Others of the 130 at work at the time of the explosion in section "North 12" escaped, officials said. The shaft mine employs about 500.

Repeated slate falls and excessive gas slowed rescue operations. Five workers, wearing oxygen masks, were carried from the mine unconscloua shortly after midnight, but were revived and able to walk to their hOmea.

Mine inspectors then ordered ■erection of additional brattices— temporary partitions—aa protection against the fumes. Original canvas brattices were replaced with wooden planks because of abnormal prc.ssure

About 5 a. m. re.scue crews reached a telephone shanty location where they expected to find four men. but failed to locate anyone. Workers said the bodies might be covered by rock falls.

Predict *Total Revenge*May Be Outcome o f Day

A t the Hungarian - Rumanian Frontier, Nov. 30—(A*)—Predictions that the rlotoua Iren Guard may seise this dsy as ths one upon which to sxact bloody “total revenge” for the slaytag of Comeliu Zelsna Codreanu, Its "martyred" founder, reached the border today from dtrlfs-tom Ru mania.

Premier Gen. Ion Antoneseu struggled to keep control of the country, which dispatches hinted to be on the verge of civil war, while guardists arranged to attend funeral aervlcea in Bucharest for Codreanu and IS comrades who were killed two years ago today (while trying to escape from Jl- lava prison, the official account at the time said.)

Eighteen-year-oId King Mihai whs reported to have fled his capital, there were reports of heavy loss of life In fighting at three Transylvanian cities, German and Rumanian troops were said to be ' "'■"3'' massing in Buchareat and the death liat in the Iron Guard blood purge, which started Wednesday, was said to be mounting.

Mihai Headed for Border,Some reports trickling Into

neighboring Hungary through the strict Rumanian censorship said Mihai, who came to the throne when his father, King Csrol II. abdicated Sept. 6, was headed for the Yugoslav frontier. Others said he was waiting on the out- •sklrta of Bucharest until the situation cleared.

Theoe border dispatches said that despite stern counter-meas- ure.s token by Antoneseu to put down the spreading terror from ! the Iron Gu.ord's purge of its ene- j mic.s, guardist legionnaires were trying to seize power at Turnu- Severin. Craiova and Brasov, in Transylvania. ' Heavy lo.ss of life was said to have occurred in those cities in a fight for possession of public buildings.

The guardi.sts were said to have i captiired the post office and telephone building nt Brasov before being driven- out by soldiers of the loc.ol garri.snn.

Artillery Fire Heard.: (A t Ruse, Bulgaria, on the Rumania !̂ frontier not far from Bu-

; charost, artillery fire could be ' heard across the Danube river and travelers from the Rumanian border village of Giurgiu reported the Antoneseu government was using heavy guns to crush the guard rehcUlon.

(T'ue.",o tr.avelers said "at lea.st a hundred" per.sons had been as- sasslnat"d in Bucharest and that report.s were current there that as Tr.an-\* more had been slain in tho provinces. Widespread anti-sc- mitir ac'.i'.ity wn.o rcporled.

(The poUre chief at Oiurglu, re.arhed by telephone from Bucharest, said he had heard no explosions of artillery. The government .-et the total dead in Bucha- re.st at. 07 and denied the reports of street fighting in provincial cities. I

sntatlon of prospecUvs spanding waa “vary much a part” of tha dia- cuaMmi, which, h# said, also cover- ad the probability of having to in- iT s a i the preaent 149,000,000,000 ll^ t ,on the Federal dabt.

But, Harriaon added, the discus- siona were "general” and no de- claaiona were reached other than that regarding IMO income.

’This inedme w m subjected to retroactive tagstlon In both the first and second revenue acta passed by Congress this yesr. The initial legislation imposed a 10 per cent defenee "euper-tax;” the second increased corporation Income taxes and Imposed an excess profits levy designed to prevent the creation of "war mllllonalrea.”

Harrison mentioned one other thing speclflcally. He aaid that the congressional committeea would give consideration to the overlapping of Federal and state taxes.

Ten Billion GoalThere was talk, meanwhile, of

a goal of 410,000.000,000 In revenues for the next fiscal year— about $3,000,000,000 more than the moat liberal estimate of the amount likely to be raised during the current year. Against this, expenditures are expected to exceed 413,000,000,000 this year and may ha even higher in 1041.

. One member of the group which attended the White House conference said it appeared likely that the present excess profits tax law wmild have to be worked In order to iron out rough spots in administration.

Some sections of the law have been found to be impractical in enforcement, he explained, but he declined to predict whether changes would Involve more than mere "perfecting" alterations.

Even before the conference group gathered at the W'hite House, the president had quieted talk of a Federal sales tax by telling his press conference that he would not approve any such levy.

experience. On the contrary, too often they have been regarded as mutually contradictory.

.These two aspects of Christian dlsciplesbip are tolerance and Intensity. I f they had both been recognized and practiced, how different the course of the (JhrisUan centuries might have been! It it not also strange how the clearest and most Incisive teachings and exarfiples of the New Testament are the things most disregarded in practice?

Jesus emphasizes the lesson of tolerance In a striking Incident. Some man, observing the course of Jesus and probably under the influence of His teaching, had been casting out difmons in His name. That Is all we know about him, but evidently the man waa acting sincerely and with efficacy.

But John, always very earnest and intense for his Master and for the rights and privileges of the inner group of disciples, rebuked th? man and forbade him because, as he said, "he follow- eth not us.” But Jesus rebuked John in very clear and emphatic words, "Forbid him not, for he that is not against us Is for us.’,’

That is the lesson of tolerance. The tolerant Christian cares more for right principles and right action and good results than he doea for labels and organizations and for agreement with his own particular expression of religious opinions. He realizes that it is by their fruits that faith and teaching are known, and he is willing to recognize the good that is done even though it may be done by and through those with whom he differs very sharply regarding

upon the Intensity of discl^e- shlp. It is enforced in two or three ways.

There Is the story of a certain man who came and expressed the purpose to follow Jesus wherever he might go. 'Ths reply of Jesus is as imperative as it is sad. "The foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son man hath not where to. lay H li head.” »

The other incident o f the man who would follow Jesus, but who said, "Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.” This is a little nvire difficult for us to understand. On the surface, and with the bold statement as It stands, our sympathies seem to be with this man who made what appeared to be a reasonable request; but we do not know what waa in the backgrounds of the incident, The prob ability is that Jesus sensed in the man some insincerity and that He said this to put Him to the test.

There are passage.* and incidents in Scripture in connection with wbi9h we have to construct an imaginative background. unless we are to be misled Into harsh and unfair interpretations. The compassionate (Jhrist who wept as He entered the home of Mary and Martha where His friend, Lazarus, was dead, could not have been unsympathetic toward a man professing sincere concern about his father.

But one thing doe.* stand out: that Christian dlscipleship is exacting. It is the supreme commitment of a man's life; and in the real showdown nothing can stand in Its way.

Ethel Merman, Ethel Barrymore, Ed Wynn Reaping Prosperity.

New York, Nov. 80—)—tilths flood of hits now bounding over Broadway With Ethel Merman. Ethel;..Barrymore and Ed Wynn reaping the prosperity of their talents there are also several oth- er plays which are doing much better than expected.

Mina Merman has a sentimental and sultry (yes, sultry) musical comedy in "Panama Hattie," Miss Barrymore has an artful and original drama in "The Com Is Green” and Mr. Wynn haa a mad musical in "Boys and Girls 'To- gfcther.” But these are standard setups with established stars; a trifle different from a few other hits on the Rialto that weren’t so taken for granted.

Shakespeare Play Hell-Ont One of the sudden Ixix office at

tractions in all this glitter Is old man Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" Which is selling to standing room only. True some of this attraction may be that Helen Hayes and Maurice Evans are playing the leading roles in this heretofore ■not , too popular play from the btird. but Miss Hayes wasn’t so fortunate before when she tried to carry to success a minor play, "Ladies and Gentlemen.”

Apparently the combination of playwright and actor is needed for the would-be dull moments in "Twelfth Night" are given champagne excitement by a young and joyous performance of Miss Hayes and a deliberate and delightful cockney 'burlesque by Evans.

And where "Twelfth Night," was expected to be merely a mild Shakespearean experience catering chiefly to audiences built up by Miss Hayes and Evsns. the comedy has become such an established hit that even the box office treasurers have a continuous kindly look in their eyes.

Another Unexpected HitIn the wake of "Twelfth Night"

cornea another unexpected hit, "Charley's Aunt." TTiat battered, kicked around old farce is something one wouldn’t expect to sec except in parlor games, but the Brandon Thomas comedy is up again with Jo.*e Ferrer in leading role and .cash payinf^ audiences pour In tot se^lt with far more glee than they'go in to see comedies by a modem playwright.

Also there is still that imexpcct- 1 ed hit, "Tobacco Road." which now ' may proceed and be assured that It is a suece.*8 despite what the reviewers say or got tired of saying. ^

Hollywood, Nov. 80—

The Big One Got AwayGe r m a n circle* were confiding, at the beginning of the week, that “ in a very short time" Bulgaria would not only sign up with the Axis but also would "sciEe the golden opportunity to obtain an outlet to the Aegean from Greece.”

Earlier Rumania, Hungary and Slovakia—the little ones for Adolf Hitler—had signed.

But on Monday the same German sources acknowledged that there would bo no more signers for . the present. This meant that Hitler had put away his pole with not only Bulgaria but Yugo.slavia and Turkey still outside the basket.

Bulgarians Tell WhyThe Bulgarians were elated. One

official said: “ It now appears certain to us that Bulgaria will not be involved in war this Winter. Bulgarians attributed their reprieve to these factors:

First, Bulgarian leftists—lumping together Communists, liberals, ; democrats and fegi-arians — were making such a commotion that Hitler may have feared an uprising if Bulgaria signed.

Second, residents believe that Red Russia, their big Slav brother, advised their country not to sign.

Third, Turkey was hinting she might strike if Bulgaria joined.

Fourth,'Bulgaria was embold- cnad—and Hitler was embarras.sed —by the spectacle another Axis member, Italy, was making of her- aelf in Greece (or rather, now, in Albania). Observers believe Hitler did not care to risk a general Balkan upheaval by applying further pressure.

The unhappy Italians were as- iigned to make these further announcements about Axis doings: Nazis were leaving the fight against Greece entirely up to Mussolini’s legions; Spain too was staying off the Axis.

Greeks pushed Italians back into Albainia §0 miles to Pogradetz along the only highway on the northern" front; and in the south, 10 miles across the border to Ar- girocastro, Italy’s last “ invasion” base in southern Albania. By midweek, Italian resistance was stiffening.

One At A TimeIn the air war, Germany contin- ,

ued her new tactics of smashing nightly at outlying British cities, one at a time. For days dfter each city was assaulted the British censors would not permit the names of the cities to be mentioned. The reason, apparently, was to prevent %e enemy from learning whether its planes were releasing their

. bombs over the right cities.But eventually Br i tai j r a n

nounced that the cities (after Coventry) had been: Birminghani, Southampton and Bristol. '

In Rumania, the Iron Guardjsts (now in control) went, one tiight« to the Jilava prison courtyard to exhume the bodies of Corneliu Codreanu and othor lron Guardists buried there after being slain during the reign of King Carol. While there, they lined up and shot several .score of political prisoners prominent in Carol's regirne. Gcn-

/ e r a l Antonescu, premier-dictator, promised that the assassins would be punished. Anarchy ■ thleatened Rumania.

WORLD WEEKHome

Campaign MementosThe election has ended but the

campaign lingers on. No one real- ■ izes this more than Senator Gillette, chairman of the Senate committee appointed to police elections, and Attorney General Jack- son.

Senator Gillette is now receiving election complaints and is organizing investigations. The attorney goncral^has announced that a special grand jury will be convened next week study charges that the Hatch Act, limiting expenditures of a party committee to $3,- 000,000 was either violated or evaded.

“ If the law has been violated there shoul d be prosecution,” Jackson said. “ If there have been evasions the loopholes should be tightened.” • • •

Kansas: Three Weeks AfterMost candidates knew how they

made out by Nov. 6. But in the Kansas gubernatorial race a seesaw ballot-count dragged on and on. First Democrat William Burke, a stockman, was ahead, then handsome Republican Gov. Payne Rat- ner. When all votes but the 6,000 out-of-state absentee ballots were opened, Burke led; when those were counted late last week Rat- ner led by 427.

Thereupon Democrats whooped that many absentee ballotcrs held no legal residence in Kansas, asked Washington to investigate and began court suits. The suits were aimed at forcing the state canvassing board to produce the affidavits detached from out-of-state ballots. In the first court test, Burke’s forces lost.

Black's OpinionSupreme Court Justice Black

was criiicized at the time of his appointment when newspapers revealed he had once belonged to the Ku Klux Klan. This week he read an unanimous decision affecting Negroes.

Of the 3R4 jurors who served in Harris County, Texas, from 1931 through 1938, only five were Negroes. “C h a n c e and ac c i de nt alone,” he a.sscrted, “could hardly have brought about the listing for grand jury service of so few Negroes from among the thousands shown by the undisputed evidence

’ tfor jury service.

Black’s opinion set aside the conviction of a Houston Negro sentenced to life imprisonment for criminally assaulting a white woman; and ruled that racial discrimination in choosing jurors was both unconstitutional and undemocratic.To Probe Food Middlemen

the FBI. He recalled, also, that Dies had announced last week he would .soon investigate the Vultee strike. Jackson commented that the FBI had already investigated and made a confidential report that Communist influence was prolonging the strike.

Dies rebutted by calling Jackson a coddler of Reds, and appealed to FDR to coordinate the work of. locating subverters.

FDR gently reminded Dies that the Constitution places the primary responsibility for dealing with illegal activities in the hands of the executive, not the legislative branch; and that Dies’ work might well hamper the FBI by giving immtipity to witnesses before his comrmttee. -He suggested that Dies and Jackson get together and define their respectivc/fields.
