Aschenbrenner, as a member of the board of directors of the National Education Association, spoke of his experiences and of the efforts of communists to in filtrate within the ranks of the teaching profession. These ef ports were successfully and de cisively beaten down during the recent convention in Boston, but, the speaker said, they were not whipped. Aschenbrenner said there was no reconciliation between de mocracy and communism and the teachers that advocate to talitarism should not be permit ted within the class room, wheth it be the elementary grade or the colleges. Democracy, the speaker said, is a way of life rather than a form of government and as such has respect for the minority. After being soundly whipped on the subject of communism the advocates of that system brought up the racial question in order to create a conflict among the teachers. This ques tion, Ascnenbrenner stated, is one that will take many years to solve. The N.E.A., said the speaker, comprising nearly a half million persons is attempting to do a job for the children. The teach ers need adequate salaries, must be properly trained and kept that way. Etlers Rites Saturday Fun eral services for Andrew E.

Carter and -Dickering Dick," 12lh street carlot op erator, was freed in circuit court here Thursday of a charge of re ceiving and concealing stolen property In a directed verdict oy the jury on instructions of Cir cuit Judge George R. Duncan. When all the evidence was in Judge Duncan ruled that the state had admitted no evidence in coroboration to show that Carter knew the alleged piece of stolen property, a ear radiator was on his premises. Bruce Williams, appearing as counsel for Carter, set up the contention of lack of corobora tion in arguing the motion for a directed verdict in chambers S and also that there was no dence to show that Carter concealed stolen property, that where the radiator was found I it could have been put there by anyone of a large number of people without either Carter's knowledge or consent.

Waterfront Blast, Newport Newport, Ore., Sept. 15 (P An unexpiainea wawnrom plosion among closely jammed fishing boats today sent one to the bottom of the harbor and damaged three others. No one aboard was critically hurt. The 40-foot Canadian fishing boat Cluny, with two men sleep ing aboard, was shattered and caught fire. The blast apparent ly originated in that vessel. Its skipper, A. R. Rogers of Van couver, B.C., jumped uninjured into the water and swam to safe ty. His crewman, Ian G. Forbes, Canadian of undetermined ad dress, suffered second and third degree burns before he got into the water. His condition in a To ledo hospital was reported not serious. The adjacent 32-foot fishing boat Grayhall, skippered by Lyle Joy of Portland, burned to the waterline. Joy was aboard but escaped unhurt.

Lewis Insists (Continued from Page 1) Soft coal operators assembled at White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., for negotiations with Lewis, said it was possible that the min ers, now idle under the union's three-day week, would not re turn to the pits Monday. Lewis, who demanded that the operators continue their pay ments to the health and welfare fund despite the fact the union's contracts with them have ex pired, said that failure to pay could "cause reactions deterrent to the constructive progress of the industry." Mine owners regarded Wit statement as a strike threat. More than 87,000 workers al ready are idle in other Indus tries. Of these, almost 46,000 are on strike and 41,000 have been forced out of work. Anti-Trust Suit f Continued from Page II The action in New York re quests a court order requiring A. and P. to separate its manu facturing and processing busi ness from its buying and selling business and to separate its pre sent seven retail store divisions into seven independently owned retail food chains. The justice department pro poses to dissolve the Atlantic Commission company, A. and P.'s wholesale purchasing and sales agent in the produce mar kets. To Make Seven Independents Under the proposed break-up of the present national chain in to seven independent companies, A. and P. itself would not be permitted to own more than one such division, probably covering about 800 stores, in contrast to the 6000 retail outlets it now op erates. The department point out, however, that the final form of the proposed dissolution would be a mutter for the court to de termine. McGrath described the A. and P. system as "the largest enter prise in the food industry in the United States," with annual re tail sales amounting to about Sl.nOO.000.000 or about 6 4 per- cent of the national total of re- tail food store sales "The suit," McGrath said in a statement, "is designed to elimi nate the abuse by A. and P. of its mass buying and mass selling power."
