 Delta home

BIG DELTA (E) A 27 year old housewife from Maine had a chance to become Queen of the Wild Frontier" here last week. But she has turned the opportunity down flat.
 Mrs. Shirley King, newly married wife of serviceman at Fort Greedy, abandoned her house permanently when a herd of buffalo attempted to join her in the front room.
 It all came aboot when her husband, Sgt. William A. King, 27, of Lisbon Falls, Maine, had duty on the base at night.
 Mrs. King, who also comes from Lisbon Falls, was home alone.
 She had scattered salt on the front porch to melt ice there. A herd of buffalo emerged from nearby woods and began lick ing the salt.
 Mrs. King heard a noise at the door. She peeked out the window and what she saw made her black hair stand on end. There was a herd of about 25 bison at the porch, and the an inals. attempting to follow the salt trail into the house, were pushing against the door with all their strength
 Although she was clad only in her husbands nightshirtt. Mrs. King decided to abandon ship"
 | She grabbed a kitchen chair, smashed out a picture window, leaped out of the house and fled across the snow, barefoot ed in 10 degrees below zero weather.
 When she arrived at the near est shelter, tavern, the bar ternder dbligingly provided emergency clothes.
 'SShe was so excited all she could do was stammer Bluff . Buff Buff WI" barten der Dick Pennington said. When her husand came home Mrs. King flatly refused to go back to her house, so the cou- ple spent the night in the back room of the tavern.
 She wouldn't go back the next day either, So her husband aupealed to base authorities.
 Today, the couple have beer comfortably settled in quarters on Fort Greedy where Mrs King vows she is going to stay

Hos both duty and responsibility 10 speak out

NEW YORK (P) Secretary of labor Mitchell said today organized labor has both a duty and responsibility to speak out with a loud and clear" voice in politics.
 Mi.chell's remarks prepared for the convention of the mer- ged AFL-CIO indicated, how ever, he expects labor support to be given to Republican par ty policies rather than to those of Democrats.
 His speech, like one deliver ed by President Eisenhower yesterday to convention dele gates via a long-distance hook up from Eisenhower's Gettys- burg headquarters, said labor unions have a right to deal in political issues.
 Eisenhower said that in such expression the rights of min critics in unions having "dif fering social, economic and po litical views must be scrupu- lously protected and their views accurately reflected"
 The president and his labor cabinet officer appeared to be answering in part at least, the expressed fears of some Re publicans unions are taking too active political role. The speeches also signaled an ad- ,ministration effort to vie ac- lively with the Democrats for the labor vote in the 1856 cam paign.
 Gov. Averell Hartman of New York, potential candi- date for the Democratic pres idential nomination next year. said in another speech at the convention today that i've need more, not less participa- ton by working men and wo- men in American political af- fairs"
 Hartman saw "a glorious opportunity" ito increase na- tional production Iby 50 per cent in the next decade and thereby improve living condi- tions. But Ito get this expan- sion, we must have wise and progressive policies" he said
 Tt is up to labor to make it's voice heard to be sure we have those policies Hartman

Council Seeks
to Move
Quonset Hut

When a Quonset hut was CIV
en- to the Village fom Char
don Rubber Co., the village
opened bids to have the hut
dismantled and moved next to
the disposal plant opposite of
irant street off North Hamb-
den for the storage of village
equipment, word was received
from council today.
No written bids have been
received on the recent project
-excet a verbal bid to the vii
lage clerk from Ed Loveland
# Geneva, in the amount of
So 900 contract price of time
md mat rial to dismantle, mo-
We and then erect the building.
The village council agreed to
see if the Street department
men wished to take the build
ing down on their own time
and if they do, the work will
be gotten to as quickly as pos
sible. This win be done upder
the direction of the Building
Committee and the erection at
the new site will be taken
care of at a later date.
Also on the evenings list of
business was the results OBJ
tanned when a committee met
and recommended that the So
licitor be paid SITS for each
bond issue handled by him. This
sum would be added to his pre-
sent yearly salary. Council
agreed on Whitman Thrasher's
report and the motion carried.
Other business attended to
was that the lines on the vii
lage streets should be painted
this summer and that the work
be contracted. Robert Prince
discussed the expense involved
due to the length of the legal
notices being run this year in
the newspapers. 1t was discus
Sed to see about posting the
legals instead of advertising
them in papers and the posting
place would be within village
limits.
A Fire Prevention Code was
given consideration and council
decided the Solicitor be instruct
ed to draw up one for the viii
lage. This Code would improve
fire Insurance rating for t h
village according to Fire Chief,
John Maynard.
Complaints were heard from
Fred Hillen regarding he
parking of neighbor's vehicle
on Mr.. Hillen's tree lawn on
South Hambden street. Charles
Hall ordered the vehicle moved.
Mrs. william Loomis a ! SO
complained to council abou the
downspout water from June
Stones property draining on
hers. The council has no au-
thority in such matters and
therefore informed Mrs. Loomis
of such.
Mr.. Hall discussed financial
status of the village as to
bonding. The fact that tn e
village is 60 percent responsible
for the school indebtedness will
have a bearing upon the rate
of interest the Village gets on
it's own bond issues.
Acting Mayor, Vain Parsons
spoke of the extension of wa
ter lines beyond the village IL
mits. He felt that water was
one of the motives for addition
and that due consideration
should be given this matter be-
fore anymore extensions are al
lowed.

 Strike by 6O,OOO Copper Workers
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PREssl

The nations steel mills made ready Saturday for an early re- sumption of operations but hopes faded for quick settlement of a strike against three of the nations largest copper producers.
 The shortest steel strike in the industry's history ended Friday, when US. Steel signed a contract with the CIO United Steelworkers, ending a 12-hour walkout. Within hours, all of the industry's Big Six" producers had signed up.
 The union got slightly more than IS cents an hour wage boost. Before the raise the workers had averaged $2.33 an hour.
 US. Steel announced after the settlement that it is boosting it's prices about $7.50 a ton and other producers are expected to follow suit.
 In Denver, a spokesman for the International Union of Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers expressed doubt that differences which led to a strike against three of the na- tion's major copper producers could be ironed out before late this week.
 He said bargaining sessions had been recessed at Butte, Mont; att Miami, Ariz., and at Salt Lake City. He said negotiators for both
