Missing Girl
Still Sought

Scituate, Mass, June l4.-CUP)-
Another supposed clue in the four
day search for 10-year old Frances
McGrath was eliminated early to-
day after state police interviewed a
war worker who had reported see
ing girl of her description.
Police who questioned Grant Jou-
bert at his bench in Mansfield
war plant said his description of
the child was way off" and seemed
to indicate a much older girl. He
earlier reported that girl, appar-
emily dazed, approached him at a
Taunton gasoline station last night
and asked what day 1t was.
When he answered Tuesday, she
replied. "Oh, I thought 1t was
Thursday"
Meanwhile, in Scituate, Navy sur
face craft and airplanes were sum-
moned to patrol the south shore
area in search of the girl, daughter
Of a former Boston City councillor
who last was seen munching an ice
cream cone at bowling alley here
Saturday night.
Grief-stricken Mrs. McGrath, near
exhaustion from u sleepless hours,
issued an appeal asking the public
to please help me find my little
girl"

Eisenhower Announcement
Upsets German Strategists

of the continent. This suggested
that new assaults may be made
along Norway, the Low countries,
the French Mediterranean coast or
the Balkans.
Just where, and with what forces,
the Allies will strike next is. of
course, one Of the best guarded Sc
crets in the world. They have a
choice of beachheads extending from
Spain to Norway on the Atlantic and
from Turkey to Spain on the Med
iterTanean.
However, q likely place for the
next breach of the Atlantic wall is
believed to be somewhere in Bel
GUM or Holland north of the Sieg-
fried line, which could again be
used for defensive purposes, and
r,ucl1 closer to Germany proper.
In the Mediterranean theater, the
most logical spot for a new landing
would be in Genoa-Nice area. Such
an attack, which could Jump off
from Sicily and Corsica, could stop
the badly-mauled and retreating
German 14th and 10th. armies in
northern Italy from spreading out
into France.

Dwight D. Eisenhower's announced
intent to blast other openings" In
Hitler's European fortress was hailed
today as a masterful stroke in keep
ing German strategists off balance
In deciding how much of their avail

growing Allied beachhead in Nor
mandy.
Military experts here said Ger
man uncertainty about Allied plans,
and the resultant reluctance to
commit all their forces to the Nor
mandy battle, already has had a
salutary effect on the initial breach
Of the Atlantic wall. Eisenhower's
promise that other breaches are
''yet to come" will add to the Nazi
uncertainty.

Promotions
In Police
Dept. Tocay

Promotions and appointment OF
regulars are in order for members
of the local police force at today'S
meeting of the city's police board,
1t was revealed this morning.
Sgt. Walter Ahearn will be ad-
vanced to the rank of lieutenant
while Patrolmen Patrick Hughes and
Ralph Baril are to be made SER
geants at today's meeting. In addi-
ton two supernumeraries, Joseph
Flaherty and Philip Tata are to be
made regular patrolmen.
1t did not seem likely that the
board would today consider the adj
vancement in rank Of Sgt. James
Wagner as reported elsewhere while
reports stated that change of sched-
ules and shifting Of beats would be
considered at today's meeting.
Sgt. Ahearn was appointed to the
local force in 1919 and was made a
sergeant in July 1886. A once prom
inent athlete he is one of the best
known men on the force. Patrick
Hughes was appointed a regular Nov.
81, 1918 and is a widely popular pa
trolman who has of late been doing
traffic duty on the corner of Leav-
enworth and West Main streets.
Ralph Baril was appointed as reg
ular Nov. Is, 1888 and is well known
among Franco American circles.
1t has not been disclosed what de-
cision will be handed down by the
board today in the matter of the
suspension of veteran policeman AL
fred Overton who will appear before
the board members today in answer
to charges unbecoming member
of the department. This is the sec
ond similar infraction of depart
mental rules by the patrolman. APP
pointed member of the force in
1919 he is subject to retirement on
the basis of having served Is years.
Just what the proposed schedule
changes are 1t was not revealed to-
day but 1t Is believed that a sys-
tenn of superior officers will be es-
tablished whereby the brunt of mi
nor complaints and administrative
responsibilities will be channeled
through captains and lieutenants
before being directed to more SUI
perior officers.

FDR Favors
Trial DeIov

Washington, June IA - (U.P0 -
President Roosevelt announced to-
day that despite objections of the
Secretaries of War and Navy, he
has signed legislation extending to
December 7, the time in which trial
proceedings may be instituted
against persons accused of respon-
sibility for the Pearl Harbor dis
aSter.
Technically. the measure extends
for six months beyond June the
date on which the statute of limita-
tons would bar institution of the
proceedings. That statute originally
ran out on December Z, 1913, two
years after the actual date of the
attack, but 1t was extended by Con-
gress until June z
The measure was designed prim-
arily to permit court martial pro-
ceedings against Major General
Walter G. Short and Rear Admiral
Husband E. Kimmel who were res
pectively the Army and Navy COM
manders at Hawaii at the time Of
the attack. Both men have signed
waivers which the War and Navy
Departments contend would permit
their trial at any time.
The extension also would permit
institution of proceedings against
any other persons deemed respon-
Sible for the success of the attack.
Mr.. Roosevelt signed the resolu-
ton last night. In statement is
sued today, he said:

London, June IA. - CUP - The
appointment of two violent pro-
Nazis to the Vichy cabinet was ex-
pected today to mark the beginning
of a reign of terror" throughout
France in a desperate effort by
Collaborationists to stamp out up
risings of the French underground
armies.
The measures contemplated by
Vichy to combat widespread resist
ance were indicated In a warning to
all Frenchmen by Joseph Darnand,
one of the most oppressive authori-
ties in France that mo disobedience
whatever will be tolerated"
Darnand, former secretary Tor
maintenance of order and head OF
the French militia, issued the ulti-
matum over Paris radio shortly after
the announcement of his appoint
ment as secretary of state in the
ministry of interior.
The other militant collaboration
iSt elevated to secretary of state In
the Vichy government was Marcel
Deaf, notorious Fascist and secretary
for labor and national coordination
Both he and Darnand are known
to be prepared to go to any violent
lengths to keep France submissively
under German rule. Their back
ground together with Darnand's
warning were interpreted by one
French source here as forecaSting
the beginning of a reign Of terror"

Loved Son
BY JOSEPH NOLAN

(Un1te0 FreSS Stan correspondent
Pittsfield, Mass, June 14-(UP)-
The affection which Atty. John F..
Noxon Jr had for the imbecile in
FAINT son he is accused of electrocut-
ing was described in superior court
today by a former family servant
who was called as a state witness
at the socialite lawyers murder
trial.
Frank Sanpiovanni. WHO was en-
ployed by the family as a handy
man for four years until May 1913,
told Judge Abraham E. Pinanski
and jury that the first thing
Noxon did when be arrived home
from his law Office each day was
to go upstairs to see the baby. Dur
ing meals, Sanpiovanni testified,
Noxon frequently asked his wife
about the baby's health.
The metal tray on which baby
Lawrence NoXon was lying when he
received the fatal shock last Sept.
%, was Christmas present to the
family and had been used at tea
and cocktail parties, Sanpiovanni
said.
Purposely avoiding glances of the
47-year-old defendant and his wife
Margaret, Sanpiovanni described
the Noxons' $45, 200 suburban home
as "a very nice place to work"
He said Noxon himself enjoyed
listening to the radio and occa-
sionally would sit on the floor and
tinker with 1t. The witness brought
smile to Noxon's lips as he told
about certain mechanical devices"
which the defendants 15-year- old
son John III had built
One of these devices, he said,
enabled the boy to turn of his
radio without getting out of bed
while another would pull up a
blanket over the bed.

Vacations Scheduled
For Brass Employees
Signal Corps Radiotelephoto from NEA Telephoto)

Vacation schedules for employees
of the American Brass Co., have
been established by directive
handed down by the regional War
Labor Board in Boston. The direc-
tive which will not be appealed by
the management gives almost blan-
ket approval to all requests of the
@. I. o. Mine, Mill & Smelter Work
er's union bargaining agent for the
employees.
Under the proposed vacation pro-
gram all employees with five or more
years service will receive the equiv
alent of two weeks vacation with
pay to be based on AZ times straight
time average hourly earnings. Pre-
viously the union had requested
such a basis for all employees with
three years or more Of service. In
addition all employees with at least
three months service beginning as
of May LIST will receive one week va
cation with pay to be based on two
per cent of their total earnings. The
program Is to go into effect at all
American Brass plants beginning
July /.
These pay schedules do not in
clude night shift bonuses or over
time earnings but do include pro-
duction bonus pay.
It was stated today by Clark S.
Judd president Of the company that
the second week vacation would not
be given as to actual days off but
would include only the pay equival-
ent. This is as result of the contin-
ued heavy production demands be-
ing stressed by the War Production
Board. The company is one of the
leaders in the war material field.
John j. Driscoll executive secre-
tary of the G. I. o. today stated
that he would request that all en-
ployes entitled to the second weeks
