LONDON, Mar. 14.-Documents
found on captured Chetniks indicate
that Gen. Draja Mihailovich's forces
have concluded an agreement with
Bulgaria "for cooperation against

The communique, heard by Reu-

garian and Chetnik forces in Mace
donia and declared that they showed
that the alleged agreement was to
continue even after the war"
German troops attempting to
break through to liberated territory
from the direction of Dvor were
hurled back toward Kostanjevica
and all enemy attacks OF Novo
Mesto were repelled, the COM
munique said 1t stated a detach-
ment of Chetniks was wiped out in
Eastern Bosnia, and Bulgarian
troops and Chetniks were being
mopped up in Macedonia.

line might be worked out before.
July /.
|, Senator Bilbo, however. pointed
out that Congress had not up I'd
now modified or repealed the pro-
visions OF the law. that alley dwell
ings must go by July /, 1914. There
fore, he said, unless changes are
made in the law before July /, there
will be nothing left for the police
and Commissioners to do but to
enforce the law"
Responding to 4 suggestion from
Senator Burton that there are not
sufficient places in Washington in
which to rehouse the thousands
living in alley dwellings, Senator
Bilbo declared, There are plenty
OF places for them to go. The
farmers are begging for labor. There
is not an occupant of alley dwellings
who cannot find a place to live.
Personally, am not sympathetic
to amending or modifying the law.
My reactions are that the slums are
hotbeds of vice and disease, which
cause increased governmental ex-
penses and serve to load up the
hospitals. Real estate people have
been reaping fortune out of the
slum dwellings, for they don't repair
them. but merely collect the rents.
Here is Mrs. Roosevelt suggest
ing that We bring in women from
Jamaica to work in this country
as domestics," he declared. Il don't
think We need them. A lot of
Washington housewives, I should
think, would be glad to put some
Of our alley dweners in their base
ments in order to get help.
Instead of going to Jamaica for
help, we have got 10000 Negroes
in Washington that we can turn
over for employment in agriculture. y
Mrs. Hoffman Shocked
Mrs. Helen Duey Hoffman, execu-
tive secretary of the Washington
Housing Association. said she was
shocked" by Senator Bilbos state
ment. If all alley dwellings here
were closed by July !, she said, No
gro families would have to live in
tents on the Mall" because they are
essential to operation of service

The House Civil Service Investi-
eating Committee, it was learned
today, is considering an inquiry to
determine whether the WASP
CWomen's Airforce Service Pilots
program should be continued while
thousands of experienced men pilots
are looking for jobs.
The WASPS are civilian Govern
ment employees assigned to the
Army Air Forces for such duties as
ferrying new planes, towing targets,
tracking flying so ground forces
can practice aiming guns and
searchlights) courier work and ex-
perimental flying. They are paid
$3.50 month during the month
training course and $3.50 a month
while in service Approximately
600 are in service and 400 in train
ing.
Expanded a Year Ago.
The organization grew out of the
Women's Auxiliary Ferrying Squad
ron, formed in 1912 under Mrs.
Nancy Harkness Love with %
women pilots, each of whom had
more than 500 hours flying time.
A year ago the Army began train

In addition to men released under
the training program, there are
around $4,000 pilots in the Civil Air
Patrol and probably 10000 of those
could qualify for the work being
done by the WASP
Criticism Of WASP training has
been based on the cost of the pro-
gram and the alleged lack Of need
for more pilots, rather than on the
ability of the feminine flyers to do
the job.
All WASP are trained at Sweet
water, Texs by Aviation Enterprises,
Ltd, which receives $3.50 for each
girl student.

CHICAGO, Mar. 14-Police, in
vestigating the trunk murder of
James de Angelo, AZ, today searched
for his close friend, Onofrio Vitale
reported missing one day after De
Angeles disappearance, and who,
police theorized might have met
a similar fate.
The battered and bound body of
De Angelo, former tavern oper-
ator, was found Saturday in the
trunk Of his widows automobile on
busy North Side street. He was
last seen February "a, while Vitale
cheese maker. has not been in
touch with his family since Febru-
ary 25. Police said they had not
| determined whether the two men
were associated in business deals.
Police in suburban Calumet CITY
said Vitale's daughter Ann. 90 had
related that an unidentified person
had telephoned the Vitale home the
night of February IS and said:
Your father and his friend are
locked up, and you'll have to get a
bondsman" Her fathers disap-
pearance, however, was not reported
until March 4, she said, adding: Il
just figured he'd come home"
Chief of Detectives John L. Sui
livan said there might be a connec-
ton between De Angeles trunk mur-
der and the slayings of Thomas
Oneglia December 6 and Sam Ger
vase March 2. The former, Mr.. Sui
Ivan said, was stockholder in the
cheese company for which Vitale
worked.
1t. Kyran Phelan said the murder
OF De Angelo was one of the most
brutal he had investigated in 20
years of police work. He said it
was apparent that De Angelo had
been tortured each day for several
days.
This may have been in revenge
or in an effort to make him talk. ;"
