2 The Newi-Review, Roieburg,
Winter Arrival
Poses Problem
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-WP)
Winter arrives at 11:24 eastern
standard time tonight, bringing
with It the shortest day in the
year.
But which day; today or to
morrow? Time experts aren't
sur
The fellow who checks on time
for the U. S. Naval Observatory
says he's willing to bet today is
the shortest ot the year In the
eastern time belt.
But for the records, he's play
ing it close. He'll just say today
and tomorrow will fa" the shortest
days.
There will be only a few sec
onds difference and it would take
hours of tedious calculating to de
termine which day actually will
be the shortest.
The difficulty Is this:
Winter arrives at the moment
the earth has Its northern axis
tilted at its maximum away from
he sun. This moment occurs each
year around Dec. 21. The exact
moment this year Is 11:24 o'clock
tonight, eastern standard time.
That is so close to midnight
about half of the effect of the
factors that- create the shortest
day of the year falls on the 21st
and half on the 22nd in the east
ern time belt.

again be challenged by anti
democratic forces.
"For there is one thing we
never will accept, and that is
totalitarian slavery."
Can't Ba Dont Alone
President Truman said that "If
man could achieve self govern
ment and kinship with his God
throughout the world, peace
would not tremble in the con
stant dread of war."
"Mankind is exhausted from
the ordeal of conflict," Mr. Tru
man went on. "All men are sick
of bloodletting and hunger, and
weary of the troubles suflered for
so many years. If we could
mobilize world opinion among all
men who walk the earth, there
would never be another war.
"This we can not do alone. For
the earth is deeply divided be
tween free and captive peoples.
There Is no appeal to the brother
hood of men who live in dally fear
of the concentration camp. . , ."
The president said that by gen
erous sharing of material goods
the United States has restored
to many peoples faith in them
selves, in freedom, and In certain
triumph of confidence over fear.
He added:
"Just as long as we continue
to face our world responsibilities
with the courage and realism we
have already shown, we shall
deserve the right to hope and
work for lasting peace."
The president said that soda'
progress must not be forgotten in
the search for peace and security.

The engineer and conductor of
Illinois Central train No. 81 walk

the three have given as No. 81

The girs are Vivian Miller, 12,
Gloria, 11 and Lorraine, 4.
They received 26 crisp new $1

neer from Centralis, III., and O.
H. Kennedy, conductor from Du
quoin, 111.
The ston was arranged by an
other trainman, R. J. Brennan of
East St. Louis, 111.
"At night, regardless of time,
the girls answer our unfailing
toot of No. 81's whistle wllh flash
lights," Brennan said. "When the
trainmen notice the lights are
dim. they drop off fresh batter.
ies on the next trip. This means
a lot to you when you've pulled
out late and feel sorta grumpy."
Yesterday the girls, daughters
of Mr. and Mrs. Hoyd (J. Miller,

of a Hungarian citizen from the
country.
Charges Branded False
The State department said all
the circumstances confirmed the
belief that the charges are "whol
ly false and that the Hungarian
government is motivated by ul
terior purposes in this affair."
Although the U.S. protest was
directed only to the case of Vo
geler, a department spokesman
said that It applies also to the
arrest Jast week ot Israel Jacob
son, head of the American Joint
distribution committee's Hungar
ian office.
The protest note declares that
American citizens are no longer
"free to transact normal busi
ness, or to visit, in Hungary with
out suffering surveillance, arbi
trary arrest and other intoler
able molestations at the hands of
the Hungarian police authorities
and other Infringements of the
rights."
Effective immediately, It was
announced, the passports of Am
ericans traveling to Europe will
be stamped "not good for travel

According to Carl Binder, Elk
ton, president of the Umpqun
Valley Milk Producers associa
tion, the request is justified be
cause local producers are operat
ing in a high cost area. Local
distributors claim county produc
ers are no more effected by high
cost of production than other
milk farmers in the state.
Binder said yesterday milk
which would ordinarily he deliv
ered to local distributors is not
being wasted. He said arrange
ments have been made by the
association to send this milk to
Grants Pass for processing into
cheese. He said the association's
decisions will be followed by
most county producers. The as
sociation claims membership in
this area totals PP. percent of the
milk producers eligible.

night's incident with the attempts
on the fteuthers' lives.
"No Scire Attempt"
There is "no doubt" of It, ac
cording to Inspector Joseph A.
Krug of the police special investi
gation squad.
Krug said he was convinced It
was a deliberate attempt to blow
up the building
"The dynamiter knew what he
was about and he meant busi
ness," Krug said. "This was no
scare attempt."
One long-held theory has been
that a vengeful conspiracy Is
afoot against the Reuthers and
the union.
An anonymous call to a De
troit newspaperman led to what
was at first a vain police search
at the union headquarters.
Later two union employes came
upon the wrapped sticks of ex
plosive, tied up in gay red and
white Christmas paper.
The destructive package lay at
an outside stairway not far from
the adjacent General Motors re
search laboratory.
Had there been a explosion,
lives might have been lost, police
said. A number of workers were
in the G, M. laboratory.
Inspector Albert Langtry ot tne
police scientific laboratory said
there was enough dynamite to
have destroyed the three-story
brick UAW building.
It was prepared, Krug said, by
"someone with a lot of experi
ence with dynamite.
Fuses Barely Short Of Goal
Two 90-inch fuses had been
lighted but had gone out. OnJ
burned to within an eighth of an
inch of its end. One inch remained
of the other, Krug said.
Reporter Jack Pickering of the
Detroit Times said he had re
ceived a telephone call about S
p. m. that dynamite had been
placed at the "back door" of the
UAW building.
The caller did not identify him
self.
In intermittent rain and murk,
police made a search of the
Grand boulevard-Woodward ave
nue area containing both the
UAW headquarters and General
Motors' main office building. But
they found nothing.
Toward 11:30 p. m. Jack
Krajnik, 35, a maintenance man,
and George Thomas, 58, night
janitor, came upon the explosive.
One detonator was detective,
Krug said. An overly tight taping
also mav have prevented a firing.
