3rd Ave. USO Sponsors
Pleasure Cruise For
Our Service Men

Headed by Mr.. A. o. Waller, the
Third Avenue USO will sponsor a
pleasure cruise on Puget Sound
for our men in the service, Mon
day evening, Aug. 81.
The boat will go direct to Ia

Citizens and organizations are
urged to participate in this pleas
ure cruise by purchasing an extra

Three hundred men in the serv-

ride and the evening of pleasure.
"The budget of the Bird Avenue
USO is insufficient to underwrite
the transportation of the service
men and they appeal to our citi-
zens and organizations to pur-
chase the extra tickets needed for
our service men and share the
evening with Them" said USO Di-
rector A. o. Waller.

(Continued from Page D Workers and commuters were PM and the Daily Worker.
 The New York Post and the Bronx Home News were not even available at tie plants. Both sus- pended publication until settlement of the strike.
 The strike spread yesterday to three racing papers published in New York - The Morning Tele- graph, the Daily Racing Form and the Dailying Racing Guide.
 The racing papers are not mem- bers of the Publishers Association of New York. Publishers said the usual practice was to sign separate con- tracts with the union along the lines of the blanket contract signed by the II association members. P. M., also non-member of the asso- citation, signed a separate contract with the union before its old con- tract expired last Saturday mid- night.
 The PM contract incorporated the major issue between the Independ- ent Union and the Publishers Asso- citation: A demand that the em- ployes set aside 3 per cent of the payroll for an employees welfare fund.
 The WLB in its directive ordered the union to have the l,700 strikers return to work today or have rep resentatives appear in Washington tomorrow to show cause why the or- der was not obeyed.
 A majority of the newspapers publishing token editions said they were setting aside papers for mail subscribers for delivery to the post office at the end of the dispute.
 Advertising in the morning papers fell way of today.
 Union ofiicials said they would not consider ordering a return to work without a contract. They said they would hold out for collective bar. gaining settlement of the dispute, which the publishers want submit- ted to the newspaper commission Of of the VILE.
 A hearing on the disagreement had been scheduled for July 24 by the WLB before the strike started last Saturday.

 During 1943 and 1944 alone, War Prisoners Aid of the YM.C.A. fur nished American kriegies and allied soldiers held by Germans with l. 280 146 books; 1.745,254 sports ar- ticleS, and 244,232 musical items, the latter ranging from harmonicaS to tubas |. Some of the repatriy ated ex-prisoners said that certain ingenious Americans behind wire utilized the tubas to make stills. The "" also supplied huge quan- titles of hobby handicraft, art and theatrical materials.

His unique demand was filled by a neutral "" representa- tive |. .. Among trick items supplied included ankle bells-Sought by East African prisoners.
 While held at Stalag Luft 1, Lt. Col. Ross Greening, Tacoma, Wash, one of Jimmy Doolittle's original Tokyo raiders, decided on release he would publish pictorial history of the camp, using canvases paint ed within the prison compound. He was immediately swamped with or ders, rolling up 5000 subscriptions at $10 a copy.

 First reports said the plant, one of the main storage and refining units in the Japanese naval and air force supply system, was com pletely gutted.

 This was the box-score of obliter- ation for the campaign to date:

 Photographic evidence of the ha- voc wrought in four other Japanese cities, in addition to the Maruzen area. was still being compiled.
 But official evidence on hand showed that the 75,000 tons of fire and demolition bombs exploded on the 23 cities had gutted at least IT square miles of Japan's built-up in- dustrial area. The ruined cities once boasted a combined population of about 100000 persons. equal to that of Ohio, Arkansas, Illinois and Oregon, and representing one-fourth of the Japanese homeland's 72,0o0,- 900 inhabitants.

claimed Coscia shouted, T am go- ing to shoot you" .at Cyr, while at the same time claiming that Cyr was not there. Atty. Feeley de- clared, "Ths man is not responsi- ble for that crime"
 "Timid Soul"
 Atty. Mascolo then began his argu- ment, picturing Coscia as mild hammered "timid soul," threatened and abused, and living in constant fear of his brother -in-law, Cyr.
 At the same time Atty. Mascolo vigorously attacked police methods and the department, referring to them as "flatfoots," and what he termed "Ellery Queens" in the states attorneys office, and the various interpreters.
 He told the jury to consider the different situation between defense attorney and a prosecutor. The lat ter, he stated, has all means and re- sources at his disposal, while, as in the case of Coscia, they kept him locked up and incommunicado, and prevented him from seeing anyone to protect him in any way.
 He excoriated the police officers who testified from memory, declar- ing that they came straight from the comparing notes in the States attorneys office. "The police are fortunate" Attorney Mascolo de- clafed, that people go in and tell them what they do, or they would never be able to protect us from crime because of the lax way of do- ing things in that department"
 Mascolo referred to the amateur photographer in the police depart ment, and charged the States at- torney with presenting only those photographs which would not show the bruises on his client allegedly inflicted by the deceased.
 He then turned his wrath on the interpreters. who he charged with making "a mess of things" and with confusing his client. He referred particularly to one interpreters translation of Coscia's statement that he committed a homicide to that he committed a murder. Mascolo declared Coscia was a law abiding citizen of the commun- ity for many years, and described Cyr as a bully, big fellow who took advantage of mild timid soul, as a man of meanness of heart and soul.
 Mascolo was scheduled to resume his argument after the noon recess.
 Photographer Gunther Mathes, defense witness and Photographer Henry Gebhardt. state witness, took the witness stand yesterday after noon as final rebuttai witnesses.
 Mathes was presented negatives of pictures taken of Coscia follow ing the staying. and he said that If there were marks on Coscia's face the particular photograph made was not the right kind to produce them.
 Fitzgerald asked him if 1t wasn't true that the picture was SO well de- lined that 1t was almost possible to count the hairs on coscia's face. Mathes later testified a beard would show on any negative, but that swelling could not be reproduced in a photograph unless the swelling was very severe.
 0ebhardt testified any marks on Coscias face would have been shown in the photograph. He testi- filed he tok most of the photographs which were entered as state exhibits in the trial.

tack.
 Sister Chytilova said she knew Heydrich died seven days after the attack, but that 1t was not the wounds that killed him but bad heart.
 Lastovka said the attack was made about 10:30 a. m. on the bright, hot May 27, 1942. It was on the outskirts of Prague at a rlace called Vychovatelna, where the streets form letter Y.
 Heydrich,s car was making the regular morning trip toward his country home, and Lastovka saw it as his trolley moved toward 1t. He said Heydrich sat alone in the rear of the black Mercedes sedan.
 T didn't see the men jump from behind the trees near Heydrich's car," the motorman said, but I heard shots and then an explosion. I saw Heydrich leap up and shiver. Next I saw man running up the tracks ahead of me. He ran to a house and seized hidden bicycle"
 A policeman appeared and order ed Lastovka to move the trolley. The motorman saw Heydrich signal to a truck, climb aboard it, and start for the nearby Buloka hos pital.
 Sister Chytilova, who was in the Bulowka hospital, said Heydrich had only one wound from the ex- ploSion. It was in his back over his kidneys, and was no larger than a bottle cap.
 The sister said that when a blood transmission was ordered, Heydricb refused to take blood from anyone except "a German who is also nobelman and an official" A Gess tapo man was found acceptable and gave the blood.
 Heydrich insisted on the plain. est kind of bed as "a military man.s
 The sister said he progressed very well for six days. On the seventh German doctors were surn- moned to him at a. m. At 8 a. m, the hospital attaches learned that he was dead of the heart disease.
 The reign of terror began. Las- toyxa and many others were ques- toned for hours. The Nazis block ed off whole sections of the city and searched them room by room.
 Finally they issued their 24-hour ultimatum. The patriots died be- fore 1t expired. but the slaughter was only beginning.
