tices under the Taft-Hartley law.

tion nationally in its earlier stages
when publication by the Portland

tion of most of the stores ad-
vertising with the newspaper.

NEW YORK. May Cts q
long way from Brooklyn to the
fortress Of Correg1dor IN the
Philippines. but along Barley
street in Brooklyn 1t never will
seem 80 far away.
1t was in the little two-family
house at No. sos, eight years ago
today, that Mrs. Minnie Strobing
received the moving farewell from
her 22-year-old son Irving-the
famous last message from Corregi-
dor.
Irving Strobing was a corporal
In the Signal Corps and q radio
operator. After his last official
message had been sent he filled in
with his own unofficial account OF
the descent into defeat.
The message was sent May 6,
1912, a few minutes before Gen.
Jonathan Wainwright surrendered
to the Japanese.
It was patchy and profane, but
it spoke with a force that stirred
the Nation when the Army made
1t public. The urgent dots and
dashes squealed in Honolulu:
1--WE are waiting for God only
knows what lots Of heavy
fighting going on . Shells were
dropping all night faster than
hell. Damage terrific. Too much
for guys to take They are pill
ing dead and wounded in our
tunnel 80.
At last, Just before the first
Japanese tank appeared at the
tunnel entrance, the corporal bent
over the key again:
MY name is Irving Strobing.
Get this to my mother. Mrs. Minnie
Strobing, COS Barley street,
Brooklyn, New York. My love
to Pa, Joe, Sue. Mac, Garry. Joyce
and Paul. Also to all family and
friends. God bless 'em all. Hope
they will be there when 7 come
home.
Tell Joe wherever he is to give
'en hell for us!"
Another God bless you." and
that was all. Corregidor was silent.
A radio operator In Honolulu wept
over his key. A Signal Corps
colonel in the War Department in
Washington walked away from q
teletype machine. drawing his
handkerchief, and slammed the
door of his office.
That was eight years ago.
In October of 1945, Strobing
walked into 605 Barley street.
Then began a welcome and a
round Of publicity that for time
irritated him.
He was a regular Army man
and he stayed in the Army after
the war-even went overseas
again, to Paris for a while.
Strobing had spent 80 months
IN Japanese prison camps. He had
dropped from 140 to SO pounds be-
fore the liberation. And when he
told doctor he felt fine. the doc
tor said Let me know what hap
pens 20 years from now"
Well, it's happened. Strobing

DUMAS STORY OF BLACK MAGIC E
 CAPITOL MYSTERY

If the ghost of the fabulous char latan. Cagliostro, is still lowering around. he must have gotten a big Kick out of what went on in Rome recently when Edward Small pro- duced the film spectacle, Black Magic" starring Orson Welles and Nancy Guild.
 The film is based on Alexander Dumas famous character, Cagliostro from Memoirs of a Physician" and tells the story of a man whose hypnotic powers kept all Europe in a political and social turmoil dur ing the later part of the 18th Gen. tury United Artists made "Black Magic" which opens at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
 Gregory Ratoff, who directed Black Magic" shot number of important scenes in front of the Church of Trinita dei Monti, perched on top of the famous and romantic staircase of Piazza di
 Spagna. This site, chosen for the
 wedding of Cagliostro, played by
 Welles, and Lorenza, played by
 Nancy Guild. rates with the Coli scum and St. Peters as the most
 frequented spots in the Eternal City.
 By picking Trinita dei Monti, Di-
 rector Ratoff had both the advan- tage of using one of the most beau-
 tiful and well known spots in the
 world, and also being faithful to his
 tory. The scene will look, on the
 screen, exactly as it did in the eighteenth century, when the action
 takes place.
 The Piazza di Spagna staircase is
 crowded with memories. The famous
 English poets, Keats and Shelley, lived in a house at its feet, while
 the late Italian poet and patriot,
 Gabrielle D'Annunzio, and the Ger
 man philosopher Frederick Nietsche,
 lived in a building overlooking the
 staircase.
