The record books I list the left field foul line at Contisi key Park as 362 feet, but workmen, i who are altering the diamond. ■ found that the measurements were ! only 347 feet from home plate, to i the left field fence. The new disI tance will be 334 feet, the same disI tance as Shibe Park, where Sim- : mens*’ long wallops were more ef- ‘ fective than they were here last j season. GOLD PRICE IS BOOSTED AGAIN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ernment officials were uncertain as to the price at which this buying would begin. It has believed, however, that the foreign buying rate would be slightly above the world price and in line with the price paid domestically. Chairman Jones of the ReconI struction Finance Corporation revealed in an address last night that the Federal Reserve Bank of New York unobtrusively had been authorized to dispose of RFC notes and take foreign gold in payment. This authorization constituted the machinery for the purchases which was discussed at a White House conference Sunday night when invasion of the foreign gold market was determined upon. Jones' revelation followed announcement by Governor Morgenthau of the farm credit administration that foreign gold purchases probably would have started yesterday had it not been recalled at the last moment that All Saint s day was a holiday for the Bonk of France.

URGE LEGION WAR ON CRIME Philadelphia.—(U.R) Mobilization of American legion mem Iters in (he war against prevention of crime' was urged here in an article writ-! ten by Col. Vincent A. Carroll. Nat-1 tonal Executive Committeeman ofi the American Legion, and Assist-! ant District Attorney. "In many remote communities. !legionnaires have served effective-! jly in crime detection." Carroll i wrote. “Post members have formled posses to apprehend fleeing ; criminals and. strengthened by 1 j their military training, have given! over valuable co-operation to local i police. "But this service still could be more effective if they devoted their , 1 attention to crime prevention as, well as to detection, particularly in! the smaller communities not polic-l ed with the thoroughness ot a large city. "There, for example, they might be constantly alert to detect suspicious characters and report their presence to the civil authorities. Many crimes are averted in large cities by this unseen and generally i unrecognized vigilance of metroI politan police forces." o Marion City Fireman Accidentally Killed Marlon.
