Parfon f ft tf yfyf ff YY V" V Y Y Y 'V5! "MEW YORK. Virfjinio Gayda, II Duce's official spokesman, sounds like a Cre-eater, denouncing England for her "dark and treach erous role, but in person he isn't like that at all. I remember talking to him in the stu Signor Gayda Affects Pose of Fire-Eater dio of a British artist in Rome soon after Mussolini seized power. He is a gentle, scholarly man, hesitant in speech, giving one the impression of wide tolerance and understanding. Quite astonishing was his brass-throated brass-throated warning to the world, as II Duce's sounding board. He talks like Charles Evans Hughes and writes like General Johnson. He is accepted in Europe as merely Mussolini's Charlie McCarthy. McCar-thy. But he is a lot more than just a ventriloquist's dummy. One of the most powerful and brilliant journalists jour-nalists in Italy, he helped build the first scaffolding of fascism, and has been one of its cleverest rationalizers. rational-izers. He is at his best in what appears to be a scholarly condemnation of democracy and exaltation of fascism. But his journalistic alter ego is an expert dynamiter, and all II Duce has to do is to stick out his chin to get a devastating blast from Signor Gayda's typewriter. He is forty-two years old, educated educat-ed in law at Turin university. Turn ing from the law to newspaper work, he was the central and western west-ern correspondent Dace's Stooge Began Career as Attorney for Stampa, of Turin. He was in Russia when the war started, and was taken into the political and military service. Later, he was in the diplomatic service in Sweden and London. In 1921, he returned to active journalism, as editor of the Mes-sagero Mes-sagero of Rome and in 1928 became editor of the Giornale d'ltalia. While he maintained an intimate personal person-al friendship with Mussolini, it was II Duce's son-in-law, Count Ciano, who wired him for sound. In his spokesmanship, there is to be traced no official connection with the government. Any expedient retraction re-traction would involve only Signor Gayda, with no governmental face-saving face-saving necessary. Just now, he thunders against England, but with no such reverberation rever-beration as that of the Ethiopian antiphon of hate. Informed opinion in Europe is that Italy is turning more toward England because Eng land has the credit and raw materials ma-terials it needs and Hitler hasn't. T)LAND, round-faced Edward A.

"Leap for Life" Ey FLOYD GIBBONS Famous Headline Hunter HELLO EVERYEODY: Well, sir, we all know that firemen run into lots of adventures. adven-tures. That's all part .of a fireman's job. When the gong starts tapping out a signal well there's darned well likely to be an adventure at the end of the trip for somebody. And ten chances to one that adventure falls to. the lot of some smoke-eater who goes in with a hose and stays there long after everyone else is out. But today I'm telling you a fireman's story of an adventure, that didn't happen at a fire. William McQueen, of Valley Stream, Long Island, is the lad this adventure ad-venture happened to. Up to a certain point, this story is just like any other fireman's adventure yarn. It started in with the usual alarm, and the truck rolling out to respond to it. But as a rule the truck gets to the fire before the adventure starts. In Bill McQueen's case, Old Lady Adventure Ad-venture swung her haymaker a few minutes earlier than is her custom, and Bill had his adventure on the way to the blaze. Dil! is a member of the volunteer fire department out in Valley Stream. His dad is also a member of the same outfit and the way things turned out, that is a lucky break for Bill. They are bo'h attached to the Enjine Company Number 2, and the date of Bill's adventure is one he doesn't think he'll ever forget. It was December 29, 1931. The alarm came from somewhere out on the north side of the town. The men of Company 2 began a scramble for the fire house.. In no time at all, twenty men had gathered, and the truck rolled out of the engine house with all of them aboard. It Happened on a Busy Highway. The truck ran down the street and made a turn. It was necessary for them to go through a side street in order to reach the neighborhood of the fire. And half way down the side street, they had to cross Merrick Mer-rick road, a main traffic artery that ran through the town, and one of the busiest highways on Long Island. The truck plunged on down that street, with its siren screaming. The driver was trying to beat the whole doggone world to that fire. But Headfirst Over the Top of the Car He Went. no matter how hard a fellow tries, there always comes a time when he has to fail, and this was one of those times. Truck Number 2 didn't beat anybody to that fire on that December day. As a matter of fact, it didn't get there at all. The truck was approaching Merrick road and the driver began slowing slow-ing down. He had to make a left hand turn on Merrick and he began throttling down his motor so he could make it on all four wheels. The engine came to the intersection. "And it was at this point," says Bill McQueen, "that I got my first glimpse of the thing that was likely to be the cause of my death!" Down Merrick road, about a hundred feet to the left, was a - railroad crossing, and beyond that was a speeding car, hurtling along toward the fire truck at a speed of forty or fifty miles an hour. Bill got a quick glance at that car, and it didn't take him any time at all to figure out that that car couldn't possibly stop in time to avoid hitting the truck. It was just a question of where it hit the truck and Bill had his qualms about that, too. How Bill Figured His Jump. Bill was standing on the running Next to him was a large battery box, and behind him, between the battery bat-tery box and the large rubber suction hose that is carried on all fixe engines, en-gines, stood Bill's dad. Bill gauged the speed with which the two vehicles ve-hicles were going with another lightning glance, and as he did, he came to another terrifying conclusion. As near as he could figure out, that oncoming car was going to hit the truck just about at the spot where he was standing! The human mind works with the speed of lightning, and it didn't take Bill more than a couple of seconds at most to come to that conclusion, con-clusion, but that speeding car was moving almost as fast as a man's mind can think, and a hundred feet or so is no great distance. The car was almost on top of him now, and there was neither the time nor the opportunity to get off that running board and out of the way. And it was then that Bill's mind did some more fast and furious thinking. "There I was," he says, "d;rectly in the path of certain death. I could jump off the truck and take my chances on being able to dodge that car, or stay where I was and trust to luck that I might come out alive. Either way, I couldn't see myself having much of a chance. But there was a third course of action I could take. It was more daring than the other two, but I decided to try it. Dad's Shove Helped a Lot. "As the car roared onward, I braced myself on the running board and bejan timing the speed of its approach. When it was about three feet away, I leaped for my life!" Straight ahead, Bill jumped right over the top of the car. As he took off into the air he felt a violent shove. His dad had reached out with his hand to give him a little extra impetus. Head first over the top of that car he went, and Bill had reason then to thank his lucky star that cars, in this day, are built low and close to the ground. For he just did clear it. Behind him he heard the crash, as he tumbled over the car and landed in the road on the other side. He p.cked himself up dazed, and with a bruised knee, but otherwise unhurt, and looked back at the ruins of the fire truck. The part where he had been standing was smashed to bits! "When I looked at that mass of twisted and bent metal," Eill says, "I couldn't help thinking what would have happened to me if I'd remained there." WNU Service. Spiders Invented Hinges Bsfore the Time of PIan In making a home or nest, the trapdoor spider digs into the earth, biting the soil and forcing bits of it upward with her legs. The hole is dug to a depth of several inches, and then it is lined all around with silk which the spider spins. Tne lid is made of layers of soil (often sand) and layers of spider silk. It is firmly made, and is of circular shape. One-third or one-fourth one-fourth of it is fastened to an edge of the T.ole. Closing the trapdoor, the spider has a snuj home for herself and her young. The top of the trapdoor is covered in such a way that it matches the ground above. Sometimes Some-times it is covered with mos3. The trapdoor can be lifted a little X board, on the left side of the truck.' bit, so the spider can "peep out" and see whether anv insects are j close by. If one is in reach, the spider runs out, catches it, and drags it in. No outside web is spun by the trapdoor sp:ders, for no web is needed. Enough "game" is obtained by laying in wait. Trapdoor spider3 have enemies of their own. declares a writer in the I Cleveland Plain Dealer, and must be on their guard against them. We are told that if an enemy tries to lift the lid, the spider clings to it on the side opposite to the hinge. If the enemy is strong enough to lift it anyway, the spider still may be able to escape. Often there is a tunnel from the nest to another trapdoor, and this can be used as a means of getting away.
