New Delhi, India, April 4 UP) The chances of favorable recep tion to Britain's freedom pro posals were kept alive today b the entry of Gen. Sir Archibald P. Wavell Into the negotiations and by evidences that the two major political elements, the Moslem league and Congress party, were given careful second thought to their decisions. Weighing heavily with domi nant Congress party leaders, informed sources believed, was the realization that It would be catastrophic If Sir Stafford Cripps, the British special en voy, left India without a solu tion and the country were left to face possible religious war at time when Japanese Inva sion Is threatened. Some evidence that the pow erful Congress party was giving renewed consideration to the British plan, already rejected conditionally, was seen in the statement of Maulana Abul Ka- lan Azad party president, that the working committee at a two-hour session had considered the situation In Bengal and Assam in view of the warfare approaching from Burma. Mohandas K. Gandhi, inspirer of the nationalist movement who had delayed his departure to give the committee his advice told newspaper correspondents that he still was observing "strict silence," but when asked If he would advise Bengal to follow his policy of non-violence replied: "I would advise the whole world to do so not only Ben gal." Gen. Wavell, commander-in-chief in India, conferred with Cripps, then received Azad and Pandit Nawaharlal Nehru, past president of the Congress party Wavell is expected to see Mohimmed All Jinnah, presi dent of the Moslem league, next week.

Mem ories of the early days of the pioneer Medford firm were re called by this old bottle which bore the Inscription: "Pure filt ered milk. Medford Dairy, J. W. Snider, Prop." It was back in 1908 when John Snider Introduced the then unique method of delivering milk In bottles. The Medford dairy, later known as Snider's dairy, was then located on the old Warner place west of Med ford, and delivery was made by horse and wagon. The bottle. which unexpectedly turned up recently at Snider s, was manu factured by the DeLaval com pany, a firm which has not manufactured bottles for many years. This remarkable age of the bottle Is amazing because of the fact that the 1942-model bottles endure only about seven delivery trips. Mrs. Maude Snider, now head of the Snider Dairy and Produce company, recalls that the first milk bottles made quite a hit with early citizens of this valley. Mr. Snider had already estab lished a reputation for the quality of his product back in 1908 by employing a system which included seven separate filtering steps. These were the days before pasteurizing was fol lowed and milk sanitation laws were unknown here. Snider's are keeping the old milk bottle as a souvenir. ALL LOCOMOTIVES Washington, April 4 UP) The government today froze all finished railroad locomotives, freight and passenger cars In the hands of producers and took full control over future produc tion and deliveries.
