Lamoureaux of Fitchburg, Mass., and his English wife, Ve-

promptly shipped out for England. His anxiety to spend
Christmas with his wife and baby daughter caused him to
leap from the ship as it passed five miles off-shore from Liver-
pool. There the Hero-Leander parallel ends. Leander drowned
attempting to swim to Hero and she “threw herself into the
sea.” Lamoureaux was taken out of the water exhausted after
swimming a couple of miles. He was turned over to the Brit-
ish immigration officers who ordered his deportation to the

Of Success of

scarred London, the general as-
sembly of the United Nations will
convene for its first meeting
Thursday amid hopes it will suc-
ceed where the old League of
Nations failed.
Just how far America, Brit-
ain and Canada are willing to
go in disclosing information
about the atom is to be dis-
cussed thoroughly by the gen-
eral assembly some time af-
ter Prime Minister Attlee
launches the opening session.
The issue of safeguarding Amer-
ican atom secrets may force a big
power review of the atomic energy

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7—)—
After nine busy days at home, Sec- Byrnes arrives and before the
retary of State Byrnes leaves today
for London to attend the United Na-
tions assembly and. tackle world
problems unsolved at Moscow.
Among other things, Byrnes will
try to get:
1. An international agree-
ment on the Dardanelles ques-
tion, thus leasing Russo-Turk-
ish relations.
2. Agreement for a Soviet-
British- American commission
to study the complicated prob-
lems of oil rich Iran.—•
3. British and Russian as-
surances that “full security”
will be guaranteed in opera-
tions of the United Nations
United Nations begin working out
international controls for atomic
energy, in- line with the formal
resolution submitted by Britain on
behalf of the United States, Cana-
da. Russia, France, China and her-
self.
(In Washington, a state depart-
ment spokesman said last night
that Byrnes had heard nothing of
an impending big power review
of the Moscow atom plan. Byrnes
leaves today for London).

MANILA, Jan. 4—(PP)—Leaves
from a correspondent’s notebook:
Harvey B. Dunn is "the man
with the missing finger.”
. They were separated 37 years
ago and Harvey would like to for-
get the whole business but people
won’t let him. He now is 51 and
has been in show business since
he was 16. He is in the cast of the
USO show, "Three Men on a
Horse."
Sooner or later, people look at

that he had been run over by a

off by a woodpecker but so many
of his questioners gave him dis-
satisfied looks he' decided to make
a clean breast of it Now when
anybody asks him about his miss-
ing digit, he just whips out a
printed card which reads:
“The story of my finger cut off

"I can write just as well now,
if not better, than before the acci-

"I swear this is a true statement

cerely yours, Harvey B Dunn.”
That ends all questioning.

is Lewis Charles. He collects

redoubtable weapon, Charles said
the former owner affectionately
had carved:

One Red Cross girl with large
feet has decided to forego buying
a pair of prettily painted and
carved wooden clogs which are
among the most typical of Philip-
pine souvenirs.
Her first try unnerved her She
walked into one native shoecaker’s
shop and asked him how long it
would take him to make her a
pair.
He studied her feet and then said
doubtfully:
"Oh. mum, we d have to send
away for the lumber.”
