the North Carolina coast should
remain in port and other prelimi-
nary precautions should be taken.
Winds of so to go miles an hour
near the hurricane velocity of rs
miles an hour-were reported near
the center of the disturbance.
The storm was centered at 5
pm. approximately $40 miles al
most due east of Daytona Beach,
Fla, moving northward or slight
ly west of north about IA to 16
miles an hour, Chief Forecaster
Grady Norton, of the Storm Warn
ing Service at Miami said.
Paul Hess, Wilmington weather.
man, was inclined to minimize the
possibility of severe storm dam
age in this area. He predicted it
would be diminished in intensity by
the time it reached here.
At 4:30 pm. Bluethenthal Air
port received an Army weather re-
port predicting that the storm
would hit the Wilmington area be-
tween IL midnight and 5 am, and
that it would be intense. According
ly, all planes were grounded and
tied, and the order for mo flying"
was given.
At the Wrightsville Beach Coast
Guard station, Naval weather re-
ports also estimated that the storm
would break in this section be-
tween midnight and am. The
wind was said to be blowing be-
tween so and 60 miles per hour.
All Coast Guard boats were call
ed in to base, and the Coast Guard
officials commanded that men
from the Arnny's gunnery range at
South Rich's inlet leave the
beaches.
Considerable confusion resulted
among the civilian population, and
some few persons at the surround
ing beaches were repeatedly turn
ing their cars toward town.
However, Town Clerk R. L. Ben
sen declared that to him it appear
ed that "nobodXis leaving Wrights-
vile Beach but everybody is COM
ing in"
The advisory warning issued
from Miami follows:
'The tropical storm is central
near latitude % degrees, 80 min
utest north, longitude IS to rs de-
grees west, moving northWard or
slightly west of north about IA to
l6 miles and hour.
'Tt is attended by rather large
area of strong winds estimated at
so to 60 miles an hour near and
northeast of storm center. 1ndi-
cations are for further increase in
intensity with continued northward

ly north northeast and passing
near the North Carolina capes Sun

"small craft on the North Caro-
Ina coast should remain in port

that he doubted if any of the par
ticipants of the first superfortress
raid on Japan June IS, when four
bombers were lost, had been exc
cuted. No bombers were lost on
second superfortress raid July z.
"That's the kind OF propaganda
thrown out by Japan right along
to boost morale on the home
'front.' he said. Every time they
lose an island or a strip of ter
ritory they make new threats.
The Japanese Domei agency aft
err the first raid in an English
language wireless transmission for
American consumption reported
that "solemn burial services had
been held for U. S. airmen who
were killed in the crash of one
superfortress in northern Kyushu.
Yesterdays broadcast was of an
entirely different flavor, and the
announcer from Singapore assert
ed:
Any Allied airman who falls or
balls out over Japan will be exc
cuted. This is the order of t h e
day.
Federal monitors had difficulty
with the broadcast because of in
reference and the fact the an
nouncer spoke with an accent. But
here is the threatening paragraph
as they pieced it together:
"Some of the B-29s in crashing

plundering crew. (Men in other
meet with the same fate which
was melted out to raiders of Tokyo
some two years ago."
This was subject to two inter-
pretations-that the raiders have
been executed or await the same
fate.
In any event, it was recalled that
the punishment of the captives
from the Doolittle raid in April,
1912, was announced officially by
the Japanese government and the
information was broadcast on the
Tokyo radios regular news pro-
grams.
In general, the Singapore speech
to Allied forces in the Pacific was
a threat that those who attempt
what the announcer styled an "ab-
ortive raid aimed at nothing in
PARTICULAR would get a "one-way
ticket to hell"
The war department at Wash
ington had no comment to make on
the broadcast.

Navy in World War l was Presi-

isolationism and "straddlers," and
cause "all lovers of peace to re-

1.-THE platform the democrats
will adopt will ring so crystal clear
for winning the peace after victory
that no wayfaring man can mis-
take its meaning. The declaration
will be anathema to the isolation
lists and straddlers and will be the
sure promise of the day envisioned
centuries ago by the prince Of
peace"

a rough draft of the party platform,
resolutions subcommittee mem
bers said he might have some sug-
gestions on its content and brevity.
Hannegan aides announced that
Senator Tom Connally Of Texas,
senate foreign relations committee
chairman, had agreed to serve as
an advisor to the platform SUBJ
committee chairman, because of
his '1ong experience and expert
knowledge in the field of foreign
affairs"
flanagan put up at the Black
stone hotel where the manager
said reservations had been made
tomorrow for these six members
of the presidents official family:
Secretaries 1ckeS, an Illinois del
egate, Jones, Wickard and Per-
kins, Attorney General Biddle and
Post Master General Walker, the
latter two Pennsylvania delegates.
ut is a wide open fight said
Senator Claude Pepper of Florida,
commenting on the vice presiden-
tial situation.
There will be twelve to Is can
didates in the field" Pepper favors
Wallace.
Cup In The Air.
''The vice presidential question
is very much up in the air." OBJ
served Senator Carl Hatch of New
Mexico. Open-minded on the issue
himself, Hatch said he believed the
president would let it be known
that Wallace is his personal choice
but that the convention should do
its own choosing.
Barnes told neWSmen he came
here merely as an Illinois delegate
not to represent the president. Dan
iels said he came to see the show.
He arrived with his father, Jo-
sephus Daniels, North Carolina
member of the platform sub-com-
mittee and former cabinet officer
and ambassador.
The elder Daniels predicted the
"solid SOUTH would remain demo-
cratic in November. He discounted
current dissension among southern
democrats and foresaw a healing
of wounds before the election.
Daniels, 81, has been attending
conventions since 1896. He was Ma
Wy Secretary under President Will
son.
He described Governor j. Mel
vile Broughton, North Carolina S
candidate for the vice presidency,
as embodying the spirit of pro-
gressive liberalism.
Broughton headquarters were
opened in the Stevens Hotel by
Monroe Redden. North Carolina
Democratic chairman. He an
nounced former Governor Clyde
Hoey would nominate Broughton.
Headquarters for Senator Harry
Byrd of Virginia were opened at
the Sherman Hotel by j. G. Cram
er of the Byrd for president
committee. Wallace headquarters
will open there Monday in charge
of Harold Young.
Friends of Senators Alben w.
Barley of Kentucky and Harry
Truman of Missouri - mentioned
frequently for second place on the
ticket-were active and so were
those of Governor Robert S. Kerr
of Oklahoma. War mobilization di-
rector James F. Byrnes also was
regarded as still in the vice presi-
dental running.
While Senator Joseph Guffey of
Pennsylvania told reporters ''its
going to be Wallace" Senator
James M. Tunnel of Delaware
said he was open minded.

says this paper, which adds that
consumption has sbeen very heavy
during the war and no large sup

The paper quotes Clinton H.

the domestic needs, and to get this
lead higher price must be paid
than was received in pre-war

"If Europe were to employ only
its customary peace-time amount
of lead 1t would still have to inn

1t has been discovered that the

I'VE now have enough reserya-

this type of financing may again
be made possible without conflict
with SEC regulations.

Gas prOE,ers
You'd Void
State Rights

Proposed probe OF the natural gas
industry by the federal power ccn-
mission is in direct opposition to
the doctrine of states rights and Is
a matter in which the federal gov
eminent has no legitimate concern
or Jurisdiction
This is the declaration contained
in a resolution adopted at a recent
meeting of the board of directors of
the Independent Petroleum Asso-
citation of America, at Dallas, Texas
The resolution points out that the
facts which the commission is
seeking in pursuance of its probe
are already assembled, available
and in constant use by state and
federal agencies, or are facts over
which the commission has no juris-
diction, and can have no legitimate
concern and jurisdiction.
Move of the commission Is viewed
by many as another indication of
the unwavering determination of
federal bureaucrats to muscle In on
the petroleum industry.
