His wound was only slight and he went on with a scheduled speech before going to hospital for treatment 90 minutes later. President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt was the target of anar- chist Guiseppe Zangara at Fla., Feb. 15, 1033. The bullet struck Mayor Anton J. Cermuk of Chicago instead because a woman seized Zangara's arm as he fired.

Poiaio Shipments By Rail increase in Past Six Days Potato shipments by-rail have increased during the past six dry: it was learned from the shipment figures obtained here from the Superintendent's Office, Canadian National Railways. 119 carloads of potatoes were ferried from Borden to Tormentine during the five day period from October 27 to Oct. 31. During the previous nine days from Oct. 18 to 27 152 carloads were exported. Highest single day of shipping was on Oct. 25 when 43 carloads were exported. Rail shipments per day during the past five days wcre:'Oct. 27, twenty-three cars; Oct. 28. thirty-four cars; Oct. 29, nineteen cars; Oct. 30, twenty cars; Oct. 31. thirty-one cars. Rail shipments during the first eighteen days of the month were very low, usually varying from nothing to ten carlcads. Reports from Summerside and Montague indicate that few spuds are moving from those localities. In Charlottetown and Montague several dealers reported that they were either buying for storage or having potatoes stored in their warehouses without quoting prices. One Siimmerside firm has as- sembled a cargo of taiblestock pay- ing 50 cents a hundred pound de- livered at the wharf or 30 oents a bushel. Most dealers are awaiting further word or action on a price policy before they do any more business. ' Two Montague firms report that they are paying 45 cents per 75 pound bag of table stock or 36 cents a bushel. On firm reports that it has 2,000 bushels in storage and the other has an unspecified amount. Tablestock price in Charlotte- town was reporied unchanged from that of the two days ago, the price being about 24 cents a bushel or 30 cents per 75 pound bag. No price was quoted for seed and none is being bought in either Summerside or Montague.

But in one of the letters Campos, the revolu- tionary leader, told Torreaoia: "If for any reason it shculd be necessary for you to assume :h(- leadership of the movement in the United States, you will do so with. out -hesitation of any kind."

Baugham, chief of the U. S. secret Service. said that Ccllazzu strolled. by the sentry box at one side of the Blair House without at- tracting notice. He went along Pennsylvania Ave- izue sidewalk until he was within 10 feet of the entrance. Birdzell was there, but facing the other way. He heard a. click, and turned. Collazzo said nothing. but opened fire. Birdzell rushed into the street. even. though hit, He said later he was trying to draw the fire awnv from the Blair House. By this time officer Floyd Bor- ing. standing outsidc the sentry box, and officer Joseph 0. David- son, who was inside, opened fire and felled Collazzo at the foot of Blair House steps.

He died against a clump of shrub- bery, about 30 feet from his com- portion. Both men were well dressed. Elnfl wore what appeared to be ident- ical pinstrlpe suits. Oddly, each fell and lay with his hat on. About 20 shots were fired. At least four of these ripped into the Blair House. one window, al- most at street level, was spattereo. one shot lodged in a door. Why had these men risked their lives in (in effort to kill the President? Just Political Collazzo qa.sn't co-operative in supplying the answer. Asked what was his purpose in the attack, he said: I "Oh, just political." Secret Service men studied the two letters for light on the ques- tion. One read: "My Dear Griselio: "If for any reason it should be necessary for you to assume the leadership of the movement in the United States, you will do so without hesitation of any kind. We are leaving to your high sense of patriotism and sane judgment everything regarding this matter. ”Cordially yours, Pedro Albizu Campos." The second was in the form of a memorandum, written in Span- ish. Translated it read: "Gorsoline will collect the funds which I consider necessary to take care of the supreme necessities of the cause. He will be responsible directly to the general treasurer. The delegate will accord you all the necessary co-operation so that your mission may be a triumph. "San Juan. Puerto Rico, Sept. 2i. 1950." Truman Calm Truman was described by his secretary.

GEORGE BERNARD SHAW (Continued from page 1) ists to alter the thinking of man- kind. As the last of eminent Vic- torians he was one of the intellect- ual leaders who broke down many of the taboos and useless traditions of the 19th century. Many Eccentrlcltlea George Bernard Shaw never hesitated to tell the world what was wrong with it, or to suggest a remedy. His chief complaint was that the world could not keep up with him. A lifelong vegetarian, anti-vac- cinationist and a hater of tobacco, anyone who saw him striding along the Strand, even after he was 80, agreed he was a good advertise- ment for his principles, At rehear- sals of his plays he used to walk about the stage with a basket of fruit on his arm, frequently dipping into it for nourishment. ' The amount he had to pay in taxes irked him. At 88 he com- plained 380,000 a year went in in- come taxes and the more he earn- ed the poorer he got. Income tax specialists then estimated Shaw's income at about S98.000 a year. He said he had been transformed from a prosperous playwright into a "tax collector" working for a small commission. His friends estimated, however. that he would leave ap- proximately sl,000.000. In 1944 he said he was willing to bequeath his entire fortune to establishing a new 42-letter Eng- lish alphabet which would rep- resent all speech sounds in the language. He said he had used this alphabet himself for years to save time in his own writing. He was still at it on his 90th birthday when he wrote: ”DeaLh is not to be regarded. as natural afid inevitable. We die because we do not know how to live and kill ourselves by lethal habits. Mortal- ity should be confined to murder. suicide and fatal accidents." scribbled Way to Fame How long ivill he be remember- ed, this volubie, cantankerous ec- centric man who turned his back on Ireland in 1876, argued and scribbled his way to fame, and then outlasted all his luminous contemporaries? Shaw called him- self "a journalist and nothing else” while his astute biographer. Frank Harris, predicted he would be re- membered iike Dr. Johnson and Samuel Pepys, not because of his writings but because of his person- ality. Still, revivals of his plays in 194? -.on stage, screen and radio - were welcomed sincerely by British critics and pu'..ic. Shaw descended from one of the many Protestant families which es- tablishbcl themselves in Ireland in the lath century. lie was born in Dublin, July 26, 1856. Although the Shaws had aristocratic connections his father, George Carr Shaw, was described as a "happy-go-lucky character, rather fond of the bot- tle," who went into the wholesale flour business and at the age of 40 married Lucinda Elizabeth Gurley. Mrs. Shaw earned most of the household money by music teach- ing in Dublin and at a later date Shaw said it was a period of "not that tolerable sort of poverty which furnishes an element of romance in the early lives of many famous men but the poverty of a younger son of a younger son." His mother gave him -I lasting interest in music, and his know- ledge of the subject gave him a step up the ladder of literary fame when he was a struggling London journalist. Interest In Socialism He early took an active interest in Socialism and was one of the leading lights of the Fabian Society with such pioneers of the Labor movement as Sidney Webb. His mind ranged far beyond his fellows and some of his arguments shock- ed even devoted Fabians. fit was through his association with the Fabian Society that he met his wife. Charlotte Frances Payne Townahend, his "green-eyed Irish heiress." They were married in 1898 and she predeceased him in 1943. Shaw said the match took place chiefly because of her desire to give him worldly comfort. There were no children. A romantic sidelight on Show: life was his correspondence with WHY IIIGH PRICES ?

They ex- changed letters for pmany years, but scrupulouslyuavoided one an- other. although living only a mile; apart, lest the flavor of their cur- Ttljsllondence be spoiled. Bit by bit his "delicious flirtation" changed into a friendship with much bus- iness for discussion. Show became known as g writer of plays for reading long before he was definitely accepted on the London stage. about 1904. Many of his most-discussed works were written in response to special re- quests. . Prolific Writer In his long life he wrote more than 50 plays, some of which were adapted to the screen. The first of these was the captivating ”Pygmalion." Next came his "Maj- or Barbara" arrd, just after the Second World War. a spectacular production of "Caesar and Cleo- patra." i Some of the other well-known plays which he turned out in a half-century of writing were ”Mnn and Superman." "John Bull's Oth- er Island." "The Doctor's Dilem- ma," "The showing-up of Blancol Posnet." "Heartbreak House. "Back to Methuselah," "Saint Joan of Arc," "The Apple Cart." "The Miilionairess." "Geneva," and "in Good King Charles' Golden Days." The first was produced in 1903: the last in 1939. He also published five novels. the best known of which were "Love Among the Artists" and "An Unsocial S0cialLst.'.' But his great- est claim to fame next to writing was as an essayist-or more ac- curately, as a writer of long lectures. for he was nothing if not, dogmatic. Articles on Fnbianism were fol- lowed by literary and musical criticisms. and the whole over- whelmed in his discussion of world affairs.
