Marriage Announcement
Is Declared Unfounded

On Sunday. March IL, The Star
published a society item purport-
ing to be an announcement by Mr..
and Mrs. Robert M. Johnston, 3009
Fifth street Sc, OF the marriage
of their daughter, Joanna Carole,
to Mr.. Robert Franklin Sagle. The
announcement, as received by The
Star, bore the signature, Mrs. Rob-
ert Johnston.
Miss Johnston has informed The
Star that the marriage did not
take place and that the announce
ment was sent to The Star by a
girl friend. Mrs. Johnston denies
the signature is hers. On July 20
last an application for a marriage
license for the couple was made
in Municipal Court. The applica-
ton bore the signature, Joanna
Carole Johnston. Miss Johnston
states that she did not make the
application and that she could not
have signed it because she was in
Florida on that date. Mr.. Sagle
states that the application for the
marriage license was made with
out his knowledge and confirms
the fact that the marriage did not

the change that has come about
in the matter of women's head

ASTROLOGER SEES SHORT WORLD WAR III

SINGAPORE, (P)-United Ma tions forces will emerge victorious and bring peace to Korea by Jan. 1851, predicts M. S. Sharma, in- terna tionally known astrologer.
 Among other predictions made by the astrologer on his arrival in Singapore on a study of Southeast Asia was the third world war. He said it will start in Berlin some time between March and Septem- Der of 1851. The war will last only two years, nine months and ten days and Stalin will probably commit suicide, the astrologer added.
 After World War III, he said, the whole world will enjoy a pe- riod of peace and prosperity. Pro- lessor Sharma is sure that Chi nese Natoinalists will land on the Chinese mainland by July, 1851. He predicted heavy fighting there.
 One of his earlier predictions, however, proved to be wrong. He had prophesied that the Missouri candidate, Harry s. Truman,

Potato Growers Will Have Govt. Price Supports

WASHINGTON, (P)-Most po- tato growers can count on con- tinued government price supports of this years crop, despite efforts to halt them in a move to prevent future surpluses.
 A combination of 28 Republi- cans and Is Democrats Friday night beat down proposal of Senate leader Lucas D.-IllJ to re- move potato price props until Congress and growers agreed to rigid planting and marketing con- trols.
 Instead the Senate approved 43 to 35 a plan which its author, Sen ator Aiken (R.-VtD, said would continue potato price supports in almost all commercial areas un- less growers reject marketing agreements and orders"
 Lucas had threatened earlier to keep Senators in session far into the night to complete action on the potato price props as well as the cotton acreage measure to which it was attached.
 But after defeat of his proposal he postponed final action on the farm bill until today.

Husband Will Tes- tify In "Mercy Death'' Staying

MANCHESTER, N. H., (F) - Counsel for pr. Hermann N. San derS threw a block Friday against state efforts to prove that the husband of the woman he is charged with staying had nothing to do with her mercy" death.
 The block was thrown up short ly before the murder trial of the 41-year-old country doctor re- cessed for the. week end. Dr. San der is charged with killing Mrs. Abbie Borroto, 59, cancer doomed patient, with lethai air injections.
 Chief of defense counsel Louis E. Wyman bounced to his feet the instant Sheriff Thomas F.. O'Brien testified the prosecution had signed statement from Borroto.
 The statement said that Bor- roto claimed he had nothing to do with Dr. Sanders in this"
 Testimony had been presented earlier quoting Dr. Sander as say ing he yielded to Borroto's plead ings to end his wife's suffering even if it meant eliminating her life"
 Judge Harold E. Westcott sus- tained Wyman's objections and ordered the sheriff's testimony stricken from the record.
 Wyman told newsmen later that Borroto would be called as a de- fense witness if the state doesn't place him on the stand

 Should Russia parachute troops and take some of our mili- tary fields, they could not main- tain a line of supply, which would be a minimum of LOGO miles long.

Bartlett States Opinion of Closing Marks Air Base

"As Delegate in Congress from Alaska I have a responsibility, it seems to me, in conveying to you my thoughts on this despite the absolute conclusion which appears to have been reached by the De- partment of the Air Force regard ing Marks Base," Delegate Bart lett declared this week to Secre- tary of the Air Force Symington when he was informed that Marks Air Force Base at Nome will be inactivated.
 The Department of National Defense announced in January that the field at Nome would be closed, but action was withheld at the request of the Delegate and Governor Gruening for a review of the situation at high policy lev els.
 "The United States Air Force personnel stationed at Marks Air Force Base, Nome," Secretary Symington stated in making the final decision known to Delegate Bartlett, "have been limited for some time to those required to op- crate an airway station and an Arctic Indoctrination School. These forces have little or no com bat capability and their with draWal will have no appreciable effect on the defense of Alaska. "
 In response, Delegate Bartlett pointed out: "We are said to be engaged in a cold war. A cold war is carried on in many ways. Build ing up of morale among people disposed to be friendly and giving them economic assistance are cer- tainly two approaches. Concomi- tantly, the United States, I should think, cannot well afford to leave itself undefended physically. l charge that the withdrawal from Marks Air Force Base at Nome could we'll be termed a confession of weakness on our part and may so be regarded not only among our own people but those living in other lands. It is not so much that Marks Base is a great mili- tary installation but it possesses a significance aside from size and strength in that it is our only mil itary establishment on the entire Arctic coast. It is only minutes away from Siberia by plane, and it is probably entirely safe to say that no bases are being abandon cd on the Siberian coast"
