Bradley Set Down
-Four Principles
For Reorinq Boy
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-Col. E. r,
Bradley, who died today, had no
sons of his own, but he had def
mite ideas on how they should be
reared to make them successful
citizens. He formulated for a friend
what he termed the four principles
on which he believed a boy should
be educated for the world and laid
them down in the order of their
importance:
l. That his mother teach him a
sound religion from her knee from
the age of two to IL so that the
fear of God would be instilled into
his heart.
2. That he learn to box. Not to
develop him into a bully, but to
know that he can take care of him.
self with his hands and not have to
be afraid of anyone hurting himself
physically.
3. That he be taught never to lie,
under any circumstance. One who
will not lie will not steal or do any,
thing to injure another.
4. That he learn arithmetic.
Then, when others are talking, he
can be thinking in the terms of
figures and percentages. This will
insure his financial success,

gangster knowledge. They obtained
jobs with the gang. Capone and
many of his Chicago gang leaders
came from Brooklyn. Mr.. Trey had
a telephone switchboard set up to
listen in on scores of taps on
gangsters' telephones.
Mr. Trey was at his Treasury Office
many hours for more than year
getting reports from the Chicago
switchboard and giving orders to
keep his men safe. He made oc-
casional trips to Chicago, on one
occasion holding final council of
war in a Gary 1nd) hotel.
A tip from an operator working
for the gang as beer checker made
the Treasury men aware that a
ledger book taken five years before
in raid on the Hawthorne Smoke
Shop, a Capone gambling place in
Cicero, contained evidence of the
distribution of profits. Mr.. Wilson
searched the property room in the
post Office building for days and
finally came upon it. This one op-
Grafton showed 100000 profit.
Bookkeepers Hunted.
A search then began for book
keepers. Examination of the hand
writing showed there were two. The
operator, at considerable risk oo-
tanned their names-Al Dunbar and
Frank Rose.
Dunbar, was traced to Miami.
Mr.. Wilson went there at Mr.. Irey's
direction. He narrowed his quest
down to three men employed at
the Hialeah race track
The men were photographed at
the employees entrance to the track
by a camera concealed In the head
light Of an automobile. The photo
graphs were sent back to Chicago,
where rooming house keeper iden-
titled one as Dunbar. Frank Rose
was located in Illinois.
Given 11-Year Term
Mr.. Trey had agents take the two
men from city to city to keep them
out of reach of the gang, Finally
they were brought into Chicago late
at night to the post Office building
and the next day they testified be-
fore the grand jury. Capone was
indicted and went on trial in
October, 1881, before Federal Judge
James NJ Wilkerson. He was con-
victed and sentenced to IL years.
One of the jobs of the war direct
ed by Mr.. Trey was the overnight
seizure of property of Japanese
aliens on Sunday and Monday,
December 7 and 8, 1941. He as
sembled 1000 agents on the coast
to complete the job. A few days
later his agents took over German
and Italian properties. Last winter

Terrific Force Believed Driving
SPACE Bullets Toward Earth
By Thomos R. Henry

Space bullets propelled by forces
as great as 100000 900, 600, 900 900
electron volts--about $4,000, 900 900
times the power released in the
splitting of the uranium atom-pre-
sumably are hitting the outer edge
of the earth's atmosphere.
This was revealed by DR.. w. G.
F. Swami, director of the Bartol
Research Foundation of Philadel-
phia. here today with the return
to Washington yesterday of the
National Geographic Society-Army
Air Forces cosmic ray expedition
These supercosmic rays never
have been directly recorded, DR..
Swami said, since they apparently
are broken up long before they come
within range of any measuring in
strument. Their existence can be
deduced, however, from the particles
into which they disintegrate.
Negatrons Believed Present.
The present conception of the
cosmic ray, DR.. Swami explained
is that of proton, or positively
charged electrical particle such as
forms the nucleus of all atoms, and
the singly ionized helium atom
This would be an atom of helium
with one of its outer electrons
knocked off. AS soon as they hit
the outer atmosphere, many of the
rays are broken up into smaller
particles propelled by weaker forces
There is some reason to believe
he pointed out, that some of the
cosmic particles are negatrons, OF
elementary particles the size and
weight of protons which carry mega
tive charges of electricity like cleo
irons. The existence of these was
first actually demonstrated a few
months ago by Prof. Peter Kapitza
celebrated Russian physicist, with
instruments taken to the top of 9
high mountain in the Caucasus.
| The idea has been considerably
expanded recently, DR.. Swami said
by the Danish physicist, Prof
Arley of the University of Copen-
hagen, who has demonstrated the

LEXINGTON, KY, Aug. 15.-A
close associate of Col. E. r. Brad
ley. noted sportsman who died to-
day, once said Col. Bradley and the
late F. T. Stotesbury, Philadelphia
and New York capitalist, had set
tied personal misunderstanding by
tossing penny for million dollars.
The sum may have been slightly
exaggerated, but the incident was
typical of the two men. The story,
from source who should have
known. went like this:
Col. Bradley and Mr.. Stotesbury-
leader of the older set of Palm
Beach society, the first man to wear
white evening clothes and fire.
quent patron at Bradley's casino
with It's gay '90s atmosphere-had
been friends for years.
Settle Tiff With Toss.
One winter season they had a
slight misunderstanding. They
stopped speaking. Other friends
worried about the tiff between the
elderly gentlemen, but hesitated to
interfere. Finally Col Bradley and
Mr.. Stotesbury met face to face in
the Beach Club. They both looked
bit sheepish. Then they smiled.
Col. Bradley said: Look here,
Ed, let's settle this thing like sports
men and gentlemen" He took
penny from his pocket and held it
ready to flip.
Mr. Stotesbury replied: why
sure, Ed, you name the amount"
The man who told this story in
confidence years ago insisted that
Col. Bradley mentioned one million
dollars and that Mr.. Stotesbury did
not bat an eye, but called heads"
or tails The story-teller would
not reveal who won the toss. But
the tiff between the two Eds was
over.
Bradley Often Returned Losses.
Col. Bradley frequently returned
large sums of money to persons who
had lost it in his Beach Club. He
always did when he was sure they
could not afford to lose that much
money.

Meteors Offer Threat.
In statement released by the
Army Air Forces at the time of the
return of the cosmic ray expedition,
it was stressed that the swarms of
meteors outside the earth's atmos-
phere may soon become a matter
of practical concern for aviators.
Meteor showers and unidentified
rays which seriously affect radio and
other electrical equipment may take
the place of bad weather encount-
cred at low attitudes and the danger
will increase the higher an aircraft
or air rocket ascends,' said the
statement.
Millions of meteors ranging from
microscopic size to giant proportions

daily but nearly all are burned up
by the friction of the atmosphere
before arriving in the lower air
regions. AS Army aircraft are built
to enter the outer regions of the

"Technicians feel it may be neces-
sary to protect high-flying air
rockets by providing lightweight
radar which will permit the rockets
to pick up oncoming meteors and
change course, avoiding collision"
