A company spokesman said the labor dispute is not the type that can properly "be submitted to a third party. The CKMFL International Union of Electrical Workers immedi--1 ately announced its willingness to j'feo to arbitration when Governors i George M. Leader and Averell ! Harriman of New York came up 1 with the offer Monday. 1 Some- 44.(M0 IUE members have been on, strike at 29 plants since last Oct 17. They want a pay in- t crease. j Westinghouse wants them -to scrap the current contract and accept a five-year pact. Length of the contract is not up for negotiation under terms of the current pact which expires next September. On the loan front, the company reports that about 1250,000 was doled out Monday to workers at six plants. Westinghouse Is offering SIOO to each striker, including some 10,000 Who walked out last Oct. 24 at ten plants where the unaffiliated United Electrical Workers hold bargaining rights. Also eligible are thousands of employes furloughed because of a lack of work. Payments totaled about $168,000 at the Sharon, Pa., plant and about $7,600 at the adjoining Greenville plant. Workers at the huge East Pittsburgh works, which employs about 10,000 will begin receiving the loan today. An official of IUE Local 601 said he doesn’t believe many of the strikers will accept because they have too many debts now. Truck Catches Fire, Drives To Station Francis Bray, driver for a national truck line, fftscovered a fire in the back of his truck around 4:30 this morning while waiting tq deliver groceries to a local market. Not knowing where the fire station was, he immediately went to : the police station and from there, escorted by the police, delivered his fire to the fire department. ' The firemen on duty were quick- ! ly aroused and had everything undJer control after almost a halt an hour of hectic firefighting. The fire had apparently started when a charcoal burner inside the , truck upset and set fire to several boxes and cartons. The truck was not badly damaged but most of the grocery products were quite heavily damaged. If you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad. It brings results.

Senator George To 1 Seek Re-election Setting Scene For Bitter Campaign VIENNA, Ga. (INS) — Sen. Walter F. George (D-Ga.) announced his candidacy for re-election today, setting the scene for what may be Georgia’s hottest political campaign. Former Gov. Herman Talmadge is expected to seek the post that has been held for 33 years by the 77-year-old George in next year’s election. Sen. George’s decision, which has been the big question mark in Georgia politics through the fall, was announced from his law office in his hometown of Vienna. In a brief prepared statement, the president pro tern of the senate said: _ “I will be a candidate for nomination in the Democratic primary -for the office of United States senator next year. “Matters of major importance will come before the second session of the 84th congress and it will be my duty to remain at my post ‘ in Washington to meet the responsibilities placed upon me. I am sure the people of Georgia will expect me to give first attention to their business in Washington.’ Talmadge, 41, heir to the platform eloquence and county machinery of his oft-elected father, is expected to toss a bid for the senate post by springtime. Accidental Tax LONDON (INS) — Should a man have to pay a sales tax on something he got by accident? j That’s the question a Laborite ■ member of Parliament plans to ask j Britain’s Chancellor of the Ex- ■ chequer in parliament. It Is based on the sad story of J. LeGasslcke, ; of Binbrook, who hit a fox with his ear one dark night. LeGasslcke j picked up the dead fox, had the j skin cured and dressed and was I promptly soaked with a 50 percent i sales tax by the tax experts, who ; valued it at $2.80. fc; ■ ! — New York—As early as 450 B.C. ! the Greeks made window panes of ! thin translucent marble, and sanitary facilities.
