ARDMORK, Oklo.. June 2<i </tn
- Gene Autry, (tklahonta's ringing
cowboy who has boon Kittin# on
top of Hollywood's lun mail heap
for quite a spell now, plans to
seek new laurels with the "fin-
est rodeo show in the world."
Autry announced he had vir-
tually completed negotiations for
the purchase of a 1,500-acrc
ranch northeast of here to be used
as headquarters lor his show,
which he expects to take on the
road by next fall or sprint!
Autry, who ielt today for Hol-
lywood, added that lie would
spend between $50,0(10 and $75,000
building up the troupe which,
would be quartered at the ranch.
Autry said he also imped to de-
velop eventually u dude ranch iu
connection with his rodeo head
quarters.
He explained that he selected
Oklahoma lor the base largely be-
cause it was "centrally located
and not too severe iri winter nor
too hot in summer." He added
thai he ais wanted to be back
among his Oklahoma friends,
many of whom knew him dcring
the days when he was a tele-
Kiaph operator.
On a hot summer night in 1025,
when ne was on the late shift al
the Frisco railway's Chelsea sia
lion, Autrv «r>| his inspiration to
tackle show business.
He was plunkinu his guitar and
singing some cowboy ballads late
on a summer"1 night when a strang-
er stepped quietly through the
door
He listened intentlv until the
song was finished, then said.
"You're pretty good, boy. keep
at it and try your hand on the
stage some time "
The stranger left a telegram
lie wired to New Yi>rk and slipped
out before Autry had read
through the message Hv the time
he got t'> the signature, which
was "Will Roger., the stranger
had disappeared.
Gene probably still would be a
telegraph operator if he hadn't
received that encouragement from
the late cowboy humorist.
Plans Strike Snag
For Indian Pageant
Plans fur the Adobe Walls In-
dian paMeant hit a snag today
when it was disclosed al the
Chamber of Commerce luncheon
that Indian agencies involved in
the pageant plans were having
difficulty receiving official action
lor the proposed event.
Consequently the Chamber
moved to defer action on further
plans for the event, tentatively
scheduled for Aug 21-22, until
the agencies could give a defi-
nite date on which the pageant
c« uid be held
Before the meeting adjourned

ord as thanking Hugh Miller for

Bringing the matter close to home
Re\ Glenn used the Tennessee
mountaineers as an example with
their secluded ways and illiter-
acy.
"We can take a lesson from
Greece who remained 'isolated so
Idiik that it was too late to de-
lend themselves when they got
into trouble. Once they were the
leaders <>f all civilized culture
hut isolationism changed all thai,"
Glenn said
The m«st significant remark
about isolationism made by Glenn
was. "Isolationists fail to pro-
gress and when trouble come
they have no allies to help them."
The United States during 1039
imported .372 pounds of
black pepper .

Deadly Raids
Into Germany
LONDON, June 26 Bri
tain's RAF reported the destruc-
tion of nine more German fighter
planes over the channel and
northern France today when it
returned there for another shat-
tering raid to reinforce its mas-
tery of the daylight skies in that
area. Three British fighters were
missing.
Only a few hours after the RAF
wound up the greatest 24-hour
offensive It has yet attempted —
a continuous assault in which 400
to 300 planes were said to have
participated — the roar pf air-
craft could be heard along the
south coast as planes raced across
the channel to hammer Nazi-oc-
cupied territories again.
The sky was overcast and mist
shrouded the French coast but
prolonged explosions could be
heard in the distance and later the
planes could be seen winging
home.
Yesterday's great raid culminat-
ed in another smashing air attack
on western Oermany. The short
summer nights were «aid to be
forcing the RAF to concentrate on
western Germany but when the
night lengthens they expect to
reach nut to the virtually un-
touched eastern section.
Bremen and Kiel were the main
objectives last night.
The night raids on Germany
were the 15th in as many nights,
and the British broadcasting cor-
poration declared that the RAF
was Just hitting its stride.
"Th? most gigantic air offen-
sive known in the world's history'
is only beginning, the broadcast-
ing corporation declared.
While the RAF smashed at the
Reich, the Germans — apparently
occupied with operations In the
cast — contented themselves with
light raids on points in southern
England.
The Canadian province of Que-
bec is more than twice as large
as Texas.

Pope Pleads For
'Sell-Sacrifice'
VATIC1AN CITY, June 26 —</Pi
•— Pope Pius XII called today for
"self-sacrifice" to escape the flood
of "Paganism sweeping over peo-
ples today" when he made a 15-
minute radio speech to the clos-
ing session of the national cuch-
aristic congress at St. Paul, Minn.
The Popo, speaking in English
from his private library, declar-
ed that the Church was "per-
secuted in some of its members"
so that it was "hard to say how
far-reaching the suffering will
be."
He said the "current of pagan-
ism" was 'breaking down self re-
spect and decency, undermining
Christian culture."
The Pope stressed that Christ
had sacrificed his life for all
mankind and the Pontiff then ask-
ed: "How can we fail to love all
men for whose love Christ died
on the cross,"
He concluded with an apostolic
benediction on those attending
the St. Paul congress. This was in
Latin.

NEW YORK, June 26 —i/P>—
A Berlin broadcast heard here re-
ported today that Germany's
pocket battleship Admiral Scheer
had been raiding British shipping
and had sunk several vessels. The
Admiral Scheer, 10,000 tons, is a
sister ship of the Admiral Graf

WASHINGTON. June 26 —i/Pi
— The navy asked authority to-
day to hold enlisted men in the
service beyond the time of their
present enlistment If Congrats de-
clares the national interests are
imperiled.
Rear Admiral C. W. Nimitz told
the Senate Navy committee that
the navy was "suffering from a
tremendous dilution of personnel
on ships" because of the rapid ex-
pansion of the fleet. The time
might be near, he said, when dis
charges of enlistod men who had
completed their service should be
halted.
The chief of the bureau of navi-
gation urged speedy approval of
legislation he said would apply to
navy enlisted men the same rule
that now holds for one-year army
consoripts — that they may be
kept in service longer if congress
orders It.
