LOS ANGELES - (SNS) - Pol
ice early Thursday morning took in
to custody Clarence Moore, widely
known in local sporting and bust
ness circles after he had allegedly
administered a terrific beating on
the person Of his attractive wife and
later abducted her from the home
of friends where she had been hid
ing at the point of a gun. Moore,
owner of the sWank Memo cocktail
bar in the heart of the Central Ave-
nue. business area, was held on the
temporary charge of suspicion of
kidnapping, but later effected his re-
lease on a writ Of habeas corpus.
According to University division
detectives Bowers and Houston who
investigated the sensational happen
ings in the 100 block in West 18th
street Thanksgiving night, Moore,
accompanied by two unidentified
men both assertedly armed, went to
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Turner
at 153 w. 48th street and forcibly
entered with drawn revolvers. After
lining the occupants up against the
wall, the trio then grabbed Mrs. Re-
gina Moore, wife of the cafe man.
and dragged her protesting from the
place.
The Turner's were prevented from
| interfering by the menacing guns OF
/ the trio Neighbors aroused by the
unusual bedlam rushed out to the
walk, and they too, were said to
have been held at bay by the gun
men During the scuffling period
Mrs. Moore put on with her enrag-
ed estranged husband, one of the
home occupants called police. AS
the car occupied by Moore and his
aides sped away shots were fired.
Officers arriving on the scene
found the neighborhood in an up
roar The Turner's and other men
aced neighbors gave police a vivid
picture of the kidnapping struggle
1 A teletype alarm with full descrip-
ton Of Moore and his wife was
broad. Tt warned that the man was
desperate and might attempt tC
take the life of his wife. Later
Moore was captured by police ir
Newton division. Mrs. Moore when
located was found TO have suffered
4 bruises which were. believed receiv-
eel during the struggle before being
thrown into her husbands car

By December. -1943, one-third of
the women of workin gage - 17.4
million women - will be required
for the Civilian Labor Force and

Chairman Paul V. McNutt. At least
two million women must be added

Lower Potato Prices 7 Per Cent.
Consumers ceiling prices on po-

7 per cent, according to a recent

Sugar Supply For 1943
On the basis of prospective 1943
supplies of sugar, the current level
of consumption in this country
probably can be maintained, the
War Food Administration has an
nounced. The ALLEGATION of the
prospective supply will be as fol-
lows: 1,153,000 tons for the arm
ed forces, Lend-Lease and other
exports. and 100000 tons for ci-
william uses. The civilian uses in
clude an estimated 2,25S,000 tons
for household use and home can

Washington, D. c.. June e.
Chairman Spangler and Republi-
can headquarters in Washington
are in a quandary regarding their
advancing fortunes in Maryland.
They are wondering just how far
they can go in 1914 in openly es-
pousing the continued fortunes of
Freshman Mayor Teddy Roosevelt
McKeldin and Congressman Daniel
Ellison. Congressman Glenn Beall
from Western Maryland presents
no problem, but the other two do.
McKeldin's victory in Baltimore
over Howard Jackson, following
on the heels of the two congress
sional successes in November, just
about filled the joy cup at COP
headquarters. McKeldin received
lush congratulatory telegram
from Spangler. But now word is
being bruited about that McKeldin,
playing his luck while it is hot,
may have some notions about run
ming for the Senate against the
almOst-certain Democratic nominee
Senator Millard Tydings.
Incidentally, it should be record
ed that the Tydings' Camp is much
concerned with this growing whis-
per. For McKeldin who almost
wrestled Baltimore away from
Governor O'COnor and did from

May Use Oil Stoves
HOusehOlders may use their Oil
cooking stoves this summer re-
gardless of the availability of
coal or wood-fired stoves, OPA has
announced. The present restric-
ton denying fuel oil rations for
domestic cooking and water heat
ing if adequate Standby equip
ment is available has been lifted
because of the shortage of all
fuels.
Pay Off Farm Debt
Increased revenue from crops
and livestock should be used to
pay off farm debt, said Secretary
of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard
recently. He emphasized that the
payment of outstanding obligations,
along with as large an investment
as possible in war bonds, is a
sound protection for the future.
Food For 3Day FurIough
A serviceman on leave or fur
Tough of at least 3 days will be
provided with complete applica-
tion form for obtaining rationed
food before he leaves camp. He
will give the application to the per-
son who provides his meals, who
will submit it to the local board
for food certificates within fifteen
days after the furlough ends.
Further Cheese Ratoning
To conserve supplies of milk, ra-
tioning will be extended to include
all cheeses and cheese products,
except cottage, bakers and pot
cheese, the War Food Administra-
ton and OPA have announced. All
hard cheeses and most cheese
foods have been rationed since
March 20. Early in June soft per-

torrid stuff if a COP ground swell
developed over the fourth term
issue. Spangler senses this too.
But at the same time, Spangler
recognizes, as do all Republicans,
that they owe something to Sena-
tor Tydings for his service to GER
tain COP principles throughout
the past six years. Even before
Roosevelt's unsuccessful purge,
Tydings has been regarded as
more or less in the Republican
camp.
Should McKeldin decide after
one year in the mayors office to
jump for big things, COP head
quarters would really be on the
spot. This much can be said,
namely, that if McKeldin sits tight
the COP will not advance any
strong candidate against Tydings
The other Republican, Dan Eli
son, doesn't present quite as tough
a problem as Tydings. After all,
the COP stalWarts will forgive FL
lison his avOwed labor following
and certain other things looked
upon with disfavor, because he did
ride along with the Ruml plan.
Note: Friends of Ex-Mayor How
ard Jackson are strongly urging
him to groom himself as the Demo
cratic opponent to Tydings. If he

JONATHAN HAGER
MONUMENT IS PLAN
OF LOCAL SOCIETY
Hope to Erect Suitable
Memorial Honoring
Founder

One of the activities which the
Washington County Historical So
ciety plans to take up in the fu-
ture is the erection of marker
which will clearly tell the passing
public that Captain Jonathan
Hager is buried in the graveyard
of Zion Reformed Church on North
Potomac street.
While there is a gravestone in
the cemetery in the rear of the
church, it is where only a compara-
lively few people see it and it is
not at all improbable that many
persons, even in Hagerstown. do
not know where the founder of
the town lies buried.
This monument is to the memory
of Captain Jonathan Hager. who
was born in 1919 and died NOvem-
ber s, IT'S. aged Sc years. He was
fatally injured while hauling lum-
Der for the erection of the church.
Other names on the monument are
that of Jonathan Hager, Jr., his
only son. born December. 1855 and
who died December, 1898 Che was
the first proprietary of Hagers-
town; Upton S. Lawrence and Eli
Zabeth Hager; Upton Hager Law
renee and Elizabeth Kirshner and
Mary Magdalena Orndorf This
marker was erected by the family.
Quite a long discussion followed
the suggestion made at a meeting
of the Society that a new and mod
ern marker be erected honOring
the founder. The Society feels
that the marker should be accord
ed a prominent position in the
community and among the loca-
tions suggested was a section of
the lawn facing on North Potomac
street between Zion Reformed
Church and the church parsonage.
Probably the least publicized
organization in this city is that Of
the Historical Society, founded
many years ago by residents of
this community interested in pre-
serving the early history of the
county. Numerous historical pro-
jects have been sponsored by this
group and their efforts to preserve
historical landmarks have been ex-
tremely successful.
