g MEN HELD FOR
 CONTEMPLATING

Boston, June 29-(UP)-Nine men were held for questioning by police and secret service agents to- day in connection with a nation- wide counterfeiting ring believed to have headquarters in New York city.
 The suspects were arrested last night after a two-week investiga- tion In a pocket of one, police said, a spurious $10 bill was found.
 Even as the men were being ques- toned at the federal building, an automobile drew up in front of a Hanover street store and a man alighted and entered the store. When the storekeeper became sus- picious of $10 bill rendered in pay ment of a small purchase, the man grabbed the bill, ran back to the car and sped away. A police car chased the automobile, but was out distanced.

YOUTH IS HANGED IN JERUSALEM
Execution Follows Night of TerrOr-PrOtests Fail
 to Halt Death Penalty

Jerusalem, June 29.-UP) .-Solo- mon Ben Joseph, 18-year-old Jew, was hanged in Acre prison today af- ter wild night of terror in which Jews protesting the execution, clash ed with British police.
 The execution took place on the Jewish semi-festival day of the new moon. There had been reports that British authorities had decided to postpone the execution until tomor- row in fear of violent demonstra- tions on the feast day.
 "I dies with the name-Jabotinsky (president of the Zion Revisionist organization on my lips, sacrificing my life and hoping that the Jewish nation will learn the lesson of the harmfulness of the last two years of self-restraint," were JoSeph's last words.
 Joseph was convicted of terror ism. He fired on an Arab bus and was found in possession of two piS- tols and five bombs. Jewish anger has mounted steadily since he was sentenced to death by British mili- tary court.
 Angry crowds of Jews in Jeru- salem's narrow, twisting streets, clashed several times with the Brit ish police who wore steel helmets and carried heavy cudgels. Two policemen were stoned and injured and six Jewish demonstrators were arrested.
 Military authorities decreed mar tial law, fearing the diSorderly dem- onstrations would get out of hand.
 Jewish shops were closed because of menacing crowds.
 The British high commissioner, Sir Harold MacMichael, was urged to extend clemency in last-minute petitions signed by Jewish citizens who have received honors from the British government. Additional ap- peals for the youth were received from Jewish communities through out the world.
 As the time for the execution ap- preached, Jewish feeling through out the country ran high. Circulars calling for demonstrations were dis tributed.
 Abraham Aheen, IT, who was sen fenced to death for the same crime, had his sentence commuted to life Imprisonment. A third youth, Sha- lom Zurabin, was ordered confined as criminally insane.

COP MUST GET
 PROFESSIONALLY
Bruce Barton Claims Great Reformer Always Fails
 as Administrator

Indianapolis, Ind, June 29-(UP) The Republican party should ap- propriate the magic of the peoples vast loyalty and faith" in President Roosevelt, Bruce Barton, New York congressman and advertising execu- tive, declared today in the keynote speech to the Indiana Republican state convention.
 To accomplish that, he said, the Republicans and business must make the people understand that they are first in our thinking" and must present sound program that will create real jobs instead of the new deals despair and wasteful bureaucracy.
 "No man can possibly over-esti- mate what it will mean to America to have the country administered again by a Republican party cleansed, chastened, rededicated to service" he said.
 Barton said the secret of MT. Roosevelts success is that men and women who have been neglected in American life believe rightly or wrongly that "they have found a friend'-that he lis trying to do something about it."
 T am one of those who was thrill ed to his finger tips by the inaug- ural address of March 4, 1885," he said. That single utterance re-lit the lamp of hope for millions and revived our faith in the capacity of the American people to rise above their fears. For that great message, for many needed reforms, and for what I believe is his sincere in terest in the welfare of the common man, I praise the president.
 When, having said that, I go on to say that the new deal has pass ed out of its period of glory, and is now begged down in mire of aim- lessness and failure, I speak in no narrow partisan terms. It is pain fully evident-as history has shown SO many times before-that great reformers almost invariably fail as administrators. From the admins trative angle Washington is night mare"
 The opportunity and mission of the Republican party and of busi- ness, he said, is to put people back to work by making them understand that their future is safer when gov- ernment is soundly managed than when government, even under the most sincere and attractive leader ship, is covering up its failure by the lavish expenditure of borrowed money"

Former Inmate O
 County Jail Called
(Continued from Page l)

Smith was released election day although his sentence would ordln- arily have run considerably past that time. Hayes was sent to jail Sep tember g, 1887, when he failed to pay a fine of $lOO and costs impos- ed on him in superior court by Judge Edwin c. DickenSon. Undei such circumstances he would have been in jail last October 5.
 Government Agents?
 There is little doubt that the two unidentified men who went from the jury room to the post office are gov- ernment investigators of some de- partment The fact that they con- ferred with MT. Babin might mean that they intend to take over an office in the federal building. Mir Babin recently provided the internal revenue men with an office in the building, to assist them in making their check on the income reports filed by several local persons.
 The entire Alcorn staff was on hand this morning for the con- tinuation of the probe. Detective Greer went to the house adjacent to the courthouse on Kendrick ave- nue shortly after g o'clock and emerged with an unidentified young man who accompanied him toward the center. The young man did not return, but shortly thereafter the two witnesses appeared.

MERRITT PARKWAY IS OPENED TODAY

Norwalk, Conn, June 29-CUP)- The first link in the new four-lane Merritt Parkway officially was opened here today by Governor Wilbur L. Cross at ceremonies at tended by state and federal officials.
 The stretch opened today runs from Greenwich to Norwalk, a dis tance of about IT miles. The re- mainder of the $2O,00O,O0O parkway, which, when completed, will extend to Trumbull, will be opened grad ually.
 Congressman Alfred N. Phillips, Jr., Stamford, who regarded the in- vitation of former State Highway Commissioner John A. Macdonald to the exercise as an insult" to Fair field county residents and the Bridgeport grand jury, did not at- tend the ceremonies.
 The governor, in radio address last night, said today should mark a "red letter day" in Connecticut's history.
 Connecticut can take pride" he said, "in having one of the most beautiful scenic parkways in the country"

 Maybe we'll try other tactics, 7" she shouted down to her attorney from her vantage point on the sec- ond floor. He had made another of his many trips here to take her away, but felt that this time she really meant it.
 Blanchard, divorced and the fath- CT of two grown children, met the comedy divorcee through his daugh- ter. She arrived at Blanchard's five acre estate June 20 and announced, despite her apparent lack of ward robe, that she was staying for while. In fact, she said she thought she'd stay until Blanchard kept his promise" to marry her.
 She left her children in the care of nursemaid at Scarsdale.
 Blanchard left the same day after hiring four detectives to watch the property.

 As regards this suggestion, it was the belief here that the Nationalists made it with the approval of Mus Solini.
 It was reported that the British ambassador received urgent instruc- tions yesterday to advise Count Galeazzo Ciano, foreign minister of the British governments increasing aanxiety over "indiscriminate bomb ing of foreign ships and to solicit Italian assistance in an attempt to stop the attacks.
 Lord Perth was said to have pointed out that cessation of the attacks would be desirable in the interest of British-Italian relations particularly as the British-Italian friendship treaty is based on the assumption that the Spanish Civil War will end soon.

definitely would not endorse any candidate until after it's September convention.
 He said he had received no com munications from Washington head quarters urging the State Fedora ton to support the candidacy of U. s. Senator Augustine Lonergan a conservative now facing a spread ing revolt in the state.
 "As far as I am acquainted, Clerkin said, "Lonergan has backed us up on all our labor legislation
 But" he went on, T will say he has crossed up the administration on some of the things it wanted. '
 Records To Be Ready
 Clerkin disclosed the Federation this year again would distribute to all It's members, following the major party nominating conventions, a circular describing the labor rec ords of the candidates.
 It was not known at the present time just what action the Commit tee for Industrial Organization or labor's partisan league, which claims about 30,000 votes in the state would do regarding the fall cleo tions.
 Some reports were that these groups would place an individual ticket in the field, while endorsing certain candidates of other parties
 A persistent rumor said these groups may support the candidacy of Socialist Mayor Jasper McLevy Bridgeport, for governor, unless the Democartic party nominates candi- dates friendly to it's cause.

BUDCE TO MEET AUSTIN IN FINAL

tCOnJ0ueQ rom rage U the opening three games at love. Puncec took the fourth game on service. Budge lost only Il points during the entire set.
 Puncec tried to make match of it in the last set. He forged into a 31 lead and then was ahead AZ. Budge again had trouble with his backhand and drove into the net and also lost points as Puncec made excellent retrieveS and returned them for passing-shot winners.
 But Budge quickly settled down when he faced the danger of losing his first set of the tournament. He scored with running backhanders and his cross-court drives clipped the sidelines and corners for winners
 In the final game, which he won on service, Budge's serves and drives virtually smoked. He gave up only one point in that game-a double fault.
 Austin's victory was expected but he amazed capacity crowd of 20.- 900 by turning in straight set tri- umph over the 23-year-old German who is the worlds No. 3 ranking player.

 To Determine Session
 It is bevieved that the grand jury will decide this afternoon as to the start and the duration of their next adjournment. They undoubtedly were considering that this morning, when, for almost an hour there were no witnesses or visitors present MT. Alcorn suggested that the jury would adjourn because of the num- erous matters which Woud require his attention. Well have court here and court in Hartford" he said.
 The investigation of the reported jail release started just prior to the last adjournment of the jury. At that time several court attaches and records, and information from the jail were called before the jury.

closed that they were the strongest ever built in China. They include elaborate airfields equipped with dugout hangars capable of protect ing more than 50 planes. Poyang lake, they said, was heavily mined. Before the war it served as the training grounds for the Chinese navy's mine laying corps. The highway leading from the lake to Nanchang was said to be elaborately mined while there also is an ex- cellent network of modern high ways to assure speeding of com- munication and supply lines to Han- koW.
 They said that this maze of for tifications and concrete pillboXes, planned by Chinas German tech nicians, would inevitably make a Japanase advance a costly one.
 Some observers believed that the Chinese air force, said to be serv- ing as a Russian testing school against Japanese equipment, prob ably would become unprecedently active during the remainder of the HankoW campaign. In the last ten days, it was said, several hundred new Soviet planes, have been de- livered to the Chinese. Most of them have been concentrated in the YangtSe river valley
 Meanwhile, reports from the front disclosed that heavy attachments of Japanese troops recently marched toward HangchoW, from where they were expected to move westward along the railroad to Nanchang. It was pointed out that it probably would be necessary for the Japanese to take at least one good railroad before storming HankoW because of difficulty of supplying their large forces only by means of the Yangtse river.

twisted one of Dusty's Hopping ears
around her forefinger. Dusty lolled his
tongue and sighed in contentment.
Next to chasing rabbits there was
nothing he liked better than having his
ears twisted. unless it was hunting a
glove or an old shoe or pocket
book that either Joe or Sylvia had
hidden.
Joe lay awake that night and
thought about what Sylvia had said
He felt guilty and ashamed but
when you haven't enough to eat and
you own some property that would
bring an easy thousand dollars on
the open market you can't help think
Ing about it.
Sylvias aunt had given them Dusty
the week before they left for Hol-
lywood He was seven weeks old,
pure-bred Springer spaniel, black as
coal and intelligent.
Dusty had been great comfort to
them after they reached Hollywood.
He took their minds off the business
of wondering when Joe was going to
get q break with his voice in some
big picture. The odd jobs he picked
up at night spots and private clubs
singing in pictures were barely enough
to keep them alive. They had hung on,
hoping for the best, teaching Dusty
tricks. until now their last hope was
shattered. Joe had practically been
promised a part In Moonlight Love.~
They had exhausted their last re-
source, waiting for the picture to be
cast. And this morning word had
been received that the casting was
completed, and Joes name was
omitted.
They were broke and hungry, with
the rent and telephone bill due.
THE next morning Joe decided to SO
down onto the boulevard. Some
times on the boulevard he met some
one he knew and would start talking
and perhaps get line on something.
> He put Dusty on his leash and started
out. Sylvia gave Dusty fond hug
before she let him go. but she didn't
say word and neither did Joe.
All the way downtown he kept
thinking about what Sylvia had said.
while Dusty ranged at the limit Of
his leash and wagged his tail and
shifted and looked up at Joe and really
had a fine time.
Joe walked slowly up the boulevard.
People turned to stare at Dusty. They
always did He was a pure bred,
magnificent specimen of his breed.
Joe turned down Vine street. Just
below Selma some children were play
ing on the lawn. One of them was

and hugged Dusty. Dusty looked
proudly at Joe, wagged his stubby tail
and licked the little girls ear.
Smart dog" said voice.
Joe turned. car had stopped at
the curb. A small, rotund man with a
friendly face had emerged onto the
sidewalk. Joe nodded. Pure bred
Springer. They're all smart
Are they?" said the little man.
His eyes twinkled. Like to sell him?"
Joe said nothing. He felt a queer
prickling at the base of his skull.
Like to sell him?" said the man
again.
How much?" said Joe, not looking
at him.
Nine hundred"
Joe swallowed hard. The man knew
dogs all right. Dusty came over
and sat down on the toe of his shoe
and lolled out his tongue Joe reached
down. and Dusty licked his hand.
His ears went back, then pricked up.
He wanted Joe to snap on the leash. so
they could continue their adventurous
walk
Joe thought of Sylvia. She was
probably hungry. The only alternative
was city relief A man has his pride.
He remembered the hug Sylvia had
given Dusty before they left. He
thought of the way Dusty would nip
at their toes when they were getting
dressed in the morning,
He shook his head mo-" he said.
Mo! Not for twice that amount"
He snapped on Dusty's leash.
The rotund man laughed. Then
how about hiring him? You, too, Of
course. We're making a picture that
requires a cute dog who will 90 find
things that have been hidden"
Joe threw up his head. "What?"
Think 1t over" said the man.
Pay would be s25 day. Here's nv
card" He smiled. Hope I didn't in
suit you with that nine hundred Of
fer. Your dogs worth two thousand,
If cent. Never saw a pure black
Springer with those lines. Be sure to
look me up. If $25 doesn't suit you
We can probably talk terms"
Joe stood on the curb and watched
the black Limousine recede He glanced
at the card, then down at Dusty.
Dusty was watching him expectantly.
He wanted to walk some more. Joe
slipped the card into his pocket and
started up Vine street at a pace that
rather surprised Dusty.

NO Closed Shop
For The County
Says The Board
C. O m m i s siOners Turn
Down Request to Hire
Only Union Trucks.

At its regular meeting this week
in the court house in Pine City, the
county board was confronted with a
list of requests from the Local Union
No. 346 of the General Truck Drivers
and Helpers of Duluth. The first re-
quest had to do with wages and that
was complied with, calling for raise
from SIPS per hour to $1.50 on
mucker loading.
The other demands were as follows:
That no docking of less than one
hour on tie-ups or breakdowns and
time lost less than one hour shall
not be accumulative and locked at
end of shift or day.
Minimum day of not less than four
hours.
County shall hire only union trucks
in good standing.
The board turned down all of the
requests except the one having to do
with the wages.
The remainder of the time of the
board was occupied mainly in trans
action of routine business.
