By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, January 4—A down- pour of rain almost washed out what was planned as a hero's welcome yes- terday for Lawrence B. Simpson, young American seaman who admitted to a Berlin court that he tried to over- throw the Hitler government. The small group which braved s drenching to cheer him on his arrival from Germany contrasted with the crowds which frequently demonstrated, sometimes violently, in his behalf in various American cities during the past. year and a half—his term of imprison- ment in Germany. A glight blond Communist enthusiast from Seattle, who speaks fluent Ger- man, Simpson was the only passenger on the liner President Roosevelt. An able-bodied seaman, he was placed aboard ship by American Consul Francis Lane to work his way home, but refused. The ship's owners, the United States Lines, explained that while the Presi- dent Roosevelt normally is in passenger trade, she is not being so used at present. Thus Simpson had no fellow voyagers. “Captain Very Decqnt.” “I told the captain I understood there was a strike of seamen in New York,” said Simpson. *“Capt. Oakley was very decent. I was assigned to & third-class cabin.” Leaders of the International Labor Defense, the National Committee for the Defense of Political Prisoners and the Marine Strike Committee were among the group which then carried | Simpson to a taxi. It drove across the street to the strike headquarters. | he was arrested in Germany “for high treason, which is not liking the way | Hitler looks.” He said he spent 12 of 18 months’ lmpmcnment in “in solitary con- finement.” “I was never beaten and they treated me fairly enough, but were t.ryuu to force me to answer questions,” Simp- son said. “What they did was keep . | me in constant fear of death by indi- | | rect threats.” Gifford Cochran was member of & In an interview there, Simpson said | When fire broke out behind the instrument panel of his plane, Lieut.

MORMON RELIEF COLONY PLANNED New Mexico Tract Expected to Care for 75 Needy Families. By the Associated Press. SALT LAKE OITY, January é.— The Latler-day Saints’ Church set out today upon an ambitious coloniza- tion venture in New Mexico designed to remove deserving families from re- Hef. David A. Smith, counselor in the church’s presiding bishopric, sald ar- rangements are “practically complete” for settlement of 75 needy families on a 3,000-acre communal project in the fertile Bluewater Valley, near Gallup, N.

MAN AND WOMAN SHOT BY BANDIT ON STREET Highwayman Snatches Purse and Then Escapes in Stolen Taxicab. A lone bandit shot down s colored man and woman early todsy after forcing the woman to give up her purse and then escaped in a stolen taxicab. The shooting occurred at New Hampshire avenue and 8 street. Victims of the shooting were Thelma Buckner, 31, of 1129 Fairmont street, and Linton Mordicia, 22, of 1806 New Hampehire avenue. The woman was taken to Emergency Hospital suffer- ing from wounds in the leg and hand, while her companion was taken to Preedmen's Hospital with bullet wounds in the stomach. Police said the taxicab used by the bandit, who also was colored, had been stolen earlier today from s park- ing lot at Tenth and V streets. The cab later was recovered. sir o sy tem, Banep B Only a Cold?>—Don’t F ool Y ourself ‘The purchase price was not dis- closed, but W. H. Morris, Gallup real estate dealer, said recently the cost would be about $79,000. At the church’'s world headquarters here the graying, keen-eyed Bishop Smith explained impoverished church families will be rehabilitated by set- tlement upon 40, 60 or 80 acre tracts. “Co-operative living will be a part of the set-up,” he asserted. “The settlers will co-operate in buying, marketing and producing, muche«in the manner of present co- operative groups throughout the West. In this manner they will be able to reduce expenses, increase farm in- come.” —Copyright, A. P. Wirephoto. Colds should be checked before they become deep-seated. Colds that hang on—stubborn colds—may lead to a more serious iliness. Start at once taking Father John's Medicine, used over 80 years as & treatment for colds and bronchial irritations. In 9 cases out of 10, Dr. Prederic Damrau, New York, proved by clinical tests that Father John's Medicine shortened the duration of colds. In addition to this proof of value, its use for 80 years is dependable and convincing evidence. Be prepared—keep a bottle on hand. 7™ FATHER JOHNS MEDICINE COI.DS We Salute 1937 with a Sale of SOCIAL SECURITY The past . . . . the pressnt. . . . the future ocial security, as a phrase, has recently come strongly into the public mind, as a result of the enactment into law by | the United States Government of the principle of old-age annu- ities for those who earn wages and salaries. As a matter of fact, social security is one of the oldest of human ideals. From the early records of man, we find evidence that he stored up in good years against the coming of bad years. In modern times, man is using Life insurance for this purpose. In fact, life insurance is now a triple measure of social security —a backlog against emer- gencies, a means of saving toward old age, and a protection to his wife and children against the consequences of his death. Particularly has this become true in our eountry, for America, with 7% of the world’s population, now holds 709 of the world’s life insurance. In 1937, as we emerge from the greatest depression in modern history, there are more than 64 million Bfe insurance policyholders in America, who have built wp a savings fund of 20 billion dollars in cash values, providing | over 100 billion dollars in death benefits. The new social security program of the | Federal Government will perform an invaluable function. It will provide a more universal backlog against the disability of old age. Still more important, it will suggest to millions of ‘ambitious men, who are not content to go toward old age without provision for more than the standard of living available to all, the desirability of building more adequately for the future. It will also suggest the urgent necessity of protecting wives and children against the death of their wage-earner. The result will, we believe, be a sharp increase in the use of life insurance, both for protection and for building a larger reserve for old-age retirement. It is a matter of record that the institution of life insurance came through the depres- sion unscathed. Life insurance stood firmly by its contracts with policyholders, justi- fying the faith of millions of people, many of whom had placed their entire future se- curity in the hands of the life companies. Within the next few weeks, these stewards of the savings and economic safety of the American people will report to their policy- holders. This year, as throughout the entire depression, the annual statements of the life companies will be pleasant reading to the men and women who are using life insurance to build security.
