VALE OF KASHMIR'
 THEME OF LECTURE
Scenes of India, Rarely Photographed, to Be Pre-
 scented By Edith Bane

Edith Bane, lecturer, author, mu- sician and traveller, will be the speaker at the Second Church Forum on Sunday evening. April II, at 7:30 o'clock. Her lecture "In- dia and the Vale of Kashmir" will be illustrated with kodachrome mos ton pictures and colored slides.
 Miss Bane goes alone with her camera into spots off the beaten track where the average traveller never ventures. She has photo graphed India from Madura to the Himalayas. AS she is especially inc terested in people, whether sophis- ticated or primitive, her pictures are interesting and realistic cross sec- ton of various classes, customs and conditions in this country, which Is of such vital interest to us today. Included in her colored pictures, motion and still, are maharajas, temples, pageants. mendicants, un- touchables. fakirs, scenes of primi- tive rural life. congested city streets. bazaars. burning ghats. a dramatic fight between a mongoOse and a cobra, a caravan in Khyber Pass and the matchless beauty of the Vale of Kashmir with its romantic Shala- mar Garden. colorful shikaras, fas- cinating househoats and snow capped Himalayas.
 Her lectures are filled with hu- man interest and humor as well as accurate information about people and places she has visited. They have entertainment appeal. cultural and artistic value. Edith Bane's travel articles and pictures have ape peared in leading magazines. She is a member of the National League of American Pen Women.
 Enthusiastic tributes have been paid Miss Bane at all the places where she has lectured. Among some of the more important are Columbia University. New York city, Geographical Society of Philadel- phia: Buffalo Museum of Science; | Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sci- ences: Academy of Arts and Sciences of chicago: University of Cincinnati and many others.

MACARTHUR HALLS
 YANKEE HEROISM
Statement COmmemOrateS First Anniversary of
 Fall of Bataan
BY RRYDON c, TAVES United Press Stan CorreSnOnden,

Gen, MacArtl.ur,S Headquarters, Australia, April 9, CUPl-Gen, Douglas Macarthur. in a ringing tribute railing the heroiSm of Americans who fought in the Philippines, issued a statement to- day in coEnmemoration of the first anniversary of the fall of Bataan, saying he hoped the liberation Of tho iSladnS would take place soon,
 Macarthur, in his first public statement mentioning Bataan since its fall, pointed out that the Amer ican flag had been Spat upon by the Japanese, that Americans and FillpinoS were imprisoned and i6,- O0O,0OO island residents enSlaved.
 His statement follows;
 "one year ago today the dimming lights of Bataan;S forlorn hope tlut- tered and died,
 Its prayers by that tlme-and it prayed as well aS foOght---were re- duced to the simple formula rem dered by hungry men through cracked and parching lips, give us this day our daily bread.' The light failed.
 "Bataan was starved into collapse. Our flag lies crumpled, its proud ptntonS Spat upon in the gutter: the wreckS of what were once our men and women groan and sweat In prison toil; our faithful Filipino wards l6.000,O0 souls, gasp in S!av- cry under a conquering soldiery de- void of those ideals of chivalry which have so dignified many armies.
 T was the leader of that lost cause and from the bottom of my stricken heart pray that a merci- full God may not delay too long their redemption, that the day of salvation be not so far removed that they perish. that it be not again too late
 The statement, written by Mac Arthur on a sheet of plain note paper, again revealed the depth of his feeling toward the Philippines and the army that went through more than three months of pain and hunger on Bataan in a hope less cause.
 He once said to fellow officers: ~Bataan is like child in family who dies. It lives in our hearts"
 There was TO other commemora- tion of the anniversary of the sur render of 35.OOO United States and Philippines troops.
 MacArthur left the Philippines for Australia with the hope that he could organize an immediate offen- tive against Japan. He knew that Lieut.. Gen. Jonathan M. Vain wright and his men could not long hold out. But, instead, he found Australia itself in danger of inva- sion. its defenseS weak and the movement of troops and supplies from the United States inadequate.
 Nor has he been able tO carry out his plans for a major offensive in the year since Bataan because of the allied commitment to lick Hit- Ter first.
 His statement today indicated that although his hands have been tied militarily by global strategy of the United Nations. he is working earnestly toward the day of sal- vation."

WAR LOAN DRIVE
 TO OPEN MONDAY
National Bond Campaign to Continue Until $l3,-
 OOO,OOO,OOO Is Topped

Washington, April 9.-(UP)-Art is going to war on the home front to sell war bonds and David Finley. director of the National Gallery of Art here, will be the general" the treasury said today.
 Actually, Finley will be chairman of the national committee of mu- scum directors for an "art for bonds" exhibition as part of the Sl3,0O0 O00,0 900 second war loan drive beginning Monday.
 Finley said 24 original paintings for war bond posters had been given to the treasury to promote bond sales. The pictures include works by such American painters as Alex ander Brook. Reginald Marsha and John Steuart Curry. One painting will be presented to each of 24 mu- seums throughout the country when their cities twin" one by selling an adequate amount of bonds.
 Brooklyn, N. Y. would start the "art for bonds" drive under pro- posal made by Finley to the Brook yn committee of honorary sponsors. Finley suggested to Philip A. Ben son, chairman of the Kings county second war loan committee. and Mrs. Laurance P. Roberts. curator in-chief of the Brooklyn Museum, that Brooklyn establish S5C0.0O0 war bond sales quota. By reaching that figure, the Brooklyn Museum WcU,d qualify for one of the paint ings.
 War bonds, however, are not the only government securities to be sold to raise the $l3.000. 900 900 the United States needs to finance the war. They are the little $25 and up bonds that appeal to most peo- pie, but the treasury will offer other securities running all the way up to $l. 100000 to satisfy every type Of investor
 The Allied Newspaper Council. which includes many of the leading newspaper editors and publishers in the country, has committed the American press to the job of put ling over the drive. Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., looks to the papers to tell the people who buy bonds tile needs and pur- poses Of the $l3,O0O 100000. More than half this sum-at least s8O0O,- 100000 will be invested by non- banking investors while the banks themselves will take S5. 1000, 900, 900 or less of the total.
 The drive opens Monday and will continue open until the goal Is reached. but the government, need ing ships. planes. guns, tanks and ammunition badly, wants to close the drive as soon as possible.

Hartford, Conn.,, April 9. - (UP) - The Legislative Public Health and Safety Committee today made a favorable report on the birth control bill, one of the most con- trovesial issues in past legislatures. The measure was expected to pass the house, but not the senate.
 The bill permitted registered phy- sicians and hospitals receiving state grants to prescribe use of contraceptives by married women, and stipulated that the pharmacy commissioners shall establish stand ards for devices and that sales shall be made only by registered phar- macistS.
 The house was expected to pass the bill by a two to one margin, but opponents said at least 20 of the 36 senators would vote against it when it reaches the upper cham Der.
 Nervous tension increased in the legislature, meantime, as the time drew near for Governor Baldwins major appointments. They prob ably will be made next week. There also was considerable excitement over reports the governor would veto the bill restoring forfeited rights to Harry Mackenzie, Bethel, former Fairfield County Republican leader.
 The battle of nerves underway in the legislature caused Q minor re- volt of Republicans in the house on a Putnam bill late yesterday, on- ly 24 hours after several senate republicans bolted their party leadership. Republican leaders in- sisted, however. the situation was under control and that no loss of party power was evident.
 Major committees, meanwhile continued to report out scores ot bills as hearings virtually drew to a close.
 The judiciary committee voted favorable report on statewide pro- bation bill, freezing all fuil-time probation officers in jobs they may have on September l. The proba. ton system would be administered by a board of five appointed by superior court judges. The board would name q director to supervise the system.
 The public welfare and humane institutions committee reported fay' orably on a bill setting up stat' hospital for inebriates and drui addicts. The measure now goes tt the appropriations committee.
 The constitutional amendment committee reported favorably on bill providing that the lieutenant' governor elect shall become gover' nor if the governor-elect dies hefoF' taking office.
