ALLIES PENETRATE HEART OF BULGE
LIT CIGARETTE
 KILLED 16S IN
 JULYD|SASTER

Hartford, Conn, January 12. = (UP) - A finding of Coroner Frank E.. Healey to- day held seven officials and employees of the Ringing Brothers & Barnum and Bailey Circus criminally re- sponSible for the disastrous fire which last July 6 killed 168 spectators and injured another 682 during an after noon performance of the big top.
 Disclosing for the first time the cause of the fire, which raced through the main tent and leveled it within IS min utes, Healey said that "the evidence seems to show that the fire was caused by some one throwing a burning cigarette into the folds of the side wall canvas or on the grouTd."
 Five corporation officials, arrest- ed on manslaughter charges after the fire, and who were held liable by the coronor were:
 Vice President James A. Haley; General Manager George w. Smith; Bnsa Canvasman Leonard S. Ay!eSworth; Chef Electrician Ed ward R. Versteeg, and Rolling Stock Superintendent David w. Blanch- field.
 They are awaiting trial in su- perior court.
 Additionally, the coroner held William Galley and Samuel Clark, both seatmen, whose duty, the cor oner said. was to watch for fires who reportedly were absent from and who were reportedly absent from their stations when the blaze broke out.
 Firemen ExOnerated
 Fall responsibility for the disaster --the worst in the history of the circus-was imposed upon the cir cun men. Coroner Healy said he found mo legal duty is imposed on the part of the fire department, police department, or the building department, of the City of Har- ford, to make an official inspection of c1rcuSes under canvas, exhibited in the City of Hartford"

Prison Terms May Replace
 Draft Threat
By DEAN w. DITTMER United Press Staff Correspondent

Washington, Jan. 12-(UP)-Con- gressional leaders indicated today that stiff fines or prison sentences, rather than threats of induction, may be the most practical way to get 18 to 45 year old men into war work and hold them there for the duration.
 Chairman Andrew J. May, D., Ky, of the House Military Affairs com mittee, author of the pending work or fight bill, said he was willing to abandon the provisions for drafting recalcitrant men into special work battalionS in favor of some legal penalty.
 q have never been welded to the idea that they should go into work battalions, especially since the Army said it didn't want or need them" " May said. But there must be some penalty and l understand that sev- eral committee members prefer the fine or imprisonment now provided under the Selective Service Act"
 Violations of the Selective Service Act are punishable by fines of up to $10,000 or imprisonment Of i've years or both.
 Mays statement came as his committee called on It. Gen. Will liam s. Knudsen, Army procurement officer, to testify on tagging produc- tion. May indicated that the com- mittee would delay action on a new manpower bill to give the Congress of Industrial Organizations and the American Federation of Labor their requested opportunity to present their views next week.
 The proposal providing legal pen- alties in Mays bill found support from Rep Paul J. Kilday, D., Tex. He said it was obvious that the Army and Navy don't want work battalions" and that he wuold offer an amendment to prescribe legal penalties for occupationally deferred (COntinued on Page A

Greek Wor Neors End
By JAMES E. ROPER .2I-l NA-- WNT-.. Nnuuoe~nval l

(OnIVeU FrcSS war NOETcSPOHuCn' Athens, Jan. 12 - U.P0 - The bloody Greek civil war will end, at least temporarily, at 12:01 a. m. next Monday under a truce signed by Lieutenant General Ronald Sco- bic, British commander in. Greece, and four representatives of the re- bellious left-wing FAM, it was an- nounced today.
 The truce was agreed upon last night and will prevail during nego- tiations between the FAM and the new Greek government under Re- gent Archbishop Damaskinos and Premier General Nicholas PlaStiraS.
 Main points at issue between the FAM and the government were be- lieved to be the disarmament Of both the Greek National Guard and EAM-ELAS forces and the early trial of Greeks accused of collabor- ating with the Germans.
 Coincidentally with the signing of the truce, it was announced that a British patrol had entered Lamia, nearly 100 miles northwest of Ath- ems and formerly ELIAS headquar- terS, without opposition.
 ELIAS forces also were revealed to have withdrawn from Patrai (Pat- ras), 100 miles west of Athens yes- terday and British forces were searching the town without opposi- tion. Salonika, in northern Greece, also was reported quiet.
 The effective date of the truce was put off to Monday to give ELIAS leaders sufficient time to notify all units of the cease fire" order.
 Under the terms of the truce:
 l. ELIAS forces will withdraw from certain occupied towns and villages before Headlines ranging from 12:01 a. m. January 17 to 12:0l a. m. JaItuA-y "A.
 2. The ELIAS will release all service personnel prisoners of all nationalities, including the Greek government police and national guard, but not Greek civilians de- tained by FAM, parent body of the ELIAS.
