Co.
A light coupe was crushed
against a lampost and three
other vehicles-a car and two
trucks-were banged up as the
bus caromed across Second ave-
nue. and plowed through a crowd
of pedestrians.
Farrell, who was treated for
shock, said the brakes failed to
hold as the bus went down the
incline at the Manhattan end of
the greensboro Bridge.
The two persons killed-both
passengers in the coupe-were
Harry Hicks, AZ, and Miss Sheila
Heron, "a, both. of Jackson
Heights, Queens. The driver of

| Delay Is Expected
In Calling Bridges
Defense Witnesses
BY the Associated Press

/ SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 10
Defense and prosecution shifted
positions today for the second
half of the bitterly fought Harry
Bridges perjury trial.
Chief Prosecutor F. Joseph
Donohue rested yesterday in a
surprise move. He limited he
might be saving some of his best
witnesses for rebuttal.
Mr.. Donohue said prosecution
witnesses had proved the three
counts of the perjury indictment
beyond any reasonable doubt"
One of these charges is that
Bridges, longshore labor leader,
denied falsely under oath that he
was a member of the Communist
Party. That was when he became
a citizen in 1945. One accuses
Henry Schmidt and j. r. Robert
son of helping in the fraud by
supporting Bridges testimony.
The third names all three in a
conspiracy charge. Schmidt and
Robertson are officials in Bridges
CIO International Longshore-
mems and Warenousemen's Union.
Bridges said the Government
case was full of holes" The Gov
ernment did better the other two
times it tried to deport him. he
added.
The defense promised effective
attack" on testimony the Govern
ment piled up in 36 court days.
The trial began November IA.
Chief Defense Counsel Vincent
Hallinan indicated probable delay
before calling his first witness.
Before that will come legal mo-
tions and arguments seeking a di-
rected verdict of acquittal. Con-
Quoted in the flamboyant Hallinan
manner, these are pretty sure to

|0'Dwyer's S Proposal
To Lega|ize Gambling
Killed byDewey' 'sB|ast
BY the Associated Press

ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 17.-Mayor
William O'Dwyer's plan to legalize
gambling on all sports events was
a dead duck in the Legislature
today. But the proposal seemed to
become a roaring issue in the State
election next fall.
The New York Mayors contro-
versial proposal was embalmed in
the Senate and Assembly last
night after Gov. Dewey denounced
it as shocking. immoral and
indecent"
Everybody got into the act.
Three Democrats challenged Gov.
Dewey to be consistent" and call
for an end to legal pari-mutuel
betting at horse tracks.
Dewey Criticizes System.
But nobody seriously expects

Yet Fred Lee never gives the
impression of being hurried-with
Ia single exception. He will end
any conversation, leave any lunch
con table to begin a council meet
ing on time. The meeting comes
to order precisely when scheduled.
Punctuality Symbolic.
This punctuality has become
symbolic at Rockville. j. Bond
Smith, Montgomery's Democratic
chairman-and a political foe of
the Charters among those who
credit Fred Lee with attaining
businesslike administration there
The council president is inclined
to shrug off the compliments he
gets. He says he is but one of
seven councilmen, that each has
a voice and that differences arise
among the members. Sometimes,
he observes, he is in the minority
on roll call. Furthermore, the
council freely obtains outside ad-
vice.
First Year Accomplishments.
What does the council regard as
it's foremost accomplishments dur
ing the first charter year? Mr..
Lee lists these:
Personnel. The establishment of
real and workable" merit
system; also, a larger number of
employees qualified for their jobs.
Finances. A thorough-going
survey which serves as a guide for

January %, 1929, also delayed
the train bringing him to the
theater, where he was concert
master of the orchestra.
On arrival at Union Station,
after being snowbound for 10
hours on his way from recital
at Mercersburg, Pa, Mr.. Feldman
learned from the newspapers that
among the 98 persons killed in
the disaster, IL Of them were mu-
sicians, and friends of his: all oc-
cupants of the orchestral pit he
had been scheduled to share with
them.
| Mr.. Feldman, who lives at 1888
Ogden street NV, also explained
at last nights free concert how
he came to suggest the name the
National Symphony Orchestra has
today. -
Other sNames Discarded. 81
The 58-year- -old musician was
violist with the National String
Quartet and also with the infant
organization. In 1890 he attended
the groups early meetings, and at
one Of them he suggested the
name Of the National Symphony
Orchestra, instead of names like
Capital Symphony Orchestra" or
washington Symphony Orches-
tra," which had been discussed.
The organizational officials de-
cided his was the best name and
adopted it. In 1881 there was a
reorganization, and the orchestra
officially was founded by DR.. Hans
Kinder.
While with the National String
Quartet Mg. Feldman, in October,
1925, presented the first concert
ever given in the Library of Con-
gress' Coolidge Auditorium. He is
a graduate of the celebrated Con-
servatory at Odessa, Russia.
Mr.. Feldman, who has been
through 20 of the symphony's sus-
tanning fund campaigns. believes
the current effort to raise $190, 900
Is the most important Of them all.
He stressed particularly that the
free concerts for children, inaugu-
rated this year, are made possible
only through public support of
the orchestra.
Campaign Explained.
During the intermission Bill
Coyle, promotion director of The
Star, explained the sustaining fund
campaign to the Armstrong audi
ence.
He said the year. round aim of
the National Symphony Orchestra
is to provide music for every one"
at prices all can afford, and that
these presentations include per-
formances by world-famous solo,
lists and guest conductors.
But since all these musical Of
ferings cannot be supported on
box Office receipts alone, it is nee
essary to ask the public to con-
tribute $4,000 as a sustaining
fund, it was pointed out.
Last nights program, conduct
ed by Howard Mitchell, was as

that to happen. even though Gov
Dewey said he had personal
doubts about the wisdom or the
morality of this system"
However, in a nine-point, 1900
word message to the Legislature
blasting Mayor O'Dwyer's proposal
Gov. Dewey added:
1T (pari-mutuel betting) is con-
fined to those who are actually
able to be present at the track
and therefore is not a lure dan
gled before all people in all walks
of life and near every home"
Many Republicans joined Gov.
Dewey in castigating Mayor
O'Dwyer. However, one Upstate
COP Assemblyman, Harry A.
Reoux of Warrensburg, said illegal
gambling was wide open" in New
York City and in many Upstate
communities. He said it was "a
shame on the State of New York. :"

The True Church Is A

chair or waiting at the emperor's
table. God Is no respecter of per-

Christian soldiers would not al

Christian slaves would be sold
down the river; that the restless
feet which brought their owners
to Rome would take them away
again. Great cities are like that.
Putting down Christianity In
Rome was mot like putting .

Pulpwcod Producers: Contractors.
Timberiand Owners.

A tree that grows from four to
five inches in diameter increases
ia per cent in volume and value.
If it grows at the rate of one
inch in three years, which it
should do if properly spaced, it
earns the owner 38 per cent in
terest per year. At the same rate
OF growth, a tree growing from
six to seven inches earns % per
cent per year. In growing from
eight to nine inches, a tree earns
IL per cent per year, and one
growing from ten to IL inches
earns nine per cent a year.
As a stand increases in size,
the trees will naturally crowd
each other. At such times, GER
tain trees should and must be
removed to make room for the
others if a good growth rate is
to be maintained Thinning
should be repeated to each stand
at least every five years. At such
times, badly suppressed, rough,
crooked, diseased trees should be
removed, an the best, straight
clean trees reserve for additional
growth.
As has been indicated, the pulp
wood contractor and the timber
land owner both make more mo-
ney for larger trees. Both gain
by saving the small, straight,
clean ard w~ell-spaced trees. Both
will get a greater return per acre
over a greater number Of years
vnrough partial cutting.
