said that he probably would settle

New York. Dec. 6.-{P-People of
the northeastern states and eastern
Canada today paid fortunes to break
the hold of the snow and windstorm
which swept in from the North At
lantic, causing II deaths in New
England, New York state and New
Jersey, and wrecking seven schooners
off the coast of Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick.
Crews of the vessels which were
beaten to pieces by the storm, appar-
ntly Jared better than inland victims
of the snow and wind, as no seafar-
ers were reported as having lost their
lives. In addition to the wreckage
of the seven vessels off Nova Scotia
and New Brunswick, fishing fleets
suffered heavily and the storm Grip
pied shipping at several ports. Four
teen steamers were ice bound in the
st. Lawrence River in Quebec.
New England suffered seven deaths
from the storm, New York state three
and New Jersey one. New York, Bos-
ton and other cities spent enormous
sums in clearing their streets of
snow ranging from seven inches to a
foot in depth. Sunshine and rising
temperatures, following the fury Of
the storm, enabled the snow fettered
area to make rapid progress toward
freeing itself from the wintry grip.
Trains gradually were returning to
their normal schedules tonight and
motor traffic was steadily improving.

Boston, Dec. 6-(P)-New England
counted IL or more deaths tonight

waves, gales and snowstorms in
quick succession during the past few

reau of north and northwest gales
from Sandy Hook to PASSPORT, Me.
A snowstorm that followed yes
terday's record plunge in tempera-
ture, covered New England with
snow that ranged in depth from
three to nine inches in northern Sec
tons to II inches in Boston. Trans
portation delays were commo and
schools were closed in many places
as the cities and towns dug them
selves out.
Boston's snowfall was the heaviest

Deaths in this region included one

Govt. Cutters to
PenObscOt River
To Break Ice Jam

Bangor, Dec. 6.-(P)--Two coast
guard cutters are expected to arrive
at Bucksport Tuesday noon to assist
in breaking the ice jam in the Penob-
scot river 10 miles below Bangor.
The snowstorm of Sunday night and
this morning complicated matters
greatly, causing RAPID TO- nation OF
slush ice and although anchor ice has
stopped running from up river, the
sush and skim ice from coves has
caused jam two miles long just
above Oak Point, and this must be
cleared out before any more ship
ping tan reach Bangor.
There are no vessels in port now,
but a steamer and four barges are
due, and if the weather moderates the
two coastguard boats, the Bangor tug
Walter Ross, and the Philadelphia
and Reading tug Carlisle will attempt
to keep the river open until these
vessels can get to Bangor and dis
charge.
The steamer Camden, held at
Rockland by the gale of Sunday,
proceeded tonight and upon arrival in
Boston will be hauled off, to be re-
placed on the Boston and Penohscot

Bangor was officially closed late to-
day after the tug Walter Ross had
broken through eight miles of ice
and liberated the barge George c.

ing coal here.
Although five other barges are en-
route here, it was regarded as I'M
likely that another attempt would be
made to open the channel before
spring. Ferry service between Ban

Chicago. Dec. 6.-(P)-"Today's
farmers market is the world"
This assertion was made in the re-
port of Frank Evans, general mar
keting counsel of the American Farm
Bureau Federation, at the opening of
it's annual convention here today. He
contrasted the situation with that of
two generations ago, when the far
mer's market was his immediate
neighborhood and distribution areas
conceded with production areas.
People of Florida, and California
were envied their tropical fruits, and
the country folks their fresh
cuts of beef.
But today" said Mr.. Evans, "the
corner grocery store offers every
thing that is produced anywhere in
the United States or elsewhere"
The world standpoint of the mod
ern farmer, thus summarized, was
echoed by the announcement from

cause Of the explosion Is not known.
The explosion wrecked the building
and damaged adjoining buildings in
which falling glass caused the injury
to the others. The destroyed build
ings were of steel and corrugated
iron construction. The force of the
explosion shattered glass and partly
damaged other buildings, several
hundred feet away.

The explosion caused much ex-
element in town breaking many
windows in stores and dwellings.
The structure that went up is To-
Gated in the center of large wire

der is manufactured and for time it
was feared that the detonation might
set off powder stored in other build
ings.
The plant covers 100 acres and
most of the buildings are located
along the river. 1t was esta blished
during the war, when in it were
made great quantities Of smokeless
powder for the government. Eleven
persons previously lost their lives at
