene Racine's
breakfast Friday morning to give
himself up.
Racine and his deputy, Louis Seth,
were just starting their morning
meal, when the doorbell rang in the
residence part of the jail. The
deputy went to the door to find Hines
ready to surrender.
The prisoner who was waiting
trial on a charge of petty larceny,
said he was sorry that he made the
beak. He blamed Jones for plotting
the break and leading him on. Jones
was captured a short while after the
break.
Hines said he had gotten as far as
Salisbury, Md, by hooking rides on
trucks when he decided it was all a
mistake and decided to turn back.

son of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry j. Bailey
of Jackson street and Park Place
Wilmington, was killed at three
o'clock Sunday morning when his
automobile and Virginia truck
collided on the Glasgow-Elkton road,

dent of the Desco Corporation.

til Coroner Stanley LETTERS could

Young Bailey was driving alone

summer home, White Fir Lodge,
on the Elk river. The truck was
headed toward Wilmington. Chan
cellor told the Maryland State police
that he had gone off the concrete

was killed instantly. His skull was
fractured and other injuries sus-
tanned. The truck was not badly

VIM. Chancellor, was exonerated
from blame.

NEW REGULATIONS OUTLAW
SINK BOXES

The recently adopted regulations,
considered the most stringensS pro-
mulgated since the enactment of the
migratory bird treaty act, outlaw
wildfowl shooting on baited grounds
and the use of sink boxes, bushwack
boats and other devices during the
coming season.
Maryland sportsmen commended
that these regulations were uncalled
for and will work a great hardship
to thousands of guides and owners OF
ducking shores. They also contend
that the prohibition against sink
boxes and bushwack boats will turn
the famous Susquehanna flats into a
wildfowl sanctuary, because it is i'm
possible to shoot in these fats with
out the use of these devices.
