In Berlin Air Lift

Richard 7. James, aviation ma

son of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph James,
500 East Third street, Of the Nav

with U. S. Air Force planes in

Despite the worst flying wealth

coal and food into beleaguered
Berlin as the Naval squadrons OPP
erato with the Air Force from the

fold problem of flying planes thru
conditions rarely faced by airmen
in normal flight operations and of
keeping planes in operating con-
dition in hastily improvised shell

Plan Will Provide Quicker
Action On Claims and Give
Better Service

CLEVELAND, Jan. II -- The
Standard Products Company to-
day began self-insuring its work
mems compensation in plants at
Port Clinton and Cleveland, o.,
and Gaylord and st. Clair, Mich.
"The self-insuring program is
being carried out in line with the
company's policy of always striv-
ing to improve services to the en-
ployees," it was pointed out by
Harry d. Myers, president Of the
compar".
The same rules of procedure and
the same workmen's compensation
laws will continue to apply to
every employee, providing the
same protection as when the COM
pany was insured through the
state funds of Ohio and Michigan.
In the event agreement can not
BE- reached between an employee
and the company on the validity
of any claim, either the employee
or the company can refer the mat
ter to the workmen's compensation
commission for final determina-
ti1E.
Some of the benefits which self
insuring brings to employees, as
outlined by company officials, are:
/. An injured employee will re-
ceive action at once on his>claim.
2. Compensation will be paid to
an injured employee without delay.
3. The company can provide
mere extensive medical services
TO an injured employee.
4. An injured employe in many
cases can be returned to work
more promptly.
In describing the self-insuring
program to employees, the COM
pany pointed out, at is also wise
to remember that more accidents
occur off the job than at work, so
that safety is a full-time assign
ment for everyone"

dustries Along the South Shore
of Lake Erie" at the weekly meet
ing in st. John Lutheran church
Giving evidence of widespread
research for his subject, Mr.. Stark
stated that Ohio is destined to con-
tinue as a great industrial state
and that northern Ohio's lake
shore district is the choicest spot
for new plant locations.
Many new plants are being
moved to the area between Cleve-
land and Toledo because of lake
shipping facilities, adequate wat
er supply, superb railroad facili-
ties and a stable labor condition,
Stark reported.
The Sandusky newspaper man
claims that many corporations are
moving their plants from east
ern cities to this area as part of
the decentralization plan, and that
others will locate here.
He stated that Proctor and
Gamble has purchased land for a
large factory in Sandusky, and
that Philco is building a televi-
sion manufacturing plant in that
area.
"While industrial expansion
brings some unwholesome condi-
tions which must be met by city
officials, communities must be
alert to attract new industries as
to reject such offers is to allay
progress" he warned.

Lakeside "Cat''
Chases Cop

Henry Barney" Bernhardt,
night policeman at Lakeside,
had narrow escape recently
but from an entirely unexpected
source.
While sitting on a box one
night at one of the Lakeside
corners known to be freQuented
by alley cats, Barney" was
watching a suspicious automo-
bile when something rubbed
against his pant legs.
Not taking his eyes off the
auto, Bernhardt reached down
and pettcd the animal, suppos-
edly a cat. Finally he glanced
down, and in Bernhardt's own
words, he cleared Maple Ave
nue. in one leap.
The cat" was n skunk!
