(U.B It's not true that as Maine goes so goes the nation in an election. But in a. every election sincelW2 it's been true of Strafford bounty, New Hampshire.

President Truman, Eisenhower, Taft, Kefauver and the other persons entered in the primary may get a pretty good idea how they stand with the voters at this moment Close to Crou-Sectio Strafford county, with a pop ulation of 91,000, lies in the southeastern section of the state It contains three cities. Rochester normally is Republican, Sohv ersworth is Democrajc. Dover, the county seat, goes either way. The three cities and the rural population apparently are the closest thing you eantind to a cross-section oi now American voters are thinking. For instance, in 1916 the vote for president was so close that Charles Evans Hughes; the Re publican candidate, went to bed thinking he had been elected president. He woke up the next morning to learn that Woodrow Wilson had carried California and the presidency. In that elec tion Strafford county stood: For Wilson, 4,040; for Hughes, 4,037. Went for Roosevelt New Hampshire normally is a Republican state. But Frank lin D. Roosevelt carried Straf ford county by a margin of bet ter than three to two against both Alfred M. Landon and Wen dell Willkie. In 1948, Strafford county returns were: Truman, 11,603; xDewey, 9,988. There is a chance Strafford county may lose its reputation as s barometer because the vot ing rules have been changed.

Only four cities reported that they use city equipment and personnel to clear snow from sidewalks. These are Kansas City, Mo.; Montreal, Quebec; Winnipeg, Ont, and Milwaukee. The latter will do it only if the property owner will foot the biU. Tons of Copper 'Mined In Heart of Chicago Chicago (U.R) A Chicago utility firm is "mining" tons of scarce copper and lead in the heart of the city. ' Commonwealth Edison has crews at work ripping out under ground electric cable, laid iO to 40 years ago. .
