COUNTYGETS
$17,382 FOR
VET HOUSING
Commissioners Study
Methods For Its Use
VIII Probably Buy

Check for $17,382, Union coun-
tvs share in the recently enacted
Ohio emergency housing program
for veterans, has been received and
the Union county commissioners
are studying possible ways of MAX
ing use of the money.
The check for that amount was
sent here last Thursday by State
Treasurer Don H. Ebright, only a
few days after the commissioners
had made application for it.
While no definite decision as to
use of the money has been made
here, the Commissioners are of the
opinion that they should buy old
houses, rather than attempt to
build anything at the present
time.
ITO build anything now would
just delay actually getting dwell
ings for veterans who need more, F"
Commissioners Walter Harrington
said today. Besides that, mater
ials are difficult to obtain and
building costs are high"
Purpose of the program is for
the acquisition of temporary hous-
ing or the renovation of existing
dwellings into temporary housing
In each county, the commission
erS are set up as supervising
agents for the program.
Under the provisions of the bill,
the county commissioners can un-
dertake the project themselves or
designate some organization, such
as one of veterans, or special
committee, to carry out the provi-
SionS of the act.
Principal reason for enactment
of the law is to allow counties to
acquire barracks and other unused
structures. Federal funds allocated
for this purpose having been re-
Gently exhausted.
To receive the money the coun-
ty commissioners must make ap-
plication. to State Treasurer and
use the money only for that pur-
pose. Other political subdivisions,
counties, or cities may add to the
fund or assist in other ways such
as supplying utilities, sidewalks,
and the like.
Title of the housing is to re-
main with the county commission
ers, the dwellings to be rented to
veterans at fair and equitable
price, commensurate with the SER
vices and facilities provided.
Rents collected under the act
are to be deposited in the county
veterans housing fund to be
used for maintenance and opera
tion of the property.
The commissioners must put the
funds into use before Dec. 81, 1949,
expiration date of its provisions
However, they may continue as
landlords until Dec. 81, 1851, the
law provides.
The commissioners may then
sell any or all of the property and
deposit the proceeds to the gen.
eral revenue fund of the county,
Any sum of the original county ap-
preparation remaining on Dec. 81,
1949, will be returned to the States
general fund.
Under the original act proposed
by Gov. .Lausche, the funds would
have been available only to those
communities which have been ac-
quiring housing under the federal
plan, and have established housing
authorities.
This. it was pointed out, would
include about 40 of the larger
cities, and would have excluded
Logan county and Bellefontaine.
AS yet, the county commissions
ers have designated no organiza-
tion or committee to carry out the
provisions of the act.

INCOR WINS
SECOND GAME

The Incor Hotel won its second
game in the Cardington tourna-
ment Sunday, defeating Mayfair
team from Marion 6 to 0, behind
the two-hit pitching of Bob Milli-
gan, former Cardinal pitcher. Mill
igan had not pitched a game this
summer, due to the fact he just re-
turned from the service.
Harv HaddiX, pitcher who pitch
ed Jeffersonville to State semi-pro
championship, was supposed to
pitch for Incor but was unable to
be present, so the Incor manage
ment had to start another pitcher.
Milligan had been playing short
stop for the Incor boys and was
doing nice job when whether he
felt like starting or not he said,
"Pll sure try" Milligan struck out
Is Mayfair batsmen in the seven
inning game and did not walk a
single man.
The catcher for the Incor team
was Glen Folck, from Springfield.
He was catcher for the Jefferson
vile team in the National semi
pro tournament at Witcha, KanS.
AS for Milligan's pitching, Folck
made the remark, Il have caught
for many pitchers but never seen
one that has an out drop ball that
Milligan has"
The leading hitters for the In
cor were: Blazer, three for three,
including two doubles; Coder, two
for three with one double; Herriott,
two for three and Brown, one
double.
Ellington Mayfair pitcher, who
played pro-ball before the war, had
a very fast ball but his support
was weak. Last Monday night he
pitched for the Schlairet Transfer
team against Marion Cardinals, de-
feating them 6-5. Ellington had 10
strikeouts to his credit but allowed
eight hits and walked five men.
]. Higgins and Hartley made
the only hits the Mayfair team got.

 5hipnlen Offer New Proposal
Compromise Deals with
 Four Points of Marine Union s Demand

WASHINGTON, June 5. - West coast ship operators today offered a new compromise proposal to the Marine Firemen's Union in fresh attempt to head off the threatened mid-June maritime strike on all coasts.
 As this move brightened the prospects of settlement, conciliation Director Edgar L. Warren said he believed it too early" for the gov- ernment to step in with it's own settlement proposal.
 But maybe we will later" War ren told reporters during a break in the day-long negotiations be- tween the country's shiplines and the seven-union, CIO-dominated committee for maritime unity.
 Terms of the offer were not dis closed. President John B. Bryan of the Pacific American Shipown- CTS Association said it dealt with everything'-in other words, the entire four-point demand levied on employers by the Independent Fire mems Union.

AT( REVEALS GREAT CIRCLE FLIGHT PLANS
Regular Freight and Mail Service Across North
 Pacific Slated

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.--The Army Air Transport Command an- nounced today it would begin re- gular freight and mail flights to Japan via the North Pacific's Great Circle Route June 15.
 Brig. Gen. D. O. Strother, Com mander of the West Coast wing Of the ATC's Pacific Division, said one regular flight would be made every day via Anchorage, Alaska, and Adak in the Aleutians clipping about 12 hours from the present crossing time.
 Coming East, with favorable winds, flights of less than "A hours will be fairly common,' he said, making it possible to leave Tokyo on Saturday and reach the U. $. the same day, by gaining day crossing the International Date line"
 The big Douglas C-54s will take off from the Fairfield-S -Suisun Army Air Base near the northeastern- most arm of San Francisco Bay nop 632 miles to Seattle, 1868 to Anchorage, 1,195 to Adak and then 24O0 to Tokyo. They will fly at an altitude of around 5000 to 10000 feet.
 An alternate route, to be used when more weather information is available, would skip Anchorage, making a direct flight of 2,48o miles from Seattle to Adak.
 General Strother's announcement accorded much credit for opening the new route to exploratory work and flights by Col. James w. Chapman Jr., of Austin, Tex, west coast Wing Operations Chief.
 General Strother said demobili- ration of weather observers and forecasters had crippled forecasts at the northern bases and before the alternate route could be used either weather reporting vessels would have to be stationed on each side of Adak or weather reporting aircraft make periodic flights vest ward from Adak.

 He said he told MT. Truman:
 "The Case bill is bill that will not eliminate strikes, will not help industry and may create more trouble than anything else.
 As for the Presidents reaction the Congressman said merely that The was very glad to see me"

Bread Lines Lengfhening Across Nation as Wheat
 Shortage Becomes Aeuie

CHICAGO, June 5--Bread lines were forming in most of the na- tion's stores and bakeries as the country experienced it's worst wheat shortage, but the Millers National Federation predicted relief iii two or three weeks.
 However, Herman Steen. executive secretary of the Federation, said This is the worst week the millers will have and added that from 80 to 90 percent of the nations flour mills will shut down for lack of wheat to grind into flour.
 Scarcely any city escaped the pinch.
 However, two factors pointed to an upturn. They were the new winter wheat crop, running 25 pre- cent above expectations, coming in in Texas and Oklahoma; and a plan by the Department of Agri- culture to divert some foreign re- lief wheat stocks to the most acute bread shortage areas.
 Steen predicted the shortage would we considerably relieved by mid-to-late July as more of the new winter crop reaches the mills.
 He said, however, government red tape shipping the grain from elevators to mills, getting the right blend" for bread flour, and de livering the flour to bakers, all would require a time lag of two oi more weeks.

Maritime Strike Pdrleys Hang on Reduced
 Hours for Seamen

WASHINGTON. June 5-The Coast Guard, as well as the Navy, counted it's manpower today as the big question--"Will there be mari time strike June 15?' - loomed over Washington.
 The Coast Guard sent out stop orders on discharges which it later explained applied only to regular personnel in oyer-manned ratings who had been allowed to apply for discharge before their enlistment terms were up.
 co Dtscharging Reseruists
 This affects approximately 2,000 out of a total Coast Guard strength of 24,000 in ratings now above their authorized peacetime levels. The Coast Guard said reseryists are con- tinuing to be discharged as before. Naval stations were reporting to headquarters on the number oi men on hand with cargo-yessel ex- perience.
 l There was no secret among off cials that if the joint strike of GIG 0eamen and dock workers takes place, the government will have a problem finding qualified men to operate the merchant fleet as President Truman has promised to do.

TRUMAN A(TS TO RECONCILE ARMED FORCES
Single Chief of Staff Issue Now Scratched from
 Merger Plans

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The proposal for single chief of staff over the armed forces was report ed the first casualty today, as President Truman personally un- dertook to reconcile Army Navy merger differences.
 The single chief of staff proposal was strongly plugged by the Army but Congressional circles heard re- ports the President had decided against it, removing it from fur ther consideration in merger plans.
 A Senator who declined use of his name told reporter it is his information that MT. Truman has sided with the Navy on this partic- ular issue.
 The fact that MT. Truman is talk ing over the job of resolving Army Navy merger disagreement was dis closed after 90-minute conference yesterday between the President, Secretary of Navy Forrsstal and Secretary of War Patterson. White House Press Secretary Charles G. Ross reported MT. Tru- man termed it "a very construc- tive session."
 Nevertheless, Forrestal was re- ported sticking by the Navy's con- tention that two departments, with separate cabinet members, should be maintained instead of the single department of common defense suggested in a bill sponsored by Chairman Ebert D.
