Snow Storm Swarnps
Phone Circuits

The tremendous amount of snow
which fell in Ohio ten days ago
dislocated more than motor trans
portation. Officials of the North
ern Ohio Telephone Company re-
port that for four days all tele-
phone circuits and equipment was
completely swamped with the
greatest volume of traffic since
We Day in 1945.
The number of both local and
long distance calls were almost
double the normal volume of traf-
fic. With people confined to their
homes, they made an unusually
large number of calls, many of
them unnecessary. Long distance
calls by people who were maroon
ed or could not keep their ap-
pointments established a new all
time record. Toll circuits were
jammed over a wide area and
traffic was handled on a delayed
basis of two to three hours in some
cases.

Molding Clay Is
Helpful To Child

One small child plus small
piece of clay equal fun and valu-
able play experiences.
Younger children will enjoy
rolling, patting or breaking clay
into small pieces. Older ones
may make balls, bowls, baskets or
animals. This gives youngsters a
chance to express their ideas and
feelings, and to be creative.

Alekneggik School Burned to Ground
(Juneau Empire)

The main building of the Bris- tol Bay Mission School at Alekna- gik, burned to the ground on Sun day, October 29, John Griffin, treasurer said today. This school is operated by the Alaska Mission of Seventh Day Adventists for na- tive students from all areas of Alaska. In addition to those from the Bay area, several are from St. Lawrence Island and Nome.
 Although complete information has not been received. it is under stood that the new dormitory built by Robert Wagner, was un- damaged. A letter from Mrs. Wag- ner revealed that they lost all of their personal effects. The great loss will be to the students who make this place their home.
 A new shipment of musical in StrumentS nad Just been recelVed by MT. McGhee, principal of the school. McGhee conducted a 35- piece band at the school last year. In addition to regular instruction each student was given lessons on the musical instruments of his choice. This program is going to be seriously hampered by this fire loss.
 The three story main building contained living quarters for some of the students and faculty, class rooms, dining room and kitchen. A 10000 watt light plant was To- cated in a corner of the basement. The building was partially cover ed by insurance.

Telephone Strike Slowly Paralyzes Communications
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page OneD phone Company, involved in a separate wage dispute with the company.
 Within five minutes after the walkout, the strikers stationed picket lines around exchanges from coast to coast-a maneuver designed to keep nearly 100000 fellow union members, including operators, away from their jobs.
 Following instructions fir o m their union, most of the non-strik- ing employees refused to pass through the lines.
 The strike struck first at the key American Telephone and Telegraph building in New York City. A handful of employees braved the picket lines there but others, including a union-eStim- ated 2,700 long distance operators refused to pass through. The building handles an average of 73,OOO long distance calls daily. A Western Electric spokesman said there were no reports of impaired service.
 Tn Little Rock, Ark, Southwest ern Bell obtained an injunction which forced removal of pickets from the Exchange Building there. They also were withdrawn in Memphis for an unexplained req son.
 Service in manually-operated exchanges was slowed in many areas. In New Jorsey most manu- ally-operated calls were being re- stricted to emergency only.
 As the walkout reached the west coast, Seattle's 200 striking equipment workers also began picketing. The city has 1000 other CWA members who had been in structed to respect teh picket lines.

Minority Groups To Attack FOrei gn Policy Handling

WASHINGTON, Republi- gain in the Congressional cleo tions appeared to herald a slam bang new attack on the Truman administrations handling of for eign policy.
 The prospect raised the ques- ton of whether President Truman will move to head off the expected volley of COP criticism by trying to restore bipartisan cooperation which lately has been whitening.
 However, the Republican price to any real harmony seemed al- most certain to be the firing of Secretary of State Acheson, and MT. Truman so far has refused to yield on that. Acheson said We'd nesday he has no intention of quitting.
 The outcome of Tuesdays vot- ing, where foreign policy was one of, the main issues, put the Repub- licanS in a position to be exceed ingly troublesome so far as the Truman program is concerned in the 82nd Congress, which con- venes Jan. 3.
 The Democrats retained numer- ical control of both branches of Congress, but the Republicans made big in-roads in the off-year balloting.
 In the Senate, the Democrats squeaked by with 49 seats to AT for the COP. That is a net gain of five members for the Republi- cans, who toppled key administra- ton leaders out of the Senate in chalking up their victories.
 In the House, where one con- test still was undecided, the Re publicans hiked their count to 199 members in contrast to the 169 they have in the present Con- gress.
 The new Democratic total in the House stood at 234 as against 259 currently.
 In the House at present there is one American-Laborite, who was defeated Tuesday. The new group there will be one Independent, who heretofore has been identi- fled politically as a Democrat. Six vacancies also were filled in the election.
