BRITISH TAKE JOO PRISONERS Sporadic Eightintf Continues In Parts Os Old .Jerusalem Jerusalem. Oct. 20. — (U.R) —British troops today rounded up 300 Arab prisoners in old Jerusalem, where they had lifted a two-day fcbel siege by storming through tiie gates of the 16th century walls. The prisoners denied they were rebels, but they were questioned, examined for shoulder brutes that might have been made by rifle butts, and held for identification. Sporadic fightitg continued in the Moslem quarter, where the rebels were making a last stand. The toll of the British occupation so far had been nine Arabs killed and 16 persons wounded, including tow British policemen and a soldier. Troops and British police controlled the Christian, Jewish and Arm qruetrs taneia nann ieaowfh Armenian quarters and they had > WAN TE D ■ Steam, Vapor, Hot Water, A Stoker.

The prisoners were taken to David's citadel, site of the fortlfl- ( I alien 111.11 David built ill the Hill century before Christ after he hud I conquered the Jebusites and de- ; livered Jerusalem for the first time to the Hebrews. ’ The rebels were fighting with modem arms rifles and bombs—but with the strategy of antiquity. Military patrols, baffled by their sudden disappearances and reappearances around the vicinity of their mosques, found them using underground passages dating back to Biblical times. One passage, leading from Solomon's quarries, was found to be an avenue of escape for the rebels. There were 5.4)00 soldiers in the Jerusalem area, and several hundred policemen and Jewish supernumeraries. trying to restore order. They were stationed at Mount of Olives, Bethlehem, and other strategic points. Nevertheless the situation was so far out of control and so dangerous That the passport office was crowded with applicants. anxious to leave Palestine quickly. Them ilitary occupation had succeeded in lifting the siege and restoring a semblance .of order to all but the Moslem quarter, but the rebels’ guerilla tactics gave the British at best a perilous hold on the Jerusalem area, and left rebels still in control of almost two-thirds I of Palestine. o — Turkish President Showing Improvement Istanbul.

RAIN AND SNOW FOR NEXT WINTER How much rain and snow are we going to have next winter? Thousands the country over . have asked this question. So, this week we give you a special map showing the precipitation I over the United States from the first of November to the first of April The letters indicate that farmers in sections of the Middle West are worried over the possibilities of another drought in 1939. They point out that many streams are below stage for this season, which indicates that subsoil moisture is depleted, and If there should fail to be heavy rain- j fall during the winter, dry condi- ; tions are a possibility next spring. Our map shows the course of I the Gulf Stream of the Air during I the winter. It is much simplified. of course, but attempts to i j show the general movements of I future wet winds. This Gulf | 1 Stream of the Air is our source ■ lot rain After crossing the Ati lantic Ocean it moves over the I continent of North America. I Most of the time it flows via the I ( Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of ■ Mexico, then from Alabama to Maryland, and along the New > England coast to Newfoundland. I and from there to Europe. At times it swings across Mexico to : the Pacific Ocean and southern 1 California. We have worked out the two: general paths that the Gulf: Stream of the Air will take this winter. One path, as you can see | i from the map. swings north out of the Caribbean region toward | 1 Georgia, then turns sharply back | on itself and flows up the Atlan-1 tic Coast, mostly offshore. This! will give good rain over the south-. i eastern states, and moderately ■ | good rain along the northern At-1 lautic seaboard. Whan the Gulf-t i Stream of the Air swings farther) west it passes over the Mexican tableland over the Pacific Ocean ■ and back to Sonora. Mexico, and I then through Arizona. New Mex-; ico. southern California and obliquely to the region north of Lake Superior. This leaves a ! strip of strong evaporation, with ’ 1 probably insufficient precipitation, from Louisiana to Ohio. ' ' There will be another area of ex-i cessive evaporation in Washington.

MODEL AND STORY OF SATURN Long range weather fans! Telescope fans! Here is a chance to make a model of the planet Saturn. This planet is thought to raise the 33year sun spot cycle known as the “Famine Cycle.” It is i the planet with the ring, utterly different from everything on earth or in the sky. A mode! of this planet is interesting and easy to make. Prof. Selby Maxwell has prepared plans and an interesting story which will enable you to make a model of Saturn. These plans will be sent to you FREE with the compliments of this newspaper. Just address your request to Prof. Selby Maxwell, care of this newspaper, enclosing a 3c stamped. self-addressed 1 envelope for reply. Copyright 1938 John F. Dille Co. I
