 Temple asserted that Mrs. Louis was "extravagant." He said that after their arrangement, she sent Louis bills totaling $3000 including one of $579 for clothing. When he told the court that she spent $200 one night last week. her attorney Bindley Cyrus, replied that the money was in a pocketbook she had lost and that the matter had been reported to police. His Lawyer Angry When Cyrus asked the court to include in the petition a writ of ne exeat (which would prevent Louis from leaving the courts jurisdic- tion), Temple shouted:
 That's absurd. It would be like killing the goose that laid the gold en egg"
 Do you mean to say Joe's a goose" Cyrus asked.
 "Yes, if he pays all that money, ? Iemple SalQ. No action was taken on the re- quest.
 Cyrus said that Mrs. Louis needed enough alimony to keep her in the manner to which she has been ac- custonned to living since her mar riage to Louis in 1885.
 Tn her divorce petition, filed July 2, Mrs. Louis charged that prior to their arrangement last April, her husband had struck her twice, Louis answer denied acts of cruelty and that Mrs. Louis had treated him kindly as a true and virtuous wife"

Officials of the other two members of Waterbury's Big Three" today stated that there seemed to be no immediate possibility of their hav- ing to follow the lead of ScoVill di- vision in shutting down temporarily.
 However, Charles E. Hart, execu- tive vice-preSident of the Chase Brass & Copper Co. indicated that while there is no possibility of a shutdown of any kind within the week, the problem of shortages may become s serious one for his com- pany in time.
 An official of the American Brass Co. said that the company did not face exactly the same difficulties as the Scovill O., but that "de- nverieS are very uncertain"
 The North Rolling mill is the first local plant of any size to be forced even to temporary shutdown by shortage of essential metals, since the OPM placed copper among oth- CT metals on the priorities list. MT. Curtiss explained that the delay in the arrival of the shipment of copper cut down the capacity of casting shop, and thus affected oth- CT departments as well. He stated that the situation should improve shortly, since quite bit of copper is on its way to the Scovill Co. here, Some of the work being done in the North Rolling mill is admittedly of non-defeYSe character.

27-year r-old Army Air Corps. pilot,
of Washington had been killed there
August 10 in a plane crash, officially
disclosed for the first time that
Army units have reached the island,
The War Department had an
nounced on August % that 1t.
Meeks had been killed at an off,
shore base, but department officials
then declined to say what base.
Their reticence presumably was
due to unwillingness to reveal that
Army flyers, and possibly other
Army units, had been sent to REIN
force the Marines occupying the
island.
He was the son of Capt. George
C. MeekS, retired commander OF
the Districts Second Fire Engine
Company. Even the father was un-
able to learn where his son had died.
Capt. MeekS had laSt seen Ills soll
at Mitchell Field, N. Y, a month
before his death. He had heard
that 1t. MeekS had been sent to an
unnamed new post.
1t. Meeks attended Central High
School and Columbia Preparatory
School before entering the Naval
Academy. After a setback in cal
culus, he went to the University of
Maryland, piling up the credits re-
quired for an Air Corps cadetship.
He won his wings and commission
after nine months of Air Corps
training and joined the 9th Pursuit
Group at Langley Field, Va. He
moved with the group to Mitchell

Director Irving Applebaum-who

There's no official Navy version,
but here's Mr.. Applebaum's:
I'VE were shooting a scene from
Albert's yacht Cynthia for new
adventure picture he's making yes
terday afternoon. A boatload of
marines and sailors looms up.
They're from the battleship Nevada
and just like that they're swarming
on board.
What are we doing? they ask.
We're shooting a movie, we tell
them. They're sorry, they say, but
they've orders to seize the film and
the cameras. We talked and talked
and finally they agreed to let us
keep the cameras.
But of they went with the film
The officer in charge said 1t would
be developed and If 1t didn't show
any battleships we could have ii
back. He was a little disturbed
because he said the Navy has no
equipment for developing movie
film. but he said 1t would be done"
Interested, but mountaineering
spectators were two Army officers
Capt. Henry Fine and Lt. James
Cochrane of Tucson, Ariz. Capt
Fine, a friend of Albert and q
former movie actors agent, had
brought 1t. Cochran aboard to

Distinguishing Tim'
To End This Month
Except in Southeast
Power Supply to
Determine Policy
Through the Winter
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Clocks in daylight saving areas,
except the Southeast, will be turned
back to standard time as usual on
the last Sunday of this month
September 28-unless individual To-
calities desire or are requested by
the Federal Government to do
otherwise.
Only in the Southeast has the
Federal Power Commission pro-
claimed a power emergency and re-
ouested advanced time as an electric
energy saver. That area is center
of aluminium production, requiring
huge amounts of electricity-and the
Southeast has been beset by a
drought.
Depends on Emergency.
Chairman Leland OldS said today
the commission would not call for
continuation of daylight time in any
region throughout the fall and win
ter unless there is a real power
emergency" in that area, and he
added that the situation in the
Southeast would be restudied to de-
termine whether the fast time would
be necessary through December, as
now contemplated.
The power situation in Dixie has
been improved by summer rains that
filled hydro-poWer reservoirs. Fast
time was instituted by the Governors
of several Southern States at the
request of the President.
Mr.. Roosevelt has asked Congress
for authority to blanket regions with
daylight saving time whenever it
becomes essential to conserve electric
energy needed for defense purposes,
and bill to confer such power is
now before Congress
No Order Contemplated.
Many cities and towns, especially
IN the industrial East, customarily
advance their timepieces by one
hour during the summer months
and return to standard time the last
Sunday in September.
However, if a power emergency
should jeopardize defense produc-
ton in any area, Mr.. Olds said the
commission would recommend day
light saving time-summer or
winter
Under the bill now before Con-
eress, the President could order
clocks throughout the country, or
in any part of the country. to be
turned as much as two hours for
ward for the whole year. 1t was
not expected, however, that Mr..
Roosevelt at any time would order
blanket advance for the whole
country.
Daylight saving was adopted by
Congress during the World War as a
power-saving device.

when asked about the report, mere

Navy ships are employed in the

mats in Vichy said that they could
not confirm the story of the arrival
of the merchant ships in Egypt.
We do know that freighters have
cleared from American ports with
supplies intended for aid to Greece

of those two countries. these ship
ments were not cancelled and it
was suggested that these ships.
when advised that the Hitler forces
had swamped these countries,
changed their course and had gone
around the Cape of Good Hope into
the Red Sea and delivered their car
goes there. If this surmise is cor
rect, it is evident that despite some
discOuraging reports, lot of the
material, guns airships, etc, are
getting to where they will do the
most good. 1t bears out the Presi-
dents insistence on the delivery Of
the planes, guns and other combat
material, in the production of
which our factories are now bend
ing every effort.
Incidentally it indicates that the
President has a very clear idea of
what has to be done to compass the
Hitler projected world domination.
What that program is do not
know-and if ! knew I could not
tell.
