FIRST OF U.S. NAVY’S “POCKET BATTLESHIPS” LAUNCHED ON COAST: MARE ISLAND, CA - The new U.S.S. “San Francisco” goes down the ways as the finest cruiser afloat. She will be armed with nine 8-inch guns, and will be heavily armored, but will have a speed of 33 knots and will carry four fighting planes. A new departure in American naval construction. 3. WORKMEN RISK LIVES DYNAMITING 140-FOOT GRAIN PLANT CHIMNEY: CHICAGO, IL - A breath-taking sight as the huge smoke stack of a wrecked grain elevator is blown off its base with explosives and hurled to the ground in a mass of flying debris. 4. LEBRUN OPENS FAMOUS FAIR MARKING RETURN OF FRENCH PROSPERITY: LYONS, FRANCE - The President of the Republic officially attends the opening ceremonies at the noted exposition of Gallic manufacturers which this year heralds France’s come-back as a leading export nation. 5. CONGRESS COMMITTEE HEARS ARGUMENTS ON U.S. LABOR CAMP PLAN: WASHINGTON, D.C. - Impressive scenes mark the hearing before the joint Senate and House Committee on the President’s proposal to recruit 250,000 workers for re-forestation projects. William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, opposes certain phases of the idea, but the new Secretary of Labor, Frances Perkins, hails it as a sorely needed relief step. 6. WIDESPREAD FLOODS MENACE YORKSHIRE LIVES AND PROPERTY: STAMFORD BRIDGE, ENGLAND - The Derwent River goes on a rampage, flooding thousands of acres and many towns, marooning hundreds of families and causing untold damage in property and livestock. One of the worst inundations ever suffered in the British Isles. 7. HUNGRY ALLIGATORS BATTLE FOR FOOD AFTER WINTER NAP: LOS ANGELES, CA - Thrilling scenes of hundreds of huge ’gators in their annual spring struggle for raw meat, after awaking from a lethargic Winter of sleep and fasting. 8. COMMUNISTS STAGE ANTI-JAPANESE RIOT AS ENVOY ARRIVES: NEW YORK, NY - Yosuke Matsuoka, the Mikado’s delegate to the League of Nations, who dramatically walked out of that assemblage last month, is greeted by an unruly and pro-Chinese Red demonstration upon debarking from the “Leviathan” en route to discuss the Manchurian situation with President Roosevelt. 9. SOCIETY PAYS HOMAGE TO CANINE ROYALTY AT ANNUAL DOG SHOW: CHICAGO, IL - The aristocrats of dogdom are paraded in this city’s championship exhibit. Some of the finest animals in the country are among the entrants, with Pobida, a Russian Wolf Hound belonging to Elaine Kay of Oak Park, adjudged the “champ” of the year. 10. GIANT OCEAN LINER CAPSIZES AT DOCK WITH TWO MISSING: SEATTLE, WA - One of the most amazing mishaps in American marine history. Two hundred members of the crew scrambled to safety as the “President Madison” suddenly listed and went down into the mud at a crazy angle. An appalling sight.
