Chile Ready To Sever Relations
AROUSED BY SPANISH ACTION IN' REGARDS TO -AMBASSADOR LONDON, April 26.— (UP)—Diplomats said today that Chile for the past forty-eight hours lias been on (he verge of severing diplomatic relations with the Spanish loyalist government because of its action in declaring Chilean Ambassador Aurelio Nunez Morgada “persona non grata.” The Santiago government threatened to hand the Spanish ambassador his passports, but is awaiting Nunez Morgada’s report before taking final action. The Spanish loyalists accused Nunez Morgada of smuggling. Nunez Mogada was stopped and his Iraggage searched when he was leaving Valencia recently. The Spanish government said he was smuggling out bonds and that the Chilean Embassy was used in espoinage. Nunez Morgada protested the interference with his baggage as violation of diplomatic immunity. He is now safely aboard the Argentine cruiser Tucuman. en route to Marseille:), France. The Chilean foreign office was constantly in touch with the Spanish ambassador to Santiago and insisted on learning details of Nunez Morgadr.’s plight. Only fear for safety of the remaining refugees in the Chilean Embassy in Madrid caused Santiago to hesitate about dismissing Spanish Ambassador Rodrigo Soriano Bar-raeta-Aldamar, it was understood.

CHICAGO, April 26 (UP)—Marcia Thompson, 25, night club hostess described by police as a sweetheart of Oscar Klinger, slain ex-Capone henchman, was questioned today for a possible clue to his murder. Police said Miss Thompson was packing to leave for her former home near Warsaw, Ind., when they stopped her yesterday. They also detained three of her friends, James Ryan, 34; Pearl Pauley, a cafe dice girl, and Miss Eleanor Pattick, 18, unemployed waitress. Police Sergeant William Sheehan said he learned Miss Thompson and Klinger had been intimate friends, that Klinger and his wife had quarreled over his affection for the girl. “We believe she can give us a definite lead if she only will talk,” Sheehan said. Investigators believed one of Miss Thompson's former acquaintances also may have objected to her attentions to Klinger. Klinger, described as a former bodyguard in employ of A1 Capone syndicate, a handbook operator, and small time gambler, was singled out from 10 card players in his place Friday night, and “executed" by two men.

As far as the visible setting was concerned, Sunday was a ''mushroom day", the bright sunlight gave a glamorous glow to tlie view, the soil was saturated with the preceding showers, and Putnam county’s famous soil was there, all of it just right for a notable mushroom picture. The only thing lacking was the mushrooms, at least they were not there in
profusion.
There was not sufficient warmth in the soil. The mushrooms that did emerge from the grass were small. On Saturday, one gatherer of this delicacy found two hundred, he said. ^
It e ad I. "I could have put them | | n the late Colin.l EUintt^p!!! nil in a quart cup.” Although others tion, "The Little Prople , reported having better success. ‘ -* -
The season for the “morel,” which is the proper name for the spring mushroom ,is very brief, regardless of whether the crop is large or small. Even if the temperature is too low for them to develop to a good size, that has no effect on the length of the
season.
This morel is the only species of fungus commonly used for food which is absolutely free from danger of confusion with any other funggus. It is the form ofted called "the sponge mushroom.” There is no other fungus growth that even remotely resembles
it.
The gathering of the fall mushroom of the umbrella type of structure, is often attended with disaster because
