Alarm Clock Bowery Buns DriUing NY. POlice Duffy
BY ROBERT RICHARDS

New York, Oct. 7-(UP)-East Side Chamber of Commerce officials are working hard these days to push all the buns from the Bowery, but alarm clock dru1llSs are driving them daffy.
 The drunks appear and disappear, like magician's rabbits.
 They've learned when to sleep. ana when to wake up,' explained recording Secretary Irving Miller, and that's our chief problem.
 Daily Routine
 Police trucks roll around three times day in our new drive. They come about 8 A. M., 5 P. M, and at midnight. But the drunks crawl away and hide. When the GODS leave, they're back on the sidewalks and continue their snoozing."
 Miller said most of the derelicts dope up on smoke" which is wood alcohol at it's rawest.
 Tt would burn up anyone else" he added, but not those guys. They love it."
 Miller said the chamber wouldn't be too irritated if the drunks only slept, but they infuriate the mer- chants by leering at female cus- toners through plate glass windows. Or they collar prospective buyer just outside the merchants store to sell him cheap watch or ring.
 Buns Have Stuff Trained
 John w. Lytus, 8 retired Coast Guard and a regular paying cus- toner at Sammy's on the Bowery, tipped us off on the alarm clock" whisky.
 "Those guys got that stuff trained" he said, "and the cops might as well give up. They've been drinking 1t so long that they

Industry Asks Federal Aid To Disperse Against Bomb

Washington, Oct. 7-(UP)- Lea ders of the nations heavy industr, who work closely with the Army fee that it will be impossible to disperst it's plants or go underground to pro. vide protection against the atomic bomb without Government subsidi. zation.
 At last weeks meeting of the Army Ordnance Association, the Army warned the industrialistS tha1 science and industry are faced witt the problem of protecting our centerS of production from the effects anG after-effectS of possible atomic bomt attack.
 But the industrial leader saiG such program would cost billions o1 dollars and could be completed only in long-range program with Gov ernment subsidization.
 Does Not Want To Spread
 The tendency of heavy industry is to concentrate in larger industrial centers rather than to spread. In- dustrialistS said this tendency is caused by:
 1. Labor demands for uni-
 form wages throughout an in-
 dustry regardless of geographical
 location.
 2. Skilled labor tends to con-
 centrate in certain areas.
 3. It is more economical to
 operate plants near sources of supply of raw materials. This is
 particularly true of the heavy
 steel industry.
 4. Heavy taxation discourages
 expansion.
 5. Strikes have hampered any
 postwar expansion plans.
 The industrial leaders believe that the answer does not lie in dispersal but in finding a defense against the atomic bomb The nations best in- dustrial research facilities are con- centrating on this problem, they said
 Believe Defense To Come
 They point out that every weapon developed has counter measure which is discovered eventually. The atom bomb itself is not a weapon without the airplane or guided missile that delivers it.
 They believe that the answer lies in better means of detection and destruction of enemy plane forma- tions. They hope this perhaps can be obtained through improvement of radar and development of guided missile with device that will guide it to the invading plane after it is fired in the general direction of the invader.
 Some of the proposals set forth to protect industry are:
 l. Disperse industry into cells" spread out over the nation or spread cities out in a long line that would be hard to destroy with one bomb.
 3. Move all industry necessary to atomic bomb warfare out of cities and encourage suburban home de- velopments.
 3. Build up such large supply of atom bombs and strategic air force to deliver them that no nation will attack for fear of retaliation.

Brush Burning
Permissible Only
4 P. M. to Midnight

The regulation established by the
Commission of State Forests and
Parks which stipulates that in the
three spring months of March, April,
and May brush and other debris may
be burned only between the hours of
400 P. NJ and - midnight has
brought District Forester William H.
Johnson, at Cumberland a number of
inquiries as to why these particular
hours are set.
1t is the result, Johnson declares,
of studies made at fire weather sta
tons of the Department of State
Forests and Parks that show air
humidity to be highest and wind velo-
city lowest in the late afternoon and
early evening. This means that burn
ing is safest at such times, with the
least chance that fire will get away.

Cleveland Hotel Fire
Kills One, Injuries II
BY the Associated Press

CLEVELAND, Nov. 19.-Fire that
flashed through the 72-room resi-
Dental Hotel Belden on Cleveland's
East Side, left one woman dead
today, II others injured, five of them
seriously, and nearly 80 occupants
temporarily homeless.
Assistant Fire Chief James Nimmc
estimated damage at $4,000 and
said the blaze apparently had a
good start before it was reported
While most the occupants were
reading, listening to their radios
or otherwise occupied last night
flames swept UP the stairwell, cut
ting of their means of escape to
many top-foor residents. Neighbors
led or helped score or more fright
ened occupants to safety before
fire companies arrived.
Two children were hurled from
second and third-f1oor windows into
the arms of neighbors in, the street
Some escaped by tying bed sheets
together and letting themselves
down from their windows. Ladders
were brought hurriedly from homes
nearby, and other occupants were
brought down them.
The dead woman was identified
from a metal tag in her purse as
Mrs. Freeda G. Shanks, a middle
aged widow.
OF II persons taken to hospitals,
only five were held overnight.
One occupant of the hotel, William
j: Brown, 81, violinist with the
Cleveland Orchestra, tossed a 81 500
violin and valuable viola out the
window before helping his wife,
Marianne, 26, violin teacher, to
safety.
