SUNDAYS SAD STORY

Adams didn't need detective
10 know that something was
wrong with the club that let the
Brooklyns skate through Sunday
10 their first victory at Olympia
in two years. The. Wings just
didn't have the old hustle-and
they're going TO need all they can
summon when they play Boston
here Thursday and Rangers at
Olympia Saturday night.
That some of the Wings were
becoming a little irresponsible was
discovered on the recent eastern
swing when Adams learned that
four or five of them had been up
until 4 a. m. playing cards in their
New York hotel room.
They didn't get down 10
breakfast until 1880 i'm the after
noon" Adams snorted. "We're
going To have better discipline
than that or there are going TO
he some terrific fines. The play
ers must realize they owe too
much To The hockey public and
Mr.. Norris to get away with
that sort of thing-even II they
don't care about themselves"
DETECTIVES ONCE USED
If the hockey club should hire
detectives TO shadow the Red
Wings it would not be without
precedent. In Stanley Cup days
the club hired detectives on sew
eral occasions for the same pur-
pose and it is known that
detectives reports resulted In the
dismissal of one of etroit's minor
league club managers for drinking
with the players.
Employment Of detectives is not
in baseball either. and
has been frequently employed by
the Detroit Tigers.
~ wouldn't like to do II but
we can't overlook a bet" said
Adams. I'VE must take any
steps necessary to start this club
winning"
Earlier and longer practice ses-
sions for the Wings also went
into effect today. The players
were ordered on the ice at 9 n. m.
for a two-hour drill instead Of the,
customary $50 10 1870. The new
order means most of the players
will have 10 be up at ZOO. which
is midnight to some of them.
The players, surprisingly enough
whipped up and down the ice with
gusto in practice yesterday.
'They realty took their snow
shoes off and went to town."
said Carson Cooper, the Red |
Wing scout. you wouldn't
know IL was the same club"
81 hope they keep those snow
shoes off until after we play |
the Bruins replied Adams.

Allied Warships Reported
Massed in Mediterranean
By the Associated Press.
-


BERN, Switzerland, Aug. 90
The Rome correspondent of the
Tribune de Geneve said today that
reports of Allied concentrations of
transports and warships at Gibraltar
and West African ports were cur
rent in Italy, where they were
interpreted as possible preparations
for opening a second front.
The correspondent said that
"these considerable concentrations, "
according to views held in Rome,
might be intended as reinforcements
for Atlantic conveys, but it is also
thought possible that they are
destined for use in surprise attack
in the Mediterranean basin similar
to that at Dieppe."
The correspondent said Italians
are pointing to French Tunisia as
"the most exposed point" in the
Mediterranean and asserting that
"Anglo-Saxon enterprises against
French possessions have succeeded
very we'll" (The reference presum-
ably is to the occupation of Syria.)
The writer said an Allied attack
on Tunisia would put Allied forces
at the back of the Axis armies in
Egypt.
Other Mediterranean areas, he
continued, are considered we'll pre-
pared against "all eventualities.

Air Raids on Sub Yards
Fail 10 Erase Menace
By the Associated Press.

BY tne Associated ffesS.
LONDON, Aug. 26.-Despite heavy
aerial attacks on U-boat yards and
bases, German undersea raiders still
constantly menace Allied shipping,
official British circles said today.
The output of German subma-
rines remains large and the Allies
must depend on anti-U-boat devices
to protect shipping" source said.
''The submarine threat is still very
grave and our attitude toward it
should recognize this fact"
The comment followed reports of
increased sinkings of U-boats in
the Atlantic and a reduction of
Allied shipping losses on the sea
lanes off the American coasts.
The Germans are devoting their
entire nay.l building program to
the construction of U-boats and
therefore can afford materiel losses,
the commentator said.
THE loss of submarine crews is
the important thing to Germany"
he added. THE Nazis particularly
feel the loss of U-boat commanders
who must have experience to be
successful"

He pointed out that the nature

developing advanced types of num-

neither the British nor Americans
had to concede "any superiority to
the Germans in qualitive weapons"
The type of the new secret weapon
was not hinted.
"It is no longer question of
ordnance production as far as sup
plying a vast army is concerned"
he said.
He was quick to point out, how
ever, that the transportation of
weapons from the United States to
Britain was not in his field and said
he could not comment on the ship
ping situation.
"A three-week tour of British
factories has convinced me that

All Britain Offers
Sympathy in Death
OF Duke Of Kent
Kings Youngest Brother
Killed in Plane Crash
En- Route to Iceland
By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Aug. 26.-All Britain,
where the grievous message
killed on active service" has
darkened countless households,
offered understanding sympathy
today to the royal family, be-
reaved by the death of the Duke
of Kent, King Georges youngest
brother, on a wartime mission.
The Duke, fifth in succession to
the throne, died in line Of duty yes
terday when the Sunderland flying
boat which was taking him to Ice
land for the Raj crashed in North
ern Ireland.
Circumstances surrounding the
crash of the four-engined, 20-ton
flying boat were held in strict
secrecy, but an authoritative source
said 1t was in no way due to enemy
action.
The plane was believed to have
crashed against mountain.
The lord chamberlain announced
that by command of the King the
court would remain in mourning
four weeks.
Fourteen of the Is persons in the
plane were killed and their bodies
recovered. The only survivor was
the rear gunner.
Among those in the plane was
Michael Strut tho Du,kc,S oida opd
son of Lord Delper. He is survived
by his widow, the former Arielle
Frazer, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Washington Frazer of De-
troit. He once worked in Wall
Street.
The body of the Duke, who was
the first member of the British
royal family killed in an airplane
and its first to become a fatality of
war in century, was to be brought
to London later.
Crash Being Investigated.
An Air Ministry investigation has
been launched into the crash, which
occurred in desolate country about
so miles from the takeof. Press
reports said it was in an area where
other planes have been wrecked.
Semi-offlcial sources emphasized
that the pilot was one OF the most
capable in the RAF.
The 39-year-old youngest son of
Queen Mary and the late King
George v was the most minded
of all the royal family.
His career in Britain's service
began as a naval cadet, at his
fathers choice, before he was IA.
But his interest turned to aviation
and he served devotedly with the
RAF.
The marriage of the Duke OF Kent
to beautiful Princess Marina of
Greece in 1884 was one of the most
respondent royal occasions of the
century. They had three children,
Prince Edward, g. Princess Alex
andra, S, and Prince George, who
was born last July and bears also
the name of Franklin for President
Roosevelt, his godfather.
AS soon as news of Kent's death
was telephoned to King George and
Queen Elizabeth at one of their sum-
mer palaces, the king sent a special
messenger to break it to the duchess
at her simple Buckinghamshire
house, the Coppins, and arranged

Committee Is SET Up
By WPB for Pooling
hon-War Industries
Weiner Named Chuirman:
Firms Using Metals Likely
To Be First Affected
BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

First steps toward pooling Of
essential non-war industries in
the United States were taken to-
day when the War Production
Board announced appointment of
a Committee on Concentration
Of Production.
The chairman of the new group
is Joseph L. Weiner, deputy director
of the Office of Civilian Supply. He
indicated at press conference
today that his committee would have
full authority to order the pooling
of industries and trades, subject
only to the approval of Donald M.
Nelson, WPB chairman.
In addition to Mr.. Weiner, the
members of the new committee are
Lou Holland, deputy chairman of
WPB for smaller war plants;
Amory Houghton, director general
for operations, and Wendell Lund,
director of the labor production
division of WPB.
Other members may be added
later.
Mr.. Weiner said industries using
metals probably would be the first
affected by the concentration pro-
gram.
But the entire plan, he emphasized,
still Is to be worked out since the
committee has just been established
and has not met.
No Plans for Retail Trade.
Mr.. Weiner suggested that the
committee might consider trans
portation concentrations at an early
date, adding, however, that thus far
present systems had been doing a
good job.
Mr.. Weiner said the committee
did not plan, at least for the present,
to consider concentration of retail
trade.
THAT is not on our agenda," he
explained.
Mr.. Weiner indicated that the
main points to be considered in ar
ranging for the concentration of any
would be the location of
plants, the needs of the war effort
and the labor situation.
Such concentrations as the COM
mittee may order, he said, will be
carried out after thorough consulta-
ton with the WPB industries
branches, the industries themselves
and labor representatives.
While concentration of industries
has been discussed for some time
and Mr.. Nelson had sent a direc-
tive to the WPB industries branches
asking them to begin such a study.
today's announcement revealed the
first concrete action toward carry
Ing out the program,
Report on British System.
Attending Mr.. Weiner's press con-
ference were DR.. Arthur r. Burns
and Henry A. Dinegar of the Office
OF Civilian Supply, who have just re-
turned from study Of industrial
concentration in England.
Those observers reported that
when concentration was started in
England in March. 1941, the in
dustries themselves did the pooling
under the direction of the Board Of
Trade, but 1t was found later that
the responsibilities were too great
