Sympathy strikes continued to spread in riot-torn Bolivia today. The country'S rich tin mines re- mained shut but emergency armed forces were reported to have re- stored order in the Patino mining areas, where rioting brought death to 40 persons and injured 83 in the past five days.
 Rioting broke out over the weekend after the government de- ported number of labor leaders. All the country's rail lines have been paralyzed by a sympathy strike and Bolivia's food supply is threatened
 Settlement of the Berlin prob lem is begged down over RuSSia's inSiStence that the veto be part of any future fOur-pOWer admins tratiVe policy. The western pow CTS and Russia split yesterday in the foreign ministers conference at Paris. The western powers pro posed that the veto power be limited. RusSia'S Andrei Vishinski said no. However, Vishinsky hint ed that the Russians might agree to trim the area of authority of the KOmmandatura Allied gov erning body for Berlin.
 French sources said Vishinsky agreed that the Kommandatura' functions might be re-examined His statement was interpreted to mean that some authority might be withdrawn from the Komman- datura and delegated to local Ger man administration. This avenue of approach will now be explored in the hope of reaching four power agreement.
 The Russian press lashed at American insiStence that the veto be curtailed. A TaSS dispatch on the four-power conference said the U. s. delegation would accept only a set-up "in which the deci- sive word will belong to the west ern powers who hold the majority of votes"
 American officials in Western Germany are concerned over an unemployment crisis which may be faced soon. There are 100000 jobless and the number is grow ing monthly. The officials plan to fight the serious unemployment problem with public workers pro- jects.

The port has been hem med in by communist forces for some time. These sources said the United States navy had already bandoned Tsingtao. A Shanghai U. s. navy source said the report likely was true.

"killer" armed with another rifle.
The guest on seeing him, quick
ly slammed the door in his face.
In less than two minutes, the ia
tai shot was fired through the liv-
ing room and Mrs. Dunlap fell

Again the question arises as to
what the grand jury and the pros

as a First Degree Manslaughter
and send the alleged killed up for
a "short vacation" of one to
twenty years, or will they charge
and convict him Of first degree

writer's viewpoint.
AS it appears from here it was
first degree murder, since the
slayer went home and took time
enough to cool off" before re-
turning tothe scene of the crime

murder" Will bet. Sgt. Gleaton
and bet. R. O. l.. Johnson's facts

Court Rules No
Bias In Alexandria
Schools Proven

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (ANP)-
The two-yeaf old litigation
against the Arlington County
School board, charging it discri-
minated against Negroes, was
dismissed in U. S. District court
court here last week by Judge
Albert V. Bryan. The jurist's rul-
ing held that certainly no dis
elimination has been proven by
the preponderance Of the evidence.
The suit, brought by Constance
Carter, 17-year-older then attend
ing Hoffman-Boston High school,
asked that she be. given "equal''
facilities and instruction at her
school or be admitted to Wash
ington-Lee High school for whites.
The county board, in its defense,
argued that opportunities were
''equal but not identical" in the
two schools.
In handing down his decision,
Judge Brown Bryan concurred
with the school board and said
the "14th amendment . pro-
vides that all citizens must re-
ceive from the state in equal
measure it's protection and bene-
fit.
"But neither the same nor
similar treatment is commanded
by the amendment. Equal in it's
eyes means equivalent. It is OBJ

Despite the fact that the lat
est killing onthe west side last
Friday night is ''smothered with
mystery and the police areaware
Of the alleged killer, the main
question on the minds Of the citi-
gems is "Will it be just Another
Murder and will the verdict Of
the grand jury in it's examina-
lions be the Automatic Second
Degree Manslaughter" as has been
the case of the many recent kill
ings on the West Side.
No doubt there will be many
angles by the time of the trial
as the usual parade Of eyewit-
nesses are marched tothe stand
to tell what happened when Mrs.
Mary Sylvia Dunlap, the % year
old house wife was shot down in
the living room of her home at
66 Bragg Place, Desota Bass
Courts, allegely by Ernest Stevens
Of 927 Custer Place also of the
Courts, after two attempts had
been made to enter the home.
According to the story told to
bet. Sgt. Lucious Gleaton and
bet. R. o. L. johnson, the "Christ-
mas Party" got on it's way Fri
day night and was going full
bloom whenit was interrupted by
a knock at the front door which
was answered by Frank Dunlap,
the husband Of the murdered wo-
man, who faced the "killer" arm
ed with the rifle. Following a
scuffle, Dunlap rested the gun
from the man and told him to
abe on his way. to which the
unwelcome "guest" replied. "I'm
going back and get another gun
and come back and shoot the
whole s'dam bunch.
The party continued on it's way,
Dunlap went to bed and at 4 am.
was awakened by two shots from
the rifle from outside Of the liv-
ing room n of them hitting
Mrs. Dunlap in the base Of her
skull, killing her near her Chris

forth with the motive of the kill
ing, while at the sametime, many
angles concerning the a are
being discussed by those who wit
messed the fatal shooting.
When Stevens returned at the

REPLIES IN REGARD TO YOUR

2. @. l purchased a car in 1910
for $1,000 and in 1941 was forced
TO sell it for $500. Upon returning
to the coast it was necessary to
purchase another car of the same
type but the price was $1,000.
Assuming depreciation of this
$1,000 car after six or eight
months use 10 be around $500,
thus making the actual value of
the car in 1871 at $500, could I
claim the difference of $500 from
$500 or $500 actual loss as a re-
suit of the evacuation?
A. You have good claim at least
for the difference between the value
of your car in 1910 and the amount
you received for 1t at the time of
the evacuation and a reasonable
claim for the difference between
the 1941 and replacement value. I
would suggest claiming the larger
amount.

How about, personal expenses in
