Sheriff Grover Baggett said there was a report that a man had been killed in the gunplay, but he said he had been unable to find the body or learn the name of the reported victim. The mine, owned by six brothers. had operated with non-union workers in defiance of a UMW strike and despite the activity ol roving bands of pickets who reportedly patrolled some five other non-union mines in the area. Baggett said the Preskitt brothers, operators of the snail pit had agreed not to reopen today. The Preskitts said only yes terday that they intended ta keep their mine open “because this mine is our way of making a living." They mounted armed guards around the pit. A few scattered shots were fired early yesterday and Baggett said his report showed that they "apparently came from a truck loaded with coal.’’ The big outbreak came later in

The special committee had previously been appointed to survey the park needs and report their findings, which they did at tonights meeting. After a thorough discussion it was decided to plow and re-seed the ball diamond, improved the parking area, install more lights, prepare a croquet court, clean the ditch, remove some dead and dying trees, plant some young trees, install protection for same young trees now growing in the park, paint and wire the refreshment stand, plant some flower* and generally beautify the entire park and equipment. Not count ing labor, most of which will be donated by interested persons this project will cost the Roachiale Lions Club some $300, according to present estimates. When this program is complet’d, Roachdale and community will have a park and play ground that will be a thing of beauty and a benefit to all who wish to use its facilities and enjoy its accomodations.

HARRY IN MISSOURI limousine and drove eight miles to the Sheraton Hotel where he spent the night. The President was scheduled this morning for a walk, an early breakfast with Masonic officials, and then installation of the Misouri grand lodge officers beginning at 9 a m. After the ceremony the President will fly to Kansas City, arriving there at 2 p. ni. Th«- obvious purpose of Mr. Truman’s visit to St. Louis was strictly fraternal. But the Masons at the airport were outnum-fc-ered by the men who run Democrat e politics in the chief executive’s home state. Among the leading people in the floodlighted welcome were John Nungle, Democratic National Committeeman, and James Finnegan. Internal Revenue Collector for St. Louis. The Masons fitted in. Before going to bed, the President chatted privately with Mayor Joseph H. Durst who headed tile Truman-Barkley clubs of this section during the 1948 campaign. The main purpose of Mr Truman’s visit to Missouri was the Masonic business and tribute to Boyle. But underneath, it was a small sample of what he intends to do next year when he will attempt to enlarge the Democratic majority in the House and Senate. STEEL DEADLOCK Cyrus S. Ching sent two of his ablest assistants W’illiam Mar rolls and Peter Seitz- to sit in the industry’s key conferences here between CIO President Philip Murray and U. S. Steel Corp. He sent 33 other mediators to assist in negotiations elsewhere. Hopes for a peaceful settle-

ment rose and fell alternately during five hours of negotiations yesterday, but in the end both sides were practically back where they started. Murray and U. S. Steel Vice President John A. Stephens were to meet again "sometime’’ today, furnishing at least a ray of hope that an agreement might breached before the strike dead-

line.

Prospects of a compromise settlement rocketed when U. 3. Steel, the Industry’s patternmaker. offered to pay the full 10-cent an hour pension-insur-ance plan recommended, provided employes also contributed. However, Murray rejected the proposal as a ’•disguised” pay cut and reiterated his demand for an entirely company-finance 1

plan.

“Tlie industry is determined to bring about a nationwide strike on the issue of contributory pen- j sions and social insurance," Murray said. “This is a false issue deliberately raised by the industry us a cloak to conseal its determination to force strike action on the union and on the country." Alter issuing his rejection, Murray countered with a proposed supplemental agreement. It would set up trust funds into which the company would pav 10 cents an hour per worker retroactive to July 16. expiration date of the last contract. The funds would be earmarked for benefit payments after details of the pension and insurance programs were agreed upon.
