OF certain persons as heirs in
various estates. From the facts Sc
forth In your letter I have no
doubt that the Nathan Shapiro
you speak Of Is the same person
who has been indicted.
Several OF the indictments arise
out OF representations Of persons
In Ireland being heirs OF people
deceased In this Commonwealth.
! have no doubt that he will pre-.
sent q very imposing set Of docu-
rnents showing the genealogy OF
the family together with a power
Of attorney giving him full au-
thority to collect whatever money
might be due from the estate.
II can likewise say OF Attorney
Slavin that all you state Is true
because in many OF the cases In
Massachusetts, Attorney Shapiro
requested attorneys Of excellent
reputation and high standing at
the bar 70 represent him. AS o
matter Of fact 1t Is only on rare
occasions that Shapiro ever per-
sonally appeared before any court.
II suggest that you scrutinize
most carefully the power OF at
torney and the genealogy In the
case. II he offers 10 leave with
anybody a photostatic copy OF
these papers I suggest that you
insist on seeing the original. Eras-
ures and eradications are not
readily apparent on photostatic
copies.
I'VE have found the irish Con.
sui In Boston most cooperative IN
the matter Of heirs in ireland.
You might prefer TO consult with
the Irish Consul In New York.
IN any event the Irish govern
ment Is now acquainted with the
situation and you will find them
most cooperative.
while ! have no information
on your particular case ] have no
doubt that II you will request the
government to make a check In
ireland you will be able to expose
the whole situation"

andas at the rear Of the premises
In the other action, the plaintiff
Dora Margolis, Is claiming 1880
damages, while her husband, Samuel
seeks $500.
Injuries sustained by both Mr.
and Mrs. Margolis were the result
Of the conduct Of the defendant in
that he permitted the storage OF
fuel oil and other inflammable
liquids, the complaint states.
The plaintiffs add that the stor-
age Of fuel oil created a condition
on the rear Of the premises that was
highly dangerous 10 the life OF the
tenants.
AS a result OF the injuries, Samuel
Margolis claims he was hoSpItalized
for three days, while his wife spent
three weeks in the hospital. Mrs.
Margolis claims she suffered great
mental pain and anguish and was
permanently injured as result Of
falling out Of the building which oc-
Cured when firemen were endeavor-
ing TO rescue her. She states that
she incurred large expense for medi-
cal, surgical and nursing care and
attention.

RUHR IS BOMBED
AGAIN BY BRITISH
CONTINUED from Page y

Germany, O formidable bombing
force, escorted by fighters, had at
tackled the French invasion port Of
lie Havre, raining bombs on docks
and German shipping.
In wild dog fights, the fighter
planes shot down eight German
planes for the British loss Of two.
One bombing plane was shot down
by anti-aircraft gun fire after re-
leasing Its bomb load.
All Germany could do In retalia-
ton was to raid one northeast Brit
ish town. One Of the German
bornbers appeared 10 have crashed
into the sea and another was re-
ported to have crashed inland.
The heartening British offensive
against Germany was matched by
the rout Of q German air fleet over
Malta, most bombed spot In the
world yesterday. In the l,600th raid
OF the war, on Malta, the Germans
lost two Messerschmidt planes for
certain and four stuka dive bombers
probably destroyed. Eleven dive
bombers were damaged and 1t was
believed that more were probably
damaged. The Royal Air Force lost
no planes.

Housing Fight
Flares Anew;
Homes Vacant
Detroit Group
Makes Another
Trip To Capital

WASHINGTON, D. G. LAMP
Thirty-two irate Detroiters stormed
on Washington early "Wednesday
morning, dissatisfied with the sud-
den turn taken In what had been
considered the final disposition OF
the Soiourner Truth Defense homes
after bitter verbal battles had mark
ed previous visit OF delegation
to Washington resulting IN what at
that time seemed an apparent VIC
tory for the Negroes.
Officials in Washington learned
that dissension in the Detroit coun-
Gil led to the latest flare UP, when
a councilman had the matter re-
opened after the mayor, the De-
troit Housing commission, the de-
fense housing coordinator and the
administrator of the PWA had
agreed to decision to permit Ne
groes to live in the houses.
The nine-man council was split
in a tie vote four to four, when this
councilman, who comes up for re-
election this year, brought the
council proposal which it is al
legged he had wrangled from the
Ford management to the effect that
Ford was giving gratis to the city
site he previously purchased for
tank proving ground. This site IS
on the side of the railroad tracks
and far less desirable than any
other site obtainable-
The councilman, said to be q grad
uate of Notre Dame and depending
upon the Polish vote to return to
the council, made his offer which
threw a monkey wrench into the
whole works. The mayor, put on the
well known spot, debated what to
do then with Sojourner Truth
homes since to all intents and pur-
poses the new site was for the use
of Negroes.
Feeling ran high in Detroit when
the 80 delegates decided to come to
Washington to determine what is
to be done and whether a local poll
tician, anxious for reelection, should
dominate the scene or whether the
federal government as represented
by Baird Snyder and Charles Pal
mer would have the final say as to
who was to occupy the nearly ready
defense homes.
Wednesday at 4:30, the delegation
held conference in the auditorium
of the old interior building, attend
ed by Baird Snyder, Ill, Charles
Palmer, defense housing coordinator
Leon S. Keyserling, acting United
States Housing administrator, and.
Col. Starr of the PWA.
Immediately upon calling the
meeting to order, Mr.. Snyder in q
very terse statement, for which he
later apologized because he under
stood that the delegates had felt he
was being rude and discourteouS.
declared that the houses, under dis
cussion would remain vacant until
the controversy concerning them
subsidized.
