Oregon Girl Wins
Florida Attention
Just when Florida's publicity men
had the nation convinced that Flor
ida had more than its share of good-
looking girls, a Florida man commits
what must amount to treason
against his own state.
The Flortdan addressed a letter to
the "press agent for the state of
Oregon," asking for the name and
address of an Oregon girl, clad In
a bathing suit of moss, whose picture
appeared In a national picture mag
azine. He said he wanted to write
to her.
The letter was delivered to news
paper correspondents here by the
mall man, who never heard of a
state press agent. No one else ever
did, either.

II. Y. Chinatown
Swept by Fire
New York. June 31 OP) The
worst Chinatown fire In 80 years
raged through two teeming Doyer
street tenements early today, tak
ing at least eight lives and menac
ing the whole area of crowded out-
ora buildings.
Excited, chattering Chinese and
white residents of the district,
routed from their beds by the clat
ter of engines responding to four
alarms and the screams and shouts
of desperate men and women flee
ing for their lives, jammed the
crooked narrow streets for hours.
The firemen, who were joined by
Mayor LaQuardlan during -the
height of the fire, worked under ex
treme difficulties In the twisting
streets. Four of the firemen were
Injured.
For half an hour after they had
sighted a man clinging to a fire
escape which threatened at any
moment to fall, the firemen worked
under a protective barrage of water
to rescue the man. Eventually he
was brought down, only to die later
In a hospital.
The fierceness of the blare and
the rapidity with which It roared
through the ancient wooden halls
and dark cubicles of the tenements
moved Mayor LaGuardla to declare
that "Chinatown must go."
It also led to the announcement
by the district attorney's office
that an Investigation would be
started Immediately to determine
responsibility for the fire and the
less of life.

Wheat Export
Subsidy Waits
Washington. June 31 OPh-Federal sj
farm officials Indicated today they
would await the outcome of a meet
ing of the International Wheat Con
ference advisory committee In Lon
don next month before deciding
whether to continue the export sub
sidy on wheat during the next mar
keting season.
The committee will consider pro
posals to divide the world wheat
markets among various exporting
nations.
Officials explained an Interna
tional agreement dividing markets
equitably would make lt possible for
competing nations to abandon such
trade practices as payment of boun
ties to encourage exports.
The United States employed a
subsidy program during the current
marketing season to place about
113.000,000 bushels of grain In for
eign markets. The program cost ap
proximately 823.500.000.
One of the factors requiring tha
use of a subsidy, officials said, was
that wheat prices averaged 6c a
bushel higher than world prices.
Ordinarily they are lower. A reason,
for the difference was the govern
ment's loan program.
Officials said should no agree
ment be reached at the London
meeting the United States would
either hsve to continue the export
subsidy or be content to sell far
less than Its "fair" share of world
markets.
