&c Indicted
Again On Charge
OF 'Rigged Bids

General Electric Co., which has
cited Competition" in the industry
as one reason why its employees
shouldn't expect any great "gen-
erosity" in Forthcoming contract
negotiations, has been indicted
for the 18th time this year on
charges Of violating antitrust laws.
A federal grand jury in Phila-
delphia charged that GE, Westing-
house and Allis- Chalmers submit
ted "coilusive, rugged bids" on
sales Of turbine-generator units
used to produce electricity by use
Of steam. The rugged bids, the
grand jury charged, involved sales
to the Tennessee Valley Authority,
to private electric utility compa-
MES and to state and local govern
ments.
Westinghouse, with GE one Of
the giants in the electrical equip
ment industry, has also been in
dicted II times since mid-Feb-
ruary. This was the ninth indict-
ment of Allis- Chalmers. In all, the
Justice Dept. has obtained indict-
mentA of 81 companies accused OF
collusive bidding and price fixing
Of Is separate products, involving
annual sales of $1.675 billion.
In one of the counts of the in
dictment, it was alleged that the
supposedly competing firms met in
September, 1857, to discuss" in
vitations for bids issued by the
Tennessee Valley Authority for a
100000 kilowatt generator.
At the meeting, the grand jury
indictment charged it was agreed
that General Electric should get
the bid. Thereafter, General Elec-
trio Co. bid approximately $16.225
million to Tennessee Valley Au-
thority," the indictment said.
The indictment also alleged that
representatives of GE, Westing-
house and Allis-Chalmers met in
the fall Of 1866 to decide which
companies should have position"
on nuclear-powered turbine gen.
orators to be sold to purchasers in
Chicago, New York and Detroit.

Dear Sirs:
On Sept. 3Oth, our daughter,
Linda, was struck by an auto
in front of our home and spent
a month in Huron Road Hospi-
tai. She is home now and
would like very much to thank
all the neighbors who have been
so nice to us.
Many of these people sent
gifts and cards but didn't sign
their names. The only way
can think of to thank them all
is to put a note of thanks" in
the paper.
Would you please put the en-
closed note in your next issue :?
l would appreciate it very
much.
Thank you,
Mrs. w. Schuller.

We want to extend a very

Dear Sir:
At the risk of seeming to
beat a very tired horse may
we refer to the election just
past? This is the reason. Like
most political parties the
League began to plan next
years campaign as soon as the
1860 returns were in.
This year the League of Wo-
men Voters of East Cleveland
mailed out it's Voters Infor-
nation Bulletin in the hope of
reaching the total community.
Disturbing reports have come
to US from longtime voters in
East Cleveland who did not
receive this information which
they had found so helpful in
the past.
Before the League tangles
with Uncle Sans Post Office
about non-delivery of mail, it
seems wise to check the COM
munity more wi id ely. We
should like to hear from any
registered voter whose house
hold did not receive at least
one copy Of a tabloid size news
paper entitled Voters Informa-
tion Service published by the
League of Women Voters of
Cuyahoga County. We accept
the fact that we probably
missed recent registrants and
first-time voters. Citizens who

Developing New Ways
To Track Nose Cones

TRYING to retrieve rocket nose cones
Il with their valuable payloads of
space data can be as exasperating as
looking for a needle in a haystack To
narrow the search, a new branch of
scientific sleuthing is slowly being per
fected. Although rockets are usually
aimed over specific trajectories and
nose cones detached at scheduled mo-
ments, there's still no telling where the
elected capsule will plunge Since visual
sighting alone won't do, rocket engineers
have had to devise systems by which the
nose cone broadcaSts its own position
as soon as it lands
Basic in this type Of operation is
the self-starting radio station that goes
into operation as soon as the capsule
touches down. Since most rocket shots
are aimed over watery expanses, the cap
sules are expressly designed to stay
afloat indefinitely. AS soon as it hits
the water, the capsule performs like
a precisely trained robot, tipping a radio
antenna and beginning to flash light
signal as well as a radio beam. 1t also

the area safe for rescuers. Only problem
then is for the retrievers to pick up the
radio signal, zero in on the beam, and
locate the capsule by its light and dye.

Even though the radio signals could be
