Heating engineers agree that a SCOT
clogged heating system can be the
cause of excessive fuel consumption.
Heavy layers of SCOT serve as a
veritable barrier between the heat
from the fuel and the ducts or pipes
which carry the heat. Accumulation
of SCOT in fiues or chimneys inter-
feres with proper draft necessary
for efficient combustion.
Get Rid of SCOT to Save Fuel!
Chimney Sweep, the modern SCOT
destroyer, goes to work on SCOT in
much the same way that soap goes
to work on dirt. Chimney Sweep
loosens or "fiuffs up" the SCOT SO
that it is destroyed in the course of
normal combustion. Regular use of
Chimney Sweep helps to keep heat
ing systems clean and more efficient
cuts down on fuel bills.
Easy to use in Coal. Coke,
Wood or Oil Furnaces!
Two types of Chimney Sweep afe
available = Powder for coal, coke
and wood burning furnaces, stoves
and fireplaces = and Liquid for oil

Milk Strike Settlement
Still Sought as Charge
NLockout Is Rejected
Negotiotors Resume
After Denhom's Ruling
On Union Accusation

Dairy and union representatives
still were cropping for a key to
the milk strike today following a
Government ruling rejecting union
charges of a lockout" in six of
the nine closed plants.
The charges Of Local 246, Milk
Drivers and Dairy Employees Union
(AFL) that their members were
refused work at the dairies were
ordered dismissed by General
Counsel Robert N. Denham of the
National Labor Relations Board.
Received with obvious. satisfac-
ton by the dealers. who have con-
sidered all nine plants struck, the
decision brought a sharp rebuke
from union attorneys and threat
to refile the charges next week
against each of the dairies lndi-
vidually.
Employees Offer Point"
The unions contention that 1t
struck only three plants last Sat-
urday, and has offered to work
Internationally" at the others,
led to the filing of unfair labor
practices charges in the NLRB
Baltimore regional Office.
Mr.. Denham ruled, however.
that since the dairies are bargain
ing as a unit, a strike against any
dairy is a strike against all "and
justifies all the members Of the
employer group in exercising their
full and economic force to coun-
teract the economic force of the
union represented by its strike
call"
Negotiators apparently squelched
any feelings of triumph or dis
may adequately to continue bar

Hotel after Mr.. Denham released
his opinion yesterday evening.

Truman Signs DIP Bill
And vefoes Measure
On Basing Point
Extended and LiberoIized
Low Will Allow Entry of
10000 More Refugees

President Truman today signed
one controversial bill and vetoed
another. Approved was the dis
placed persons measure which will
extend and liberalize the existing
law to admit an additional 1885,
900 refugees. Killed with a 1900
word message was the basing
point bill on uniform delivered
prices of merchandise throughout
the country.
The DIP bill revises q 1948 law,
expiring June 80. that authorized
the entry of 205, 900 DPS. It ex-
tends the program for another
year and increases the number
eligible for admission to 34l, 900.
Upwards of $4,000 displaced
persons already have come to the
United States to make their
homes.
5000 War Orphans Included.
In addition to increasing the
total Of displaced persons who
could become United States resi-
dents under the program. the new
law also provides for the admis-
sion Of:
/. 5000 war orphans from the
free countries of Europe and
Turkey who are adopted by Amer
lean parents.
2. 54,744 persons OF German
ancestry-double the number in
the l948 act-who were driven
from their homes in Czechoslo-
vakia, Poland. Romania and other
Eastern European countries after
the Potsdam agreement of 1945.
3. Up to $4,000 refugees who
entered the United States prior
to April 80. 1949. on temporary
visas. To remain here they must
make application to the Attorney
General and get consent from him
and Congress.

The basing point measure was
designed to eliminate confusion
about antitrust laws so as to
make it clear that manufacturers
have the right to absorb freight
costs in order to sell their prod
