loan applications for such purposes
to the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation. Another is for the
General Services Administration
to contract for the purchase of
output, thereby guaranteeing a
market for ores and metals. This
would be for stockpiling and other
defense needs.
Another method of fostering
defense production, whether of
ores or finished products, is
through Federal tax benefits
when plant facilities are ex-
panded for defense purposes. Mr..
Symington announced yesterday
that application forms and pro-
cedures are ready for those who
seek authority to amortize emer-
gency facilities over a five-year
period for tax purposes. The tax
payer, it is said, benefits through
accelerated amortization.
The applications are handled
by the NSRB and finally certified
by it after the appropriate agency
makes recommendations.

against Judge Fine than Senator
Myers does against Gov. Duff,
Pennsylvania voters are not given
to splitting their tickets. They
vote straight. Also it is rather
difficult operation to split a ticket
here and many voters hesitate to
attempt it. So it looks as though
either the Duff Fine ticket or the
Myers-Dilworth ticket will survive
or fall as entities.
The Democrats hold four of the
six congressional districts in the
Philadelphia area. The Repub-
licans claim they will pick up at

to take more. The Democrats, If
they should make a real sweep in

Boy Scouts Rescue
Baltimore Youth From
Great Falls Rapids

A Baltimore youth was saved
from being swept over the rocks
at Great Falls yesterday by Boy
Scouts of Troop 241, Chevy Chase,
Md.
Six scouts and Joseph Johansen,
1929 Jennings road, Kensington,
Md, assistant scout master, pulled
the youth to safety with rope
made from their belts. In the eX-
citement, however. they forgot to
get the youths name.
Mr.. Johansen said he and the
scouts were hiking at Great Falls
when they heard cries for help.
They climbed down a steep cliff
and found another boy holding On
to the youth, who had fallen into
the water.
I'VE pulled him from the water"
Mr.. Johansen related, but the
youth was so cold and weak from
his experience that he was unable
to climb back up the steep cliff
the only way to get back to the
trail. So the scouts made a rope of
their belts"
The youth had fallen in trying
to jump to a small island, Mr.. Jo-
hansen explained. The scouts
scouts crossed to this island, tied
the rope belt to the rescued youth,
pulled him back into the river and
then on to the island.
Scouts making the rescue were:
David Bond, 1900 Lynnbrook
drive. Bethesda; John Carpenter,
2738 Mckinley street NV; Nelson
Dorny, 6812 Oakland street, Chevy
Chase; Osmond Hyde, A Balti-
more street, Kensington; Melvin

Spring, and John Pursey, 9 Alber-
marie street NV.
AL they know about the youth
they rescued was that he was a
member of a church party which
had come from Baltimore for a
picnic at Great Falls.

Increase in Need Expected.
A marked increase in the need
for aviation gasoline is expected
next year. An eventual cut in the
octane rating of auto fuel is there
fore not ruled out entirely.
Meanwhile, defense agencies
wrestled with the problem of pro-
ducing more aluminium. The Ma

that it is considering cutting down
the civilian consumption of alu-
minum, nickel and copper by 20
to 80 per cent.
Chairman w. Stuart Symington

ducers last week. Increase of pro-

delphia. In some measure, how
ever, this issue is offset by similar
charges against Democratic ad-
ministration in Pittsburgh, where
a grand jury is also at work, fer
reting out charges of graft.
The Democratic candidate for
governor is both attractive and
dynamic. He is a combat veteran
of both World Wars. He left Yale
at the age of 19 to enlist in the
Marine Corps and fought through
the scissors and Belleau Woods
campaigns. He suffered a shat
tered left arm in the last battle
trying to rescue two wounded
Americans. 1t did not prevent,
however, his playing football and
rowing when he returned to Yale
after the war. I
In 1912, he was q successful
lawyer 43 years old, with fam
lily including six children and
two step-children. He pestered
the brass in Washington until he
was finally commissioned a cap
tain in the Marines. He served on
Guada1canal. was awarded the
Silver Star for gallantry and hon.
orably discharged with the rank of
major.
In 1947, Mr.. Dilworth was the
Democratic candidate for mayor of
Philadelphia, and although he lost
by $4,000 votes, he threw scare
into the Republican organization
and city government, with charges
of all kinds of corruption. He con-
tinued his attacks after that elec-
ton. In May, 1948. the head of the
amusement tax division of the re-
ceiver of taxes committed suicide.
He had been unable to cover up a
shortage of some 5000, GOO in hisI
accounts. He left a note implica- |
ing fellow employees. A special
grand jury went to work and ex-
posed graft and extortion in de- |
partments of the city government. |
and reported that more than S13,-l
000 900 was stolen or lost because
of ineffciency or dishonesty.
Aided by Republican Press.
This was Mr.. Dilworth's oppor-
tunity. Last year he became the
candidate for city treasurer. He
was aided in the fight by Repub-
lican newspapers here. More than
$4,000 voters went to the polls, an
all-time high for a. city election.
He won by 10000 votes. i
He is conducting hard hitting
campaign against Judge Fine, who
was smeared by Republican at
tacks in the primary campaign,
charging the judge with being
political boss in a racket-ridden
county. Further, Mr.. Dilworth and
the Democrats are claiming that
Gov. Duff picked Judge Fine as
his running mate through a deal
with machine bosses in Delaware
and Philadelphia Counties in order
to win against the Grundy organ
ization. Gov. Duff sees red and
declares these Democratic charges
lie" when they are mentioned
to him.
Judge Fine is veteran of World
War 1 and former adherent of
the late Gov. Clifford Pinchot, who
appointed Judge Fine to the
bench. He was repeatedly re-
elected judge, and Gov. Duff ap-
pointed him to the Superior Court,
second highest tribunal in the
state. In the Statewide election
IN 1947, Judge Fine was elected
Judge by a majority of more than
100000 votes.

 WILDLIFE SERVICE

The Fish and Wildlife Service is getting four new-at least new to them-airplanes ito replace four craft beyond repair, it was an nounced today by Clarence Rhode regional head of the service.
 On top of this, they're getting two harbor craft five years old to re- place two service vessels 35 years old.
 Delivery is being made today, as the fiscal year ends, he said-but the planes are on the east coast, and the boats are in Seattle. He expects delivery in Alaska within a few days, however. One plane is near Seattle and he'll go after it himself. he said. The others range from St. Petersburg, Fla, to New York.
 The harbor craft are 70-foot yes sels, which will do patrol work and carry freight such as weir materials
 The airplane situation is so tight now that the service is literally fly ing on wing and prayer. Rhode sighed. Already one of his pilots has flown 40 hours this week, which is half his monthly allowance. On top of this, he's been working nights on other ships to get them in the air.
 The four new aircraft are used GrummanS, he said.

 Washington hoped the Soviet Union would make no move to ai l North Korea directly. A Soviet note rejected a US. appeal to Russia to use her influence in North Ko- req to stop the war. Its tone. how ever. was not as violent as might have been expected, and American officials cautiously read into it a Russian desire to keep, for the re- cord. a hands-off policy in the war involving the Soviet satellite North Koreans.
