To Escape From D. T.. Jail

Police are searching today for
Broadus Mungo, 81, colored, 20O9 L
street NV, who escaped from the
District Jail last night after climb
ing over an 8-foot wall surrounding
the recreation yard before the eyes
of an unarmed guard.
Mungo, who was convicted of sec
ond-degree murder in 1941, had
served little more than two years
OF an 8-to-24-year sentence. He
was convicted of the murder of
Ernest F. Bowling, colored, during
the first part of February, 1941.
He made his escape shortly after
7 pm. when prisoners were lined up
in the recreation yard, preparing to
return to the building. Mungo
started running and had vaulted
over the wall before guards could
stop him, they said.
He recently had been transferred
from the Lorton Reformatory and
was regarded as model prisoner,

200 miles from the scene of the

The prisoners included several
officers. They told our intelligence
officers that they had been informed
they would encounter no air oppo-
sition-that our air base at Port
Moresby had been practically wiped
out and that our ground forces had
been beaten back across the noun

The boys all credited Gen. Ken
ney with planning and ordering the
attack in a way that made it so
successful and so inexpensive in the
matter of our lives.
AS for the matter of expense, one
air officer was of the opinion that
any one of the Jap Warships de-
stroyed cost more than all the
planes we used to attack the convoy.
Coming back by air transport we
saw bombers and fighters alighting
and departing at our island Stepping
stones on their way Southport of
the growing air strength that is now
making things so uncomfortable for
the Jap in the Southwest Pacific.
And when we saw the units here
and the equipment in final tactical
training for overseas, we realized
what small force it was that wiped
out the big convoy. We could hit

The Japs were on everything. There
had been a lot of lumber on the
decks OF their ships and they were
clinging to planks and timbers.
Others were just standing in the
water, clustered like the larvae on
the surface of a stagnant pool. They
were supported by their life vests
Mae Vests" we call them. They
all had their full equipment, helmets
and packs AS we would fly over the
tin hats would tip up and you could
see the expressions on their faces.
They were not happy ones.
We played around there for over
an hour. At first we would pick out
the biggest punches to strafe with
our machine guns. 1t finally got

In on a group standing in the water,
one of the Japs was swimming away
from the rest.
There he was" the pilot put it,
swimming away from the others
with nonchalant hand-oyer-hand
stroke. Somehow or other that made
me sore. So made special point
to bank my plane and come back to
get him"

Thanksgiving Turkeys

Despite the large number of tur-
keys the Army and Navy are buying
for fighting men overseas, there will

ministrator.
He told Senate Agriculture Sub

fortune Teller
Claims License
mot Required

Mrs. Zoe Lydia Eggers, 221O
Pennsylvania avenue NV, pleaded
not guilty in Municipal Court yes
terday when arraigned on a charge
of telling fortunes without a L.
cense. The case has raised a ques-
ton that puzzles the Corporation
Counsel's office-is an ordained
minister entitled to tell fortunes
without license?
Mrs. Eggers says that she is an
ordained minister of the Spiritualis-
tic Church. and her attorney, James
Laughlin, contends that the law
provides that ministers are entitled
to tell fortunes without a license,
provided the proceeds are turned
over to the church.
When Judge Thomas Quinn
granted a request to continue the
case to october 13, Mr.. Laughhn
asked whether the date fell on a
Friday. Assured that it did not, he
agreed to the date.

Aid War Fund
Opening Luncheon of
Government Division
Set for Tomorrow

President Roosevelt today called
on Government workers to support
the Community War Funds cam
paign to raise $4,800,0O0 during
October.
In a letter made public by war
fund headquarters Mr. Roosevelt
characterized contributions to the
War Fund as an opportunity" to
help both at home and abroad.
The opening luncheon for Govern
ment Division workers at 1890 pm.
tomorrow at the Statler Hotel will
be addressed by G. Rowland Shaw,
Assistant Secretary of State.
Walter Lippmann, columnist, will
be guest speaker at the Metropoh-
tan Division War Fund luncheon at
l pm. Saturday, October 16, at the
Mayf1oWer Hotel. He will speak on
Relations of Social Service in War"
President Roosevelt, in his letter
to the heads of all departments, es-
Establishments and agencies of the
Federal Government, said:
Once again the citizenship is to
be approached with a request for
contributions to the National and
Community War Funds. I ask all
persons in authority in offices of the
Federal Government throughout the
United States to extend their full
cooperation to the local campaigns
for this cause. Such cooperation
logically includes both the organi-
zation of effective solicitation and
the subsequent setting up of an ade-
quate collection method for the con-
venience of those who wish to make
subscriptions on an installment
basis.
''The agencies include three types
of service which are: Firstly, those
dedicated to the aid and comfort
of our armed forces at home and
abroad; secondly, those devoted to
the assistance of our Allies both in
occupied and unoccupied territories,
and thirdly, those services which are
included in local welfare and Com
munity Chests. To each individual
anxious to do his part to support
these extensive services one ad-
vantage is obvious; he can make
one pledge to cover these essential
welfare needs for the coming year"
II ask all employees to remember,
when they are approached for their
contributions, that this is an oppor-
tunity through sacrifice to reach
their friends and neighbors at home
and our men and women in service,
and also carry message to the far
flung fronts which are our shield
Preston Delano is chairman of

Wednesday when the medium
bombers first hit the japanese ships.
The shooting was found to be acci-
dental. But it led to lot of talking
and the story got around that the
mopping up was too much for our
stomachs.
I think it is the strain of COM
bat flying, the necessity of doing
so many things so quickly to save
yourself and your crew when under
fire, that gets on some pilots
nerves. One of two in every squad
ron shows the strain, so they have
to be transferred to desk work
sometimes they are sent home.
