AMBASSADOR PROTESTS RUSS PRESS ATTACK WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 (UP) Lt. Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, United States Ambassador to Moscow, has bitterly denounced as "wanton libel" a Soviet atricle which compared President Truman with Adolph Hitler. In a sternly-worded letter to Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov last Saturday, Smith said that for the last eighteen months of diplomatic duty in the Soviet Union he had been obliged with deep regret to witness in the Soviet press "half-truths, distortion of the truth, and utter falsehoods about my country and my government." "I have tried to overlook this Incendiary press campaign feeling that to make an issue 'with the statements would be simply trying to add fuel to the hatred of my country which the Soviet press is apparently trying to kindle," Smith said. He added that an article by Boris Golbatov published in the Soviet Literary Gazette was so wantonly libelous in its personal attacks on the President of the United States that "I cannot allow it to pass without protest. It has thoroughly shocked me." "I cannot recall that Dr. Goebels (Joseph Goebels,- the Nazi propaganda minister) of unsavory memory even at the height of our common struggle against Nazi Germany ever stooped to so great a vilification and bitter attack such as Golbatov has made against thehead of a friendly and allied nation." PLAYERS PREP FOR MULE GAME The final "workout" by both teams for the big game of the week tomorrow night is expected to be held tonight by the jaycee Bums and the, Kraft Cheeses. Bob Herr is reported" to be even more determined than ever to make a good showing after the way Dizzy Dean went yesterday after coming out of retirement. There are rumors that the Jaycees are planning a big surprise when their- i new shortstop takes over after ' Tom Grayson wears out, but it could be that the Jaycees will get the surprise. The Kraft line-up is much the same as the one that played in the Linton city softball league during the season, when they were one of the better teams in the circuit. On the other hand, the Jaycee line-up is just a guess. The big thing is going to be to get the guys who have been picked to show up for the game. ' 1 Tom Grayson, chairman of the game committee, said today that all members of the Jaycees should come out to the 4-H Club Fairgrounds Tuesday night to help handle the game. The proceeds of the game will go to the ' civic activities and charity fund cf the Junior Chamber of Commerce. The game will start at 7:30 p. m.

MERCHANTS WIN PLAY-OFF SERIES game yesterday in the play-off series with the Rassel Taverns of Terre Haute and will meet the Fairview Dodgers in a two-best-of-three series for the Western Indiana League championship. The Merchants defeated the Taverns 3-2 in an eleven-inning contest before the largest crowd of the season. Young Bill Shipman and Radke hooked up in a pitchers' battle that kept the crowd on edge the entire, game. The Merchants broke the ice in the second inning when they scored one run on two walks and a sharp single by Walters, Merchant centerfielder. Rassells evened the count in the fourth when two errors and a base on balls and a hit scored one run. The visitors took a 2-1 lead in the sixth when they collected three hits. The Merchants, fighting back, evened the count at 2-all in the eighth when Griffith, batting for Shipman, walked and scored on an error and a single. - Billy Taylor relieved Shipman on the mound and held the Terre Haute club to one hit and no runs for three innings. In the eleventh and darkness coming on fast, Radke was nicked for a hit by Thewlis, then McGarvey walked and Keene was safe on an error, loading the bags. Mgr. Cartwright then pulled Radke and put Wilson on the hill, who got Thewlis at the plate on a fielder's choice. He then walked Griffith, sending McGarvey across the plate with the winning run. The Merchants will travel to Clinton next Sunday, when the first game of the championship battle will be staged.

JEWISH GANG BLASTS HAIEA POLICE OFFICE JERUSALEM, Sept. 29 (UP) The Jewish underground blew up the five-story Raifa police station today, killing ten British and Arabs and wounding fiftyfour persons in the worst blast to wreck Palestine since the King David Hotel bombing four months ago. Responsible quarters attributed the attack to the Stern gang, which was believed to be acting for reprisal for the seizure of the refugee ship, the Respite, on Saturday, and the deportation of 350 Jews to Cyprus. Dead in the greatest blast in battle'-scarred Haifa's history are three British . policemen, three Arab policemen, three Arab civilians, and one unidentified person who was blown to bits. The dynamiters drove a truck to the security fence around the building and a twelve foot crane lifted the barrel containing the dynamite over the fence. When it :was released, it rolled against the building and exploded. , The blast wrecked the building, scattering fragments of glass for hundreds of yards, and shaking the city. Shops along the Kingsway, main thoroughfare in the city, were wrecked, and looting caused damage estimated in the millions of dollars. A United Press correspondent reporting from Haifa wrote, "I visited the hospital where the dead and injured were taken, and I saw bodies of both dead and living that had limbs blown off. ' "The remarkable thing was the number of persons fatally injured by the glass from the broken windows. Most of those killed were killed by either flying glass or concussion" CONSUMER TO PAY COAL COSTS CLUB IS TOLD ; DETROIT, Mich.; ' Sept. 29 ' (UP) Fred's. McConneiC'president of the ;NatioW Coal :Assoelation) said todav that the .consumer must pay most "if not .all of the added cost of mining coal.'.' He told the Detroit Economics IClub that labor-saving machinery had brought a 38 per cent ' reduction in the number of men needed to mine an equal amount !of coal" from 1918 to 1945, but I that labor costs rose 75 per cent ' in the same period. The idea that the coal industry should and can absorb the increased cost rising from the new wage agreement with the United Mine Workers is "based on the most fallacious kind of economic reasoning," McConnell said. He denied that the industry's wage contract with the miners in which the industry agreed not to sue for damages as a result of a wildcat strike "violates the TaftHartley law" but conceded that it might be a circumvention of the spirit of the law. BANKERS TOLD THAI BANKS ARE STRONGER ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 29 (UP) The American banks on the whole are in a stronger position "than perhaps ever before," an economist told the 73rd annual convention of the American Bankers Association today. Joseph Stagg Lawrence, vicepresident and economist of the Empire Trust Company, of New York, warned, however, that it was doubtful "whether our system could withstand another depression of the magnitude of the one from 1929 to 1933." Lawrence asserted that there was "not the remotest chance" that long-term securities would collapse in price or that money rates would rocket to the rate that existed in 1920.

Golden Arrows Lose To Garfield Eagles, 19 - 0 Sullivan's Golden Arrows lost failed to convert, their third game of the season .' Arrows Weakened, and their first start in the West- The Arrows were weakened em Indiana Conference race considerably during that drive when the Garfield Eagles beat ! when Kaiser and Scully were them at Memorial Stadium Fri- both forced to leave the game, day night by a score of 19 to 0. i Laskey was also out of the line

The Arrows Friday night were a far different team than the one that topped the Washington Hatchets the week before. The locals couldn't work up a serious threat to the Eagle goal line until 'the fourth quarter, and that drive ended on the Garfield 9 as Locke intercepted Carter's pass and ran the ball back to the Eagle 16. In that drive, Sullivan picked up two of the first three downs the team could manage for the night. The first Eag.e score was made on running plays, but the last two were set up by passes which could have , been knocked down had the Arrows been a little more alert on pass defense. Eagles Score Early. -1 The Eagles started off like thef meant business. After Brodie had punted to the Eagle 37 early in the first quarter, the Eagles marched all the way to get out in front. Locke skirted the Arrows' left flank for - 31 yards and a first down on the Arrow 32. Then, after Frew had fumbled and recovered, Wernecke went around the right end for 23 yards, and the Eagles were knocking at the Arrow goal line. Morgan hit center for a yard, but the officials caught one of the Eagles doing a little holding and that cost the Garfield bunch fifteen big yards. That put the ball on the Arrow 20. Locke skirted left end again . for five yards, and threw an incompletd pass. Then it was the Arrows' turn. A lineman played a lttlie too rough for . the officials and they gave Garfield, back those fifteen yards, and the Eagles were on the Arrow 5. It took four plays at the center of the' Arrow line to get those' five yards, but the Eagles finally managed when Locke crashed through center.

The drive bogged down; when Brodie failed to connect on three passes. He punted to the Garfield 27 just before the quarter ended. Late in the second period, the Eagles added to their margin when they drove 28 yards for a score. It all started when a Brodie pass was intercepted by Frew on the Arrow 35 and returned to the Sullivan 28. Frew passed, but it was too long for Owens, the intended receiver. Frew threw another, but Brodie batted it down. The next oi!e was good, with Owens catching the ball and the Eagles were on the Arrow 2, from where Frew went over through center for the score. The conversion was no good as Brill failed to get his kick through the goal posts. The third quarter was just 12 minutes of futile playing as far as either team, was concerned. Neither side could get a drive under way. In fact, the entire period was one, two, three, kick for both sides. Eagles Score Again.

Brodie passed incomplete, but then he hit Hilgediek for no gain. Carter passed to Pinkston for six yards and the Arrows punted. Brodie's kick was taken by Simon on the Garfield 46 but he was hit hard and fumbled. Sevier fell on the ball and the Arrows took over. Carter passed incomplete, and Brodie picked 'up a yard on a quarterback reverse. Carter hit Pinkston for five yards, then tossed to Hilgediek for eight and a first down for the Arrows. Me- !

Mil Carter failed to connect on a pass, and the Arrow drive ended when Locke picked off another Carter pass on the 9 and returned it to the Eagle 16. Locke Intercepts. Locke went through left guard for 29 yards, but Wernecke fumbled and Raley recovered for the Arrows on the Eagle 45. The last chance for the Arrows to score failed when Locke again caught one of Carter's passes. The Eagles racked up 11 first downs to the Arrows' three. Both teams did a lot of passing, with the Eagles tossing 13, hitting on four. The Arrows tried 21 passes and connected on eight. Three were caught by the Eagles. Carter threw nine passes for the Ar rows. He hit on three, but had two intercepted. Brodie tried thirteen and made good on five. One of his passes was intercepted.

TRUMAN AND CONGRESS MEET IN CONFERENCE ON STOP GAP AID TO EUROPE President Hopes To Get Aid For Europe Without Calling Special Session Of Congress If Possible. WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.

10 a. m. EST. STATE FARMERS STICKING TO FAMILY FARMS INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 29 (UP) Hoosier farmers are a steady lot, an Indiana authority on history said today. Howard Peckham, secretary of the Indiana Historical Society, said that almost a thousand Hoosier families own their own farmland that was taken up by their ancesters a hundred years or more ago and had been handed down through the generations. Six months after it was announced that "appropriate recognition" would be given such Indiana families, the state Historical seciety had received the names of 706 eligible farm owners. "The proposal," said Peckham, "was not believed to be in such proportions, but the co-operation of the Purdue University County Agriculture agents has brought to light the large number . of Hoosier families who have stayed on the land that 'their ancestors once owned." The Historical Society secretary said that the largest number of such farmers were in Wayne County where hundreds of Quacker families moved from the ;East and settled around Richmond. Earlham College, in Richmond recently celebrated its centennial. SCHOOLS AID SHADES DRIVE INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 29. (Special) Nickels and dimes and in many cases more of Indiana's young people today had put new life into the statewide public subscription campaign to"SayetheShades." Governor Ralph F. Gates professed price and appreciation of what he termed "the spontaneous and generous spirit of citizenship" displayed by 700,000 Indiana students in "the schools' section of the Shades campaign. Although distribution of supplies is just being completed, early reports indicate 100 per cent participation from such widely-scattered communities as Culver, Anderson, Raub, Rossville, Bloomington, Logansport, Beech Grove and Evansville. Leading the list of schools which have completed their campaign was little Waveland, township school only a few miles distance from the Shades. The Waveland total, $107.30, represented 100 per cent participation by the students. HOOSIERS GET . BOGUS $20 BILLS INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 29 (UP) Treasury agents warned Hoosiers today that a gang of counterfeiters are passing bogus $20 bills in Indiana.

PRICE THREE CENTS

Secretary of State George C. Marshall came here from the United Nations General Assembly at New York to outline the desperate European food situation which he said must be relieved before the end of the year if the continent is to avert "intolerable hunger." Need $500,000,000. It was generally understood that Mr. Truman believes a minimum of $500,000,000 in stop-gap aid is needed to tide Europe over the next four months. France and Italy are the principal countries in need of such aid. One of the major problems to consider is how to provide immediate aid for Europe without forcing domestic prices higher. The emergency aid is separate from the long-range Marshall plan for European recovery. Two Questions. ' President Truman expects the meeting to produce the answer to two questions: 1. If he decides that a special session of Congress is necessary, how far will the Republican leaders in Congress be willing to support the controls the administration believes necessary to meet tKe crisis? 2. If the program can proceed without a special session, will the Republicans co-operate with what the administration believa3 necessary, without trying to make political issue out of it? ,"Ilas Open MihiL Mr. Truman has said' that he has kept an open mind on the problem' of the ,, special session and that he wants it;only if no other solution can be found.

' " DUGGER TIES HATCHETS, 12-12 Dugger's Bulldogs played the Washington Hatchets to a 12 to 12 tie last Friday night, in a game that saw the Hatchets come from behind twice to tie the count. The Dogs scored first in the second quarter when the Dugger outfit climaxed a drive by scoring when Patton took a lateral from Cornelius to go five yards for the touchdown. The Hatchets tied the game up in a hurry. Schiffli, who caused Sullivan a lot of trouble the week before, broke through the Bulldog line for fifty yards, only to be downed on the Dugger 3-yard line when Arnold stopped him. Then Murray tossed to Schiffli in the end zone for the tying score. The Bulldogs went ahead again in the opening minutes of the last quarter when Brewer passed to Swan. The Dogs held this lead until late in the game, when Murray passed to Rigney in the end zone to tie the game up. The Hatchets almost won the game in the dying seconds of the game when they started an aerial attack, but it failed to win the game when Cornelius intercepted a MXirray pass in the end zone as the whistle ended the game.
