BRIDGE OF DECKS-Remem-
Der when ships were so thick on
the Cape Fear River that a per-
son could walk from shore to
shore on their decks and not get
his feet wet?
c. D. Maffitt does. Maffitt, a
shipping agent, also remembers
when the Cape Fear was frozen
over so hard that it would sup
port a person.
Apparently the days of a har-
Dor filled with ships and OF a
winter severe enough to freeze
the murky waters of the Cape
Fear, r over.
For it is on few occasions when
a merchant ship steams into port
now. And none of the younger
generation can exactly remember
when there was ice in the Cape
Fear.
The shipping agent said he
cleared and sailed eight ships in
one day back then. That is more
than has been in the Port of Will
mington in the past year, mol
counting tankers.
MISSING CARGOES-What hap
pened to those good old days? Ad-
mittedly shipping has dropped off
some. It must also be remembered
that the present day tramp steam
ers carry many times the cargo
Of the old sailing ships remember
ed by Maffitt.
Terminal facilities aren't what
they used to be in Wilmington.

FRENCH ASSEMBLY
ENDS IN UPR0AR
Charges Against Right
Wing By Rambler Bring
Adjournment

PARIS, July 2. -UD- The Ma
tional Assembly was suspended in
uproar tonight after Premier Paul
Ramadier charged that Right Wing
deputies tended to follow the same
line of action as the extreme right
list "Black Maquis" accused of plot
ting to overthrow the Fourth Re.
public.
Ramadier made his charge a
few hours after Gen. Rene Edgard
Marie De Larminat, inspector gen
eral of French overseas and coloni-
al forces, had been summarily re-
lieved of his command.
There was no official word
whether, as indicated, the dismis-
sal Of one of the highest and most
distinguished French Army men
was connected with the "Black
Maquis" plot.
It was made known, however,
that General of Reserve Jean Cast
mir Merson was being questioned
by the Surete Rationale, the French
Scotland Yard, in connection with
the conspiracy.

Four BoatbuiIders Escape
Injury In Blast AT Mary
land Town

ST. MICHAEL'S, MD, JULY
-R-Four men escaped injury to-
dav when a small bomb, believed
accidentally dropped from an I'M
identified plane, hit a boatyard
shop at Whitman and demolished
one end Of the building, state
police reported.
p second bomb exploded in a
field about so yards away, digging
"a large crater.
j. Walter Jones. proprietor OF
the shop located three miles from
here, told police he and tire help
Iers were in the one-story frame
building when they heard a plane
spass overhead.
1 A few seconds later there was
a terrific explosion, and one end
/ of the structure collapsed, pepper
ling the men with debris. All were
amomentarily stunned, but other
wise unhurt.
Whitman is about 40 airline
miles Southeast Of Baltimore,
across Chesapeake Bay.
Police Puzzled
State police at Easton were I'm
able to determine the origin or
destination of the plane. There Is
considerable non-commercial Fly
ing in the area, but no aviation
training centers of the armed
forces are in the immediate VI
cinity, they said.
In Washington, both the army
and navy, on the basis Of pre-
liminary investigation, said they
had no bomb-carrying planes IN
the vicinity at the time.
Police said they found a bomt
fragment to which a broken piece
OF a bomb shackle was alta ched'
The shackle is used to hold the
missiles under the plane fuselage
and police believed it broke ano
freed the bombs.
State police said the bomb, de-
scrlbed as small apparently
gfazed the building and landed
beside a concrete foundation, whlcf
was lifted out of the ground. A
1V-foot boat upon which the foul
men were working was wrecked

Northern Half OF Bitumin-
Gus Industry Agrees
To UNIV Terms

WASHINGTON, July 2-U.D-The
of a nationwide soft coal
strike next week was dissipated
to-day when the Northern half Of
the bituminous industry settled
with John L. Lewis on terms
which, informed sources said, in
cluded the full 35-cents-an-hour
raise demanded by the miners.
Led by U. S. Stel corporation
and the largest commercial coal
interests in the North, the opera
tors came to terms with the UNIV
president at a secret bargaining
melting here this afternoon.
A joint announcement said the
disputants had agreed Tin prin-
ciple" on a union = management
contract and that its terms would
be drafted shortly for ratification
by both sides - probably this
weekend.
Industry sources conceded that
the terms probably would have to
be accepted by the Southern and
Western mine owners who had
baked at Lewis demands. The
Southern and Western groups con-
troll slightly less than half the ma
tional coal output.

COP WILL PUSH
TAX SLASH BILL
Congressional M aority
Now See Enough Votes
To Override Veto

WASHINGTON. July 2-U.H-Ap-
parently assured of enough votes
to override a Presidential veto,
House and Senate Republican
leaders decided today to make an
other attempt to pass an indivi-
dual income tax reduction bill at
this session Of congress.
The new COP plan is to make
the tax cut effective Jan. l. In
other respects the bill is the same
as the one which President Tru-
man vetoed, with the House sus-
tanning his decision by two votes.
The previous bill would have been
effective yesterday.
The measure would cut person
al income taxes by 10.5 to 80 per
cent, for a total of about 81, 000,-
900, 900 a year.
Up Next Week
It will be considered in both
the House and Senate next week.
The decision to push the meas
ure at this session was reached
by the Republican leaders at 6
meeting called to draft a legisla-
tive program to be considered be-
fore Congress adjourns July rs.
Republicans in both houses have
been making a poll to determine
whether they now cab get the two
thirds votes necessary to override
another veto. Their decision to
press for action was taken to
mean what they believed they had
sufficient support.
Several leading Democrats re,
portedly have changed their stand
since the first veto was sustain
ed, on the basis of mail from their
constituents. Others are said tc
be agreeable to going along as
long as the effective date is Jan.

WASHINGTON, July a. R =
President Humans Air Safety
board declared today that the
tragic pattern" of past CONNER
cal air accidents will Inevitably
repeat itself" unless Congress
quickly provides for more ade-
quate landing aids to meet the
emergency situation"
Chairman James M. Lands told
the President the boards report
was prompted by a mistaken
idea in Congress that Mr.. Tru-
mans recommended program of
air safety lis Gut Of line with
similar programs being pressed
by the armed services in behalf
of national defense"
However, the board said there
is mo conflict between the pro-
gram of installing these aids and
any program now being pursued
by the armed services" and de-
clared:
Both safety in civil air trans
port and the needs of national de-
tense have rarely been better
aligned"
Declaring that an "emergency
situation" exists, the board SAID
that "accidents III the approach
and landing category are by far
the largest category of serious &C
cidents in air transportation"
High Percentage
This type, for example, repre-
scented IS per cent Of the fatal
accidents in 1916, taking IS lives,
the report said. It added that
their reduction is not a matter
Of regulation but of the installa-
ton of adequate aids"
The board identified the devices
as:
High Intensity Approach Lights
to permit pilots from "heights
of 200 to 500 feet and at distances
Of a half mile to make contact
with the runway"
Ground Control Approach-The
method by which pilots. through
use of ground radar, are talked
into safe landings.
Surveillance Radar-An install
lation which enables the control
tower at an airport to determine
with precision the directional po-
sition distance ana altitude OF air
craft within twenty or thirty miles
of the airport
lis Device
Instrument Landing Systems -
Electronic devices (which auto
matically ESQ far as ground con-
troll is c%oncerned) provide the ap-
proach to airport runways and the
glide path for landing"
Commenting en- the progress Of
the Presidents recommended pro-
gram in Congress-, the board said
that while it would cost $13, 428,
900 the House had approved only
IS, $50, 900, and the Senate only
sell, 706 for installation of the de-
vices. 1t added, however, that it
is a "prerogative Of Congress" 20
decide how much should be spent.

new FLOOD CREST
PASSES ST. LOUIS
R a g ing Mississippi
Rolls Toward Weak
Spots On Levees

ST. LOUIS, July 2. -U.P)- A
new flood crest in the mighty Mis-
sissippi, on one of the longest ram
pages in its turbulent history, pass
ed st. Louis tonight and rolled to-
ward Missouri towns where levee
workers fought to hold back flood
waters expected to be the highest
on record there.
The river fell slightly and fore
casters said the crest apparently
had been reached here on the 10th
consecutive day of flood along a
1O0-mile stretch of the swollen
river.
U. S. Engineers moved their
forces into Perry County, Mo-, to
bolster dikes protecting Claryville
and Mcbride, opposite Chester, ILL.,,
where a stage Of 38 feet or higher
was predicted.
River experts called the situation
"critical" at Claryville. They
warned that a hundred families
remaining in that area would have
to be evacuated if the fight to hold
the levees appears doomed.
Fourteen thousand Missouri and
Illinois residents were listed as
homeless in the latest Red Cross
survey. The total was 1892 in Mis-
souri,, Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska.
More than 300 homes and other
buildings have been destroyed in
the area and nearly 1000 damag-
ed, the Red Cross reported. Some
375, 900 acres were inundated.
The weather bureau here report
ed that the Mississippi crest would
reach Cape Girardeau, Mo-, 100
miles downstream, on July 4, 103rd
anniversary of that city's highest
flood.

officer, 1t. Antonio Bunta, aided
by Mrs. Mary Acebeda, wife OF a
well known Mindoro guerilla lead
err organized the civilian popula-
ton to battle the prisoners.
