State Conservation officials stated
this week that 100000 minnows, fur
nished by the Electric Auto-Lite Co.
of Toledo as part of the settlement
for pollution damage in the Little
Miami River below their lamp plating
plant at Kings Mills, o., have been
released in the four-mile stretch of
water between Kings Mills and Love-
land.
In addition to furnishing minnows
the company reimbursed the state
$4,000 for the pollution damage
early in September which killed
of fish and minnows, and
in addition have already taken steps
to follow correction measures to pre-
vent a recurrence of the pollution.

fish life.
Bill Edwards and son Roger had
some excitement near the airport in
Orange twp. They were headed north
in their car on the airport road near
the 103 junction when suddenly Bill
spotted a red fox crouched in ditch
near culvert.
On first glance the fox appeared to
be sleeping, so he quickly planned to
sneak up on the rascal with his gun
After a few moments he realized
something was wrong so the two
hunters walked up to the fox and
it was dead. The fox had
escaped after some hunter
had blasted away at it. A good sized
hole was torn in the hide. The critter
evidently had been dead only a short
time for the hide was in good con-
dition.
The pair took the fox to Jesse Man
ges, local fur buyer, where investiga-
tion will be made to determine who
shall be entitled to the bounty

Vets Pledged State Bonus

Hartford, Oct. 23-CUP)-Action on a state soldiers bonus bill was promised by leaders of both major parties today following statement by Attorney General William l.. Hadden that such a measure is legal.
 In 8 Republican campaign talk, Hadden said, there will be no con- stitutional prohibition or barrier in the way of the legal enactment of the bonus bill which has been sub mitted to me for an opinion"
 This ruling brought from Lt.-Gov. Wilbert Snow demand that spec ial session of the General Assembly be called right after election day to take up the bonus and veterans housing. Only in such session, said Snow, "can the hurly-burly of the political game be prevented from delaying the action so urgently needed"
 Shows Republican rival, Dr. James L. McConaugfy, however. said that while he was "unqualifiedly" for a bonus, he thought the matter could be taken up during the next regular session starting in January.

Chiong Faces Arms ms'Freeze'
 U. s. Considering
 Holt to Shipments

Nanking, Sept. IS. UP)-Reliable but unconfirmed reports circulating in Ranking said today the United States might consider freezing war surplus shipments to China tempo rarily" in an effort to halt the Civil war.
 Observers believed such action might revive Communist interest in the stalemated peace negotiations. Chief Communist Negotiator Chou En-lai has said repeatedly that the sale of U. S. war equipment to China was prolonging the fighting He left Nanking Monday for Shanghai after Generalissimo Chi ang Kai-shek rejected the Commu- mist demand for a 'ceaSe fire'' order as the No. coalition for con- tinued peace negotiations.
 Sporadic street fighting was re- ported today in the Communist grand canal base of Huaiyin, 100 miles north of Nanking. A few Com munist pockets" were holding out, but the city was virtually in Ma tionalist hands, according to gov- ernment reports.
 Government sources said the cap ture of Huaiyin would mean "the beginning of the end' of fighting in north Kiangsu province.
 Communist troops south of Huai- yin reportedly were fighting with their backs to the sea. Field dis patches said the Communists had been driven into shrinking pocket" between Hwaian and Jukao, 80 air miles northwest of Shanghai.

Life Lines ToNew York City Reopen
 500 Companies
 Sign Contracts
 With Teumsters

New York, Sept. 18-UP)-Thou- sands of trucks reopened the life lines of the nations largest city to- day, partially ending the 18-day general trucking strike. Nearly 800 hauling companies had signed new contracts with the A.FL. teamsters.
 However, two large trucking asso- citations held out against union de- mands and announced they would file suit today for $10,000,000 strike damages against Local 807 of the International Brotherhood of Team Sters (A.F.L).
 As trucks brought much-needed supplies into the freight-isolated city, two grocery chains once more filled their shelves with food and some newspapers returned to their normal number of pages.
 Mayor William ODwyer predicted that local truck operations would be back to normal well before the end of the week" with all the operators settling for the $7.40 weekly wage raise and reduction of the work week from A to 40 hours which has been contained in new contracts signed so far.
 The 2,000 trucking companies be- longing to the Motor Carrier and State Motor Truck Associations which are resisting the teamsters' demands have called meeting for 8 P. M. (EDT), today to conside- their position.
 Joseph M. Adelizzi, spokesman for the two trucking associations, said suit for $10,00O,0 900 damages would be filed in Federal court for the loss of business the companies have suffer- ed during the strike.
 He said the suit was based on the grounds that the union had violated the Smith-C -Connally Act by not giv- ing 30 days notice before calling the strike at midnight Sept. l.
 AdelizI asserted there was no chance of the trucking companies he represented giving in to "the exhor- bitant wage demands"
