 Above Freezing
 The Chicago weather bureau said temperatures would climb well above freezing over most of the midwest today and that most of the snow which fell ill the wake of last weeks freezing rain and sleet probably would be melted by nightfall, along with the ice on communications wires, poles and trees. But another day of similar temperatures probably would be required to dispose of the ice which lay under the snow, said Forecaster w. N. Percy.
 Except for readings of IA de- grees at Rockford and Moline Ill., last night the mercury dipped no lower generally than the POS ill the midwest Some areas re- ported a night long thaw witf readings in the lower sos.
