TYPHOON SWEEPS
OVER N0RTHLUzON
Two Ships Driven Ashore as
Winds Snap Wires to
Stricken Area.
BY the Associated Press.

MANILA, P. I. August 16 Sunday
The Weather Bureau announced to-
day a severe typhoon swept over
northern Luzon Island late last night
severing communications with the
stricken region.
Calls for help previously had been
received from two ships driven aground
by advance blasts of the storm which
was reported by the Weather Bureau
to be moving at high speed into the
China Sea.
The United States Coast and Geo.
detic Survey ship Fathomer ran ashore
on the northeast tip of Luzon. The
Tewated (not listed in available ship
ping records) was the other distressed
vessel.
Starting 100 miles out in the Pacific,
the typhoon moved west-northwest at
high speed toward the Luzon coast.
Second Typhoon in Week.
It was the second typhoon to hit the
northern area within a week. Seven
persons drowned in the Cayagan River
Valley last week when the first storm
struck.
Early last evening the Fathomer
reported: "At present out of center of
typhoon passing. Don't know whether
need assistance"
Later both vessels sent calls for
help.
The storm moved 80 miles toward
the coast in about four hours. Fear
ing heavy damage, officials broadcast
warnings to fishing craft and the re-
Gently flood-stricken Cayagan Valley.
The vessels were warned against leav-
ing harbor.

TRIP HA[TS
POLITICAL MOVES
Avoids Pressure From White
House to Soft Pedal
Labor Fight.
BY ALBERT L. WARNER.

John L. Lewis sudden and previous
ly unannounced departure for Europe
was followed yesterday by reports in
labor circles that one reason for his
trip was to avoid pressure from the
White House to soft pedal the activi-
ties of the Committee for Industrial
Organization and to defer his battle
with the craft unionists until the
American Federation of Labor con-
vention on November 9. The conven-
tion begins six days after the presi-
dental election.
Democratic friends of the President
in labor ranks, not associated with the
Lewis cause, have been suggesting ad-
ministration effort to help bring about
a modus vivendi between the Lewis
group of unions and the opposing
Executive Council of the A. F. of L.
in order to patch up temporarily the
labor rift.
Their objective has been based on
the thought that as Lewis widens the
rift he also forces his opponents in
labor away from the Roose-
welt banner because of Lewis close po-
litical alliance with the President.
Lewis is due to return to the United
States on September 3, which is just
two days before the order of the Exec
utive Council suspending the 10 Lewis
unions becomes effective. This leaves
almost no time for the peacemakers to
attempt arranging some sort of C. I.
o. action which would supply ground
for the A. F. of L. council to rescind
or postpone the effective date of its
Pressure Now Impossible.
Among the associates of Lewis, who
is chairman of the c. I. o. and presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers, no
ONE believes that his stand against dis
solving the C. I. o. would have been
But White House pressure
conceivably might have induced him

Men, Women Save Lead in
Final Day as Rallies by
Rivals Fail.
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

BERLIN, August 15.-Japan's men
and Hollands women closed their
Olympic swimming campaigns with a
terrific rush today. but thanks to q
big lead piled up on previous days, the
United States managed to squeeze
home ahead in both divisions under
the unofficial point scoring system.
A first place, two seconds, a fourth
and a fifth on the final tumultuous
day enabled the American men to
nose out the Japanese. SO to n. and
smash the monopoly the little brown
scooters gained at Los Angeles four
years ago. A third and fourth in the
400-meter free-style final gave Uncle
Sans girls a SIS to 521a margin over
Hollands great team led by Rita
Mastenbroek.
Victory in all four mems and wom-
ems diving championships, with a
sweep of the first three places in two
of them, proved the deciding factor in
the Americans triumph.
Winning three out Of six speed
races, Japanese again proved them
selves the worlds best at getting
through water in hurry, but they
did not come near duplicating their
sensational showing in 1882, when
they won everything except the 400
meter free style.
Victories by Jack Medica of Seat
tie in the 400, Adolf Kiefer of Chi
cago in the 100 = meter backstroke
and Ferenc Csik of Hungary in the
100-meter free-style championships
proved sad blows to the defending
champions.

MANSION
IS DECIDED TO j. s.
167 Acres of Famous Estate
in Virginia to Be Used
for Park.
Pictures on Page BID
BY NELSON M. SHEPHERD.

A deed conveying as a gift to the
Government the 40-room mansion and
167 acres of the large Virginia estate
of the late Joseph Letter for use as a
Federal recreation center and park,
was recorded yesterday at Fairfax
County Court House.
Located 2 miles above Chain Bridge,
opposite Glen Echo and Sycamore
Island. the property eventually will
be absorbed as part of the George
Washington Memorial Parkway,
which is being extended gradually
from Mount Vernon to Great Falls
AS soon as the deed was actually re-
corded, the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, which ac-
Quired the land after months of nego-
tiation, transferred title to the Ofice
of the National Capital Parks as Gus
todian.
This week, squads Of c. c. c. men
will be put to work on the estate
clearing the brush, making bridal
paths, walks and picnic grounds, so
the Washington public may benefit
from the new park at the earliest op-
portunity. With its mile and a half
frontage on the Potomac River, boat
ing and bathing facilities also will be
provided
Park officials said 1t was the largest
single acquisition of land since Con-
gress passed the Capper-Cramton act
OF 1880 authorizing the development
Of the MeroorioI Dc rLu,ov
Consideration is 81.
The gift was made to the Govern
ment, according to the deed, in con-
sideration of the sum of 81 and of
the benefit" that the improvements
will be to the adjoining acres Of the
Letter estate and "the desire of the
parties of the first part to assist in
carrying out the purposes" of the
parkway act.
The estate of the Chicago and
Washington millionaire, who died
April II, 1882, comprises about 452
acres, with the huge frame and stucco
mansion which Letter erected short
ly before the World War for enter
tanning host of friends. This acre
age, in woods and pastures, eventually
will be subdivided and sold by the
executives and trustees of the Letter
estate. For some years, the upkeep
of the Virginia farm has proved a
costly burden.
The house and 167 acres acquired
by the Government was given in fee
simple, free of encumbrances. Be-
fore then, officials said, it was heav-
lily mortgaged.
For months the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission had
the beautiful acres of the Letter farm,
one of the show places outside Wash
ington, in extending the Memorial
Parkway above Chain Bridge. It hap
pened that the Letter estate was in
volved in negotiations with the Treas
ury Department over the payment of
income taxes allegedly due from 1922
to 1880.
Tax Case is Settled.
In settlement of the Governments
claim against the Letter estate for
taxes, it had first been proposed to
include the land as part Of the agree
ment. Later, however. this was
changed. The land was separated
from the tax case and was turned over
as a gift to the Government on the
payment of the nominal fee of 81.
The tax case was settled for payment
Of $4,000 in cash.

Park and Planning Commission, said
