 It was Vegesberg's duty. said the coroner, to distribute the fire-fght- ing equipment. Also, the coroner noted, the personnel was not trained .a fire fighting and that water wagons were used mainly to wet the grounds or water the animals. The size of the hose and nozzleS made these wagons absolutely useless as fire preventative" he said, as no connections could be made to city hydrantS.
 The coroner also was critical of the chute leading from the animal cage in the main tent to the animal quarters outside the big top. These chutes, he said extended through two of the eight main exits. Stair ways were erected over them SO patrons could reach their seats. When the fire broke out and panic reigned, many spectators were jam med against the chutes in the mad rush to get out, and died. Burned bodies of Q large number of persons were found in piles, and a lesser number of bodies were piled Up near the northeast stairs" his finding reported.
 5000 In Tent
 Healy said between 5000 and T. 900 persons were in the main tent when the fire broke out and most of them were women and children. An usher saw the flames jump the space between the side wall and the tent top, and screamed fire" Smith as general manager could not help but have personal knowledge of the conditions Aylesworth deliberately de. serted his post of duty to so to ans other city, leaving no one in charge in his absence. Vesteeg utterly failed in his duty to distribute and place in position the fire extinguish. era in his charge, which, undoubted. ly, If they had been available, could have stopped this fire at its origin. Blanchard had under his di- rection the trucks and wagons so placed around the tent as to imperil the lives of people using the exits, the coroner summarized.
 Galley and Clark, the only ones of the seven to testify aL the coroner's hearing, both left their places under the bleachers when t was their duty to remain there ana watch for fires that might occur" l Hcaly said.

3. British forces will release an equal number Of ELIAS prisoners.
 {. All British civilians captured will be released irrespective of the identity of their captors, the place where they were captured or their present location.
 5. Any failure on the part ot ELIAS forces to observe the terms of the agreement or any attack in any part of Greece on any British Dominion or Indian troops and service personnel, or any Greek na- tional forces, police or gendarmerie shall be regarded as a breach Of the truce
 Jean Zevgos. former minister of agriculture. MT. Partsalides and ELIAS major Macridis and Athinel- lis signed the truce on behalf of EAM-ELAS after two days of rego- tiationS with Scoble,
 Immediately after the terms of the truce were disclosed, Damas- kinos sent a message Of protest to the ELIAS representatives against their refusal to release Greek civil lans as well as service personnel taken prisoners during the five and half weeks of hostilities.
 He said he was profoundly shocked" to learn that the ELIAS re- fused to release innocent men and women taken as hostages in many thousanoB.'
 Tine civil war broke out Decem- Der when Greek government police fired on ELIAS synpathizers demon- Stfating against the government or- der for the surrender Of the arms with which they helped to drive the Germans out of Greece.
 British forces intervened on the side of the government in an ef- fort to help restore law and order. An ELIAS army of 25,000 at one time captured all but about a square mile Of Athens, but the arrival of British endorsements enabled Scobie to clear a radius of 50 miles from Athens.

Indo-Chino Fight Seen
Continued from Page D

NCOpClIlueu lTOIn Thbc U Saigon, 60 miles to the southwest, before the war was French Indo- China's first seaport and a naval base.
 Naval observers Speculated that Japanese fleet units may have sought refuge for repairs or re- grouping at Camranh Bay or Saigon after their disastrous defeat in the second battle of the Philippines last Oct. 22-27, when 24 Japanese war ships were sunk, B probably sunk and q damaged
 Japan was known to have several battleships and aircraft carriers, as well as numerous cruisers and de- stroyers, in fighting condition and 1t long has been thought that an American landing on Luzon would force the reluctant Japanese fleet into action again.
 Though the communique did not specify that Halsey's fleet was car rying out the attack, the fact that Nimitz released the news confirmed that 1t was the Third fleet with its huge carrier force under Vice Admiral John Mccain capable of putting 1000 planes into the air si- multaneously.
 Had Vice Admiral Thomas 0. Kim kaid's Seventh Fleet been involved, 1t was pointed out, the attack would have been announced by Gen. Doug las Macarthur, under whose com- mand iKnkaid operates, The Sev- enth fleet at last reports was off western Luzon and in the Lingayen Gulf protecting and reinforcing MacArthur's invasion beachhead. Saigon lies STA miles southwest of Manila.
 Halsey's daring thrust to French Indo-China by-passed the Japanese Naval base at Hong Kong and car- ried to within TOO miles northeast of Singapore, keystone of Japanese defenses in Southeast Asia, which was attacked byb American BPS Superfortresses yesterday.
 The indications were that Amer ican search planes or submarines noted Japanese activity in Indc- China waters and flashed Q message to the Third fleet, enabling 1t 70 pounce on the enemy forces cven ns they pulled out of Indo-China ports.
 The attack climaxed other strikes by the Third fleet in the first eight days Of this year at Japanese install lations from the Dyukyu islands off the southern tip Of Japan proper, through Formosa to Luzon in which hundrdes Of enemy ships and planes were wrecked.
 Still further bad news was in prospect for the Japanese, Vice Admiral Richmond K. Turner, corn- mander of American AmphiniCus forces in the Pacific, revealed at a press conference at Pacific Fleet headquarters.
 He asserted that Larger and larger ladnings are ahead--ever in the Japanese homeland" but warned that greater American loss- es must be expected aS arInadaa strike closer to the heart of Japan
 There aren't so many placei where they ain't," he said, "and no doubt losses in the future VII be heavier. The Japanese have air. power and troops in greater num- bers as we approach their home land."

 men who leave their jobs or those who refuse to go into essential work
 Undersecretary of War Robert B.. Paterson and UnderCecretary of Navy Ralph A. Dard told the com" mittee earlier this week that neither the Army nor tho Navy had jobs for special service units as proposed in Mays bill. but said they would co" operate If congress 50 ordered.
 There wos no doubt that the gov. ernment would be far happier If all nen in the IS to 45 year brackets, including 4-Fs would voluntarily get into war work so that the draft provisions of the bill would not have to be invoked.
 Col. Fra,lcjS V. Kecsling, Jr,, Sel- ective Service legislative officer, said The work os the special service units should be made go unattractive' and "iligsgreeable" that no one would want to be in them.
 Rep. Thomas Martin. Ia., also opposed the idea of special Army and Navy work battallcns but he challenged the coIHtitutionaltty of any legislation which could direct a person 70 50 to work in a specific plant operated privately for profit.
 Rep. John ,. SparkSnan, D., Ala, said many people believed that Nays bill applied only Go 4-F's when actually 1t covered some l8.0OO, ,00') men in the 10 to 46 year category.
 I'm willing to go along on iegiS' latiCn taking 4.FS but think we either ought to have narrower bill tnau thi8 or have full national serv- ice," ne said. If we're going to take men lip to 46, I don't see why we don't take them up to 05."
 Sparkman also favored specific language releasing hardship cases, providing benefits of the Soldiers and Sailors Relief act and allowing tineFnnl0Vnenk cOf1nuef16akiOfl.

LINT FROM A BLUE SERGE
 SUIT
 Newspapermen were shop-talking about the missing comma in tele- gram sent this broadcaster, which embarrassed him and Mir. Justice Byrnes Mir. I. Hoffman (the New York branch of the Hollywood Re- porter) recalled the most costly comma in U s. history Many years ago a tariff bill listed articles that were to be admitted free. One item was "ali foreign fruit-plants" But a careless clerk replaced the hyphen with comma It caused oranges, lemons, bananas, grapes and other imported fruits to be admitted to the U. s. free of duty {. It cost the Government an estimated million dollars plus .. No newspaperman or newspaper Is safe from blunder- making . America's most accurate newspaper, perhaps, was The N. Y. World That newspaper once checked it's mistakes in one year More than 1000 errorsl
 A concrete example of journalistic jiu-jitsu (being thrown for the count) was the story two days ago which said that Dick Merrill, the famed transatlantic flyer, had brok- en another record-flying from Seattle to Washington in six hours and three minutes The story was wired from the Capital by one of the news services |. Last night we grabbed Dicks paw and shook 1t hard as we congratulated him .. T don't know what it's about he said. T just came in from Africa. How could such story that never happened get started?'
 The terrible crash Of the old China Clipper at Trinidad reminded us of tie flighcWe made from Natal to the U. s. The Boeing circled over Port of Spain for more than an hour-waiting we learned for the man in charge of the fled lights to wake up--and turn them on ., The law there at the time, it ap- pears, prohibited plane landings at night When the China Clipper crashed it was the first time Trini- dad permitted planes to lahG at night.

time since May 18, 1910, except for
mechanical ietnrurptions, the tick
er had been SO late. Declines of l

ed in most cases at the close as
the page slowed in the last quarter
hour.
In addition to the feeling that the
collapse Of the Nazis might be
nearer than expected, with con-
sequent transitional troubles affect
ing most industries, bearishness
was inspired by. report that the
Federal Reserve Board was con-
sidering proposals to eliminate all
margin dealings and advocate a
substantial increse in capital gains
taxes on securities and real estate.
Another factor was the belief the
lengthy upswing to highs for near
ly years called for substantial
technical correction.
