BECEIi (United Press Staff Correspondent) MOSCOW, June 21 (U.R) A Mer ciless campaign for extermination of "traitors" spread throush vast Soviet Russia from the rtnltic and Black eess to the Pacific today. Hundreds of men were involved al ready. Newspapers which denounced long lists of men ns wreckers, spies, traitors, Trotskyists, Bcoundrels, ban dits, rightists, nationalists and en emies of the people ended their blast with the significant "and others." It was announced that A. (1. Cher riakov, president of the White Rus sia Republic, had committee suicide "for personal and family reasons." But coincldently it was revealed that the communist party executive for White Russia had sent him a note askinir him why he permitted "trait ors" to sidetrack plans for two im portant military inventions. Criticism extended even to Valery Mezhlauk, commissar for heavy In dustry in the cabinet of the Soviet Union. Travdn, official newspaper organ of the communist pnrty, warned that it was time for him to introduce "Bolshevist order" In the automo tive and subsidiary industries. No Execution Figures As in the case of arrests, there was no means of obtaining authentic fimires on executions. There was only one specific announcement for any area the Far r;ast, wnere me newspnper Pacific Star announced that 04 men had been executeo. The very announcement of cbargeH against scores of men named in newspapers meant that they must fnrn firing squads. Names of prominent men dismissed or arrested mounted hourly. O. II. Krutov, president of the Far East ern republic, was relieved of his duties yesterday and expelled from tho central executive committee of his government. No reason was given. President Larin of the Black Sea executive committee was de nounced as an enemy of the people. Kal-monlvich, until recently com missar for state farms of the whole union, was arrested as a wrecker along with others of almost equal prominence. The editor of one of the biggest newspnpers, Zviadza, in White Rus sia, was denounced as a Trotskyist. In the automotive industry the pro duction chief was warned In news papers that eight days remained to him to get a flow of automobile parts started or to face trial. Executives of chemical, rubber, textile and other industries were warned that they must increase the efficiency of their units. Some were denounced ns Trot skyists. The officials of a big vet erinary hospital were charged with sending plague germs Instead of medicines to farms. FLAPPER FANNY By Sylvia .. . . . . COPi. 1MJ IV NtA St M VICE. IMC. T. M- Mfl- 0- MT.

Hurdy-Gurdy Vanishes From The Sidewalks Of New York; Reason? Anti-Noise Campaign Too Much By JOSEPH L. MTLER (United Press Stnff Correspondent) NEW YORK, June 18 (U.R) The hunly-frurdy has vanished from the nidewnlks of New York. One of the last of the picturesque music makers brushed with the low for his clan and the right to grind out tunes Appreciated or not. His op ponent was Mayor F. H. LaGuardin and Joe Costinori, the hurdy-gurdy man, lost. Today he shrugged bis shoulders and said: 'I sell da organ; now I hare no more work." Too inarticulate in his adopted tongue to express the melancholy he felt, he flung aside bis Italian lnn guage newspaper, strode once across the room and back in bis thick-soled black shoes and sat down on & worn little sofa thnt creaked beneath his 200 pounds. No Organ "I don't, have da orsran." he said. "Now, I don't have even no peace." Joe was defeated and it enme about like this: When Mayor LaGuardia's anti- noise ordinance went into effect Jan. 1, 1035, Joe nnd nearly 150 other men who supported their families on a gleaning of nickels, flung at them either in appreciation of their reedy melodies or In the hope they would go away, protested. Opera singers, rjidio performers and thousands of other New Yorkers pleaded for the hand organ men who for 60 years had been as much a part of the city's personality as re trains and soot. A petition carrying 5,000 signatures was sent to the mayor. L Giwrdia regretfully denied their suit. The hurdy-gurdy, he said, had "outlived Its purpose." Once it wnc the only means of bringing melody to the masses. Now the phonograph, the radio and public concerts were better. Besides, the music of the hurdy gurdieR, like that of the pied piper, had a masicnl and baneful offect upon children. It caused them to abandon care and dance in the streets, where they were in dnnper of being run down by automobiles. j Outweigh Sentiment i These considerations, the mayor wrote, "outweish mere sentiment." Most of Joe's colleagues ecrappedj their hand organs, found other wprk or went on relief. Joe and perhaps a dozen others were defiant. In Little Italy they played "O Sole Mio." In the Irish precincts the tunes were "My AVild Irish Rose" and "When Irish Eyes nre Smiling." Joe had been trudging the city's streets for .15 years, ever since he came from Italy, and he refused to submit to a law which insulted his music by calling it noise. A policeman arrested nnd took him to Hnrlem magistrate's court where he was given a suspended sentence. But Joe kept on cranking. Defiantly, on May 6, he wheeled his hurdy Knrdy to a stand in the shadow of the mayor's residence. The wheezy notes of "It's a Long Way to Tippernry" and "Santa Lu cia" assniled his honor's ears. The complnint was signed by the mayor himself. Back in court Joe gazed at the judpe and snorted: "I sell da organ." That satisfied the court and Joe was dismissed. Today he sat in his little parlor and considered how he would support his family of six on the $13 a week which the emergency relief bureau says he will receive.

JP) Alaska's rambling Black Rapids glacier, its movement speeded by hot weather, pushed to the edfje of the Big Delta Tiver today while three lakes formed on the surface of the big ice mass. Travelers who viewed the glacier from the Richardson highway said it is now- less- than a mile from the Black Rapids roadhouse, situated across the river. Although Pilot E. E. Parmenter re ported photographs showed the glacier moved 400 feet in two days, others said it has Bince slowed down and no alarm was expressed. Another airman, Harold Gillam from Cordova, flew over the glacier and reported three lakes formed on its surface from melting ice and snow. One, he said, Is large enough to land plane. Some thought the lakes might over flow suddenly, perhaps causing a flood. but pilots recalled similar lakes had formed on the Endicott glacier at one time and disappeared. At Fairbanks, weather observers said the maximum temperature of 01 degrees Saturday, equalling the record of June 10, was the highest here in IS years.
