Radio cars throughout the city were given a description of the defendant. Sergeant Fitzgerald searched In the vicinity of the river and spotted the youth on the bank near Kenwood avenue apparently debating whether he should attempt to swim to safety.

80 (Associated Press) Junk Dealer Denies Strike to End Soon 125 Workers Picket Yards Here in Battle for Closed Shop Despite persistent reports that a labor-management conference is In the offing, the manager of one of five strike-closed Binghamton junk companies today declared that "settlement is not in sight." The strike affects approximately 125 workers. Unionized employes of Levene's Sons, Rozen Brothers, Rozen and Sons and the Ace Bag and Metal were picketing the yards from which they walked out after managers refused to closed shop contracts with Local 693 of the International Brotherhood of Chauffeurs, Teamsters, Stablemen and Helpers. Contracts call for wages of BO cents an hour for machinists and 40 cents an hour for laborers and 54 hours a'week. Edward Lynn, president of the local union, announced today that "we're just sitting tight; it's the management's move now." But Mr. Rozen today Issued a prepared statement which read: "Settlement not in sight.

We have discontinued all our power lines and electricity in our burlap and cotton bag factory at 1 Carroll street. Our wool, rag and wiping cloth factory at 28 and 30 Lisle avenue and our scrap iron and scrap metal yards at 1 Sanford street are bping kept closed until further notice. Our office force is continuing to work." More than 70 Levene's Sons workers struck Monday, some 40 em Take Lead in Opening Rally Gold Mining Issues, Rails and Coppers Also Out in Front COMMODITIES UNEVEN Consolidated Edison, General Motors Meet Handicaps Xew York, Sept. 30 (Asswiated Press) Tho New York stock list was at its best in the first hour today with gold mining issues, steels, coppers and rails taking the buying play for gains running to around 2 points or more. Mild selling appeared later and extreme pains were reduced here and there.

Dealings were exceptionally quiet. Jlelpful was an upturn in rail bonds and improvement in the principal foreign securities markets. Commodities were a trifle uneven. Gold storks such as Dome, Mc-Intyre, Homestakc and Alaska Juneau wore given a lift as the red metal price moved up in London and gold hoarding abroad was reported on the increase. In favor the greater part of the session were U.

S. Steel. Bethlehem, Youngstown Sheet and Tube, Chrysler. Mack Truck, U. S.

Rubber, Goodrich, Anaconda, Kenne-cott, Cerro de Pasco, International Nickel, Howe Sound, U. S. Smelting, Santa Fe, N. Y. Central, Atlantic Coast Line.

Pullman, Union Pacific, Case, International Harvester, Deere. Oliver, Douglas Aircraft, United Aircraft, American Can. Allied Chemical. Phillips Petroleum, Amerada. Atlantic Refining, Radio, Loew's, Celanese, Crown Cork, Canada Dry and Union Carbide.

Handicaps were encountered by Consolidated Edison, St. Joseph I.ead. National Lead and General Motors. Meeting of rail management and brotherhood representatives with the Federal mediator at Chicago encouraged renewed support for carrier shares on hope the wage controversy Is near settlement. Bank clearings for the week ended yesterday were down 5.9 per cent from the corresponding month in the preceding year, which was a retarding factor.

The majority of the motors had difficulty getting anywhere as announcements of price hoists on new 193 8 models for the purpose cf offsetting, at least partially, higher labor and materials costs, aroused thoughts of possible resistance on the part of potential buyers. Automotive officials, however, seemed confident of satisfactory distribution during the coniinsr year. Items viewed as constructive marketwlse included: A Joint -survey of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic com merce and the National Association of Credit Men disclosed net sales of 525 manufacturers in Au gust registered an Increase of almost 14 per cent over the same month last year. Early estimates of last week's freight loadings the official figures are due tomorrow indicated a total of more than 837,000 cars, a new top for the year and the best for any seven-day period since November, 1930. Building contracts awarded in the New York metropolitan area for the first eight months were placed at 49 per cent above the comparable time a year ago while the average gain for 37 Eastern states amounted to 16 per cent.

Poses of Spies Many to Obtain Military Data Duties Include Burglary and Duping of Innocent Into Revelation By David P. Sentner Iximlon, Sept. 80 How does the 1937 spy work 7 Thousands of gpecially trained men and women are now engaged in a dozen or more different key countries probing for information on rearmament programs. Many pose as tourists. Others obtain work in and near factories doing governent work.

They epot potential hirelings. They inhabit restaurants and drinking places in the working man's areas. They are friendly, personable characters. There are women with strong 4iex appeal among them. Foreign spies are in posts in munition factories, arsenals, shipyard and government departments.

Money is the most important weapon for procuring Information. An executive facing personal financial ruin, an officer in a money crape, a civil service underling neavuy in debt these spell opportunities for securing the plans of a new gun or war invention. Small shops euch as bakeries, grocery stores, tailoring places, or bookstalls are frequently the substations for spies. The use of drugs, switching of baggage, picking of locks, trains deliberately slowed up or upspeed-ed, traffic in false pasports these are included in the technique employed in spydom. Enrolled in spy ranks re sometimes expert safecrackers, super-pick pockets and porch climbers.

Skillful burglary is still a part of the espionage racket despite the fact its ace operatives are highly educated technicians. However, secret agents generally do not use queer codes. They eend harmless messages to headquarters such as "1 am sending you an umbrella tomorrow," which perhaps means that a naval flotilla is to leave secretly the next day for the Mediterranean. And the agent is sure to send that umbrella to circumnavigate suspicion. Nor is invisible ink used, because there is no ink that cannot be deciphered through chemical treatment.

And if a peacetime spy gains important information he can easily convey it orally to his superior, either directly or through a confederate. Many an ordinary business international telephone call, cable or letter cloaks a vital piece ot military information under its routine phraseology. The supplying of false information to a potential enemy country is an important part of counterespionage. That is another reason why known spies are permitted to operate so they can be fed misinformation. During the world war, no one official of the British Intelligence service was permitted to read all of any decoded document, The work was split up, page by page, or paragraph by paragraph, so that only the chief saw it In its entirety.

A warning against foreign agents who are attempting to get Germans to betray secret military informa-ion was recently broadcast by the German government. It was pointed out that two methods were being used by foreign spies to contact possible informants: ONE Advertisements are inserted in the newspapers offering to advance loans. The "useful" persons among those who replied are advanced small loans and later larger ones until they are deeply in debt. Then they are blackmailed into giving Important information. TWO-Advertisemcnts appear in newspapers for correspondents to represent a foreign press agency.

Those who are in a position to supply adequate information on aviation, raw material, supplies and confidential documents are offered huge sums of money It is alleged that foreign agents from Belgium, Czechoslovakia and Poland, have been operating along these lines.
