If you want to edgestitch lace
and embroidery trim on a new
spring blouse, make a dress with
rows of elastic shirring at the
waist or have coat with thread
braiding on the collar and cuffs,
invest in a sewing machine at
tachment, recently stocked in
Washington. The attachment is
small and goes on your sewing
machine in place of the presser
foot. It makes a zigzag stitch in
four different widths. You can
make the zigzag stitches close to-
gether or far apart by regulating
the stitch length on your sewing
machine. You'll find this gadget
simple to use. Even beginners
will do well with it. because
guide plate holds trims and fab
RIGS evenly together as you sew.
The attachment also has a guide
clip for elastic shirring and for
ornamental thread braiding. An
other idea; if you'll look at the
seams on one of your best slips,
you'll see that they are sewn with
flexible zigzag seam. You can
use the attachment for making
these long wearing lingerie seams.

Hairless Continues
Active In Race
For GOvernOrShip

AS his campaign as Democratic
candidate for Governor neared the
home stretch, Richard F. (Dick)
Hairless continued his whirlwind
tours of state communities during
the past week, continuing to stress
that in his belief low taxes and
full employment go hand in hand.
He broke his campaigning only
to accept an invitation to be the
principal speaker last Friday at
the graduation of 119 jet fighter
pilots at Williams Air Force Base.
Hairless had been invited to Will
liams not as a gubernatorial cam
didate but as a former congress
man and member of the aviation
committee of the House of Repre-
sentatives. In turn, he did not
mention his candidacy, but confined
himself to the subject of modern
aviation and its Importance to the
nation and the world.
The night before the Williams
graduation ceremony he appeared
at rallies in Globe and Miami, and
Immediately after the ceremony,
| he was flown to the north, to con-
tinue his campaign at Showlow
and McNary and appear personally
at a rally in Springerville.
He spoke at rallies in Holbrook
and eWinslow Monday, Flagstaff
and Williams Tuesday, and had
rallies scheduled at Kingman on
Thursday and Prescott Saturday.
Hairless was scheduled to return
to Phoenix next Tuesday, with a
dinner meeting scheduled in Mesa
Wednesday, August 16..

organization went into high, with

Frank Dykes in announcing his
candidacy for Judge of Superior
Court says that he feels his ex-
perience as a school teacher, as
sistant superintendent of public
schools of Arizona and q years
in the practice of law have fitted
and qualified him for this office.
He feels, by his long expert
ence in the practice of law here,
if elected, will not have to fight
for justice, because he knows
what it actually is and will base
his decision on justice and fair
play for all, regardless of race,

SPORTS ROUNDUP
BY BUS

against Fr0QQl0 bcSIlOIc III Dull
falo the other night with a a.
round TKO, he boosted Joe Louis
chances to be a one-Sided favorite
in their coming fight at Yankee
Stadium this fall. I wonder how
stale Charles was that p.m.!
When a team that is supposed
to win the pennant starts losing
as the Dodgers have in this past
month, rumors start flying from
every where about next years
trades. The latest hitting the head
lines is that Jackie Robinson will
not be with the Dodgers next
year. Maybe he won't-but I bet
it will not be hard to get any
team to take him and if he is
traded, look for Hickey to try to
get whole team for Jackie and
come pretty close to getting it.
Jackie is really in a slump and
has lost 80 points from his batting
average in the past IS days. Burt
Shotton benched him the other
day after he made an error. Jackie
naturally didn't like it-and you
can expect flare-ups going down
the home stretch.
If Jake LaMotta doesn't defend
his middleweight championship
against Sugar Ray Robinson by
Oct. II, the title may be taken
from him by the National Boxing
Association.
Rex Layne, the rough Lewiston,
Utah, youngster, defeated Turkey
Thompson the other night scoring
a 10-round unanimous decision
over him before 1000 fans. This
is more than the Charles-Beshore
fight drew.
I wonder what was behind the
gunshot battle in Philly involving
Lightweight Boxing Champion,
Ike Williams manager, Frank
Palermo. Could the "bookies" be
mad about the loss they have had
to take in Ike's last two fights?
Violence flared among the New
York Giants and the Philadelphia
Phillies on the ball field last Sat-
urday afternoon after Henry
Thompson, former Kansas City
Monarch infielder and Giants
third baseman, was knocked un-
conscious by Andy Seminick, the
Phillies catcher. Thompson had
to leave the game. And later,
Monte Irwin was shifted from first
to third when Rigney was elected
for taking punch at Seminick
for sliding hard and high into him
at second base on relay play.
Larry Dolby has really been
socking that ball since he was
beaned about two weeks ago
he has hit 10 homeruns in his last
IA games and now has a season
total of 10 and he leads the In
dians with twenty doubles as well
as in hits.
Big Luke Easter who has and
is having a slump of the worst
kind was given a Luke Easter
Day" in st. Louis the other day
when Cleveland played the St.
Louis Browns. Easter, a native of
st. Louis, whom many of the
crowd came to watch and cheer
went hitless in the first game, but
broke loose with three hits in the
second game to show his appre-
citation for the gifts bestowed by
his friends between games. The
party thrown for Easter included
a dress drill by the Tom Powell
Post drum and bugle team; talk
on the public address system by
Lawrence Carroll, commander of
the Tom Powell Post; presentation
of gifts, including a combination
radio-television-record player, a
set of luggage and a gem. One
gift came from the National Lead
Company, in st. Louis, with whom
Lucious Luke was formerly en-
ployed.

 WASHINGTON. April = H = Senator Tydings' assertion that FBI records fully clear owen Lattimore of Communist spy" charges left Senator Mccarthy completely dis satisfied today.
 Tydings, Maryland Democrat. heads the Senate committee inves- tigating the contentious of Me- Carthy. Wisconsin Republican. that Lattimore is Russias top espionage agent in the United States.
 Lattimore. an American authority on Far Eastern affairs. yesterday spent more than three hours in the witness chair blasting at McCarthy's accusations. The hearing later ad- journed until Tuesday. His sworn testimony boiled down to saying Mo- Carthy had uttered base and con- temptible lies"
 Then Lattimore leaned back and faced Tydings across the table. And Tydings told him:
 T think as chairman of this committee owe it to you and to the country to tell you that four of the five members of the committee, in the presence of J. Edgar Hoover. head of the FBI. had a complete summary of your files made avail able to them.
 MT. Hoover himself prepared these data. It was quite lengthy anl at the conclusion of the reading of that summary, in great detail, it was the universal opinion of all the members of the committee present and all others in the rooms, of which there were two more, that there was nothing in that file to show that you were Communist or ever had been a Communist, or that you ever were connected with any espionage information or charges"
 Mccarthy. out of the hearing room at the time. later fired back to newsmen:
 Either Tydines hasn't seen the files. or he is lying, There is no other alternative" Tydings had said the committee saw summary of the FBI record on Lattimore-not the so-called raw" file.
 Mccarthy re.orted he does not know what Hoover gave the com, mittee, but I know what is in tho files"

 The subcommittee is supposed to find out how this column got Gen eral Bradley's secret testimony. Senator Thomas had reported to the press that the Chief of Staff was not worried about war with Russia. To keep the record straight however, this column gave word by-word account of Bradley's re- marks, which differed considerably from Senator Thomas's version.
 Following this, Cotton Elmer" named three Senators to investi- gate this columnist-Joe O'Mahoney of Wyoming, Willis Robertson of Virginia and Homer Ferguson of Michigan. They are now checking on all the secret transcripts to find which one might have slipped into

WASHINGTON, April 7--R-The International Association of Ma chinists today accepted the bid of CIO President Philip Murray to join in labor unity talks.

 It was the second such acceptance in two days. John L. Lewis said yes- terday he will recommend to his international executive board April 1S that the miners accept Murray's invitation.
 The Murray proposal is for estab- lishment of joint committee to CO., operate on legislative, political and economic problems. The same com mittee would work to achieve merger of labor unions into single powerful federation.

WALTHUST0N, POLITICIANS MOVIE ACTOR, K. (. MURDER IS STRICKEN STYMIES COPS

HOLLYWOOD, April 7-lR)-Wal- ter Huston, one of the nations most eminent stage and screen actors, died today.
 He was stricken at his hotel suite late yesterday, just before sur prise 66th birthday party planned for him by his son, Director J5iln Huston, and others.
 He was unable to go to the party but celebrated his birthday at the hotel in Beverly Hills with Spencer Tracy, John Huston and other friends.
 Huston's physician, Dr. Verne Ma son, said the ailment apparently was kidney trouble or a blood clot. Huston rested easily during the night but complained of pain again about am today and died shortly after am.
 Huston returned from New York only a few days ago, intending to start a new picture Monday, a humorous story of a forger's career called "Old 880"
 Six weeks ago Huston finished a picture, "The Furies," then went to New York where he maintained an apartment.
 His most recent role-which won him an Academy Oscar as sup porting actor-was as the hard bitten old prospector in "The Trea- sure of Sierra Madre," which was directed by his son, John.
 His death struck Hollywood with stunning suddenness. Probably no figure in the movie town was more beloved by his fellow workers. He was always willing to help a new conner, and he counted among his intimates many of the industry's biggest names.
 But he took no part in the city's social life.

BETTER J0BLE55 pAYIDEA
 TO CAPITOL HILL

WASHINGTON, April 2 = R - President Truman got mixed and uncertain reception on Capitol Hill today for his new proposal to CD blanket 6,000,0O0 more workers un- der employment insurance and t2) pay bigger benefits to the job less for longer time.
 MT. Truman cited an average of nearly 4,50o.0O unemployed this year and said prompt action is urgent.
 Democratic leaders were not en- thusiastic at the prospect of putting the plan through Congress this year, however, and some Republicans sig nailed that they are ready to do battle against it.
 In special message to Congress from Key West. Fla. the President asked:
 l. A $30-a-week nationwide mini mum in jobless pay, plus additional money for defendants, with these payments forthcoming for each un- employed person. if needed, for 2o weeks. Benefits vary by states from S15 to s27, and duration of benefits runs from 12 weeks in some states to 26 in others.
 9 That the taxes on employers be increased to carry the enlarged program. The employer now pays the tax on the first $3,0O0 of an in- dividual workers pay. MT. Truman proposes to tax the employer on the first S4,s0O instead. The tax ranges up to percent.
 The 6.000000 new workers blan- keted under the program. if it is ap- proved. would bring the total Of covered workers to about 36000, ,000.
