(Continued from Page One) ants from selling poultry items in excess of the ceiling prices, and order them to appear before Judge Meekins for a hearing at the Wilson term of U. S. court May 3. Commenting on advertisements of two firms appearing today in Ra leigh newspapers, Johnson express ed OPA’s appreciation for the deal ers' refusal to pay more than ceil ing prices. "That kind of patriotism is badly needed to stamp out “black market” operations,” he said. "There could be no purchases by unscrupulous dealers violating the price ceilings unless there are sell ers whose desire for profit is great er than their interest in the welfare of their country. "We earnestly solicit the patriotic cooperation of every citizen and especially every dealer in poultry to help us stamp out this type of profiteering at the expense of the consuming public.” stockholm'warns GERMANS AGAINST ILLEGAL MINES (Continued from Page One) It was disclosed that during the search for the missing Swedish submarine Ulven, submerged Ger man mines were discovered inside the three-mile territorial limit in the vicinity of Marstrand. The Swedes have taken steps to remove the mines, the statement •aid. and added that “in the con viction that the German govern ment is completely agreed with the justification of this method of ac tion, the Swedish government per mits itself to direct renewed re presentation to the German gov ernment to try to see to it that German ships which pass Swedish waters restrain themselves from actions of above mentioned types.” The note said that it was “un disputable” that the Altkirch shot at the Draken and that this ac tion, together with the mine lay ing, comprised a “violation of Sweden’s neutrality.” WEATHER (Continued from Page One) WASHINGTON, April 24—(/Pj—Wea ther bureau report of temperature and rainfall for the 24 hours ending 8 p. m.

He said from 50 to 60 cubic centimeters of air in jected in the human body usually results in death, but the pressure from the machine used in this case was unascertainable and there fore the amount of air injected in to Lewis was unknown.

LEADERS SOUGHT FOR GIRL SCOUTS Appeal Sounded By Group Organizational Chairman For Wilmington Area An appeal for leaders of Girl Scout Troops was made Saturday by Mrs. H. W. Winkle, group or ganizational chairman of the Wil mington Girls Scouts, as she re vealed that membership in the Girl Scouts in this vicinity had increased from 104 last year to over 500 this year. “From only five troops of a year ago, we now have 25 active units,’’ Mrs. Winkle pointed out. “But we need more and more in terested women to help out in the movement. The Scout Leader ship drive is a tremendous oppor tunity for any woman, because the attitudes and knowledge that girls learn in Scouting today can in fluence the whole future of America.” The Scout chairman said the rising delinquency rate among very young girls in many parts of the country indicated what hap pens when youngsters are subject ed to too much war excitement and too little opportunity for training. Women of Wilmington, Wrights ville and Carolina Beaches who are interested are asked to call at the Girl Scout office, 20 Wallace building. CELANESE COMPANY STRIKE IS ENDED (Continued from Page One) district 50. a catch-all union of UMW, protested certification by the national labor relations board of a CIO textile union as the bar gaining agent. The UMW group insisted that the war labor board take over the case, a procedure which the board declined. Board Convenes The Celanese case was one of a double-headed problem the gov ernment had involving the Unit ed Mine Workers. Latest devel opment In the second situation was the convening of a war labor board hearing on the soft coal wage dis pute, an opening session not at tended by Lewis nor any of his officials who had been summoned to the meeting. Operators were represented. At the conclusion of the prelimi nary meeting, the board ordered the present wage contract extend ed pending settlement of the dis put, announced it would set up a three-man panel to begin closed sessions Wednesday and said the proceedings would go ahead with or without participation of UMW representatives unless a work stop page develops. The Wednesday date for starting the hearings is only three days be fore expiration of the already once-extended deadline for expira tion of the existing contract be tween operators and the UMW. I Trouble in the nations coai mines already were appearing as the week-end came along. At Birmingham, Ala., five mines of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company and the Wood ward Iron company became idle Saturday when workers failed to show up. A district UMW presi dent said the work stoppage grew from dissatisfaction over what he said was failure of the operators to install a six-day week and from slow progress in negotiations for a ; new contract. Other Stoppages There were work stoppages in other industries in scattered parts of the country. The Detroit tank arsenal operat ed by Chrysler corporation closed Saturday morning. A corporation spokesman said the stoppage came after 500 workers paraded through the building to protest a day-and a-half layoff of one employe for leaving work to smoke. Leo La motte, regional director of the CIO’s United Automobile Workers, said “I don’t know any of the fac tors involved in this dispute, but I am going to do everything in my power to get those men back on the job immediately.” Steel workers and others in war plants at Johnstown, Pa., found themselves without usual transpor tation yesterday morning when a strike tied up trolley and bus transportation. Members of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway and Motor Coach em ployes, an AFL affiliate, walked out. Union members complained they were being sent home with out pay when runs were not avail able or equipment was out of serv ice and that working hours had been reduced from 56 to 48 hours a week. -V REPORT INDICATES ROMMEL REMOVED FROM AFRICAN WAR (Continued from Page One) -V would not entrust the defense of Italy to any Italian general and that Rommel would be the most likely choice on the basis of re putation and all-around achieve ment. It is pointed out also that Rom mel long had been a personal friend of Hitler and that Hitler was likely to be lenient with a field marshal as distinguished from an ordinary general. While there is a possibility that Rommel has been wounded or kill ed, no intelligence to this effect has reached the allied lines and the German propaganda has not seized on his fate — whatever it I may be — to salvage something for its own use on the African de hfiole Obituaries MRS. C. M. WEATHERS Graveside rites for Mrs. C. M. Weathers, who died last Sunday at her home on Wrightsville Sound, were conducted Tuesday at Belleview cemetery in Lenoir.
