SEATTLE MAN SITTING TIGHT Wins Right To Rent Home For $60 A Month SEATTLE, Dec. 23 — UP)—Bern ard G. Lampe, wartime cmef carpenter's mate in the Sea bees, was sitting tight today hoping. . , , . _, Lampe won the right to rent a $14,000 home at $60 a month for two years during a drawing ordered by Federal Judge Lloyd L Black after the builder, R. r ■ Allison, pleaded guilty to the improper use of veterans priorities to obtain material. Today, however, he learned the mortgage holder has start ed foreclosure proceedings. The case was further compli cated by the fact that Judge Black sentenced Allison to three months in the county jail, sus pended the sentence and put him on probation for two years and two months. If Allison loses the house through nonpayment of his obligation. Judge Black said, he would have to serve the jail sentence. Now the case is to come again before Judge Black. RELIGIOUS HATE (Continued From ?age One) guard in the same place last week. A bullet from a Bed ouin rifle caught him in the chest at midnight. The same thing may happen to the man who took his place. On the rocky slopes of the Mount of Olives, bathed in the frosty light, are six new graves. Two "in the Moslem cemetery on the Eastern slope hold the bodies of two old Arabs killed by a Jewish bomb at Damascus Gate. The same afternoon they were buried, the Jews interred on the far slope the bodies of four of their people. Their convoy was ambushed and their truck burn ed near Solomon’s Pool, a few miles below Bethlehem. The brothers of the dead swore to avenge them while the rocks were piled upon the mounds of fresh earth. British soldiers and police stamp their feet and whack their arms against their sides in the shadows of the old walled city of Jerusalem. Roman guards stood there the night Mary and Joseph stopped in Jerusalem on their w^ay to Bethlehem. The soldiers and police curse the “eathens what’s got no res pect for Christmas.” Occasionally a bright orange light, like the one that guided —President Truman today gran basis of a report by his amnnees t h e Wise Men to Bethlehem, lights up the skyline. These lights are made by the very pistols of police investigating some suspicious movement in Jerusalem’s maze of alleys and passageways. They burh bril liantly for a few moments and then leave the sky to the moon and stars. The men of Haganah, the Jew ish “Defense army,” are on guard within the walls of the old city too. Their rifles are be side them, their grenades ready in rooftop nests to repel any Arab attack near the Wailing Wall, the last remains of the second temple where Mary and Joseph presented Jesus to God. Close by, Arabs huddle on the rooftops with their rifles and grenades, ready to die defending the Mosque of Omar. The paved road from Jerusa lem looks like a piece of silvery tinsel winding between the hills and among the olive groves along this road, Joseph and Mary, she “great with child,” traveled the five miles to Bethleham 1,947 years ago. The road is under a curfew tonight and the pilgrims on it are mostly soldiers. They 'ravel in convoys, protected by shiny green armored cars.

HANDICAPPED — Since color printing was little known, if at all, in those days the job the ma gazine did was comparable to the more recent article by Holiday. There are no beach scenes, be cause the pictures carried were line drawings. While the artist’s work was commendable he could hardly have done justice to a Carolina Beach or Wrights ville Beach July bathing beauty party. The text goes into great detail about the state's industries, its agriculture, and its people. While the author, Julian Ralph, takes a lew pot-snots at politi cians, he is also reminded that “North Carolina is a progressive commonwealth-’ an its Don is sell almost as high as those of the federal government. Along the Cape Fear is indebt ed to J. M. Davis, 404 South 17th street for the loan of the copy of the magazine. RIFLEMEN RAKE (Continued From Page One) Arab firing were for Robert Clive Stern, British-born Jewish em ploye of the public information office who Mfas shot in a Jeru salem street, and a Jewish major of the Trans-Jordan frontier ser vice who died of appendicitis. Stern formerly served in London as an assistant correspondent for the Chicago Tribune. As bullets sprayed the ceme tery, mourners crouched be hind walls and even floral wreaths. Police opened up with Bren guns and rifles against the rabs who were deployed on the Mount of Olives and the Sacred Mount of Ascension. Under this covering fire the mourners slipped ou of the burial ground above Jerusalem’s sealed golden gates as Arab chil dren along the route back to the city made throat-cutting gestures with their fingers. Bloody Struggle Two Jews were killed when Jews in Bat Yam and Arab war riors in Jabalieh continued their bloody itruggle. This brought to 306 the unofficial death toll since the United Nations voted for par tition Nov. 29. A deputy district commission er appealed to community lead ers for a “truce” in the Bat Yam sector south of Jaffa where five Jews have been killed in two days. Arab casualties there are unknown. SAVED BY SECOND (Continued From Page One) wonder. Those we love we try to protect. “Wouldn’t that have been a nice Christmas present to hand your mother—a broken and bat tered body. And how do you think that we in the cab of that engine would feel. We don’t want to hit you but we are helpless. “You and your girl were one second from eternity Sunday, son. If I were you, son, and you, too, sis, I’d thank God for that split second. I said a prayer— when I realized you were going across. Perhaps that’s what saved us all. And please, for God’s sake, don’t try it again.’’ RETAIL STORES (Continued From Page One) a skeleton crew will be kept on duty at the post office Christmas day. “We will deliver only spec ial delivery mail and perishable parcels during Christmas day,” he said. Dosher said that the post of fice has had a banner Christmas season this year with unusually heavy loads of mail handled and added that the employes “have worked hard and have given good service” considering the magnitude of their task. Only a few restaurants were scheduled to be open for busi ness tomorrow to serve those persons who eat all of their meals out and who will be in the city over Christmas. CONSERVATION voluntary and that there is no way of rationing fuel oil in the state except through action by the State legislature. The oil industry representa tives told Governor Cherry that they believed there is an ample supply of oil available in the oil producing areas and that the principle bottleneck is in trans portation facilities. They pointed out that in the year 1941, a total of 69,000,000 gallons of kerosene was con sumed in North Carolina, and that in only 10 months of 1947 some 198,000,000 gallon swere used. Radio Speech In a radio speech after the meeting today, O. Y. Kirk patrick of Charlotte, assistant manager of the Southern di vision of the Pure Oil company, said that the oil shortage was caused “in large measure by the fact that demand for petro leum products has reached rec ord peaks much higher than those of wartime and that the United States alone is now using as much oil as the entire world used in 1938.” CHARLOTTE MAY ENTER PETROLEUM BUSINESS CHARLOTTE, Dec. 23 — (<«’)— City governing head? today gave the nation’s major oil producers 72 hours to accept or reject a new customer — the Charlotte government itself. The action, under which the city will seek bids by Friday noon on kerosene or Number 1 fuel oil in lots up to 100,000 gal lons is aimed at obtaining an immediate supply of fuel for re sale to thousands of distressed families in an around the city area, it was announced here to day. Charlotte councilmen, meet ing in extraordinary session at the call of Mayor H. H. Baxter, declared a state of emergency existent and allocated $20,000 for initial investment in oil, if the fuel can be found. Meanwhile Mayor Baxter an nounced that he has a “pretty good chance” of obtaining 20, 000 gallons of kerosene a week from one Kentucky source which was located with the as sistance of former councilman Fred McIntyre. Seek Navy Tankers Looking toward long-range re lief, he discussed with City Man ger Henry A. Yancey a plan to ask high governmental officials to arrange the release of one or two Navy oilers which could be assigned to the transportation of fuel oil from the Texas or Lou isiana fields to Wilmington, where it would be transferred to tank trucks for local distribu tion. Yancey called in Purchasing Agent Erskine Beatty and asked him to wire immediate proposals to the major supply companies acquainting them with the city’s request for bids on kerosene and fuel oil in lots up to 100,000 gallons. Any offer ings received will be opened at noon Friday in the office of Po lice Chief Frank N. Littlejohn. Details of the distribution of any oil thus purchased were still to be arranged. It was expected, however, that the fuel would be resold to selected dealers who would agree to make immediate deliveries to needy families on the city’s call list as compiled in the emergency tuet on ottice. The price of the emergency supply will depend upon actual cost, including transportation, with a minimum markup allowed the delivering dealer. The city will make no profit whatever from the transactions, nor will the dealers selected be permitted to capitalize on the situation to reap abnormal prof its, the city manager said. Greensboro Dealers Cite Maldistribution GREENSBORO, Dec. 23 —OT —City officials delved more deeply into the Greensboro oil situation today and came up with indications in several in stances that the current oil shortage locally goes more deeply than need for conserva tion. Reports from small oil deal ers and individuals alleged that maldistribution here may be one of the causes of the short age. Herbert Winston, who will be the city’s oil co-ordinator if suf ficient fuel oil and kerosene is obtained to form a pool, said that conversations he had yes terday indicated there is no shortage among residents whose homes have large capacity tanks. Meanwhile, small jobbers have asserted that their trucks are available for short hauls, if the necessary oil is provided. BETHLEHEM READY (Continued From Page One) mony to symbolize the bright ness and joy of the night and rekindled faith in the story of the Christ Child. The Moravians’ ancient art of candle making was passed down to the founder of the Simon Rau Apothecary, one of the nation’s oldest drug stores. Tonight the windows of Bethlehem homes sparkled with the brilliance of thousands of Bayberry candles made in molds used by their Moravian founders. Abandons Candles One of the few exceptions were the windows of Moravian College which this year aban doned the use of candles in favor of electric lights. Throughout the city on Christ mas Eve the sound of music will echo from hill to hill as members of the Moravian trom bone choir climb to the steeple tower of 200-year-old Moravian church to herald the birthday of Jesus Christ.

Speaks Briefly Morris spoke briefly on his adopted state of Texas, stress ing its magnitude and pointing out that it leads in production of crude petroleum, sulphur and other products. He was intro duced by Charles Davis. The Rev. Paul Nix, formerly of the Maffitt Village Baptst church and now locaetd at Fur man university, retelling a por tion of the Christmas story, told the Rotarians that the message of the Angels to the shepherds was “as much for us today as for those men in that day . . . when they said, ‘Fear not.’ How we need to learn today not to be afraid!” The Rev. Mr. Nix said, “I believe that all the talk of war we hear today is because we are afraid . . . Freedom from fear will not come from winning wars or signing peace treaties . . . but by becoming Chris tians.” Names Committee Rotary President John Nuck ton announced the appointment of Howard Penton. Albert Seit ter and Charles M. Harrington to the inter-club committee for studying methods of develop ment of the port, industries and agriculture here. This inter-club committee was begun as a re sult of a meteing with all the heads of the civic organizations with the Rotarians to discuss ways and means of developing the city and area. Guests of the club were Davis Howes, III, Dr. H. W. Johnson and C. A. Hanck, Jr., of Chapel Hill. TRUMAN PARDONS (Continued From Page One) Roberts, former associate jus tice of the U. S. Supreme Court. The board reported that of 14,805 Selectice Service viola tion cases it considered, only 626 remained in federal con finement. The board, appointed by Mr. Truman Dec. 23, 1946, reported that it had reviewed each case on its merits with the idea of recommending individual par dons. It decided that no group should be granted amnesty as such.” Data Survey Recommendations for pardon were made after a review of such data and family history, school and work rocords, prior criminal history, if any, religious affiliations and practices, Selec tive Service history, nature and circumstances of offense and other matters. “At least two thirds of the cases considered were those of wilful violators, not based on religious scruples,” the board reported. No s mncsty was granted for violators with past serious crimi nal records which indicated they had “no respect for the law or the civil rights to which, they might have been restored.” Instead, the board sougni prim. Instead, the board sought pri marily to grant amnesty for those violation /as due to ignorance, illiteracy, misandinging or re ligious scruples. The report did not dee! with mental cases, most of which still are in mental institutions “with little or no chance of recovery. Prior to the amnesty proclama tion, Mr. Truman had, in ef fect, rejected a proposal by Sen William E. Jenner, R.. Ind., that he grant “general amnesty'’ as a Christmas gift for service-men convicted of minor offenses. MOUSE TRAP TRADE BOOMS SWAMPSCOTT, Mass. —(U.R)— Thousands of 'ormer GI‘S are interested in building better mouse-traps. Their desire to have a path beaten to their doors was revealed by Elizabeth B. Boudreau of the New England Library Association. She said that in the past six months. 1, 16' veterans have besieged li brary reference desks in New England for information on Iforeign patents on mouse traps. DEPARTMENT (Continued From Page One) clear they regarded the Panama Assembly’s unanimous rejection of the new lease agreement as a stinging rebuff. The State De partment was understood to have been confident only a week ago that the agreement signed by Hines and a Panamanian gov ernment official would be ap proved by the Assembly.” One official said the United States at the time had “assumed” that the Panamanian administra tion would not sign an agreement “unless it has assurances it would be approved by the As sembly.” Tear To Bun He said the United States still has the legal right to continue using the disputed bases until one year after the signing of defini tive peace treaties with the de feated axis powers. But to do so would “make no sense,” he said, and “would give us a false sense of security.” The department revealed for the first time that in the recent negotiations it had tried first to obtain a 60 to 90-year lease of the 14 bases, including the huge Rio Hata Air base in Western Panama. That proposal was scaled down to 50, 30 and 20 years before the December 10 agreement finally was reached. That would have given this country use of the 13 smaller installations for five years and a 10-year lease on the Rio Hato base, with an option for an additional 10 years. , It asserted that the American negotiators made “substantial and repeated concessions” to Pan ama in an effort to reconcile dif ferences over the defensive needs of the canal zone. The rejected agreement would have given Pan ama a yearly rental of $180,500 for the installations, and the Unit ed States offered to construct new roads and buildings in the defensive areas. The department spokesmen said they believed the Panamanian rejection was “tied up with in ternal political affairs,” and that the recent student demonstrations were fomented by Communists. MEXICO CITY (Continued From Page One) ment that German spies and saboteurs operated from there. Collenberg told Kempner also that the spies had a healthy re spect for the American Federal Bureau of Investigation and that they almost shuddered at men tion ol the name of J. Edgar Hoover, its chief. Collenberg told Kempner that at least 12 master spies and sab teurs went to the Embassy in oturs went to the Embassy n Mexico City to direct operations in the United States. Operated Two Years “Agents were coming and go ing in the Embassy all the time during the years 1940 and 1941," Collenberg said. “I would receive orders to keep the United States neutral and then in the next breath these agents would start coming in, always wanting mon ey .” The agents were cleared by the foreign office in Berlin, Col lenberg said, and after arriving in Mexico used to enter the United States by ship, plane and train to direct rings of spies and saboteurs which operated all over the country. After return ing to Mexico City the master operatives would report to the foreign organization of the tier man Nazi party. Kempner said that Collenberg told him German agents broke an oil pipe line leading out of Texas City sometime in 1940 or 194J. The line, he said, supplied oil to the Eastern seaboard. Col lenberg also knew vaguely of sabotage in a synthetic rubber plant in the East. EXTRA! FOOD COST CUT BROCTON, N. Y. (U.R)— The soaring cost of living has taken a 16 per cent nose dive at the cafeteria at Brocton Central School. The price of a plate lunch-a balanced meal, including the necessary food elements— has dropped to 15 cents, three cents lower than last year. School authorities said state and federal aid funds had made It possible to lower the price. Gets Royal Thanks FOUR-YEAR-OLD Juiie Alloro, Brook lyn, N. Y„ displays the wishbone from the turkey which she sent to Princess Elizabeth as a wedding gift. In addition to the bone, the Princess sent Julie a thank-you note on Buckingham Palace stationery. It was signed by lady-in-waiting Margaret Seymour. (International) I Rose Queen , MEET the newly-chosen queen of die 59th annual Tournament of Roses. | She is Virginia Goodhue, 18, a stu ! dent at Muir City College, Pasade na, California. Virginia, who will reign over the famed New Year’s Day floral parade, will be crowned at the formal coronation and ball to be held on Dec. 29. (International) OLD SALTY_ (Continued From Page One) able pride, sent a little token of his esteem to the best damned gal in every port from Cape Cod to Cape Horn. And the presents, according to Old Salty, ran the gamut from beauty creams to bustles and Scotch to scanties. He knew he screeched, because he had Nipped most of them himself in quay-side stores from Salem to Singapore. Remembers Pals Asked by the Star what he wanted for Christmas, Old Salty opined that he was already pretty well fixed with food and drink for the day but seemed more concerned about what Santa Claus was going to do for his many friends in Wilmington. Rubbing his beak affectionate ly on the Skipper’s almost hair less head, Old Salty said that he had just completed his annual letter to Santa Claus in which he put forth an eloquent plea to the old gentleman to be sure and remember his many pals here. Stretching a well-groomed leg down behind his seed box, “the bird” came up with a well srpudged sheet of paper on which he had scrawled beak wise, the following message: Dear Santa: Listen, you old fat land-lubber, this has been a fairly good year for you in more ways than one and it is high-time that you kick ed in with a little present for my pals down here in Wilming ton. For my good friend Jimmie Benson I would like a larger sized hat and a sturdy hull for his new fire boat; for Eddie Snead a brand new home for his VFW gang; to Col. Gillette and Rye Page a deed to the ship yard property so the old port of Wilmington will soon hum with activity. Then you might have a platter cut for Jimmie Wade so he can say hello to more people each day without undue strain on his vocal organs. And perhaps a nice plump dove for Ham Hicks and Harry Gardner might help restore peace between them over Bluethenthal field. And please, Santa, don t over look JWH’g big chief. Send him a nice gift for being so swell to the purses and drop an orchid to each of the nurses for accept ing that raise which will insure you good care if you break a limb trying to get down the chimqey. Wilbur Dosher has been a good boy all year and deserves a lolly-pop at least for the fine service he has given the mail ing public during these hectic days qf rush, push and problem. A Present For Mayor Too, Santa, I think Elvie White should have a high hat for his mayoring duties and per haps a drop or two more cream for his milk. And perhaps you could find some rubber busses for Safeway Transit so they can stretch a few more passengers onto each run. The elbow room now is at a premium. Porter Davis could use a nice boxing arena and Leon Brogdon a 7-foot center if you have one in your pack. Also from your sports shelf, lift down about a dozen ball players who know v^iere home plate Is and drop them down the.Sutton, Cheshire, Rooks and Stefano chimneys tonight. Pausing for a moment to catch his breath and a nip from the pinch-bottle, Old Salty closed one eye, squinted at his list and continued. Santa you old snow-dog. a cou ple of my pals, especal ones, too, have helped this old burg a lot this past year by planting a few brand new industries here and so remember Goodlett Thornton and Harriss Newman with some roses, will ya? Four apiece would be nice encased in glass. And Addison Hewlett could use a new' pair of specks so he can see better what is going on in the county and the many things such as Sunday sports, that New’ Hanover needs. Bob Kermon might like the address, too, of a reliable firm which prints mutual tickets be cause he may need ’em for his race track, while Allen Marshall would be tickled pink with a PGA tourney contract in his stocking. And if the north ern star* should point to war, drop a little gold braid in the' stockings of Walter Webb and all those other boys who may have to stand watch again on the river. You heard about the swell time they had this last war. Mr. Laney Remembered Emsley Laney needs a new bank building. Do you think you could squeeze in just a tiny modern ten-story job for him with a nice large office for the directors. I would like him to have this because the skipper has been hinting for a new tub and will need a loan if he gets it. Emory Southerland needs more room too, so he can hire a few more assistants and allow him more time to fish and hunt, so how about tossing him a new building, too. And banta, while I think about it, Harry Solomon also could use a new club house for his Brigade Boys’ club with a piano in the corner so he can practice up on “America.” Also Santa, I sure want you to remember Georgie Co nant with a new cigaret holder (one about 12 inches long) so the smoke won’t get in his eyes and fog up his view of trim ankles along the course. My boy Peter Brown Ruffin could use some nice new shipping business and a hundred more Chamber of Commerce members to go with the very conservative tie that the Skipper has in his sea bag for him. It’s hand-painted, too, with the figure of a sea lion in brilliant red against a yellow background. That’s about all Santa except a reminder that Warren Bell would appreciate more power for Christmas, oil up the Cam eron boys so their customers won’t be cold tomorrow; hustle television equipment down the chimney for Dick Dunlea, new cars for Luther Raney, Bill Baugh and the rest of the gang along automotive row, a bottle of water from the Fountain of Youth for the boys at the county home and if you drop by the ship after your chores are done, the Skipper and I will join you in a little “spot” of cheer as we wish all our friends in Wilm ington just a little more than the best this Christmas Old Salty reached for trie bot tle again, thought better of it, tucked an embarrased head be neath a wing and prepared for a nap. And as the Skipper was already away ahead of him, The Star ankled out of the cabin, the last of the “pinch” in a coat pocket. frenchmeTmust (Continued From Page One) against it. This amendment was offered by former Finance Min ister Rene Pleven who said the present figure of about 1,000,000 civil servants should be reduced to the 1938 level of 750,000. Most of the jobs to be eliminated are in the great nationalized indust ries like the power network. Mayer’s “austerity program” for France also includes in creased taxes on radios, tobacco, alcohol, spices, precious metals and other luxury consumer goods. There will be a special 400.000 franc ($3,300) annual levy on night clubs and no new spots may be opened after Jan. 1. The bill enacted tonight bore the tilte of an “exceptional levy ’ in the struggle against inflation. Demise Of Gorillas Time Overtakes CINCINNATI, O.
