This gentleman, whose firm now represents the Dally News In the national advertising field,! approached me with a proposition to accept a position with the Newa. In explaining to this friend why I did not desire to consider a position with the newspapor he represents in this city. I mentioned an affidavit now in the hands of James Murray, president of the local Typographical union. It haa not been in line with the policy of the Mall Tribune to publish this affidavit or participate in any way In the recent union con troversy In Medford. Today this representative tele phoned me from San Francisco, ex pressing deepest regret that oxir per sonal conversation had been misun derstood and I had been credited In Sunday's issue of the Dally Newa, with remarks I had not made. I am euro that those with whom I have had business relations during the poet eleven years have never had cause to question my business ethics or those of the organization with which I am associated.

(AP) Miss England II, the world's fastest hy droplane, lay at the bottom of the Detroit river today and with it were the hopes of Kayo Don, Qreat Brit ain's Bpeed ace, to win the Harms worth trophy race this year from the veteran Oar Wood. With one heat safely won and need ing only another victory to capture the trophy, Don was eliminated from further competition In this year's In ternational race by a double share of ill-luck. As Don was swinging wide on the second turn at the lower end of the course on the first lap his craft struck the wash of Wood's Miss America IX and turned over. Almost at the instant the English challenger foundered, It was an nounced from the Judge's stand that both Miss England II, and Wood's Miss America IX, had beaten the gun at the start by more than the per mitted five seconds and were auto matically disqualified from further competition. To complete the series of mishap. that marred yesterday's races, a loading-dock on the mainland side of the course collapsed and dropped about 100 spectators into the water. All wore rescuod except a 3-year-old boy, who was reported missing. The officials' decision was that it was "no match." Consequently', while Wood continues, to hold the trophy his name will not be engraved on It as the 1031 winner. DON'T FAIL uioncij -Aavmcj Weslinghouse!

The plant will be equipped with all the most up-to-date devices, and will work In conjunction with the great transmitting station at Nauen. The mala building was completed in 1029. It contains a large hall, with room for 40 receiving sets and additional apparatus. The majority of the receivers are equipped four- stage high frequency amplifiers and an intermediate frequency amplifier, which, designed as band-pass filter, shows a resonance similar to that of a receiver with ten circuits. Each re ceiver Is fitted with 19 valves and devices for fading compensation and current limitation. Keserve Power An Innovation has been Introduced by feeding the whole receiving In stallation exclusively from the mains by means of rotating con ver tors, in the event of an Interruption In the three phase current from the mains, a reserve accumulator battery Is automatically switched on. There Is also a 30 kw, Diesel apparatus In reserve. The huge directional aerials for re ception are the most striking feature. When flnl&hed, they will consist of a number of horizontally arranged dl poles oscillating in the same phase and Intensity. Many of the aerials are In place. Others will be ready shortly for the reception of the night waves from New York, Buenos Aires, Cairo, Ma nila, Japan and Java. Multiple aer ials used for the first time for receiv ing the 15.89 m. wave from New York, the 16.8 m. wave from Java and the 26.3 m. wave from Cairo. . WEYMOUTH, DoiseU Eng.

The local church is only a few yards from the beach where pajamas are worn by large numbers of vis iting women. The wearing of beach pajamas has been prohibited in Qurnesey. 1 Speaking from the pulpit the Rev. Coryton declared that Immodest ap parel meant a contaminated society.

SAN FRANCISCO. (UP) If you plan on living another SO years or so, and like murder stories. It would be advisable to take advantage of the depression and buy a few hundred crime books, according to Gertrude Atherton, popular novelist. For murder and crime clubs and mysterious deaths are going to cease to entertain readers, she believes. "People read for amusement, and sooner or later they will tire of this fad," she declared. Really Childish "It's always been stylish for pro fessors and the 'intellectuals' to read mystery stories. They like thtfm. I suppose, because there is so little in them requiring thought. They pro vide relaxation. But such stories are so childish, really. Surely we can Invent something better during the next 50 years . . ." she said. Sex, too, Is destined to assume a minor role in the novel and short story of the future, Mrss. Atherton insists. Not that love Interest will disappear; that can never come about she stated. Love In Minor Place Other and greater conflicts will take over the main development of character and plot.

To hope for any golden age among authors, a literature in which the mystery of human character, and the beauty of expression will replace the appeal of detective adventures and romantic lovers is rather futile.

If America does continue along its present line of development, greater color, verve, spirit, and dash may be expected in our books, with the prob- Trust no Substitute because it "looks like Kotex" MANY substitutes look like Kotex.
