tested to Fire Chief Murphy the
designation Of Battalion Chief
Bowen as q board member.
The correspondence showed that
Chief Murphy had denied the pro-
test because of insufficient reasons. -
The District Commissioner later
approved his action.
Attorney Protests.
George Mcneil, defense attorney
argued before the trial began that
the failure to withdraw Chief
Bowen was Uncomfortable" and that
"any man could object to a board
member because he lacked con-
fidence in him."
After the conference with Chief
Bowen and Assistant Auditor R. l..
Mudd, the other member, Chair
man Irving Bryan, announced that
Chief Bowen sees no reason Tor
withdrawing" and the trial got under
way.
The first witness was Robert e.
Robson, District maintenance en-

flied that he would never suggest
the mixture of gas and oil for clean
ing boilers because of the fire haz-
ard.

British Movie Makers
Summon Emergency
Par|ey on Film Crisis
BY the Asseeiotsd Press

LONDON, Aug. 11.-Hollywood's
ban on new movies for Britain
moved the nations top producers to-
day to schedule an emergency meet
ing dealing with Britain's threat
ened Aim crisis.
E. w. Wingrove, secretary of the
British Film Producers Association,
announced that J. Arthur Rank. the
nations leading movie magnate,
would preside over a day-long gath
ering of the associations Executive
Committee on Wednesday.
The primary problem was how to
increase annual production OF be-
tween As and so feature pictures to
satisfy the needs Of exhibitors who
show approximately $50 pictures
yearly-of which 30 per cent have
been American.
Expansion Difficult.
So far this year British studios
have turned out IS full-length films.
Add to their difficulties in stepping
UP production were the recent re-
duction Of studio employees working
schedules to a 44-hour week and the
lack of facilities for expanding studio
construction.
Meanwhile, some sections Of the
British press took Prime Minister
Attlee's government to task for
choosing rs Per cent tax on foreign
movie earnings as the method to
check Britain's annual $68, 8,000, ,00G
American film expenditures.
Compromise Foreseen.
"The drastic action now hastily
taken" said the influential Times,
docs not seem at first sight to
promise an immediate reduction in
the dollar drain, but rather to jeop-
ardize the prospective dollar earn
ings of British film exports"
Mr.. Rank foresaw the possibility
of compromise in q Daily Mail
interview.
1T all sounds very serious-and
could be in time-but it will take
several months for the effects to be
felt, and by then, am confident, we
shall have found some alternative
dollar-saving scheme to suit both
sides" he told the reporter.

-Four in Yuma Are Soved
As Train Wrecks Station

YUMA, Colo. Aug. II (P.-Four
persons were dug from the shat
tered remains of the Yuma railroad
station with only minor injuries
yesterday after % cars snapped
loose from a Burlington freight
train and plowed through the
building, scattering pieces more
than 200 feet.
Railroad investigators said they
believed a hot journal box caused
the cars to jump the mainline
track in the heart of this Eastern
Colorado town.
Cars, loaded with freshly-har-
vested wheat, spilled the grain over
a 300-foot stretch of the right-of-
way and ended up in a jumbled
pile on the site of what had been
a two-story frame station.
The injured, released from the
Yuma Hospital after treatment
were Clayton Green and his wife
and her sister, Mary Sughroe, all
station employees, and Richard
Warkenthin, 14-year-old newsboy
He was in the lower floor, pick
ing up his Sunday morning papers,
He was buried in wreckage but
quickly dug out. The Greens, in
their quarters on the second floor,
were pinned in tangle of box cars
and splintered wood and were cut
out.
Traffic was resumed five hours
later over a sidetrack while section
workers began clearing the wreck
