mittee would push a recommendation that the rental system be made state-wide. "The system of having the boards buy the books and rent them at 25 per cent of the wholesal price has saved parents a lot of money in places where it is practiced," the lieutenant-gover-nor said. "It also obviates the difficulty encountered under multiple adoption of having to change books when It Is necessary to move to another part of the state."

And He’s 96! f I J. J ‘ K :WBk ■ ■H John J. White Ice skating for the young folk? Don't be silly, says John J. White of Spokane, Wash., who celebrates his 96th birthday by cutting figure eights. White, who eats and drinks what he pleases and smokes a pipe, has been ice skating since he was six. His only advice for long life is, “Don't worrvl” cated that he might favor a different system of selection. In answer to a question by Senator Biddinger. who asked if he thought too much power rested with the governor in relation to the board, he said: "That would be my personal opinion. There is always a danger when too much appointive power is in the hands of one man. but I do not think it would apply in this case. I am sure Governor Townsend has not interfered in selection or adoption of books in any way.” — o AMENDMENTS TO ■ CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE, merits would be proposed to congress by employer groups. The CIO has expressed opposition to any amendment of the labor statute at this time The AFI. said that basic purposes of its amendments were to: Make it obligatory for the labor board to respect the right of craft employes to decide for themselves by majority vote who their bargaining representative shall be. Curtail power of the power to invalidate legal contracts between employers and labor organizations. Change board procedure to give all parties affected by a case full notice, fair hearing, protec tion against abuse of discretion and assurance of adequate judicial review of all decrees. o ALLEGE GERMAN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) the government of the United States," the note said.

VOTE THREE TO I HALL OF FAME Geo. Sisler, Willie Keeler And Eddie Collins Voted Worthy New York, Jan. 25 — (UP) — George Sisler, Wee Willie Keeler, and Eddie Collins were voted worthy by baseball writers today to join 14 previously chosen dia-j mond immortals in the hall of fame at Cooperstown, N. Y.. scene of the sport's centennial celebration this! year. Sisler, one of the greatest first basemen of all time, was ushered into the Shrine on the greatest avalanche of votes cast for any play-1 er since ■balloting began four years ago. Os the 274 baseball writers association members who voted, 235 named Sisler as worthy of a place alongside Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth. Hans Wagner, Christy Mathewson, Walter Johnson, Nap Lajoie, Tris Speaker, Cy Young. Grover Cleve- i land, Alexander and others. Collins was picked by 213 writers , and Keeler was chosen by 207, just one more than the necessary 75 per cent, (206) for election this year. When the great Alexander was the only one to poll 75 per cent of the ballots last year, Sisler, Keeler, and Collins missed by about 10 per cent. Rube Waddell, eccentric pitcher of the early great Philadelphia Athletic teams, ran fourth this year but failed to come near election with 179 votes, three more than totaled by Rogers Hornsby. Behind them were Frank Chance, 158. Ed Delahanty, Ed Walsh, 132; Johnny Evers, 107; Miller Huggins, 97; Raitrbit Maranville, 82.; and Jimmy Collins. 72. At the end of the list were two managers deposed during the 1938 season: Mickey Cochrane of the Detroit Tigers with 28 votes and Frankie Frisch of the St. Louis Cardinals with 26. On June 12—Baseball’s centennial celebration at Cooperstown will be featured by the unveiling of plaques of all entrants to the hall of fame. These include George Wright, organizer of the New Yor,: Knickerbockers, first organized . .lub in baseball; M. G. Bulkey, Ban i Johnson. John J. McGraw and Con- ; nie Mack, who were by a j commission composed of commis-i sioner K. M. Landis, and the two major league presidents. The com-, mission is expected to honor five i more greats of the Nineteenth cen-, tury next month. Baseball writers are allowed to vote on twentieth century players only.

HEAVY DEATH TOLL (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) were given out as received. A few hours after the earthquake, which occurred at 11:34 p tn, reports had been received of 100 dead, but there was little dould here that the total was far higher. Squadrons of military bombers were the first relief agencies to start south. The trains came next. One train carried President Pedro Aguirre Cerdo. 40 doctors, 70 nurses and medical supplies. Airplanes were taking off at frequent intervals. To express alarming reports which might cause unfounded alarm, authorities here ordered censorship of broadcasting. The earthquake was the most severe since the one in December, 1928, in (he same region, in which 600 were killed. The director general of electric services ordered all amateur radio an increase of German exiMirts to the United States. It doubted Germany’s good faith, both in the matter of its official declaration of having no intention of discrimination against American creditors. and in the sincerity with which it was tried to reach a settlement.

Government authorities feared it would lie several days before the real extent of the disaster was known. Soon after the shock, telephone authorities reported the tpwns of Parral, Angol and Pailaheque had been destroyed. Parral and Angol are close together, about 250 miles south of Santiago. Pailaheque lies another 150 miles to the south. Twelve persons were known dead in early reports from Con , cepcion, 10 miles across the bay from Talcahuano. Unconfirmed reports said that one-fourth of the business district was destroyed, and at Talcahuano naval base a fire could be seen burning in the city. Six provinces, Talca. Maule, Nuble, Concepcion, Biobio and Cautin, with a total population of more than 1.600,000 people, lay in the earthquake zone. As soon as the first shocks were felt here—electric clocks stopped at 11:34 p.m—officials of the ministry of interior took their posts of duty and began the work ol ascertaining the extent of the catastrophe and organizing relief work. Within a few hours, all employes of the ministry were at their posts.
