They were somewhat uneasy in the throne-like chairs set up for them at the city hall, and after hearing praise for their feat, they were at a loss for words with which to express their thanka. They charged the counselor of the American embassy, De Witt C. Poole, to speak for them in German.

All Berlin took on a holiday aspect many hours before the word came that the airmen had taken off from Klinge for the 70-mile hep to Berlin. The Tempelhofer airdrome crowded, bands played, and there was constant scanning of the skies for the approach of the Alers. Then three loud blasts announced that the CoJumble had been sighted and soon small specks became visible in the horizon. The excitement grew the specks became larger, to reach fever heat when the Columbia circled overhead and came to rest on the field. Fifteen German planes convoyed them into the city, but the roar of the motora could not drown the chorus of "hochs" of the 150,000 persona spread over and near the Apart from the statement that he Intends to remain in Berlin about week, Chamberlin has divulged nothing about hie plans.

(P)-Jack Pickford, motion picture actor, sailed on the Berengaria for Paris early today to permit his wife, Marilyn Miller, stage actress, to divorce him. Miss Miller, who preceded her husband to New York, remained in the city. She has brought a "divorce trousseau" here. "New York clothes are the best in the world," she said.

Instead of buying clothes in Paris she is taking to Paris new togs bought in New York. Whether Jack and Marilyn met or communicated before he left was not disclosed. He said she would sail Saturday. "Marilyn and he added, "are perfectly friendly and there is nothing to argue about. She is the most lovely girl I have known; she is superb.

"Marilyn has marvelous character and is not only agreeable, but a dandy girl." He said in answer to a question that he had no thought of getting married again: "Let me get my divorce first," he said, "and, by the I he added. "don't forget that 4 man's best friend is his newspaper." Then he rolled up a newspaper and made several jabs at reporters. One of his jabs landed, sending the reporter to the floor.

(P)- Electric power has been the greatest contributing factor toward the increase in the emeiency and produce tivity of the American worker, Presi. dent William Green of the American Federation of Labor today declared in an address before the National Electric Light associations' annual convention here. "There is no industry in America," he said, "which occupies a more strategio position than the electric power industry. The industry will succeed even tho other Industries be affected by violent or modcrate economic or industrial changes. "American labor welcomes the extended use and development of electric power and service.

Labor offers its service, its skill and its constructive effort in building and in extending the Industry no that the human race may enjoy in full measure the advantages and opportunities of modern civilization." Col. Dwight F. Davis, secretary of war, today outlined a proposed plan for operating electric power plants in case of war, or other national emergency. "MATTY'S" SON AMONG BUCKNELL GRADUATES LEWISBURG, June 8. (AP)- Among the 202 graduates of Bucknell university today was Christy thewson, son of the famous baseball pitcher, who also claimed Bucknell as his alma mater.

Organized baseball did not overlook the occasion for it was represented at the commencement exercises by John Heydler, president of the National league and a personal friend of the Mathewson family. Mr. Heydler came here early today from the west and before attending the exercises visited Lewisburg cemetery where the famous baseball player is buried and laid a wreath on his grave. "Young Matty" received the degree of bachelor of science in electrical engineering. He has taken a position with the General Electric company at Schenectady, N.

Y. Dr. Lincoln Hulley, Bucknell alum- The plan provides for taking over shortage of power for essential needs of the output of plants only when a exists or threatens. An "emergency power director," would be appointed by the president, and in time of war would be responsible for the effective utilization of the power facilities of the country. He would be assisted by an executive committee, nominated for the most part by the association.

If it was found necessary for the government to undertake actual operation of plants, the existing organization of the companies taken over would be utilized. "In time of war the national energies must not be taken out of the hands of the private agencies, ex. perienced in their use, and put in the hands of a gigantic official machine," Colonel Davis said. "Such a machine could not manage them as effectively. Private initiative, energy and resourcefulness must not be thrown aside and the vital and complicated processes of production and transpor: tation lowered.

Yet the energies of all must be directed to their effective use for the good of the government. Certain controls are essential to accomplish that purpose." nus, and president of the John B. Stetson university, Deland, delivered the commencement address.

-Even a "gentleman burglar," apparently must live in the manner in which a gentleman is accustomed. Arthur B. Barry, who has admitted to police he was one of te two "gentlemen burglars" who robbed the Long Island home of Jesse L. Livermore of $83,000 in jewelry, is said by the police to have maintained three homes, a chauffeur and to have entertained many of Long Island's elite at his country house in Ronkonkomma. There the 28-year-old "gentleman burglar" resided for the last three summers with Mrs.

Anna Blake, striking blonde, 20 senior, as Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Gibson. He was looked upon as a likeable chap and the revelation of his criminal record SAYS JEWS HERE FOR GOOD PURPOSE Existence Not Accident, Rabbi Cohen Declares In "Feast of Weeks" Address. The existence of Jewish people is tended for a high purpose and is not merely an accident or haphazard phenomenon, Rabbi Meyer Cohen declared in speech in the synagog of the Congregation of the Sons of Israel, yesterday, in celebration of "Feast of Weeks" or Jewish memorial day.

"The existence of the Jewish people is intended for a high purpose," Rabbi Cohen began. "It is both illogical and false to assert that Jewish existence is merely an accident or a haphazard phenomenon which, perpetuates itself by the sheer force of the instinct of self -preservation. For this would not be enough reason for Jew to endure the pain and suftering which many of our brethren and sisters have to dure in some countries. "If a Jew is only an accidental offshoot from the main stream of tty, why en bearing the stamp of contumely oppression and repudiation? Why not be merged with the main stream and thus be rid of the pain and humiliation which survival must tall?" he asked. "The martyrdom of the Jew Is fetile unless it is actuated by an unshakable conviction that the Jew is here in this world for pose, that he has a unique contribution to make civilisation and that the miracle of Jewish survival, one of the great miracles of all time, is the Anger of God in history." Continuing, he asked: "What is the Jews' contribution to civilization?" and then declared "Isaiah answers this question in brief: 'Behold! My servant whom I uphold, my elect in whom my soul delights He shall make the right to so forth to the nations.

To open the blind eyes, to bring forth the prisoners from the dungeon, and those that sit in the darkness out of the prison Isa. 42, 1-6-7. "When Israel ascended the stage of history, he found the earth covered with darkness. Chaos and lawlessness prevailed. The social sphere of man was roverned by the same principles that governed the animal kingdom.

In this struggie for existence the physically strongest survived. Our globe was inhabited by savages who were feeding upon the flesh of their weaker neighbors but Israel introduced law and order. 'Thou shalt not 'thou shalt not steal' and shalt not commit adultery' are the initial requisites of Jewish morality. But Israel also taught the nations the sublime principle of "love thy neighbor our rabbis is the highest expression our habbis 18 the highest expression of Jewish ethics. It must be remarked that the term neighbor is not restricted to Jews only.

it includes men of all creeds." Rabbi Cohen concluded by asking: "What Is the purpose of Jewish ence?" This question is answered in the Biblical Ventence "And you shall be unto me kingdom of priests and holy nation. We are nation dedicated the service of God. It is our duty to proclaim the unity, holiness and righteousness of God, both by our confession and by our mode of living. It is our purpose to consecrate our lives and regulate them in perfect accord with God's will, defined in our Torah, or law."

Announcement was made today of the sale of the Tallman garage on Bouth Main street, just south of Corlies avenue, successfully operated by Randolph G.

The Tallman garage was known thruout this and other states by motorists for its fine appointments and it up-todate equipment for handling and storing The closed in less than a week.

He was asked it his father's business was in the market and replied that he would call his father and ascertain. Mr. Tallman stated that he did not care to sell but would consider an offer if the price were satisfactory. Word went to Freehold and two days later Joseph D. Davison of Hightstown came here and looked the place over.

The following day Davison's wife inspected the Tallman garage and next day the transfer was effected. Mr. Davison was associated in the dry goods business at Hightstown for more than 21 years, succeeding his tather who also conducted that line of business for another 20 years at that place. For 18 months, Mr. Tallman said today, Davison had scouts searching for a suitable business property at or near the shore, preferably a good garage business.

Real estate men at Freehold were requested to give offers but nothing in that vicinity appealed to the prospective buyer. Mr. Tallman plans to retire from active business, making his home in Ocean Grove. For many years he lived in apartments over the garage. and rec.ntly rebuilt the front of the garage and conetructed what is sidered by many one of the most atractive apartments on South Main street.
