after receiving inquiries from several
Navy units whether giant tortoises
from the Galapagos Islands In the
Pacific would be eligible. Marines
at Quantico were repeatedly training
500-pound tortoise for the race,

To rule out any unfair competi-
ton and clarity entry requirements,
the fair committee of Immanual

Personnel Practices
In War Department

A Senate Civil Service Subcom-
nittee will look into the War De-
partment's personnel practices.
Taking cognizance Of reports that
the department is replacing civil
Jams with military personnel and
that thousands of scientists and
other professional men are being
denoted, Chairman LANCER set up
the subcommittee to investigate the
situation
War Department officials have
admitted that in many instances
officers are replacing top-grade civil
service employees. In addition, thou
sands of civil service employees in
the middle and top-pay brackets are
being down-graded to lower-paying
jobs. This has brought threats of
mass designations by top scientists
In the department.
The War Department says it is
investigating ethese changes for
economy reasons. However, critics
Of these moves assert that it will
not effect economy because high
salaried military men, who other
wise might be retired, will step into
the jobs formerly held by civil serv-'
Ice employees.
An investigation of the War De-
partment has already been started
by the House Civil Service Com
mittee.
The Senate subcommittee will
consist of Senators Thye, Repub-
hcan, of Minnesota; Ecton, Repub-
ncan, of Montana, and O'Conor,
Democrat, of Maryland.
The same subcommittee was also
named to inquire into possible Com
munist infiltration among Govern
ment employees in the Panama Canal
Zone. The subcommittee plans a
trip to Panama either next month
or following the adjournment of
Congress.

Cruiser Wrecked In Boat Race

SEATTLE P)-Wrecked Friday night on Puget Sound, the 37-foot cruiser Dorothy became a casual ty of the l947 international pre- dicted Jog powerboat race from Bremerton, Wash, to Nanaimo, B.. C. None of the seven persons aboard was injured.
 As result of the accident, how ever, nine race officials were not on hand for the finish of the 145- nautical-mile event in which l32 power cruisers competed.
 The officials were being taken to Nanaimo on the coast guard cutter Naugatuck, which turned aside to aid the stricken cruiser.
 The Dorothy rammed a barge off Possession Point just after turning a new leg on her course, the owner w. T. Coy of White Center said. He and his party re- turned to Seattle aboard the Nau- gatuck Saturday.
 Failure of the race officials to reach the finish line did not pre- vent the accurate check of the many cruisers as they completed their run. Many Canadian yachts men who have been working closely with officials at Bremerton were at Nanaimo to compare run ming and predicted times.

Alaska Ships To
 Be Loaded From Largest Pier

SEATTLE, (P)-The successful acquisition of Pier AZ, for Alaska shipping, one of the largest dock ing facilities on the Pacific coast, has been announced here by Mi chael Dederer of Seattle.
 MT. Dederer, who is chairman of the Alaska committee of the Seat tie chamber of commerce, said the gigantic wartime dock which con- sists of two loading piers, railroad sidings and tremendous warehouse space, will be used by steamer lines serving Alaska and will eliminate standby time while boats are being loaded.
 According to MT. Dederer as many as 150 trucks can discharge their loads inside the pier at one time. The pier is we'll equipped with loading accessories, such as fork lifts, powered trucks, cranes and other devices to facilitate loading.
 Ii was one of the main staging facilities during the war for the army's Pacific campaign and un- til only a few months ago was still on the highly secret list.
 MT. Dederer said the Seattle chamber of commerce had been working since the wars end to

GuerriIIas Fight; And Cross Border

ATHENS, CP)-Press dispatches deported today that guerrilla bands had attacked two points in northern Greece near the Yugo- slav border, and that in each case they withdrew after battle to Yu- goslav territory.
 Greek troops pursued harassing action against leftist forces in the mountains near the frontier of Al bania, Yugoslav's western neigh bor, after repelling the offensive against Konitsa last week.
 Dispatches today from Salonika said 400 guerrillas had attacked Mouries, 25 miles north of Ealon- ika, at dawn yesterday but were repelled by Creek commandos who killed 10 before the remaining guerrillas fled across the Yugoslav border two miles away.
 Army casualties were two killed and two wounded.

Mans Body Found In Cook Inlet

ANCHORAGE, tP) - A body identified through personal ef- fleets as that of Belford D. Housel, missing with his wife since May 4, was brought here by the army's 10th rescue squadron after being found in the waters of Cook Inlet near Fire Island.
 Roy Alex, a fisherman, discov- cred the body Saturday, but saw no trace of Mrs. HouSel nor the l8-foot launch in which the young war veterans set out from Anchor age two and One-half months ago for a homestead site.
 HOusel had been employed in the district engineers office at Fort Richardson. His wife Ruth was with the post personnel of flee.
 Chief deputy marshal Bill Heal ey said Housel was identified without question through a pie ture of Mrs. HouSel and civilian pass to the fort, both found on the body.
 Fort Richardson officials said HOusel's father, Jacob B. Housel, lives at Rocky Hill, N. J. and his mother, Mrs. Bush Housel, at Princeton, N. J.

stepped cut Of the line and ap-
preached the official with an un-
usual request. He did not like the
tag, he said, but would be glad
to pose with his own Identification
papers instead.
And forthwith, out of his pocket,
he produced a letter, creased and
torn at the edges, but easily read
able. The letter was signed by
Field Marshall Alexander and ex-
pressed his sincere thanks to the
bearer for his heroism in helping
considerable number of British
airmen escape the Nazis, despite
grave danger to himself and his
family. Now, after having escap-
ed himself, the man thought this
letter sufficient Identification The
official didn't.
Palestine kids-being no differ
emit from Others-demand frequent
visits to the Zoo, and parents have
resigned themselves to meeting
their friends at the elephants
cage. "BungO" Is a newcomer and
of irresistible attraction. His ar
rival was also not without cOmpli-
catiOns-poOr BungO ran straight
into a curfew. The suspicious
looking lOrry, loaded with an
enormous case, was held up at the
Tel Aviv boundary. The driver
having shown his curfew-pass and
identity card, was>questiOned as to
the contents of the case. "Just
an elephant" he answered innO-
Gently. But soldiers and police
officers weren't out for fun. They
decided to investigate. The driv-
er's protesting served only to. en-
nance their suspicious and so, with
great precautiOn and ado, they
approached the cage. 1t made odd
noises, not quite like the ticking
of a time bomb, but then, you
never can tell with all these new
gadgets. At last. Drawing all
dangers, the case was opened-and
there was BungO greeting the
heroes with a terrific roar!

and wondered for how long more.
Now, absent-mindedly, the ex-
lieutenant watched the change of
guards outside. They were young
English soldiers, fully armed and
very properly dressed. Suddenly,
the lieutenant gave a start, and on
the other side of the wire patroll-
ing private stopped short. And
then, slowly, a why and bitter
smile spread on David's face and
an embarrassed look crept into
the eyes Of the soldier. There they
stood, staring-and remembering
the battle of Ell Alamein :.

France they had been through
it all together-the officer and his
batman :. What they had
shared was torn now by barbed
wire, the officer looked up, his
batman mounting guard "Oh

took up his patrolling. David
turned slowly away. There was
nothing to say.
No picture of Palestine would
