The Phoenix police department
displayed only an academic interest
In the disappearance Of the woman
who shot her two best girl friends
here eight years ago.
As Chief Of Detectives J. B. Mac
Key put it:
She'll Turn Up
She'll turn up on, of these days
OF her own accord. What the public
wants from our department is no
man hunt for the tiger woman but
q good strong campaign against the
robberies and the holdups that have
been Fostering Phoenix lately"
In Southern California, however,
officers were alert to apprehend the
blonde killer. rs
A squad Of police was In hiding ct

DR.. Judd said he had no idea where
his wife might be, but hoped she

burns Of the shoulders. Broderson
and Jones failed to respond to the
emergency treatment of the fire de-
partment inhalator crew and the
accident squad Of the Connecticut
Light and Power Company.
Dr. Edward II. Kirschbaum. medi-
cal examiner, pronounced the men
dead shortly before 4 O'Clock. The
accident occurred at 8 O'Clock.
Story Of Worhmen
Workmen told Coroner Hennessy
last night that the crane operator
was warned to keep the boom away
from the wires which carry power
to all the plants in that district.
Perryis escape was attributed to the
fact that he was standing on cork
mat.
witnesses said that the men, who
were working on an addition to the
Tool Company plant, were fasten-
ing the large hook Of the crane to
the steel girder, when the cable
swung and came In contact with
the wire.
Coroner Hennessy said today that
the construction company has been
ordered to move the crane from its
position close to the deadly wires.
He said that it is impossible to in
sulate the high voltage lines. but
that some cranes or other equip
ment that may be used in proximity
to such wires, are insulated.
Buildings Inspector Patrick Car
lin and Electrical Inspector Martin
ORourke were also questioned by
Coroner Hennessy.

War Despite Encyclical

be extended to military operations in
the future. Nor is there any reason
to over-estimate his willingness to
accept the persistent challenge Of the
British and French to attack the
western front, where the great forti-
f1cations on both sides assure the of-
fensive army win suffer huge losses.
But there have been developments
supporting the reports Of an irnpcnd-
ing Nazi attack by air to strengthen
Hitler's U-boat battle against the
British blockade. The Nazi press has
encouraged the German people to
believe that the power Of the Nazi
air force will soon be felt by the
British. German reconnaissance
planes have made Q thorough survey
on flights across the North Sea. Hit
Ter has said that the British refused
his outstretched hand and would Suf-
fer for it-thus leaving 1t up to the
Nazis to strike.
On Allied Side
On the Allied side, both the Brit
ish and French are ready for either
land or sea operations. Prime Minis
ter Neville Chamberlain informed
the house Of commons. Or they are
ready to continue their economic
strangulation of the reich II Hitler
dares risk . waiting course.
In those circumstances, the pope's
encyclical was read with special In
terest because Of an indirect attack
on the totalitarian systems in Ger
many and Soviet Russia and because
he sought-in the absence Of imme-
diate peace hopes-t0 look forward
to the day when order might be re-
stored In Europe.
The new order when war ends, the
pope said, must rest on natural law
and divine revelation" instead Of on
the quicksands Of selfish interests
Of groups or individuc Is"
State Il Not Ultimate
The state cannot be considered as
lie ultimate, with all >eise subor-
dinated to it as in Germany and
Russia, the Pope said, Is that phi
!nsophy could only harm the true
and lasting prosperity Of nations.
It Is quite true, he said, that civil
officials can for q time assume OBJ
solute autonomy on weak and un-
steady foundations" but such des-
potism eventually must crumble.
In these remarks the Pope directed
his challenge at the neopaganism
and atheism of Germany and Rus
STA, but Of Italy he said that ''our
heart is joyous at the thought that
we can count among friendly powers
our dear Italy,"
On the diplomatic front, the great
est interest centered in the efforts
Of Britain and France to capitalize
on their triumph In completing a
mutual aid pact with Turkey. one
Of their chief objectives IN following
up that victory was to avoid alien
ating Soviet Russia and another was
to unite the Moslem world behind
the Allied cause.
No Soviet Peace Yet
So far, there appeared to be little
definite progress toward q recon-
Citation with the Soviets, although
there also was no indication that
Moscow would give Germany more
than economic aid. But . broad

UNCLE RAYS CORNER
On the southern coast of England

On the southern coast Of England
is Portsmouth, an important sea-
port and the home of more than a
quarter of million people.
One hundred and twenty years
ago John Dickens and his family
lived in suburb of Portsmouth.
Mr.. Dickens was clerk and earned
enough money to take care Of his
wife and children.
Among the children was q Z
year-old boy, Charles Dickens. He
had learned a little about the art
Of reading, having been taught by
his mother.
In those days schools were not
free. II parents knew how to read
and write, they might teach their
children. If they could AFFORD to
pay for teaching, their children
might be sent to school.
BY and by little Charles was en-
tered in a school. He took great
interest in his studies, mad made
better progress than most of the
other pupils.
Then came blow to the family.
Mr.. Dickens lost his job. Moving
to London. he tried to earn a living
IN different work, but had little
success
Things went from bad to worse,
with debts piling up which Mr..
Dickens could not pay. Then came
the dreadful time when officers of
the law put him under arrest. He

Charles was provided with room
in a lodging house. He did not
know who paid his rent. AS to his
meals, he had to buy them with his
6 shillings.
For breakfast he usually had "a
penny cottage loaf and q penny
worth Of milk" In the evening he
ate bread and cheese in his own
room. Between those meals he
bought coffee, sweets and "a slice
of pudding" when his money made
1t possible.
At the blacking factory Charles
covered jars Of blacking with oil
paper and blue paper, then pasted
printed labels on them. He treated
thousands Of Jars in this way as the
months went by.
There were other boys at the fac
tory, half a dozen Of them. One
was Bob Fagin. an orphan, who
proved quite friendly. Later Bob
was to be named as character in
q book called "Oliver Twist"

The three of spades was opened.
East won with the king and re-

with the queen and leading the four
of hearts. Now If West had gone
right up with the queen he could
have beaten the hand. But he made
the mistake of playing the deuce,
whereupon dummy's jack won the
trick. Mr.. Lee now cashed the ace
king of hearts. discarding a small
diamond from dummy, led the club
and finessed, cashed the ace OF
spades and then trumped the last
spade in his own hand. He then
entered dummy with the ace OF dia-
monds, cashed the ace of clubs and
ruffed club with his one remaining
trump, thereby making five trump
tricks, two clubs, two spades and a
diamond for his contract, and allow
ing the unfortunate West to use his
high trump to trump his partners
