Former Mar. Athlete Passes

Employed at one time in the pas_ senger department of the Inter- colonial Railway at Moncton. NB, l-Iumpihrey was later transferred to Montreal and retired on pension a few years ago.

Three sons survive.

Chandler Silent After Coniab With MacPhail

CINCINNATI. 89M. 11 — (A?) - Baseball Commissioner AB. Chandler practised again today what he has been trying to preach to [any MacPhall-silence-after a conference with the president of New York Yankees in connection with statements MacPhail made about that forbidden subject, Leo Durocher. '

As was the case when MacPhail was called on his green carpet last April for criticizing the suspension for the season of the Brooklyn manager, the biig sihot of baseball declined to discuss today's confab ‘with the fiery Yankee president, which folio-wed a meeting to plan for the 104'! World Series.

Interrupted in his talk about the Series by a question as to what the score was with the New Ycrk Yan- kee president, Chandler cried:

"That's all: thats all." -

MacPhall also was silent as to

what took place.

Chandler began an investigation several days ago into statements attributed to MacPhall last week concerning the Durccher case.

The New Yorker was quoted as saying it was a 100-to-1 shot that Durocher would not be back with the Dodgers next season, and add- ing:

"D0 you think that Durocher woud have been suspended i! Rickey (Branch Rickey, president of the Brooklyn club) hadn't want- ed him suspended?"

When Chandler suspended Dur- ocher on April 9 he issued an or- der that no one in the controversy involving Durocher. MacPihail and Rickey could discuss the subject.

Whether MacPhail is to be pun- ished lor statements he denied making for publication or whether the matter will be smoothed over remained a moot question tonight.

Declaring “the tides of 1m are 104$ Tum“!!! Dill." he appealed to directors of the International Bank and Monetary Fund to provide some of the financial assistance he said was necessary m’ prevgmf, "economic collapse and social a“. solution."

"Each nation can, and must, go a great way along the road l... re- covery through its own efforts," he sald.ln formally opening the bank and funds second annual meeting. “But, unaided, most can't go all the way."

Dalton did not indicate whether he would press for revision of the world bank chairter to permit loans for purchase of consumer goods and foods. Rumors persisted that Britain would seek such a change to tide her over her dollar famine, but John J. McCloy, American president of the balnk, declared yes- terday the question had not been raised by the chancellor.

At that time McCloy, explaining that bank loans were restricted to "productive enterprises." said ilw could not be used as stopgap meas- ures pending fonnatlo-n of a Mar- shall plan,

"While we aire meeting in Lon- don," Dalton said, "the represent- ives of many nations are meeting in Paris to prepare a plan in re- sponse to tihe bold and generous in- itrative of Mr. Marshall. This urg- ent effort to avert an econcrnic catastrophe which. if it were allow- ed to begin, would soon engulf us ail, calls for many contributory ap- proaches. One such approach is through the discussions in Paris. Another is through our discussions here in London."
