N. Y. GANGSTER TAKEN FOR RIDE BY RACKETEERS Friend of Late Marlow Is Found, Shot to Death, in Brooklyn. Bu United Prut BROOKLYN, N. Y„ Dec. 6.—Phil Diana, a young gangster who has been operating on the fringe of the big shot racketeers, and who boasted rashly that he would settle with the killers of Frankie Marlow, died in a Brooklyn gjitter early today, a victim of gangland tactics. Detective Fitzgerald of the Brooklyn police said that Phil always carried two guns, but he was unarmed when his body was found. There were two bull?t holes in the head. Apparently he was shot and dumped from an automobile, for a woman in the neighborhood said a car had passed slowly through the street shortly after midnight. Diana's real name was Sylvester Graiusso. He was 26 and a friend of Frankie Yale, the racketeer, w T ho was killed in Brooklyn last year; of A1 Capone of Chicago, and of Marlow, who was taken for a ride and slain last spring. Diana recently returned from a trip to Philadelphia, where he attempted to see Capone, serving a year’s sentence in jail there. After Marlow’s body was found, Diana boasted that he knew 7 the killers and would attend to them himself. Phil was wounded while attempting to put over a racket on the longshoremen two years ago. PARK BOARD TO SELL BONDS TO BUY LAND Tracts for Approach to Delaware Bridge Will Be Purchased. The park board will receive bids on a $79,000 bond issue Dec. 23 to buy the two tracts north of the ; Delaware street bridge from JoseBalz Company. The property will be used in developing an adequate approach to the bridge. The city has sought the property for several years, but heretofore was unable to get a reasonable option from the owners. Theodore Dammeyer, works board president, co-operated with the park board in the transaction. Sisters of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel were granted permission to erect a convent costing more than $500,000 on Cold Spring road south of Thirtieth street. Work will be begun early in 1930.

WHOM the Lord loveth He chasteneth. —Hebrews 12:6. Comment IN the first year of my blindness I often wished that He had not loved me quite so much, but through the chastisement has come to me understanding. With that understanding I realize the truth. I no longer pray, Take the cup from me, but accept the fight of life as it is presented to me. After twenty-one years of darkness I wouldn't trade the understanding that has come to me for all the eyel in the world. I entered the forest of darkness untamed, undisciplined, grasping selfish. I came out of that darkness when understanding became my sight, when I had learned to bear disappointment, when I had comprehended to do the thing that w 7 as to be done for love of the cause and not for self-aggrandizement. When I became interested unselfishly, and worked because the work was there to be done, without considering whether the result would help me or not—though in the doing of the thing that would not help me I was most helped—l began to understand what Christ meant, when His disciples, quarreling among themselves as to who should be first, replied, The first shall be last and the last shall be first. He that shall endure until the end shall be saved. (Compiled bii the Bible Guild) Next: Millard E. Tydings, United States senator from Maryland.
