John Rigglils was with the National Guard troops that were called for guard duty at Goldville. South Carolina in 1934 by the then Governor I C, Blackwood. The troops were called out for yjuty as a result ( f a textile strike in that locality. Private Riggins succumbed to injuries received in an accident while on duty September 10, 1934. -r The. other Emblem of Honor award is asked for Miss Bessie Tidwell. who has four brothers in the army.

Jim*. * Secret of Deadly Gas Held by United States For 25 years the United States has kept the secret of gas whose effects are more powerful than many panzer divisions and air squadrons. gray-haired W. Lee Lewis, Evanstnn, 11L. inventor, i?M recently. Lewis, retired chemist and university professor, one-time eolonel of the chemical warfare service, said the war department has known of the gas ? Lewisite ? for 25 years, since its development just before the first World war ended. Lewis said he believed the United States would use the gas only for defense, although its potency for offensive use cannot be overestimated. He called it "a World war memento, but one whose importance two decades of chemical research have not erased." It was not produced in wholesale quantities until just before the armistice in 1918, Lewis said, and was not tried in the war. "But it is more humane than mustard and other gases used in the World war," he said, "in that its deadly effectiveness reacts more quickly. "Lewisite is infinitely superior to World war gases in several respects," he continued. "The gas has a low freezing point and can be used in remarkably cold regions. A second important factor is that an area contaminated with the gas remains contaminated for a long period of time. Rain or moist atmosphere will not dissipate its force." Roar of Airplanes Will Be Silenced, Says Expert The peace of our homes will not be disturbed in the future by the roar of airplanes skimming the roof tops, according to an aviation executive. Before long, he predicts, planes will make no more noise than automobiles. tiow will planes be silenced? i By reducing the speed with which the propellers rotate without reducing speed of shipe, says this authority, much noise will be eliminated. Secondly, new mufflers are being developed which reduce motor noise over 50 per cent. Propeller speeds could be reduced without decreased efficiency by geared engines, he further pointed out. Efficient mufflers already are available for smaller planes up to 90 horsepower. By directing, the exhaust upward, Instead of downward additional quiet is achieved. So, try to be patient when you are awakened at 4 a. m. to hear the drone of a sky liner fading away. And don't get nervous and sell your home if it happens to be directly beneath an airline. Five years from today you won't know it when a plane passes. More Teachers Tucked away at the most southern tip of Central America is Costa Rica, a nation which has more school houses than police stations, more school teachers than soldiers. The appropriation for education In Costa Rica is the largest per capita in Central America, an item which may well be the determining factor in keeping the number of revolutions to a minimum. Costa Ricans, in direct contrast to other Central American natives, are white rather than Indian. They are descendants of the Gallegos, the hardest working and the least fortune seeking of the Spaniards who settled in the Americas. Before the war the people leaned heavily on British and German purchases of bananas and coffee. German capital owned 20,per cent of the coffee plantations. When that trade dwindled the Costa Ricans appealed to the United States for aid. The U. S. responded with imports of half of the coffee crop and the Export-Import Bank loaned the nation more than $4,000,000 to complete their section of the Pan American highway. Soviet Vessel j Has Vital Job ] , v., Face* Perilou* Dutie*; ii? Breaking Trail Through FroMP Seat. SEATTLE.?Faced with the necessity of breaking a trail through the frozen seas of the Far North so American aid can be dispatched to Soviet armies via the "roof of the world," the 330-foot Russian icebreaker Krasin is undergoing repairs here." ~T ~ The Krasin is one of the largest ships of its type in the world, and its hull resembles that of 'a submarine. Driven by 10,000 horsepower, it is particularly adapted for the gruelling task. ' Under the command oipCapt. M. Markov, the Krafinl n%?i spring must open a trail via tne Bering sea, the Arctic ocean and into the White sea as far as Murmansk and Archangel. In 1922 the Krasin, with' Markov in command, was the first to negotiate this perilous route. Task Is Difficult. Ice-breaking in winter is a difficult task, even for a vessel the size of the Krasin, the captain explained, because ice closes astern almost instantly after the vessel's passage. No cargo ship could follow. In the spring, however, the "trail" will last days, then weeks, providing a vital supply line to the Soviet. The route covers 10,000 miles, entirely unhampered?to date?by enemy vessels. Markov was decorated by the Soviet government in 1934 for his heroism in command of the Cheloskin, an ice-breaker type of cargo vessel, when it foundered and was crushed in ice north of Siberia. Since then not a ship has been lost along the route. The Krasin's rounded sides and blunt bows enable it to rise on top of ice when the floes close in. Otherwise, the gigantic pressure of the floes would crush the vessel. By a rolling process, achieved with fill ing tanks on either side of the ship, the Krasin can break through ice with its keel. ! The Krasin's 10,000 horsepower is more than that of a giant ocean steamer. Doesn't Fear Japs. < Markov does not fear Japanese intervention in the north Pacific. "Japan is too weak to hinder our operations," he said. "We can hide in the ice, if nothing else, and there isn't a Japanese commander afloat who would dare follow us. The ice | is our friend." Likewise, Russia does not fear enemy intervention in the White sea, Markov said, adding: "There are 42 ice-breakers work- . ing the White sea. No enemy can I follow us in, because they have no ice-breakers." 2,000 Frogs Fly Atlantic To Help Great Britain LONDON.?Two thousand United States frogs have just been flown across the Atlantic for war-time service in Britain?the first in history to make such a hop?but 75 per cent arrived dead. The frogs were sent by the American Red Cross in a Ferry Command bomber for experimental and instructional use at St. Mary's hospital medical school. British scientists formerly bought frogs locally and on the continent, but the war cut off continental supplies and the blackout makes it impossible for frog catchers to use bright lights at night.
