 Down With Imperialism
 Shouting "Banzai for the release of fighters of the Peoples Front, the crowd waved red flags and Korean independence flags - then listened quietly while Communist Kyuichi Tokuda urged overthrow of the imperial system.
 "The imperial system is the root of all evils,' he asserted. Tokuda spent 18 years in prison for voicing such houghts-before Gen. MacAr- thurs directives and Shidehara's s new liberality gave him immunity
 Three other prisons, Kosug e Toyotama and Tokyo Kochisao, also opened on the Oct. 10 deadline set by MacArthur. Many of their po- litical prisoners had been held without charge for 10 to 20 years after they had advocated Com- munism or spoken against the ruling Japanese Government.

STATEMENT MADE
 BY MCLEAN ON Ap CASE, HIGH C0UR1

NEW YORK, Ocu. lU-Robert Me- Lean, President of the Associated Press, has issued the following state ment on the Supreme Courts denial Monday of a petition for rehear- ing on it's ruling that the AP must amend it's bylaws on admis- sion of new members:
 "The Associated Press has been advised by counsel that, with the de- nial of the petition for rehearing, all efforts in the courts in. the govern ment's antitrust action have been exhausted.
 Prompt action will be taken to comply with the decision so that the court injunction may be lifted, since it is inconceivable that the world S greatest news service shall operate permanently under restraint which threatens government supervision of the channels of news.
 Although limitations have been placed on it's right to control it's own affairs, the Associated Press will con- tinue to supply all the news-unbias- ed and untrammeled--w the fi- delity that has characterized it's course since it's foundation.
 Its staff throughout the world is dedicated to this purpose. Its operations are expanding as the tide of war recedes. It will continue to merit the charges leveled against it by the. government that it's service is of outstanding quality and that it's form of organization is assurance that the news gathered and distri- buted by the Associated Press shall be as nearly impartial, objective and complete as human endeavor can make it.

Loan Provisions of
 GI Bill Gets Rise
 From us. Senator

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Senator Millikin (R-Colo) declared today a halt must be called somewhere in broadening the loan provisions of the G. I. Bill of Right.
 After looking over liberalizing amendments suggested by the Veter- ans Administration, the American Legion and other groups, he com- mented:
 Tt looks as if veteran could get a government guaranteed loan of $2,000 for just about any purpose ex- cept to go out to the race track"
 Millikin said the loans should be restricted to such worthwhile pur- poses as building or buying a home, entering business, or financing farming operations.

Bluffton Loses To Lima St. Rose
In Semi-Final Round Of Tourney

Bluffton Highs tournament aspir-
ations come to grief last Thursday
in the semi-final round of the Lima
District exempted and parochial
schools Class B cage tourney at
Ada, when Lima ST. Rose, the even
tual champions, eliminated the Pi-
rates by score of 81 to 10.
In the opening round of the tour
nament the locals had momentarily
raised the hopes of local followers by
disposing of Lima st. Johns, defend
ing regional champions, SO to 27.
Against St. Johns, the Pirates put
on sterling performance to over
come first-half disadvantage and
go on to victory.
Bluffton had led at the end of the
first quarter, to A, but at halftime
the Johnnies were out in front, IL
to IA. The Pirates uncorked a
fiashy attack in the third period,
however, to take the advantage, 25
to %, at the close of the quarter,
and in the opening minutes of the
last stanza they ran the count to 36
to 23 before the Lima team could
break the scoring ice.
Bob Gratz, with II points, paced
the Bluffton victors, and Klassen
added IL more to the total of the
Pirates.
st. Rose, which was to win the
tournament title in the champion
ship round on Saturday night, led
most of the way in eliminating Bluff
ton from the running in their 81
to 10 conquest last Thursday night.
At the end of the first quarter
neither team had done much in the
way of scoring and the score was
tied at four-all The Lima crew had
% to Ia advantage at halftime,
and really went to town in the third
period when they ran the score to
% to "A.
Bluffton then got only five points
in the closing quarter, while ST.
Rose was adding nine more to their
total.
Zimmerly with eight points and
Klassen with five carried the brunt
of the Pirates attack.
Other first-round scores in the
tournament were: st. Rose 81, st.
Gerard, 80; Ada 40, Delphos st.
Johns 25; Delphos Jefferson Al,
Wapakonesta st. Joseph 20.
In the second round, Ada lost to

The department announces that one
third of the units available for this
spring have already been applied for.
Arrangements are under way by the

ing which in most instances can be
accomplished by two men in less than
hours work.
Patch paintings are available again
this year and the department will
provide the seeds, but seeds are not
to be sent from Columbus, but in
stead applications are to be made di-
rectly to the local game protector who
will buy the seeds and handle the
transactions locally. Club directors
in charge of this program are willing
to handle the details for all those in
terested in setting out patch plants.
Patch plants contain seeds which pro-

Those three nimrods who displayed
such an unusual catch of fox furs at
the last club meeting further aided
the cause of the predator eradicating
department by displaying their pelts
for the benefit of the club publicity
program.
Leon Hauenstein and Cliff Elliott
were on hand last Saturday afternoon
to make complete record in motion
and still pictures of the display of
furs at the Klingler home on the Lin
coin highway.
The three hunters, Dean More, JUS
tin Klingler and Wayne Cooney all
living south of Bluffton proved their
prowess at outsmarting Mr.. Fox this
winter and have ID fox pelts to dis
play as proof of their ability.
Their method of bagging Sir Rey-
nard was to spot the animals tracks
from car in the snow and then one
of the party would set out on foot
to follow the trail. The other two
nimrods meanwhile drove to a point
opposite the field or sectin where they
figured the fox would burst from cove,
and then from an advantageous posi-
tion would dispatch the critter with
rifle shot.
Other club directors assisting with
the filming of the display of furs were
Russell Montgomery, Wilbur Niswan-
der and Kenneth Dearth.
House Vote Favors Warfare on Foxes
Emergency legislation authorizing
year-round warfare on foxes-grey
and red-was passed by the Ohio
House of Representatives and sent to
the Senate.
Proponents of the measure, approx
ed 102 to 21, contended the fox pop
ulation had increased to such an ex-
tent that the animals had become a
public menace" by their raids on
turkey fiocks and hen houses.
Red foxes now may be hunted only
between Nov. Is and Jan. Is. Grey
foxes may be hunted at any time, ex-
cept Sunday.
The Conservation Commission has
submitted bill to the legislature to
place the fox on the vermin list in
stead of the game list. Such action
will allow execution of these preda-
tors at all times.
Southern Ohio counties argue fox
hunting is rated above the sport of
kings and would have the conservation
commission protect him as a fur-bear-
ing animal. But, in the northern sec
tions of the state the farmers can see
no good in Mr.. Fox at all and want
no closed season on the critter and
have him placed on the vermin list
with bounty up to 81.
