Big Trains Son Wants
To Join 29th Ball Team
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Md,
June 28.-He has his eye on the
races, this soldier, but will talk
baseball at the drop of a hat
especially at the mention of Walter
johnson.
The soldier is Walter P. Johnson,
jr., son of the famous Washington
pitcher. Drafted from Rockville,
he has been assigned to Head
quarters Company, 115th Infantry.
Horse races are in his blood as
much as baseball. Pvt. johnson and
his brother. Eddie, raced some of
our horses at Hialeah and Tropical
Park last summer, and we've got a
couple running at Delaware Park
now"
johnson, who has played "a little
professional ball." doesn't believe
Bob Feller is as fast as Dad. I've
heard a couple of big league hitters
say hes not so fast-but he's a
great pitcher"
The 6-foot soldier said it had
been his ambition to "be as famous
as my dad. I guess everybody has
an ambition like that, but I gave
that up long time ago. Anyhow,
I'd like to go out for the 29th
Divisions team"

but had become self sufficient and
therefore impervious to blockade.
The Mystery of Hess.
1t is believed in some quarters
here that Rudolf Hess carried to
England a peace offer so flattering
that neither the British nor Ameri-
can governments dared let their
people learn the contents. The over
ture is supposed to have suggested
as Franz Won Papen later proposed
to the British Minister in Ankara
that England, having been de-
nounced as plutocracy, should join
the Nazis in a holy war against
anti-capitalist Russia.
During such an interval of peace,
Hitler would count on the proba-
bility that England and the United
States again would lapse into ab-
sorption in profits and trade. and
particularly that the American de-
mocracy would weary of appro-
priating endless billions and relax
its rearmament effort.
But the cessation of military and
naval operations would not mean
for Germany an interruption of the
war, but merely its transfer to an
other field. A savage economic cam
paign would be launched against
both democracies. They would be
barred from all European trade ex-
cept on Eazi terms, which would be
strictly unilateral.' simultaneously
tremendous commercial attack
would begin in Latin America, leav-
ing to the United States the hard
choice of accepting 1t or resisting
by force of arms.

president in charge of manufacture
ing, said and much more spec
tacular savings will result as the
men become accustomed to their
respective operations"
Using belts is something new in
aircraft manufacture. It's one of
a series of techniques adopted by
planemakers to speed the produc-
ton of fighting ships. Standardized
parts and new types OF machines
are other examples.
The use of belts permits the
breaking up among a group of men
with each doing one type OF ma

done by one or two men in making
the whole subassembly.

Personnel Willing
To Stay on 0-Boats
Despite 0-9 Disaster
Officer Who Saw Dive
Says Explosion Muy
Have Sunk Sub
By the Associated Press.

NEW LONDON, Conn, June "a
The officers and ratings of the
American submarine feet are ready
to a man to serve aboard the 20
odd-year- O-boats despite the
% disaster which carried SO men
to death off Portsmouth, N. H., a
week ago.
Two officers of O-claSS submarines
told a naval court yesterday during
an inquiry into the 90 sinking that
their crews, although offered trans
fers following the Portsmouth trag-
edy, had elected to remain on duty
aboard the post-World War pig
boats" Submarine duty is voluntary
In the Navy.
After a five-and-a-half hour ses-
session yesterday in a room over
looking large flotilla Of submarines
tied up at the submarine base here,
the court recessed its inquiry until
today.
Opinions that personnel failure
or an explosion might have sent the
90 to the bottom in more than 400
feet of water were expressed py two
officers.
1t. Bernard F. McManon, COM
mander of the O-10, who witnessed
the O-9's last test dive from the
deck of his craft, said he believed
the disaster might have been
caused by some person opening
the wrong valve or giving a wrong
order or some little thing went
wrong and some person lost his
head"
Il think it was entirely person.

> The explosion theory, however,
was advanced by 1t. Comdr. Robert

No Real Search Made
By Maine Police,
Joss Jury Told
Prosecution Witness
Sow 'Unkempt Man
Near Doctors Home
By the Associated Press.

BATH, Me, June 28-A Rich
mond constable testified today under
cross examination at Dr. Merrill E
JOSS murder trial that State
police made no real search for the
assailant the physician claims
fatally beat DR.. Luverne Harris
Joss last March n.
Frank c. Bishop, 40, police Off
Ger in the little town of Richmond
said State police had been Or
dered to patrol the vicinity of the
Joss office-home but that a dozen
or rs" were gathered around the
house.
Il made the remark that it was
funny that the State of Maine
would send cops out and not have
them stay wherever they were sup
posed to stay" he said under ques-
tioning by Defense Counsel Ernest
L. Goodspeed.
He replied No" when asked by
Mr.. Goodspeed if "in your opinion,
was any real search made by the
State police?
In your opinion, would it have
been possible for an assailant of Mrs.
Joss TO escape as far as the State
police search was concerned" he was
asked.
Knowing the place as I dot
would" he answered.
The State claims the physician, a
Portland (Oreg) native, killed his
Alabama born wife by beating her
head against the floor, walls and
stairs in the cellar of their home be-
cause of his love for Mrs. Elizabeth
Chapman Mayo, 80, attractive tea
room proprietor.
A pretty girl witness called by the
prosecution, Miss Julia Hilton OF
Bowdoin. testified yesterday that she
saw, near the Joss home, bearded
and shabby" man answering the de-
scription of the man DR.. Joss says
be believes was the slayer.
Miss Hilton said she visited the
Joss home the night of the crime in
connection with an application to
become a student nurse, that she
left about sos mot long before the
State contends Mrs. joss was slain)
