KEEPS DIARY 78 YEARS

LONDON, April 10 (U. PJ). Britain’s champion - diarist, J. Jackson Barstow, Deputy Lieutenant of Somerset, who faithfully kept a daily record for 78 years, is dead at the age of 96 at his home at Weston-super-Mare. The first entry in his diary, on Jan. 1, 1862, tells

how he fell through the ice.

The 1939 edition of «Jane's Fighting Ships,” the world authority or’ naval battle craft, has been Treceived from. London by City Librarian Luther L. Dickerson after months of delay. The book, which contains pictures and pertinent information on all of the world’s warships, has been gone over carefully by the British censor. Three and one-half pages of advertising placed by German merchants are blank with “Deleted by the Censor” printed across the pages. In the section devoted to German vessels, the editor intimates that some of the pictures of Nazi craft were obtained by subterfuge. He writes: “There will be found up-to-date photographs of practically every important type in the German Navy. To provide these, a very large num-

J.|ber of prints had to be purchased

or otherwise obtained, some of them on the eve of hostilities.” Further he states: “Additions continue to be made to the long list of depot ships and tenders which the German Nayy possesses. Some. of

these are new ships, but the major-
