IF 1T ISN'T all settled by We'd

maybe several months. A re-
sponsible union official informs this

of the various chemicals. This type
of plant cannot be shut down. It's
dangerous. Already miles of pipe
have been ruined 1000 cells
in the chlorine dept. must be re-
placed. If the strike were settled
this minute. the plant could not
resume operation. Much of it must
be refitted. Eighteen hours of
idleness practically ruins a plant
of this type.

There has been no violence. One
worker did get poke in the nose
for calling another "a scab'.
Union officials are attempting to
have beer gardens in the area

have been some cases of drunken

40 YEARS AGO
IN WYANDOTTE

Nearly 300 Crosse lie residents
were knocking a blind pig" on
the island. They alleged that the
proprietor dealed his liquor out
generously although, they said, he
had a license to sell liquor for me-
dicinal purposes only. A delegation
bearing petition with 284 sigma
lures demanding that the place be
closed up was sent to the prosecu-
tor who declined to act until he
received more evidence.
The Herald reported: "Glenwood
can now boast of a lid the like of
which has not equal. The lid is
down on Sundays but it is not the
village officers who are sitting on
it. Jealousy among the village sa-
loonkeepers resulted in some of the
saloonists climbing onto the lid
themselves and it is said that 1t
will be closed for some time"
Petitions were being circulated
among the merchants asking that
the width of the new pavement in
the business section be 80 feet
whether or not the DUR paved
more than its single track.

An American warship was put at
the disposal of King Ibn Saud to
bring the ruler of Arabia to see
the President.
The discussions with the Eastern
rulers, the statement said, were
in line with the Presidents desire
that heads of governments through
out the world should get together
whenever possible to talk as friends
and exchange views in order TO
better understand the problems OF
one another"
The President rejoined Mr..
Churchill-who returned to London
yesterday-at Alexandria and, while
they were together only four hours,
the White House statement said
this meeting permitted new and
important discussions of at least
one subject they could not take up
before. That had to do with Japan
and the war in the Pacific where
Soviet Russia is neutral power"

continued, told the President in
blunt words that his government
was determined to throw everything
it had az The Japs as soon as
Germany had been defeated and,
meanwhile, would do all it could to
strengthen its forces already en-
gagged in that conflict"
At Alexandria, the President also
received Secretary of State Stet-

Molotov "had been altogether sat-

Confer in Alexandria

Another conference between the
President and Prime Minister
Churchill was held at Alexandria
Although it lasted less than four
hours-a brief affair when COM
pared to the eight days they spent
together with Marshal Stain in the
Crimea-the meeting in Egypt per-
mitted new and important discus
sions of at least one subject which
they could not take up before That
had to do with Japan and the war
in the Pacific where Soviet Russia
is a neutral power.
Mr.. Churchill told the President
in blunt words that his govern
ment was determined to throw
everything it had at the Japs as
soon as Germany has been defeated
and, meanwhile, would do all it
could to strengthen its forces already
engaged in that conflict.
Secretary Stettinius, en- route
from Moscow to make official calls
in Liberia, Southwest Africa, Brazil
and thence to the Inter- American
Conference in Mexico City, was
waiting to see the President when
he reached Alexandria. The Sec
retary reported on the meetings he
held in Moscow with Foreign Com
miSSar Molotov. He told the Presi-
dent they had been altogether sat-
isfactory and that he had thor
oughly enjoyed his visit to the Rus
sian capital.
Ambassador Winant had been in
vited to join the Presidents party
and had come by air from London.
He and the President spent hours
together during the several days
he remained with the party.
Two more Ambassadors, jefferson
Caffery from Paris and Alexander
Kirk from Rome, were found watt
ing in the French city of Algiers, the
last stopping place on the road to
Washington. They had been given
advance notice of the Presidents
coming and, in that way, it was
made possible for him personally
to bring the three Ambassadors up
to date on all that took place in the
Crimea conference as well as to
advise them fully. regarding his
meetings with the rulers of Egypt,

The Appalachian area ban on the
use Of natural or mixed gas in

and will end at the same hour to-
morrow night.
It applies to Ohio. Pennsylvania,

War Utilities, said the new short
age had necessitated shutting down
some war plants in Pittsburgh,
Cleveland, Akron, Toledo, Canton,
Dayton, Columbus, Cincinnati,
Wheeling, Youngstown, Buffalo and
other communities in the area.
He appealed to all domestic and
commercial users Of natural gas to
reduce their consumption to "an
absolute minimum" as long as the
cold weather lasts.
The amusement ban applies to
theaters, including motion picture
houses, bowling alleys, night clubs,
bars, saloons and similar establish
ments.
These places may use only

Motion picture houses and bowl
ing alleys win be little affected by
the curfew as most Of them are
closed by midnight.
Hugh Arbaugh, former president
OF the Washington Alley Operators
Association, estimated that only
about / per cent OF the total vol
tlme OF business of alleys would be
affected by the order. He said some
alleys remain open after midnight on
Saturdays, but they will now be ex-
pected to shut down in time to
abide by the Governments request
Frank La Falce reported that the
Earle Theater would hold its last
midnight show Saturday and will not
resume until the Byrnes order is re-
yoked. He also said they were re-
viewing the schedule for the new
show opening Thursday in order to
make sure the program ends before
midnight.
Loew's Capitol Theater, which has
10 late Saturday show ending around
! am, also plans a rescheduling
next week, an ofncial OF Loew's said.
This procedure probably will be
followed by other exhibitors, par
ticularly when they are showing
one Of the longer pictures.
Meanwhile, the District Commis-
sioners pledged cooperation in the

steps would be taken at this time.

ident told the general he had hoped
very much to meet him in conti-

lido so. He again expressed warm
thanks for the invitation the gov

AS dispatched from Yalta, the
Presidents invitation concluded with
an expression of real hope that the
alternative proposal for meeting
in Algiers would be satisfactory to
the French leader. The; President
was most disappointed when adj
vised that oficial business did not
permit the general to come to Al-
