Russian Spy Film

SINCE MOST of the espionage

seen have been either from Holly

with considerable interest that we

The technique they employ is
entirely different from ours, even
though they do have a trick end

of fact. The surprise element is
evidently considered unnecessary.
There's no fooling around. You
know who the gestapo members
are. You know what they want
and YOU know who the Russians
are.
In rather episode fashion Mill
tary Secret" tells of thG abduction
of Russian engineer by the Ger
mans and their fruitlesS attempts
to wiring from him details of the
plans for a new type of gun, a
secret weapon called "L-2.
However. they have the wrong
man, for the zeal inventor is busy
back in Moscow, while the cap

Fluctuations in the use of pas
senger train equipment sectionally
are noted with a downward ten
dency of passenger travel since
the first of the year, according to
the Kendall report to the Associa-
ton of American Railroads.
Some sections of the country re-
port, however, that passenger bust
ness continues at a rate ahead OF
a year ago.
The many special services that
the railroads are called on to pro-
vide are indicated in the continued
use of passenger train equipment
as reflected in the following COM
parison of the figures for January
this year, as compared with like
period year ago:
Total passenger train car miles
show an increase of is per cent;
passenger coach car miles in
creased 8 per cent; mail, express
baggage, etc, car miles show an in
crease of Al per cent. No later fig
ures are as yet available.
No reliable estimates can be made
as to what may be expected as a
result of the changing conditions
in the battle areas, but the indica-
tions point toward continued
heavy demand for paSSenger-carry-
ing cars. as we'll as for headend

into streams. Later the material
from the culm banks at mines was
reworked to obtain small usable
coal and in the process of washing
additional quantities of smallest
coal were washed downstream.
Principal rivers draining the
fields where dredging is taking
place, are the Susquehanna, Schuyl-
kill and Lehigh. Several larger
creeks-the Shamokin, Mahanoy,
Wiconisco and SWatara, all feeding
into the Susquehanna, also produce
sources of underwater" coal. The
breaking up of ice in the spring
and high waters move this river
coal downstream.
River coal was first dredged in
the 1905. Today approximately 100

taken from the streams amounts
to approximately $1,500,000 an

The trout season at Virginia Hot
Springs opens on Friday and will
run to July 81. Many streams and
rivers enjoy varying degrees of
popularity, but by far the best
favored is the Cascades stream

Recently well over 1000 large
trout, ranging from 9 to 20

lake and planted in this stream
These trout were raised in the
Homestead nursery in the lake
which were replenished with several
thousands fingerlings from the
