man, speak on the changes in farming due to mechanization Thursday night. * The meeting took place in the scout room of the community center at 7 p.m.. and included a question and Answer period. Fewer people are now engaged directly in agriculture, Archbold explained, as a gi eater investment is required. Indirectly, a large number of people are now employed in processing farm products and in manufacturing goods used on the farm,

i he continued.. i Various types of business ownerships were described: the individ- ! ual, partnership, corporation, and the co-operative. The need of a high school education was empha- - sized as well as the desireability i of a college education. The question and answer period was quite interesting and produced requests for information about ! the first farm in Adams county, the early swamps, and even about the soil bank program. The next meeting will be held at the homp of H. H. Krueckeberg , to view his collection ol old coins Thursday, November *ll4. The scouts are asked to mebt at the Community center at 7 pm. to hike to Krueckeberg’s home. DEMOCRTS (Continued trem Pago Ono) sade in Europe. He touched all bases. This is a crisis.” Rep. David S. Dennison (Ohio), one of 10 freshmen GOP congressmen who had called on Eisenhower in advance to give the public “the facts,” said the speech was “forthright.” Rep. John Taber (R-N.Y), top Republican member of the powerful House Appropriations Committee. said “the President was up on his toes (during the broadcast)” and that he was doing everything that should be done to meet the situation. Sen. John L. McClellan (D-AritJ said that while the speech wmw intended to be reassuring, “it was not altogether convincing." - Sen. Albert Gore (D-Tenn.) said the speech was reassuring insofar as it dealt with present-day weapons but added that it was "lacking in definite progyams of action to maintain our security for tomorrow." Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn) was "both pleased and disappointed." He applauded the President’s expression of hope for peace and his desire for greater unity among the North Atlantic Treaty nations. But he said he was “disappointed in his report of achievements and plans.” Kefauver said the nation needed a secretary of science at full cabinet level rather than a new presidential advisor.

Noll was fired July 12 as head of the division when examiners discovered the shortage.

The chief stated that Death has already been punished severely and that, while justice demands disciplinary action, the justice should be tempered with fairrtess, good judgment and a little mercy. Anderson’s statement echoed the sentiments of chief Borders. Death himself did not make any statement during the hearing. The board of works, composed of Mayor Robert Cole, city attorney De Voss and city councilman Norbert Aumann, has the power to take what disciplinary action they deem advisable. This could be a temporary suspension and a period of probation or a permanent removal from the police force with an accompanying loss of pension privileges. Death has been on the force for 10 years.
