Rum Tipping
After going to court the blonde,
blue-eyed Mrs. H. appeared In the

She said that she met Flynn in
the Beachcomber cafe, one Of Holly
woods most expensive restaurants,
where rum Is the usual tipple. She
said Flynn gave her glass Of same

Then she said he took her into his

"Shush," said Lawyer Taylor.

to Henry Nassau, ot1e-tirne musician

The reporters kept trying to get
the conversation back to the rum
and the automobile, Taylor kept
shushing, and Mrs. Nassau kept
changing the subject. It was not O
satisfactory interview.
A final mystery 1t did not explain
was the settlement Of $4,000 made
upon her by Flynn in 1910, q week
after her baby was born. Court

NEW EFFECTIVE HAY
FEVER RELIEF

Hay fever, which annually causes
more SneezeS, more inf1amed noses
and more red, streaming eyes than
any other Scourge, may have its
final big fling this September, all
because a Pennsylvania electrical
engineer was served a dish of corn
meal mush which was entirely too
salty.
The engineer, sneezing, and with
all other hay fever manifestations,
stopped at a hotel where he was
served a dish of mush which he
considered sending back as it was
much too salty. Finally he ate it,
however; the hay fever attack les
sened, ultimately ceased. Next day
he had three meals, all oVersalted,
and experienced his most comfort
able time in years in the HAY fever
season.
His analytical mind quickly
grasped the possibility that the
saline substance in his food was
responsible for his relief.
About this time, DR.. E. E. Sell
leck, a graduate of Columbia Uni
VerSity, met the engineer, made
notes, and when he returned to his
home, began experiments. Today
DR.. Selleck declares he has found
a certain means of relief for hay
fever and is supported in his con-
tention by other medical experts,
and nationally known chemical
manufacturing concern, the Hol-
lings-Smith Company, at Orange
burg, New York. has taken over
making the remedy, which is called
Nakamo Bell.
Describing the experiments, DR..
Selleck said, After l was sure l
had found a means of quickly re-
lieving hay fever through the chlor-
ide group, tested it in the most
practical way l knew. l held a
three day clinic, to which many
hay fever sufferers responded,
from ages ranging from 10 to 60
years. Each person was given two
tablets with a little water. Some
relief came to all within ten min
utes. Reports on these cases dur
ing the ensuing weeks showed
practically complete cessation of
symptoms. ADV.

Then on January %, Secretary Slim
son announced that the army was
going to form combat units of loyal
Japanese-Americans.
All the Sakura brothers volun-
teered, and were accepted, although
the eldest was 81. They are train
ing with an earnestness that sur
prises their officers, as are all the
members of this unit at Camp Shell

ton of Japanese immigrantwho ap-
preciated America is being fulfilled.

Beginning January of this year,
WRA initiated a program of steady
depopulation of the centers by en-
couraging residents with good rec

employment in agriculture or indus

Relocation Offices were set up in
Chicago, Cleveland, New York, Kan

City and Denver to seek jobs for
Acknowledgements.
Each relocation area has sub
offices. The Chicago area, for ex-

half of North Dakota. Elmer L.

Food for evacuees at camp is re-

corps and cost must not exceed As
cents per day per evacuee.
Each camp has schools, churches,
Fairgrounds, recreation halls, YMCA
units and sometimes a boy and
girl scout troop. Each camp has

and each block is represented in the

Knox Sees Obvious Error
In Truman Ship Loss Report
Overall AZ Construction Exceeded Sinkings
He Says, With Actual Dutu Kept Secret
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Secretary of the Navy Knox,
declaring there was an obvious
error" in the Truman Senate
War Investigating Committee re-
port on shipbuilding and heavy
ship losses, said today that over
all Allied ship construction in
1912 actually exceeded sinkings.
The sinking loss figure of l,000, 200
tons month which was given in the
Truman Committee account was de-
scribed by Mr.. Knox as coming
from some unauthorized and unin-
formed source because the true fig
ures have never been given out"
Discussing the report at a press
conference, the Secretary empha-
sized several times that he thought
it was on the whole "a great re-
port and very fair and that he
was not criticizing it or attempting
to place himself in conflict with the
committee.
What he does desire to do, he
said, is call attention to an obvious
error" as to sinkings and ship con-
struction.
In this connection he made two
main points:
First, he said that the loss figures
of 100000 tons a month or 12,000,-
Evening star., 1943-04-23

900 tons for the year figure were
wrong, although he did not explain
whether they were too great or too
small
Second, he said that overall Allied
building exceeded overall Allied ship
losses.
The Truman Committee was ex-
plicit, in its section on construction
figures, in using the term dead
weight tons" whereas in its dis
cussion of sinkings. it spoke OF
tons of shipping" without saying
whether they were deadweight tons
or gross tons.
Mr. Knox used this as basis for
his argument, saying that ap-
parently the committee report on
sfnkings was an expression sof losses
in gross tons.
A single deadweight ton Is about
so per cent greater than single
gross ton and it would be entirely
improper, he declared, to make a
comparison between two totals one
of which, was, deadweight and the
other gross tonnage.
Thus, he said even if the 100000
figure had been right the committee
would have been in error in drawing
a conclusion as to whether more OF
less tonnage was built than was lost

NEW YORK, April 23.-John L.
Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers, charged today
that the Northern Appalachian
soft coal operators had taken
French leave" from the negotia-
tions, but he declined to disclose
the unions next move.
The northern operators an
nounced at the end of the morning
session that they were leaving i'm
mediately for Washington, where
tomorrow they will answer a sum-
mons from the War Labor Board to
which the wage dispute has been
certified.
Mr.. Lewis met with the union
scale committee at the usual 2
O'Clock afternoon meeting time and
on emerging said:
I'm accordance with the chair
mans recess of the conference we
were present at the hour of recon-
vening. We waited 20 minutes.
They have not appeared. They have
disrupted this conference and con-
travened it rules-taken French
leave all in violation Of the 30-day
extension.
Il will make no further comment
at this time"
In answer to all questions, Mr.
Lewis merely referred to the letter
he gave yesterday to DIR. John r.
Steelman, head of the United States
Cancellation Service In that letter
Mr.. Lewis. said the miners would
consider "discontinuance or disrup-
ton of the negotiations as reliev-
ing them of the obligation to recog-
nize the temporary agreement un-
der which the present contract,
which expired March 81, was ex-
tended to April 30.
The operators said yesterday that
they considered acceptance of the
WLB summons as Continued oper-
alton" .aE
Mr.. Lewis has refused to say what
the unions position on the summons
would be.
Charles ONeill, spokesman for the
operators, said that as far as the
operators we're concerned the con-
ference was recessed, subject to the
call of Ezra Van Horn, the chair
man.
Mr.. ONeill, at general press
conference after the morning ses-
sion, said the operators would "ac-
cept the summons of the WLB as
continued negotiation and will pre-
sent their case to the board for final
determination"
The operators spokesman said
the miners insisted that the confer
ence continIs negotiating. Asked
if the operators could recess with
