TELLS Of Heroism Of
Boy Now in Bethesda

The story of Doyle House, radio
man third class, who was the frs,
enlisted man in the Navy to set
foot on Sicily, was told by Rear
Admiral c. H. Woodward, U. S. N.
before the Society of Mayflower
Descendants last night.

at Bethesda, far from his home and
friends" Admiral Woodward de-
clared. "His nerves have paid a
heavy price for the ordeal that he
suffered and House, a disabled vet
eran at the age of 20, will probably
never fight again"

McAteer, Irish Rebel Chief,
Taken by Police in Kitchen

Py the Associated Press.
BELFAST, Northern Ireland, Nov.
20.-Police put an unspectacular
end today to the spectacular activi-
ties of Hugh McAteer, Irish rebel
leader who slid down rope of bed
sheets to escape from Belfast
prison last January after serving
two months of a 15-year sentence
for treason.
Two constables on bicycles saw
him walking along path, chased
him into house, and found him
sitting in the kitchen, where he said
amicably, "Okay, boys, guess it's
over"
McAteer was the young revolu-
tionary who once warned the United
States that American troops in
Northern Ireland certainly would
become involved in a resumption
of hostilities between Ireland and
Great Britain"
Last April, with a $4,000 price on
his head, he and three heavily
armed companions walked into a
Belfast movie, stopped the show
and conducted memorial services
honoring "the men who have died
for Ireland"

Wiggins Urges Probe
Of Production Credit Setuu

Ey the Associated Press
A. L. M. Virgins, president of the
American Bankers Association, yes

vestigation of the Production Credit
Association system Ito find out if
it is accomplishing the purpose it
was set up for 10 years ago."
While vigorously affirming his be-
lief in and support of sound, CO.
operative production credit plan
for farmers, Mr.. Virgins told a
House Agriculture Subcommittee
investigating activities of the Farm
Credit Administration that the Pro-
duction Credit Associations are
masquerading" as co-operatives.
THE Pea system" Mr.. Virgins
said, could stand on its own feet.
Certain injustices in its present or
ganization are unfair to private cap
ital and should be eliminated and
could be eliminated without de-
stroying the system
AS it is, he said, the country
banking system in this country

Novenus Asked for Miraculous
Recovery Of Tommy Dunigon

Tommy Dunigans S headmaster at
Gonzaga High School last night
appealed to "all who think in prayer"
to make novena to Our Lady of the
Miraculous Medal for the full re-
covery of the 15-year-old boy who
lies in Providence Hospital with
fractured vertebrae and a severed
spinal cord.
Father Francis E. Garner of Con-
zaga, who has been at Tommy's
bedside often in the II days since
the boy was injured playing foot
ball. readily admitted it would take
a miracle for Tommy to recover the
use of his arms and legs.
But Father Garner as well as
Providence Hospital officials believe
it IS almost a miracle that Tommy
has lived, particularly after his
fever rose to 109 degrees.
The appeal to prayer came after
Father Garner learned that in
tiny church in Texas, the priest had
asked his congregation to pray for
the boy in Providence Hospital.
Messages of PRAYER and hope have
Evening star., 1943-11-21

also come from as far away as
Arkansas and many people here
have called the hospital to ask about
the boys condition.
The novena to Our Lady of the
Miraculous Medal was asked for
several reasons, Father Garner ex-
planned. The words of this devo-
tion are well known to many non-
Catholics as well as Catholics and
Tommy wears the medal He wore
it the day of the football practice
that ended in tragedy and the medal
was not taken from him.
Father Garner said that Tommy
is very conscious that he cannot
move his arms and legs.
When he learned that his class
mates at Gonzaga were praying for
him, he asked the priest:
Are they praying specifically that
I can move my arms and legs
again?"
The priest said he nodded his
head and Tommy went on:
Then tell them to pray with all
their hearts"

Citizens Federation

In line with the action of its Loca

ments, the Federation of Citizens
Associations last night approved the
report by vote of 43-7, with one
delegate not voting, in a special
meeting at the District Building.
The vote followed a discussion OF
more than two hours. AS passed ii
included two amendments proposed
by President Harry Wender. The
first would provide for a mayor or
officer of similar status to preside
over the proposed city council OF
seven members, and the second
would guarantee the election of a
substantial number of councilmen
at least three, on a city-wide basis
The mayor also would be elected on
this basis
Discussion OF the bill brought out
that the ward form of elections

City's Last Chance.
Wilbur p. Finch, chairman of the
Suffrage Committee, declared that
the McCarran bill probably repre-
sented the city's last opportunity to
obtain some form of self govern
ment and that it was not a matter
OF local suffrage against national
representation. but of getting the
opportunity for the city to govern
itself. He said the bill also would
relieve Congress of the responsibility
OF acting as a. city council.
Mr.. Finch said the fact that Sena-
tor McCarran, chairman of the
Senate District Committee now had
drawn up bill to introduce local
suffrage represented a long step in
the right direction. He warned the
delegates that failure to support the
bill would end congressional efforts
to gain vote for the city for years
to come.
Arguments of opponents of the bill
that the city had proved incapable
OF self government when it was in
effect here in the last century were
refuted by statements that the Dis
trlct area was "a wilderness then,
not a great metropolis, as it is now.
with a population we'll over 100000"
Just Few Crumbs.
Opponents characterized the Nc
Carran bill as an effort to give
the city "a few crumbs from the rich
mans table to keep us from asking
for the whole turkey" and most of
them said it would not be worth
while to surrender the privilege of
national representation they now
hold in home States for that of vot-
Ing for city council.
This argument was met with state
ments that many Government clerks
voting in nearby Maryland and Vir-
ginia town for local officers also
voted back home for national repre-
sentatives in Congress and for the
presidential candidates. It was
argued that the question of whether
persons now voting by absentee bal
lot could vote for local municipal
officers and still retain their State
votes would be up to the legislature. +,

emphasized, would be forced to sur
