New Process Speeds
News Of Casualties
Duplicating Plan
Found Successful

FORT LEWIS, Wash.-tUP)-
Officials at this Army Service
Forces training center said to-
day they had received word
from the War Department that
new mechanical photostatlc
process designed to inform the
press of war casualties in less
time, and more economically
has been developed.
Upper parts of notification
telegram will be photostated
and printed in quantity for lists
released to the press. The name,
serial number and grade Of the
casualty with the name and adj
dress-but not relationShip-of
next Of kin will be shown.
The photostatic process prints
an impression directly on pre-
pared paper without the usual
negative required in ordinary
photography. Use of the equip
ment will greatly shorten the
time and labor involved by elm
mating the preparation of hun
dreds of stencils and subsequent
mimeographing.
All such releases will still
carry note to the editor stating
What the lists usually follow &C
tual notification by week OF
longer, and that the last Wal
Department communication, to
the next of kin is the final au-
thority.

the street and when he reached

In his possession when he died
was a dollar watch and S7,20.
FINGER WOMAN DEPORTED
Anna Sage, the woman at
whose home he sought refuge
while undergoing plastic surgery
never realized anything from her
end of the deal. Shortly there
after she was deported to Aus
tria by immigration officials and
was last heard of in Istanbul,
fleeing from the Nails.
Lurie contacted officials in
the Dillinger case and many of
the gangster'S former associates.
He revealed how thorough the
gang leader was in planning his
crimes.
The gang would case a bank
for a week, keeping exact hour
by-hour count of the number OF
people going in and coming out
Even more detail was employed
in planning the getaway.
Maps of the escape route were
drawn with such instructions as:
"drive north on SO, get up to 60
miles an hour; drop to 80, turn
right. Drive two and one-quarter
miles east at 85 miles an hour,
turn left into country road.
Lurie said Dillinger had a
habit Of saying, There goes
deuce and double-deuce again, I"
whenever luck turned against
him. He said a mind-reader once
told the gangster to beware Of
the number 2.
In the waning days Of his life
of crime the !dragnet closed
around him thus: On Jan. %,
1884, he had to shoot it out with
state officers at Tucson, Ariz.
On April %, 1894, he was near
ly caught at Merce, Wis, and
finally he was shot to death ON
July %.

Illness
Rotions
Approved

WASHINGTON. July II Up
The OPA today authorized H.
censed chiropractors to certify
extra food rations for medical
reasons.
The action was part of q gen.
eral simplification o frules gov
erning "illness rations," design
cd TO take care of liberated war
prisoners, Axis internees and
others needing additional food
to recover their health.
with increasing numbers OF
people suffering from dietary
deficiencies coming back to this
country, these steps are neces-
sary to make the rations more
readily available" OPA said.
Under the new regulations
OPA field offices may delegate
to local ration boards authority
TO issue rations for illnesses that
formerly required special handl-
ing and individual review by
medical committees.
The new plan permits the To-
cal boards to honor certificates
signed "by any licensed practi-
toner authorized by the laws of
the state in which he practises
to diagnose and treat the illness
for which certification is made. p"
Formerly only those practition-
erS eligible to register under
the Federal Narcotic law could
certify applications for extra
food. This ruled out such practi-
TONERS as chiropractors.

Ensign James F. Moore, who

narrowing experience because
of censorship is expected to
come home on leave after the
ship docks on the West coast for

The heavy cruiser, which was
part of the Third Fleet when II

the ordeal despite the loss OF
her entire bow.
Moore was on the bridge OF
the Pittsburgh in May when a

lin. He was in direct commune
cation with the ship while il

An obscure figure, Anna Sage,
put the finger on Dillinger short
~ before he fell to the street,
riddled by bullets, he said.
Anna Sage was an Austrian in
danger of deportation because
she was implicated in the opera
ton of a shady house in Chicago.
In an effort to make a deal with
FBI agents she offered to di-
vuIge Dillinger's whereabouts.
The woman went to a show
with the gangster and she sat
through the picture knowing
that when they left the FBI
would be waiting.

OPERATORS SEEK
AIRFlELD LEASE

NEW BERN, Oct. 10-Benny Bax-
ter and B. G. Hines have asked
the city and county for lease on
the Simmons-Nott airport across
Trent river, with permission to
erect hangers, service and repair
planes and operate modern, COM
mercial landing field there.
Expenditure of around $4,000 is
contemplated for permanent bull
dings, attorney L. A. Smith report
ed for his two clients, and an ad-
ditional $4,000 would be spent for
equipment. They are seeking a rent.
free lease for ten years, and are
willing to pay $3.50 per month for
the second ten years.
Termination of the government
lease for the airport is expected
shortly. During the war it was
used as an outlying field of the
Marine air station at Cherry Point.
Both Baxter and Hines have
planes and fly them. About ten
persons at Cherry Point are said
to have private planes, and these
would likely be brought to the
local commercial field. Under the
lease plan, instructions in flying
would be offered here, and plane
transportation would be provided.
Committees have been named by
both the city board of alderman
and the county board of commissi-
oners to consider the proposal.
