C, EASTER GREETING NEW GOAL OF POPE Enters Second Stage of lil- ness After Doctors Give Injections. BY the Associated Press. VATICAN CITY, December 26.— With indomitable fortifude, Pope Pius XI set himself the goal today of standting before Easter throngs on the balcony of St. Peter" Twice yesterday Dr. Amanti Milani, his physician, gave the holy father injections after noting physical de- pressions which were believed to have been an after-effect of the half-hour broadcast the stricken Pontiff made Thursday from his sickbed. The Pope, approaching his 80th birth anniversary, flaunted his doc- tors' advice to make his radio appeal for peace. 1 Today, apparently, he began a sec- ond stage in the illness which forced him to bed, partly paralyzed in both legs and suffering a complication of | old-lge infirmities, just three weeks Vmc&n sources said he seemed | determined to carry on at least until | Easter, when he was resolved to ap- | pear before the faithful in Rome. | Although he appeared more sub- missive to his physicians’ orders to remain quietly in bed for at leuzf another month, attendants said he | had begun aiready to foresee the pos- | sibility of pronouncing his benediction on the Easter pilgrims. He slept more peacefully last night | than usual since his illness, but well- | informed sources ascribed his repose more to mental content after his arduous speech and its reception throughout the world than to any | alleviation of his serious physical con- dition. He did not arise yesterday for Christ- | mas mass, but assisted from his bed | day in deep meditation and prayer. s Prisoner (Continued From First Page.) the light of the burning jail about 3| am. and gave the alarm. When citi- | zens arrived, the roof was falling in and no attempt to rescue Garrett could be made. | Dr. J. E Haynesworth, county coroner, investigated the cfise, but could not be found later for com- ment. The chxrred body was taken from the embers and prepared for burial. Survivors include the widow, nine children and a brother. Amiss said he told Tom Charrett he could get his brother out if he would be responsible for him, and Tom re- plied that “if he had enough cover, he’'d better stay till morning.” ‘Tom Garrett said he would press an | inquiry into his brother’s death.

His wife was not at home at the time, Fire Chief L. B.

RICHMOND, December 26.-—James W. Phillips, assistant State commis- sioner of public welfare, said today the department will make an imme- diate investigation of the Dillwyn jail fire in which John E. Garrett, 58- year-old colored man, was burned to | death early Christmas day. The blaze, which razed the unat- tended town lockup, was almost iden- tical to the Colonial Beach Jail fire in which & prisoner died. “The basic fault in & system under which such tragedies occur lies in the fact that the jails are unat- tended,” Mr. Phillips said. “Regard- less of what type of fire protection the individual jail may have an at- tendant should be on constant duty while prisoners are being held.” Gov.
