Love Finds a Way Even in Case of Birds

There was romance in a bird cage today at the apartment of Andrew J. Trapp, custodian of the building at 2725 N. Meridian St, The two love birds which were found on different days at different places, apparently were lost mates, Mr. Trapp said. He said they seemed happy to be reunited in the cage, Mr, Trapp found one of the brilliantly colored birds pecking at the window of his automobile Sunday. While he was wondering what to do with it he read that Miss Martha Standiford, a supervisor, had found another stray love bird on a window ledge at Methodist Hospital Tuesday. He took his bird to the hospital last night and a com- [ parison showed both identical in size and color, Miss Standiford turned one she had found over Mr. Trapp.

WASHINGTON, June (U, P)— Germany's acquisition of the Skoda

Munitions Works by seizure of Czechoslovakia was one of the major reasons for Secretary of State Cordell Hull's request that the arms embargo provisions of the Neutrality Law be repealed, an unimpeachable authority informed the United Press today. Possession of these important works, together with the famous Krupp Munition Works in Germany, has made the Nazi Government the world's principal source of military supplies, Administration officials here said. Small European nations must depend now on Germany for military equipment, even for normal maintenance of internal law and order, they said, That situation has been aggravated by Germany's continued state of practical mobilization, thus making it necessary for other European governments to increase their arma-
