"Tokyo Rose" Convicted Of Treason by Jury

SAN FRANCISCO, (P)-Stony faced, Iva Toguri D'Aquino heard herself convicted of treason last night-for telling American troops their ships had been sunk in Leyte Gulf and they were orphans of the Pacific"
 A somewhat reluctant federal court jury of six men and six wo- men brought in the verdict after four days deliberation. A sur prised "Oh.' of apparent disap- pointment. swept the courtroom.
 Iva-Los Angeles-b born and edu- cated-remained as stOic as she had during the 12-Week trial. Head bowed, she said nothing. No tears. Later she told her attorney "I can't understand it." An appeal is planned.
 October was set for sentenC- ing. The minimum sentence would be five years imprisonment and a $l0,000 fine; the maximum death. But the government did not ask for the death penalty.
 Foreman John Mann said the jurors would have liked to acquit the 33-year-old woman known to CTS as Tokyo Rose, but we did the only thing we though possible under the judges instructions"
 Actually, she was convicted on only one of the eight counts in the indictment. That one related to her broadcast from radio Tokyo in October, 1914, about the Leyte Gulf battle.
 Kenkichi Oki, an official of ra- dio Tokyo testified the defendant said Now you fellows have lost all your ships. You are really or phanS of the Pacific. How do you think you are going to get home"
 That, the jury decided, was suf- ficiently damaging to American morale to constitute treason.

Premier Johnson May Discuss
 Alaskan Railroad

VICTORIA, B. C., (P)-The Bri- tish Columbia cabinet will discuss today a request that Premier By ron Johnson go to Washington, D. C., to talk over railway connec- tions between Alaska and United States.
 The Premier, in a wire from U. s Senator Warren C.. Magnuson, was invited to Washington next week.
 Premier Johnson was guarded in his comment yesterday. He de- clined to say whether he would make the trip. Nor did he confirm that the telegram has been dis cussed at special meeting of the Cabinet.
 Previously the Premier made it clear he would welcome discus sion which was soundly based, free from promotional aspects and did not involve large grants of B. C. resources.
 The Premier said he was leav- ing for Ottawa at the weekend and intimated he might have more to say on Senator Magnuson's in vitation after the cabinet meeting tomorrow.
 The Pacific Great Eastern Rail- way has frequently been mention ed as a southern link in rail line joining the U. s. Pacific North west with Fairbanks. The railway now extends from Squamish, 347 miles to Quesnel and is being pushed 83 miles from Quesnel to Prince George.
 Provincial plans call for the line to be extended ultimately from Prince George into the Peace River country.

WA S H INGTON, (P) - Adm. Louis Denfeld, chief of naval op- erations, declined today to provide American naval intervention for release of three United States merchant ships held at Shanghai by nationalist gunboats.
 Denfeld. replying to a request from the owners, wired that "you will appreciate that the employ ment of United States naval forces under the present circumstances is not in accord with United States government policy"

BOSTON, (P)-Morris Fineberg, 56-year-old veteran Boston Post photographer, was killed and four others, including three naval of ficers, injured yesterday in mock marine and navy amphibi- ous assault on a Boston bathing beach before thousands of specta- tors.

 The assault landing was termed "an outrage by Boston police commissioner Thomas F. Sullivan.
 He said, in a statement, that school officials who gave children a day off to witness the demon stration should be put away for sending the children over there"

Some of the finest sophomore
basketball talent in the Southern
Conference will be on display to-
night when Dukes Blue Devils
tangle with Washington and Lees
Generals at Lynchburg. Va.
Both the Blue Devils and the
Generals are building for the
future in a big way, with an eye
toward ending the cage domination
of the N. c. State Wolfpack. And
both appear to have the upcoming
stars to make life miserable for
N. C. State in the near future.
For Duke, already regarded as
a contender for the loop cage
crown, there's Dick Groat, a 6-foot
guard, who averaged 18 points for
the first four Blue Devil games.
And there is Dick Crowder. g.
foot 5-inch center; Dayton Allen,
Ct center, and Jim Kulpan, 6-6
forward, high scorers every one.
In fact, of II men on the Duke
squad, 10 are sophomores of the
likes Of these. No wonder the
Blue Devils are looking to the
future.
w. and L. Prospects Bright.
Washington and Lee, off to a
poor start this season, but with
great prospects nevertheless, has
one OF the brightest sophomore
stars in the circuit in Jay Handlan.
Last year, as a raw freshman,
Handlan earned a spot on the
Virginia All-State quintet and
poured more than 800 points
through the hoops.
Handlan isn't alone. The Cen
erals, under new Coach Con Da-
Wis. also have sparkling newcomers
in Talbot Trammell, Chuck Grove
and Dave Hedge. Grove and
Hedge are listed as starters, along
with Handlan, against Duke.
The Generals are better than
their 1-3 conference record would
indicate. Their early games were
against the best in the confer
|ence. They won over Wake For
est, but lost to N. c. State, Mary

Romans Began Custom
OF Gifts at New Year

Some authorities claim that the
invading Roman legions introduced
the custom of gift-giving at New
Years time into England by COM
mandeering,' a la Caesar, gifts and
sums of money from the populace.
Medieval royalty, who were not
as wealthy as they were reported
to be, revived the custom as a
means of replenishing the royal
wardrobes, treasures and even
larders. Queen Elizabeth relied on
the custom for new petticoats.
mantles, silk stockings, bracelets,
necklaces, precious jewels, etc.
Peers, bishops, clerics, ladies'
in-waiting, physicians, cook s.
everybody contributed.
Oliver Cromwell's Puritan gov
ernment outlawed the custom, but
it was re-revived when the Stuarts
we're restored to the throne. Indi-
vidual circumstances governed the
gift-giving among ordinary citi'
zens and, since common pins were
expensive in those days, middle
class gentlemen usually gave their
wives and daughters pins or pin
money
dramatically, pin money has
survived the days of the expensive
pin, while the custom of gift-giving
at New Years time has deterior'
ated into obsolescence in England
and the United States.
