FIGHT LOOMS
 ON LIFTING
 BAN FOR AID

WASHINGTON, June l6 --IR- A 90-day suspension of a congress sional ban on economic aid to coun- tries trading behind the Iron Cur tain was likely to lead to another fight between the White House and Congress.
 The National Security Council (NSC), under President Truman, advised Congress yesterday of the interim" suspension to allow time for further study of trading situa- tions in the countries receiving U s. aid.
 The ban prohibits with one loophole sending any aid, econo- mic or financial, to any country shipping war-useful goods to Russia or it's Satellites.
 The loophole provides for excep- tions whenever the Security Coun- cil tells Congress that operation of the ban would hurt the security interest of the U s.
 President Truman called the ban seriously defective" on June 2 when he signed the appropriation bill to which it was attached.
 But Republican leaders, calling the administrators objections State Department jargon," eau toned against any general suspen' sion of the aid ban. Senators investigating the firint of Gen. Douglas MacArthur ane U. s. policy in the Far East wer' not in session today.
 Tine joint committees next meet ing is scheduled for Monday, whel vote is planned on how man. more witnesses will be summoned Nine have been heard so far, start | ing with Macarthur and ending yes 1 terday with former Secretary of De fense Louis Johnson. f

 North, Central Fronts

TOKYO, June 16 = IR Rear guard Reds and probing Allied pa trols clashed head-on today in scat tered battles across the jagged mountains of the East and Central fronts in Korea.
 The Communists fought deSper- ately to save their escape routes to the north as Allied armored forces thrust toward the new Red fortress city of Kumscng.
 Chinese and North Korean main forces continued to fall back along the front ahead of heavy Allied ar tillery fire.
 The U. s. 9th Army commander warned that another Red offensive is expected.

RADI0kEN HOLD OUT,
 WAGES UP
Negotiations Reported Go. ing On; Korean MiIi-
 farY Cdrgoes Loaded

SAN FRANCISCO. June Is --tR,-- A Pacific Coast shipping strike - affecting all but essential military cargoes -- began early today after the breakdown of negotiations be- tween the CIO American Radio As- sociation and the Pacific Maritime Association.
 Negotiations. touch and go all evening, were extended more than an hour past the midnight strike deadline at the personal request of Federal Conciliator Omar Hosking. but failed to reach settlement.
 Said Philip O'Rourke. vice presi- dent of the Radio Operators union:
 They gave us an offer. We count cred. They refused to contact their board of directors with our counter offer We were willing to negotiate Ill night but now the strike is on"
 Although only some 300 radio op- orators arc represented by the un- ion, they wield critical weight in ship operations. Under maritime law, no ship can sail without them.
 Tickets To He Placed
 O'Rouike said pickets will be placed immediately at all ships tied ID on West Coast ports. but that operators would continue to work. on ships carrying supplies to Korea.
 Basis of the dispute is the radio opeEatofs demand for $7Q. q month 6vtf tliclf new basic wage of $325 month. They also are seeking bet terment of working conditions and contend radiomen ashore get high sr pay and work fewer hours.
 On East, Gulf Ports
 The trouble extended to east coast and gulf ports.
 The seamen in the Atlantic and gulf coast ports did not talk about "a strike" but shippers wondered if any would sail without contract.
 Joseph Curran. president of the CIO National Maritime union. said:
 T expect our men will not sail ships. because they have no contract. I know I wouldn't" The contract expired at midnight last night.
 Curran and other union officials refused to use the words strike" 4tie-up" or "stoppage.'
 Negotiations
 Despite the radio operators strike. negotiations seemed to be proceed ing towards settlements in other west coast maritime union con- tracts.
 Hoskins last night announced that the Independent Marine Firemen's union had agreed to 15-day ex- tension of their contract and the CIO Marine Engineers had agreed to a 30-day extension of theirs. The two unions scheduled talks with PIMA negotiators for today
 L0ngsh0rcmen Working
 And members of the Independent International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's union met here last night and approved 20-cent hour ly wage- pension package pay in crease offered by the PIMA. Five cents will be added to wages, with IS cents applied to the union pen sion fund.
 An ILWU spokesman said long shoremen will continue work on a day-to-day basis until the contract is formally ratified.

Fiiremen To
Aid Citizens
In Cleanup

Services of the Fire Department
were offered today by Fire Chief
Fred A. Steffens to help East
Cleveland residents rid their homes
and business places of fire hazards
during the Spring Cleanup drive
now in progress.
Preventing fires is just as
much a part of the Fire Depart
ment's job as putting them out"
said the Chief. "But to carry on a
really effective program of fire
prevention, we must have the CO.
operation of every householder
and businessman"
If invited to do so, the fire chief
added, the department would make
an inspection of any home, store,
Or industrial plant for fire hazards
and would recommend fire safety
measures where necessary. The
Chief said this was one way in
which the public could cooperate.
Chief Steffens quoted that ma
tional fire losses totaled about
$70O,000,000 last year, nearing the
all-time high of $711,114,00O in
1948.
"The sad part of the story is
that nine of every ten fires could
be prevented" Chief Steffens CON-
mented, "if we all cleaned up the
common hazards around our homes
and places Sf business

Three Cars Lose
Parts To Thieves

Three automobiles lost parts to
thieves and the barking of a dog
frightened away the men who
were about to help themselves to
hub caps on a fourth car here this
past week.
James Horowitz, 1147 East 125th
st. reports a complete spare wheel
and an exhaust reflector missing
from his car.
His dog sounded the alarm that
frightened the theft about to re-
move a hub cap from his car, Lon
Orland reported to police. Orland
was asleep in a first floor bed
room at his home, 1885 lakewood
rd. when the barking of the dog
aroused him just in time to see the
man flee to a nearby parked car.
The car failed to start at once and
two passengers in it and. the third
man pushed it off to a start.
A car parked at the East End
Nash Used Car Lot was well
stripped the night of April 9th,
Cal Fulgham reports. Missing are
a light switch, heater switch, cleo
tric motor gear shift switch, a
gear shift knob, starter switch,
cigarette lighter, and a section of
the dash panel, and four hub caps.
Placing concrete blocks under the
front end of the two other cars,

wheels the same night. The cars

City Health | Department Repeats
Contagion Alert To All Parents

consult their family physician al
once. So-called children's diseases
need not be serious, if complica-
tions are avoided, it is reminded.
Prospect School leads in the
measles count with 18 of the
total 27. Chambers, Rozelle and
Shaw take up the balance, with
but one at Shaw High School.
Measles, explains Miss Smith, is
an infectious disease being spread
by discharges of the nose and the
mouth. The disease usually devel-
ops ten to IA days after exposure
and in some instances as long as
II days. Early symptoms are fever,
cough, watery eyes, runny nose,
general fatigue. The rash, red, ir-
regular and bumpy, appears three
or four days after the symptoms.
If a parent knows his child has
been exposed to measles he should
consult the family physician.
Measles are more prevalent in
two-three years cycles and this is
measles year, states Miss Smith.
With each recurring round of the
disease, another round can be anti
cipated within the incubation
period. There were 20 cases in East
Cleveland last year and 42S cases
in the last peak" year of 1949.
So far the Rozelle School dis
trict has the most number of
chicken pox cases, II. Kirk Jr.
High School and st. Philomena
enrollments show the next high
est number.
About two weeks pass between
contact and chicken pox. Symptoms
may be fever followed within IA
to SO hours with eruption. Water
blisters appear.
The mumps cases are not con-
fined to any one district, but come
from a general scattering through
out the city. Symptoms of mumps
are fever and pain and swelling
of the gland just below and in
front of the ear. 1t may affect one
or both sides of the haid.
1t is advisable to keep small
children and infants away from
crowds and to watch that children
do not contact other children hav-
ing measles, mumps, chickenpox or
any other disease.
Two cases of scarlet fever are
also reported.

That Mayfair Land Ownership
Question Pops Up Once More

That Mayfair School yard ''No
Trespassing" plot is again on the
school boards agenda. 1t has been
there off and on since October,
1925 sbut more frequently since
March, 1948.
The plot, a 20 3S feet square
parcel, is in the center of May
fair playground. 1t is Of no use to
its owner, Mrs. Helen Phillip,
1858 Randall rd. She can't get to
it without trespassing on school
property. Children can't play on
the school ground without tres
passing on Mrs. Phillips pro-
perty.
Mrs. Phillip has tried to sell the
plot to the school board for $500
ever since she acquired it. Now her
price is 500. The board has held
out for $40, the price paid for it
at tax sale, March, 194S by Marcel
Fielder who sold it to Mrs. Phil
lipp.
At that time the board author
lied its clerk to bid $40 for the
plot, not anticipating that anyone
would, buy land minus egress or
ingress.
Nothing more was heard about
the plot until October 29y 1948
when the present owner offered it
to the school board for $500. They
said they would take it off her
hands for $40, tax free and title
clear.
To this Mrs. Phillip replied she
was unaware of the mentioned
auditor sale, that she had acquired
the property through a regular
business deal, and it was for sale
at $500. She also asked the board to

prises East Cleveland and Euclid.
He will have time, in his job as a
key member Of the Community Re-
lations staff of the Advertising
Division at Nela Park, to continue
IN the Zone Director post.
"Mr. Dover's work has been out
standing" Carran said. "He has
done the groundwork that will give
our city a top-notch Civil Defense
organization; registration of vol
unteers has been completed, and
classes are underway, so the de-
tense program has now passed to
the training stage. l am sure Mr..
Apthorp will carry on just as effec-
lively"
