Colo, editor and publisher of the
Summit County Journal, reported to
Guard officers his camera was seized,
stripped of roll of film and tram
pied by three men he did not know,
just inside the project area late
Sunday.
Work on the project resumed Fri
day after being halted since July II
by a strike of members of five Amer
lean Federation of Labor unions
seeking collective bargaining recog-
milton.
National Guardsmen have been on
duty in the project area since Thurs
day, called out after seven men were
injured in two shooting outbreaks
during back work" movement.
Guard officers issued an order
prohibiting sale of liquor in the
trouble zone after pm, and said
the order would remain in effect
until everything is all right again"
Adjt. Gen Harold H Richardson
said work at the dam was proceed
ing quietly except for the dynamit-
ing and camera-smashing incidents,
but that he would not decrease the
force of 2l6 Guardsmen, now on
24-hour patrol duty, for few days"

Firm Ordered to Stop Using
VirQiniu Label on Products

The good name of "Old Virginia"
ham and beef is not to be trif1ed
with, the Federal Trade Commission
ruled today.
The commission ordered the
United Corp, New York. trading as
the Virginia Products Co., to stop
misusing the name of Virginia in its
sales of deviled ham and corned
beef hash.
Much of the meat in the COM
panys products was not obtained
from cattle or hogs grown in Vir-
ginia nor cured nor processed by
"the well-known Virginia method"
the commission found.
1t also found that the corporation
used the trade name of Virginia
Products Co. for the purpose of
securing the benefits from the repu-
tation of Virginia ham and other
meat products"

The company's products are
shipped from plants in Chicago and
Cambridge. Md, the commission
said, and the only business it does
In Virginia Is to send invoices from
Richmond.
The commission also charged that
the company had supplied customers
with stickers to be attached to menu
cards in drugstores and cafes which
were labeled "old Virginia" deviled
ham sandwiches and corned beef
hash, customers being misled and
deceived by these representations"
The corporation was ordered to
stop using the name of Virginia
Products Co. or in any way repre-
senting that Its products are Vir-
ginia products unless the meat ac-
tually comes from cattle and hogs
grown in Virginia and is cured by
the Virginia process.

plan other than unemployment
within the District is indicated
clearly for many of the unemployed

experience who are stranded in the

conditions giving some assurance of
