PRICES TO BE FIXED ON TIRES AND TUBES

(Earleir Details Page, 19)

WASHINGTON, June 26 \(U. P.). —Price Control Administrator Leon Henderson announced toddy that early next week the Government will establish ceiling prices on rubber tires and tubes at the wholesale and retail levels that existed on June 17. Tire and tube retailers must post a list of these ‘previous prices “in a conspicuous place” on their premises to assure buyers that they are not being overcharged, Mr. Henderson said. Dealers who were selling below prevailing levels on June 17, he said, will be allowed to adjust their prices to a competitive plane. Mr. Henderson has warned that prices also will be set on crude, reclaimed and scrap rubber but made no mention of those proposed schedules today.

CLAIMS NEW CAUSE FOR HYPERTENSION

DURHAM, N. H., June 26 (U. PJ. —High blood pressure in many cases may be caused by two tiny groups of cells in the kidneys, according to Dr. F. W. Dunihue of the University of Vermont. He told the American Association for the Advancement of Science yesterday that recent research showed that when kidney blood supply is limited, these cells multiply immediately at the points of entrance and exit of the kidney arteries. : Coming long before higher blood pressure becomes noticeable, the increase also precedes the accumulation of the fatal kidney secretion in the blood, he said.

into the street, many of them. carrying children. Nobody seemed to know where he was going, and all of them were covered with thick gray dust. That dust was one of the strangest things I ever saw. It came from ruined buildings and the air was full of it, as though clouds had descended and were moving along the ground. I sat down on the bottom step of the apartment building and started to put on my socks and shoes. Then the second wave came

over. 2 2 =»

Two . Buildings Afire

WITH SOME SORT of animal instinct—as though I were trying to avoid danger by -hiding—I pulled my topcoat over my head. The lobby of the apartment house was made out of black and white tiles about three inches square. I remember noticing, when the building began to shake again, that the vibrations shook the tiles out of their pattern. It made a

sort of gray blur out of them, the -

way they would seem if I had on a pair of glasses that were out of focus. Two buildings next door were afire and a big hotel on the plaza down the street had been hit. Smoke poured into the narrow street so thickly that I couldn’t see a fountain nearby. Out of the smoke a child, about 3 or 4 years old, came toddling toward

us. Its clothes were torn, its face was smudged and it was crying. Three or four of us ran out and picked up the child whom we turned over to a policeman who came into the apartment vestibule. To this day I can’t recall whether the child was a girl or a boy. Things really began hap-

. pening now and happening so fast

that ‘there was no time to think. The third wave came over. sg 2 =

- Man’s Arm Blown Off

WE LOOKED OUT after it passed and saw ga bundle of bloody rags moving through the dust. It was a man whose left arm had been blown off at the elbow. The policeman looked around for some way to get the man to the hospital, and decided to use a peddler’s cart that was standing outside the apartment. The peddler yelled at us to leave the cart alone because he didn't want to lose all his oranges. The policeman and I didn’t pay any attention. We just dumped the oranges out, and put the wounded man in the cart. I gave him ag drink of rum. The policeman took a drink, too. I made it unanimous. Then the policeman, pushing the cart, disappeared in the dust. The fourth wave came over. _There didn’t seem to be anything we could do. Theére were no air-raid shelters in Belgrade because the city had not expected to be bombed. By this time six explosive bombs had fallen within half a block of us. I couldn’t see across the street for the smoke and the dust, but I decided to get away from there—I mean

lull, Incendiary bombs had started fires spouting up all ground the apartment house. I began to haul on the rest of my clothes. The fifth wave came over. tJ ” ”

Dud Bomb Crashes

A DUD BOMB crashed through the asphalt in the street about 50 feet way from me. Then there came a lull and I dashed down the street to a garage where .I had arranged to buy a car. No car in that garage would have been worth buying. The building had been smashed and every automobile in it was ruined. Suddenly chunks of mortar and brick came bouncing down ‘the street from explosions, reminding me of rocks that boys skip across ponds. I decided to go to the home of the American minister, about a half hour’s walk away. I had to shield my face from the heat thrown off by fierce fires on each side of the street, but I hung on to the bottle of rum and ran as fast as I could. I came out to a main street. Bodies were scattered around. A soldier lay flat on his back still holding his rifle at, shoulder arms. A street car blazed. Sputtering trolley wires were down, throwing. off smoke and electric flames that dazzled my eyes. EJ ” ”

Glass Fills Street

BROKEN GLASS lay on the street, two and three inches deep in some places. I found that I couldn’t make any forward progress. I would take a step and then slip back on the glass. It was as though I was having a nightmare in which I was rooted in the midst of flames, smoke

people who thought that their ordeal ended with the five waves of the first raid were" disillusioned. I heard planes again, and I knew the second raid was on. I got off the main street into a narrow thoroughfare. Climbing over a pile of rubble, I saw a man driving a horse along ahead of a small milk cart. I ducked into a small doorway just as a bomb made almost a direct hit on the cart. The man was blown to pieces and the cart went up in dust—all but a few fragments of the shafts which clung to the horse. I saw that the horse had ‘a large wound in his shoulder, and he began charging up and down in the narrow street that was blocked at each'end by piles of rubble.

Fears Maddened Horse

FOR A MOMENT 1 was more afraid of the horse, maddened with pain, than I was of the things that rained out of the sky.

I ran for one end of the street, but the horse blocked my way. I ran back to the shelter of the doorway and the horse charged past. After a couple of tries I managed to slip out one end of the street while the horse was at the other end. ~ I arrived at the American Minister’'s home and found that the house next door to him had been hit. A man trying to escape had got his automobile half way out of a garage when he was struck. His body lay across the steering wheel. : The Minister, his wife and their

staff had crawled under a grand | piano and- built a shelter of pillows and rugs in case the house caved in on them. I joined them and the Minister's wife poured a double brandy for all of ‘us.

Just then the American military attache drove up and said he was going to the center of the city to ¥ destroy some documents in his office. I decided to go with him. When we reached his office, I went in with him, but he told me I had better go back outside and 1 watch the automobile.

Fight for Gasoline

I SOON UNDERSTOOD what he meant. People were desperate for transportation and were willing to fight for tires or gasoline. People began to throw their bundles on the fop of our car and try to climb inside of it. I chased them away. One man tried to rip off a front tire and I chased him away. ‘Then somebody took the cap off the gasoline tank and was preparing to siphon our gasoline and I chased him off. Actually, I fought people away from the car for half an hour. Finally the military attache, who planned to join the Jugoslavian
