Let's go jump off a roof? Not l, my friend, not I! My life is Gods and He alone may take it. He put me here to know Him, love Him, serve Him; and I will serve by liv- ing on and bearing confidently what ever crosses He may send. Thou shalt not Kill" our God has said, and the Catholic church has ever taught that the same Christian who takes his life breaks Gods own law and so commits damning sin.
 Suivide! It's all about us, yet midst the troubles of this age of ours, the lf-destroying Catholic is a rarity. Proof of this is most con- clusively given in a study of world suicides by Louis I. Dublin and

Veterans Welcome
To Live in Australia,
Governor Says Here

American soldiers and sailors who
want to make their home in Aus
tralia can count on being welcome
in New South Wales as long as Lord
Wakehurst Is its governor.
The governor, who was guest of
honor at a reception given last night
by DIR. Paul F. Douglass, president
of American University, brought
proof of the gratefulness of his
people to the American armed forces.
Before more than 100 social
science teachers from 35 States at
tending the university's institute
on the position of the United States
In world affairs, Lord Wakehurst
showed colored motion pictured of
the tremendous reception given the
American armed forces when they
landed in Sydney.
Lord Wakehurst himself photo
graphed the scene of thousands lin
ing the streets and of hundreds
more throwing confetti as the
American flag went by.
Americans also could contribute
a great deal as civilians after the
war" he said.
The war, he explained. made Aus
tralia induStrialiZe.
She is turning out the most cheap
ly produced steel in the world, he
reported. Her shipyards are supply
ing thousands upon thousands" Of
small craft for American as well
as Australian forces, he added.
His motion pictures, shown for the
first time to an American audience,
included scenes of oil refineries,
established after the Japanese cut
off Australia's supply, and of the new
ammunition industry.
Lord Wakehurst acknowledged the
test Of whether Australian industry
can produce economically in peace
time is yet to come, but he en-
phasized Australia no longer can be
dismissed as an agricultural nation.
The Governor was introduced by
Sir Frederick Eggleston, Australian
minister to the United States. Lord
Wakehurst ends his visit in the
United States today. He will fly
home by way of England.

Chinese Advance II Mile.
In Drive for Indo-China
By the Associated Press.

CHUNGKING, July 7.-Chinese
troops who recaptured Pingsiang
have advanced IL miles beyond to
the French Indo-China frontier
reaching Chennankwan, South
Guard Pass, where fighting is now
raging, the Chinese high command
said today.
Recapture of Pingsiang, lost a
week ego, was announced earlier.
The advance to South Guard Pass
which connects China with Indo-
China, meant that the gap in the
broken Japanese transcontinental
corridor was stretched from the
Indo-China border to beyond Liu-
chow, about $50 miles.
The Chinese also announced that
Chinese troops yesterday captured
the village of Tungchaunchen, Il
miles west of Chungtu, and were
advancing on Chungtu, 80 miles
northeast of Liuchow on the
Liuchow-Kweilin highway.

Flyer Reports Jap AA Fire
Has Improved 100 Per Ceni
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The accuracy of Japanese anti
aircraft fire has improved 100 per
cent in the last three months,
presumably because of expanded use
of radar control, an American air
man reported yesterday.
1t. Col. Patrick B. Mccarthy,
Defiance, Ohio, commander of an
aerial reconnaissance unit operating
over the enemy homeland, told a
news conference that apparently the
japanese had trained enough radar
operators to man many more AA
guns. Until recently, the enemy
gunners apparently depended to a
large extent on visual aiming and
tracking.
AS to Japanese fighter plane op-
position, Col. Mccarthy said it was
his own opinion that the enemy
now was able to get no more than
20 per cent of his interceptor planes
off the ground

16-Year-0Id Seaman
Held as SwindIer
May Be Sent Home

Sixteen-year-old Arthur L. Ba-
rak, 6-foot, 200-pound coal passer
on Great Lakes steamers, whose
pose as an ensign and honeymoon
with 22-year-old WAVE at the
Washington Hotel were interrupted
by police, last night was removed
from a juvenile institution and
lodged in District Jail ION request"
of an official of the Receiving
Home.
Meanwhile, juvenile authorities
tntimated the boy would be charged
with being incorrigible and re-
turned to his parents in Detroit.
Police, who held Barak for investi-
cation at No. precinct, said he had
succeeded in obtaining credit with
local merchants by posing as an
ensign in the Maritime Service.
Barak originally was taken to the
Receiving Home, District institu-
ton which shelters children, but
after a few hours was transferred
to the District Jail through a court
order asked for by supervisor at
the home.
Not Placed With Prisoners.
Juvenile authorities explained
that, pending disposition Of the
case, the boy would not be placed
with regular piSones at the jail.
Barak ran up bill of $68.70 in
the Washington Hotel while honey
incoming. His bride was the former
Miss Jennie Walus, flrst-class sea-
man of WAVE Barracks K, accord
ing to police. Last night, through
naval channels, she said she did not
wish to make statement regard
ing her marriage.
Policeman w. L. Sparshett, who
booked Barak for investigation, said
the boy enlisted as a fireman in
the Maritime Service after falsify-
ing his age. While performing
duties on ships plying the Great
Lakes, he met Seaman Walus who
was on leave at her home in Chi
cago, Policeman Sparshott said.
After informing her he was an en-
sign and subsequently producing
an appropriate uniform to back
up the: claim, he followed her back
here and married her last week in
Rockville, Md, after giving his age
as 81, according to police. He then
purchased $3.50 worth of additional
accessories at The Mode to main
tain his ensign's guiSe and charged
the purchase, police declared.
But while the youth was arrang-
ing credit for a $3.50 purchase OF
civilian clothes at the Young Mems
Shop, that store called the Shore
Patrol and he was taken into Gus
tody and turned over to local police.
Troubles Begin to Mount.
His troubles then began to mount.
The Mode checked on Barak by talk
ing with his father in Detroit and
learned he was only 16. The police
were advised. They said he also had
given checks in other stores and
that any court action which might
be taken would have to await deter
mination of the validity Of the
checks;
Illegal wearing Of the uniform of
o United States officer is a Federal
offense and is a misdemeanor pun
ishable by six months in jail, $500
fine or both. However, Federal
authorities said they probably would
not interfere if the boy is charged
with being incorrigible and turned
over to his parents.
