In TyphoidPlot
Of Hooded Cult
Accuses High Official Of
Seeking Hand-Grenades,
Poison Gas, Needles
DETROIT, Aug. 1.-(P)-Prosecut-
or Duncan C. McCrea said tonight a
chemist questioned about a reported
Black Legion typhoid epidemic plot
has declared a high-ranking Legion
officer inquired also how to make
hand-grenades and kill people with
poison gas and hypodermic needles.
The chemist, a bacteriologist and
registered pharmacist whose name
was withheld, was questioned in the
prosecutor's office after a startling
story told by William Guthrie, a
Black Legion printer.
Held On Riot. Charge
Guthrie, who is held on a con-
spiracy to riot charge, asserted that
the same high Legion officer wanted
to breed typhoid germs in his house
and talked of infecting Jews by in-
jecting the germs through milk bot-
tle caps and also into cottage cheese.
Nothing came of either plot.
McCrea said the pharmacist ad-
mitted joining the Black Legion two
years ago and said he was afraid to
report any of the secret order's ac-
tivities to police because the terrorists
boasted also.of having a "Legionnaire
at most every post a man could go
to."
Death Methods Discussed
The high Legion officer talked, the
pharmacist said, of making bombs to
throw into meetings and automobiles,
poison gas to be introduced through
keyholes of rooms and needles to
"stick someone with in the street or
in a theatre and that would produce
death."
The pharmacist said he told the
Legion officer he did not know how
to make bombs and refused to have
any part in such plans.
Guthrie made another statement in
which he told also of inquiries about
bombs and "hypo" needles.
The high Legion officer first want-
ed bombs "knurled, similar to the
knurling on a hand grenade, ap-
parently so they would break in small
pieces," Guthrie said.
Guthrie named four places, includ-
ing a school, which the Legion of-
ficials suggested for bombing.

Fire; Dryness Threatens
Large Area In State
TRAUNIK, Mich., Aug. 1.-RP)--
The Alger County forest fire which
has been burning since Thursday
morning was less than a half mile
from the village of Traunik early to-
night.
Two pieces of motor fire apparatus
from Rapid River were brought here
by railroad late this afternoon. One
is a pumping engine. A railroad
tank car used for/ fighting forest
fires also was standing by.
The wind still was blowing away
from the village, and observers said
there appeared to be no immediate
danger to the community of ap-
proximately 150 residents.
The fire late today had burned
over approximately 3,200 acres. Most
of the area is cutover timber land
but some valuable second growth
timber was reported lost.
Hundreds of State Conservation de-
partment officers, CCC members,
Federal forest service men and volun-
teers were fighting the fire with port-
able pumps, sand and trench meth-
ods.
The newest fire reported was in
the Siskiwit Bay area on Isle Royale;
the blaze there burned with such in-
tensity that it could be seen from
the mainland by night, a distance of
about 40 miles.
After receiving reports that the 400
men fighting the fire were unable to
cope with the situation, Maj. 'Seiver
R. Tupper, in command of Fort
Brady and all upper peninsula CCC
camps, ordered 250 more men into
action.
The CCC reinforcements were or-
dered mobilized at Houghton and
transported as quickly as possible to
the Island. A coast guard boat was
reported standing by ready to evac-
uate Isle Royale residentsI
