 Her sos, laaiting all broadcast ing on the middle Atlantic coast, used the dread word ''fire"-recall- ing the Moro Castle holocaust in which 127 passengers lost their lives. A half dozen vessels, including the White Star. .Cunard liner Carinthia, responded immediately.
 While they were changing their course to race toward the Shaw nee,s position off Cape Henry, va., the Shawnee's master reported the fire in his No. 2 hold apparently under control.

 The club members have been split for some time and the contest over the election of new officers more than a month ago was thought to have brought the trouble to . head. However, matters quilted down unti 1.-two weeks ago when Angelo Nardone was named city sheri6 to take the place of John Kildu1f, re- signed.
 They Took Exception
 Members of the club took excep- ton to the action of Alderman Sciullo and Judge Edward Mascolo in pushing through Nardone's ap- pointment without consulting the club members for their endorse ment and without calling Q meet ing of the executive committee. Mayor Hayes in good faith took the endorsement offered him by Alder man Sciullo on behalf of the club. it is charged. so the ones displeased with this high-handed method of doing business have decided to or- ganize 8 new group, hence Sunday mornings meeting.

 TAKEN TO COURT

Flint, Mich. Jan. 29-(UP)-state police investigated threats of strike violence in Saginaw today. while automobile workers awaited outcome of General Motors latest efforts to eject sit-down strikers from two Fisher Body company plants. Gov- ernor Frank Murphy sent Oscar c. Olander. chief of the police, to Sag inaw after leaders of 8 crowd which had attacked six union men, threat ened further violence if union orga- nizers carry out plans for a mass meeting Sunday.
 Meanwhile, General Motors ob- tained a court order requiring the United Automobile Workers union to "show cause" by Feb. 3 why it's sit-down strikers should not be re- moved from Fisher plants and 2 by a permanent injunction.
 The order was issued by Circuit Judge Paul V. Gadola, who assumed jurisdiction of the case after Judge Edward D. Black, who issued g tenn porary injunction Jan. 2, had with drawn under union attacks that he was substantial General Motors stockholder.

Stoll board of trade president who has been acting as press liaison man. At two press conferences all concerned refused to estimate the number of fatalities.
 Morgues Stop Telling
 It was learned that at least 164 bodies had been found before mor- gues simultaneously stopped telling the number of corpses they had en- balmed and buried. An identifica- ton bureau was set up yesterday morning but throughout the day newspapermen were refused the names of the dead although prom ises were made that they would be forthcoming from hour to hour.
 Dr. J. B. Bushmeyer of the City hospital said mot more than 50 have died here in City hospital and the death rate over the city has been surprisingly low"

 Medical science has discovered that one Of the causes of too much fat lies <n a little gland. It is the duty of this @Iny gland to make about one drop and T half every day of a vital fluid. This helps the body burn" up food and ex- tesB fatty tissues just as good draft of air helps the furnace to burn up coal without forming "clinkers''. If Ehis little gland doesn't make this drop and a half of fluid every 24 hours, many people take on ugly fat.

Tuesday and was due in New York tonight.
 A luxuriously fitted 6,2O9 ton vessel of the Clyde Mallory liners, the Shawnee has been in the New York-Miami trade since she was built in 1927.
 The Shawnee carried i90 passeng- CTS and q crew of approximately l8O. It left Miami Tuesday, stopped for additional passengers at Jack sonvilIe on Wednesday and was due at her Manhattan pier tonight. The master of the liner reported he was proceeding at 17 knots toward Cape Henry, Va, and expected to reach there before noon.

 Soon afterward the Shawnee a1- nounced her change of course toward the Virginia coast.
 Instantly all radio activity ceased saved the static beat of the Shaw nee's radio operator detailing his ships plight. Within few r1in- utes several ships in the vicinity answered and the Shawnee's mas ter told them to stand by while he checked his position with 8 radio bearing.
 The drama was being enacted in one of the worlds most crowded seaways, in the Gulf stream route to the ports of New York, Boston, and Europe from the Pacific coast, all Gulf of Mexico ports. and South America. Always at least half dozen vessels are within 50 to 75 miles of one another.

 in Great Britain, if not the world. For 40 years he had had 8 'ringside seat" at wars, revolutions, earth qiakeS and disasters. Armed with bullet-proof typewriter case, he cov- cred in swift sequence the Spanish American war, the Russo-Japanese war and the various Balkan wars. He went to the Catalonian revolu- tion, the Portuguese revolution, the champagne riots in northern France the Jamaica earthquake, the Italian expedition to Tripoli, the Agadir crisis, and the coronation of George V at the Delhi Dunbar.
 Right On Spot
 With his ability to be "on the spot" when news stories broke, he was in Belgium when the first Ger mans came marching through in 1914, and later was one of the five correspondents accredited to the British army. He covered the revo- luton in Ireland, the rise of fascism in Italy and the march on Rome. He was with the French army in the Ruhr after the war. He was deep in China during the critical years of 1927 and 1928. when Sovietism and capitalism were hanging in the ball. ance. He was in Ethiopia before, not after, Mussolini started branching out. For no particular reason he landed in Jamaica in 1908. Four days later came the great earthquake. Unhappy newspaper rivals said he caused 1t just to get the story.
 Born in Brownsville
 Sir Perciyal's father was Dr. Hib- bard s. Phillips. He was born in Brownsville, Pa, July ?, lS77. His hrst Job, at 17, was counting each day the 586 wrappers in which the Monongahela Herald was mailed. He attended public schools In Pittsburgh and worked short time on the Pittsburgh Times. When he had saved up $76 he headed for the Greek war against the Turks. He was 19 then, and wore 8 derby hat. On the train he met H. H. Kohlsaat, publisher of the old Chicago Inter- Ocean. The publisher agreed to buy his stories.

 Sir Percival was on the staff of the London Daily Express from 1901 to 1922. on the editorial staff of the London Daily Mail from 1922 to 1884, and thereafter until the time of his death with the London Daily Tele- graph. In 1920, he was knighted by the British government in recogni- ton of his outstanding work. He wore 8 derby hat until the last and he called 1t derby. not darby.

 The Mississippi surged steadily near the tops of levees In the four state region where 1t receives the waters of the Ohio, the St. Francis and other rivers. Levees were weak ening at several points.
 Threatened with disaster should hastily heightened flood walls fail were Cairo. Hickman, Ky, New Madrid and Charleston, Mo-, and Tiptonville, Tenn.
 Below Memphis on the western bank of the Mississippi the Nell wood, Ark, levee system already showed signs of strain. Engineers said 1t had settled several inches in recent years and was now crumbling. Should the river break through 100000 acres would be in- undated.
 Health Officials Fear
 Harassed health officials feared that when the muddy, debris-laden waters recede and more accurate checks can be made, the death to- tai will show a great increase. Stricken Louisville, Ky, already counting 164 dead and fearing that 25O was the real total, faced a new and unexpected calamity when sev- eral downtown business buildings were threatened with collapse. Tons of flood water had been eating at their foundations for days.
 Morale was high among the men fighting to bolster the billion-dollar Mississippi levee system. and army officers reported satisfactory pro- gross" in the race against time and rising water. But the government continued to mass men and equip ment in the vast area, prepared to remove more than 300,000 men, wo- men and children should the levees show signs or crumDllng. 4

 Levee crews, working A hours a day and sometimes in cold, muddy water, held the river back tempo rarily at the chief danger spots the sections around New Madrid, Mo-, and Helena, Ark.
