Contest Develops For Delegate Post Two Candidates Cn Republican Ticket The first content for a post as delegate to the Republican state convention developed today when Roland J. Miller filed his declaration of candidacy to represent district five. Frank Kitson. Adams county home superintendent, filed his declaration of candidacy for the same post last week. Under recent apportionments set by the Adams county board" of election commissioners the following precincts are included in district five: North and South Washington. North Kirkland and North St. Mary's. Blank Supply Exhausted You couldn't have filed today as I a candidate for office if you wanted to. There were no declaration! of candidacy blanfe in the officesl oj the county clerk. ‘The blanks have beer on order for some time, from a Latayette printing company holding a county contract. On Friday Clerk Jaberg telephoned the company and elicited a promise to have the blanks here within a few hours — but at a late hour today they had not arrived. Meanwhile clerk Jaberg was forced to ask would-be candidates to return later. Those who filed before the “deadline” caused by the exhausted supply of blanks included Mr. Miller, who filed as delegate and precinct committeeman of his party from North St. Mat'y’s and Frank W. Spade, as Republican cammitteeman in North Kirkland. o_l 0 _1 SEWER (Continued from Page 1) willingness to proceed with such programs under today's prices, Oiders of this type have been is- 1 sued to even state and federal in-1 stitutiond in some cases, according I to Indianapolis newspaper sources. Local city leaders have evidenced at various time« 3 their unwillingness to proceed with the program here under present prices and place the heavy cost upon local citizens. 0 DITCH CONTRACT (Continued from Pace 11 day afternoon at 2 o’clock on the John Berry ditch in Kirkland township. Three cleaning and drag-line machines are now in operation in the county. Mr. Bowers stated. The Yost company has equipment in Hartford township and the Baker & Schultz firm in Preble township.

The drag-line, owned by the county, is operating in Washington township and the bull-dozer, also owned by the county, is at work at various sites in cleaning and grubbing work. Soft ground has prevented levelling of spoil banks, the surveyor stated. 0 MEAT PACKERS (Continued from Page 1) gamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen, settled for a nine-c6nt increase last month. The nackers offered the same figure to the CIO union, but Wilson & Co., another of the big packers, withdrew the offer. There still was hope that a strike could be averted by referAwful Rheumatic Pain Left Man’s Body In 8 Hours “For years I had rheumatic pains in the muscles of my shoulders, legs and ankles, which finally got so stiff, sore and painful that when I walked I would flinch with agony. 1 got TRU-AID and started taking it, and the rheumatic pains began leaving my body in eight hours. Now the pains are gone from my muscles entirely. I feel like some othei person, and I praise TRU-AID to the sky.” This is a genuine testimonial from a man living right here in this vicinity. TRU-AID is the new liquid formula containing three valuable medical ingredients.

I ring the dispute to President Truman under emergency provisions of the Taft-Hartley law. If such action is initiated by the U S. conciliation service, Mr. Truman could order the attorney general to seek a court order delaying the walkout for Sff days while a fact-finding board investigates the issues. Meat industry spokesmen said a strike would be felt in a shortage of meat at retail butcher shops within two weeks. They said, however, that housewives would find as much or more meat available as there was during the war. The shipment of cattle, hogs and sheep to. the major markets already had been cut to a trickle. Buyers warned farmers to keep their animals at home because purchases by the big packers will be sharply reduced in the event of a strike. As the deadline neared, U. S. conciliators scheduled a last-ditch conference with the union and the packers for today. However, James Spillane, regional director of the conciliation service, said similar conferences during the last four days had accomplished little.
