numerous dispatches telling of the
arrest Of agents allegedly engaged
in seizing certificates in the south.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Taranto said the Communist Mayor
Of the nearby town OF San Giorno

The two were accused of canceling

The dispatch said police were in

The government recently warned
citizens to refuse their election pa

Tired Feeling
Blamed for Most
| Auto Accidents

Two-thirds more traffic accidents
occur when work-weary motorists
are homeward bound than during
the morning rush hours, the Key
stone Automobile Club said today.
Attrihuting the higher evening
toll to mental and bodily fatigue.
Ernest r. Brett, club manager, said
the ratio of accidents was estab-
lshed in a five-year study.
Alert and fresh in the morning,
the motorist drives with ease and
confidence. But when his mental,
physical and nerve efficiency is low
after days work, his driving lacks
the assurance of the morning run
Mr.. Brett said.
Until the automotive industry can
correct mechanical conditions con-
tributing to that tired feeling" il
would be well for the driver to per-
nit himself a longer time for the
homeward journey than for the
morning spin. Mr.. Brett advised.

Covell Of the first precinct, Miss
Estar Taback, association manager
wrote, in part:
ANY one may observe in reading
Mr.. Steel's written material that
his position on international ano
domestic affairs is similar in many
respects to that of presidential
candidate Henry A. Wallace. Ano
you may know that recently, ir
various parts of the country, hood.
lum and violent efforts have beer
made by some un-American groups
to prevent and obstruct free speech
on the part OF Mr.. Wallace anc
others holding to his views"
Miss Taback said several othel
organizations accustomed to NEE
in the building had objected to tht
lecture and suggested "the posi-.
bility exists of few hotheads max.
ing trouble"

cussed at length in closed hearings

unless per cent sales tax is
adopted to make up the difference.
