Kills Family,
Himself By Gas

TORONTO TIA Russian born
refugee from Yugoslavia piped gas
into his rooming house bedroom
today, carefully sealed the doors
and windows and snuffed out his
own life and those Of his four chill
dren.
Police identified the dead as Ser
giusz Aksiuk. 50. who fled Russia
in 1918 and had lived in Yugoslavia
until he brought his family here
two months ago; his three sons,
aged to IS years, and Z seven
year-old daughter.
The bodies were found by Ak
siuk's wife, Nina, when she re-
turned from work shortly after
midnight. Investigators could give
no immediate explanation for the
mans actions. which they termed
case of murder and suicide.

New Jersey Heads Into Its
Most Hectic And Confused
Primary Election In Years

In Republican ranks. the story
is different.
Gen. Eisenhower, Sen. Taft and
Harold &. Stassen are entered in
the presidential poll which is not
binding. Stassen is not considered
. serious contender. Taft avowed-
y is not I candidate.
Taft tried to withdraw from the
race after Gov. Alfred E. Driscoll
came out for Eisenhower hut the
Ohio Senator made his decision
too late to remove his name from
the ballet.
Taft closed his headquarters,
cancelled q speaking tour and said
as far as he was concerned he was
out Of the New Jersey contest. He
said Driscoll's endorsement of Els
enhower made fair primary i'm
possible.
The Eisenhower forces coun-
tered that Taft's action was q
sham. They said no matter what
vote he receives, he can claim 4
moral victory" Taft followers
said this wasn't so. Some predicted
he win get only . fraction Of the
vote.
An Associated Press poll of the
states newspapers forecast Eisen-
lower viii win the election but
Taft viii get a good vote.

Peace Prospects Improve In
Striking Telephone Industry

CLEVELAND IN - Negotiators,
arguing towards dawn over minor
points announced they were on the
verge today Of signing an agree
ment ending 1 week-long strike at
the Ohio Bell Telephone Co.
Both company representatives
and spokcsmen for the Clio Com
munications Workers Of America
said the end was near. The con-
tract--consisting Of 100 typewriter
pages--was said by the company
to follow closely the Michigan Bell
settlement Of last Friday.
Michigan. first Of the struck
Bell systems to settle. agreed to
weekly wage raises of about 81 to
81. Ohio Bell offered 81 to S..
An Ohio Bell settlement still
would leave strikes by some 5000
at Bell telephone firms in North
California, New Jersey, and 5000
at the Western Electric Co. in -
states.
Western Electric, which makes
telephones for the Bell system, is
negotiating its strike in New York
City. There. too, negotiators were
optimistic, but by no means as
confident a. at Ohio Bell.
For the first time since Friday,
full scale sessions were scheduled
today by federal mediators. Ernest
Weaver, general director of the
CWA's installation division, said
after Sundays meeting the con-
ferees were mot as far apart"
But one union official added that
there was "stilI long way to
Co." Then he grinned, nodded at
the five mediators and said: They
seem satisfied. |"
