with short-tempered members.
' Despite its bitter tenor. In

rel' Jiad not appreciably dimmed
Churchill's popular lustre. It was
cut short by a speaker's ruling
'after the Independent Arthur
Hopklnson had called the prime
minister, by indirection, a "liar."
In his brief statement Church

of the Swinton committee "not
fitted for public discussion,' least
of all In - time of war.
Refuses to Discuss
Churchill started the exchange
by refusing to discuss details of
the mysterious committee's secret
investigation of fifth column ac
Urities. He said he always had beUered
fifth column dangers were "ex
aggerated" and that he sow was
satisfied they had been reduced
to proper proportions."
Then the storm broke.
Laborite James Max ton de
manded to know who was going
to "watch the watchers."
Other members declared there
was wide apprehension because
Lord Swinton was selected chair
man of the committee to cope
with fifth columnists.
Criticism Recalled
(Lord Swinton was air secre
tary from 1935 to early 1938,
when he was ousted amid British
criticism of his failure to rearm
the nation adequately. y
Said Hopklnson: "We earfnot
understand why there is so much
mystery about this ..."
Angrily, the prime minister re
plied: "If Hopklnson had paid
half the attention to the full and
Tery respectable statement I just
hare made as he did when he
was accustomed to obstruct my
effort to get this country defend
ed before the war, he wouldn't
hare asked -that -question."
Furious, Hopklnson--asked the
speaker's protectkn"against
gross and lying innuendo."
" Churchill snapped back that he
would not withdraw; indeed, he
said,' he would send. Hopklnson a
copy of a previous intervention
by: that member "in which he did
his very utmost to discredit me."

Extensive Damage Claimed
With Toll of Britiih
Plane Set at 98
BERLIN, 15.-1ip)-Ger-many
threw the weight of her
aerial hosts directly at the great
throbbing heart of Britain's world
empire late today as warplanes
swirled orer London where the
British admitted Croydon airport
was bombed and smashed hard
at the broad Tilbury wharres
which stretch down the Thames
from the capital.
The attack, pressed home
through a veritable hell of anti
aircraft fire amid wheeling Brit
ish pursuit planes, was part of
a synchronised onslaught upon
all of Britain's vital centers and
up and down her coasts from far
northeast ' Scotland to extreme
southwest England Wales, said
DNB, official German news
agency.
' DNB did not say definitely that
London waa bombed, but declared
"the entire Thames valley wit
nessed the methodical, irresistible
German air attacks which threat
en all military establishments
with destruction."
Claim 98 Score
It first listed 36 British planes
destroyed as against four Ger
man ..but later increased the fig
ures, respectively, to 98 and 29.
German fliers reported-they shot
down five balloons- and put out
of commission eight planes on the
ground.
(The British listed 144 Ger
man and 27 British planes lost.)
' The raiders scattered their
bombs amid the sprawling build
ings of the big Vlckers Arm
strong armament works at Heb
burn; at Sheerness, Chatham and
Rochester, locations of navy
yards and arsenals; at the big
eastern toort of Newcastle-on-
Tyne; : and at the southeast!
"bridgeheads" of Dover and Folk
stone, the agency said.
The airplane plants of Bristol
were threatened, and Wales, to
the southwest, got its share, said
DNB.
Airports were a particular ob
ject of attack, those at Hawkinge
and Lympne in the southeast
shore area were scenes of par
ticularly bitter battles with the
British defenders.
At Hawkinge alone, 11 British
planes were shot down by the
Htm rschmitts protecting the
German bombing squadron, said
DNB in claiming victory for the
Germans.
Airports Damaged
Repeatedly big German battle
bombers swooped out of the
clouds to dump deadly tons of
high explosive and incendiary
bombs on the Hawkinge hangars,
the agency related. At Lympne, it
said, hangars and runways were
smashed and the ground guns fell
silent.
A German battle squadron
caught the English by surprise
at the Driffield airport north of
Hull, said DNB, In a raid so swift
that "anti-aircraft was not able
to do much and. before the Brit
ish fighters could Interfere the
attack was over." It a a 1 d the
hangars and bsrraeks were de
stroyed. The German air fleet hummed
over London at S p. m., DNB de
clared, and anti-aircraft fire made
a eloud over the city. It gave no
word whether London itself was
bombed, but the British admitted
that Croydon airport was at
tacked and Croydon Is within
greater London, a scant 10 miles
from the traffic-choked centers
of Charing Cross and Piccadilly
Circus.
At Tilbury, a dozen miles from
the Thames, which Is one great
mass of dockyards, warehouses,
naval plants and armament and
munitions works, the German
agency said the nasi airmen
"calmly followed their course,
dropping bombs with deadly ac
curacy on important objectives."
It acknowledged that "at Til
bury there was a lively air bat
tle." In fact, so heavy was the Brit
ish defense that DNB likened it
to an "iron curtain" but said the
nazi airmen pierced It
The attack on the Vickers plant
at Hebburn was executed this aft
ernoon by 3 5 Dornier bombers,
and- heavy explosions were ob
served, said DNB.
North Scotland Hit
A number of airports In the
Northumberland district also suf
fered heavily, and even the north
of Scotland was hit hard.
Airports in the Aberdeen and
Moray Firth sections were bom
barded, and a shipping convoy
-off Peterhead was attacked, said
DNB, but It did not discrose the
jesults.
The new destructive vigor of
the attacks on Britain followed a
day and night in which bad
Weather hampered the incessant
raiding to some extent, said the
German high command.
Nevertheless, It announced,
troop concentrations at 'the big
military camp of Aldershot were
attacked, . and. port facilities and
electrical plant and munitions
works were "effectively bombed"
In Cardiff, Weston, Portland,
Worcester and Salisbury, the an
nouncement said.
The German campaign is still
on schedule, it declared, tor ad
vance plans had made full allow-,
ance for some bad Weather.

Thames Attack
merchant ' cruiser T Transylvania
waa sunk by a Geman U-boat,
the high, command also reported.
(The British had reported this
previously.) , . ;
Meanwhile, authorised German
sources vigorously denied reports
that German, parachutists had
landed In England. Such reports
were declared to be "pure ' fan
tasy." DNB said the Germans attack
ing Scotland, apparently from
Scandinavian bases, had no trou
ble because- anti-aircraft fire was
ineffective.
Mealtime Workers
Benefit by Rule
Longshoremen to Receive
Time and a Half for
Meal-Time Work
EUGENE, Ore., Aug. 1-VP)
Longshoremen forced to work
through the mid-shift meal hour
are entitled to a penalty wage
of .more than double the base
wage for that hour, Wayne Morse,
coast maritime arbiter, decided
today.
In other words, the workmen
must be paid 12.10 for that per
iod, which Is time and a halt of
the regular time and a half over
time rate, on a basis of 95 cents
an hour straight time. If they
are held beyond the meal hour,
the regular time and a half rate
would apply, Morse ruled..
Morse made his ruling on a
complaint filed by the longshore
men's union last July 10. It con
tended that its contract provided
for psyment of time and a half
of the straight or overtime rate,
aa the case might be, for all time
worked during mealtime, if the
meal period came five hours aft
er the shift started.
Morse did not make the award
retroactive, he said, because the
language of the contract is am
biguous. 'c

Unearth Skeleton
AtHistoric
Affirms Gold Rush Legend
of 60 Yean Ago; Man
- ,Vt Shot fa Head
PULLMAN. Wash., .Aug. 18-P)
A skeleton 'was found today by
workmen in the "Lost Wheelbar
row" mine on Gold Hill in Latah
county, ' Idaho, some 20 miles
northeast of Pullman, providing
new evidence to substantiate a
legend of gold rush days.
Two prospectors made' a rich
strike on Gold Hill 00 years ago
and only one returned to civili
sation, . according to the legend.
He had 120,000. ,
This man. came back., after. 20
yean to relocate the . mine, but
old trails had vanished and his
search waa futile. He said a wheel
barrow made of whisky barrel
staves should have marked the
mine, and from this vanished bar
row the lost bonania took Its
name.
Last fall Dr. C. Landis.Treich-.
ler of .Palonse, Wash., found the
mine, and . its wheelbarrow. Ha
found also two human bones and
a rusted Wfle, and a few months
later workmen located the rich
vein of gold ore lost for C 0 years.
The skull of the skeleton un
earthed today had been punctured
by a bullet which entered from
the right side and tore a large
hole in the left
