The figures. based on reports OF

from Fort McNair, where the Army

Quantico Marine Base.
At Quantico last year 1,070 spe-

Boniface Sauer, "a, of the North
Korean Wonsang diocese and
numerous priests have been ar
rested by Communist officials OF

Bishop Francis Hong. 46. OF
Pyongyang, capital of Northern

sion was advised.
The Rev. Laurent E. Youn.

events during May indicated the
Communist peoples government
in the north had reversed a hands
off policy enforced by Soviet oc-
cupation forces before their with
drawal last December.

alton already had been sent to the

A District Court jury last night
convicted two brothers and exon
Grated a third man on i1ousebreak-
ing and larceny charges In the
theft last January of a safe con-
tanning more than $50 900 from the

colored.
Singleton Freed.
Discharged by Judge Henry A.
Schweinhaut was Louis H. Single
ton, 40, colored, of the 900 block
of Westminster street NV.
The case went to the jury at 3
pm. After taking an hour for
dinner, the jury still was deliberat-
ing at 9:55 pm. Judge Schwein-
haut at that point called in the
jury to ask whether it wished to
resume deliberations today.
The foreman, Thomas H. En-
glesby. however, said he believed a
verdict could be reached In half
an hour. The jury. returned with
its decision in 80 minutes.

Mr.. Beckley. colored, had testi-
fied during the trial Of returning
on the night Of January % and
finding three men at an automo-
bile in an alley adjoining his
home at 1900 New Jersey avenue
NV, just before he discovered his
safe was gone.
In addition to the money, Mr..
Beckley said the safe contained
some $1,000 in jewelry. 7
Assistant United States Attor-
ney Arthur J. Mclaughlin prose-
cuted the case.
The Governments case against
Mr.. Singleton centered on an
Identification of the man by Mr..
Beckley as one Of the three he
saw in the alley. Mr.. Beckley
identified Stance James as the
man who approached him with a
gun and demanded that he back
out of the alley. He did not iden-
tify Oliver James.
Bought New Automobile.
The prosecutions case against
the James brothers. however, in
cluded evidence that Stance
bought a new Cadillac with seven
$500 bills. Mr.. Mclaughlin ar
gued that this money had come
from Mr.. Beckley's safe, along
with $4,000 allegedly found in the
. home Of Oliver James.
Stances attorney, Henry Lin
coin Johnson. insisted his client
had "hit the numbers" for 10000.
and. being a gambler, spent the
winnings freely.
The James brothers were ar
rested about a month after the
theft. and Mr.. Singleton sur
rendered few days later. The

As l was going to sleep, I remembered the
words of the superintendent: "Your ceiling
is mere trifle. The roof leaks
was in the midst of a horrible dream
1t seemed that was walking along the

from lightning flashes saw that the brick
chimneys on every roof were swaying in the
wind. Suddenly, one chimney fell with
terrible crash right on me 80.
Someone screamed. sat bolt upright,
reaching for the light. The room was mess.
Our wooden column had fallen and with it
the boards and nearly all the plaster from
the ceiling. The column had shattered Annals
mirror, a chair and china cupboard.
But the only casualty was Alexander. A
large mass of plaster had fallen on his head.
His face had such silly expression that
even Anna burst into laughter.
Hold it! Hold it!'' yelled Gregory.
Don't touch your decoration Il want
to admire it some more!" And he held
Alexander S hand to prevent him from push
ing the plaster off his head. Alexander tore
himself loose and went to the bathroom to
wash. In minute he was back.
HERE sno water, he announced. Moth

comic in his distress that we all laughed
again. Even Alexander joined US.
you've got to admit, all of you, Gregory
said, that everything has come out wonder
fully! There's almost nothing left of the
ceiling. l was correct that there was no
danger. Alexander wasn't even hurt when
the plaster hit him."
Anna was pleased also. Look, boys" she
said, STOPPING down. Here's a good big
piece left from my mirror and won't have
to look for new one" Then she gave a
little scream and grabbed up big piece of
plaster in which something glinted. The
mirror fell and broke into a dozen pieces.
"A gold coin" she screamed, and imme-
diately clapped her hand to her mouth. We
crowded around her to examine this treasure
We'll. what do you know? Emperor

added proudly.

Anna by the waist and danced her around

puddles. We're rich, my love-" he shouted.

Alexander looked at her in astonishment.

Anna turned to the others. you see?
I've always said Vladimir is a diplomat.

because he loves me. So that leaves only
Alexander to give us his plan"
But you haven't told US what you want
to do" Gregory protested.
A look Of rapture came over Annals face.
True, she said, land my plan is quite SIM
pie. Alexander will take this gold coin to
that nice friend of his who operates so
cleverly in the black market
Alexander nodded gravely. Eyes. that is
the first STEP" he agreed.
Then" Anna continued. he will give us
many paper rubles which the four of US will
use for humping party. We shall dine at
arestaurant which only important Ministers
of State can afford. We shall go to the
theater and somewhere afterward for vodka.
Then we shall come back here -. and

"Bravo!" cried, and Anna blushed ap-
preciatively
Wait. We must still hear Alexander"
Gregory said.
Alexander hesitated moment. of course,

of my mind -"
"A secret?" Anna demanded.
Alexander nodded. ''The gold coin has

We ALL looked at Anna doubtfully, but she
was so delighted to have the menace of the
ceiling removed that she was agreeable to
anything,
II think Alexander is in love-" she said.

"And what is 50 important as love? We shall
wait till tomorrow for Alexander's secret"
But we were too excited to sleep. Gregory
had bottle of vodka which he brought out
of its hiding place, and we sang softly till we
became aware that our upstairs neighbors
were peering through the holes in our ceiling
to see what was going on. We had to turn
out the lights then, but we sat around in the
darkness still.

Stocks Turn Upward
After Early Losses;
Gains Range 10 81
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-Demand
for stocks expanded today after
the market got off to a wobbly
start.
Morning losses were wiped out
for a number of key issues while
others extended small advances.
Gains ranged to more than a
point.
Singled out for attention were
railway issues, oils, motors and
radio and television stocks.
The pace of trading quickened
as prices curved upward.
Wall Street sources saw nothing
in particular to account for the
upward trend. Last Thursday, it
was recalled, the market moved up
smartly in a surprise holiday
move. Since then price action has
been inconclusive in slow trade.
1t was suggested that today's move
was a continuation of the Thurs
day squirt.
