However. subsequent check prob
ably will reveal that only half OF
Alexandria took blackout precau-

BY the Associated PreSS.
LONDON, March 14-United
States troops went on parade this
morning in London for the first time
since the start of the war. A small
contingent marched into park for
inspection by an American colonel.
Traffic on one of London's S busiest
thoroughfares paused briefly while
the troops passed.
English spectators noticed con-
trasts between the parading Ameri-
cans and review of their own troops.
One newspaperman remarked that
it was mot spit and polish parade. u
The Americans shoes were clean,
he said, but there was not one
highly polished pair" He added that
all the men had impressive trousel
creases which would have been a
credit to British guardsmen."
Another was surprised during in
spection of quarters when three men,
who had been on night duty, con-
tinued to sleep when the colonel
passed through. One of them heard
the shout of attention." but only
turned over.

America has been Gods privi-

Our Nation is now in the gravest

do right about face and face this
trying period with a Christian faith
in Him." the Rev. DR.. Shoemaker

With the exception of Montgomery

Maryland and Virginia was pro-
nounced a complete success by civil

In Montgomery County, Wilton T.
Allen, deputy AFRAID warden for

ing several cases of refusal to CO.

Montgomery defense heads de-
clared that last nights test was not
as effective as the l0-hour practice
March 3. They stated the reason
was lack of publicity.
Arlington Test Praised.
F. Freeland Chew, chief AFRAID
warden for Arlington County. called
it grand blackout. 1t was better
than 80 per cent efficient" There
were two or three violations on
which police were called, he said,
but none of them we're fragrant.
Col. Lemuel Bollies visited the
Arlington control center last night
and pronounced it one of the best
he has seen. Fifteen people were
manning the phones in the control
center, Mr. Chew said. This black
out was every bit as good as the
last one, he emphasized.
There were only about six viola
tions, none of them serious, in
Prince Georges County, J. Robert
Sherwood. chairman of the county
Civilian Defense Council, said to-
day. He was pleased to note that
there were not as many calls re-

Finns' War Role May End
Soon, Tanner Declares

HELSINKI, March IA LP,.-Min-
lister of Trade Vaino Tanner. who
was Finland's Foreign Minister dur
ing the 1939-40 winter war with Rus
sia, said yesterday there is reason
10 hope that Finland's part in the
war will end very SOON"
Mr.. Tanner said Finland had re-
ceived many proposals from abroad
to make a separate peace with Rus
sian, but added these proposals must
be rejected because Of Russia's plans
for Finland after the war. He did
not say what the plans were. but
said they had the sanction of a
certain influential member of the
British cabinet and the eminent
newspaper, the Times"
Mr. Tanner did not explain the
seeming conflict between his state
ments that many proposals for a
separate peace had been rejected,
but there was nevertheless reason 10
hope that Finland's part in the war
will end soon"
Factors to be considered, however.
include the possibility of an Allied
drive into Finland from the Arctic
Sea and the reported growth of a
Finnish peace movement. Fighting
on the 700-mile Lapland- -Karelian
front has been generally limited to
aerial and patrol actions recently.
From Bern yesterday came re-
port that a member of the Finnish
Parliament declared in Stockholm
that Finland had already lost more
men in the present campaign against
Russia than in the previous war

In most cases, an apparent effort
was made to comply with requests
to keep lighting at minimum for
the rest of the blackout ordered
for the Metropolitan Area but IN
some buildings the lights were
turned on without even pulling
closed the Venetian blinds.
At the Navy Yard. where a 15-
minute blackout period was OBJ
served, police were called to check
on reports of residents OF the
area that the yards siren was stuck.
1t was later reported that the siren
had been tested for the full Is
minutes.
One apparent violation In the
Southeast section drew AFRAID
wardens. auxiliary police and the
regular force. Lights shone behind
Venetian blinds throughout f1rst-
floor apartment. the only violation
in the area. Wardens and police
failed to get any response to knocks
on the door or telephone calls. They
said they were sure the occupants
of the apartment were at home be-
cause the radio was turned on and
off. Superintendent OF Police
Edward Kelly was to be sent a
report on the violation today.
Wardens Seek Marauder.
Commissioner Guy Mason and
Chairman Randolph of the House
District Committee witnessed a
demonstration Of the AFRAID
warden service during their tour
of the city. Noticing a crowd
gathered outside a home on FoXhall
road, they stopped to investigate and
learned that the woman occupant
of the home had called the sector
warden post in Kent to report
man was trying to break into her
house. Wardens were promptly dis
patched to the scene and secured
the adjoining woods for the
marauder, whom they did not
locate.
At another point in their tour,
they noted light and jumped out
to investigate. They discovered the
offender was a Boy Scout, who ex-
planned breathlessly that he had
lust come in from hunting for his
dog, was in the house alone ana
had forgotten momentarily about
the blackout.
He was very anxious for us to
leave so he could cooperate" Rep
resentative Randolph said.
At another point. they stopped to
investigate a house in which light
was burning on the third floor. Re-
ceiving no answer to their knock,
they located the warden. who told
them the house was unoccupied and
for sale, that he had been looking
for the owner and had finally gotten
the key to the house.
Praising the genuine co-opera-
ton and common sense OF the resi-
dents of the Metropolitan Area,
Mr.. Randolph said he trusted ar
rangements can be made in the
near future for complete black
out.
Warning Brings Result.
Other officials gathered at the
District Building to review the tour
told of a warden who noticed a
light in a closed gas station and
notified the station proprietor by
phone. The owner promptly left
his home and hastened to the sta
ton to turn out the light.
Commissioner Young commented
that the tour had convinced him
that more people had fallen into
line with what we really want.
They have gone to work since last
week and provided themselves with
blackout materials so they could
continue their normal lives under
blackout conditions"

Lesson For Services in
Church of The NaZarene

Junior Time" OF the Church Of
the Nazarene evangelistic SER
vice Tuesday night opened with
choruses led by Mrs. E. NJ. Kenne-
dy. Using a watch for her object
lesson she stressed the five essen
tial things each should watch, TAX
ing the letters in the word watch"
W for words, A for actions. T for
tongue, c for company and II for
habits. Carefulness along these
lines is conducive TO good Chris
tian living, she pointed out.
The scripture chosen for the text
OF the sermon by Rev. E. NJ. Ken
nedy was found in Hebrews 1871,
"Wherefore seeing we are COM
passed about with so great a cloud
OF witnesses"-let us run with pa
thence the race that is set before
US. He said, Paul truly had struG-
giles that 1t seemed almost human
ly impossible to endure and yet he
could write encouragement to 9TH
ers. Among the cloud of witnesses,
he mentioned Jesus as the foremost
witness, the apostles and prophets
who preceded them. Could we hear
from Daniel, jeremiah, Isaiah, and
then Stephen the first martyr, Pet
er. James and John, who knew real
suffering, yea even the angelic host
of Heaven and our own loved ones
who have died in the faith, they'd
all say Fight the good fight OF
faith.
Services will continue each night
through Friday.
