It wal pointed out that the proposal would have to be acted upon by the boards of each of the roads concerned.

If an ICC go-ahsad were obtained, New ton said, the proposal then would be submitted to the stockholders d each of the four lines for final &C., ticn.

 The c & o ofacial said many passenger routes would be cut con siderabiy in length as result oi the merger. Other savings would bt accomplished through the standafd- izAtion of equipment and routine. c 6 o at the board meeting yes terday, also voted a 75 cent dividend on each share of the roads $26 pal common stock for the third quartei of 1Sl5, payable October first to stockholders on record Sept. 2. c 6 o ofiicials felt optimistic about the roads prospects for the coming year. They pointed out that increased European demand fol coal. along with the possible lifting |.of present domestic restrictions would cause a jump in the c & o's already large coal traffic.
 Newton pointed out that the c & o was in a better position than most roads because 06 per cent of its origin coal loads originate in districts seven and eight, which pro duce the bituminous coals in high- est demand for both industry and domestic consumers.

 der suspended from the chassis of the truck and located just in front of the rear right wheel of the truck. The boy was one of two playing on the easterly side of route 8 or the northerly side of Burton road. The first of these two boys ran from the easterly side to the westerly side of route 8, in front of the truck. The second, or the boy Gerald Krzy- kowski, came from in front of one parked car and behind another parked car. and either ran into or tripped and fell into the path of the truck, striking his head against the rear of the ladder suspended from the truck, as described above.
 The death resulted from com- pound, comminuted fracture of the skull and a lacerated eyulsed brain.
 The driver of the truck never saw the boy before the actual con- tact with the ladder. The helper, Moore, either directly with his own eye or with the aid of the mirror, saw the boy come in contact with the ladder and notified the driver.

to these factors:
 1. The army already had accuI11- ulated huge stockpiles in Europe and the Pacific and probably would have slackened purchases even Il the war had continued.
 2. Quantities of meat particular ly beef, arriving on the market have been larger than anticipated. This heavy flow promises to ln- crease this fall.
 Slaughtering Aided
 The Office of Price Admiilistra- ton probably will lift present re- strictions on livestock slaughter Dy mid-September. These quotas, the subject of much criticism, were inn posed on packing plants to improve distribution during the worst short age period.
 Meantime, 1t was learned that the army has ceased all purchases o1 canned meat, a direct result of the wars end. Timed meat was required in tropical climates and battle zones where refrigeration was scarce. Now, fresh meat can be quickly shipped to troops slmost everywhere.
 This development means that whatever military purchases are made will be entirely of the better grades of meat. Cheaper grades were suitable for canning. Choice steaks and roasts, however, will still be available for civilians in larger quantities, officials predicted.
 No Export of Meats :,
 Agriculture Department officials said 1t was unlikely that meat woulo be exported for European relief "tol some time" Rather, large quantities win be released to European popu' lations from military stockpiles 1T that theater. .,
 The improved red meat situation is expected to have a favorable ai' feet on civilian poultry supplies complete removal or . sharp reduc. ton in the military set-aside or poultry production in the east aac midwest probably soon VIII be an rounced.

enforcement of the Potsdarn terms, appears to be careful not to hurt the feelings of the Japanese people.
 The newspaper admonished the nation against any rash action which it said would cause serious concern to Hirohito and further trouble for the entire Japanese peo- pie.
 Asahi said the American attitude toward Japan's surrender emissaries indicated that the United States would treat the Japanese nation with understandings"
 Tokyo also said that civilian pas- senger travel would be restricted in the Greater Tokyo area for the next four days to speed the evacu- ation of Japanese soldiers from the areas to be occupied by Allied troops.

 U. s. Secretary of State James Byrnes said Monday that the United States also was not ''satisfied" that the Bulgarian election arrangements would permit all democratic clements to participate ''free from force and intimidation"
 Greek Situation
 Tzvestia directly analysed the sit- uation relating to Greece. Though 1t did not mention Bulgaria, the dispatch coincided with the Anglo American protests to that country and Bulgaria lies ever more closely within the Soviet zone of influence
 The Moscow newspaper said the question of supervising elections had been raised at the PotsdaiiA confer ence by Britain and the United States, regarding not only Greece, but also countries which stand on the eve of elections"
 "The Soviet government tocK 9 negative attitude toward sending representatives to supervise elections in those countries, pointing out the incompatibility of this measure with the principle of state independence and sovereignty over which such sue pervision is established" 1zvestia said.
 Others Involved
 Outside supervision of elections within liberated countries would undermine rather than strengthen democracy, the newspaper con" tended.
 Tzvestia hintsd that Russia might refuse to recognize the results oi the Greek election because local conditions prevented a free expres- sion of opinion.

 Georgiev abolished all nominal parties and established an all-em- bracing fatherland front, then clas- sified his government as non-parti- san. Balkan dispatches contended however. that Communist influence prevailed in both the government and fatherland front.

To the group he brought vast experinece acquireo as the Quartermaster of the 8th Ar Force Service Command. Units Of the lst Intransit Depot Group, were in the. Assault Task Forces, on D. Day. and landed on the French coast, on D 1. They immediately set out to Segregate vital Ar Force sup plies on the beaches, and to pre- stock the initial landing strips. The success of the Groups mission ii substantiated by the fact that ne airiel sortie was postponed for lack of supplies. With the arrival of the Air Depot Groups on the continent the lst I.

 Unit Broken Up
 After the breakthrough at St. Lo the Group was broken up into small mobile attachments, which were flown to the scattered advanced aii strips, to set up POL, (Petrol, OH Lubricants) dumps.
