BLOW UP HOME OF BOOZE KING ‘Marked’Gangsier Chief Escapes Death. Bu Untied Press CLEVELAND, Aug. L —The $15,000 home of Raymond Porello was blown up today in what police believe is the latest development in a cold-blooded underworld campaign of extermination. Porello secretly had moved his family several days ago. He is one of the seven Porello brothers, who, for years, have controlled th* bootleg sugar alcohol racket in Cleveland. A month or so ago, anew force in gangland circles informed the seven Porellos they were marked for death. Joe, eldest of the seven, and his body guard, Sam Tillicco, were ambushed and slain in an Italian case on July 5. Three weeks later a second brother, James, was killed in a grocery store. Only one of the five remaining brothers has a chance, police said. He is in Ohio penitentiary. VICTOR DEALERS SEE LATE RADIO MODELS New Type Receiver Is Feature of Griffith Meeting.

‘ Don’t Wear Your Dead Sons Like Necklace , ’ Is Advice to War Mothers

BY HENRY T. RUSSELL United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, Aug. If,.—“For God’s sake, don’t wear your dead sons like / a necklace!” Ellen Wilkinson, Labor member of parliament, in spite of "most heartfelt sympathy” for bereaved war mothers, once made th; above remark to a woman who was describing her war losses “more ir. the tone that one might expect of someone bragging about an achievement than with the feeling that she had suffered a terrible tragedy.” There are some queer ways of expressing mother-love,” she added in an exclusive interview with the United Press in which she discussed war and what she thought was the best way to prevent it. Then: "But don’t say I think this of all mothers; people would think I was a monster,” she said. The feeling of women seem to reach two extremes when it comes to peace and war, she continued, declaring that in time of peace women were generally the most ardent pacifists, but in time of war they were "apt to lose their heads more easily than men.”

Ellen Wilkinson

longs to that category of attractive young women whose natural charm enables them to dispense with the use of the lipstick. A pair of almost mischievous brown eyes which seem to match her red hair, remind one of school days and tempt one to call out: “Hello Redhead.” One regrets that there are no freckles on her unpowdered face to complete the picture. Asked if she thought women were suited for political life: “Apart from the fact that women will be women and men will be men, eternally,” she replied, “I think there is no real reason why sex should come between them in public life.” *

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Erin, which convoyed the racer across the Atlantic. The Shamrock, 81 feet long on the water line and of 135 tons, made the ocean passage of about 4,000 miles in twenty-three days, without injury or mishap despite headwinds and two fierce gales, encountered in the crossing.

"In time of war,” she explained, “women are more patriotic than men. Look at their attitude toward slackers! I, for one, was shocked by their vindictiveness toward those who remained behind.” Speaking of the influence which mothers could have on the future prevention of wars, due to a probable desire to prevent the wholesale bereavements which occurred in 1914-18, she declared that “there are some queer ways of expressing mother-love.” This, she said, was illustrated by what she described as the “sometime strange way in which mothers expressed almost as much pride as sorrow in their losses.” “Incidentally,” she added, “it is not always those who paraded their dead sons, so to speak, who really were the most deserving of sympathy during the war I think that it was those who closed up tight and said nothing who made the greatest sacrifice.” Os tiny and provocatively feminine stature, Ellen Wilkinson be-

Can we afford to heat with GAS? A TIMELY question to debate with your family—now that nights are getting longer, days shorter. Either you must soon lay in tons and tons of sooty, ash-forming fuel, OR . . investigate the possibilities of GAS—the CLEAN fuel. Either you must bow to the drudgery of fire-tending, cold rooms for dressing, wavering temperatures, OR . . . regulate home temperatures with the single weekly winding of a thermostat-clock. Logically, GAS is the ideal way ... but how much would it cost? IT COSTS NOTHING TO GETTHE FACTS The actual cost of heating your home with Gas depends on many things; the size of your home, its insulation, its exposure and the degree of warmth desired. A careful survey will give you a reliable estimate. This estimate costs nothing, involves you in no way. We wager it will be well below your expectations. Surely you’d like to know, simply for your famly’s sake. Just ’phone and ask for the Househeating Division. Prompt inquiries will receive immediate attention. Citizens Gas Company 47 S.
