spite Changes

RALEIGH, Nov. 3O-(P)-North
Cardinals civilian defense volun-
teer workers should remain on the
alert despite suspension of dim
cut and air raid warning regula-
tons, Lieut.. Gen. George Grunert,
commander of the First Army and
the Eastern Defense command, said
here today.
Gen. Grunert, accompanied by
Major General William Dryden,
head of the Fourth Service COM
mand, conferred with Governor
Broughton and R. L. Mcmillan,
director of the state office of civil
ian defense, On matters affecting
this state as a part of his COM
mand.
although we nave found it ne
cessary to put the civilian defense
Air raid warning service on a
practice basis, and have suspend
ed the dim-out regulations, black
out and air raid warning practices
should be continued on fully as
large scale as at any previous
time" General Grunert said.
IF we are to remain prepared
for any emergency, civilians must
be well schooled in local defense
tactics. AS long as there is a war,
there will be danger from attack
from without. There always is a
certain calculated risk to be taken
IN fighting a war. We should not
be taken unawares if such an at
tack is made"

Of South Liberty court, Hincrest,
recount the methods he used to
reprimand his sister, Agnes Null

1t seems that Agnes had issued

In answer, Amos told the judge

in manner of which their parents
would entirely disapprove. He
said that she had made dire
threats against another sister,
Alene Murphy, in addition to
scrubbing clothes on the Sabbath.
When he made the brotherly rep

launched an offensive that he
moved to check.
Sister Alene, scheduled as wit
