Cardinal 0'ConneII

BY the Associated Press,

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-William
Cardinal O'Connell of Boston, SEN
ior cardinal of the United States,
arrived today from Nassau, Bahamas,
aboard the Britannia. en- route to
Rome to attend the meeting of the
College of Cardinals.
He said in an interview the late
Pope Plus XII was "a fearless cham
pion of truth and right"
His whole life as a supreme pom
tiff was one of fortnight courage, "
said Cardinal O'Connell. He told
me once several years ago that he
never knew what fear meant. That
was exemplified when, as a young
priest on summer vacations, he
would climb the highest of the Ital-
ian Alps.
That quality of mind and char
acter was his outstanding mark. In
a world troubled as it is today, it
was blessing of God that we had
him for a source of strength. His
forward honesty Of dealing with ma
tions was based not on a policy of
mere chance, but upon principle.
That was the guidance in all his
actions"
Cardinal O'Connell will sail for
Rome Wednesday on the Saturnia,
accompanied by his secretary. Msgr.
j. F.. Minihan, and Msgr. NJ. j.

Trial Examiner Henry Fits ruled

Mr.. Fits rejected a Transamerica
motion to withhold the records. The
s. E. c. Is conducting a hearing on
q commission order to determine
whether Transamerica securities
should be suspended from stock ex-
changes because of alleged false or
misleading statements in the reg

The Transamerica motion fol-
lowed the production of the records
by Herbert H. Smith, jr., assistant
manager Of the San Francisco of1ice,
IN obedience to subpoena.
William Stanley, Transamerica
lawyer, argued that, while Mr.. Smith
might be required to produce the
records, the commission could not
examine them until it had proven
that the data in the records was
proper legal evidence.
Mr.. Fits said, however, Trans
america had no legal right to make
the motion, and, on another motion
by counsel for Mr.. Smith, Mr.. Fits
ruled that Mr.. Smith should permit
the commissioners investigators to
look into the records.

New Booklet Describes
Fifty Ailments That

BACKGROUND

For long time our Washington
Bureau has been intending to issue
q booklet on health, not a cure-all
to take the place of doctor, but to
tell when one is really needed. The
new HOME DOCTOR BOOK that
has just come of the press is an
up-to-date substitute for the old
fashioned family doctor book that
had an important place in every
American home. 1t does not attempt
diagnosis or prescribe a cure, but
1t does list and describe over so of
the most common ailments of man.
kind clearly and tersely. The early
recognition of symptoms of serious
disease may spell the difference be-
tween life and death. If you are sick
don't neglect it, and don't do the
wrong thing. Your copy of the
HOME DOCTOR BOOK is waiting
for you if you will send your name
and address with 10 cents.
