1t seems that the whole world is about to engage
in of the worst things in the history of mankind
and that is One writer states that: War is of
the most damnabe things that could ever shade the
foundations of civilization" Another states war is He'll
Personally don't think there word in any encycoped-
dictionary that could explain the real meaning of the
word WAR" 1t is something that is unexpainable.
We all know of the dreadful suffering and dying in
the past We all know of the humiliation handed Etho
pia by Italy, all of this is Just touch of war; and
very soon, don't know When something will happen for
the better worse.

Strip-Tease Queen
Once More in
Chosen Role

DENVER, Colo, Nov. Gypsy
Rose Lee, the strip tease queen,
wants to be Gypsy Rose Lee and
nobody else, not even herself.
And if that sounds confusing
it is no more of mix-up than was
Gypsy Roses Hollywood stay, dur.
ing which she appeared in pic
ture under her real name, Louise
Hovick.
Revealing today that she has
terminated her motion picture con
nectionS and is having lots OF
fun" here back in her Gypsy Rose
Lee role, the young lady who would
rather take clothes off than put
them on said:
II am in a jam with the Hays
organization. When I went to
Hollywood, the censors refused
to let me appear in films by the
name I built up. I was billed
under my real name, Louise
Hovick.
'It was embarrassing to be
referred to as Miss Louise
Hovick, comma, Rose Lee; or
as Louise, parenthesis, Gypsy
Rose Lee, unparenthesiS, Ho-
vick.' I made the name and
wanted to use it, but they
wouldn't let me-.
With that off her mind Gypsy
went back to taking clothes of
her back.

SUPERIOR STOLE.
court RECORDS
His Story Holds Officer
on $4,000 Bail

NEW YORK, Nov. IAN el-
derly, mild-mannered police
man, who for 81 years thought
tnat a patrolman could not ar
rest his superior, told a hushed
courtroom a fortnight story of
how Lieut.. Cuthbert ]. Behan had
sneaked into a Brooklyn police
station and stole 1900 arrest
records.
Il saw him do it but I couldn't
arrest him because he was my
SUPERIOR" gray-haired Patrolman
Edward ]. Lawlor insisted.
LIED TO SUPERIORS
And then, as Behan's lawyer
tiled vainly to upset his tale,
LaWlor declared that he had lied
to ranking departmental officers
because I was afraid Behan might
do something to me-"
The startling story told to Mag
istrate Matthew j. Troy in the
first court sensation of Brooklyn's
rapidly widening criminal corrup-
ton probe, resulted in Behan's
being jailed under $25,000 bail
for action of an extraordinary
grand jury on charges of grand
larceny and mutilation of records.
REFUSES TO CUT BAIL
Acting on a suggestion by Spe-
cial Prosecutor John Harlan Amen
named by Governor Lehman to
supersede Kings District Attorney
William F.. x. Geoghan in Brook
llyn's rapidly widening criminal
corruption probe-Magistrate Troy
refused to cut Behan's bail to
SIS, 900.
I'VE don't know what outside
pressure might be put on Behan
to keep him away from the
trial" said Amen. And the
grand jury" he added signifi-
cantly, won't meet until No
vember IT,"
The former Federal rackets
buster then revealed that he
planned to protect witnesses in
his far-flung inquiry from harm
by mobSterS. Police guards, he de-
clared, would be assigned to any
witness who felt his connection
with the probe might endanger his
life.
