So Indicted
as Conspirotors

DETROIT, June 16-tP)- u.
s. District Attorney j. c. Lehr
disclosed today that SO residents
Of the United States, Cuba and
Panama had been indicted as
conspirators in an international
lottery operation described by
postal authorities as one of the
largest and most extensive in

A Federal grand jury return
ed the Indictment, based on the
operations of the Republica De
Cuba hospital funds lottery, on
June l before District Judge Err
nest A. O'Brien of Detroit. Lehr

Science to Aid in Rebuilding
World After Victory is Won

EVANSTON, ILL, June 10
(P)-Scientists participating in
the dedication of a $4,000, 900
archaeological Institute at
Northwestern University said
today American research not
only would help win the war,
but also would take a leading
part in rebuilding the world af-
terWard.
On the side of war, Karl T.
Compton, president of the Mas
sachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy, reported the government
office of scientific research and
development had entered into
663 contracts with educational
institutions for the performance
of war work.
"These jobs" he said in his
prepared address, include those
of the very highest urgency
and priority, and some Of them
have already shown promise of
becoming important factors in
the forthcoming military deci-
SION"
George o. Curme, Jr., director
of research for the Carbide and
Carbon Chemical company, New
York, said in another prepared
address that academic and IN
dustrial scientists were cooperat-
ing with the government in a 81
gantic research program to create
new offensive and defensive
weapons and to replace strategic
material lost by the fortunes OF
war.
Northwestern's archaeological
Institute, created through a gift
of Walter p. Murphy, railway
equipment manufactures and
philanthropist, already is en-
gagged in extensive war research
and training for the govern
ment.
When it is fully under way 1t
will have an enrolment of 8OO
students, all pursuing a five

Six newly announced ship
sinkings in the submarine -dotted
western Atlantic put the var to-
tai of destroyed Allied and neu-
trail vessels in that area at 27l to-
day while the Navy pondered
the fate of an American freighter
missing for four months.
Navy and other reports of the
recent victims said that the ever
active U-boa.s had picked off two
American merchantmen in Gu
ban waters, a large Panamanian
cargo vessel in the Gulf of Mex
leo, A Norwegian tanker off
South America, an unidentified
ship in the Atlantic and a Brit

Fate of Missing American
Freighter Worries Navy
Six Newly Announced Sinkinss Lifts
Toll in Sub Dotted Area TO I'll

Naval and shipping circles
were discussing the disappear
ance without a trace of the New
Orleans freighter Miraflores Of
the Standard Fruit and Steam
ship company, last sighted Feb.
Is.
Like the u. S. Navy Collier
Cyclops, which vanished in 1918
during the World War enroute
home from Brazil and was new
er heard of again, the Miraflores
provided another wartime mys-
terry.
Neither the ship o its crew
has been reported since last seen
off the Haitian coast, the Navy
revealed yesterday. The Mira
flores, a vessel Of 2,158 gross
tons and 270 feet long, sailed
from New Orleans Feb. 6 with a
crew of "a on a routine voyage
to Haiti, and departed from
Haiti for New York Feb. IA.
The mystery Of its disappear
ance was deepened by the fact
that at that time the Axis sub
marine campaign had not been
extended into the waters in
which the Miroflores was sail
ing.
Survivors of one of the recent
Caribbean sinkings-one of the
two American merchantmen an
nounced yesterday as lost-to.d
on being landed at an East coast
, port of how they had waved
would-be rescuers out of the
, danger area.
Both rescue attempts were
made by Brazilian ships, the
survivors said, and they each lay
hove to for half an hour until the
seamen in lifeboats finally per-
susded them to sail on lest the
submarine get them, too.
