ACTION DELAYED
ON ROAD BONDS

UPPER MARLBORO, Md, Jan.
26.-Action on the proposal for a
81, 100000 bond issue to finance
improvement of 100 miles Of Sec
ondary roads in Prince Georges
county was deferred yesterday by
the Board Of County Commis-
sioners.
Members agreed, however, that
some means of carrying out need:
ed road improvements must be
found promptly and that no other
method Of raising the funds ap.
peared practicable. The bond
issue, it was pointed out, would
require the addition Of 10 cents
to the tax rate per 500 for a
period Of 20 years, although the
program would enable the county
to turn the improved roads over
to the State for maintenance.
The commissioners authorized
the following road improvements:
Grading Of Quarles Street, in
Beaver Heights, a distance Of 800
feet to its intersection with East
ern Avenue, at an estimated cost
of $790; reconditioning Of Sunny
side Road from the Baltimore
Boulevard at Beltsville to Green
belt, a distance of one mile; exten-
sion Of Jefferson Avenue from
Wildercroft, by way of Finn's
Lane, to the Defense Highway, a
distance of approximately two
miles, and reconditioning Of the
Princess Garden road from
Blythe's garage on the Defense
Highway to Goodluck Road, dis
tance Of ~ miles.

The baby's mother reported
Monday to commemorative At

elderly woman and a young couple
had driven away with the child
after posing as Government vel.
fare workers.
THREATENED ARREST"
The woman, scid to be about
so years old, told Loreen that un.
less she. gave her the child to be
placed in a Government home,
she would have her arrested. She
then took the child to car in
which a young man and woman
were seated and drove away.
Saunders has since learned
that a woman answering the de-
scription of the kidnaper at,
tempted to give the child to a

Brodcd Quits Baseball
For Career as Ringmdn
Ex-Champ
On Yale
Team

NEW YORK, Jan. 26 U.N.S0.
Johnny Broaca has definitely
abandoned his baseball career and
may seek a livelihood in the ring
as a heavyweight boxer.
Broaca was a star pitcher at
Yale before the Yankees launched
him on a professional career. He
was also Yale's heavyweight box
ing champion. When Johnny
took off his glasses, donned box
ing gloves and let his right go he
had something on it.
Now, after five years of profes-
sional baseball, he is training his
right again for socking, not pitch
ing, purposes. He is still in his
twenties.
Up at Lowell, Mass, Broaca is
training in a gymnasium for some
thing and evidently it isn't base
bali. He is still on the American
Leagues voluntarily retired list
and is making no effort to
change back to the status Of an
active player.
1.-THE New York club has
notified Broaca that he must
apply through the Yankees for
reinstatement if he wants to
play baseball" Ed Barrow,
Yankee secretary, said today.
"He has not replied to this
letter; in fact, has had no COM
munication Of any kind with
us since he walked out last
summer"
AS pitcher, Broaca was worth
around $4,000 to the Yankees
and presumably could sign with
any other club at good money If
the New York club made a deal
for him.

British agents are spreading
propaganda in America designed
to drive this country into war
with Japan, Boake Carter, radio
commentator, declared in an
address at Constitution Hall last
night sponsored by the Washing
ton Forum.
RAPS DAVIS
Carter, a former British subject
and now a naturalized American,
said Norman Davis, American
ambassador -at-large, and certain
State Department officials were
in accord with the war plan which
is backed by the active heads Of
England's government.
England needs the military
and industrial support Of
America to keep its status quo,"
Carter declared. "She wants to
sit on the sidelines and cheer
while we fight her battles in the
Far East and in Europe"
The work of these agents is
rapidly taking effect, Carter said,
pointing out that they have built
up enmity toward Japan and fas,
cist states by spreading the belief
that these countries soon will
strike at the Panama Canal and
Americas continental and South
American neighbors.
4.YEAR WAR
Advocating expansion. Of North
and South American markets, Car
ter declared that the United
States financial interest in China
sis about as large as our 1887
chewing gum bill"
A war with Japan, Carter said
would cost 100000 and would
take four years to win. He pre-.
dicted the end Of such a conflict
would see the beginning of a to.
talitarian form of government
