Far Eastern Council
Criticizes La Guardia
BY the Associated Press

SHANGHAI, July 1s.-The Far
Eastern Council of the United Ma
tions Relief and Rehabilitation Ad-
ministration in a resolution yester-
day took Director General La Guar
dia to task for cutting relief supplies
to China drastically without con-
sulting the council.
The Russian delegate aostained
from voting on the resolution, which
was submitted by P. j. H. Stent, del
egate for the United Kingdom.
In debate over the resolution, T.
F. Tsiang. director general of
China's MIRA, declared heatedly
that at would be an intolerable
situation if one man by dictatorial
action, could stop supplies to any
receiving country"
Donald s. Gilpatric. the United
States delegate, objected to Mr..
Tsiang's remarks but said Mr.. La
Guardia's method was "unfortu-
nate"
The resolution expressed the hope
that the Far Eastern Council hence
forth would be kept fully informed
and its advice sought as to the
time when shipments to China are
resumed.
Mr.. La Guardia cut of virtually
all relief supplies except food be-
cause of complaints few supplies
were reaching areas held by Chinese
Communists.

Bedroom Fingerprints
Studied 10 Tighten
Heirens Link 10 KiIIinq
Nv the A,,oeiosed Pres,

CHICAGO, July 19.-Fingerprints
found in Suzanne Degnans bedroom
after she was kidnapped and killed
last January may play an import
ant role In the police investigation
of William Heirens' connection with
the crime, Chief of Detectives Wal
ter Storms said today.
1--WE have been working on these
hngerprints for several months, y
Mr.. Storms said, "and while we ex-
pect a positive report very shortly,
it can not yet be stated definitely
whether the prints are those OF
Heirens, Suzanne or members ofthe
Degnan family"
The detective chief said the prints
were discovered on a pasteboard box
of facial tissues shortly after the g.
year-old child was stolen from her
bed and slain and her body dis
membered. Police and the FBI have
said prints found on the $40, 600 ran
som note left In the bedroom
matched in several points to prints
Of Heirens, the 17-year-old Univer-
sity Of Chicago student.
Charles Wilson, head of the police
laboratory, did not disclose the
nature of the tests he is making
He said that after the prints were
developed they were turned over
to the police Bureau of Identifica-
tion.
Meanwhile, attorneys for Heirens
and the prosecution were busy pre-
pairing their cases for a possible
trial of the student. These plans
proceeded despite reported negotia-
tions between the State and defense
counsel which would result in the
State recommending a life sentence
instead of the death penalty for
Heirens in exchange for a formal
written confession of the Degnan
crime.

 BILL IN CONGRESS

WASHINGTOf., Feb. "A bill expected by one of it's sponsors to result in the discovery of new min eral lodes and oil pools ito bolster the nations dwindling reserves, ? was prepared for introduction to- day by eight western Senators.
 Hopes for such results was ex- pressed by Senator Carville O. Nev.), who prepared the measure which would enable land grant col leges throughout the country to ob- tain rare new scientific equipment.
 Under the measure, which Sena- tor Gossett (D-Idaho) plans to in troduce in the absence of Carville, the Bureau of Mines would be au- thorized to establish geophysical sub-stations at land grant colleges which offer accredited courses in mining engineering.
 Students taking the course in prospecting would be assured of vacation employment with Bureau field parties.

FIBRE COMES THE WAVES" TONIGHT
 AT 10TH CENTURY

The maddest, merriest mixup of of comedy, songs and romance ar riveS tonight at the 20th Century Theatre when Paramounts Here Comes the Waves" rolls in with the tide. And the tip-off on it's sure fire success is the name cast which brings Bing Crosby, Sonny Tufts and Betty Hutton together doing a bangup job.
 Preview audiences have been lav- ish in their praise of fiimdoms lat est epic in the line of musicals. Actually, Here Come the Waves" is tribute to the Navy's service women. It's the entertainment, though, that brings the house down from the opening reel on, tis said.
 Irrepressible Betty the Huttcn-tot kid, is twice as potent in dual role. She plays herself and her twin, red head and blonde, respectively, thus causing double the fun and double the commotion. Things get compli- cated when Bing falls for one sister while the twins both fall for Bing. In the meantime, poor Sonny hangs around trying to decide which one of the girls he's in love with.
 The grapevine tells us that Bing's performance will rate the same kind of orchids that his Going My Way role although the picture is the re- verse kind of story. Bing aban- dons his priests garb for Navy uniform, but the same warm, human quality persists, previewers claim. Better than that. he's the idol of the bobby socks brigade in the pie ture causing a flood of laughs from every side.
 The picture is chock full of musi- cal numbers giving Bing and Betty ample opportunities to display their versatilities.

Groundhog
 Prediction

Where were you early this morn- ing?
 From where we were, (we is mel we spotted that groundhog and he isn't going back, which means, &C., cording to the aforesaid ground hog, winter is waning. He didn't see his shadow.
 Perhaps you were elsewhere and your groundhog forecast different ly.
 But winter isn't over elsewhere
 Just read this Associated Press dispatch from Punxsutawney, Pa. which says the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club reported today that precisely at 7:52 am, the groundhog emerged from his canoe ridge weather works at Gobbler's Knob and saw. his shadow
 In accordance with an old tra- dition the grounding thus forecast 10 the world that winter weather will continue for six more weeks.
 A representative of the club said
 The verdict is six more weeks of winter. I needn't enlarge on the shadows meaning. It stands for, as YOU well know, six more weeks of rain, sleet, wind, cold, ice and snow"

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Capt. Ed die Rickenbacker says he had pro- posed to the Army, Navy and Coast Guard that the atom bomb be used to prospect" for gold and other minerals in the ice-covered South Polar region.
 Briefly, he said his idea was that the explosive force of the bomb could be used to blast the ice cap into fragments and unlock the icy doors that withhold from human knowledge the potential riches of the antarctic continent
 Speaking at luncheon, Ricken- packer, President of Eastern Air Lines conceded the suggestion "at first flush sounds like fantastic story from the pen of Jules Verne"
 But I believe" he said, that it is well within reach of potential execution
