KIWANiANS LAUD I MEMORY OF JONES Local Civic Club Passes Resolution Of Respect To Late Sheriff Members of the Wilmington Ki wanis club in regular meeting yes terday unanimously passed the following resolution of respect to the memory of the lale C- David Jones and on motion of Dr. John Hoggard, stood for a moment in silent prayer as further esteem in which he was held: On Thursday, April 10th, 1947, C. David Jones, Past President of this Club, closed his eyes and passed on to the Kiwanis Club Eternal in the Heavens. The death of a useful citizen in the prime of his life is always tragic. When the deceased has en twined his own life into the lives of hundreds through lovable traits and wide associations, his passing assumes the dimensions of a com munity’s tragedy. To know Davy was to love him. To dislike him was as difficult as to dislike the sunshine. His extra ordinary geniality, his freedom from pettiness, his readiness to speak a generous word and to do a good deed for others, his unfail ing courtesty. his warm sym phathetic personality — all these traits combined to make him one of the most beloved characters in this city and state. His service as- sheriff of New' Hanover county proved that his poise and manner came from a true gentleness of spirit, support ed by a heart that knew no fear ard "a mind that never compro mised w'ith principle; and there is left to those who came in contact with him, a very precious mem ory.

Second: That a page in our min ut book be inscribed to his mem ory. Third: That we realize 1here is something now missing from our organization that cannot be re placed. There is gone this fine, lovable man, with his great genius for friendship. That his leave-tak ing now bereav s many organiza tions. circles and individuals.

King Aaron Goldberg COMMITTEE I v JURYMEN (Continued From Page One) laying the state’s case against Gurley. Other cases disposed of during yesterday’s session of court were; The conviction of Lavenia Nel son and George Porter, Negroes, for manslaughter in the death of their month-and-a-half-old son. Sentence has not yet been passed on the pair. Louis B. Harper came into court from Orlando, Fla., and pleaded guilty to forgery. Judge Williams ordered him to make restitution and sentenced him to a suspended term of two to three years in the state prison and immediately placed him on three years pro bation. Innocent Plea In the case of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Rich, charged with high way robbery, both entered inno cent pleas through their attorneys, Aaron Goldberg. After the state had presented their witnesses Goldberg entered an innocent plea for Mrs. Rich which was granted and a guilty plea for Rich to a lesser charge of larceny from the person. Goldberg also made a plea for his client, Rich, who he said was a drug addict. He re quested that Judge Williams turn Rich over to federal authorities in New York who are seeking his custody. Judge Williams has the plea under dvisement. Eddie Williams, 18-year-old Ne gro, received a directed verdict of innocent to a charge of store breaking, larceny and rei .iving. However, Judge Williams order ed his parole revoked and com mitted him to prison to serve an 18-months term which was im posed on Williams by Judge Henry L. Stevens, Jr., during the Oc tober, 1946, term of court here. At that time, Williams was con victed on two counts of house breaking, larceny and receiving and was given a suspended 18 months sentence in each c .e and placed on parole for five years. According to a report by State Probation Officer J. O. Woods, Williams has failed to live up to the conditions of his parole. Bond was set by Judge Wil liams for those named in recent true bills by the grand jury. They were as follows, M. Christopher, $300 each on two charges of worthless checks; Austin Enzer, $500 for bastardy; J. F. Curtis, $500, worthless check; and Leon ard Gillman, $300 each on two counts of worthless checks. “Parian verse” is ill-natured satire, so called from Archilochus, a native of Paros.

AMEJUCA AND SOLD IHEH GOVERNMENT WILL LEASE PARK SITE Rep. Clark Advises State To Take Fort Caswell Acres Under Permit Morning Star Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, April 23 — Fort Caswell may be obtained by the state of North Carolina as a if crea tion park through a revocable per mit or lease only — not by out right transfer — as the armed services committee of the house has blocked the navy’s proposal to declare the property surplus, Rep. J. Bayard Clark said today. Clark advised R. Bruce Ethe ridge, state Conservation director, to take the property under permit and use it with "minimum im provement,’’ and thus “have the advantage of possession and use.” when it became available for permanent acquisition. Etheridge previously had told Clark the state would not be in terested in a permit or lease be cause it “could not hope to get an appropriation for improvement’’ of any property to which it did not have title. But Clark’s later information will be presented to the state board of conservation and development at a meeting Monday. The law requires the navy to get armed service committee’s ap proval before transferring prop erty to anyone except another federal agency, Clark explained. The War Department told the representative the state use of the former fort would not interfere with the army’s activities on a portion of the property. LOWER i (Continued From Page One) and wholesalers that “really wide spread price reduction” cannot come until labor and material costs stop soaring. The first big break in the price of soaps came when Colgate Palmolive - Peet co. announced at Jersey City, N. J., a 10 percent cut in bulk soap. Lever May Follow Levey Bros, said in* Boston a de cision on soap prices was expect ed in a week or ten days, and M. Werk co. said in Cincinnati a 10 percent cut will be made. Prices of fats and oils, highly important in soap making, have dropped substantially, paving the way for a cut in soap. Soybean oil, cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, coconut oil and tallow have been marked down anywhere from 6 3-4 to 11 cents a pound. Hog prices continued to slide in Chicago, although at a slower rate, and were off 25 to 75 cents a hundredweight. Cattle prices were steady to lower and sheep steady to higher. A survey of nearby suburban New York areas showed several thousand new small homes empty because of what contractors call ed “a general buyers’ strike a gainst high prices. ” Some build ers were reported cutting prices and others said they would build no more until the turmoil over prices was settled. Sugar May Soar As an indication of what sugar prices might be after decontrol this fall, B. W. Dyer & co., sugar brokers, reported “ A responsbile American seller” is offering re - fined sugar for 1948 delivery at $10.75 a hundred-weight. The cur rent price is $8.25. Running counter to the price trend today was wholesale butter, which advanced a cent a pound in New York to 60 3-4 cents, end ing seven consecutive days of de clines which totalled 7 cents. MAJOR (Continued From Page One) rotund Soviet Foreign minister said. In the exchange. British Foreign Secretary Bevin and French For eign Minister Bidault tried to soften the situation. Bevin inter jected that “when some one starts to build a bridge between East and West it would be better not to thwart it.” Marshall declared the Russians had not made a new proposal con cerning the Austrian treaty since the London meeting of deputies and that subsequent “views ex pressed by the Soviet delegation have widened rather than narrow ed our differences.” He disclosed that three secret meetings on Austria the last few days had met with complete fail ure to make any progress. The only constructive action of the whole meeting was the sud den Soviet yielding to the British proposal for the return of all pris oners of war to Germany by Dec. 31, 1948. Russia holds more prisoners than any other power. The four ministers will meet to morrow to discuss again Austria, an American proposal to limit oc cupation forces in Europe, and the date and place of their next con ference. Their deputies will dis cuss some remaining mjnor ques tions on Austria. Molotov also will reply to Marshall’s statement about Germany tomorrow. The French already had sent some of their baggage to a special train ready to leave as soon as possible after the session ends. Secretary Marshall has ordered his plane from Berlin to be ready by tomorrow. - NBC (Continued From Page One) they would be cut off.

Inc.) Trade Mark 'R<$« u. 8..Pat. Office) NEW SUBDIVISION TO BE DEVELOPED Former Blake, Cameron And Caldwell Property To Be Developed Announcement of a n£w subdi vision adjacent to the Forest -Hills area was made yesterday from W. A. Fonvielle, Sr., of Moore Fonvielle Realty company. The development, the former Blake, Cameron and , Caldwell property, will cover 78 acres and contains 155 lot sites, Fonvielle said. It is bounded on the west by Forest Hills^ on the south by Burnt Mill Creek, ’ adjoins Mercer Place property on the east, and meets the Market street road and farm lands on the north. “We hope to have the first lots up for sale within 90 days,” Fon vielle said, “ but of course, we can’t promise anything.” Fonvielle said that the lots would range from 10,000 to 33.000 square feet in size. Houses built on the devel<^>ment will be moderate and above in price. With tentative approval already given by the city planning board, Fonvielle said That a final okeh would be given as soon as a few minor changes were effected. There will be two entrances to the new development, which will be served internally by two loop roads. One entrance will be located slightly sccith of the junc tion of Colonial and Forest Hill drives A road from that point will run east for around 2.000 feet and then north to run parallel with Mercer avenue to Majrket street road. The two loop roads will run off of the main road in side the subdivision. Here is a layout of the lots in the subdivision: The area adjoining Forest Hills is wooded and slightly roll ing. A curving loop road arch ing back to the main road will serve as access to the area. Some of the most extensive lots are in this part of the development, and many of the higher-priced homes are expected to be built here. Deepest lots in the subdivision will be those along Brunt Mill creek on the southern fringe of the development. These lots will range from 230 to 460 feet in depth and average 75 feet in width. Houses in this part of the develop ment would be constructed on a small ridge near the front of most lots, while the sloping back areas would be ideal for gardens. Fon vielle said. The more moderate priced homes are to be located on the eastern and northern portions of the development. There will be a two-acre park in this area. It will be served by the other of the two loop roads stemming from the main road. Work already has begun on the project, surveyors have staked out the roadways. When paths for the roads, have been clear ed, Fonvielle said, paving will begin as soon as possible.

FIREBUG ALERTS ! DUKE OFFICIALS Firemen Kept On Jump For Four Hours Ex tinguishing Blazes DURHAM, April 23—(U.R)—A fast moving firebug raced through Duke University hospital early to. day, setting a string of fires .that kept hospital attendants and fire men on the jump for four hours. The flames destroyed thousands of X-ray films but did little other damage. All the fires were dis covered before they gained head way. * v Night superintendent L. fe. Swanson said every patient was accounted for and that he bad no clues to the pyromaniac’s identity. No arrests had been made tonight. Swanson said few of the hos pital’s 490 patients knew what was happening as nurses, orderlies and internes ran from floor to floor extinguishing the blazes. There was no panic. • Fire was first discovered in a laboratory trash can on the sec ond floor, then in a waste basket on the floor above, and then again on the second floor. The hospital official said the blazes ranged from one end of the rambling stone building to the other and from the basement to the fifth floor. Most of the dam age was in the X-ray department, where the last and most serious fire destroyed the films. Swanson said the damage would have been more severe had it not been for the slow-burning quality of the “safety” X-ray films. The destroyed films were a valuable part of the hospital’s records. All nurses and floor superinten dents were instructed to keep a close watch tonight in case the firebug made a return visit, Swan son reported. MAY (Continued from Page One) May received $5,000 outright from tire Garssons and two checks for $1,000 each for ‘intervening with war department' officials” for promotions in the army. Check Transactions Paisley said these two checks were given to May by Freeman’s son, Robert, and by E. D. Feld man, who Paisley said was a Cali fornia war manufacturer with a son in the army. Defense Attorney Smith said in his preliminary statement that May had no financial interest in the lumber firm nor in the metal products companies. He further told the jury: 1. That May was actiilg only as an agent with the lumber company ir. the interests of the war effort. 2. That all Garsson money sent to the lumber company went en tirely for development of the firm. 3. That May never “personally benefited” from the $5,000 the government contends the Gars sons gave him. COfTNTV (Continued from Page One) which the grand jury urged to be inspected immediately, was old as the building was erected during the 1870's. “I doubt if many homes where wiring has been installed as long ago as that in Tilleston school would be found satisfactory to day,” he added. He also pointed out that replac ing the present wiring would re quire a nexpenditurfe of a couple of thousand dollars, a sum much larger than the board of education has at its disposal for routine maintenance of the school plant. BRITISH (Continued From Page One) express yesterday, killing at least 10 British’ soldiers and civilians and wounding 391 "We regret the civilian casual ties which we did our utmost to avoid,” the Irgunist announcer said. A military truck was blown up tonight near Tel Aviv and three soldiers were slightly injured. The 12 wounded aboard the ref ugee ship were hurt yesterday when men of the British boarding party boarded the vessel — the Sheaar Yashuv—which was trying to run the blockade with about 750 Jewish immigrants of Polish and Romanian origin.

The speaker pointed out that the cost of teaching the youth of a nation is far less than the cost of illiteracy, backwardness and lack cf* progress. He cited examples of the development of army training for illiterates, when it became necessary to enlist them into the armed forces, and pointed out that eight weeks of this concentrated education cost about as much as eight years regular schooling would have—if the men had had it." “We dare not neglect the public school system that has constituted a basic foundation for American democracy. The strength and se curity of our nation demand that we avert the threatened disaster that faces our schools because of inadequate financial support”, he stated.
