Union Threatens
Coastwide Strike

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22. (UP)
The Sailors Union of the Pacific
today threatened to "tie up the
whole Pacific coast" if seven Dan
ish vessels commandeered by the
government are put into operation
in Pacific waters under foreign reg
istry and manned by foreign crews
Harry Lundberg, secretary of the
Sailors union, said the local men,
bership had demanded an immed-
late coastwide referendum to au-
thorize a strike IF American seamen
aren't given chance to sail these
ships at American wages
They're going to register those
ships under the Panamanian flag
and sail the ships with foreign
crews at coolie wages" said Lund-
berg. We're not going to let them
tear down the wage standards we've
worked years to establish. It's a
plain union n-busting scheme"

Police Explode
kidnapping Story

A Filipinos wild story OF kid
naping and robbery was exploded
by law enforcement officers Tues
day after they investigated events
coincident with the firing of six
bullet holes through a coupe he
borrowed from his brother to drive
to Imperial Valley from Los An
geles.
Apparently, officers said, Bern
ardino Asuncion fired six bullet
holes through the car in an at
tempt to bolster kidnapping and
robbery story told to explain why
he did not have the money his
brother loaned him for the trip.
Officers in Ell Centro were sus-
picious when they noted the bull
lets had been fired from inside the
car. They released the islander.
The alleged kidnapping and robbery
took place near Beaumont and As
uncion was arrested in Ell Centre.

US. Offers TO Buy
Russian Materials

WASHINGTON, July %. (UP)-
Federal Loan Administrator Jesse
Jones announced today that the
United States has offered to buy
substantial quantities of strategic
materials from Soviet Russia.
Jones told a press conference he
had discussed the possibility of such
purchases with Russian Ambassador
Constantine Oumansky. But he
added that the possibility of any
such transaction in the near future
was remote because of shipping
difficulties.
Jones said the United States was
particularly interested in purchas-
ing manganese and chrome ore
from Russia, and in return the
Russians could use cash exchange
derived in this manner for purchase
of war materials in the United
States.

The mounted men were preceded
in the line of march by the COM
mand troop and mechanized units.
All men carried a complete compile

1,750 persons employed by the Ver-
non, Cal, plant of the Aluminium

Among |. V. Cities

Ell Centre Tuesday became
the focal point in Imperial
Valley for contributions OF
aluminium to be used in ma
tional defense.
City councilmen Monday night
accepted the responsibility at the
request of state officials handling
aluminium collection in California.
Under the state plan, each city
in the valley will accept aluminium
contributions and later transport
the collection to Ell Centre where
it will be weighed and the city given
certified weight certificate.
"Details of the collection are be-
ing completed today Mayor Robert
Hatton said Tuesday. 1--WE were ask
ed to provide a warehouse and
scales and to keep a caretaker at
the warehouse to weigh large con-
tributions and issue the weight GER
tificateS.
I'VE must contact the other cities
in the valley and finish arrange
ments to accept the aluminium be-
fore we can ask the public to bring
their aluminium pots and pans to
add to the vast total now being
collected in California
MAJOR Hatton said he and the
city council hoped to have all ar
rangements complete Wednesday
and everything in readiness to issue
the call for contributions.
Councilmen expressed the hope
that FL CentranS will keep their
contributions at home until they
get a place to store them.

Guggenheim Gives
Money to Chorines;;
Widow, Son Cut Off
ShOwgirls Get Fortune
OF Industrialist as
Family Is Ignored

NEW YORK, July % (UP)
The late William Guggen-
helm, retired industrialist
and amateur poet, cut off his
widow and son without a
cent in his will, it was disclosed to-
day, and left an estate valued un-
officially at upwards of $1,000,000'
to four former showgirls.
Guggenheim, who died last June
81 at 70, explained in his will that
he made no provision here for my
wife, Aimee S. Guggenheim, or my
son, William G.. Guggenheim, jr.,
because of the fact that 1 have
amply provided for them during
my lifetime
The showgirls, among whom the
estate is to be distributed share
and share alike" according to the
will, are:
Lillyan Andrus of 1903 North Lau-
rel avenue, Hollywood, Calf; Mary
Alice Rice of New York, former
ziegfeld Follies girl; Mildred Borst
of New York and North Haven,
Conn, former Ziegfeld Follies and
Earl Carroll Vanities performer, and
Florence Sullivan of New York.
The will, dated Jan. 81, 1910, will
be filed for probate within a few
days, Guggenheim's attorneys, Grif-
fiths and Content, said.
A codicil was found dated July
l, 1910, eliminating Miss Andrus
from a share of the estate, but at
torneys believed it was invalid be-
cause it had only one witness, Char
les zika, Guggenheims secretary.
What action if any Mrs. Guggen-
helm, the industrialist's second wife,
would take in connection with the
will was not known.
AS executors Guggeheim nominat-
ed his brother, Simon Guggenh, i'm.
and his attorney, Harold A. Con-
tent.
Guggenheim, youngest of seven
sons of Meyer Guggenheim, who
founded the great mining and bus
mess empire of M. Guggenheim's
Sons, was a publicist and phlian-
thropist of note.

claimed that the German spear ,
head has driven 100 miles east of the |
upper reaches of the Dneiper river.
His vague geographical reference
could mean that the Germans are
anywhere from 40 to 100 miles from
Moscow. The 100-mile figure SEEM
ed more likely in view of previous
reports of Nazi operations in the
area.
The German high command
claimed that panzer forces are
smashing ahead against weakening
Soviet resistance. The Russians, said
the official Berlin communique, can
no longer oppose a connected de-
fense line or unified high COM
mand to the German attack.
German planes blasted at Mos
COW for five and a half hours dur
ing the night, setting great fires
Berlin said-in the Kremlin area
and damaging Red army headquar-
ters, government buildings and sup
ply depots.
Other luftwaffe units concentrated
on smashing communications in the
Smolensk- k-Leningrad-M Moscow trian-
gle and blasted at other rail lines
from 80 to 160 miles southeast of
Kiev.
The Germans obviously were at
tempting to prevent the Russians
from bringing reserve forces up to
the front to stem their forward
advance and to harrass retirement
OF Soviet forces in other sectors
of the front.
