"We believe it to be the case that some newspapers in such countries hitherto consistently friendly to this country and France have given instructions to suspend their own services to London because the information available to their representatives here is ether so meager as not to be worth the cost of transmission at all or else it is so long delayed as to be worthless when it is received."

It is simply chaos."

Thomas Aquinas R. C. Church, Flatlands, and burial in Holy Cross Cemetery, Sees U. Soviet Peace Aims Alike The Communist party believes that the "common attitude" of the United States and Russia with regard to the European war must inevitably result in collaboration to secure world peace, Earl Browder, general secretary, declared last night before 18,000 persons at a rally in Madison Square Garden, Manhattan. Mr.

Browder read a letter, which he said was sent yesterday to President Roosevelt and members of dR Congress, expressing the Communist party's "firm accord" with the policy of American neutrality. Both the United States and the Soviet Union, the letter said, "are neutral toward the rival imperialist ambitions and interests; both are deeply sympathetic to the peoples whose national independence is in jeopardy." A resolution was adopted praising the German-Russian non-aggression pact for having disengaged Japan from the Rome-Berlin axis and for having prevented "another Munich," and urging United States to call "a world peace conference to bring about a democratic peace." AKC Stud Book Aids Fanciers America's present dominant position in the breeding of pure-bred dogs may be traced to a greater study of the family histories of various strains within different breeds. In the past, particularly in the boom years, fanciers in this country were satisfied to pay high prices abroad for show specimens with big reputations. The depression stopped practice to a great extent. Today the emphasis is on breeding and fanciers in the United States have been making increasing use of the facilities offered by the American Kennel Club for tracing the histories of individual lines of pure-bred dogs.

The AKC Stud Book has been serving the records of pure-bred predogs in the United States for more than 60 years, and all the volumes of this stud book, from the beginning, are available in the library of the governing body here. Not only are the American records kept in handy form, but the shelves of the library also hold the stud books of most of the foreign nations that recognize pure-bred dogs. Thus a breeder, breed, may carry his investigations back for as many years as may be necessary to his breeding program. The general public long has had a misconception of what is meant by registry in a stud book. Because a dog is so registered it does not mean that this dog is necessarily of show caliber.

It means merely that his ancestors are known. N. J. Ring Crown Won by Stolz Newark, N. Sept.

12 (AP)-Allie Stolz, Newark, won the New Jersey State featherweight boxing crown last night by outpointing Morris Parker, Newark Negro, in a savage ten-round bout. Referee Paul Cavalier awarded seven rounds to the 21-year-old Stolz. former State amateur champion, called one even and marked two for Parker, former State and national simonpure titleholder. Parker never seemed to recover from fourth-round attack and during the last four anzas, which were easily Stolz', he seemed on the verge of going down at least once in each session. The National Boxing Association had annou-ced before the fight the winner would be ranked among the three leading contenders for the national featherweight title held by Joey Archibald of Rhode Island.

In the six-round semi-final. Pedro Lorenzo, 128, Philadelphia, outpointed Richie Carangelo, 125, Newark. Wilce Riviera, 118, New York, outpointed Earl Mintz, 120, Jersey City, in a scheduled four-rounder. Marden Talks to Jury; Clears Self of Contempt Ben Marden, night club proprietor at Fort Lee, N. has cleared himself of contempt and informed the Manhattan Federal Grand Jury investigating criminals of what went on in the private room of his club.

Marden faced six months in prison unless he purged himself of the contempt charge. Federal Judge William H. Barrett in Manhattan, who found Marden guilty of contempt, gave him until, yesterday to tell the grand jury it wanted to know. What he told was not learned. The trial of Louis (Lepke) Buchalter has been tentatively set for Oct.

Is a knowledge of funerals and their cost, Funeral Directors 433 Nostrand Ave. STerling 3-7700 More than 200 Jewisn readers paid tribute to the memory of Louis Marshall in a pilgrimage to his grave in Salem Fields Cemetery yesterday on the tenth anniversary of his death.

Marshall "was one of greatest minds and souls that the Jewish people of America ever had, equally devoted to to to to to to to to to Jewish rights, to Judaism and to Jewish education," the message read. "It is well that the newer Jewish generations of America should rededicate themselves to the kind of Jewish work that Louis Marshall did and if in every other generation at least one man of his type should arise it would be worth while, the training of many, many thousands for such leadership." The service was sponsored jointly by the American Jewish Committee, the Congregation Emanu-El and the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, in all of which Mr. Marshall was active at the time of his death. OTHER GROUPS REPRESENTED Other organizations represented at the rites included the Central Conference of American Rabbis, the Association of the Bar of the City of New York, the Federation for the Support of Jewish Philanthropic Societies of New York City, B'nai Brith, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

Radio-Phone Service To Holland Opened The American Telephone Telegraph Co. inaugurated direct radiotelephone service at 10:30 a.m. today between America and Holland.

A call from northeastern United States to Holland costs 50, slightly more from other parts of this country.
