ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Here is an example Of what too
many pedestrians do. The person
illustrated above never had time to
wait for the green light, but now, as
all will admit, he has PLENTY
of time. No doubt any person who
has had such an experience will
decide it's better to wait few Sec
onds than to spend weeks and even
months getting over injuries suf-
fered because Of impatience.
Last year there were more than a
thousand pedestrians killed when
they crossed at intersections against
the signal, and there were more than
$4,000 who were injured, according
to the Travellers Insurance Com
pany. Many of those killed, If they
had chance to do it over again,
would be more than willing to wait
for the light to turn in their favor.
Very likely those injured feel the
same way. 1t may be little irksome
to wait for the signal to flash 60"
but one remains dead q long time,
and It's far from being funny to be
kept in bed recovering from injuries.

was established in 1926. In the in
tervening years this Foundation
has labored arduously not only in
evolving new methods of treatment
for those afflicted but in the pre-
valence of this disease and its aw-
full ravages.
Much has been done, especially
in the past five years, through the
funds raised each year in the cele-
bration of my birthday, to aid re-
search in finding the cause of the
disease, to seek new knowledge in
the hospitals, the clinics, and in
the whole field of after treatment.
To combat this disease now and
to stop it at its source, to carry off

that the new National Foundation

Tomorrow Longest Day of Year, But
 More Rain Promised

Despite the rain, tomorrow is still the longest day of the year, the Weather Bureau reporting that there will be 183 hours of possible sunshine, but not probable. The sun rises at 2:53 in the morning, some where behind the clouds, and sets at 9:10 pm, the summer change actually taking place at 5.04 pm.
 But the chances for actual sum- shine are slim, the Bureau forecast ing rain to add to the SIS inches which had fallen so far this month up to noon today, compared with the normal June fall of 3.81 inches. June, 1904, holds the record thus far for rainfall with a total of 11.50 for the month, but there are good prospects of June, 1888, smashing the high mark. as no fair weather is seen in the immediate offing

Tea Party Tas Vas 6 cents;
 NO,U British Are Pdying 10
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, June IT. - Time flies, and it now develops that enemy airplanes can shake more taxes out of tea-drinkers than the old-time fear of British redcoats.
 England recently raised its tax on tea from 12 cents pound to 16 cents and while the English don't cheer it especially, they are pay ing it without threats of staging tea parties such as added histori- cal zest to our pre-Revolutionary days.
 The money, of course, is going to build up defenses for the British Isles, which right now are con- cerned over the prospect of having fleets of bombers come over from the Continent.
 Just for the sake of comparison, it could be mentioned that the tax which precipitated the Boston Tea Party was about six cents a pound, barely less than a third of the tax the British now are levying upon themselves.

Forty-eight Long Rmge Bombers to Make Flight,

Rear Admiral Charles A. Blakely Aircraft Commander, and Practically Entire Staff, Including Captain Ava Bernhard Are Leaving Southern Base Saturday.
 Four Squadrons to Remain North Until August D

SAN DIEGO, Cal, June 20.- Under command of Rear Admiral Charles A. Blakely, Aircraft Com mander of the Scouting Force, 48 twin motored long range patrol bombers will leave here next Satur- day on a nonstop flight to Seattle.
 It will be the greatest number of offshore bombers to ever attempt a flight in mass formation.
 The bombers will comprise Squa- drons ', 9, II and 12 of Patrol Wing No l.
 After a brief stay in Seattle, the squadrons will operate out of Puget Sound to the fleet air base at Sitka, Alaska, remaining in the northern waters until August 15 when they will return, in mass flight.
 Virtually the entire staff of Ad- miral Blakely, including Capt. Ava Bernhard, Chief of Staff. will make the flight.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1938-06-20
IT DEPENDS ON THE VIEW

The fear of British redcoats was not enough to convince the Yankee Colonists they should pay the tax, although to be sure the circumstance es then were far different from those affecting the present British tea tax.
 The complaint of the Colonists was that the money was intended to help England finance the very red coats which were kept over here to keep the Yankees in "subjection. D When the shoe was on the other foot the Colonists paid tea taxes. The United States popped tariff on tea in l789 ranging from six cents to 45 cents and this was doubled when the government needed money to fight the British in 1872.
 Tea hasn't been taxed or tariffed in this country since 1903 when a 10 percent Spanish war levy was repealed But somebody has gotta pay for these battleships.

FAST OLYMP|AN !. IS WRECKED IN
 RAIL DISASTER
Locomotive and Seven Cars Dive Into Montana
 Stream
HIGH WATER WASHES
 BRIDGE OUT AT NIGHT
Death List Is Estimated as High as Forty-Bodies
 Being Recovered

MILES CITY, Mont, June 20.- Custer Creek, 26 miles east of here, into which the Milwaukee Railroads Olympian carried nearly 40 per- sons to their deaths in the Na- tion's worst train tragedy in years, resisted efforts of rescuers to reach one car still holding some of the victims.
 Heavy silt is flowing through the submerged tourist sleeper in which IT bodies are reported. Railroad officials, because of the heavy silt, were forced to abandon attempts to raise the sleeper by cranes fear ing that the bottom of the water logged car might drop out, sending the bodies down stream.
 Eleven Identified
 Sixteen bodies, eleven of them identified, have been recovered from other wreckage. Another body, that of an unidentified woman, has been taken from the Yellowstone River into which Custer Creek flows, about 50 miles from the scene of the tragedy.
 Porters told of seeing as many as five bodies carried away.
 A 20-foot flood rolled down Gus ter Creek channel.
 The flood waters carried out a 180-foot bridge just before the fast Olympian arrived for the crossing shortly before midnight Saturday.
 Pitches Into Creek
 The racing locomotive pitched into the creek with seven of the twelve cars behind it. The locomo- tive and the cars piled up in a jackstraw heap in the surging flood waters.
 Passengers on the train numbered about 1855 and the crew comprised ten men.
 Passengers and crewmen from the cars left standing on the tracks, which was running with foot deep water, hastily responded to give what aid they could.
 The water began to recede short- ly before dawn Sunday and it is indicated now that the bodies may be dug from the swamped sleeper.
 Witnesses from one half-over- turned car said they could see bodies of passengers, some still in their seats. Sleeper lights were still burn. ing at dawn Sunday.
 Flood Waters Recede
 The flood waters are slowly re- ceding this afternoon.
 The flood came suddenly, one track walker reporting that 20 minutes before the train was due at the bridge, Custer Creek was dry.
 Immediately word was received of the disaster. doctors, nurses and railroad crewmen and wreckers were dispatched to the scene from many different points along the rail system. Bodies were recovered. and those injured or in need were given attention.
