Strange Effects
Follow Blast In
Ordnance Plant
Explosion Heard and Felt at
Points Hundreds of
Miles Away.

CHICAGO.-Odd occurrences &C
companied the murderous explosion
recently in the army ordnance
plant at Elwood, H., southwest OF
this city. The blast, which occurred
about 2:30 one morning, was heard
and felt at points nearly a hundred
miles away.
In the nearby village of Elwood
virtually no damage was caused.
Many windows in Kankakee, 20
miles away, were shattered. In
Berwyn, where houses shook and
furniture ratified, several residents
telephoned to the police and re-
ported burglars. Berwyn borders
Chicago directly west.
Along the North Shore, from Will
mette to Waukegan, slamming doors
puzzled householders From Ham,
mond and Park Ridge came reports
that pictures had been shaken from
walls. Many Chicagoans who felt
the explosion thought an earthquake
had occurred.
~ Turns on the Water.
Two potted plants on a kitchen
window sill in the Peter Hanson
home in Elwood were hurled across
the room and into the sink by the
force of the blast. AS they crashed
into the sink they turned on the
water The noise awakened the
Hansons, who mistook it for thun-
der. Then Mrs. Hanson heard the
water running, Get up" she told
her husband. Its raining; close
the windows"
John Phelan of Joliet was driving
along the highway a few hundred
yards from the Elwood plant when
the explosion occurred. His car was
lifted from the road and dropped
half into a ditch. But Phelan heard
nothing.
Although the explosion shook build
ings and broke windows far beyond
the area in which it could be heard,
it did not register upon seismic
graphs, which record earthquakes.
This is because seismographs record
only those disturbances that shake
the basic rock far below the sur
face The Elwood blasts force was
carried by the upper soil strata.
Phones Kept Busy.
Windows ratified in all parts of
Aurora in the seconds that followed
the blast. Sergt. Harold Kellet said
he lost count of the phone calls he
received from citizens who thought
burglars were tampering with their
windows.
Though windows were smashed
and buildings shook in Joliet, the
roar of the explosion was mistaken
for thunder by most persons who
heard it. There was little stir until
morning when newspapers spread
the story.
AT Lockport, where the blast was
both heard and felt, officials received
hundreds of phone calls, according
to Fire Chief William Clark. Most
callers feared large oil plant there
had exploded, few asking about the
ordnance plant, he said.
Two windows in the Gary police
station were shattered and the
pieces blown inward at the instant
of the ordnance plant blast, but
Desk Sergt. Chester Westcott heard
no explosion, he said. Within the
next four minutes he received IL
phone calls as householders report
ed burglars trying to enter through
windows. Police squads were kept
busy more than an hour answering
similar calls.

Entomologists Compare
Wars of Insects, Me,

Entomologists at the Pennsylvania
State college are taking leadih:
part in the fight to control insect
pests which annually cost apple
growers $30,000,0O0.
"War against insects" according
to DR.. Stuart W. Frost, professor q
economic entomology, "are similst
to wars between men. They are g.
ways expensive, and the WHINE
sometimes loses"
DR.. Frost pointed out that 400 di
ferent insects attack apple tree,
and despite all that is done to con
bat them, the pests damage tire,
and fruit to the extent Of $l3, 0OO,O
annually. In addition, he said, CO
of control ranges at least $l7,OW
900.
Losses May Run Higher.
Average loss in commercial q.
ehards is around IL per cent q
the fruit crop, but when nothing
done to attack the insects, losst
may run as high as 100 per cent. y
Penn State entomologists point OFT
that other fruits are attacked n 4
manner similar to apples, but groF''
ers are often unable to recognize Z Z
insect causing the damage.
If a spraying schedule is sons
what ineffective, injuries made py
insects to fruits early in the season
may be pretty well healed by picsi-
ing time although the fruit is Likely
to be deformed.

KETCHIKAN, Alaska, Nov. G. The halibuter Masonic is south bound today after abandoning the search for the halibuter Helgeland which disappeared in the Mort h Pacific fishing grounds two months ago.
 Capt John Hansen of the Ma sonic said the search covered more than 2,0OO miles of shoreline as far westward as Dry Bay and also the entire Middleton Island area and the Gulf of Alaska.
 Hansen praised the Navy which he said cooperated with an inten- sive aerial and surface hunt for the missing boat and it's crew of II.
 The Masonic's search trip was financed by the Alaska Fishing Vessel Owners Association.

SECRETARY BACK FROM JOURNEY 10
 INFERIOR CiIIE5
Says WIPE Gold Mine Shut down Will Hit Older
 Miners Hard

Secretary of Alaska E. L. Bart lett has. returned to Juneau from an official business trip to An chorage and Fairbanks, mainly in connection with business regard ing the Alaska Territorial Guard and other military matters which may not be disclosed
 He reported that the Chena River at Fairbanks froze over at l pm. on the first of this month.
 The Secretary investigated con- ditions in the gold mining indus try and how they are affected by the recent closure order of the War Production Board.
 Will Bring Changes
 While defense work will provide employment not available during the last war when gold mines also were hard hit, the recent order shutting down gold operations will undoubtedly bring about funda- mental economic changes through out the gold region, he said.
 Naturally there are many com munities dependent on gold min ing for their existence and which will not be benefited by defense work" Mir Bartlett said.
 Tn some cases entire communi- ties will inevitably be wiped out, and in some cases, too, it is un- doubtedly true that the type of men thrown out of employment will not be suitable for other forms of work.
 Brings Unemployment
 Placer miners as such," he said, are no more competent to per- form underground work in non- ferrous mines than any other in- dividuals, and in any case, a goodly percentage of the gold min CTS are men well along in years who have been able to mine on a leisurely basis and will not be able to do the harder work.
 This is especially true of many men scattered throughout the re- zion who own their own mines and derive a livelihood from them but can't continue to work the mines on the small scale permit ted by the WIPE order" he said
 Younger men, headded, will have no trouble finding employment, but eventually, more and more older men will be forced to lean on the Territory for assistance
