Bremen for the second night in
succession. Raj bombers last
night gave that German port and
manufacturing center such a
pounding that even high explosive
bombs bursts were obliterated by
sheets of flame.
In addition. for the twenty-ninth
time since the war began, British
planes also hammered Emden,
dropping both incendiaries and
high explosives.
German shipyards and factories,
upon which British bombers the
previous night poured 10000 fire
bombs, were pounded again in
last nights assault, and Emden
also took a heavy beating.

IN THE NEWS

THE plain and final facts are
i that injurious initiation Is not
impending In any form or In any
phase.
The country, on the contrary,
has been suffering from the ef-
fects of deflation.
The small prosperity which is
being restored Is due TO a minor
and insufficient amount of refla-
ton.
The country does not want re-
turn to the private control OF the
nations finances which prevailed
before the panic.
The country does not want an
other panic and IL does not want
private manipulation Of the coun-
try's finances.
The control of the finances OF
the government should be I'm the
hands of the governmental the
hands of the President AND the
Congress.
There is not too much control of
the country's finances by the gov
eminent.
II there is too much control by
the President, part of that control
can be diverted to Congress.
But the constitutional depart
ments of government should have
control of the nations finances
and should properly proceed TO
overcome the effects of deflation
and depression and the deflation-
airy effects of excessive taxation,
not merely by governmental eX-
penditure but by intelligent slim
ulation and encouragement of the
general Industrial activity and eN-
pansion on which wealth and the
distribution of wealth in wages
depend. and upon which any per
manent prosperity must soundly
be based.

CARDIFF. Wales, Jan. 3.-Deep
new bomb scars in this busy South
Wales seaport and manufacturing

the battering the city received
from Nazi raiders during the

The attack was a long one and

Many private houses, commercial
buildings and churches as we'll as

FIRE FIGHTERS ALERT

Authorities estimated that the
German raiders ''indiscriminately
jettisoned" several thousand in
cendiary bombs on all parts of
Cardiff, following them up with a
barrage of high explosives.
But the alertness and prompt
ness of Welsh fire-watchers and
fire fighters prevented all save a
few fires from developing into
major cenflagrations,
Although the raiders dropped
explosives wherever they saw
flames, by daybreak only a few
were still smouldering and the
rest had been extinguished.
Many boys and women braved
falling bombs and shrapnel from
anti-aircraft guns TO assist the fire
brigades.

He told the lawmakers that they
must appropriate more money for
hospitals and to equip those new
institutions which now stand
vacant, but he said the program
should not necessitate increased
taxes.
81 recognize that this is
difficult objective" Van Wagner
continued. ut can be attained
through concerted action of all
state departments in curtailing
unnecessary expenditures and a
continued improvement in the
economic structure of the state.
There Is sound basis for a be-
lief that state revenues will be
increased for the next fiscal year
by at least 25 per cent"
First change in the tax system,
he said, should be revision of the
intangible tax law. which became
effective January /. Stocks and
bonds should be assessed at
market value instead of face
value, he declared.
The governor recommended that
all tax collecting agencies be COM
bined in a single financial depart
ment.
Recognizing the fact that he
must work with more Republicans
than Democrats, the chief execu-
tive said:
1.-THE results Of the election
present a challenge that will test
each one of us. The people of
Michigan expect us to use team
work, TO cooperate. to strive
together for the common good.

governor will make every effort
TO lead the way in teamwork

THE reason given for the en-
i traordinary demand Is to pre-
vent "any and all inflationary ten
denotes which may have been or
may be Induced by expansion pres
sure on the defense program"
Up to date there has not been
any initiation nor any undesirable
inflationary tendencies.
There has not been. in fact, any
sufficient relation from the low
point of deflation in 1881.
The country has suffered for
many years under the effects of
the deflatiOn of the depression
era. and under the deflationary eff
feet of the high taxation which
followed.
Money has been withdrawn from
circulation and from use in in
dustrial activity by excessive tax
atieH.
Expansion in industry has been
prevented, - unemployment has
been hampered,-the depression
and its unhappy effects have been
unduly prolonged by deflation, and
by the high taxation which is
definitely a defIationary measure
since it takes money away from
industry and employment and de-
livers II to incompetent and I'M
productive politicians.
Now the slightest tendency
towards wholly proper and neees-
sary- relation is opposed by the
high financial interests repre-
sented in the Federal Reserve
System.
Yet-the small return OF pros
pcrity that we have had is due 10
this slight Probationary tendency.
THE extensive program of CON
i struction by government for
the defense of the nation has two
benefits.
1t provides for the protection OF
our people, and II adds TO their
prosperity by putting money into
circulation and to their gainful
employment by creating. albeit
temporarily, a demand for labor.
Therefore the attack of the Fed
eral Reserve System is not only
an attack on necessary relation
but it is indirectly an attack upon
the defense program of the gov
eminent.
The country will never have any
real and stable prosperity until
there is adequate relation and a
permanent restoration of indus
trial activity and n necessary
amount of circulating media to

business of this business nation.
Government expenditure has at
best only a temporary effect
first, because its Probationary re-
suit Is soon slowed up and even
tually overcome by the deflation
consequent upon high taxation;
and second, because the sources OF
income from taxation are limited
and will eventually be exhausted
by growing taxes.
nERMANENT prosperity must
1 positively and obviously be
dependent upon natural and unre-
stricted Industrial activity.
That activity will provide en-
ployment and create the wealth
upon the distribution OF which In
wages and dividends prosperity Is
based.
The expansion of government
construction is, as we all know
full well by this time, merely prim-
ins the economic pump.
The full flow of permanent
prosperity must be derived from
the deep wells and springs and
streams OF industry.
But there should be no COM
plant from high finance about the
small prosperity and the small re-
flatiOn which has been produced
by printing the pump-especially
when, as now, the pump printing
is in the interests OF national de-
tense.
The idea of placing the control
of the finances of the country in
the hands of a group of private
financial institutions, even though
headed by a public board, is a pre-
posterous proposition.
1t might mean return to con-
ditiOns as bad as those which pre-
vailed before the panic of 1929.
But opposition to the extraor-
binary proposals of the Federal
Reserve System d0es-not mean
that there might not properly be
some Limitation to the financial
powers of the President.
IL does mean, however, that
those powers should be transferred
TO the regular departments of gov
eminent where they belong, and
certainly not be transferred TO pri-
vate or semi-private financial
interests TO be used. mayhap, for
financial manipulation or specula-
ton or for the oppression of that
main and major body OF business
which would be dependent upon
such financial powers.

Cleveland, April e-It's 8 story when nine Hawaiian boxers travel 5000 miles for one appearance.
 It is @ colorful squad that Cleve- land is entertaining. It is not ex- actly Q league of nations inasnuch as all the boys are of American nationally, but in race ancestry there is @ considerable variety = Caucasian, Filipino, Chinese, Jap anese and others.
 The boys from the flowery archipelago tackle the Cleveland Golden Gloves champions, April IA.
 The show is for the fund of the Amateur Boxing Trainers Asso- citation of northeastern Ohio, which takes good care of its boys.
 The islanders travel in style with Jack Botelho, secretary of the A. A. U., ard two trainers, Shar- key Wright and Timo Phillips.
 The trip Is their reward for stir- vlying the island trials, which play- ed to 55,000 persons and $26,000.

team had chance to equal the classic outfit that featured Babe Herman-only big league outfieldre ever to be struck on the head by a ball while attempting to catch a pop fly and only man ever to steal second base while 1t was occupied by team-mate.
 Here and there a gray-bearded codger, who remembered the good old days when Mungo was fined $l O00 lick, complained about the paltry $200 that he got stuck for breaking training this year. But with most of the fans 1t was the principle of the tihng, not the money. Good old Mungo wasn't letting them down and that's al lthat mattered.
 What warmed the hearts of the fans was the direct approach tech- nique that Mungo used in breaking training. None of this subtle stuff of staging celebration in the privacy of hotel room. Mungo simply stepped into the bar of the Nacional Hotel in Havana, made sweeping gesture with his pitching arm and called for drinks for everybody In the houGe-Mungo included. Among the interested spectators were Man ager Durocher and Coach Charley Dressen. who took sasparilla and umbrage.
 Home Again
 Suspended and fined. Mungo has been doing penance with the Mon- treal club of the International League. Then, with all the fury and suddenness of rainstorm breaking on Sunday afternoon when dou- ble-header was scheduled, MacPhail sent telegram to Durocher an- nouncing that Mungo had been re- instated and was enroute to the family fireside.
 Durocher, chin deep in plans for a pitching staff that did not neces- sarily include MT. Mungo, blew higher than rookie southpaw with men on bases and Mize at bat. "If ever catch Mungo taking e drink again, either he leaves the ball club or I resign" Durocher said in the first communique of a war that threatens to continue all summer. Yes, spring has come to Brooklyn the faithful are gathering at the ticket windows and all's right with the world.

GoOdfeIlow, Wares Out of Action Tonight; Bruins
 Lose COwley

Boston, April 8.--(UP)-With all their cripples ready for service ex- cept center Bill Cowley, the Bos- ton Bruins ruled oddy-on favorites to whip the Detroit Red Wings to- night In the second game of their best of -seven series for the Stanley Cup hockey championship.
 Winger Bobby Bauer, sidelined when Boston won the opener Sum- day night, was set to play with Q new shoulder pad constructed by Trainer Hammy Moore. Centers Milt Schmidt and Mel Hill, who suf- fered leg and arm injuries, respec- lively, in the first game, also will skate.
 Meanwhile. Detroit, already weak ened by loss of defenseman Ebbie Goodfelolw, sustained another set- back when 1t was learned that Ed- die Wares, capable winger, will be out with q recurrene of shoulder injury that crippled him for several weeks until Sunday.
 A second triumph would give Bos- ton commanding lead in the series though the third and fourth games will be contested at Detroit. Other games, if required, will alternate on Boston and Detroit ice.
 The Red Wings promoted young Eddie Bruneteau to the Alec Mot ter-Carl Liscombe line and moved Bill Jennings up with Syd Abel and Don Crosse.
 Manager Jack Adams of Detroi; called his squad together for a spe- cial meeting yesterday and report edly blasted the players for their indifferent showing in the first SC minutes of the opener. Badly out played, the Wings scored twice ifl the final 10 minutes to lose, 3-2.

Lowell. Mass, April 8--CUP)--My choice to win the Boston A. A. marathon on April 19 is "Tarzan" Brown. The Rhode Island Indian will have to be at his best, how ever, to beat Johnny Kelley of Arr lington.
 Fred McGlone of Boston is the big dark -horse threat. Paul Donate should be up there with the front runers. Fred Brown, Joe Smith and Andre Brunelle are all improved runners liable to furnish an upset.
 I think am set for my best showing yet in the B. A. A. It will depend on the day and my condi- tion. I like a rainy day. not too cold or too warm. My training thus far has been limited due to my work in national defense as a gas cutter at Boston navy yard.
 This will be my fifth attempt to win the B. A. A. race. Tn 1885 I was 63d and improved to 42d the following year. My best showing was in 1899 when I finished 18th. Last year I was 18th.
 My present weight is 168 pounds and I am feet II inches tall. I was born at Seekonk, Mass, July i8, 1913, and am single.
