fore 1t turns red and keeps fairly
we'll for markets. The plant reaches
a height of several feet, with sturdy
branching and f1brous limbs.
The vegetable is ready for the
markets about three months after
the seeds have been sown. The
seeds are usually started in hotbeds
and the young plant transplanted
after all danger of frost is gone.
Many new varieties are listed in
the seed catalogues each year as the
pepper gains in favor. The large
kinds are known as the bell, sweet
mountain, Ruby King and squash.
The medium-sized varieties-the
long red, celestial, oxheart-are hot,
and mean hot. The county fair
and kaleidoscope are mild.
One or more pepper plants in your
kitchen garden will supply you with
the different types you need and
one plant of the hot variety will be
sufficient to add zest to all the soup
and vinegar the average-sized
family will require.

was considered valuable as an aid
to digestion. But the pepper spoken
of in the many records as being of
such value for dressing meats and
used so widely for medicinal pur-
poses is known to us as black pepper
and is used in the form of powder.
The green pepper of commerce is
still classed as one of the minor
vegetables and is known as a truck
crop. Usually gardens located near
large cities in the Central and
Southern States grow a sufficiently
large crop to take care of the sum-
mer markets Florida grows them
in large numbers each year, as the
demand for the vegetable for use
in salads is increasing. California,
New Mexico and New Jersey produce
the greatest supply of green peppers.

Army Discrimination

An end Of discrimination" against
non-citizens in the United States
armed forces was sought in a letter
to President Roosevelt made public
yesterday by the American Commit

Hugh De Lacy, national chairman
Of the committee. wrote President
Roosevelt that. there were $500
selectees in the Army who were nom

promotion to commissions.
Non-citizens are not accepted for

Green peppers are becoming more
popular each year with the careful
housewife in using up her leftovers.
In the public eating places, green
peppers seem to be the favorite con-
tainer Of rice, though more and more
they are filled with beef ground fine
and highly seasoned.
AS far as records go, the first use
Of pepper is said to have been by
Chauca, physician to the feet of
Columbus, who makes mention in
his diary of its use as a condiment.
Perhaps century later, the green

 AT 10TH CENTURY
Orphans of inc North Starring Mary Joyce,
 Ann fleming, Here

Orphans of the North,' made at Taku by Norman Dawn and featuring Mary Joyce and Juneaus own little Ann Henning. is the thrilling feature opening tonight at the 20th Century. The feature, according to the press sheet, was filmed entire in this section, about two years ago, thus authenticity is attested.
 The film depicts the romantic story of one of Alaska's famous sourdoughs, Bedrock Brown, whose never-to- be- forgotten rescue of a young child, hopelessly lost in the vast wilderness, has been woven into the lore and legend of the North i9A' tt h
 Actual shots of the great Takli River Glacier, last remnant of Am- erica's Ice Age, give added authen- ticity to the film as the players trudge across the frozen wastes on the rescue mission which made AL askan history.
 There are other thrilling scenes as food intended for the starving refuges is dropped from a plane, cnly to be seized by giant gla- cial polaf bear. The mysterious avalanche of ice. a cave-in which traps Bedrock Brown in an aban- dcned gold mine, the last minute rescue from quicksand, are but a few of the thrilling moments of the film. ~t'' NsiH rT
 Another highlight is the grand larceny performed by two diminu- tive black bear cubs, who virtually steal the entire picture with their hilarious antics. These fuzzy come dians are twin, pint-sized editions Of Jack Bennys famed "Carmf- chael," and are guaranteed to make you roar with laughter ss

Body Found Beside Auto
Tentatively Identified
Earlier story on Page Ally

Virginia State police said this
afternoon that the body found near
burning automobile in Morgan
town. N. C.-believed to be the Sec
ond victim of a murderer who shot
Robert S. Divvens, formerly of
Washington-had been tentatively
identified as Thaddeus Florkiewicz
of Uniontown. Pa.
Papers found on the body bore
that name and police said the de-
scription of the second murder VIC
tim tailed with that of Florkiewicz.
Mr.. Divvens left Uniontown Sum-
day to drive to Fredericksburg, Va.
Last night Mr.. Divvens' automo-
bile-which had been misSing--was
found on a lonely road outside of
Morgantown, in the western part of
North Carolina. Beside the car was
the body which police believe to be
that of FlorkiewicZ.
Police theorized that Mr.. Divvens,
who was in the habit of picking up
hitch-hikers, may have given Flor
kiewicz and some other man lift
from near Uniontown.
In Uniontown, the Associated
Press was informed that Florkiewicz
worked at a radiator plant there
until Friday. He resigned then and
stated that he was going TO New
Jersey to get another job.
AS far as could be learned. Mr..
Divvens and Florkiewicz we're not
acquainted, lending credence to the
theory that they met by chance
along the road.

Earle Won't Be Recalled,
Roosevelt Declares
Nv tho ASsoriatsd Press

By the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt told reporters
there was no possibility he knew of
that George H. Earle might be re-
called.
Referring to the incident in q
Sofia restaurant involving Mr.. Earle
and an unidentified German, a re-
porter inquired:
Have you received any report on
the battle of the bottles in the Bal
kans?'
Smilingly Mr.. Roosevelt acknowl-
edged that he had read an account
of it in newspaper.
Earlier, Representative Rich, Re-
publican, of Pennsylvania demand
ed in the House the recall of Mr..
Earle, declaring that the envoy got
into a drunken brawl" at Sofia.
Mr.. Earle reported to the State
Department that he was in a res
taurant when, "resenting the play
ing of 'Tipperary,' German threw
bottle at me-" He added:
Il warded it off and retaliated by
injuring his features. The incident
was regrettable but I saw no other
course"
An act like that might lead us
into war;" Mr. Rich shouted. He
ought to be recalled and sent back
to the farm in Pennsylvania"

President Favors
Wire Tapping 10 Trap
Spies and Traitors
Use Against Suboteurs
Very Much in Public
Interest He Says
3, the Associated Press.

B, the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt said today
that he favored the use of Wire
tapping against aliens and TRAITORS"
who engage in espionage or sabo-
tage against the United States
His statement was in letter to
Representative Eliot, Democrat, of
Massachusetts, member of the House
Judiciary Committee which is
studying wiretapping legislation.
Mr.. Eliot made the letter public.
Mr.. Roosevelt said that pending
bill by Representative Hobbs, Demo-
crat, of Alabama goes entirely too
far" and contains provisions "un-
necessarily broad" in that it would
permit the head of any executive
department of the Federal Govern
ment to authorize his investigators
to tap wires provided he believed
that a felony had been or was about
to be committed.
Mr.. Roosevelt said the only do
mestic" crime in connection with
which wiretapping might be advisa-
bic was kidnapping and extortion
in the Federal sense"
There is, however, one field in
which, given the conditions in the
world today, wiretapping is very
much in the public interest" the
President wrote.
This Nation is arming for ma
tional defense. 1t is the duty of
our people to take every single step
to protect themselves.
'I have no compunction in say
ing that wiretapping should be used
against those persons, not citizens
of the United States, and those few
citizens who are traitors to their
country, who today are engaged in
espionage or sabotage against the
United States"

COP. Senator's S

As Surprise
Vermonter Warns

Senator Aiken. Republican, Of
Vermont, joined opponents of the
administrations British-aid bill to-
day, contending in his first formal
Senate speech that enactment Of
the measure would be the final
step" before American involvement
in war In the eighth day of Senate
debate on the measure. Aiken and
Senator Shipstead, Republican, of
Minnesota, another opponent, as
serted the bill would give President
Roosevelt greater powers than ever
before granted to q President and
would lead directly TO war.
Stoutly diSputing this view, Sena-
tors Murray. Democrat of Montana,
and Barbour. Republican, of New
Jersey, proponents. argued that the
lease-lend measure provided the
most effective way of keeping this
country at peace.
Filibuster Tactics Hinted.
With opponents talking privately
of a possible flibuster, Democratic
Leader Barkley of Kentucky told
reporters that he hoped a final vote
could be obtained on the measure
by the end of this week But Sena-
tor Wheeler. Democrat, of Montana,
a leader of the opposition, said the
vote might be delayed until the
latter part of next week.
Senator Aiken's attack on the

leader. in. support of the measure.
When cast my vote on this
bill" Senator Aiken told the Senate,
Il shall regard it as vote to de-
termine whether or not America
shall go to war
This bill is the final step before
the armed forces of the United
States are scattered over the waters
of the seven seas and the lands Of
four continents"
Sees Step TO One-Man Rule.
There could be little argument,
Senator Aiken continued. that the
President could influence the course
of the war through the powers
granted him by the bill by "depriving
England of war materials now on
order in this country unless England
conducts this war as he thinks she
should"
Saying that he had supported most
of President Roosevelt's domestic
program much to the disgust of
my own party organization, Senator
Aiken said it was his opinion there
is no man on earth that should have
the power which this bill conveys to
the President of the United States"
Passage of this bill" Senator
Aiken continued, will be the longest
step toward one-party and one
man government that has yet been
made"
