(Coatinn'd From Paire On»» Sion-'. As Chamberlain was packing last! night, the war office here issued a j 3 000 word statement angrily de--cimclng and denying allegations; Great Biitirh troops had committed atrocities in Palestine. “Lying, ex-1 agger ated propaganda’’ was charged. I Though the war office did not say so, the statement was aimed directly and solely at Italy and Gennany, Great Britain’s prospective friends, whose newspapers and officially approved wireless programs for weeks have broadcast to the world such statements as “the usual British atrocities in Palestine continued toJay.” If anything further were needed to show the difficulty of effecting an agreement between Chamberlain and Mussolini, it was that Chamberlain intended, during his visit to Rome, to support President Roosevelt’s appeal to Mussolini to cooperate in solving the Jewish problem.

(Nearly 200 years ago, Benjanrn Franklin wrote "Poor Richard's Almanack. ’ Many cf the Almanack sayings are practical today, and for that reason we present excerpts from the great work.) The art of getting riches consists very much in thrift. All men are not equally qualified for getting money, but it is in the power of every one alike to practice this virtue. He’s gone, and forgot nothing but to say farewell—to his creditors. He that would be beforehand In the world, must be beforehand in his business: it is not on]y ill management, but discovers a slothful disposition, to do that in the afternoon, which should have been done In the morning. Would you live with ease, do what you ought, and not what you please. Don't think to hunt two hares with one dog. Learning, whether speculative or practical, is. in popular or mixt governments, the natural sourc* of wealth and honor. All things are cheap to the saving, dear to the wasteful. Strive to ba the greatest man in your country, and you may be disappointed; strive to be the best, and you may succeed: he may well win the race that runs by himself. To lengthen thy life, lessen thy mea]s. Let no pleasure tempt thee, no profit allure thee, no ambition corrupt thee, no example sway thee, no persuasion move thee, to do any thing which thou knowest to be evil; so*shalt thou always live jollily; for a good conscience is a continual Christmas.
For the want of a loan, the house was lost; for the want of a house, the fami]y was lost; for the want of a family, the bread-winner was lost. The Central solicits loans.
It was the day before the payment was due, but this wise man was not alanned, for he didn’t worry about the sheriff or anybody else. He had arranged with the Central for a loan.

If You Can Do This, You Have Got Something-— “If you know how to spend less than you make, you have the philosopher’s stone,” said Benjamin Franklin. From his great store of wisdom and personal experience, Benjamin Franklin has given us this practical recipe for ■ ruccess. Saving money is largely a matter of planning—of making out a route, and following the sign posts. A Savings Account can be opened for a very few dollars, even one dollar, and regular deposits made weeklv or monthly, soon build up a substantial sum. Hundreds of men and women in this vic'nity have used the medium of a Savings Account as a "stepping stone" to financial independence, the purchase of a home, education of children, or some other worth-while objective. The same opportunity beckons to you Take advantage of it by opening a Savings Account this week at the Central National Bank.

The gunman shouted, “Where’s that nigger?” Then, without waiting for an answer, he fired three times. He and his companion fled. At St. Francis hospital, Miller told police he was unable to explain the gunman’s query. Before losing consciousness, he murmured: “Well, the gamblers finally got

The telegraphic call said it was “for the purpose of hearing a report from President Martin on the negotiations which he said he was carrying on with representatives of the For i Motor company.” Martin said he would attend and would take “whatever steps neces?ary” to preserve the union. An official close to him said he was prepared, if necessary, to expel the entire executive board as a lightning counter to any move to oust him. Trie claim of a high union official that Martin was conducting private negotiations with Harry Bennett, personnel director of the Ford Motor company, precipitated th“ meeting. Last summer Martin expelled five officer% who were aligned against him on the board to lay. A Congress of Industrial Organizations peace plan had reinstated them and osten-
sibly sealed the rift.
