Winds Prove Obstacle To
D0lUnstate SnOlU
Removal
(continued from page one)

CONTINUED from page one)
moval crews in all sections of the
state warned that their efforts
would probably be in vain in the
face of the wind gusts that car
ried snow back to the roadways
and highway surfaces as fast as it
could be removed.
Crews in the Dover area were
concentrating on sanding of inter-
sections at a late hour Wednesday
night.
In spite of the treacherous road
conditions, state police at the Do
yer barracks reported only five
minor accidents during the period
of the snow storm. There were no
personal injuries in any of the ac-
cidents.
State highway department crews
working in Sussex County repoi t.
ed that the snow accumulated in
the most substance in the north
west corner of the county in the
area of Greenwood and Bridgeyille.
Most of the county escaped snow
until about $3.50 Wednesday after
noon when skidding temperatures
turned a persistent rain to the
fiakey, trouble-making substance.
State police at the Bridgeville
barracks reported five bumper
fender" type auto accidents with
out personal injury. Roads were
described as very slippery" and
''in bad shape" BY 9 p. m. Wednes-
day night ali secondary roads and
most main thoroughfares were
completely covered with between
two and three inches of snow.
Highway crews in Sussex Coun-
ty also reported heavy winds play
ing havoc with their efforts to re-
move snow. Twenty of the trouble
shooters were sent to New Castle
County to help with snow clearing
efforts there.
Seaford was hit with about four
inches of snow, but the weather
did not succeed in running the an
nua1 high school football banquet.
About $50 persons attended the af-
fair to honor the young athletes.
David NJ. Nelson, head football
coach at the University of Della
ware, scheduled as the featured
speaker of the evening, could not
attend bcause of the storm.
Snow was reported to have
started falling in the Georgetown
area at about p. m. Wednesday.
At first, the snow was mixed with
rain, but as temperatures dipped,
it became exclusively snow. BY
midnight, Georgetown reported a
four-inch accumulation.
The weather picture at Milford
Wednesday was pretty much the
same as in other sections in the
lower two-thirds of the state. Snow
mixed with rain fell almost all day
and at about 4:30 p. M, the COM
bination disappeared and only snow
fell. Winds also whipped the snow
across roads and into drifts in the
Milford area.
The approximate dividing line,
where the difference was medium
snow to heavy snow, was at Odes-
sa. The area north of this point
started getting snow at about z
p m. Wednesday. The lower poT-
tion of the state began getting its
share Wednesday afternoon.

Grim Holiday
For Labor

On Labor Day eve, 1857. honest
union leaders are facing the most
serious challenges since the two
largest labor organizations merged
into the l5-million-member feder-
alton that is the AFL-CIO
nearly two years ago. For
those challenges, the Transfers
Union and its officials. Several
months ago. the AFL-CIO
Executive Council ousted the dis
credited Dave Beck, outgoing pres
ident of the Transfers. and the
federation's Ethical Practices
Committee charged that the
Transfers were under corrupt in
fiuences. Last week this COM
mittee filed charges against the
man thought most likely to sue
coed Beck as chief Of the 1.5-mil-
lion-man union-James r. Hoffa.
whom Chairman Mcclellan of the
Senate Rackets Committee Bit
terly denounced as a witness with

The AFL-CIO committee did
not specify its charges against Mr..
Hoffa, but said that most of them
grew out Of disclosures by the
Mcclellan group, which accused
him Of questionable actions in
handling union funds. including a

Western proposals. there was little
disposition among the Western
delegations to doubt that the
Russian rejection of the program
was essentially final.
Mr.. Stassen insisted, despite the
impasse. that some significant
progress" had been made at the
protracted London sessions. But
the delegate appeared to be praiS-
ing the working unity at last
achieved among the Western ma
tons represented. rather than
claiming any actual progress
toward arms limitation.
AS the week ended, the Soviet
strategy at the London conference
looked more and more like a pow
erful and so-far successful end
run to get the whole problem be-
fore the upcoming session of the
United Nations. In doing this,
Moscow appears to assume. the
question of an outright ban on
continued testing of nuclear weap-
ons. with the highly emotional
question Of the damage being done
to mankind by the effects Of
radioactive fallout. would put the
West on an indefensible spot.
The Soviet strategic gains
seemed to be significant enough
on Thursday to send Mr.. Stassen
back to Washington a day ahead

here Friday for conferences with
Secretary Dulles and Mr.. Eisen-
hover. he chung tenaciously to his

again that he considered the Zorin
stand to be only tough bargain

on his analysis. and there was
little disposition to doubt that MIR.

increased gravity Of the situation
than by the chief delegates de-

This is not enough. administra-
ton leaders say. to get started on
a sound program for building the

Mr.. Passman's committee goes
back to the record.
Here is Mr.. Passman's comment:
Two years ago, the President
asked for an Asian Development
fund of 5000 million. Authorize
ton legislation passed in both
Houses. But the House appropri-
ated only 500 million. The Senate
went to $50 million. In confer
ence. the 500 million figure pre-
vailed.
THAT was two years ago. There
was no limitation on when the
money could be used. The admin
istration charged that we had
ruined the program.

Asian Flu:
H0fEnough

There was good news for mil
lions of unidentified Americans
last week. DR.. Leroy E. Burney,
United States Surgeon General.
announced Wednesday that the
manufacturers Of the anti-Asian
flu vaccine had increased their
estimates Of the number Of doses
which would be available by jan
uary from so million to between
80 and IS million.
But despite this tremendous eff
fort from a standing start by the
six drug companies involved. the
fact remains that at least half
the population will not get the
vaccine protection by the time
the expected epidemic sweeps the
country late this fall or early
winter.
Even If IS million doses are dis
tributed. this does not mean that
IS million Americans will be i'm
munized. For one thing. there is
a question whether one shot is
sufficient. The military has de-
cided its personnel SHOULD have
two each and has increased its
requirement to 7 million doses.
Then there is the matter of the
general effectiveness Of the vac
cine. The best guess is that the
shots will take" in not more
than Z out of 10 persons inoc-
ulated.
Up to this week. some 2.677.475
doses of the vaccine had been
distributed. While there is no
firm agreement on ALLEGATIONS. The
manufacturers are expected to
accept DR.. Burney's suggestion
that distribution be based on a
States population.
There will be no Federal prior
tiles set. but it has been agreed
by DR.. Burney and the State and
Territorial health officers that
individuals IN critical community
service jobs. like doctors. police
men and telephone operators. and
persons with certain ailments and
diseases, should be inoculated
first.
DR.. Daniel L. Finucane. District
Director Of Public Health, said
$3.50 persons in key jobs here
would ne inoculated. He pre-
dicted that there would be l7O.-
900 cases Of the flu in the Dis
trict If the epidemic hits.

Wisconsin,:

Their clouded crystal balls
pushed aside. the political experts
still were trying to explain as
last week ended the smashing
upset victory Tuesday of Demo-
crat William E. Proxmire in the
Wisconsin race for the Senate
seat Of the late Republican Joseph
r. Mccarthy. whose unexpired
term has Is months to run.
There was no lack of theories
as to why Wisconsin took a l80-
degree turn from the ultra-con-
sentative Mccarthy to the liberal
Proxmire. the first Democrat to
be elected Senator in his State in
Is years. The explanation that
seemed to make most sense was
two-pronged:
Intra-party strife kept thou
sands Of conservative Republicans
at home in a slap at former Gov.
Walter j. Kohler. an outspoken
Eisenhower moderate, and Mr..
Proxmire's extremely vigorous
campaign got out the vote-both
the Democratic and the usual off,
year protest balloting. tSee article

main provisions:
Q Creates a Federal commits

o Establishes a special civil

BY EARL II. VOSS

Seventy of the worlds 81 ma
tons had a financial stake in the
meeting Of IL Congressman and
six Senators in a Senate ONCE
Building conference room last
Wednesday morning.
These men were deciding how
much foreign aid money would
be appropriated at this session Of
Congress. They had heard the
Presidents entreaties and decided
he had asked far too much.
1t was afternoon before they
came to an agreement. There
were some heated words before a
decision was reached.
What they did was the final
act Of the 1857 congressional
drama of foreign aid-the final
House-Senate conference on mu-
tual security appropriations.
The meeting produced three re-
suits:
The most crushing defeat Of
President Eisenhower's White
House career. an impressive victory
for the bipartisan businessman
wing" on Capitol Hill that winces
at big government spending, and
warning to the beneficiary ma
tons that austerity is once more
rearing its head in the United
States Government. despite pre-
sidential efforts to discourage the
trend.
Unimpressed Lawmakers
The decision Of the II, quickly
approved by the Senate and House.
was to appropriate less money for
foreign aid than has been pro-
vided since the economy minded
Eisenhower administration first
year. Their final figure was SIG
billion less than President Eisen-
hover first asked, 81 billion less
than his final asking price.
1t was a relatively unknown
Democratic Representative from
Louisiana-Otto E. Passman--
who set the final low floor on mu-
tual security spending. His House

est from employers with whom the
Transfers have contracts, and of
close associations with hoodlums.
The Transfers executive board,
meeting in Los Angeles last week.
decided to reply to the Ethical
Practices Committee corrupt in
fluences charge when that group
meets here this Thursday and
Friday.
The federation's executive
council is scheduled to draw up its
final cleanup order against the
Transfers on September rs. The
Transfers will consider this ac-
ton at their presidential conven-
ton in Miami Beach the following
week. The course taken by the
Transfers presumably will go a
long way in determining whether
the AFL-CIO expels the biggest
union Of them all. when it holds
its convention in Atlantic City on
December ).
The sordid story on the labor
front. meanwhile, continued to
unfold in other directions. Beck
was indicted again. this time for
alleged evasion of $184,000 in
back Federal income taxes. His
son and four other associates were
indicted on charges Of aiding him
in concealing his income.
And the Mcclellan Committee
began sitting charges involving
two other unions - the United
Textile Workers and the United
Steel Workers. Two officials of
the UTW have been accused Of
misusing $127, 900 in union funds
and a union member has alleged
that there was fraud in the last
steel workers presidential cleo
ton.

PAssMAN LEADS THE WAY

overstated its needs by some SIS
billion.
That's bad business, he argues.
and he's trying to guarantee that
the gap will be less in the future
The above example is no spe-
cial case. Congressman Passman
can cite others from memory
In 1856" he asserts. 1.-The Con-
gress appropriated $685. million
less and in 1856. $l.3 billion less
than the Budget Bureau asked.
That adds up to a reduction of
$40 billion in two years.
Each year they claimed that
the committee had ruined the pro-
gram. Notwithstanding that state
ment. when they came before the
committee for funds for Fiscal
Year 1858. they had on hand un-
obligated funds in the amount Of
1857 million"
Matter Of Interpretation
The answer, ICA officials have
attempted to explain. lies In the
widely varying interpretations of
'unobligated funds"
ICA considers itself committed,
the administration says. when it
sends a letter to an official Of a
foreign government saying 1t
would like to finance a bridge. or a
road. or a dam. The Congressman
don't consider an obligation to
have been made until a contract
has been signed. The House APP
preparations Committee is more
pragmatic. It considers funds to
be unobligated when they are re-
turned to the Treasury.
Congressman Passman makes a
distinction between "unobligated'
funds. those that are turned back
to the Treasury, and reserved
funds which he says covers the
semicommitment which ICA is
talking of. His statistics include
only unobligated money.
The Econ mi Development
Fund is another of the examples.
