With the garment industry of such multi-million importance to the econ¬ omy of Luzerne County—its vital noture augmented by the trouble* of coal—a quick solution of the prob¬ lems which prolong the strike would be a blessing to us all. In view of the tremendous urgency and with no local official seemingly able to bring the two aides together, it would appear that Gov. George M. Leader is the last resort and his friendship with the ILGWU should make him welcome to the union. If not the Governor, someone will have to lend a hand if only to pro¬ duce meetings. The way the situcrton now Is deteriorating is due mostly to the fact that the fight is at long range and no peace ever was gained that way. It lends weight to the fecrr held by many that some people may not want to reach an agreement. In the meantime, with lawlessness, rough - housing and destruction of property charged to both sides, the thing gets definitely out of bounds. The charges as to which side was the first to get out of line are of no interest to non-combatants. However, unless we are to wreck beyond restoration the reputation of the community and make it impossi¬ ble again to find industries willing to come here to provide the needed jobs, this sort of thing had best stop. They lend credence to other charges, to the effect that a deliber¬ ate effort is being made to force the garment industry out of the area. In the meantime, and all the time, greatest need is for someone of sub¬ stance to bring the disputants to¬ gether otherwise there can be no solution to the problems and the strike just cannot be ended. That would be another -way to bring real ruin to the area.

At Crime for 20 Years Nation's Leading 'Firebug' Admits Setting 48 Fires Across the Nation KEY WEST, Fla. (IP)-r-Calls from across the country yester^ day confirmed more and more of an ex-sailor's confession that he set 48 fires which caused nearly $4,000,000 damages. Monroe County Sheriff John M. Spottswood said 28-year-old Billy Watkins Moody may prove to be one of history's most ac¬ tive "firebugs." The confession obuined by the sheriff and his deputies after an intense inves¬ tigation Indicated that Moody has been setting fires for the last 20 years. 'The inquiries we have had so far confirm what Moodv told us," Spottswood's deputy, Lt. Rene Raiole, said, "We expect more calls as soon as the dates and details can be checked where Moody said he set fires," Moody, thin, dark-haired and described by the sheriff's office as "a neurotic,' has been con¬ fessing off and on since before Christmas to setting fires. He has been in jail here since No¬ vember serving a six-months sentence for larceny. Kept on Confessing Sheriff Spottswood said offi¬ cers knew that a firebug had set four fires in Key West and every suspect picked up was questioned to uncover a clue. 'We soon broke the case," Spottswood said, "after we started questioning Moody." Once started he "kept on con¬ fessing," the officer said. Moody could not remember dates in most instances from newspaper accounts of many of the fires he said he set. Authorities in Norfolk, Va., issued a warrant for Moody, charging him witii ¦ $7,000 blaze in a florist shop in Nor¬ folk last August. Oakland, Calif. officials wanted to question him further about a fire in a USO building there. Blamed Parents Moody, who blamed his par¬ ents' separation and an "un¬ happy childhood" for "tripping" his mind, has listed major fires in Miami, Portsmouth. Va.; Bowling Green, Ky.; Birming¬ ham, Ala,, and in South Korea, where he said he served during the Korean War. Sheriff Spottswood said Moo¬ dy's story had been called the "largest single arson case in history" by fire insurance un¬ derwriters. Moody said he started set¬ ting fires at his home in Phila¬ delphia, Miss., when ha eight years old.

With the garment industry of such multi-million importance to the econ¬ omy of Luzerne County—its vital noture augmented by the trouble* of coal—a quick solution of the prob¬ lems which prolong the strike would be a blessing to us all. In view of the tremendous urgency and with no local official seemingly able to bring the two aides together, it would appear that Gov. George M. Leader is the last resort and his friendship with the ILGWU should make him welcome to the union. If not the Governor, someone will have to lend a hand if only to pro¬ duce meetings. The way the situcrton now Is deteriorating is due mostly to the fact that the fight is at long range and no peace ever was gained that way. It lends weight to the fecrr held by many that some people may not want to reach an agreement. In the meantime, with lawlessness, rough - housing and destruction of property charged to both sides, the thing gets definitely out of bounds. The charges as to which side was the first to get out of line are of no interest to non-combatants. However, unless we are to wreck beyond restoration the reputation of the community and make it impossi¬ ble again to find industries willing to come here to provide the needed jobs, this sort of thing had best stop. They lend credence to other charges, to the effect that a deliber¬ ate effort is being made to force the garment industry out of the area. In the meantime, and all the time, greatest need is for someone of sub¬ stance to bring the disputants to¬ gether otherwise there can be no solution to the problems and the strike just cannot be ended. That would be another -way to bring real ruin to the area.

At Crime for 20 Years Nation's Leading 'Firebug' Admits Setting 48 Fires Across the Nation KEY WEST, Fla. (IP)-r-Calls from across the country yester^ day confirmed more and more of an ex-sailor's confession that he set 48 fires which caused nearly $4,000,000 damages. Monroe County Sheriff John M. Spottswood said 28-year-old Billy Watkins Moody may prove to be one of history's most ac¬ tive "firebugs." The confession obuined by the sheriff and his deputies after an intense inves¬ tigation Indicated that Moody has been setting fires for the last 20 years. 'The inquiries we have had so far confirm what Moodv told us," Spottswood's deputy, Lt. Rene Raiole, said, "We expect more calls as soon as the dates and details can be checked where Moody said he set fires," Moody, thin, dark-haired and described by the sheriff's office as "a neurotic,' has been con¬ fessing off and on since before Christmas to setting fires. He has been in jail here since No¬ vember serving a six-months sentence for larceny. Kept on Confessing Sheriff Spottswood said offi¬ cers knew that a firebug had set four fires in Key West and every suspect picked up was questioned to uncover a clue. 'We soon broke the case," Spottswood said, "after we started questioning Moody." Once started he "kept on con¬ fessing," the officer said. Moody could not remember dates in most instances from newspaper accounts of many of the fires he said he set. Authorities in Norfolk, Va., issued a warrant for Moody, charging him witii ¦ $7,000 blaze in a florist shop in Nor¬ folk last August. Oakland, Calif. officials wanted to question him further about a fire in a USO building there. Blamed Parents Moody, who blamed his par¬ ents' separation and an "un¬ happy childhood" for "tripping" his mind, has listed major fires in Miami, Portsmouth. Va.; Bowling Green, Ky.; Birming¬ ham, Ala,, and in South Korea, where he said he served during the Korean War. Sheriff Spottswood said Moo¬ dy's story had been called the "largest single arson case in history" by fire insurance un¬ derwriters. Moody said he started set¬ ting fires at his home in Phila¬ delphia, Miss., when ha eight years old.
