A RECENT COMMUNIQUE:
Just received the following letter
from a young st. Paul lassie:
Dear Sal:
am quite interested in one
of my brothers boy friends who
comes to our home quite often.
Sometimes this boy acts as if
he's interested in me and then
at times he's cold and unfriendly.
What would you advise?
"Bewildered."
Answer:
Dear "Bewildered":
Young lady, don't spend an
other minute wondering what
makes this young man so change
able. Perhaps he's the type that
does not see your true worth. He
probably takes the opinions of
others and has no mind of his
own. After all, if he is of the
right calibre and wants to really
know you, he'll show you in
some way.
Sal.

"A TALE OF TWO CITIES"
Our leading lady in this weeks
drama is quite we'll known in the
Twin Cities. She's a very devout
person, active in many splendid or
CARNATIONS, never misses church
on Sunday and really has some out
standing qualities. For some time
there has been a rumor circulating
round that this very pious woman
has been stealing money from the
church collection plate on Sundays.
It seems as if her method is this
when the plate is passed to her
she deity fumbles around in the
collection of money, supposedly
putting in a rather substantial bill
and then taking out a portion of
change. Some of the members
have been getting tired of hearing
all of these rumors and decided to
put this lady to test for once and
all. Last Sunday they planted a
group of people to sit near her and
each was to put IN a certain
amount in a certain collection plate.
Sure enough, it was discovered that
this very woman put in $1.00 bill
and took back over $500 in change.
Now the church members who
know about these little dishonest
transactions are all upset for they
do not know how to deal with this
woman. You know she happens to
be one of the pillars of the church.
The last I heard was that the men,
bers are still debating. What do
you think they should do?
HAVE YOU HEARD?

St. Paul and now with the army

Prisons Bureau Puts
Special Guards Over

Suboteurs to Be Used
As Witnesses Against
Alleged Confederotes

George John Dasch and Ernest
Peter Burger, the two Nazi saboteurs
who escaped the death chair, have
been turned over by the Army to
the Justice Department, it was
learned today Both are still at the
District Jail.
The Army guard has been with
drawn and the Federal Bureau Of
Prisons has assigned special squad
to watch the two men, supplement-
ing the regular personnel at the
District Jail
The. Justice Department probably
will use Dasch and Burger as wit
nesses in pressing treason charges
against the alleged accomplices of
the saboteurs. Attorney General
Biddle has ordered United States
attorneys in Chicago, New York
and Brooklyn to seek immediate
grand jury indictments, on charges
of treason where the evidence war
rants, against IL of the IA persons
apprehended by the FBI as con-
federates of the Nazi saboteurs. He
has indicated treason charges will
be brought against at least Of
the IL. Under the Constitution no
person can be convicted of treason,
except on the testimony of two
witnesses or on confession in open
court.
The grand jury proceedings IN
Chicago are expected to start with
in few days, with those in New
York and Brooklyn getting under
way shortly thereafter. Dasch and
Burger probably will appear before
the grand juries in both Chicago
and New York.
