Right difficult situation has long been recognized

outstanding job consolidating and administering the city
park and parkway system and helping coordinate that with
state and suburban systems.

AUTO ACCIDENTS
SHOW DECREASE
First Three Months Of Year
Show Fewer Deaths Than
Same Period In '3S

The first three months of this year
show seven fewer deaths than the
corresponding period Of 1888.
According to the summary Of the
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, IL,
or 81 per cent, all adults were pedes-
TRANS. Of this number, one was;
walking in road left side against traf-
fic; one walking in road right side
with traffic; one stepped from In
front or behind vehicle; two crossing
at intersection against signals, six at
intersection, no signal, five crossing
not at intersection; and one waiting
for or getting on or off bus-street
car. There were no child pedestrians
killed during the month of March.
seven, or rs per cent of the persons
killed were passengers, and four, or
IA percent, were the operators them
selves.
Most of the accidents occurred at
intersections, on dry-concrete roads,
clear days, during the hours Of 900
P. M. to 10 P. M. Saturday had the
largest number of deaths with twelve.
Passenger cars with apparently no
defects, operated by white, normal,
males, between the ages of 20 and
20, with 5 years or more experience,
and a resident of Baltimore City. A
majority of the causes of these acct
dents according to our summary is
charged to operating too fast for con-
ditions. There was one Hit-and-Run
case during the month of March.
Baltimore City is charged with six
teen accidents involving seventeen
deaths, which is more than the
month of February. There were elev-
en- accidents involving eleven deaths
in the counties.

HARRY BRIDGES
 CASE TO EXTEND
 INTO NEXT WEEK
Defense Wants 10 Get Tes- timony of Larry Doyle
 Into Hearing Record

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2. - The Harry Bridges deportation hearing now appears likely to extend into next week so that the defense can get into the record testimony of the man it wants most to question, Att torney Larry Doyle.
 Doyle was served with subpoena in Minnesota last Saturday night after having been hunted by Federal Marshals for several weeks.
 The Marshals were severely criti- cized when they failed to catch up with him immediately because of the fact that he had been photo graphed in public and at the same time giving interviews to newspaper men.
 The defense charges the former prosecutor from Portland assembled the evidence against Bridges in a move to discredit the labor move ment.
 The Australian-born CIO leader is charged with being Communist and having plans to overthrow the gov- ernment by violence.
 Several more government rebut- tai witnesses have appeared to link Bridges with the Communist party. They also attacked the credibility of the defense witnesses. Attorney William Penatt testified that he op- erated San Francisco restaurant. Pierres Chateau, on behalf of its creditors in 1885 and 1897 and was told by employees tn a t Harry Bridges frequently attended Com munist meetings there.
 Two Aberdeen, Wash. women, Mrs. Gertrude Davis and Mrs. Cor don Castor, wives of previous wit nesses, testified that their husbands attended meetings of the top faction Communist group in the fashionable Magnolia Bluff district of Seattle. The women said they were told that Bridges was present but they did not see him.

U-Boaf Raider Fires on Lifebodf of British
 Freighter ]

LISBON, Sept. T. - Twenty-nine survivors of the torpedoed British freighter Manaar, brought here to- day on the Dutch steamer Mars, declared two score persons are still missing.
 The survivors said their vessel was torpedoed without warning off Por- tugal las might and that 41 of their crew of 88 are as yet unaccounted for.
 The 1000 ton Manaar was bound from Calcutta to Liverpool.
 Survivors said the sub came to the surface after firing the torpedo, and shelled and destroyed one of the Manaar's life boats, killing one, and wounding four, one of which wound- ed crew members died enroute here.
 In addition to the 29 brought here on the Mars, Portuguese liner brought in 16 British and Hindu sur- vivors from the Manaar.

 It is believed that the Rome-Ber- lin axis is still operating, with Mus solini keeping his eyes trained on what the United States will do.
 Mussolini is said to have admitted that Great Britain and France de- manded he declare Italy at war with one side or the other, as they would not recognize any neutrality plea, Italy pleaded it has been unpre- pared for war with anybody, and has stalled for time to consider, it is said.
 Meanwhile, pressure from the Va- tican is still being brought to bear, seeking a neutral position for Italy.

GERMANS CLAIMING TO
 HAVE FINGER MOVEMENT
Berlin Fails to Mention Conflict Raging on
 Western Front
(By Associated Pressl


 Poiand's weary soldiers, with thoir backs almost against the outskirts of Warsaw, are caught in one of three huge pineers, ac- cording to the German military.
 Elsewhere in the battle area, German sources said Poland has lost the rich southwest district, while the Western army is de- fending POznan Province, cut off by a similar encircling move ment.
 France, however, is attempt ing to relieve pressure on the Poles by increasing the intensity of the push on Germany's West ern front, where, according to an official m m u n ique, heavy fighting is in progress.
 In Berlin, where no mention has yet been made of Western front activities, all attention is centered on the Eastern front, where it is said the ammunitiOns depot of Westerplatte has been surrendered to the Nazis after seven days of bombing from the sea and from the air.
