. PITTSBURGH, JDct 3? - W
Heavy, choking fog has blanketed
the western Pennsylvania river
area for the past five days, cli
maxed by the mass deaths in Don
ora, 30 miles up the Ionongahela
river from Pittsburgh.
Residents of Pittsburgh com
plained Thursday that a strong,
unpleasant odor accompanied the
motionless fog- Persons telephon
ing the weather bureau and news
papers compared the smell to
,that of burning rubber.
No ill affects on health condi
tions were reported in Pittsburgh.
The weather bureau- said the
fog has resulted from a "tempera
ture inversion" which permitted
the city's odors to lie near the
ground instead of being dissipated
into the higher air.
The fog condition has been par
ticularly heavy along the river
valleys on the Allegheny, Monon
gahela and Ohio rivers.

Charge Wins
Slavic Support
Br Francis W. Carpenter
PARIS, Oct. SO-CTVThe Slav
bloc injected into United Nations
debate today Prime Minister Stal
in's charges that the western pow
ers are laving the foundations for
P new war. c
lieved this marked the start of- a
new and furious propaganda drive
timed to coincide with the wind
up of the American presidential
campaign.
This view was supported by
British Minister of State Hector
McNeil who said Stalin's state
ment on world affairs "is just an
other propaganda trumpet." Mc
Neil, in a U.N. radio interview,
called the Stalin statement "phon
ey" and said it was timed to come
"bang on the eve" of Tuesday's
election. ,
Kiselev Talks
Kttzma Kiselev, white Russian
delegate, was the first to bring
Stalin's declaration before the U
N. Kieselv spoke during the Balk
ans debate in the general assem
bly's 58-member political commit
tee. He quoted the soviet prime min
ister's words that the American
and British leaders fear agree
ment with Russia lest such an
agreement would undermine "the
position : of the warmongers."
Points te Greece
The white Russian delegate said
the ! "new warmongers" in Greece
should heed also Stalin's declara
tion that a "shameful downfall"
awaits all "warmongers."
- The new soviet move bears out
what most 'delegates now concede
the failure of U.N. leaders to
keep the general assembly from
being influenced by the UJS. elec
tions. One of the main reasons for
transferring the assembly to Paris
was to get away from the presi
dential campaign, but the leaders
now acknowledge it is impossible
to keep the campaign out of the
assembly hall.

Gov. Warren
Asks Truman
'Be Retired9
By B. L. Livingstone
LOS ANGELES. Oct. 30 (JP)-
Gov. Earl Warren brought his vice
presidential campaign to a close
tonight with a demand for a
change of national leadership and
"retirement" of the Truman ad
ministration.
With a Hollywood background
of movie stars and Klieg lights.
Warren said soberly there "is still
a tremendous job to be done" on
living costs, education, health and
housing.
But it is not a time, he told an
audience about three-fourths fill
ing the 8,800-seat capacity of Pan
Pacific auditorium, to resort to

Project Grows
WASHINGTON, Oct 30 -()-
me American airlift flier who
dropped one handkerchief para
chute with candy for German
children really started something.
Today, the air force reports, the
average daily "drop" on that phase
of the airlift to beleaguered Ber
lin Js 1,500 candy laden chutes.
The project is still growing, and
with it the personal problems of
First Lieut. Gail S. Halversen. of
oariana, utan, who first started
dropping the parachutes.
The air force said today the
volume of Halversen's fan mail
from German children and con
tributions of handkerchiefs from
the United States to make the
chutes used In dropping the candy
from airlift planes has become
large. Indeed, he has been forced
to call in a translator and a secre
tary to help him out on his per
sonal project
Civil Defense
Plans Drawn
WASHINGTON, Oct 30 - (JP)
Defense officials said today that
police chiefs have discussed the
feasibily of setting up special
units in municipalities to deal
with riots, sabotage or other ac
tions which might occur In a war.
Such proposals were made, it
was: said, at a meeting here sev
eral weeks ago of police chiefs
with representatives of civil de
fense planning office. However,
civil defense office spokesmen told,
a reporter that no recommenda
tions have been made up to now
by that office. An overall report
to Defense Secretary Forrestal by
the civil defense office is not due
until some time next month.
Forrestal's office said today no
Instructions or requests along that
line have been sent out to munici
palities by him.
It was not a campaign method.
he declared, to which either he or
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey subscribed.
"We would rather lose this elec
tion than to whip up a campaign
designed to whip up group against
group, section against section, man
against man."
Making his last major address of
the campaign in Pan Pacific audi
torium, he came to the end of a
campaign trail he blazed through
33 states from coast to coast since
September 15. .
At Anaheim, he asked "what Is
left" of an administration from
which segments have seceded to
the right and left with the re
mainder unable to agree within
itself.
"Nothing," shouted a small boy.
"That is exactly right" the gov
ernor replied, laughing.
Later he said "he made my
speech for me."
Again, as he has before, Warren
urged continuance of the two-party
system in America.
Football is believed to have ori
ginated in England in the 11th
century.
. . . THERE WAS AN OLD
WOMAN WHO LIVED IN A
SHOE is the first line of the
famous Mother Goose poem.
And you know, that's not such
a peculiar thing as you'd think.
Except for a few far-flung na
tives on desert isles almost ev
erybody I know lives in his
shoes. They're the first things
we look for in the morning and
the last we say goodnight to!
But my point is this: since we
de live in our shoes, isn't it
better to live with a good pair?
You just bet it is! And we've

Draft of Berlin
f Agreements'
MOSCOW, Oct SO--The So
viet press published today what it
said was the text of a Paris draft
agreement on Berlin which Prime
Minister Stalin has declared was
broken by Britain and the Un
ited States.
Tass, official Soviet news agen
cy declared the agreement was be
tween Soviet Deputy Foreign
Minister Andrei Vishinsky and
Juan Bramuglia of Argentina, one
of the six neutrals on the UJf.
security council Tass said -it was
the agreement whose existence had
been denied by UJ3. Delegate
Philip C. Jessup.
(A British foreign office spokes
man in London confirmed for the
first time that there was a draft
agreement between Vishinsky find
Bramuglia, representative of the
six neutrals, but said it never was
approved by the three western
powers and therefore was not
broken by them.
The pertinent section of the
text would have committed the
four powers to:
Remove travel trade and com
munication restrictions between
the western and Soviet zones;
Unify currency in Berlin on the
basis of the German mark of the
Soviet zone. This was to be es
tablished in a meeting of the four
military commanders.

supported by fighter planes, mov
ed into Loudon today under or
ders to put down threatened mob
violence stemming from the
death of a hillbilly singer.
The militia moved in at the
direction o Gov. Jim McCord

Tension had been high here

Watkins said the elder Brewster
swore out a warrant charring the
officers with responsibility "by
chasing Brewster's car, shooting
the tires, causing it to overturn
and causing the death of the
occupant."
Major Warren Giles, of nearby
Athens, led the advance ruard of
troops Into London during the
afternoon. "All is quiet," he sajd.
"There doesn't seem to be any
trouble at all now."

McDonald and Hughes said the
26-year-old , Brewster's automo
bile wrecked after he tried three
times to ram their car.
The two officers waived pre
liminary hearing before Magis
trate Dudley Cates yesterday.
Pending action by the grand
jury the officers are at liberty

demanded at three mass meet
ings but they said they would
not do so unless forced by court
order.

Dear Sirs
We hand you herewith a few reasons why we are casting our vote for you
for sheriff of Llarion County in the coming election, November 2, 19 It 8.
You have had twelve years experience in conduct and management of this
office, from 1932vto 19hU inclusive. During these three terms of office
you proved yourself to be honest, fully capable in every way. Tour book
record, management of office, and "disbursement of funds were Tinvestigat
ed and examined most thoroughly by experienced auditors and in every - -department
you were given a green light and a 100 per cent clearance,
What better record than this can the voters of liarion County ask fort
On account of your long experience in the sheriff's office you probably
know personally more of the law -violators inside and outside of the pen
itentiary than anyone else; this knowledge will certainly most material
ly help to prevent and take care of future law violators, which we have
always in our midst. .
