Mia Camacho Returns

to Mexico With ‘Firmest

Conviction’ of U. S. Friendship After Eating Frankfurters With Roosevelt and His Cadets.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex., April 22 (U. P.).—The his-

toric meeting of President Roosevelt and President Manuel

Avila Camacho of Mexico on

officially today .as a perfect Semonstration of the good neigh-|

bor policy.

United States soil was hailed

At their dramatic parting at this ‘aval air station, - where the U. S. displayed its aerial might for the visiting officials, Foreign Minister Ezequiel Padilla said Avila Camacho would carry home with him “the firmest conviction”

that the meeting brought

American-Mexican relations to the pinnacle of friendship. The Mexican president left here late yesterday after watching, with Mr. Roosevelt, a review of hundreds of U. 8S. naval fighting planes, tor- ° pedo bombers and flying boats, and eating American frankfurters at’a luneh in a cadet mess hall. : His train, the “Olive Tree,” crossed

the Rio Grande at an undisclosed]

point some time early today, ending - one of the most memorable events in the history of the United States and Mexico. Mexican presidential aids considered the meeting between Avila Camacho and Mr. Roosevelt a celebrated success. They said the visit marked the acme of good neighborliness and wartime co-operation between the two republics.

Meeting Is Surprise

In the presidential party returning to Mexico was U. S. Ambassador George S. Messersmith, who de.scribed the meeting as filling “every expectation.” The meeting of the two presidents on U. 8. soil yesterday was a complete surprise, just as was Mr. Roosevelt's visit Tuesday to the Mexican chief executive at Monterrey, 100 miles south of the border. After ‘arriving here, with their « wives, on a special train from Monterrey, Mr. Roosevelt entertained Avila Camacho at a luncheon at the cadet mess hall. / At the luncheon, Mr. Roosevelt told the cadets at the" naval air training station, the largest in the world, that he considered his visit with Avila Camacho as one of the greatest American historical meet- * ings. Personally, he said, his six and one-half hours in Mexico Tuesday was “one of the high points in my life.” He said many Mexican cadets were training at Corpus Christi and also

CLAREMORE, Okla., April 22 (U.

YANK BOMBERS RAID GILBERTS

‘Devastating Attack’ Is

Delivered on Nauru

Island.

WASHINGTON, "April 22 (U. P.). —The navy announced today that a large force of U. S. army bombers have delivered another” devastating attack on Nauru island, a Japanese base in the Gilbert group guarding one of the approaches to the enemy's naval stronghold at Truk. The attack was carried out in the

face of intense anti-aircraft fire and fighter plane interception. “Much damage was done to Japanese installations,” the navy’s .war bulletin reported.

Five Zeros Downed

Five and possibly seven defending zero fighters were shot down during the attack, the second on that base in nearly a month. All our planes returned. Meanwhile, American fliers in the Aleutians continued their smashing offensive against Kiska, hitting the enemy base 10 times on Tuesday to raise the April raid score to 113. Nauru, formerly under British mandate, is the site of some of the world’s biggest phosphate deposits. It is 675 miles northeast of Guadalcanal and 1020 miles southeast of Truk. It was assumed that the attacking planes operated from Henderson field on Guadalcanal. The navy’s communique also reported a raid by heavy bombers on Numa Numa harbor, Bougainville island, in the northwestern Solomons. Bad weather prevented observation of results there.

260 Tons Dropped :

In their effort to blast the Japs out of their Aleutians foothold, American fliers dumped at least 260 tons of bombs on Kiska during the first 19 days of April. . In scattered forays yesterday, Gen. MacArthur's bombers destroyed two enemy planes and bombed or shot up enemy-held viilages and airdromes north of Australia while for the second night a single Japanese plane ranged over Morobe, on the north New Guinea

For Recess Until May 3.

‘WASHINGTON, April 22 (U.P.). —House leaders today announced plans to recess the ‘house from the close of business today until May 3, when a new pay-as-you-go tax bill will be brought up. Shortly after the house convened at noon a resolution was adopted providing for the recess. The sen-

recess effective. Republican and Democratic leaders had agreed to support the resolution when ranking members of the ways and means committee announced that they were unable to agree on a compromise: tax bill.

Speaker Sam Rayburn announced that the tax issue will be threshed out anew on the floor. He said a tax bill would be sent to the floor permitting any member an opportunity to offer amendments. That means that Republicans will get

Carlson “skip-a-year” plan again regardless of what sort of bill the committee - brings in on May 3. Rep. Frank Carlson (R. -Kas.) said that he would reintroduce his proposal for total forgiveness of a

present it to the house as a substitute for whatever me the Democratic majority of the ways and means committee recommends,

Favor Carlson Bill Indications ‘are that thie Republican leadership will make ‘another fight for the Carlson bill and switch to their compromise proposal for 75 per cent forgiveness if it fails. Ways and Means Chairman Robert L. Doughton (D. N. C.) said the Democrats intend to offer the com-

promise plan they held out for in the compromise conferences, which

comes rates to their 1941 levels.

‘This plan would amortize the un-| forgiven 1942 taxes over a three-| -

year period. All the proposals contain ‘prog sions for a 20 percent withhol at. the source to begin July 1 agt t 1943 taxes. Republican preference for. the Carlson bill over the 75 per cent compromise was based on the contention that the latter proposal would involve a measure of doubling up.

A Crushing Burden’

“Moreover,” the Republicans said, “it represents the greatest eoncession that can be made if’ income tax payments. are to be placed on a current, pay-as-we-earn basis without too great an increase in the tax burden and too long a postponement of the goal of reaching a fully current basis.” The Republicans said they, rejected the Democratic 50 per, eent | proposal because it would place “a crushing burden” on millions of taxpayers in the lower - brackets through &ubling up tax payments. Democrats defended it as a plan to give the largest percentage. of] forgiveness to the lower income brackets, pointing out that taxpayers in these categories will be most affected by the 20 per cent withholding.

Here' s How to Make a Nosebleed Stop Itself

By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS FOLKLORE suggests, as a cure for nosebleed, placing a gold coin on the back of the neck. Such a stunt, of course, can have no actual effect on the bleeding—but might provide some distraction during the 10 minutes or so it takes for the bleeding to stop of its own accord. Nosebleed takes place when the small blood vessels that pass through the lining membrane of the nose are ruptured and blood escapes.

Recurring nosebleeds are common in youth, usually for the following reasons: First, because of frequent in- LL Jury to the nose in playing and : .scuffling about. } ‘Second, because i .of frequent colds. Third, because | “of the vigor with which children may ordinarily blow their noses. Here is 3 jevh~ nique that really | works well to Dr. Masters bring a simple (and often a prolonged) nosebleed to an end: The patient sits in a chair with his head inverted between his knees, or lies prone on a bed with his head hanging over the side. He should breathe through his mouth, “and avoid all sniffling. Blood then collects in the nostril and coagulates, and this coagulated blood soon extends back to the small bleeding vessel, - stopping the flow of blood. The nose should not be blown, because doing -so would tend to dislodge the clot and bleeding would be resumed.’ One should remain at rest for a short time “tp keep the blood pressure down ' and avoid any nasal activity until “the clot in the vessel is well-es-tablished.

Some Are Serious

A minority of nosebleeds are persistent and imply some significant change—such as harden.ing ‘of the arteries, or increase in the pressure of the blood, tumors in the nose, scurry due

35 |" to lack of Vitamin C, or changes 3 | in the blood like purpura; or se-

Fairly Well Despite Cold Weather. By VIRGINIA HATFIELD - Indianapolis victory gardeners

should consider themselves lucky. With but few exceptions, A. A.

ricultural agent, reports that no heavy crop losses have been suf-

seasonable cold weather and frosts

been in delay of spring gardens rather than in material damage to crops. : ie Gardeners here have planted only the hardy crops which are not often affected by such weather. On the other hand, indications; are that the early fruit crops may have been affected. Mr. Irwin predicts a very spotted peach crop

| throughout the state. The apple]

crop appears to be undamaged. ‘The situation here is a far cry from that in the South. The weather bureau reports that victory gardens and early fruits suffered material damage there. Mr. Irwin points out that tender crops probably had been planted in the South at this time of year and that such weather would destroy them. In parts of the northeast, the weather bureau reports the coldest April in 30.years. Rain added to the chill has held back farm work. In sharp contrast to this conditioh, the far West shows temperatures above average for the season.

the great plains are wishing they had some of that excess rain from elsewhere in the country. So you see, blessed are Indinnapolis victory gardeners.

DICKINSON OF MICHIGAN DEAD

Former Governor Achieved Wide Fame in Fight on * Gaming, Drinking.

CHARLOTTE, Mich, April 22 (U. P.)—Lufen D. Dickinson, former governor of Michigan whose campaigns against gambling, drinking and vice drew nation-wide attention, diea today. He was 84 years old last Thursday. Dickinson died quietly at 12:30 p. m. of a “severe” heart attack. His death brought to an end a career during which he served six times as Michigan’s governor, short-

ly after beginning his seventh term. The sudden death of Gov. Frank Di Fitzgerald catapulted Dickinson into the executive’s chair,

Ardent Methodist

An ardent Methodist and longtime pillar of Michigan's anti-sa-loon league, the frail, wispy Charlotte Republican employed the governorship to further his life-long campaign against vice, immorality and liquor. He filled official speeches with biblical passages ard boasted he had a “pipeline to God.” Dickinson won nation-wide publicity shortly after the 1839 governors’ conference at Albany, N. Y,, when he came home to assail eastern “high life” at the lavish con‘ference, spicing his remarks with charges that innocent girls had been led to the “brink of hell” by a|glid sophisticates whom he termed
