being in torments, and seeth Abra-
ham afar of, and Lazarus in his
bosom.
And he cried and said, Father
Abraham, have mercy on me, and
send Lazarus, that he may dip the
tip Of his finger in water. and cool
my tongue; for I am tormented in
this flame.
But Abraham said. Son, remember
that thou in thy lifetime receivedst
thy good things, and likewise Lag
arus evil things: but now he is
comforted and thou are tormented.
And beside all this, between us and
you there Is q great gulf fixed: 80
that they which would pass from
hence to you cannot: neither can
they pass to us, that would come
from thence.
Then he said, I pray thee there
fore. Father, that thou wouldest
send him to my fathers house:
For I have five brethren: that he
may testify unto them, lest they
also come into this place Of tor
ment.
Abraham saith unto him, They
have Moses and the prophets; let
them hear them.
And he said, Nay, Father Abra-
ham: but if one went unto them
from the dead, they will repent.
And he said unto him, II they
hear not Moses and the prophets,
neither will they be persuaded,
though one rose from the dead.

Marines in JungIes
OF Pacific Yearninq
To Take Real Town
By TECH. SERGT. MURREY
MARDER,

U. s. Marine Corps Combat Correspondent.
SOMEWHERE IN THE SOUTH
PACIFIC tBy Mail to NA.N.A9.-
One of these days in the South
Pacific were going to capture
town.
Maybe not a large town-just
something with a few blocks of
real houses, paved or even cobbled
streets, and one or two buildings
like a post Office or village store.
Starting with the August 7. 1912,
landing on Tulagi and Guadalcanal,
the marines have been hoping that
some day, somewhere, they would
occupy an area that resembled
civilization. A small town, perhaps
with a village square and one or
two two-story houses. Something
you could point to with a little
pride and say, Look, we've taken
back lot of swamp and jungle,
but here, look, real town." and it
would be akin in small way to
Podunk or Pleasantville.
In a year and one-half of Jungle
fighting, the marines have been
looking toward that day, which
dwindles as island after island falls
away from japanese control.
Even Roads Are Missing.
"Huts. darned thatched huts,"
you hear the men says. land what
the maps call road turns out to
be an overgrown trail you couldn't
coax a COW through"
There was a handful of houses on
tiny Tulagi, which is just spiny
cliff rising from the water, and a
government building and a small
nine-hole golf course. But by the
time the marines cleaned out the
Japs with grenades and TINT there
was not much left. What little re-
manned was gutted by explosives or
torn up by shrapnel. The golf
course looked as if giant coyotes had
burrowed through it.
Florida Island, Guadalcanal, the
Russell Islands, the New Georgia
group, Vella Lavella, the Treasury
Islands anl portion of Bougainville
all came under Allied control-and
still no town.
I'VE read about the troops In
Africa and Italy," said one town

take real honest-to-G God towns, with
streets and electric lights and water
systems and brick buildings and
bars and gardens and people What

McCarran Would Lift Ban
On Disti|Iers Temporarily

By the Associated Press
Chairman McCarran of a Sem
ate committee investigating the
liquor shortage said last night he
favored a temporary resumption of
beverage alcohol production.
Bringing new stocks on to a de-
pleted market, Senator McCarran
said, would put a stop to black mar
kets" and force out boarded" stocks
of whisky.
Although the War Production
Board recently announced that
there was little chance that distil-
leries could turn from industrial to
beverage alcohol production, the
Nevadan said he believed the pros
poets "are pretty good"
Senator McCarran emphasized he
spoke for himself, but indicated that
the committee might make such a
recommendation. Another member,
Senator Ferguson. Republican, of
Michigan, previously had advocated
permitting small-scale production Of

tary police turned him over to Sergt.

tive Bureau.
Under questioning, Corpl. Linthi-
cum explained, Skeen said he was
living in the hotel with a woman he
said he married February % in
Rockville. He further admitted, ac-
cording to Corpl. Linthicum, that he
had a wife in California.
Sergt Blick then called Corpl

A War Labor Board panel yes

the American Federation of Mu-

making without receiving royalties
The board had assumed juris-
diction in the 18-month-old dispute
between the federation and seven

spite union contention that its
members are not on strike, that no
labor controversy exists and that
the board had no jurisdiction.
In a lengthy report on the con-
troversy, Arthur S. Meyer, public
member, and Gilbert E. Fuller, in
dustry member, concurred in a
recommendation that the board
exercise its power to terminate
the strike to the end that the con-

Max Zaritsky, labor member, filed
a dissenting opinion.
War Interference Charged.
James c. Petrillo, head of the
union, has demanded that employ
ers pay fee to union employ
ment fund for each record and
transcription made, contending that
their manufacture creates unem-

The Decca Co. and a number of
transcription firms entered into
such an agreement with the union,
but Columbia, Victor and the Ma
