0W NERS SEEK
OPENING OF new
STREET IN CITY
Witt Addition Property Own
ers Ask Council To Open
ThorOfare

Plans for remedial sewer action,
speeded up by Sundays torrential
rain, and a plea for the opening
of a new road in the Witt Addi-
tion between Jackson Drive and
Payne Addition were discussed
Tuesday night at the regular coun-
Gil meeting.
Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Bowden,
Mr.. and Mrs. Rodney Lockwood,
and Albert Witt, property owners
in the Witt addition, asked coun-
Gil to authorize opening of the
South Harrison street. They stat
ed the acreage was plotted but
the street never was officially
opened. Mayor Becker promised
the street committee would inves-
tigate and the date was set for
this Friday evening.
Among those asking for rene
dial sewer action We're Warren
McDougall, Alice Street, and Ar
chic King, West Second Street.
McDougall showed photographs
taken early Sunday when water
covered his neighborhood. King
stated that since the alley level
was raised between Monroe and
Harrison, water floods the lots
facing West Second. Councilmen
will investigate to find quick re-
medies.
A petition asked for concrete
curbing between Sixth and Sew
enth streets in Washington Street
was read. Property owners sign
ing included Elsie Brough, Ruth
Wilson, N. C. Nicholson, Christ
Dubbert and others.
City Engineer Kent Wedekind
was instructed to draw up plans
and establish grade for this i'm
provement.
A letter from the district Board
of Health was read, which notified
council that a new Contagious Di-
sease Hospital has been opened
in Toledo and that out-of-town pa
tients will no longer be admitted
unless they are from areas which
have signed contracts promising
payment to the city of Toledo.
AS nearly all patients sent to
the Toledo hospital in late years
have been polio victims, and their
care is paid by the Infantile Par
alysis Assn, the matter will be
further investigated before any
action is taken.
City Clerk William Zeis report
ed a letter had been received from
the owner of the former trailer
camp at East Fifth and Lincoln
Drive, and that the owner sent an
engineer here Tuesday to check on
manhole covers which had been
deemed unsafe.
Mr.. Zeis and Mr.. Wedekind ac-
companied the engineer on a visit
to the fields Tuesday, when six
manholes were checked. AS these
are six feet deep and are danger
Gus to unsuspecting children, the
owner will have them filled at his
expense.
Fire Chief Walter Miller asked
that eight pairs of boots and eight
raincoats be purchased for volun-
teer firemen, which request was
unanimously approved.
AS all other township trustees
have signed contracts for fire pro-
lection with this city, councilmen
expressed alarm over the Cataw-
ba Island township trustees fail
ure to provide protection for their
residents.
Several weeks ago the Catawba
trustees baked at the new fire rate
of $500 annually and refused to
sign contract. AS Port Clinton's
fire department is insured, and the
insurance depends on signed con-
tracts, severe loss to the city
could result if any fire equipment
was damaged on a run to Catawba.
Courcilmen decided to set a June

Clevelands shipping industry
began even before the city was
established
AS early as 1886, there was a
trading post at the mouth of the
Cuyahoga River to facilitate
transshipment of -four and bacon
brought overland from Pittsburgh
and then by water TO the military
post at Detroit Ten years later
Moses Cleavelands party from
Connecticut landed at this point
on Lake Erie and land out the city
of Cleveland.
The first stage coach line from
Cleveland to Columbus was opened
in 1920 and soon other stage lines
were started to Pittsburgh and
Buffalo over the primitive roads
through the wilderness. But in
spite of favorable location and re-
sources Cleveland failed ito grow
much until after the Ohio and
Erie Canal was opened In 1925
Cleveland had but 500 population.
In fifteen years 26,5l2 people lived
in this city Along the canal other
cities such as Akron sprang up
and prospered.
The early canals combined with
the lake shipping facilities to make
possible the meeting of iron ore
and coal in the northeastern sec
tion Of Ohio to produce the steel
industry at Cleveland, Warren and
Youngstown. Portions of the Ohio
and Erie Canal still carry water to
many industries along Its route.
Hundreds of miles of canals
coursed through thirty seven Ohio
counties from 1926 10 Civil War

fifty years ago there were only
Indian trails and pack trails of
the pioneers who settled the West
ern Reserve. Motorists today find
many points of interest in this
section of the state, from the vast,
Pymatuning Lake on Route 6 at
the Pennsylvania line to the falls
of the Cuyahoga River at Akron,
and from Cleveland's busy harbor
to Youngstown's famed Mill Creek
Park. Mosquito Lake on Routes
81, 46, and 80 and the Chardon
Lakes around Chardon on Routes
6 and "A, provide fishing and
boating recreation of unequaled
quality. Many motorists believe
that the Berkshires of Ohio, the
hills around Burton on Route 81,
make up one of the most beautiful
scenic portions of this state.

drawn canal boats and visited
Ohio's beauty spots that today de-
light motorists on our modern
highways. Aqueducts carried the
canals across rivers and creeks at
hundreds of spots. The Tinker
Greek aqueduct on Canal Road
near Cleveland and the locks not
far away are points of interest for
automobile tourists today.
The Portage Lakes at Akron,
lakes we'll known to the Indians
and the early pioneers, supplied
water for the operation of the
Ohio and Erie Canal as the canal
boats were locked across the high

 Sen. Rebufi

WASHINGTON, Oct. l3.-tRi-A smarting 53 to Is defeat on the re- appointment of Federal Power Com missioner Leland Olds today hand ed President Truman this third and sharpest-Senate rebuff this year on an important nomination
 Despite the pressure of party dis cipline which MT. Truman marsh alled behind the nominee, the Sen ate refused overwhelmingly to re- turn Olds to the Commission for a third term.
 The vote came shortly after mid night. It followed weeks of debate which steadily mounted in heat ano bitterness.
 Opponents shouted that Olds is 6 foe of capitalism, that 20 years age he wrote articles that helped pro- mote Communism.
 Senator Edwin c. Johnson 0t- Colo.) called him "a warped, ty- rannical, mischievous. egotistical chameleon whose predominant col or is pink"
 Senators supporting the nomina- ton countered with charges that private gas and oil interests were backing the fight against Olds.
 Olds said he had nothing to say about the Senate's action beyond this: T think everybody knows where I stand and what I stand for"
 He told a reporter that he had made no plans about another joc -"I just haven't gotten around tc that yet"
 Early in the session, Senate committee bottled up MT. Truman's nomination of former Gov. Mon Wallgren of Washington to be chairman of the Nationel Security Resources Board. The Senate also rejected the nomination of Carl A. Ilgenfritz to the Chairman of the Munitions Board because Ilgenfritz, steel company executive, had accepted the appointment only on condition that he might keep his private sal ary.

The W ashinqton Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON icopyrisnt. ls4s. by Bell Syndicate. Inc

->~s WASHINGTON It has been kept out of the papers, but sparks have been flying between two of President Truman's most potent congressional leaders-vice Presi- dent Barkley and majority leader Scott Lucas of Illinois.
 Things came to a head when the Vice President, called upon to settle a tie, voted for rigid 90 per cent support of parity farm prices which the Administration oppos- ed. Senator Lucas, faced with defeat, lashed out at Barkley pri- vately in language unprintable in family newspaper.
 What does .Barkley know about farming!" storned the Democratic Senate leader. He has a few tobacco farms down in Kentucky, but he knows nothing about the agricultural problems of the great west"
 Lucas, whose nerves are frazzled after the long and thankless job of riding herd on rebellious Sena- tors. further accused Barkley of torpedoing the farm program and embarrassing him personally.
 "Who ever heard of anyone ex- plaining his vote?" scorched Lucas, referring to the fact that the Vice
