ROCKFORD. 111. (/P> — A 27
year-old farmer, sought by police
in a 24-hour four-state manhunt
in connection with the double
slaying and the kidnaping of his
paramour surrendered unexpect

a frustrated love affair.
“I didn’t mean to kill those
men,” Glenn Marsh told reporters
after he gave himself up at the
home of his father here. ‘‘If they’d
set down when they saw the gun
they mouldn’t have been hurt.”
At the time of his arrest, offi

ready to face the music.”
Max A. Weston, Winnebago
county state’s attorney, said Marsh
was booked on charges of murder
and kidnaping.

WASHINGTON (^—Victorious
poultrymen hailed the end of
poultryless Thursday Saturday
with a call for the public to eat
more instead of fewer chickens.
Pledged to save 56,000,000 bush
els of grain by reducing the size of
their flocks, the growers faced the
problem of peddling 136,000,000
birds between now and Jan. 1 in
the face of huge cold storage sup
plies already on hand.
In a joint statement with secre
tary of agriculture Anderson, the
citizens food committee headed by
Charles Luckman last night called
an immediate “moratorium” on
the poultryless days while retain
ing the Thursday ban on eggs.

“This committee has been under

ment was reached until the poul- i

The committee referred to its ac- j
tion as a suspension “while the

but the betting around Washington
was that poultryless Thursday was
as dead as a cold storage duck.

SEATTLE, (iP) — A coast and
geodetic survey party, headed by
Lt. Comdr. R. W. Woodworth, re- j
turned here Saturday after chart
ing Alaska’s Arctic coast line for
a distance of 70 miles fron^ Point
Barrow in a southwesterly direc
tion.
The world’s largest multiple- j
lense aerial camera, using three
foot square films costing $200 j
each. Tlie mapping was done at an
altitude of from twelve to eighteen
thousand feet and the nine-lens j
camera did a marvelous job, sur
vey officers said. The camera’s
view is wide—130 degrees and at
18,000 feet it photographs an area
about nine miles in diameter.
Commander Woodworth said it
is planned to map the Arctic coast
line from Point Barrow eastward
toward the Canadian border next
summer.
He left here last March for Point
Barrow by airplane. Supplies and
equipment had been landed at
Barrow the year before by ship ,
and members of the party had the |
task of hauling them over the ice I
and snow by sleds and caterpillar '
tractor 70 miles.

Discriminate
Against Alaska;
Land, Air Ami Sea
CHICAGO, (/P)—Governor -Er
nest Gruening of Alaska declared
Friday that the northern Territory
“has been, and is being, grossly
discriminated against” by the fed
eral government in “many mat
ters, including ground, sea and air
transportation,”
“This situation is not the fault
of any individual or political
party.” he told a meeting of the
Executive’s Club of Chicago, "It’s
just the system—the time-honored
system of Washington’s neglect
and lack of interest.”
Gruening said the present gov
ernment-established air system
connecting Alaska and the United
States is the “monopoly of one air
line providing only two routes, one
a direct line from the midwest,
the other a circuitous route from
the midwest to the west coast to
Alaska. Charges to and from Alas
ka by the direct route, which
takes 14 hours, are just as much as
those for the longer route, which
takes 24 hours.”
The governor said Alaska also
is being discriminated against with
regard to its highway system be
cause it "never has been included
in the U. S. highway law's.”
“We’ve had to foot our own
highway bills, without the benefit
of federal help, which the States
automatically receive by federal
law’,” he asserted.
A federal law making it manda
tory that all goods and passengers

“Friendship Train'
Leaves For Europe
HOLLYWOOD (A*)—The friend
hip train, bearing gifts from the
heart of America, to the empty
stomachs of Europe, leaves tonight
on a cross-country mission ex
pected to provide a Christmas
prosent. of countless boxcars of the
stuff that cheers most—food.
The train—an important phase
of this nation’s emergency pro
gram which Charle* Luckman says
will either succeed or fail by the
end of the year—is scheduled to
leave at 11 p.m. <PST> with be
tween 15 and 20 loaded boxcars.
Before it arrives in New York
Nov. 18, the load may number
over 200 boxcars, early response
indicates. The national friendship
train committee, headed by the
movies’ Harry M. Warner, hopes
the consignments will reach Eu
rope by late December—When the
need will probably be greatest.
“The learned fool writes his
nonsense in better language than
the unlearned, but still *tis non
sense.”
S. to Alaska be carried in Ameri
can-owned ships is “unfair and in
efficient,” he said.
He added that “U. S. shipping is
not the best, I regret to say, avail
able to us. Canadian facilities are
far better, but we are not allowed
to use them to and from our own
ports.
“While conditions like these ex
ist. naturally Alaska will be slow
to develop.”
