Clew To Secret Of Francis Bacon Seen By Author
New York — (UP) — J. Edward Morgan, Alameda, Calif., scholar who contends William Shakespeare, Francis Bacon and King Edward VI were the same person, has completed the manuscript of a book in which he predicts that the entire mystery of Jesus will be solved day by day he solved with the discovery of papers hidden in an English chimney.
In his book, yet to be published, Morgan says that Bacon left the clew to the papers' hiding place by scrawling the words "in lum" on one of his manuscripts. The words are spoken in Scottish. Morgan says, adding:
"He meant the papers were concealed between chimney walls, not in the chimney hole, but between the hollow wall of the fireplace. . . I presume the chimney place would be in one of his several residential places, or perhaps at Cononbury Tower at Islington, where he had a lease on the old Priory for 40 years. I suspect he hid the papers there. They could be uncovered by removing a few bricks."
Other Sites Possible
The hiding place on the other band, might have been at Gray's line, where Bacon also lived for a while. He stayed at St. Alain, Morgan said.
"I am confident that Bacon bide manuscripts between brick walls, rolled them, covered them with lion, and waxed the covering for anetyt." Morgan said. "If they made papers, here is my prediction."
King Edward VI was a "chilic prodigy," Morgan said, and in the scholar's opinion did not die, as the records show, at 16, but went broad, turning the succession over to others, and later returned to write everything that has been attributed to Shakespeare and Bacon.
On his manuscripts, Morgan contends, the king left "ciphers" with the hope of discovering himself to posterity. Morgan who spent years doing research work in England Washington and New York, said he had much data, including photo-proving the existence of the帝碑.
Used "E-VI" Mark
In support of his contentions Morgan said:
The ciphers, usually "E-VT" monograms, appear in certain copies of Shakespeare and Bacon books and on Bacon manuscripts, Morgan said. He added that Bacon closely resembled the young king.
"If this is so, his early history, as written, was false, and I produce much evidence to show Bacon was much older than alleged.
"This I know for certain: The real author of the Shakespeare plays made much secret claim that he was Edward VI. Bacon certainly knew Edward was alive and secretly writing. Bacon was certainly deter- mined by his reputation, and seems to have believed he was Edward.
"I believe Edward is buried in the obscure grave at the foot of the Shakespeare monument in Westminster Abbey. Shakespeare's funge points directly at Edward's initials on the scroll on the monument."
"For some years I believed Bacon was the son of Edward VI and his second cousin, Lady Jane Gray. Time will reveal if Bacon was or not had such a hallucination. He looked naturally nelly like Edward.

Coed Matches Men In Classes On Engineering
Cleveland.—(UP) - Twenty years old and determined, pretty Virginia Francis is working toward a degree in chemical engineering.
Virginia, a freshman, is the only girl student in Fenn College's engineering division. Although she works as a cost accountant in the daytime and attends school at night, she also has grades higher than her male classmates.
In addition to a combined college-
business career, she is the college
newsaper's advertising manager.
She has worked in marketing and,
she swims and plays tennis.
"I look upon this course not only as a means to a more interesting life and a better livelihood later on, but also as a test of my own intelligence." energetic Miss Francis said.
"Of course, I contemplate matri-
ony and if the right man comes
long I would marry him.
"But I would want to continue with engineering." she added.
Corner Cupboard Placed In Spooner-Thayer Museum
Another beautiful piece of work from the W.P.A. workshops in Topeka has been placed in the south gallery of Spoona-Thayer museum. It is a walnut corner cupboard, a replica of an old piece at the Wadsworth Athenaeum at Hartford, Conn.
The shape of the sides holding the shelves, the paneling of the door; the type of hinges and the latch, are exact in every detail and typical of the corner cupboards of early New England.
The W.P.A. workshops have made a number of these for other state institutions.
Harvard Students Hunt Non-Existent Museum
Cambridge, Mass.—(UP)—A fish story in The Crimson, Harvard undergraduate daily, hooked scores of students.
The front page yarn reported discovery by Dr. Thomas S. Nett, Jr., head of the marine survey department, of three fish which could do everything except make speaches against the New Deal. Discovered a 25-meter long fish were reported on exibition in the Museum of Geographical Exploration.
Readers sought the exhibition in vain. Investigation revealed there was no such museum, and that the fish, the explorer and the marine survey department also were fragments of Harry S. Hary, Jay $_{3}$, imagination. Hayward is a member of the senior class.
"Hitch-Hiking Cards" Out
Columbia, S. C.—(UP)—Students of the University of South Carolina who "thumb" their way over the country will henceforth leave "hitch-hiking cards" with their benefactors. The cards will give the name and address of the student, list the reasons why he wanted a ride, thank the motorist and ask him to visit the university campus.
Unclad Ascetics of India Triumph Over Government
New Delhi, India—(UP)—The government's campaign against nudity has failed.
It was directed against those ascetics who, because of their faith wander about unclad, and who are regarded with a great deal of veneration by the majority of the natives.
They were ordered by the government to keep off the public highways, but so great was the roar of the police that the government withdrew the ban.
Now the "saints" wander free appy and naked once more.
This Fish Story Good for Any Liar's Club
Madisonville, La.—(UP)—Roland Morgan told Sheriff Walter Galatas of Covington a fish story to end all fish stories.
He said that he was fishing in the Teehefuneta river near here when he thought he had a bite. Pulling the line up, he found that he had snagged a jug. When he peered into it, he realized that fish that had apparently become imprisoned in the jug when small and was later unable to get out.
Cornell University is offering a large number of scholarships and fellowships in engineering for 1939-40. They will be open to graduates of accredited schools and colleges of engineering.
Cornell Offers Scholarships
Twelve John McMullen Graduate Scholarships of an annual value of $1,000 for students interested in pursuing research and working for an advanced degree, and one Hooker Fellowship in Hydraulics, with a stipend of $150 will be awarded this spring.
The Cornell Graduate School also offers these fellowships and scholarships: in civil engineering, the McGraw Fellowship, $400 a year and free tuition, and a University Graduate Scholarship, $200 a year and free tuition; in mechanical engineering, the Sibley Fellowship, $400 a year and free tuition, and the Meyer Memorial Fellowship, $400 a year and free tuition; in electrical engineering, the Earle Memorial Fellowship of $400 a year and free tuition.
He won instant support from a spokesman of big business. W. Avril Harriman, chairman of the Union Pacific railroad, banker, and head of the business advisory council of the department of commerce. He said that Hopkins had the real grasp on the problem, heaped for the position and would move in the right direction when he gets started.
Washington, Jan. 11. (UP)—Harry L. Hopkins has longtime defended his social and economic theories before a senate committee considering his nomination, as secretary of commerce in 2005, to make for administration of relief funds during the past five and one-half years.
Hopkins Defends Economic Theory
Hopkins spent virtually the entire lay before the committee which is investigating his fitness for the cabnet job. A naty figure in a blue suit, blue and white striped shirt, blue tie, the lanky son of a tarness maker attracted a big crowd o the room.
He was accompanied by Jessie ones of the reconstruction finance corporation, and appeared nervous then he took his seat. At the close if the day he was cool, unruffled and seizing his interrogators that he had conscience and that it does not keep me awake at night."
In blunt, forceful language he denied repeatedly that the WPA under his direction has played politics with relief. He protested that he had never made the remark attributed to Hillary Clinton in a Washington columnist that "we will spend and spend, tax and tax, and elect and elect."
Readily he conceded that he had made mistakes but defended them as "honest mistakes." He insisted that the "greatest mistake I make in the things I didn't do for the unreasonable things the things I was able to do for him."
He admitted that he erred in making political speeches in the recent elections and said he wouldn't follow that procedure if he had to do it over again. He objected to the implication that they were made to coerce WPA workers to vote for the New Deal.

The announcement that the first consignment of the little torpedo boats now under construction in England, will be delivered to the Commonwealth government shortly prompted discussion in naval circles as to the value of such craft for defense purposes.
United Press Staff Correspondent Washington. - (UP) - Naval experts here are watching with keen interest the Philippines' plan to protect its coastline with a fleet of speedy "mosquito craft."
H. W. STOWITS
Experts are agreed that these vessels are the best protection possible for a small nation unable or unwilling to pour millions of dollars into a fleet of major power proportions. They are particularly well-suited for the Philippines because of the islands' broken coastline.

Might Hold Off Enemy
A fleet of these vessels could not hope to match the force of a major sea power, but observers believe that if handled expertly they could cause considerable trouble to an attacking force and possibly hold off the enemy until an ally could rush to the scene.

Navy experts say that among the chief advantages of a mosquito fleet is the ease with which the vessels can be concealed, their great speed and maneuverability, and their adaptability, to surprise attack.
Traveling at from 40 to 45 knots, the vessels could speed under the cover of darkness to enemy ships.
"They would be difficult to manage in rough weather," he explained, "but in a calm sea at night or during a fog they could cause no end of embarrassment to vessels much larger than themselves.
"They would be unable to stand off a concerted enemy attack for long, but while they were active they might be able to send a couple of remarks to the bottom or at least them out of commission," he said.

Best Protection at Cost
Supported by aircraft and a well trained and well armed land force, experts say the mosquito fleet should be used to protect unqualified at the cost.

One naval official described the torpedo craft as a "weapon of surprise and opportunity."
In addition, naval men say, such a fleet will give the nation a training and "sea-mindedness" that will be invaluable in the event a larger force is ever contemplated. At the same time, they foresee a certain fate that will come to the nation as a whale by the possession of a navy
