Deferments Musi Be Made Individually Blanket Deferments Are Not Provided Indianapolis, Jan. 14—Emphasizing that the selective service act of 1948 provides no blanket deferment for agricultural workers, Lt. Col. F. Lyle Summers, selective service director for Indiana, declared today that local boards are required both by law and by regulation to consider each farm worker's case individually, just as other registrants' cases are considered Col. Summers said that regulations issued by the president provide for a deterred classification i for farm workers only when the following conditions are met to the satisfaction of the local board. 1. The registrant must be "employed in the production for market of a substantial quantity of those agricultural commodities which are necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest. 2. “The production for market , of a substantial quantity’ of agricultural commodities should be. measured in terms of the average I - —— I QUICK RELIEF with WOOLLEY'S OINTMENT from CHEST A THROAT COLDS MUSCULAR A LEG CRAMPS A warming, soothing ointment for the relief of congestion and colds by a counter irritant 35c at your drug store 60c

annual production per farm worker which is marketed from a local average farm of the type under consideration. The production of agricultural commodities for consumption by the worker and his family, or traded for subsistance purposes, should not be considered as production for market. Production which is in excess of that requir- • | ed for the subsistence of the farm i families on the farm under consideration should be considered as production for market.” The state director observed that “that still doesn't give the complete picture,” and he added that a registrant, to be eligible for agricultural deferment, must also meet the requirements in the section of the regulations defining necessary employment. He quoted as follows: I “A registrant’s employment in industry or other occupation, service in office, or activity in study, research, or medical, scientific, or other endeavors shall be considered to be necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest only when all of the following conditions exist: “1. The registrant is, or but for a seasonal or temporary interrupi tion would be, engaged in such aci tivity; "2. The registrant cannot be rei placed because of a shortage of I persons with his qualifications or j skill in such activity; and I “3. The removal of the regis- | trant would cause a material loss of effectiveness in such activity.” Col. Summers stressed that deferments based on agricultural and other civilian occupations are not permanent. “They are issued for one year or less," he said, “and local boards have instructions to classify a registrant as available for service whenever the cause for his deferment ceases to exist.” —— Trade in a Good Icwr. — Decatu

Five Navy Men Die As Plane Crashes Engine Trouble Is Blamed For Crash Indianapolis, Jan. 14 — (UP) — Engine trouble caused a small military plane to crash on a takeoff yesterday and kill five men, authorities believed today. The plane was identified as a twin-engined navy Beech'raft. Naval officials here and at Columbus, 0., said the victims would not be identified until jext of kin were notified. Police said clothing fragments on the bodies indicated that the men were naval personnel. The plane• took off from Wier Cook municipal airprt a few minutes before it plowed into the field in southwest suburban Indianapolis. The victims' charred bodies were found in a nearby field, and wreckage of the plane was scattered over a wide area. The crash occurred only half a mile from an airport runway. The plane first hit a corn field, dug a deep trench, hopped across a road and burst into flames in another field. • No one could be found who saw the plane crash, Weir Cook airport was told by an unidentified plane which radioed while circling for a landing. The pilot saw the flames but did not see the plane fall. Several passerby also saw the flamies. They ran to the scene and threw damp earth and vegetation over the burning bodies. The theory of engine trouble was given credence after a farmer living near the crash scene said he heard a plane engine sputter just before he heard a crash. Farmer Don Seerley said he heard the sputtering engine while milking his cows.

Five Identified Columbus, 0., Jan., 14 — (UP)—The naval air station at Port Columbus today released the names of five navy men killed when their plane crashed at Indianapolis yesterday. The victims were identified as: Lt. (JG) J. M. Richards, Columbus, the pilot; G. A. Akeroyd, Columbus, chief aircraft electronic man; J. A. Short, Lancaster, 0., aviation mechanic; R. D. Newberry. Columbus, aviation mechanic; and J. IE. Hosso, Brewster, 0., aviation ordnance man. Port Columbus officials said the men were members of» a ground control approach team. They had flown a twin-engined navy Beechcraft to Indianapolis from Port Columbus to give a demonstration of ground control approach landing. Five-Year Sentence For Evading Taxes Indianapolis.

Terre Haute Votes For Parking Meters Terre Haute, Ind., Jan. 14 — (UP) — One of Indiana’s biggest cities today planned to follow the lead of smaller communities and install parking meters.

Ask Court Order To Halt AT&T Monopoly Civil Anti-Trust Suit Filed Today Washington, Jan. 14 — (UP) — The government today asked federal court to compel the American Telephone & Telegraph company to sell its manufacturing subsidiary, Western Electric Company, Inc. The request was made in a civil anti-trust suit filed by the justice department in federal court at Newark, N. J. Western Electric manufactures equipment for the A. T. & T. The government charges that A. T. &- T’s control of Western Electric constituted a monopoly. The government said the monopoly operated in this way: Western Electric manufactures equipment for A. T. & T. In turn A. T. & T. controls all of the Bel' Telephone companies which buy Western Electric equipment. Therefore. the government said, A. T. T. controls the Bell companies’ only source of supply. The department said that this absence of competition in the manufacture and sale of telephone equipment has resulted in higher telephone rates throughout the country. Besides seeking separation of Western Electric from the Bell system, the suit also asked that the court order the dissolution of Western Electric into three separate competing manufacturing concerns. The complaint said that Western Electric manufactures and sells more than 90 percent of all telephone equipment sold in the United States and that the remaining 10 percent is produced under its direct control.

Mail Sack loaded With Money Missing $75,000 In Cosh In Missing Sack Chicago, Jan. 14.—(UP)— A mall pack containing between $75,000 and SBO,OOO in cash, for delivery to the federal reserve bank in Chicago, was reported missing by postal inspectors today. J. Harold Marks, chief postal inspector here, said the money was mailed at Waukesha, Wis., late yesterday. It was consigned to a X'oo line mail train which left Waukesha at 6:30 p.m. and had been scheduled to arrive in Chicago last night at 9:30. He said guards were waiting at the railroad station to take the money to the bank, but it was not on the train. "We don't know yet whether it ever got on the train," he said. Marks said the money was in “cold cash." He said he had sent postal agents to search all stations at which the train, a fast mail, stopped enroute to Chicago. The train and the station here were searched thoroughly until midnight last night without uncovering a trace of the bag or money. "It seems to have vanished into thin air," Marks said. He said he did not know what bank sent the money, and that there was no receipt. He said he had learned from the Waukesha postmaster that the shipment had been received at the postoffice there for shipment to Chicago. He said it was a regular postoffice shipment by regular mail. ’ But whether the money ever actually was put on the train, Marks said he bad been unable to determine. Marks said he had notified police and government agencies ail along the route. He said he had ordered postal agents J. A. Thompson, Springfield. 111., M. H. Alberts, East St. Louis, 111., and Frank McGee. Milwaukee, to drop other cases and participate in the search. Toledo Mayor To Be Notre Dame Speaker South Bend. Ind..

Russia, the department said in a statement, has "seriously weakened the effectiveness of the United Nations" by her obstructionism. The state department asserted that collective action by free nations is necessary because of dissention in the United Nations, growth of fear and insecurity in the world, and Soviet refusal to cooperate to eliminate causes of fear. The statement was released after diplomatic informants had disclosed that the seven nations working on the North Atlantic pact hoped to bring five more strategically situated nations into the secret talks.

The five nations are Denmark, Norway, Portugal, Iceland and Ireland. the treaty now is being negotiated by the United States, Canada, Britain, Belgium, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.

willipg or unwilling associates has seriously hampered the activities of the United Nations,” the department said. “The end result, if not the aim, of the Soviet program has been to weaken the effectiveness of the UN to shake the confidence of many people in it as an instrument of peace. "The resujiant widespread fear and uncertainty have created a situation in which forward-looking governments have begun to seek additional means of preserving the peace in keeping with the principles of the United Nations charter.” If left unchecked, the department said, fear and insecurity could paralyze the recovery efforts Os western Europe. It said that security must be restored if world recovery is to progress. New Angle Devised Big Rapids Mich.
