LESLIE PONDERS 23 POSTS SOON TO BE WARDED Public Service, Industrial Board Places Lead in Importance. Governor Harry G. Leslie today is studying a list of twenty-three state board and commission members whose appointments terminate during the next few months, beginning March 1. Two principal places from the public standpoint are on the public service commission and the state industrial board. Commissioner Frank Singleton’s term on the commission expires July 1. Although it has been predicted in the past that Leslie will not reappoint him, no outstanding contenders for the post have appeared as yet. Singleton, during the last few years of his second commission term, has ruled consistently in favor of the public and thus aroused conddcrable utility opposition. Ifeld in His Favor * However, in the political arena, his record stands well for his party because of this fact, and may result in his reappointment. < Victory for one of his major rulings was confirmed in federal court in the Martinsville case, where the local unit of rate-making triumphed over the power loop plan of the Intull interests. Singleton comes from Martinsville and has been a lifelong, “stalwart Republican.” But to be reappointed, an O. K. from Robert M. Feustel, Ft. Wayne (Ind.) Insull chief, and Leslie’s friend, may be essential, and if so, Singleton may be replaced. Commissioners are paid $6,000 a year. Ycrkin Term Expires A $4,000 position on the state industrial board will be available June 1, when the term of Horace G. Yerkin (Dem.) Newcastle, expires.

CHINESE READY FOR DESPERATE WOOSUNG FRAY Soldiers Will Stick to End, Grim Reply of General, Awaiting Attack. BY D. C. BESS United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1932, by United Press) SHANGHAI, Feb. 16.—A courageous, but downcast Chinese general and his equally determined command were* found at the fortress of Woosung today, when I penetrated the lines of Japanese who have been shelling the stronghold for days. On the eve of what promises to be the biggest battle for control of Shanghai, General Yung ChowHuan, garrison commander at Woosung, said with typical oriental resignation: “My men have decided to stick with me. When Woosung goes, we go with it.” “There is not much we can do when shelled by warships in the river and by airplanes overhead,” he said. “But we have repaired several of our damaged guns and feel certain we are ready to meet any infantry attack.” I asked him whether Japanese soldiers under Major-General Kumay Sliimonoto were worse enemies than the marines commanded by Rear-Admiral Uyematsu. “The marines were much tougher,” General Yung replied, adopting an American slang expression with a slow smile. The forts remain in the hands of Chinese, whose morale appears to be of the highest.

As calm as the bandit who rifled her purse was Miss Lily Burres, 1629 North New Jersey street, as she notified police of the robbery. Miss Burres, pretty secretary of Milo H. Stuart, assistant superintendent of schools, was robbed of $3 Monday when a man came to her office in the school administration building to inquire for a person he had seen walking into the school building. Miss Burres, unable to find the person’s name in the school di-

I just saw him walk out. Thank you.” And out he strolled, $3 richer. Gold produced in Alaska during 1931 was valued at $9,342,000, an increase of about a million dollars over the previous year’s production.

FISHT TD TRY DRY KILLER IN STATE COURTS Colorado Official Will Ask U. S. High Court to Turn Over Agent Dierks. By United Press WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.—The state of Colorado today will ask the supreme court to compel trial in a state court of a former prohibition agent accused of murder. The state attorney-general, Clarence Ireland, arrived Monday night to present the case of Henry Dierks. accused of fatally beating Melford Smith, 20. Smith, it is alleged, had in his possession three ounces of wine. Dierks Is under indictment on a murder charge, but federal authorities have refused to surrender him. The district court has upheld them in this, under a law providing trial in a federal court for federal officers accused of offenses committed while on duty. Dierks was dismissed by Prohibition Director Amos W. Woodcock, with a scathing denunciation and profound regrets to the relatives of the slain youth. The supreme court’s ruling is expected to prove of great importance. It has not passed on the question raised since the passage of the prohibition law. There have been several Instances where prohibition agents have been accused of assault and murder, but their cases always have been tried in the federal courts. About forty varieties of bananas are grown in various parts of the world.
