Rita Hayworth's engagement to

those if-and-when things; they'll be
married when they are freed by di-

Incidentally, Greer Garson's en-
gagement to Richard Ney seems to
be a thing of the past. 1t didn't
seem like the kind, of troth that Hol-
lywood executives approve for their

enough in the picture business. On
the other hand, she seems to be the
kind of person who does as she
ikes-and with "Mrs. Miniver" to
her credit she could do it.

CHINESE CLEAR
 YANCTZE RIVER
BY GEORGE WANG limited Press Staff Correspondent


 Chungking, June 5. - (UP) - Dispatches today reported Chinese penetration of Ichang and indicated fast-moving Chinese armies were clearing both sides of the Yanktze river in a major bid to recapture that Japanese advanced base.
 The Central (Chinese) News Agency said 800 enemy troops were killed Thursday when the Chinese seized a northern Ichang suburb and that the city itself was thrown into confusion by raid in which warehouses, barracks and oil stor- age facilities were set aflame
 The next day, Central said, Chinese forces north of Ichang penetrated into Tankyang, strategic town 20 miles northeast of Ichang.
 The central dispatches indicated these Chinese forces came from the western Hupeh province area north of the river.
 Meanwhile, the south side of the river opposite Ichang and for miles eastward toward Funk Ting Lake had been cleared of Japanese troops.
 Successful crossing of the river east of Ichang by forces either from the north or south would cut off that base, disrupt the enemy's river traffic and trap considerable Japan ese forces, 1t was believed.
 The river traffic already was men aced by Chinese troops who had re- stored the Wesernhuph situation as 1t was prior to last months Japan csc offensive, which was beaten back with heavy losses in one of China's greatest victories.

REP. U. S. CULVER
 TAKEN BY DEATH

Washington, June - (U.P) -, Representative U. s. Guyer, R., Kansas, died at the Naval Hospital at nearby Bethesda, Md, at 5:23 a.. m. today. He was admitted to the hospital several days ago suffering from complications of several dis eases.
 Guyer's death was announced by Captain John Harper, executive officer at the hospital.
 The widow survives.
 Guyer was best known for his crusading speeches against liquor and vice. He never gave up in his efforts to reinstate national prohi- bition.
 He was the ranking Republican member of the house judiciary com mittee and was the sponsor of one of several anti-poll tax bills intro duced this year. The house recently approved an anti-poll tax bill which bore the name of Representative Vito Marcantonio, American-Labor- ite N. Y.
 Guyer first was elected to con- gress in 1924 to fill four months of the unexpired term of the late E.. c. Little He was elected to the roth congress in 1927 and has served continuously since.

the leaders of the Republican party in this city are apparently not in- terested in the success of the party in the coming election. Mir. Upson bluntly replied, "NonsenseI To say that the leaders are not interested in the success of the party is folly. Of course, there is bound to be dif- ferenceS of opinion as to the best way of promoting Republican suc- cess.
 When was town chairman, I was interested in having the party run by Republicans, and I still am. I tried to find out what the de- sires of the Republicans were and tried to fulfill them. I know Chair man Vernon Hall feels the same and is trying to do the same. It is easy for MT. Udelowitz or anyone else to sit back and criticize. It is a much harder thing to find out what the majority of the Republi- cans want and do it."
 One of MT. Udelowitz's accepted resolutions that of abolishing the present rule which demands candi- dates in the primaries to file fees before they can run, to which MT. Upson commented: My opinion is that there should be no filing fee as prerequisite for filing prim- ary ticket. If candidate has enough voters who are interested enough to sign his petition in num- bers sufficient to give him a place on the ticket he should have the right to run without having to pay any fees"
 With regard to the statement that the district leaders, who select the delegates, are picked directly by the town chairman and not by the mem bers of the town committee, and that the town committee members, who are directly appointed by the Republican voters have no part in selecting the delegates who form the official party slate, he added:
 "The town committee members ought to be consulted. In most cases they are. The majority work together tremendously with the dis trict leaders. AS a practical pro- gram 1t would be good thing for the town committee to get the dis trict leaders together often and dis cuss organizational problems and appointing delegates"

Mayor Meets With Advisors to Prepare for Challenge;
 J. Francis Smith May Direct Campaign

Mayor John s. Monagan and his associates met yesterday to outline their plans for an anticipated Dem ocratic primary battle which will be necessary to decide the party nominee for mayor and the entire ticket.
 A belligerent council was held in Mayor Monagan's office late yes- terday afternoon which included J. Francis Smith, former Democratic state chairman and for some time known as the power behind the throne in the local Democratic or ganization. Others present were: Controller Cornelius F. Maloney, secretary of the Democratic town committee Rep. John Membrino. an assistant corporation counsel, Pro- bate Judge Patrick F. Healey, his brother. Atty, Frank Healey, Dan iel T. Harrington, Jr., Executive Secretary John P. Fitzmaurice and other leaders.
 It was plainly visible that "cer- tain oppositional members of the Democratic leaders were not pres ent.
 One of the purposes of the meet ing was to take steps to fight Sen John F. Tobin's opposition and his organization to the renomination of Mayor Monagan and the other present Democratic city officials.
 Sen. Tobin was nominated despite the opposition of the city admins tration last fall, at which time the late Vincent Scully was the mayor, and has continued to introduce and sponsor bills in the legislature against the wishes of the present administration.

House Destroyed

Aviolent explosion and fire last night completely destroyed the home of John Judd on Christian Road in Middlebury. The confla- grafton started shortly after ten D. m., when, as frie officials be- lieve, a short circuit in an auto mobile housed in the basement garage ignited the contents of its gasoline tank. The ensuing blast catapulted MT. Judd from bed and rattled windows of neighboring homes. No one was injured, how ever.
 The house, which burned to the ground in less than an hour, had been recently built by MT. Judd, and was also occupied by his son. Spencer, who was not at home last night.

 Contention Day

New York, N. Y, June B. Convention Sunday" will be observed by most of the 5000 churches of the Northern Bap- tist Convention (denomina- tion) on June 6.
 Due to war conditions, the annual meeting of the national body was cancelled. The local meetings in thirty-seven states, will hear reports on the work of the denomination as given in twelve-page newspaper mailed this week to 350,000 families in the churches.
 In most cases, pastors will make the reports.
 A million and a half dollar World Emergency Forward fund was adopted by the gen. eral council, the executive body of the organization, last week at Chicago. War emergencies and world relief will receive $700,000, church extension, $20O,O00, and postwar needs, $6OO,O0O.

 To Upson's Statement

personality. Regardless of his avowed opposition to having "stooges" make up the convention dates, it is strange that the con- ventions have been made up of nothing else but "stooges." And the same can be said of the town committee. He was interested in having the party run by Republi- cans. What kind of Republicans?
 His statement that he tried to find out what the Republican was Is sheer hypocrisy. Arrogance has been his most conspicuous trait.
 MT. Upson characterizes my state ment that the leaders of the party are apparently not interested in party success as nonsense" Well, MT. Upson, you would rather be considered as incompetent rather than disloyal. Well, I don't blame you. It isn't nice to have such a charge pinned on you. You admit that you are incompetent, when you make the statement that 1t is easy to criticize, but it is much harder thing to find out what the majority of the Republicans want, and to do it. It has proven to be too hard a task for your abilities. For proof, look at the record.
