Slim young Austrians and Germans, neatly turned out in the Short-skirted outfit of spring: heavy old women in well mended shawls, and men whose English fathers like the first steps of a child queue up to prove they are Got Nazis. Most of them go without fear 10 Bow Street, for the hub of London's Metropolitan police is no Gestapo headquarters. In fret It has been heretofore too indulgent, critics assert, and now Britain's 60.000 aliens must be combed again for possible Nazi agents.

The story is under suspicion. Norway opened Britain's eyes to the danger of this "secret weapon" of the Nazis. A Parliament has been assured that Britain is prepared for any move of that' type.

HIDDEN FORTUNES SOUGHT BY MANY America Possesses Share of Legendary Caches Still Undiscovered. LAFITTE HOARD IS, ONE New York, May 30, America possesses Its legendary caches of buried treasures and lost gold mines which have templed countless hardy souls to search for them. Since early in the history of this country many legends have sprung up about bidden fortunes.

One of the most accessible is the old Lafitte hoard which is supposedly secreted somewhere near Galveston Island. The brothers Laftte, Jean and Plerre, performed prodigious feats around New Orleans early in the nineteenth century, With a swashbuckling crew ol 1,000 hearties. they then took possession of Galveston Island and made lite merry for shipping. Finally 3 United States warship showed its colors close by and the Lafites fled. Since then people have been digging for 1.000 miles in and near the island but so far as anyone knows the Lafitte hoard still lies buried.

In Colorado folks tell of 000,000 in yellow metal with a French brand on it. When the French owned Louisiana an exploring party found placer gold in the Rio Grande. They discovered it was trickling down from the high Rockies, near what became Leadville, Col. For five years the French burrowed like ants. They are said to have dug up a hoard of 000,000.

Then the Indians drove them out and they are supposed to have buried their fortune. Thirty-five of the party survived and some carried maps. The tales they told have lived in legend to this day and men still hunt for the French cache. Still sought, too. is the nuggetstudded Cavern del Oro (cavern of gold) Spanish legend says exists in Southern Colorado.

Peter Moser of Denver thought he had discovered it in 1932 when he came across a mysterious hole in the mountains of the Sangre de Cristo range. An ancient Spanish ladder led through a shaft 400 feot deep. An ancient Spanish single jack, such as was used by miners, was found--but no gold. Before the days of railroads. gold dust and nuggets were carried by stagecoach, Highwaymen waylaid them.

Such a tale WAS the one old timers tell about 000 in greenbacks and gold dust buried by the Reynolds gang on the Denver to Leadville stage line whey they were cornered, by a posse. One gunman was killed, two escaped and six were captured. On his deathbed John Reynolds drew a map of the spot where the treasure was burled. He said a bowle kolfe was driven Into 3 tree to mark the site. Recently a buzz saw whirred pleasantly, cutting up a Colorado forest near the old stagecoach road.

Can we always hope to have things handed to us in this wise? or are we willing to pay the price to help make a better' world. Let us pray that these sacrifices have not been la vain.

And we in turn take our stand and do our part for suffering humanity. Today lets thank God our beautiful, peaceful country--and pray that it may remain so, but it we see clearly we must fight to keep it -intact--then let us be ready, to do our part, As we place our flowers on the graves of our loved ones, let 'us also drop a tear for those who do not know where their loved ones die in this. terrible conflict of nation against nation: And let us remember to give thanks for all the blessings we enjoy In this land where war has not yet: struck.
