The Upper House also pushed through legislation to unfreeze the $250,000,000 school bond issue without a dissenting vote. If accepted by the Assembly, as expected, it will make $100,000,000 available October 5 for school construction, then $5,000,000 a month until spent in full.
The legislature speeded action today to wrap up a big preparedness program, hand it to Governor Warren and then go home.
A full-time state civil defense agency with $475,000 to get started; renewal—with tougher terms of the World War II anti-sabotage act; standby authorization to call up the defense and security corps (State Guard); and use of the $75,000,000 rainy day fund for disaster relief.
Eclipse
(Continued from Page 1)
Greek and Roman writers all refer to eclipses. Usually a sense of dread overhangs the telling of the event.
As late as May 5, 850, Louis Le Debonnaire, who was Charlemagne's son, literally was scared to death by a total eclipse.
Eclipses tend to run in sequences of a little more than 18 years. During this period there usually are 70 eclipses, 41 of the sun, 29 of the moon.
But the moon offers the better bargain. That's because a lunar eclipse covers an entire hemisphere, whereas the solar eclipse shadows an area no more than 150 to 170 miles wide.
The next big eclipse of the sun will be on February 25, 1952, but you'll have to be in Nubia, Persia or Siberia to see it.
It's possible to have as many as three lunar eclipses, such as the one last night, in a year. Also, it's possible to have none at all.
Next total eclipse of the moon visible from this country: January 29, 1953.
Eagles Hold Planning Meet
Fraternal Order of Eagles met at 8 p.m. last night for a regular business meeting. This was the first meeting since the fall rejuvenation of the Eagles hall.
Meeting was conducted on a planning basis for the year which includes mostly local speakers, entertainers and other local activities.
Douglas Quits London Post; NY Police Graft
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Lewis W. Douglas resigned today as Ambassador to England.
The White House announced the resignation a few minutes after Douglas called on President Truman.
An exchange of letters between Douglas and the president was made public.
Douglas resigned on the ground of "personal considerations," including those of health.
He resigned as of "on or about November 1."
Mr. Truman said he accepted the resignation with "most genuine regret."
NEW YORK—Thomas F. Murphy, a giant of a man who prosecuted Alger Hiss for the federal government, takes over today as the new commissioner of New York's graft-shaken police department.
His first job—in the face of a growing clamor—may be to turn the 18,000-man department upside down and shake loose its "rotten apples." He apparently has a free hand to do so.

Commissioner William P. O'Brien quit last night in the middle of a police-bookie scandal unearthied by a rackets-probing Brooklyn grand jury.
"I find my position as police commisisoner untenable," said the 59-year-old O'Brien, son of a policeman and a veteran of nearly 35 years on the force. He was not accused of any dishonesty, himself.
Acting Mayor Vincent R. Impellitteri also said O'Brien's position was untenable, and that they both agreed a resignation was in order.
CHICAGO—Two crime investigators were slain last night in separate shootings shortly before they
were to have reported on activities of Chicago gangsters.
